I looked down at the puddle of blood with little pieces of flesh and hairs floating on the surface. I think I prefer her in this form, but I really need to bring her back in one piece like I promised. 

I waited till Sixer and Fez went out of the room, right out of the basement, to the kitchen. I heard the vending machine fall back in place and I released my magic who swirled around in the room. I focused on the bloody rests before me and snapped my fingers, focusing on my mental image of how she looked when she was alive. The rests were engulfed in my signature blue flames and slowly Shooting's stars form emerged of it with her signature Shooting Star sweater that she wore when she was younger, even if now she is older. I wish I don't have to do that, but I have to hold up my end of the bargain. So what do I have to do next? Let's think about it... I counted with my fingers. To resurrect someone you need 1. powerful magic. I have plenty of magic thanks to Dipper, so it should be enough. 2. The body of the person I need to resurrect. Check. Hum what was the third step again? Ah yes, I need to restore her mind-scape. But for that, I need to be in a place where she feels good... The Attic!

I snapped my fingers again, levitating her body and we went upstairs. As we walked/ floated by the kitchen I saw Sixer and Fez drinking some clear liquid in a glass. I don't even want to know what they are drinking. Fez lifted his head and glanced at us before returning to his drink. Sixer, on the other hand, stared at me, wanting to ask me what I'm doing but not daring. I winked at him and resumed my walking with Shooting star's body following me.

As we were in her room, I snapped my fingers and she was dropped on the floor. I looked down on her body than at the triangle shaped window. I could see the foggy outside, a perfect autumn morning, cold and dark with the crackling sounds of the wind tearing little branches of the trees apart. I summoned a curtain before the window diving the room into darkness. I turned around and locked the door with a little magic, then I snapped my fingers to make some yellows candles appear. I lit them with my blue fire, making everything in the room seem eery with the blue light.

After that, I searched through her craft supplies at the end of her bed to find some chalk. I drew a magical circle on the floor in the middle of the room, between the two beds, with Shooting Star's body in the middle. Once I finished I started drawing a smaller identical magical circle right before the door. I sat down, facing her body and I slowly let my magic engulf her body and myself, making us levitate over the floor.  

I dived in the darkness of the Mindscape, deeper as the time passed in search of one specific Mindscape. She is dead, so her Mindscape should be near here, in the deepness of the Mindscape's Abyss. Suddenly I saw what I searched in this darkness: a pink bubble with her sign on it. Finally, I found you. I went nearer to it and entered it by passing through the pink barrier.

I opened my eyes to see a horrorful vision: Mabelland. Again. Everything is pink, everything seems like it comes from a fantastic, pink, disgusting world. But this time with a lot of cracks everywhere. These cracks are maybe the proof that it slowly fades out of existence. But shouldn't there also be some inhabitants in there like some stuffed animals, as a pink teddy bear or maybe some giant pig? I looked around, having the distinct feeling that I was completely alone in this sickening fluffy world. Maybe they all already faded out of existence... They should represent her memories or her feelings but as she dies, they all got erased... I really should search her faster or her mindscape will be completely disintegrated.  

As I went deeper in her Mindscape I could see gross things like her wanting to have a boyfriend and do some 'things' with him. Then I could see some thoughts that whirled around like 'I will kill Bill!'That is so nice of you. Thanks Shooting Star. Oh this one is even better: 'Why did Dipper kill me?' Maybe because you are crazy, insane, completely out of mind, err I can't find more synonyms. 'It must be because of Bill, he would never do something like that to his sister'Yeah right, it is all because of me and not because of you. Riiiiiight. I walked further into her Mindscape until I saw a tower that could come from a fairy tale (as everything here). 

I went into it and climbed the stairs while calling her: "Shooting Star are you here? Shooooooting Staaaaaaaar!" As I came nearer the top I could begin to hear muffled cries. "Shooting Star is that you?" I stopped before a door and slowly I opened it.

As the door began to move I could see photos all around the room, everywhere, on the walls, on the floor, on the ceiling, on the bed... All of them were photos of her and my beloved Pinetree. She was in the middle of the room, circled by the photos, crouching in her sweater, crying. I could see some of her thought swirling around, like 'Why was I killed?'. She had some sort of gloomy black aura around her.

I opened the doors more and it creaked. She looked up at me, her eyes widening.

"Yellow!" I said trying to sound cheerful.

"You! You... Because of you, I'm dead! You dorito demon!"She shouted at me. The room became slowly completely dark, without any foto and a red angry aura surrounded her.

"That is not true and you know it." She looked at me with murderous eyes and slowly stood up. We stared at each other for a moment and as I was about to speak again, she jumped on me. We both fell on the floor with her on top of me. She tried to scratch out my eyes with her nails. I grabbed her arms with her nails only centimeters apart from my face."Stop!" I shouted, trying to reason her. She seemed like she would stop and then tried again harder to scratch everything she could off my face. 

We rolled over and I was on top of her while she shouted like a savage. "Shut up!" She looked me dead in the eye, only calming a little.

"Mabel! I'm only here because I want to save you!"

"What? You want to save me?" she asked incredulously, while still debating in my arms to free herself from my grasp.

"I have come to ressurect you. I just need you to trust me and follow me willingly." She stopped struggling, but I could feel she still didn't trust me.

"Why would you ever want to help me?"

"Your Grunkles asked me to. They miss you" I could see a thought forming before us: 'Ah, people still love me. I'm needed!' That isn't what I said, but that will do it.

"Okay let's go!" She said suddenly cheerful. She is really weird, even for me.

 I let her go to let her stand up and I stretched my hand to her.

"You need to hold my hand to come back to your body while I perform my magic. Oh and I forgot to mention it, but there is a price to come back in the world of the living." She looked at me in the eyes, took my hand and smiled.

"I don't care as long as I can be with Dipper again." As I would ever let you near him again, you really are an optimistic selfish brat. I put one of my fake smiles on and I nodded, not wanting to say anything. I snapped my fingers and I opened my eyes and I saw her lying on the floor before me.

She looked up at me and tried to stand up, but failed. "You are still too weak to stand up." I stood up, turned around and unlocked the door.

"Where are you going? You can't leave me like this!" I heard her say with her nasty little voice. I didn't answer and went downstairs, while I heard her scream my name.

Once downstairs I went to the kitchen to inform her Grunkles that I did my part of the deal. I saw them sitting limply on two stools before the same but now empty glasses. I still don't want to know what was in them.

"Hello Sixxer and Fez!" I said and they looked up at me with hope in their eyes. "I just came down to say that I, unfortunately, couldn't bring her back." I saw their faces fall down and they looked very down. I laughed at them and they looked completely confused and I could see a bit of anger and deception in Sixxer's eyes. "Ah, you really believed that, did you? You really think, I, Bill Cipher" I pointed on myself "couldn't bring back one simple human?" I smirked at them.

"You mean...?" Stan said.

"She is in the attic." They looked at each other sharing a glance and hastily got up to leave the kitchen. I went between them and the exit. "Don't you seem to forget something?" Ford looked me dead in the eyes, not understanding what I meant. "I did my part of the deal, now hold your part." He just nodded and cleared his throat.

"Thank you, Bill, for bringing her back and in the name of the Pines family, I proclaim that we forgive you." I smiled truly happy to hear this words and stepped out of their way. As Stan rushed by, he muttered a "Thank you" so quietly that if I weren't a demon, I wouldn't have heard it.

I looked after them and how they climbed the stairs up. Once they were on the top, I couldn't see them anymore but I could hear them. They opened slowly the door to the room, as if afraid that a wild animal would flee. I heard them go in and gasp as they saw Mabel, utterly shocked.

"Mabel?" I smirked.
