I'll go ahead and tell you, this chapter will contain a bit of 'Christianity' in it, specifically prayer.
Now i'm not sure Christianity even totally adds up with my story,
but I felt this was the best way for me to portray them all together, in the end scene of this chapter.
But don't worry, it won't be anymore than references to the Pines family being Christians themselves,
(my version of them anyway, even though they...might not always act like it.)
I believe this story will still be enjoyable to those of you who are not, since the later parts of this story won't carry much if any of a christian message, in fact if anything, it'll probably conflict with Christianity again,
now as a Christian myself, I don't see anything wrong with this, seeing as this is a fictional world.
now i'm not saying we're gonna see any 'gods' or anything like that, cause we're not, but we might see some...pretty weird stuff.
anyway, let's start the story.
We see Kate and Cat enter the house with Antonio.
Mabelline rushes down.
"BWOTHAH! HUGS MEH!"
She tackles him knocking him down.
Antonio replies "GACK! Mabelline you're choking me!"
Mabelline screams "NEVER!"
Antonio replies again "ACK, I AM DYING!"
Mabel rushes over "What? Mabelline don't choke him!"
Mabelline backs away "...Sorry Mommy..
BUT BWOTHER!"
Mabel sighs "Brother understands you want to give him a hug,
but try not to so hard, alright?"
Mabelline nods "Awight."
They walk inside.
We see the new 'Mystery Manor' interior,
While bigger than the previous Mystery Shack, it's not of much better quality inside.
as by this period, it's not exactly new.
We see a young blonde haired boy, with slick hair wiping the cash register off.
his name is 'Patrick Gleeful' son of Pacifica and Gideon.
Kate walks over to him.
"HI PATRICK! H-how's it going?"
Cat smiles oddly at Kate.
Patrick replies "Oh nothing much Kate, just finishing up wiping the cash register,
how's it going for you huh? was school good?"
Kate blushes "Oh...school was fine,
haha, Lollipop tried to eat a Lollipop,
she's a cannibal I tell you!"
She waves her hands about Patrick laughs "AHAHA, that's a good one kid."
Kate crosses her arms.
"...Kid?!"
She jumps up onto the register.
"I'm not a kid!"
Patrick laughs again "Haha, whatever you say Kate."
He walks away
Cat continues to stare at Kate Kate raises an eyebrow.
"...What?"
Cat laughs "AHAHAHAHAHAHAH,
Katey's got a crushy crush!"
Kate blushes again "WHAT?! I DO NOT!"
Cat smiles "Then why are you bluuuuuuuuuuushing?"
Kate replies "I...i'm-
I DON'T KNOW!"
Dipper and Wendy smile.
Wendy laughing "Well doesn't that look familiar..."
Dipper smiles back "What? what are you talking about?"
Wendy laughs again "What?.. you don't-
SHE'S ACTING LIKE YOU GOOFUS!"
Dipper blushes "Oh...yeah, I guess she is..sorta."
Wendy punches his arm "SORTA? She's acting EXACTLY like you."
Dipper rubs his arm "Y-yeah but...
even so, it's just a crush,
what happened with us was...special,
no one would have ever expected it'd work out."
Wendy replies "Oh yeah? if you say so.
i'd say those two have something real special."
she then walks off, brushing Dipper's hair on the way out, and taking his hat with her, smiling back.
"If you want your hat come get it goofus!"
Dipper screams "HEY!" and instead of chasing her, stops and looks down into his journal, marked with a pine tree.
"History sure does repeat itself..."
Antonio then comes back with a letter.
"Everyone, I have a letter for you all,
it is from someone named 'Grenda'
Mabel rushes over and grabs the letter.
"OOOH."
She reads it out loud.
"Dear Mabel, you are hereby formally invited to our son Marshal's 11 birthday,
we hope you won't miss it. P.S: He's really hoping to see Cat, I think he likes her."
Mabel laughs, and hands it to Dipper.
Dipper reads it, and Cat starts jumping up and down.
"WHAT'S IT SAY?! WHAT'S IT SAY?!"
Dipper makes a face of slight anger, and much concern.
"NOTHING FOR YOU TO WORRY ABOUT IT.
He whispers "Mabel... Grenda's son and my daughter,
...No.
It's just wrong."
Mabel laughs "Oh come on bro bro,
lighten up! you were fine with Kate crushing on Gideon and Pacifica's son."
Dipper sighs "Mabel that kid is a maniac, just yesterday he teepeed a house with toilet paper,
Candy and Lee's house for crying out loud!
While Patrick actually ended up pretty nice...oddly enough."
Mabel scoffs "Yeah that wasn't very nice Dip, but don't worry about it, just come on,
let's go eat some ice cream! iiii'm starving."
The group walk into the kitchen, Dipper walking by Wendy, snatching his hat back.
"I'll take that, thank you."
The whole family then sit down at their large table for dinner.
He see's Patrick and Gwen start to walk out.
Dipper then looks over to them.
"HEY! YOU TWO!
GET BACK HERE!
You're not leaving for home, without enjoying dinner with us,
understood?"
They both smile, replying.
"SURE THING BOSS!"
Patrick sits down, Kate attempting to sit next to him, but Gwen takes her seat.
"HEY!" she screams
Gwen laughs "Haha, sorry little girl, why don't you go sit with your parents?"
Kate grumbles "*Grumble grumble grumble*"
She goes to sit next to her Dad, Cat sitting next to her mother.
Dipper then bows his head "Dear Lord...
I thank you for this meal, I thank you for all of our family...and friends,
here having this dinner with us, and all of those who can't.
I thank you that Grenda and Nate were considerate enough to invite us to their party,
and I thank you... for bring us all together, through all of the trials and tribulations we've faced.
In Jesus name...Amen."
The other's raise up, and clap.
Wendy reaches her fork down into her plate, realizing all of her food has been eaten.
She looks over to Cat, with a mouth full of chicken and laughs, brushing her the top of her head.
Mabelline is seen with the table cloth in her mouth, nomming it as if it were a piece of food.
And Antonio begins passing the biscuits to everyone else.
All was well with the Pines family, it seemed after everything that went on, everything that took so much from them,
they were finally at peace.
