The Deep End Part 2
"THIS THING IS GONNA EXPLODE IN TEN SECONDS!" shouted Wendy scared.
"Some leader you turned out to be! Leading us right into a trap!" said Toby angrily, holding Waddles for comfort.
Wendy looks at the air vent over the door and shouts "Uh, Dipper! Cut that air vent open!"
"Way ahead of ya, babe!" shouted Dipper, pulling out his spear and cutting the air vent open.
"Bombs away!" shouted Wendy, throwing the bomb out the air vent into the pool area. The bomb goes off and blasts the door open. Before it could hit Wendy, Dipper pulls her out of the way, and the door hits the wall instead. The gang steps outside.
"Well, dudes. I'd say pool's closed." said Sous awkwardly.
"Yeah. But where's the merman?" asked Dipper curiously. Suddenly, a knife flies by and almost hits Dipper, but hits the wall instead. "Never mind! I think I know who tried to blow us up! Come on out, Gideon!"
"Oh, you're so clever." said Gideon giggling, and stepping out of the bushes with a cooler of his own. "It's Lil' old me, and I plan to kidnap this merman and bring him to my house and keep him as a pet. Thus, only I will date Mabel, and not this fish!" Gideon runs to Tyler's motorcycle, which he rode to the pool instead of riding in the mystery cart, straps the cooler to it, puts on the helmet, gets on the bike, and drives away.
"No! NO! HE'S STEALING MY BIKE!" shouted Tyler shocked. The gang runs to the mystery cart and drive after Gideon. Tyler starts to get mad. "Gideon stole my BIKE!"
"And he's wearing your helmet, Ty! Nasty!" said Mabel jokingly.
Dipper attaches his water balloon catapult to the top of the cart, loads it up, and starts firing water balloons at Gideon. One of the balloons hits Gideon in the hair, and he gets mad. He fires a ball of energy at a lamppost and it falls on the mystery cart, but everyone is unharmed. Gideon jumps off the bike and it crashes into a wall and breaks. Tyler gets up and runs to his bike in shock.
"Oh no! OH NO! My motorcycle! It...it...AH!" shouted Tyler in anger. He looks to his left and sees Gideon getting away with the cooler. He goes to the mystery cart, pulls out two water balloons and throws one of them at Gideon.
"That's for stealing my bike!" shouted Tyler angrily, throwing the other balloon at Gideon and hitting his hair. "And THAT'S for trashing it!" Gideon fires a ball of energy at Tyler and knocks him back.
Dipper gets up, noticing Gideon running off with the cooler and says "Guys! He's getting away!"
"No he's not!" shouted Toby in determination. "Mabel! Give me a carrot!" Mabel gives Toby a carrot, and Toby shows it to Waddles. Waddles runs to Toby, and because of his miniature size, Toby jumps on Waddles' back and rides him like a horse. "Ha ha! All hail Sir Toby the bold! Tally ho!"
Toby rides Waddles after Gideon, with everyone else in hot pursuit. Sheriff Blubs says "If that kid is this psycho, he'd probably never get a date!"
"Yeah!" said Dur-land.
"What in darn tooting runs in that kid's head?" asked the old kook.
"Don't matter! He's going down!" shouted Tyler in anguish.
Meanwhile, with Gideon, he didn't notice that he was pulling the cooler to the lake instead. So he says "Darn it! Oh well, I might as well let the merman die trying to get back to water."
Just as he was about to dump the cooler, Toby comes in riding Waddles and rams Gideon to the ground.
"Ha ha! Here's your treat." said Toby, giving Waddles half the carrot. "Now giddy up!" Toby and Waddles ram Gideon again, and he falls into the lake.
The rest of the gang catch up to Toby and see that he has held his own against Gideon. Toby jumps off Waddles and says "Ha ha! Now that's what I was born to do: Stand up for myself. Huh. You know what they say: In the hands of a ninja, anything can become a weapon. Including my new pal here." Toby gives Waddles the rest of the carrot and pets his head. "Think I'll nickname him 'Waddles the swift.'"
"Not once have I said this ever to you, Toby. But you are awesome." said Dipper impressed. "And that's saying a lot."
Tyler picks up a rock, throws it at where he thinks Gideon is, and says "And you owe me a new bike, fatso!"
Everyone looks to the trees on the other side of the lake and see Gideon running for his life and disappearing into the wilderness.
"Well, he got away from us again." said Blubs disappointed.
"He's probably heading for his house." said Dur-land.
"Don't worry, guys. One of these days, we'll catch that Gideon." said Wendy in determination. She looks at Dipper and says "Oh, and Dipper? I think maybe you should stay being the leader, considering you know how to handle not leading people into a trap."
"No problem, babe. Now come here and give me a kiss." said Dipper who hugs and kisses Wendy, who hugs and kisses him back.
Mabel dumps the cooler into the lake, and the merman is free. The merman looks up at Mabel, smiles, and motions for her to come closer. She comes closer and the merman kisses her on the lips, before retreating back to the ocean. Mabel is shocked.
"OH MY GOSH! THAT WAS MY FIRST KISS!" shouted Mabel excited.
"Congratulations, Mabel. You're finally growing up." said Blubs.
"You said a mouth full." said Dur-land.
"And a darn tooting kiss full of love." said the old kook.
Mabel walks over to Tyler, who is on his knees and his hands are covering his face trying to hide his tears.
"OH! I CAN'T BELIEVE I LOST MY BIKE" he shouted in depression.
"Look on the bright side, Tyler. You may have lost your motorcycle, but Toby here gained a pig stallion." said Mabel, scratching Waddles behind his ears.
"Can we buy him a saddle?" asked Toby. "Cause that would be perfect. The world's first ever piggyback horse ride."
"If they make a saddle small enough for Waddles." said Dipper.
"Yes! I get my own stallion!"
"Don't get used to it." said Blubs.
"Hey, how bout tomorrow, we go to the pool, and do some more roughhousing water balloon fights." suggested Dipper.
"YEAH!" everyone shouted.
They all ran to the mystery cart, repair it, and get back to their homes. Just another amazing adventure for the mystery gang.
End of chapter. Personally, I thought that maybe Toby should be more than just the cameraman in the back, ya know what I mean? Ciao, dudes.
