Nightmares
Chapter Notes
Disclaimers: I do not own Gravity Falls
Author's Note's: Again this is mostly sad, unfortunately this story gets worse before it gets better.
(Back with Mabel...)
Sleep...
She was surprised that she actually managed to get some, but she was not disappointed; for here in her dreams reality was a lie.
And Dipper was still alive.
"Hey Mabel what do you think of this one?"
Mabel turned around to see that her dream version of Dipper was pointing to a pine tree.
"I think this will be a perfect Christmas tree for this year, don't you think so?" Dream Dipper asked.
Mabel nodded. "I think it's perfect!"
"This year's going to be so great!" Dream Dipper said marking the tree. "I wonder how everyone celebrates Christmas in a weird town like this."
Mabel laughed. "They probably decorate the trees with Gnomes!"
Dream Dipper, who was now leaning against the tree began to laugh too, but it wasn't Dipper's laugh.
No it was the cold sinister laugh of an evil Dorito she knew all too well. "Dipper?" Mabel asked.
He just kept laughing.
Mabel takes him by the collar and starts shaking him. "Dipper what's gotten into you?"
"Sorry Shooting Star, but Pine Tree can't talk right now."
Mabel froze in horror as the dream version of her brother looks up at her, but to her utter dismay it's not him at all.
"Bipper?" Mabel is stunned, her voice is questioning, but she knows those yellow silted eyes any where.
Bipper Laughs. "Wow Shooting Star you are the slower twin, I can't believe you actually thought your brother would be capable of such things. Some sister you are." he laughed.
"It was you..." Mabel backed away slowly in horror, images of her brother flashed before her eyes, his sweet smile shining back at her. "You made him..."
"Yep." Bipper admitted. "It was all me, turns out mine and your brother's deal was still in play pretty cool hu?"
Mabel was speechless how could not consider the obvious?
Of Course it was Bill! It was always Bill! He was the monster not Dipper!
"Me a monster?" Bipper laughed. "Don't you get it? The only monster here is you!"
NO!
How could she have been so stupid!
"He's mine now Shooting Star, your brother is my willing little puppet and it's all because you pushed him away." Bipper laughed. "So thanks Star, I really couldn't have done it without you!"
"Dipper's alive?" Mabel's is barely a whisper.
"Yep and he's my obedient little pet now, in fact he's taking down that little barrier of yall's as we speak!" Bipper bragged.
"Liar!" Mabel screams, but she can't find the will to believe her own words.
"That's right you know the truth." Bipper laughed. "The Last Star Child is Gone and it's all your fault. You've doomed them all, but hey I should of known I could count on you; after all didn't you give me this world last time too?"
Mabel screamed falling to her knees, willing the dream away.
Bipper just laughed. "Sorry Shooting Star, But this is the kind of nightmare that you can never wake up from!"
"No please wake up, please wake up!" Mabel screams.
But her prays are not answered, so instead she balls up into sweater town, and rocks back and forth screaming for it to end.
Unfortunately however her screams do little to drown out the cruel laughter of the enemy!
(Back with Ford…)
He had no intention of sleeping that night… However, Ford knew when he was dreaming.
The dream started off nice enough, he and Mabel were sitting on the couch out on the porch looking at old pictures in her scrap book.
"Look this is me and Dipper kick boxing!" Mabel said pointing at a picture. "And here we are at our first petting Zoo!" she said pointing to another.
"Is that traffic cone tapped on a donkey's head?" Ford asked.
"I was seven." Mabel exclaimed.
"Ford laughs full heartedly, and Mabel joins in, that is until she stops. "No it can't be!" she says.
Ford stops laughing and looks up to see…
"Dipper?!" He watches stunned as the boy walks out of the woods before him, his clothes covered in dirt.
There was no mistaking it! It was him!
And even though it was dream, Ford couldn't control the rush of joy that fell over him, he runs towards his nephew and embraces him. "Dipper my boy you're alright."
Dipper was alright, it was a dream come true.
Unfortunately for Ford however this dream turned into a nightmare real quick. "Wow Fordsy and here I thought we only had a business relationship." Dipper said. Only it wasn't Dipper.
NO!
Ford pushed the boy away, and to his horror Dipper eyes were yellow slits.
"Fordsy!" Bill gasped. "Is that any way to treat your darling nephew?"
"How dare you!" Ford screamed. "How dare you use him to get to me."
Bill laughed, as he wiped his mouth. "So you don't like it when I use him hu?" Bill asked. "Well than you really aren't going to like phase two of my plans."
"Phase 2?" Ford asked. "What are you talking about you insane Triangle!"
"Oh you haven't heard?" Bill suddenly shift out of Dipper, and appears before Ford as a large black shadow of himself. "Pine Tree and I have collected all 13 souls." Bill laughed. "Now it's on to phase 2-"
Ford was no longer listening, he was too stunned. Had he heard right?
'Did he just say Pine Tree, and I?!'
"No…" Ford whispered looking back to his nephew who was bowing behind Bill.
"Excuse me?" Bill asked.
But Ford wasn't talking to him. "Tell me it isn't true…" Ford begged Dipper. "Tell me you didn't!"
"Oh you can't blame him Fordsy." Bill said. "The boy's just not himself anymore." And with a snap of the demons finger Dipper's head rose.
Ford was stunned, he still had Bill's eyes.
"In fact Pine Tree hasn't been himself in a very long time." Bill mused.
"No please…" Ford backed away not wanting to see his nephew this way, but unable to look away. "Don't look at me with those eyes" he begged.
But Dipper didn't look away.
"This is your fault you know." Dipper said. "If you hadn't betrayed Bill it would be you by his side, and not me!"
"He's right Sixer." Bill agreed. "This is all your fault."
Ford fell to his knees, they were right, but his reasons were different from theirs. If he had never summoned Bill in the first place this would have never happen.
Tears stream down his face.
He's caused the end of the world yet again,
But this time he doesn't know if he has the will to save it!
(Back with Dipper…)
He knows he should fighting this…
But as Dipper approaches the barrier he finds that he had lost his will to fight Bill's control. He was monster, and this is what monsters did!
They destroyed the world!
He wasn't sure how he knew what to do, but as he stopped in front of the barrier Dipper realized he could actually see it, and feel it.
He touched a finger to it!
"Shatter and never return." He ordered sinisterly.
The barrier shatters into a thousand pieces like broken glass and then disappears.
But Dipper finds that he is not flinching with dread, or fearing for the lives of others. No those were not his concerns any more, he had his orders…
The deed was done, and now it was time to move on to his next task.
He had to prepare his master's remains for the resurrection, so without hesitation Dipper moves on his way.
He shows no remorse, even though he has just left the world, and the multiverse completely variable to the enemy!
