Hello, everyone! Please don't forget to review and let me know how I'm doing with this story and what I can do better. I'm open to anything. By the way, a great website to use to decode my messages would be: . Anyway, here's Chapter 3. Enjoy!:

Chapter III

Dipper jumped up onto the checkout counter and punched Dark Gravel (the teen made of rock from Chapter Two (his name was revealed in the code)) backwards.

The rock monster was slammed into the wall next to the door, which was still open.

Mabel flew over to Dark Gravel, grabbed him, and threw him outside.

Woa! We can fly? thought Dipper. He leapt off the counter intending to fly, but fell on his stomach.

"Or maybe not yet," Dipper groaned as he rolled onto his back. He got up and ran outside to see Dark Gravel (who had his back to the Shack) and Mabel facing each other about ten yards in front of the Mystery Shack. The rock monster was summoning large rocks and throwing them at Mabel, who did a good job avoiding them since she was flying.

"Hey! Why don't you get a piece of me!" shouted Dipper. He hoped that this would distract the monster long enough for Mabel to attack.

But Dark Gravel turned around glared at Dipper and threw a large stone at him.

After failing to avoid getting hit, Dipper was thrown backwards by the impact into the Mystery Shack. He crashed into a postcard rack.

At that moment, Wendy walked into the room, holding a broom.

"Alright, guys, lets—" She stopped after taking a look around.

"Wendy!" exclaimed Dipper. "I mean citizen! Hide somewhere. There's a villain outside."

Wendy just stared at him.

So Dipper just got up and flew back outside.

Hey, I can fly now, he realized. Well, it's time for Rock Butt to go down!

Dipper flew over to Dark Gravel, who was still trying to hit Mabel with one of the stones he was summoning, and delivered a hard punch.

The rock monster fell forward on his face. He rolled onto his back and roared.

Dipper dropped to the ground, landed on his feet, and clenched his fists. "Next time, think twice about where you try to attempt robbery," he said. "Or don't do it at all!"

Mabel flew next to her brother and gasped. "Dipper, look at your fists!"

After looking down at them, Dipper saw that he had somehow summoned two blue balls of energy.

"This is so cool!" he breathed. Dipper hurled the balls of energy at Dark Gravel.

The rock monster had already gotten up, and now rolled forward to avoid getting hit by the balls of energy. He got up and stood four feet in front of Dipper and Mabel.

"Is that the best you can do?" taunted Dark Gravel in his Darth Vader like voice. "It'll take more than that to defeat me!"

"I guess there's only one way to find out!" said Dipper. He thrust his hands forward, meaning to shoot two beams of energy at the teen made of rock. Instead, there was a flash and the next thing Dipper knew, he was back in his human form.

Dark Gravel smirked at this and Mabel put her head in one of her hands.

"Whoops," Dipper said. "That wasn't supposed to happen."

Dark Gravel swung his arm with all of his strength and backhanded Dipper, sending him flying back into the Mystery Shack. He slammed into the checkout counter.

Back at square one, thought Dipper miserably. Again.

He stood up, ready to power up, when he heard someone whisper his name from behind the counter.

Dipper walked around the checkout counter and saw Wendy, crouching behind it, gripping her broom tightly.

She motioned for Dipper to come to her. After doing so, he crouched down and asked what she was doing.

"Man, the weirdest thing just happened," Wendy said. "There was some robot kid who told me that there was a villain outside. So I called the cops. And by the way, he looked kinda like you—"

"But he's obviously not me, 'cause I'm right here," interrupted Dipper nervously. "And he's outside, fighting the monster. Not me. Him. Hehe."

This whole secret identity thing was tearing Dipper apart. On the one hand, he really wanted to tell Wendy. Keeping secrets could ruin the little chances he has with her. Plus, nothing was stopping him. But on the other hand, he feared that Wendy would see him as a freak. Or that she might accidently tell someone who could leak it to the rest of the town.

"You know what, now that you're here, I think that I'm gonna try to record the fight on my phone," said Wendy. She stood up and pulled out her Android. "Besides, it would make a great YouTube video."

After turning on the camera, Wendy began to record and led Dipper over the doorway to see what was going on outside.

Right at that moment, Mabel was flying fifteen feet in the air and about six feet in front of Dark Gravel, who was glaring up at her.

Dipper noticed that the teen made of rock was clearly somewhat weakened.

Mabel fired two continuous twin beams of red energy at Dark Gravel's face. The rock monster screamed and immediately reverted back to human form.

Mabel stopped the beams of energy just as Sheriff Blubs and Deputy Durland arrived in their squad car.

Mabel looked at Wendy and Dipper, did a small salute, and flew off.

"That was epic!" said Wendy as she stopped the video. "Even though that wasn't the robot kid I saw earlier, it was still awesome." She gasped. "What if there are two of them!"

Mabel, now in her human form, walked into the Mystery Shack via the employees only door.

"Hey, guys," she said. "What'd I miss?"
