"What are you talking about?" asked Stan.

"Oh Stanford, you have no idea do you? Your nephew was kidnapped!"

"Oh really?" Stan asked sarcastically. "By who?"

"My sources tell me,"

"Look Gideon, I don't know who gave you the idea that I'd listen to your lies, but I'm not going to listen to your lies!"

"Oh yeah! Well I,"

"Now unless, by some miracle, you come back with proof, I don't want to hear it. Now beat it you little rat!" And then Stan took a broom and pushed Gideon away from the door before slamming it.

"You'll see Stanford; I'll come back with the most proofiest proof that you'd ever seen!"

"'Proofiest' is not a word." Stan yelled from the living room. Gideon began muttering under his breath as he stomped away like the child he was.

"Mabel, will you stop staring at face; you're freaking me out." Dipper mumbled. The twins were taking a short cut through town to get to the forest. However Mabel wouldn't stop sneaking glances at Dipper's yellow eyes and now his fangs, which had, very painfully, cut through his gums earlier that day. "Stop it!" he fussed quietly. He was trying his best not to draw attention to himself.

"Sorry, its just that you look so uh… different."

"You were going to say 'ugly' weren't you?" he sighed, looking at his claw toes. "Look Mabel; if you don't stop staring at me, then I want you to go back."

"But I want to help."

"Mabel, its my problem; not yours." The twins got into an argument; a loud argument. People were beginning to stare. Sheriff Blubbs walked over and startled the two when he spoke.

"You think I don't know what's going on here?" he asked. "I know exactly what's going on." Dipper held his breath, and hoped he hadn't been discovered. "Mabel has a boyfriend!" he said excitedly. Dipper felt tremendously relieved. "So who's the lucky guy?" asked Sheriff Blubbs, still grinning with excitement. Mabel and Dipper looked at each other awkwardly. Finally, Mabel spoke.

"This is, uh, Roger."

`"Nice to meet you, Roger." Sheriff Blubbs held out his hand. Dipper just stood there.

"Okay; time to go. Bye!" Mabel and Dipper ran towards the woods without looking back.

"They grow up so fast." Sheriff Blubbs said and walked over to join Deputy Durland at the local donut shop.

"Stupid ladder!" Gideon grumbled while trying to throw a rope ladder to Mabel and Dipper's bedroom. As for how he acquired it he 'borrowed' it from a neighborhood kid's tree house. Finally, after a few more tries he was successful. As he entered the bedroom he made a beeline for Dipper's dresser. He took out a red shirt, grey shorts and a navy blue Marty McFly vest. He grabbed a pair of scissors and cut up the clothing so it looked like it had been shredded; by claws. "Perfect." He grinned and climbed out the window, taking the ladder with him.
