A/N: Hey guys I couldn't leave you with such a short update so here you go!

I had a so much fun writing this chapter.

I don't own Gravity Falls but can I please have Dipper. Please Santa?

Evening Tea at Gleeful Manor

-Mabel Gleeful-

"Another set of twins…how peculiar." I said before a long sip of earl grey with two sugars. Dipper had just told me of his morning at the Mystery Shack and I didn't like it. From the way he described it these other twins were supposed to be our opposites. Disgusting. "And that thing in the woods," I put my cup down on its saucer, "it was a wish granting demon?" He rolled his eyes. "No, I don't want you talking to him. It's not to be trusted, I'm sure it only wants my help because it thinks we have similar goals. Head my words Mabel: Don't go looking for this Bill." He gave me a stern look. He was trying to read my mind, oh brother. He knows he can't read my mind; I'm on the same level of psychic power as him. "Oh brother of mine I promise, besides he sounds terribly annoying anyway." A lie of course, this wish granting demon sounds positively miraculous and I want in on what ever deal he made with my dear brother. I know exactly want I want to wish for…

"After the show tonight I'm going to do a little digging about the Bill he wants to find. Oh, and tell Pepper to arrive early to set up for the Illusion Act, there are a lot of props and I want it to look perfect before curtain call." And with that he got up to go, leaving his tea cold and untouched, after all the work I put into brewing it. I let out an aggravated sigh. My brother thinks he's being secretive but I know he just wants time to talk to her; she doesn't need to come early. I smiled to myself, instead of moving props I'll have her wash the stage floor and the audience seats, she'll be so exhausted by show time she's bound to screw something up. I took out my phone and sent her the simple command and she replied quickly with a "Yes, Mabel, be there soon." Well I'm bored now. I want to see these…twins. Yes, that's what I'll do, pay my little Gideon a visit and see what he's hiding. I better get him some chocolates while I'm at it.

I had the family driver drop me off at the Pines and exited the car in style. I had on a pink pleated skirt, a black blouse and my pink mary-janes. I looked positively stunning; it would be close to impossible for Gideon to not think of me a anything other than that. I adjusted the box of chocolates in my arms and knocked on the front door. There was a thud and a few footsteps. Then silence. I knocked again and ran a hand through my hair. CREAK. A panting Gideon opened the door rather quickly. "Hello- oh- M-mabel. Hi, what are you doing here?" He gave a cute little smiled and leaned against the doorframe. "OH DARLIN~!" I dropped the chocolates and gave him a snuggle. "When you smile at my it makes my little heart sing~" He was saying something but I couldn't hear him clearly so I pulled away. "What's that hun? You're inviting me in? How gentlemanly!" I waltzed inside and looked around. I could smell food from the kitchen and saw four plates on the table. On the plates were pancakes all in various stages of being eaten. "Did Stanly make you and Pacifica some breakfast…how…quaint." I turned to him for an answer and saw him tense up. Gotcha. "Y-yeah, you actually just missed him, he went out for, uh, milk. And um, won't be back for a bit, yeah…" He laughed nervously and played with the brim of his hat. Adorable little liar.

"Oh, is that so? Then wouldn't mind if I hung around a bit to catch up with you my dear?" I slowly walked up to him. "My brother told me a juicy bit of gossip and I'm dying to know if it's true. Care to enlighten me?"

Minutes Before Mabel Knocks

-Pepper-

"And I was hiding under the counter the whole time and he fucking bought it!" Dipper and Gideon had been retelling how they out smarted Dipper Gleeful all morning. Mabel looked enchanted, I was too it was pretty thrilling. The way Dipper described his Gleeful opposite was funny, apparently he slammed the front door in his face. Man I wish I was awake when this happened. Pacifica dumped another couple pancakes on my plate. "I think I'm full." I said and watched as Mabel took all the pancakes on my plate and put them on hers. Dipper and Pacifica laughed as she gobbled the remainder of the pancakes in two bites. I excused my self from the table to use the bathroom. "Oh Pep, here Mabel's borrowing my trainers and a skirt, so I put an out fit together for you. Oh and sorry bout the shoes their the only other pair I have." She handed me some folded clothes and brown winter boots. I almost forgot I was only wearing a nightgown and tights. I jogged to the bathroom and quickly washed my face and changed. Pacifica had given me a navy blue knit sweater and a pair of white shorts. I put my black tights on too and laced up the brown winter boots. I feeling a lot more like a normal person I was just opening the bathroom door when there was a loud rumble of an engine and a car door slamming shut.

Gideon got up to look out of the window to see who it was. "Lemme see who it-SHIT!" He took a double take from the window to the kitchen. "Guys, its MABEL, you need to sneak out the back. She's either here for me or doing some of her brother's bidding, neither are good so you need to hide out back." He ran to the back door and pointed to the woods. Just stay out there until I say its clear." Dipper and Mabel ran out first and got a head start. When I reached the kitchen I didn't know which way to run to so I just ran for the woods. The kitchen door slammed shut behind me. I didn't stop running until I neared town. Stopping to take a breath I looked around to see where I could hide until it was safe to go back. I was a few blocks from the café, but the empty tent of telepathy was closer and it was probably better if no one in town saw me. I took a careful stride as I entered the tent. It was dim but not dark. And smelled like it had just been cleaned. I walked further till I met with the stage. It was still wet from whom ever just mopped. CLUNK SPLUSH. I let out a little yelp and spun in the direction of the loud noise. Stage left was soaked and a bucket rolled across to stage right. A mop was lying in the puddle; the person who had dropped it was backing away into the curtain. "Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry!" I tried to apologized, I must have scared this person. "I didn't know anyone else was in here. I'm so sorry, here…" I climbed up on stage and picked up the bucket, it smelled like lemons. I carefully avoided the puddle and handed the bucket to the person behind the stage curtain. They didn't move. "Um, I really am sorry. I didn't mean to make you drop this, I'll help you clean up this water if you like? Um…" I held the bucket out waiting for them to take it. Eventually the person stepped out from the curtain to hesitantly take to bucket.

I almost dropped the bucket myself when I saw who it was. "P-pepper, I mean, uh, sorry, uh, um I should-" What was I supposed to do? She looked at me with a terrified expression. She opened her mouth and shut it then took a deep breath and asked, "Who…are you? Did Mabel send you?" What? "No, Mabel didn't send me, no um. Listen I was just passing by and this place was empty so I-" This crock of bullshit coming from my mouth was surely leaving one hell of an impression on her. "But, who are you?" This time she managed to sound a little more demanding but that quickly vanished and she went back to cowering holding the bucket protectively in her arms. I made decision I would probably regret later but fuck it. "I'm Pepper Corduroy. I'm you from a different dimension." She looked at me with disbelief, and put the bucket down on the stage. When she made eye contact with me again she had a worried look on her face, like she was concentrating on something. I felt an itch in my brain. "You're telling the truth?" She said almost out of breath. "Wait, did you just read my mind? So you can do that here?" I didn't know what the difference between her and me was yet, but I guess she's not as good at mind reading if it makes her tired. "I can tell if people are lying or not. I'm no mind reader, that's Dipper's talent. If you are me from another plain of existence then why have you come here?" I looked over this girl's aura, she seems harmless and good hearted. I think I trust her. "Back in my world there was a demon who tricked me into being his friend in order to come her, I'm trying to find him to stop what ever evil plan he's scheming. Have you seen him? Yellow triangle," I draw the shape of bill in the air with my finger ", little bow tie and top hat?". She look surprised, "How do you know about Billy?" She asked honestly confused. "Billy? The triangle I'm looking for goes by Bill." She shook her head no. "I don't know about Bill, but Billy is blue and he would never scheme any evil plans." She looked around quickly and looked at the watch on her wrist. "We have time before the show starts, I'll ask Billy if he knows about the Bill your looking. Billy knows lots of things." I she picked up the mop and tried to mop up the rest up the spilled water. Gosh this girl is so…innocent. She's got this pure presence, it's really soothing, but she's in a constant state of panic, unlike my constant state of calm. Poor girl. She finished her mopping and took my wrist, dragging me to the dressing room. "Billy? Billy it's okay to come out. I have a question." She asked to the air. I stared at the empty room, nothing happened. "Billy she's a friend, she won't hurt you, promise."

A blue light twinged in mid air and there was a faint glow as a familiar shape morphed through the light. The light faded but there was still a dim blue glow around Billy. As I had guess he looked a lot like Bill, only…sadder. His eye darted around the room frightened and he floated over to Pepper. She held him in her arms like a scared child. "Billy what's the matter?" She asked in a hushed voice. I stood closer and leaned in to look at him. "Pepper there is something really wrong, I feel like there's something in town that's out to get me. It's scary…" he said in a shaky voice. So something is out to get him? "Hey there." I said in the same hushed voice. Billy looked at me with a wide eye. "Pepper? Who is she?" Pepper patted his hat, "She's me. Don't worry she's really nice, you can check for your self." He floated out of her arms; I took a step back a he look closely at me. It was like when Bill looked at me, like he was looking at the very fabric of my existence. He gasped and flew back into Pepper's arms. "I saw it! You know him!" He pointed at me. "Who Billy?" Pepper asked again in the hushed voice trying to calm him. "She knows the thing looking for me!" I took a step closer. "You mean Bill. Why is he looking for you?" I asked. "I don't know but he's scary I saw him in the woods talking to Miss Mabel, nothing scarier than a sight like that. Nothing." Pepper looked worried. "What was Mabel doing with him Bill?" He started to shake. "She wanted to make a wish…and he said he would grant it… I disappeared as fast as I could so they wouldn't get me!" She rocked him back and forth. "It's okay Billy your safe now. It's alright." This was so wrong. My relationship with Bill scared me as a child and eventually made me so emotional scared my parents forced me to move. But this is so different. "So you and Billy are friends?" Pepper nodded as she slowly ceased rocking Billy. "I found him crying in the woods one day, he was so alone and scared. I told him I would be his friend and we've been together ever since." I was a little jealous. "So your parents aren't divorced? And you never lived in California?" She shook her head no. "Of coarse not, my parents are madly in love with each other, they would never move from Gravity Falls." I stood there a moment thinking about how unfair this was, Iknow how selfish a thought that is but I was so mad. How come her parents get to be happy? How come mine had to split? How come I got the Bill with the god complex? I took a deep breath to calm down.

"Pepper? Are you backstage?" a boy's voice asked from the stage.

"Oh!" Bill dissolved into thin air. Pepper looked around frantically she didn't know what to do. I saw one of those Japanese wall dividers next to her and pushed her behind it. "Pepper?" I whirled around coming face to face with Dipper Gleeful. "U-uh, hello…Dipper…" Shit, why didn't I hide behind the divider, shit I don't know what to do? He looked at me up and down. "What are you wearing?" I looked down at my self; the other Pepper was wearing short shorts and a crop top. She was showing off way more skin than I normally do. Huh, for a girl who wears stuff like that she's not really all that self-confident. As for me you'd think wouldn't I hide my confidence under layers of clothes. I guess this Dipper was really observant. He took my hand in his and brought it up to his face. He kissed it softly and gave a small smile. "I like the color blue on you…" he softly before letting hand go and making his way to a mirror labeled 'Dipper'. I was at complete loss for words. I. I just. Oh no, I could feel myself getting red. "Pepper…have you seen Mabel? She isn't answering her phone so I assumed she had come early to get her costume together." He looked at me. I felt a jolt of electricity go down my spine. "N-no, I haven't seen her. I just finished mopping." I said quieter than I normally do. Jesus this guy is so suave and charming it's hard to function. "She should be her soon then, I'm going to get the stage set up. You probably get into costume before she shows." And with that he walked out the dressing room.

I felt dizzy. Pepper popped out from behind the divider. "Oh no!" She whisper-yelled, "He thinks you're me! We can't both be here, Mabel is bound to find one of us!" She started to panic. I took her by her shoulders, "Hey I got a plan." She was shaking but look at me with hope. I hope this works too. "Go to the Mystery Shack, find the Dipper from my world, He's harmless. Show him Billy, tell him what happened, and fill him in on the fact Bill is after Billy. He'll protect you, okay. You can trust him. I'll stay here and pretend to be you while you and him save the town and possibly the world okay?" She looked down at the floor a moment gaining some courage to look back up at me and nod yes. Quietly she snuck to the dressing room back door. "Pepper would mind giving me a hand?" Dipper asked from the stage. I pointed at the door and gave her a thumbs-up. "S-sure D-Dipper, coming!" I replied. She quietly made her escape. Okay, now to put plan I'm-so-fucking-screwed into action.

At the Shack (Mabel Finally Left)

-Dipper-

I know it's only been ten minutes but how far could Pepper have gone? Didn't she hear Gideon say to hide in the forest close to the shack? What if she was in town? Did someone spot her? Where was she! Knock…knock. "Finally!" I sighed in relief, as I made my way over to the front door. "Pepper! Where have you been we were worried and-" Pepper started to shake her head no. "Um, Pep you okay? Hey, did you lose your head band…wait." She look at me out of breathe and worried. "Are you…Dipper? Pepper told me to come straight here…" Oh no.

Half an Hour Later and a Lot of Explaining

"HE KISSED HER HAND?" "Dipper what about that fact Bill is looking for Billy?" Pacifica asked in a defeated voice, almost like she's been saying this for the past ten minutes. "FUCKING KISSED IT?" "Forget it we're not getting through to him…" Mabel said pinching the bridge of her nose.
