Escaping Death
Ch. 1
Dipper flipped through the pages of his book feeling completely happy. Knowing that Wendy and Robbie weren't together anymore made him feel he had a chance with her. Outside, his sister Mabel was picking flowers and tossing them in the air, making it rain flowers, as she thought. Her pet pig, Waddles was rolling around in the dirt making him look utterly adorable. Mabel giggled at the sight.
"Oh, Waddles, you're just a big cutie!" She squeaked and clapped her hands. She looked over and saw a dark figure approaching her. It was a man, with dark, ominous eyes, and a serious expression.
"Are you Mabel Pines?" He asked, his voice deep.
"Um... Yes..." Mabel responded, feeling a bit uncomfortable that he knew her name.
"Are you alone? Is your uncle here? Any of his employees?"
"Uh... M- my brother... Are you a friend of Grunkle Stan's?" The man didn't answer. "I'm just gonna go... C'mon-" Before she could say Waddles, the man grabbed her ankle, pulling her to the ground. She screamed as loud as she could, hoping that someone would hear.
Dipper dropped his book when he heard the ear-splitting scream.
"Mabel..." He gasped, "Mabel!" He bolted out of their room, down the stairs and out of the house. The man was dragging Mabel along, to the forest.
"Let go of my sister!" He yelled picking up a rock and throwing it at the person. It got his attention, and the man started towards the boy, still dragging Mabel, who was punching his leg.
Dipper was so frightened he couldn't move. He was shaking madly and was covered with goosebumps. He looked to his side, where several shards of glass lay. Dipper was thankful that smelly old Stan was too lazy to clean it up. With the man getting closer, Dipper had to act fast. He picked up one the shards, and held it up, ready to strike.
When the man reached out to grab Him, he plunged the glass into the man's hand, then pulled it out, and stabbed his neck. Mabel was finally dropped, and the man fell down.
To the twin's surprise, a black liquid drained of their attacker, before he faded into a mist, and spoke.
"We'll find you, Dipper, you and your sister have learned too much. You'll regret taking the book, you'll regret everything." The mist that was once the ominous figure faded, leaving Dipper and Mabel in a state of shock.
