Chapter 2: Homecoming

Previously

A boy wearing an orange t-shirt and a lumberjack hat was seen holding a notebook in his right hand while the other was holding a pen, he comfortably seating in the passenger seat of what seems to be a bus. Beside him was a girl wearing a light blue sweater with writing imprinted on it "Unicorns are real!".

The girl teasingly jerked her hand on the boy shoulder which leads him to drop his notebook and pen in the process.

"ugh cut it out, Mabel!" Groaned the boy as he picked up the fallen items.

"Ugh C'mon dipper isn't you excited?" Mabel said while waving her arms all over the place.

"For a 15-year old, I thought you could contain your excitement." Stated dipper with a straight face.

This leads Mabel to frown and gave dipper the googly eyes. He looked at his frowning sister before a teasing grin form on his lips.

"I'm just messing with you, of course, I'm excited!" Exclaimed dipper while playfully tickles his sister.

"Hey can you two keep it down back there, I'm driving here." Remarked the driver as she was to annoyed at the sibling behavior.

Both of them only giggled before they settle down and enjoy the trip. Mabel pulled out her phone and plugged in her earphones and listen to some of her music. Dipper looked outside the window and saw trees, mountains, and rivers alongside the road. He sighed and reach for his pocket, from there he took out a folded piece of paper, the paper looked wrinkly and dirty. He opened the paper and smiled remembering all of his past memories, Mabel noticed this and leaned her head against her brother's shoulder.

"Do you think they still remember us?" asked Mabel.

"Of course they do you dum dum." Replied Dipper.

He gently puts the note in his pocket and leaned against his sister's head. Before both of them closed their eyes.

"THEIR FAMILY!"

The sound of engine roaring and shifting gear was heard in his sleep, he groans as the urge of opening his eyes was presence. The sound of birds chirping and the breeze of the cold morning air passing through his t-shirt. He flinched his body from side to side, he groans once more as he felt a sudden halt that pushed his body forward from his seat.

He slowly opens his eyes and looked to his left to find his twin sister still sleeping while wearing her earphone, he stood up and checked his surroundings before he walked to the driver seat. He carefully moved past his sleeping sister, trying not to wake her up. He managed to get to the front seat and right away he noticed the cause of the halt. From the front window, he could see a huge crowd piled up in the middle of the road, blocking the busway to the mystery shack.

The driver furiously honked its horn at the crowd but to her vain, it did not do much. Some people even hissed and cursed at her.

"Urgh, these people are stupid as they are stubborn." Remarked the Bus driver. He looked back at Dipper with a concerned look. "I'm a sorry kid, I guess this is how far I can take you."

"It's ok, we could use a little walk anyways." Replied Dipper confidently.

He went back to his seat and nudges Mabel's shoulder. Mabel groans and turned her back against dipper, Dipper sigh and began to shake her shoulder trying to wake her up. He really wanted to yell at her but knowing he is in no mood and condition to do so. he could only hope that Mabel snaps back to her senses.

"Mabel wake up!" Dipper cried once again.

No response.

Dipper got no other choice and decide to take a water bottle from his bag. He began to pour some of the liquid onto his hand and splashed them across Mabel's face.

And to his relief, it worked as Mabel groan and stretch her arm. She yawned and took off her earphone before greeting her brother.

"Oh hey Dipper, are we there yet?" Mabel asked while wiping her face. "Gee, do I always sweat this much!"

Dipper could only face palmed himself before explaining the situation to Mabel.

Moments passed and the pine twins finally got their bag out of the bus and started walking toward the mystery shack. In the distance they could see the full view of the northwest mansion, standing glorious on the top of the mountain.

As they were too focused on looking upon the mansion, Dipper accidentally bumped into someone. He was a middle-aged man about in his twenties, he was wearing a white tank top along with shorts and sandals.

"Hey, watch where you're going pal!" hitch the man pushing Dipper aside before leaving.

"what's that all about?" Asked Dipper giving the man a straight eye as he cleaned his shirt.

"Don't let him get to you bro-bro." Stated Mabel placing a hand on Dippers shoulder.

All of a sudden a rumbling sound was heard from the mansion, the crowd was now looking at the mansion with worried and confused faces. Dipper notices this and decides to ask someone, in the corner of his eye he saw a girl about the same age as him and Mabel, standing at the far left side.

There is something familiar that Dipper notices about this girl, she was wearing a black skirt followed by a sweater just like Mabel's the only difference being her sweater is green in color followed by a light green color almost cyan stripe. Her hair was black in color followed by a ponytail, she was also wearing glasses.

"Hey, excuse me don't mind if I ask you but what is going on here?" Dipper asked.

"Didn't you heard? The northwest mansion is being demolished." The girl explained with a little of a Chinese accent while still focusing her vision on the mansion.

This made the twins gasped knowing that it is almost impossible to demolish something historical and important but also despite that McGucket had bought the place.

"What how? I thought McGucket bough that thing!" Mabel exclaimed while placing both of her hands on her head.

"Do you know any special reasons why?" Asked Dipper.

"I hate to say it but I don't really know either." Stated the girl before making eye contact with Dipper.

They both shared an awkward silence, they were glancing at each other exchanging looks while examining from head to toe.

It's not long before Mabel walked up to the girl and spoke up.

"Candy?" Mabel asked placing both of her hand on the girl's shoulder.

"Mabel?" The girl replied with a soft smile.

They both shared a quick hug before realizing one another.

"Candy?! Candy Chiu?" Dipper asked with a confused expression.

"Yup that's me!" Candy replied winking at Dipper. "Hey Dipper, long time no see"

"Wow candy looks at you, you look beautiful." Mabel complimented as she examines Candy.

Candy facial appearance didn't change much at all except for her height, she was now as tall as Mabel.

"And look at you too Mabel." Candy started looking at Mabel.

A loud boom was heard from the mansion that sends a wave of dust coming towards them. They closed and covered their eyes with their hands before reopening them only to find the mansion in debris.

the crowd was now muttering to one another before departing, leaving the twins and candy all alone in the middle of the road. An uneasy look form in Dipper's face, he knew that McGucket would never just abandon the mansion like that. Unless he had lost his mind as he did a few years ago.

Dipper shook his head from side to side deciding not to think about it any further since he knew thinking about it too much will only trammel the reason why he is here in the first place.

As clueless as Dipper could be, Mabel and Candy were already walking leaving Dipper behind. It took a moment before he notices this.

"Hey, guys wait for me!" Dipper shouted as he gains pursuit.

Somewhere in the universe

A sobbing echoed from the distance of the universe, Bill was peering through the Galaxy in search of the very voice. He moved his triangular body from side to side and the look on his eyes clearly shows that he is worried.

"Where are you?" Bill shouted hoping for replies.

The sobs began to grow louder and louder, worried began to cower him once again as he quickly dashed to the direction of the voice.

He narrowed his eyes to maximize his vision and surely enough from the distance he saw the cause of the sobs. It was a triangular being sharing similarities of him, the only difference being it was blue rather than yellow goldish color. The being was cowering in fear, he tucked his feet with his hands with his black cane leaning against his body, his top hat was slightly leaning towards the left rather than straight.

Bill got close to the figure, the figure doesn't seem to notice Bill until he decides to lift his head up. Upon seeing him he stopped crying and immediately leap onto Bill hugging him in the process.

"You came, you actually came!" he tightened the grip onto Bills.

"Yeah, yeah it's good to see you to Will." Replied Bill trying to free himself from the grasp.

"So how is it? Is he going to help me?" Asked Will.

"I don't know yet, he got my message." Replied Bill simply.

"Can we trust this guy?" asked Will once again.

"Hey if there are a trillion life forms in this universe, trust me bro I'm your best bet." Replied Bill simply.

"Thanks brother!" Replied Will hugging his brother tighter.

"OK enough of the hugging please!" Bill pushing of his brother aside irritated.

At that moment a blue void was created behind Will, inside the void a silhouette of a boy and a girl was seen standing beside one another with grins on their faces.

The petrified look on Will's face tells it all, they are no friendly matter. Will was now forced to walk into the void, inside him though he has the urge to ignore them that would mean misleading his existence. He took one last glimpse of his brother before disappearing into thin air along with the void.

Bill who saw this only could clench his fist in anger, despite him being a demon he also got a soft spot when it comes into family. He took deep breaths before exhaling and fixed his bowtie, he sighs at the situation knowing he will not get any progress if he just keeps standing there.

"Don't worry brother, I will get you out of this mess. I have already lost you once and I'm not going to lose you again." Bill started as his eyes and body turned red in anger.
