CHAPTER 1: THE TWINS ARE BACK

THIRD PERSON POV

"Dipper! We're almost there!" Mabel squealed excitedly. Dipper was really excited too, getting to continue his searching for book 3's creater. He was determined to find the writer this time. After three years they would finally be able to see their Grunkle Stan, Wendy, and Soos. The twins didn't know if Wendy or Soos would still be working at the Mystery Shack, but they thought Soos would most likely be there and were just hoping Wendy would still be there too.

The bus stopped in front of the old, worn down tourist trap and let the two teens out. What they saw didn't surprise them though. Stanford Pines was scratching his ass with his back facing the twins. Mabel put her hands over her eyes an screamed,"My eyes, I'm blind!" While Dipper laughed histerically. Stan quickly stopped and turned around.

"Kids! I didn't expect you so. . .early."

"Grunkle Stan, it's 2 PM," Mabel said, pushing the nose of the cat on her pink sweater. The cats nose and eyes started going off in an assortment of colors.

"Right. . .right. . .you still have really. . ."

'Don't say weird, don't say weird.'

"Freaky lookin' shirts,' Stan finished.

'Saved it,' he thought.

Mabel laughed.

"Well, with what me an Dipper saw getting off the bus, I don't think either of us have really changed," she told her great uncle. Which was true. Stan looked exactly the same in every way. Mabels facial features were almost identical to when she was younger. The only difference was her being 5''1' and more boobs. She still had her braces and goofy sweaters. She was the same Mabel.

Dipper on the other hand had changed quite a bit. He was now 5''1' like his sister, smooth pale skin, and his hair was a little longer and choppy. His style had changed too. He was wearing black cargo pants with the strings hanging loosly beside his legs, a white shirt with the Cheshire cat grinning while blood dripped from his mouth; in the background were black wire-like tree branches. Black converse and some candy, string, and rubber braceletts adorned him as well. He was also wearing black eyeliner on his waterline, so it wasn't that noticable. It just made the boys eyes pop. Mabel and Dipper may have been twins, but their eyes were different colors. Mabel had hazel eyes while Dipper had blue eyes, which looked green aroud the edges of the iris and pupil.

Stan couldn't believe his eyes.

"Dipper?" Stan asked.

"Yeah?" Dipper replied.

Stan just stood there staring.

Wendy walked out of the Mystery Shack with Tambri, Lee, Nate, Thomas, and Robbie.

"Hey Mabel. Who's your friend? An Where's Dipper?" Wendy asked.

"Um, Wendy," Mabel started, "this is Dipper."

Everyone just stared at Dipper, dumbfounded that this emo teen was once the scared little kid they had at one point hung out with.

Dipper smiled shyly. "Sup guys. Ain't seen ya in a while Wendy."

"Yeah," Wendy sighed and rubbed the back of her head, "why didn't you guys come back the next summer? Really missed you two."

Mabel and Dipper exchanged looks.

"What?" Everyone asked in unison.

Mabel took in a breath of air.

"C'mere Wendy," Mabel told her, walking away from the group. When they were at a distance no one could hear them Mabel stopped.

"What's goin' on?" Wendy asked.

"Well. . ." Mabel started quietly, "Dipper tried to kill himself. . ."
