Author's Note: Here's The Next Chapter! I don't own gravy falls

The old conman was jolted up by the sudden sound of something strange came from downstairs. He wanted to just believe it was just Mabel but he had to make sure.

Trudging slowly downstairs he called it in his usual gruff tone wiping sleep out of his eyes "Hey Mabel Syrup what are ya doing down her-" He was cut off as he looked down to see no Mabel by the couch, And the peculiar sound was growing louder, It sounded like it was coming from the vending machine.

As he glanced at the machine it just shut and closed tight.

Oh for fuck sakes I hope the kid wasn't trying to stop ford completely on her own right now The old man panicked as he quickly paced to the machine punching in the special code and watching it slowly rise open.

Hurriedly closing it and standing inside of it now he clicked for the basement and stood impatiently as it now shut and went down.

The elevator now opened and Stanley ran out of the machine to be greeted with the piercing sound of the portal. It nearly shattered his hearing aid from the inside as he put his hands over his ears and groaned loudly in pain.

Bearing through it with gritted teeth and determination he looked to see Ford holding Mabel and Dipper (who was inside some type of bubble?) Going inside the portal.

Sprinting over to the portal Ford was already almost gone as the portal enveloped almost his whole body only leaving a bit of his foot and jacket.

Desperate Stanley grabbed his trench coat and gave it a yank. His fingers could barely grip onto it good though as his hands easily slipped off. When all seem lost he was surprised to feel something heavy fall out of the portal and into his hands.

Looking down he saw it had a title on it 'Stanford Pines Portal Gun'

Stanley now stood there in the dark basement littered with his brother's scientist equipment with a blank expression. He couldn't believe all of this was happening! Mabel was gone, Dipper was gone, and his brother was lord knows where in whatever dimension he tooken them.

Alright Stanley don't panic..Just look to see if maybe the gun could take you to the dimension Ford took the children. Stanley began to think rationally as he peered down at the gun. In the tiny viewable screen he squinted to see that it beared 'Dimension 52'

Stanley knew if he was going to get the children back it was going to take some dimension searching. Even if it may be the RIGHT dimension it'd be a good start to finding ford and the kids.

With the gun in his hand, Stanley's fingers curled tightly around the trigger and he pulled back and the gun let out a loud BLAST as a blue vortex came and shot onto the wall.

The man covered his ears a bit as the ferocious whooshing sound of the portal came back.

The wind whipping the man's fez back, Stanley held onto it "Alright here we go." Stanley simply said to himself before trudging into the portal.

Stanford stood proudly in Dimension 52 keeping Mabel locked in a vice grip despite the girl stopping struggling quite a while now.

Mabel gave an eye roll and huff at Stanford formulating escape plans before she looked around to see the children.

They looked miserable. All just broken. If they didn't look physically depressed or emotionally drained they looked really beat up with old looking clothes.

All of their faces seemed like they're ready for death's warm embrace but he was just teasing them and keeping them in this hell. Dipper and Mabel looked at each other worried now at the sight. Would Grunkle Ford REALLY make them like these children are? Battered and Traumatized?

Their eyes also followed up to the giant billboard hanging on a large tower.

It was titled "THE RULES."

And it was stated clearly as followed

-Don't disobey your superior authority.

-If an adult tells you to do something you do it NO

circumstances (Unless authority figure disagrees with adult command.)

-Don't talk back to any adults.

-Do NOT physically or verbally assault adults.

-No child must protest this society, Peaceful or not it isn't allowed.

-And no child must EVER be without an adult.

And on the bottom in threatning red text it said "If any rules are broken the child may be subject to any of these following consequences:

-Disowning by authority figure

-Physical Punishment

-Public Humiliation

-Jailing

- Or DEATH

It almost seemed in usion as the twins paled barely moving at all now. The only movement being the nervous sweat trickling down the boy's head now.

"Ha hah are you guys reading that old rule board?" "Don't worry about that, you don't have to worry about ANY of those things happening to you children." Stanford warmly smiled at the children.

For a second the kids nerves eased for a second but was reignited as the old scientists face went dark and he stated "As long as you listen to me, at all times, NO questions or fighting my authority or ways."

With that put out there the kids gasped a bit and went right back to being scared stiff.

Stanford walked forward now dragging Dipper's bubble and holding Mabel. "We can't just sit out there all day." The old man simply put out there as he went to a nice looking condo.

"Hey Stanford! Nice to have ya back!" Some random bystander outside greeted giving them a wave. They looked down to see the kids and gave a noticeable scowl of disgust.

Stanford just gave a wave back as the person walked off a bit visibly disgusted.

As they went inside Ford harshly dropped Mabel and popped the boy's bubble.

Exhausted the two went to couch and plopped down giving a heavy sigh

"HEY GET OFF OF THERE YOU TWO COULD BE INFESTED WITH YOUR OLD DIMENSIONS BACTERIA!" Ford barked before shoving the two off the couch.

Dipper and Mabel quickly scampered to one another and held each other trembling. They both knew they had to get out of here and back to their dimension. And pretty soon if they wanted to leave with their sanity.
