CHAPTER 9
After a few days, Mabel decided on a fairy tale style wedding for Dipper and the fake Wendy. When they came over later to Mabel's tower, they loved the idea. Plans were set in for them to get married later that evening.
Meanwhile, the real Wendy was having another adventurous day out. In a fleeting moment, she wished her dad and brothers were there. Then, it hit her. Her dad. Her brothers. They're in danger. Bill was destroying the town. Then she remembered why she was there. She had to get Mabel and get her to leave with her, Dipper and Soos to save the town.
She couldn't believe how selfish she was and became ashamed at herself for letting it happen. She rushed out to find the others. As she ran, she decided to go to Mabel's tower first. When she arrived there, the Waffle Guards was gone. She tried to open the door, but it was locked. She then knocked on the door. There was no response.
She continued to pound on the door.
"C'MON, MABEL! OPEN THE DOOR!" Wendy yelled as she pounded on the door a few more times.
She quits, and gives an annoyed sigh. Wendy decides to check to see if she can find Dipper and Soos. She runs back into the city. She sees the sporting arena and sees people flocking in. She walks toward it and sees a poster with Soos on it with the caption:
WRESTLING
TONIGHT ONLY
5-1
HANDICAP MATCH
THE SILVER SASQUATCH
VS.
THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE
Soos must be crazy, Wendy thought to herself. She goes inside, and makes her way to the dressing room and sees Soos in his wrestling costume. Soos sees Wendy and waves to her.
"Hi, Wendy! What brings you here?" Soos asks.
"C'mon Soos! We got to find Dipper and Mabel and leave this place!"
"LEAVE?! Why?"
"Because if we don't, everyone we love and care for will get hurt or worse."
"What are you talking about?"
Wendy couldn't believe what she was hearing. Has Soos completely forgotten?
"Don't you remember? Bill trapped Mabel in a bubble. You, me, and Dipper went in to rescue her and to help defeat Bill."
Just then, El Topo and Soos' grandmother enter the dressing room and grab Wendy.
"Sorry, my son. I think this poor girl has gone delusional." El Topo says.
"NO, I'M NOT! LET ME GO! SOOS, HELP!"
Soos stand still, panicking. He doesn't know what to do.
Then, El Topo's and Soos' grandmother's eyes turn a bright yellow.
"YOU'D BETTER KEEP QUIET IF YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOOD FOR YOU." Soos' grandmother says in a deep, grating voice.
Soos then realizes that's not his grandmother.
"LET HER GO!" Soos yells.
"Soos! That's no way to talk to your Abuelita!" His fake grandmother replies.
"YOU'RE NOT MY ABUELITA!"
Soos' fake grandmother turns into a pile of bugs and scurries away.
El Topo releases his grip on Wendy and moves menacingly towards Soos.
"AND YOU ARE NOT MY FATHER!" Soos yells as he throws a punch.
El Topo turns into a pile of bugs as Soos' fist hits him in the gut.
Soos walks over to Wendy, helps her up, and hugs her.
"I'm sorry, Wendy."
"It's okay, Soos. Let's go see if we can find Dipper and Mabel."
They both leave the arena to start their search.
