Mabel: Hey comets! I bet you're wondering what happened last chapter. Well, we were attacked by hecklers, flamers, and reviews that were made in the minds and hearts of readers by not submitted, and Arylia disappeared… we aren't sure where she is. We think Arylia's safe, but we're not sure.
Dipper: Hey Bill! Is the tracking spell working yet?
Bill: Nope! It's like she disappeared off the face of the earth!
Mabel: I wonder where she went
*Meanwhile*
Ugh, where am I? *looks around at inky blackness* Uh, Bill? If this is your idea of a joke, this isn't funny… hello? Aw frack.

Bill:*shrugs*
Dipper: *whistles*
Stan: *slides away inconspicuously*
Mabel: Right?
Ford: Sure… Arylia does not own Gravity Falls... Oh, there are reviews to respond to...
Dipper: We can't do that!
Bill: *cheshire smile* Oh yes we can! And the two are from the same reviewer.
Dipper: Who?
Bill: Star Windbreaker
Dipper: *runs away into the distance* NOOOOOO!

Bill: Okay, this girl needs to relax, and I still don't understand why Arylia is planning on bringing her into the story
Mabel: Bill! We weren't supposed to tell them that!
Bill: Meh, who cares? Onwards!

Mabel: Uh, he didn't need to eat the broccoli to throw up… ew
Bill:*comes out* Okay, I'll eat the *throws up in mouth* thing… but only if Arylia returns… whenever that is… Now on with the story! Wait, how is there a story if Arylia's missing?
All muses: *shrug* mmm
Mabel: Let's keep looking
I blinked, then blinked again. It seemed Ford and Dipper were waiting for me to answer them, so I spoke three words that would make the most eloquent speaker follow my lead, "Alright, I'm out."
Ford looked at me with sympathy, "Believe me Arylia, I know how terrifying this is. But you can't just say "I'm out' and be done, this will follow you wherever you go
I huffed, "Well what do you expect?! I find out that there's a dream demon after me for some mysterious reason that no one seems to be able to tell me, I'm apparently visited by an angel who will only visit me if I'm its family member, and that's super dangerous apparently, I'm visited by another demon, I spend a night in a clearing where Bill's statue is, and then you tell me I can't escape this crazy business here! So tell me Ford, how do I remain calm?!" At this point I was in full on hysteria and was screaming at the man.
Dipper tapped my shoulder, "Uh, Arylia?"
I whipped over to him, "What?!" I snarled at him, fury coursing through me and more feral than I had ever felt before.
He pointed at my wrist, then my neck, then my eyes, "Look in a mirror." I reeled back in surprise, then turned a bit and walked over to a foot-length mirror to find, much to my surprise and horror, that the jewelry was glowing a bright gold and my eyes had changed from the normal violet to a furious gold and black. My eyes widened and I blinked, calming myself and forcing the hue to return to normal and the glow to die down. When my appearance was back to normal, I took a deep breath and turned around to face the others.
"Alright, if I can't tap out of this, what do I do now?" I put my hands on my hips and cocked an eyebrow.
Ford took off the colander helmet, "First, you could I finished translating part of the conversation you recorded and what I discovered is very disturbing." He walked over to a blackboard covered in chalk symbols and words.
I rolled my eyes, "Oh great, more bad news."
Ford nodded gravely, "It took a while, and several cups of Death Wish Coffee, but I was able to translate this section." The professor pointed at a section of words and symbols. "This section here: 'Axolotl saeva habet sensus iocus' is talking about a creature named Axolotl having a cruel sense of humor… don't look at me like that, I translated it correctly; I know my latin. I used to write notes to your brother in it and he would reply using spanish, that was our secret code growing up. I digress, this section, 'Quos volebat occidere nobis et quæramus ipsius circa eius consilium suum aperire quod abruptionis in quod vicesima secunda' is the second person saying that I will kill them and find out about 'his' plan to open the rift on the twenty second. I'm not sure which twenty second, but I will bet stanley's favorite suit that the rift the two were talking about is the rift between our world and the Nightmare Realm. I haven't gotten the rest finished quite yet, but I'm working on it."
I looked around at the chalk, "Hey, do you know what this means?" I pointed at the end of Pyronica's rant.
Ford looked over at where I was pointing, "Oh, yes. This part is when the female demon was talking about a 'cross breed'. If I had to guess, I would say that the girl the two demons you overheard is the one they were talking about. This is worrying, because if there truly is a cross breed in Gravity Falls, that girl would make it all the easier to open the rift."
Dipper furrowed his brow, "Um, Great Uncle Ford? Did they mention what type of cross breed she was? Like what different species she is?"
I gasped as I realized something, "Oh, that's what they were talking about!"
Ford and Dipper looked at me quizzically, waiting for an answer, "When I overheard them, they were talking about how a human girl wasn't actually human, but also demon. They also said that she shouldn't even exist… like you Pines shouldn't exist…"
Dipper looked shocked while Ford rubbed his chin, "I don't suppose they mentioned why we shouldn't exist, did they?"
I laughed sheepishly, "Uh, nope."
Dipper started rubbing his face and collapsed into a chair, "Well that's just great. Mabel and I come back for two days and I find out my whole family shouldn't exist… what are mom and dad going to say to that?"
My eyes widened at the mention of his parents, as it brought back a memory of the last time he mentioned them, "Dipper! We have to get our dance routine learned!"
Dipper groaned and peeked out from under his hands, "Seriously? You're thinking of that now?"
I rolled my eyes, "I just remembered, and Mabel will have a meltdown if we don't put all of our effort into this."
Dipper groaned again, but stood up and walked to the elevator, "Are you coming?"
I was about to answer but Ford interrupted, "She will in a moment, I just have to take a bit more blood to test." I groaned but turned to the older man. As the elevator rose, Ford took on a grave look, "Arylia, what you said earlier, when the jewelry activated."
I sighed, "I get it, your family has been through much worse. I know I shouldn't be complaining, and since this won't go away you won't be hearing anything negative from me about it."
Ford shook his head, "No, you're completely within your rights, and I understand. This is very frightening, but I'm not worried or upset about that. What I am worried about is you were visited by a demon, when did this happen?"
I forced a laugh, a deeply ingrained feeling warning me that I shouldn't tell Ford about Tad, "Oh, that. I was talking about that bird in the forest, it was gold and black and had golden cats eyes. Dipper saw it too, I honestly thought it was a demon when I saw it." I smiled and willed with all of my being for Ford to believe my poorly made story.
Much to my surprise, Ford smiled and his eyes cleared of worry, "Don't worry Arylia, that was just a bird. Albeit a tainted bird, but just a bird all the same. Now go on and learn that dance routine, I would rather not have to deal with Mabel crying all day whenever this talent show is."
I blinked and words poured out of my mouth automatically, "Two weeks until the talent show, so I'd better hurry up." I bit the inside of my cheek, the feeling that I had to hurry pressing against my chest. "See ya Ford!" I ran over to the elevator and climbed inside, frowning to myself in worry as the door closed and Ford shook his head in confusion.

Dipper and I bumped into eachother yet again as the chorus started.
Wendy and Mabel were cringing on the sidelines, "No offense, but you guys can't dance together at all."
Dipper rubbed his head, "Well excuse us, but this is kind of a hard song to come up with a routine to. Freestyle is what I do, not choreography."
I sighed, "I don't think we'll get this down by the time the talent show comes up, sorry Mabes."
Mabel's eyes began to well up with tears, but Wendy came just in time with a solution, "Look, I didn't want to have to do this, but I'd rather not see the Mabel waterworks and I kinda think that you and Dipper would make up a cute pair for this routine, so I'm gonna do it. I know this girl who I've been friends with since grade school, and she happens to be a choreographer in training at the dance studio on the edge of town. I guess I can ask her to do something for us, but I'm not sure you would want that. What she comes up with is pretty advanced, so you might not be able to keep up with it."
Dipper looked up at the redhead from the ground, "Wendy. Look at us. Literally anything is better than this, and I know that I'll practice the dance in my sleep if I have to."
I chuckled, it was so sweet how he wanted to make his sister smile, "Me too. C'mon Wendy, call her up!"
Wendy sighed and looked up at the sky, "I have pity for you two." With that, she walked in the direction of the town, leaving the twins and me there, Dipper on top of me and Mabel smiling like it was christmas.
"What's so funny?"
Mabel hummed, "Oh, nothing. Just, blackmail!" She whipped out a small silver camera and took a picture of us on the ground, causing Dipper to blush bright red.
He jumped off me, "C'mon Mabel, you still have summer's blackmail, don't make more!"
Mabel giggled, "Oh, it's not for you." My eyes widened at this and I jumped up, ripping the camera from her hands. "Hey!"
Dipper stared for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Oh boy, run Arylia! Run before she catches you!" I smiled and took off, deleting the picture from the camera with Mabel right behind me. We bobbed and weaved throughout the yard, dodging rocks and logs and miscellaneous objects strewn throughout the grass. As we neared the forest, Mabel tripped and went flying, landing on top of me. We lay on the ground giggling when a small, soft blue light appeared in the forest, seeming to emanate from thin air. Mabel gasped and pulled herself off of me, then backed up with one hand gripping my arm. Within moments, Dipper was next to us, getting ready to fight as Mabel took up an aggressive position. I stared at the light, preparing for anything to come from it.
Suddenly, the light flashed brightly, then faded, and in its place was a boy with cyan hair and a tuxedo of the same color. I blinked at the boy who was shaking, almost as though in fear, and who had blue manacles on his wrists.
"Uh, hey, are you okay?" I asked as I neared him. The boy looked up, revealing eyes of pure cobalt and a look of terror.
"Where am I?" He asked.
I furrowed my brow, "Um, Gravity Falls. How'd you do that?"
The boy gained a look of absolute horror and he fell back onto the ground, "Uuuugh… can you tell me what dimension this is?"
I blinked in confusion, then turned back to the twins, "Hey Dipper, what dimension is this?"
The boy shot up at that, then looked at the brunettes, "Oh no…" And with that, he fainted. I looked at the twins, who were looking at me and eachother, then back at the teen.
Oh boy.
~/ | \~
~\ | /~
~v~
I brought in a mug of warm tea to the living room where the strange teen was lying on the couch and switched out the cloth on the boy's head, worry pricking at my heart as I stared at his pale face.
Dipper had brought Ford up and the man was checking information from his the backup journals Stan had made, "I'm not sure who this is, but I know that he's not of this world. He asked you what dimension this was?" I nodded, "Perhaps he is from another dimension. And you say that he fainted at the sight of the twins?" I nodded again, checking the teen's temperature. "Hm, perhaps in this other dimension, Dipper and Mabel somehow hurt him. Or chained him up, that would explain the manacles. Dipper, would you mind touching them for a moment?" Dipper bit his lip, but touched them carefully with his index finger. At first, nothing happened, but then a bright blue glow illuminated the room and I couldn't see anything. When it faded, the chains on the teen's wrists were gone and he looked almost relaxed. I smiled at the relaxed state of the stranger, then gasped as his eyelids fluttered and opened.
I smiled at him, "Hey there."
The boy smiled shyly, then bolted upright, "Where am I, what dimension is this?"
Ford held his hands out in a calming manner, "Relax, you're in the Mystery Shack and this is dimension 35-B. What's your name?"
The boy sighed in relief and fell back onto the couch, "My name's Will, Will Cipher." At the exclamation of the last name, everyone in the room began to freak out in their own way. Mabel started running around in circles and waving her sweater clad hands in the air while screaming "EEEEK!", Dipper went pale as snow, and Ford was grinning from ear to ear.
"Will? It's me Stanford!"
Will looked up at Ford and a smile crossed his face, "Sixford!" Will jumped up and ran over to give Ford a big bear hug, much to everyone's surprise. Dipper actually fainted and Mabel just stopped, mouth wagging up and down like a fish out of water.
I just stood there watching the scene for a minute, until I facepalmed, "Alright, can someone tell me what the hey is going on here?"
Ford smiled and laughed, hugging Will back, "Will and I met when I was in the portal. He might be Bill's twin, but he's almost the complete opposite him. What happened to you?"
Will's smile slowly slipped off his face, "After I helped you and Amorette out of that arena, I worked on my spellcasting with Milly. After a few years I got a summon from dimension 37-C, where those two" At this he pointed at Dipper and Mabel, "used a spell from one of that dimension's journals to trap me and do their bidding. I finally worked up the energy to find my familiar and teleport both him and me into this dimension."
I narrowed my eyes at Will, "So this isn't your body… whose is it?"
Will looked at me and laughed, "When dream demons spawn, a special familiar is born somewhere. That familiar has an automatic pact with the demon, and vice versa, which makes having a body easier. My familiar was near death when I found him, apparently we both have a tendency to be beat up by others, so I slid his soul away temporarily to prevent the body's death. Right now, his soul is recuperating and I'm in control of the body. I could leave any time I like, but right now Cire Phliwl's soul wouldn't be able to sustain the body anymore, causing it to die and forcing his soul to enter my demon body… not exactly the best place for it to heal."
I rapidly did a mental check, "Cire Philwl? Isn't that Will Cipher just mixed around?"
Will nodded, "Yep, dream demons' familiar's names are always an anagram of the demon's name."
Mabel walked over to Will who was sitting down on the couch and levitating the tea mug to him, "So, you aren't going to destroy the world? Or trick us out of our bodies? Or try to kill everyone we love?"
Will looked up at Mabel and shied away, "Um, no… that's, ah, that's more my brother's thing."
Ford frowned, "Mabel? Could you spare a moment?" Mabel smiled and bounded over to him.
I sat down next to Will who was staring at the tea mug sitting on the table, "Are you okay?"
Will looked at me, "Y-yeah… I'm fine… so… do you live here with them?"
I nodded, "Well, not with them so much as, at their house. So where are you going to live?
Will frowned, "I didn't think that far ahead. I suppose I was hoping that Sixford would take me in if he had made it back to this dimension, that was part of the reason why I went to this dimension instead of the Nightmare Realm with my brother, he doesn't really care that much about me." I nodded in understanding, my sister seemed that way. I shook my head to clear my thoughts, I would not think about her, not after what she did.
I opened my eyes, "So, Bill isn't the nicest brother."
Will nodded sadly, "Yeah, he didn't do anything when the other demons beat me up, or he just joined in. He did need to get rid of his excess anger often, or our dimension would burn, so I'm glad I could help. I just wish he would have paid more attention to me when I needed him."
I sighed, "I know the feeling. Hey, I get that the twins in that other dimension hurt you, but our Dipper and Mabel aren't anything like that. Just get to know them. Dipper's smart, kind, and wouldn't hurt a fly unless it threatened him or his family, and Mabel's sweet, caring, and won't let anyone hurt you, even if it means she gets hurt."
Will looked at me and smiled hesitantly, "They sound nice… I just wish they didn't look like the Gleeful twins." He looked like he was about to say something else, but caught a glint of light from my necklace. He paled even further, "Where did you get that?"
I looked down, "This? Oh, a guy at school gave it to me. Why? Have you seen it before?"
Will shook his head slowly, "No, it just seems… strange." I cocked an eyebrow but said nothing because Ford and Mabel had just come back.
Ford smiled at Will, "Alright Will. This is Mabel Pines, my great niece, and the boy on the floor is Dipper Pines, my great nephew. I need to run some tests downstairs to make sure that the rift didn't open." With that, Ford left Will alone with Mabel, an unconscious Dipper, and me.
Mabel clapped her hands together, "Alright, how about we play some get to know you games!" I shook my head slightly, but Mabel just rushed on, "We could play truth or dare, 20 questions, the m&m game, or anything else! C'mon, what'll it be Will?"
Will just shrank back from Mabel's excited face, "Um, I, uh-"
I gave Mabel a look, "Oh, right… you just woke up… how about some Mabel Juice? It'll wake you right up!"
My eyes widened in horror, "Uh, Mabel, I don't think-" But she was already gone. I turned to Will, "Whatever you do, don't drink it! It's like coffee and nightmares had a baby."
Will was about to reply when Mabel burst in with a tall glass of Mabel Juice, "Here you go! I made it this morning, so its nice and fresh!" I shied away from the vile liquid but, against my warning, Will picked up the glass and took a long drink of it. Suddenly his eyes glowed bright blue and various objects in the room started floating around.
I screamed alongside Mabel as we were lifted into the air, I looked around and grabbed onto the fish tank bolted into the wall. I looked through the glass and the water directly into the beady black eyes of the axolotl. I turned my head to Will who was peering at the floating objects with a look of surprise and intrigue. Within moments, Ford ran into the room and gasped, "Will! What are you doing?" At the sound of Ford's voice, Will turned and all objects returned semi-close to the ground. The teen did a spit-take with the Mabel Juice and everything went back to normal.
Ford closed his eyes and rubbed them with his hand, "Alright, what happened?"
Will pointed at the glass of Mabel Juice on the floor, "Mabel brought me that and told me to drink it, so I did, then my powers activated without me even thinking about it."
Ford narrowed his eyes in thought, "Perhaps Mabel Juice activates demon's powers. We would have to test it, but Mabel, I believe you have created a power steroid!"
Mabel grinned from ear to ear, "YAY!"
I looked around at the now perfectly normal room, "This's just like what happened when I drank that stuff, well, except I sort of smashed everything."
Ford let out a small 'hmm", "Maybe you two are related somehow."
I shuddered, "I hope not. No offence Will, but I'd rather not be related in any way to Bill."
Will sighed, "I understand."
I looked down at the still unconscious form of Dipper, "Uh, Ford? Is he going to wake up any time soon?"
Ford looked to his great nephew and checked his pulse, "Of course. It may take a few more hours though, if he's anything like I was his age."
I cocked an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"
Ford chuckled, "Well, I have a fairly rare medical condition that can cause me to lose consciousness for periods of time when I am presented with something extremely frightening or startling. The metal plate in my head prevents it now, but I used to faint all the time back when Fiddleford and I worked on the portal in the basement. I suppose Dipper might have gained that trait from his mother."
I blinked for a moment and my jaw hung slack, "There's a portal in the basement?"
Ford stood up and walked over to us, picking up the glass of Mabel Juice to study closely, "What's in this?"
I blanched, "Nightmares and death."
Mabel shot me a skink eye, "Glitter, dogs milk, and dinosaur doll parts. Oh, and ice cubes!"
Ford shuddered and held the glass at arms length, "Eugh, I will be taking this down to my lab… I don't suggest drinking this anymore, it doesn't seem safe." Mabel looked extremely saddened, but inside my heart was jumping for joy.
I looked out the window at the setting sun, "Where's Will going to stay for the night?"
Mabel raised her hand and jumped ecstatically, "Ooh! Ooh! I know! I know! He can sleep in our room!" Will looked a little green for a moment but was unable to say anything as Mabel tore up the hall and stairs with him in tow.
I turned to Ford, "Uh, do you think that's a good idea?"
Ford sighed, "I'm not sure. I hope Will doesn't have a problem, but if there is I suppose he could stay in the lab along with me."
I shrugged, looked down at Dipper, and picked him up, "Alright. I'm going to take Dipper upstairs and go to bed, cya Ford."
As I started up the stairs, Ford called out to me, "Arylia! Wait." I turned back to the man, "If you have the time, come down to my lab. I would like to try something with your assistance."
I cocked an eyebrow at Ford, "Sheesh, that doesn't sound creepy at all. I'll be down." I giggled as Ford sputtered downstairs. Yeesh, this guy is heavier than he looks. I thought as I made it to the twins' door.
~/ | \~
~\ | /~
~v~
I walked out of the elevator and into Ford's lab where an army cot and the thought machine were set up.
"Whoah, what's goin' on here?" I asked as Ford whipped around, trench coat swirling with him.
"Ah, Arylia, there you are. I'm glad you asked: this is a Dream Watching Station, I was hoping that, with your permission of course, I could hook you up to the machine and find out if you truly can dreamwalk. So what do you say?" Ford gestured at the cot with his hands and smiled hopefully.
I sighed, "Alright, fine. So what do I do?"
Ford motioned to the cot and I sat down on it, "Just lay there and place the machine helmet on your head, then I'll take care of the rest. Just try to relax and sleep." I yawned, "That's shouldn't be too hard."
I nodded and took the colander hat, putting it on my head, "So, I just lay down?"
Ford nodded, "Yes, now try to sleep." I shrugged and laid down on the bed, barely hitting the pillow before everything went dark.
~/ | \~

~v~
I was in the bright glen from my dream last night, except this time it was already sepia.
I whipped around to see Tad sipping a cup of tea, "Hey."
Tad stopped drinking and glowed with joy, "Hello my dear, I trust that Will is safe, yes?"
I smiled at his british accent, "Yeah… wait, how'd you know about that?"
Tad laughed, "Oh, child, Will happens to be quite a good friend of mine. We grew up together in the same city for a few centuries before that dimension was burned. Now, enough about that, the past is past and we have quite a bit of work to do if you plan on *ahem* eliminating Pyronica."
I furrowed my brow, "What do you mean?" Tad whistled, causing the teacup to disappear and the world around us to change into a battle arena.
I looked around at the empty seats, "Alright, let us begin."
I turned my head back to Tad, "How do we do that?"
Tad whistled again, "Simple my dear, all we must do is find your trigger, then we can begin finding your abilities. Try whistling." I cocked an eyebrow but whistled a short tune, causing no effect. "Hmm, alright, how about clapping." Still nothing, "Clicking your tongue?" Nope, "Winking?" Nil, "Flicking your fingers? Blowing a raspberry? Clicking your heels?" Zip, zilch, nada.
Tad was getting frustrated and I was getting tired, "So what's supposed to happen?"
Tad was floating around and rubbing his… face? Chin? "Something should happen, such as fire appearing or something floating around."
I cocked an eyebrow and snapped a finger, "Just like that?" As I finished that phrase, the seats around us burst into silvery flames. I stared at the entrancing fire, then whipped my head over to Tad who was watching in shock.
He cleared his throat, "Well. Alright then. I suppose that makes sense… Arylia? Who were your parents?"
I looked at Tad incredulously, "Seriously? I'm not telling you that! You could kill them for all I know!"
Tad just blinked, then burst out in laughter, "Oh, oh dear child, no! I wouldn't do that, even if I could, I would not want to."
I flinched back in surprise, "Wait, so you can't kill them?"
Tad laughed a bit more, "Oh, goodness, no. I am an emotion demon, nothing of the physical plane truly, not unless I make a bet that would affect the physical plane."
I cocked an eyebrow, "So, there are different types of demons?"
Tad stopped laughing and just floated for a moment, "No one has told you any of this, have they. Alright then, it is time for a great learning session!" With that, the world around us transformed into a classroom, with me being seated at a desk. "Now then, what should I teach you first?"
Mabel: Help! We still can't find Arylia!"
*Meanwhile*
Hello!? Is anyone there?
*back with the muses*
Bill: I think she might be in the Void
Dipper: What's that?
Ford: The Void is a place where authors who do not achieve substantial numbers of reviews are sent. As she has only obtained two reviews for two chapters in eleven days, Arylia must have been sent there by the Fanfiction masters.
Mabel: Oh no! What can we do? Ford: *shrugs* Nothing. The comets must review the story at least three times before she is released, and that must continue for the duration of the story.
Dipper: Okay, comets, please review to release Arylia. Oh, and Follow and Favorite it too.
Mabel: Don't forget to vote on the theme for the da-
Dipper: *shoves hand over Mabel's mouth* Don't tell them what it is! But seriously, vote on it in the poll on Arylia's profile.
Bill: Hey! I got a signal! C'mon!
Mabel: WHOOPEE! Alrighty, ciao for now comets!
