Chapter 2

Mabel's POV

For two years after we left, dipper was normal. Though his days were always thinking back to his times in Gravity Falls. Though he confessed his love for you Wendy, you both decided to stay friends. But he still couldn't get you out of his head. I told him it would only depress him so he should move on. And in saying so, he met somebody that would change him for the worse. This last year, he met a witch in disguise.

She introduced herself as Amy Snile.

She was a beautiful new girl that was a year older than us that transferred to our school. She took an immediate liking to Dipper, which made her follow him around. And after getting to know her, he ended up liking her too. They spent so much time together. Dipper ended up spending more time with her than even me, his twin sister. But I didn't mind, I was ecstatic about how close the two were ending up. They always had a smile on their face and enjoyed each other's company. So much so that after 3 months they started to date.

Mabel looked to Wendy, who didn't know how to feel about this information.

They dated for another three months and during that time our parents got to know Amy and treated her like family. She was always welcome. But the more time Amy was around, the more I felt something was wrong. But I shrugged it off thinking it was just jealousy of a girl getting more attention from Dipper than his own sister.

"But I should have listened to myself! If I did, maybe it could have all been avoided!" Mabel cried out now noticing that Grunkle Stan was in the doorway now. Back from trying to pick the twins up. She was going to apologize but he just motioned for her to continue. He knew the situation was bad, but not the whole story.

One weekend, our parents made an appointment to finally take off my braces. We decided to leave Dipper home by himself. We left early that morning and we didn't expect to come back until late. But while we were in the car, Dad got a phone call that there was screaming coming from our house. So we quickly went back. We were only gone for a few hours. The cops were already at our house and we searched looking for Dipper but couldn't find him. Until we heard a scream from the basement. When we went down, we were all horrified at what we found.

Mabel's tears started to flow and she began to rock back and forth. The memories were taking a huge toll on her.

"It's ok Mabel, you can stop! We don't need to know!" Grunkle Stan said trying to comfort his precious niece.

But Mabel didn't want to stop. Instead the tears came out pouring as she cried harder continuing.

We found dipper chained to a mattress, with Amy above him with a knife! His body looked like it was put in a shredder. There were so many scars and burns on his body! There was so much blood everywhere! The mattress was soaked in it. The walls were covered in it. Even the tools that our dad stored in the basement were covered in blood. Nails, drills, hammers, pliers, knives and our dad's blowtorch. Everything with Amy's finger prints that were covered in Dipper's blood. His nails were torn off and put in a neat pile. The only part of him that seemed untouched was his face that was stained from tears from crying those long hours.

The police grabbed Amy and tore her away from dipper. Before she was taken from the basement she cried out. "I enjoyed our time together, but I'm not done yet! I'll be back to finish what I started. I took away feelings, your innocence, and your humanity!"

"All that's left is to take your identity and you will become just like me! You've already become a shell of your former self that will enjoy the pain and torture of others! You'll lose your humanity and become a dark shadow that feeds off pain. You will become my pet! My demon!"

Being released from his the chains, Dipper was quickly taken to the hospital. The doctors said it was a miracle he was still alive with how much blood he lost. Dipper at the hospital didn't tell exactly what happened to him in the basement. But he did tell the cops the gist of what Amy did… She tortured and raped him…

Dipper was finally released from the hospital and Amy was basically sentenced for life in jail. But her real name turned out to be Amy Gregor. A psychopathic teenager who murdered her parents and tortured and raped her friends or anybody else that knew her. The cops have been looking for her for a little over a year. Unfortunately for Dipper, they didn't find her till she claimed another victim.

Though Dipper was released from the hospital, he could still feel the pain Amy caused that terrible day. The doctors said it was because almost all his nerves were damaged from the scaring. There were only a few "personal areas" where there were no scars, so no nerve damage. Dipper felt constant pain. But after a few weeks he seemed to get better. But the pain didn't go away, he just became numb to it.

Nightmares of Amy's return and him becoming the monster she said haunted him. He didn't get any sleep and became extremely paranoid. It got so bad that he then started trying to take his life.

Everyone was shocked and depressed at the thought of Dipper trying to end his life. Especially Wendy who started to cry, not able to hold in her tears any longer, as she covered her mouth to muffle her weeping.

Multiple times he cut his wrists. He was afraid of what he would become. But after failing so many times. He became numb to his emotions as well. He slowly faded away until he didn't care about anything anymore. He didn't cared if he died or lived, time was just passing by for him. We tried to send him back to school, but he ended up just hurting people that made fun of him or looked at him funny. Then he started to just hurt people for no reason and was expelled for the safety of the teachers and students.

Weeks went by and there was no change. Things just kept getting worse! He spoke his mind, and didn't care about our feelings. He didn't care if what he said hurt the people around him. I ended up quitting school to take care of him. Though my parents disagreed with my decision. But when I asked them what else I was supposed to do… What we were supposed to do… T-They said….that they have already given up on him. The Dipper they saw wasn't their child. Just a shell of his former self like Amy said. They planned to just wait for the next time Dipper tried to take his life so the nightmare would be over!

"How could they do such a thing, when he needed them most? How could they abandon their own son and wait for him to kill himself?" Wendy thought as her tears showed no sign of stopping.

I decided if they were not going to help, if they had already given up on him, then there was no reason for us to stay. So I called Grunkle Stan, and begged for his help. To let us come back to the Mystery Shack. I even said I'd work the rest of my life here if he helped change Dipper back. Grunkle Stan knowing that something was wrong from how I talked on the phone, tried to calm me down and said we were welcome to come back and stay as long as we wanted. So I told him we were coming on the next bus and to pick us up at the bus stop. But Dipper became tired of waiting and left me when my back was turned.

And here we are.

"Mabel I called your parents. They told me to protect you! That Dipper has been becoming…Unstable. There's a chance he might hurt you. How can you still think of him as your beloved twin brother after the personality change he went through?" Stan said

"I know the Dipper I loved so much still inside him! Because of all the chances he had to hurt me! He never did. He always stopped himself! He can still love! He still cares! I don't care what Amy said! Dipper still has his humanity! He's still in there I know it! I just needed to bring him back somehow. Gravity Falls was the best summer of our lives. Full of happy memories. If anything can change him back, we'll find it here. Please I know it's selfish of me and it might even end up being dangerous for all of you. But please! Help we get my Dipper back. Please help me save him from himself!" Mabel cried

"Of course we'll help! I don't know how, but we'll work together to change him back! I want to see the old Dipper too." Wendy cried holding Mabel in her arms. Soos and Stan agreed and joined the hug to comfort the two girls. They were all oblivious to the lifeless eyes that were watching them from the corner above the staircase.
