I'd like to thank all of my 192 followers and the 140 people who have favorite this story for staying with me. As we all know, Stan is about to be revealed. I cant wait for the episode on Monday. You can go to if you want to watch it the day it airs. Anyway, go on and read. There is a surprise at the end of the chapter.

Mabel pressed play.

"Dipper's guide to the unexplained," Pacifica read aloud as the video started. He was talking about some sort of food when something came out and knocked the camera down. "What was that?!"

"Sh! You're about to see," Mabel said with a smile.

Pacifica kept watching. Dipper picked up the camera and went to wake up Mabel. It took a few seconds with her saying something about sleeping forever. It wasn't until Dipper said that the thing was eating the left over Summerween candy that she finally woke up. "What!" She screamed. Then Dipper turned the camera to the thing. She could hear Mabel saying that it looked like a tiny little man. The next thing she knew, Dipper was holding a sign that said "Dipper's guide to the unexplained #76 "That thing?"" That thing was eating all of the candy inside the plastic Jack-O-Melon. Mabel was telling it to put it down. That thing started to lick it instead. It skipped to the next scene with Dipper covered in stuffed animals and holding a gulf club and a trash can. He called it his armor. He told Mabel to catch this on tape in case he died or something. Pacifica couldn't help but giggle at that. After a little mishap in the room, that thing climbed out of the room from the ceiling and went downstairs. When they got there, that thing disappeared. He was asking Mabel if she saw where it went when that thing jumped on his head, knocking him out and then running somewhere else. It skipped to the next scene. A kitchen she guessed. That thing was on top of the fridge, eating the candy. Dipper threw a can at it and that thing threw candy back. Dipper hid behind a chair to avoid it. That thing didn't stop throwing candy. Mabel was suggesting that he should try catching the candy in his mouth. He was declining it before a piece actually got caught in his mouth and ate it. He starting to say that it was a good idea when a chocolate bar hit him in the face, knocking him down, and giving that thing a chance to escape. You could see Mabel's running feet as she ran after it with the camera into the living room. That thing stepped on a remote and the TV was turned on. He turned to look at it and was instantly hypnotized, just as Mabel had said in the video. Dipper walked up to it laughing. He insulted it before he, too, got glued to the TV. It skipped to the next scene with both twins eating candy while the monster ate golf clubs. Dipper asked if they should do something about the monster. Mabel replied that they should worry about the monster later and just eat the candy. That's when that George guy came out and said high to them all. Except he mistook that thing for their great uncle. Dipper then ended the video saying that the next might be about getting rid of the monster. And it was over. "What the heck was that thing?" She asked Mabel.

Mabel smiled and shrugged. "We never found out. It disappeared after it finished all the golf clubs."

Pacifica pondered on this. So there were other creatures in this town. First it was the fairies, then those golf balls, and now that thing. She smiled to Mabel. "Let's watch another."

"Oh, I have to show you my favorite one. It's so hilarious." She looked through the camera and found what she was looking for. She pressed play and Pacifica scooted closer to get a better look.

The video started with two fingers trying to crush Dippers head. He introduced both he and Mabel. After getting his sister to stop what she was doing, he went on to what he was saying. Now it was about his great uncles tattoo. "Dipper's guide to the unexplained #23 "Grunkle Stan's Tattoo." He showed pictures as he went on about what it could possibly be. They were all of a strange blue ink showing on the old man's shoulder. He said that they didn't know what it was, but they were going to find out today. Then Mabel interrupted him saying, "Right after another exciting episode of "What's under Mabel's bandage!" It cut off after she started taking it off. Pacifica turned to Mabel. "What was under the bandage."

"Just this dumb cut," she said showing her knee had a slightly visible cut.

Pacifica nodded and they went back to watching the video. It skipped to the next seen. Him and George were standing next to a thermostat. Dipper started talking. "Stan doesn't take off his undershirt." He ran up to the camera and said matter of factly, "Obviously to hide his tattoo." He then went back to his position. "But me and Soos are about to "turn up the heat"." He said with quotations, "...on this mystery." He then started turning up the heat. She let out a snort. Soos, she finally figured out his name, laughed. "Literally," he said cheerfully. "I love how you come up with stuff like that." It skipped to the next scene. There was their great uncle sitting and reading a book. It seemed like the camera was hidden in behind something. Then Soos came out and started fanning himself. "Woo, hot in here today, huh, Mr. Pines?" He gave a thumbs up and a wink to the camera. "Probably be a lot cooler if we...worked without our shirts on," he took off his shirt and Pacifica couldn't help but let out some giggles. She started laughing harder as she saw Mr. Pines' eyes go wide. Mabel was laughing by her side. "Am I right," Soos asked. Mr. Pines stopped reading the book and looked at Soos confused. "Soos," he said, "I will pay you to put your shirt back on." Ok, she now couldn't stop giggling. Mabel was right. Her laughs were going to turn into snorts soon. "Don't be shy, Mr. Pines." Soos said before he climbed on a shelf and lied down. "Bodies are nothing to ashamed of." He patted his belly. "Watch the shop for a minute, Soos," Mr. Pines replied. "I need to go find a melon baller and pull my eye balls out," he said as he walked. Pacifica couldn't stop laughing. Mabel was a bit more in control and trying to calm her down.

"S-stop laughing," she said in between giggles. "There plenty more, watch."

Pacifica stopped laughing but there was still a smile. When she looked back at the camera she could see Soos playing with his fat. She burst out laughing again. It skipped to the next scene with Dipper. "Ok," he started. "Plan B." He turned the camera to Stan, who sitting and watching TV. "Heavens, is that poison oak on your shoulder," he said, a little rehearsed. "Let me scratch it for you." He started reaching for it, but Stan smacked his hand away. "Kid, if your trying to see my tattoo, you're going to have to try harder than that." Then his eyes widened, as if he had said too much. "Aha!" Dipper yelled. "I thought you said you didn't have a tattoo?" Stan replied with, "I don't." He held up a red marker. "But you do." Dipper sounded confused when he said that. "What do you mean I-" Then Stan came up to him and Dipper started screaming. Pacifica and Mabel smiled at each other. It skipped to the next scene. "Ok," Dipper started. He now had the word Goober on his forehead and his hair was back a little showing his birth mark. Pacifica and Mabel burst out laughing. "Goober," Mabel laughed.

"And there's his adorable birthmark!" Pacifica gushed.

Mabel stopped laughing and looked at her. "You know about his birthmark?"

Pacifica nodded. "I saw it, like, three days ago."

Mabel smiled. "He only shows to people he trusts, you know."

Pacifica smiled. And they kept watching the video. "Stan's in the shower," Dipper explained. "I wish it hadn't come to this, but sometimes you have to do terrible things for science."

Pacifica's eyes widened. She turned to Mabel. "He's not going to go in there, is he?"

"Trust me," she said with a smudged smile. "You're going to want to see this." They went back to the video.

"I believe in you, Goober," Mabel said in the video. "Dipper," he corrected. "Just say Dipper." He then grabbed the camera and walked to the bathroom door. He opened the door and walked inside, through the steam, and stopped at the shower curtains. He pushed them aside and waited for the steam to cool off only to see his Grunkle Stan fully clothed in the shower. "You're never going to see it kid." He stated. "Never going to see it," he said getting angrier with ever word. "How long have you been standing there," Dipper asked before his Grunkle jumped him yelling, "Give me that camera!" Pacifica was snorting now.

"Oh, this is hilarious!"

"Keep watching, keep watching," Mabel urged, happily. Pacifica did. It skipped to the next scene. It showed Dipper outside somewhere. He started talking. "So, uh, I just figured I'd chill out on the roof for a while." His eyes widened as he heard Stan's yell in a distance, "I'm going to find you, kid!" After a moment of shock, Dipper became serious again. "Well, that's it for this episode. Stan's tattoo remains a mystery. But who knows what other secrets are waiting to be uncovered?" And it was over.

"Ok, that was just...hilarious." Pacifica said, wiping tears from her face from all that laughing.

"I know, right!" Mabel wiped her tears too.

They both stopped laughing when they heard some sort of static sound. Pacifica turned to the speaker as she heard Beethoven's voice say, "Pacifica, there are some friends here to see you."

She got off her bed, walked to it, pressed a button, and said, "Alright, Beethoven, I'll be down there in a sec." She let the button go and turned to Mabel. "You want to get something to eat?"

Mabel pondered on this. "Can I make something?"

Pacifica pondered on this. She smiled. "Go nuts."

Mabel jumped off the bed and they both ran through the hot pink doors of the room. They both came out a few seconds later seeing as it was the closet. "We never speak of this," Pacifica said as she opened the right door.

"Agreed," Mabel said as she walked through the right door. They both took off in the hallway.

Now at the entrance Pacifica pointed Mabel to the kitchen. "Through those doors is the dining room. Through another set of doors inside is the kitchen."

"Alright! I'll make something spectacular!" Then she ran towards the kitchen, singing something about Mabel Juice.

Pacifica smiled as she watched her go. She was right. Mabel was like Anna. But, in a Mabel way. No one could ever replace Anna, but Mabel just might be what she needed to heal. She walked to where Beethoven was standing and said, "Open it." He pulled the lever and opened the gates, they awaited their arrival. It didn't take long. Soon Beethoven was opening the door, letting two familiar faces walk in.

"Hey, Pacifica-" Amanda started but then got a good look at her. "What happened to you?" She had a look of horror.

So did Tiffany. "What are you wearing?"

Pacifica looked down at her outfit and saw nothing wrong. "What's wrong with it?"

"Everything!" Tiffany yelled. "You cant wear a red shirt with red pants!"

"And that diamond so doesn't match that ring."

Pacifica had totally forgotten that she was wearing the two accessories. The crystal that Dipper gave her and the ring she made with it. She looked at them confused. "I don't see what's wrong with wearing something comfortable."

Tiffany looked at her liked she had said the most stupid thing. "You're acting like...her."

Pacifica didn't like how she said the word her. "And who is "her"," she asked.

"The freak," Amanda answered.

Pacifica lost it. No one talked about her that way! "You know what. I think you're wrong. She wasn't a freak, she was an amazing person that life decided to mess with. That others decided that they could pick on! She wasn't a freak! And the only freaks in this world are the ones who think they're better than everyone else! And that's you! That's us!" She wasn't about to let the bad she had done go out the window. She sighed. "And I'm not apart of it anymore. I know, now, that no one is better than anyone."

Tiffany seemed shocked. "Are you still angry about what happened to her? The idiot did it to herself."

Pacifica shook her head. "You wouldn't care, would you? You still think it's her fault, but it's not. She didn't kill herself because she hated herself! Anna killed herself because of people like us! People that think they're so much better! People that just cant except that fact that no one in this world is perfect! That there are people in this world that loved being themselves! You see me right now!" She gestured to herself. "The glasses, the fun clothes, the worthless jewelry! This is me! And if you cant accept that then get the heck out of my house because I'm sick of people who think like you."

Tiffany and Amanda were shocked. None of them moved for a good three seconds. Then Tiffany started to glare at her. "You're one of us you know."

"Not anymore," Pacifica shot back without missing a beat.

"Let's go, Amanda," Tiffany said as she walked towards the door. Amanda followed. Though, she looked like she didn't want to. As they walked out of the door Beethoven opened, Tiffany turned to Pacifica for the last time. "Good luck finding better company."

Pacifica decided to hold the door, letting Beethoven just stand there. "Trust me, Mabel is whole lot better company than you." She slammed the doors after a quick second at Tiffany's priceless expression. She smiled to herself. One less thing to hide herself from.

"Is that what happened to Anna?" Pacifica turned around so fast she almost tripped. Beethoven could feel trouble happening so he backed away into the shadows. Pacifica turned to see Dipper holding a purple book she knew all too well. "She killed herself?" She didn't know what to say.

Mabel was looking through a whole bunch of things through the fridge when she heard someone walk in. "Stupid, stupid, stupid," he was muttering under his breath. Mabel took a glance at him. He had glossy blonde hair, it should belong to a superstar. But, instead, it belonged to a boy no older than she.

"Hey," she said. He seemed to have barely noticed her. "Why are you calling yourself stupid? That's a pretty dumb way to motivate yourself." He didn't answer. He just kept staring at her. She was starting to feel uncomfortable. "Are you going to answer me?"

He blinked twice. "Are you talking to me?" She nodded. He looked back at her question. "I'm lost something that I wish I didn't." He said with a scowl. He didn't know why, but he felt he could share his problems with this girl.

"You shouldn't scowl. You'll get wrinkles on your pretty face," she said before she reminded herself she was married. "What did you lose?"

He sat on a stool, she closed the fridge and leaned against it. "Something I've been after for three years now. Sh- It. It never seemed to tolerate me at all. And I don't know why?"

"What did you do to provoke it?" When the heck did she learn that word?

He looked back at the things he did. He always interrupted her, never did what she liked, never even gave a thought of what she wanted. That's why he lost her. And to Dipper. He seemed to be perfect for her. Always seeing what she thought fit, always paying attention to her. He was always by her side and she wanted him to be. With him, she smiled more. He lost to a commoner. And there was no rematch in this. He sighed. "I never noticed what it meant to me."

Mabel felt sympathetic for this boy. Whoever he was. "Just think of it this way," she tried. "If it's happy, you should be. If it moved on, you should too."

Atlántico thought about it. Pacifica was done with him. He knew it. She was with Dipper. She was happy. Atlántico loved her, so he should be happy that she was happy. But there was one problem. "My father wanted me to win it, though."

"Well, then, your father is stupid," she said bluntly. He was actually shocked to hear such a thing. No one had ever insulted his father. Maybe it was because she didn't know who his father was. "Was it impossible?"

That caught him off guard. "What was impossible?"

"Winning the thing?" This guy had hearing problems.

He shrugged. Then he nodded. "Yeah, it was pretty impossible. Especially for someone like me." Someone who didn't really listen to others. He wondered why he was listening to this girl.

"Then he shouldn't push you. You're father is supposed to guide their son through life, showing him that there are things that can happen and things that cant. It's life. You cant win everything. No one's perfect." Atlántico took those words home. No one had ever said that. Never. He always thought of himself as perfect. But, if this girl was right, no one was perfect. Not even him. "What was it you were trying to win, anyway? A pet or something?"

He looked up at her for the first time. When he was talking to her, he didn't really notice that her hair was a nice shade of brown, or that her eyes were like chocolate, or that her skin was the nicest shade of peach. Maybe he should move on. Maybe he should be happy. He smiled. Not those stupid smirks or mouthtips to make it look like he was smiling. He smiled a real smile. It vanished when the girl landed on the floor, unconscious.

I will give a huge spoiler to the person that can tell me why Mabel fainted! You have to PM me though, so no one steals your answer.
