Chapter 5: Inconveniencing: Half off Life!
(Emily's P.O.V)
Another day, another episode and more playing a part of it. Dipper was reading the journal while Mable was somehow spinning on the globe.
"Mabel, do you believe in ghosts?" Dipper asked.
"I believe you're a big dork! Ha ha ha!" Mable laughed and Dipper puts the pencil on the globe and it stopped, causing Mable to fall off. Stan then came inside.
"Soos, Wendy, Emily!" He cried and they three of us turned to our boss. Soos having to run up panting.
"What's up, Mr. Pines!" Soos said.
"I'm headin' out. You three are gonna wash the bathrooms, right?" Stan asked and I almost gagged.
"Yes sir!" Soos saluted.
"Absolutely not!" Wendy said, saluting at well.
"No chance, no way." I saluted.
"Ha ha! You stay out of trouble!" Stan said and left the Shack. Wendy then walked over to the curtain.
"Hey guys! What's this? A secret ladder to the roof?" Wendy said as she unveiled the curtain that exposed the ladder. Soos then ran over.
"Uh, I don't think Mr. Pines would like that." Soos said nervously.
"Huh?"
"Uhhhhh..."
"Huh?"
"You're freaking me out, dude!" Soos said.
"Relax Soos, Stan isn't here to yell at us. Plus he already breaks enough rules." I said.
"Can we actually go up there?" Dipper asked excitedly as Wendy started to climb the ladder.
"Sure we can! Roof time! Roof time!" Wendy chanted. "Roof time, Roof time!" Everyone but Soos chanted as we climbed the ladder. Making our way up on the roof we crossed over to find Wendy's secret spot.
"Alright, check it out!" Wendy said as we landed on the platform.
"Did you put all this stuff up here?" Dipper asked.
"I may or may not sneak up here during work, all the time, everyday." Wendy said and grabbed a pinecone from the bucket and threw it out the totem pole, hitting the target.
"Cool!" Dipper cried. "Me first!" Mabel cried as well and they each through a pine cone. I did as well, but it hit above the target.
"Darn, to high." I said, snapping my fingers in fake annoyance. Dipper's pinecone hit a parked car and the alarm went off, causing him to blush.
"Jackpot! High five." Wendy exclaimed and held up her hand for Dipper, who just stared in awe. "Don't leave me hangin'." She said before Dipper gave her the high five. A car then pulled up blasting loud music.
"Oh hey, it's our friends!" Wendy said, giving me a nudge. Thompson then stopped the car and waved his hand out.
"Wendy, Emily!" He cried.
"Hey, you guys aren't going to tell Stan about this, are you?" Wendy asked and Dipper gave the famous 'zipped lips' and Wendy returned the gesture.
"You go ahead, I'll stay so Stan doesn't get suspicious." I said. Wendy gave a nod in understanding.
"You better come next time." She fake threatened then waved to the twins. "Later dorks!" She said before sliding down the tree and jumping into the car.
"Let's get out of here!" Thompson cried and they drove off.
"Later Wendy! Heh heh heh! Good times!" Dipper laughed as the car disappeared from view.
"Uh oh!" Mabel gushed.
"What?" Dipper asked defensively.
"Somebody's in love!" Mabel said, poking Dipper.
"Ooooooh!" I joked.
"Yeah, right! I just think Wendy's cool, okay? It's not like I lie awake at night thinking about her!" Dipper said slightly nervously.
"Wait until tonight." I winked and headed back down.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Dipper asked, but I didn't give an answer.
Later that night I was in my treehouse, lying awake and I could practically hear dipper say 'Uh oh'. I laughed to myself.
"Cue theme song."
The next day was pretty normal, that is until music started to play.
"Random dance party for no reason!" Mabel exclaimed and she, Wendy and I started to dance right there in the Shack.
"Go! Go! Go! Go!" Wendy and I chanted and I noticed Dipper writing on the clipboard and nodding at it.
"Dipper!" Wendy called and Dipper lost grip of the clipboard for a moment before catching it.
"Uh what, yes?" He asked awkwardly.
"Aren't ya gonna get in on this?" Wendy asked as we kept dancing.
"I don't really dance." Dipper said walking up to us.
"Yeah, you do! Mom used to dress him up in a lamb costume and make him do...The Lamby Dance!" Mabel whispered dramatically.
"Now is not the time to talk about the Lamby Dance." Dipper muttered angrily.
"I think it sounds cute." I added, not sure if it helped Dipper feel better.
"Lamb costume? Wow, is there like little ears and a tail or...?" Wendy asked.
"Well uh, uh..." Dipper seemed to be lost for words as Mabel held up a picture of young Dipper looking adorable in the lamb costume.
"Dipper would prance around and sing a sing about grazing." Mabel explained and I giggled at the photo.
"Awww, that nothing to be embarrassed about! You were young and it's cute." I said and Dipper gave an awkward smile. The clock then struck 6:00 signaling the end of the day.
"Hey, look at that! Quittin' time! The gangs waitin' for us." Wendy said and we started heading out.
"Wait! Why don't I-or we come with you guys?" Dipper asked.
"Ooh... I don't know. Our friends are pretty intense. How old did you guys say you are?" Wendy asked.
"We're thirteen! So, technically a teen." Dipper said.
"All right. I like your moxie, kid! Let me get my stuff." Wendy said and started to leave.
"I'll join you." I said and left with her. Once we got outside Lee and Nate were holding Thompson upside down.
"In the belly! In the belly!" The two chanted and Robbie was ready to throw a bean, but Wendy got her own out.
"Come on! Hurry up!" Thompson whined and before Robbie could throw his Wendy tossed hers and it flew right into Thompson's belly button and Robbie looked at his bean in confusion and they turned to Wendy who straightened her position and smiled.
"Nice one." I said and we high-fived one another.
"Wendy, Emily!" Everyone cheered.
"Wendy, Emily, Wendy, Emily!" Nate chanted and we all walked over to the van.
"What's up!?" I asked casually and everyone waved at me.
"Hey guys! These are our pals from work, Mabel and Dipper." Wendy said and gestured to the twins.
"I chewed my gum so it looks like a brain! BLAH!" Mabel exclaimed before stuck out her tongue which had a wad of gum on it.
"She's not much for first impressions. Unlike this guy!" Dipper said, pointing to himself. When no one showed a reaction he started to get nervous. "...this guy..." He muttered.
"So are you two, like, babysitting, or-?" Robbie started ask and I rolled my eyes.
"Come on, Robbie! Guys, this is Lee and Nate." Wendy introduced and the two punched each other before laughing.
"Tambry." Wendy said, and the girl she was referring to was glued to her phone.
"Hey..." She said without looking up.
"Thompson, who once ate a runover waffle for 50 cents." Wendy continued.
"Don't tell them that!" Thompson said sheepishly.
"Sorry, but they were gonna figure it out anyway." I laughed.
"And Robbie. You can probably figure him out." Wendy finished.
"Yeah, I'm the guy who spray-painted the water tower." Robbie said. As of it was something to be proud of.
"Oh, you mean the big muffin!" Dipper said.
"Um, it's a giant explosion." Robbie spat and we all turned to water tower to se the muffin explosion.
"Hehe! Kinda does look like a muffin!" Lee said, causing him and Nate to snicker. Robbie, however, gave a death glare to Dipper.
"Hey, be careful where you point daggers." I warned him and he just stared at me.
"Uh, what?" He asked and I raised an eyebrow.
"You know...how some people call...you know what never mind." I said.
"Let's hurry it up, guys. I got big plans for tonight!" Wendy said and we all hit in the car, I was in the back seat with Mabel and Dipper tried to get in the passenger seat up front, but Robbie slammed the door.
"Sorry kid, I'll ride shotgun alright?" Robbie said and Dipper climbed in the back between Mabel and I.
"Okay just, before we go, my mom said you guys aren't allowed to punch the roof anymore, so..." Thompson said and the rest of the teens started punching and chanting.
"Thompson! Thompson! Thompson!" They chanted, I chanted but decided against punching the roof. We drove off and I saw Mabel take a on from Dipper and cross out 'You Stink!' and replace it with 'You look nice today!'.
"Ha! This is gonna blow someone's mind!" She said happily.
"Mabel, please!" Dipper whispered.
"What, am I embarrassing you in front of your new GIRLFRI-" Mabel was cut off by Dipper slapping his hand over her mouth and pulled it away.
"Ugh! Did you just lick my hand?" He asked, grossed out.
"Just be glad she didn't bite it." I said and Mabel laughed. I couldn't help but picture Stan watching that black and white show, still wonder what happened to the remote...eh, Soos will fix the tv...I think. After a quick car ride Thompson parked it in front of the creepy store and we all got out and made our way to the fence.
"There it is, fellas! The condemned Dusk 2 Dawn!" Wendy announced.
"Ha, cool!" Lee and Nate exclaimed.
"Neato! Mabel said in awe.
"Creepy, but intriguing." I added.
"Why'd they shut it down, was it like a health code violation, or-" Dipper asked nervously.
"Try murder!" Nate said.
"Some folks died in there, the place has been haunted ever since!" Lee explained.
"Gee no wonder it shut down, people are scared of murderers, who knew?" I said sarcastically, causing the others to laugh.
"Nice." Mate said giving me a thumbs up.
"This town has such a colorful history!" Mabel said excitedly.
"Wha... Are you guys serious?" Dipper asked.
"Yeah! We're all gonna die!" Wendy said in a fake worried voices he playfully punched Dipper. "Chill out man! It's not as bad as it looks!" Wendy assured him.
"So, who wants to climb first?" Lee asked.
Later everyone but Dipper made their way on the fence and to the ground. Dipper climbed up, but he was taking his sweet time getting down.
"Come on, Dipper!" Wendy called up to him.
"Okay Okay! Just gotta get this foot over." Dipper said.
"Dude, your sister did it!" Robbie exclaimed and gestured to Mabel who was somehow running sideways on the ground in a circle.
"WOOP WOOP WOOP WOOP WOOP!" She said happily, I couldn't help but laugh as Lee climbed the fence.
"Hey, you know what. Just... There you go." He said and threw Dipper of the fence and he landed with a thud. "Ha! S-sorry dude!" Lee said.
"Good job throwing the kid off the fence, genius!" Nate laughed.
"Your mom's a genius." Lee retorted as he climbed down. We headed to the store and Wendy looked in the window as Robbie tugged in the doors.
"Wow! This place is amazing!" Wendy chuckled happily.
"I think it's, it's stuck!" Robbie huffed and let go of the door handles.
"Let me take a crack at it!" Dipper offered, walking up to us.
"Oh yeah. I can't get in, but I'm sure Junior here is gonna break it down like Hercules!" Robbie said sarcastically.
"Come on, leave him alone. He's just a little kid." Wendy defended.
"Yeah, ever heard of brains vs. brawn?" I huffed, crossing my arms. Dipper then walked determinedly to the dumpster and jumped on it, climbing to the roof.
Whoa kid, what are you doing?" Tambry asked, Dipper didn't answer and I strand walked up to the vents and punched the cover.
"Go Dipper! Punch that metal thing!" Mabel cheered and Dipper punched the cover off the vent before crawling inside.
"Hey Dipper, take it easy!" Wendy called up.
"Who wants to bet he doesn't make it?" Robbie asked smugly.
"Ten bucks says he does." I betted and before Robbie could answer Dipper appeared at the door and gestured for us to come inside. I smirked and held out my hand. Robbie huffed before handing me a crumpled ten dollar bill.
"Good call inviting this little maniac!" Lee said as he walked in.
"Your new name is Dr. Funtimes!" Lee said as he entered and Mabel walked in giving Dipper a high-five.
"Nice work!" Wendy complimented as she punched Dipper playfully.
"Thanks for getting me ten dollars!" I joked and patted bu head and we walked in.
"Do you guys really think it's haunted?" Thompson asked.
"Na! Thompson are you kidding me?" Nate laughed, but no one but me noticed the sign turn around. I shivered but brushed it aside. Everything turns out fine...yeah...
Everyone looked around the store in awe and we all split up into groups to look around. I found my self with Lee and Nate for some reason.
"Whoa man, it's even creepier than I imagined!" Wendy said from the other side. Mabel then was licking dust, but I couldn't hear what she said and looked around with Lee and Nate.
"Hey dude, where do you think they keep the dead bodies?" Lee asked. Nate just laughed and shoved him.
"Shut up, man!" Nate said and I laughed.
"Yeah, the bodies were probably taken out years ago. No one in their right mind would leave a body in a store." I said.
"Boom, logic." Nate said making an explosion sound.
"Guys, check it out! You think these still work?" Wendy asked and flicked on the light switches. Soon everything in the store seemed to come to life. Haha, I did not mean to make that pun!
"Jackpot!" Mabel cried happily.
"So, what are we going to do now?" Dipper asked.
"Anything we want." Wendy said simply.
"Well in that case." I said and got out a bag of chips and casually tossed them in Robbie's hair. "FOOD FIGHT!" I exclaimed and everyone but Robbie cheered.
"Oh relax Robbie, it'll come out see?" Wendy said and ruffled his hair to get the chips out.
Soon the food fight began and we tossed it over the isles and I had an old energy bar hit me in the face. I don't know who won, but I don't really care! Next we got the bright idea to put mints in a bottle of Pit Cola and it exploded like a fountain. We cheered and opened our mouthes to catch some in our mouth. Later Mabel turned a corner and spotted on of the most infamous candy ever.
"Oh my gosh, Smile Dip! I thought this stuff was banned in America!" Mabel said excitedly and took a pack.
"Maybe they had a good reason." Dipper said and then got big by a ballon full of food, or something I don't know..., and rushed off.
"Mabel...maybe you should leave it. That stuffs probably super expired and...you're already eating it..." I sighed seeing Mabel dump the candy in her mouth. I sighed and walked off, mentally noting to check on her later.
Later Nate and Robbie got a bag full of ice and I had to help them drag it over to the isles.
"Hey come here we got it ready!" Nate called and Thompson ran over.
"Whatever it is I'll do it!" Thompson said eagerly.
"Okay, you three have fun." I said and walked over to Dipper and Wendy.
"Thompson! Dipper, this night is like, legendary." Wendy said. as I walked over and leaned against the shelf.
"Really?" Dipper asked.
"Just look around. The guys are bonding." Wendy said and gestured to Robbie and Nate, who were pouring ice into Thompson's pants.
"I've never even seen Tambry look up from her phone this long." Wendy added and we looked over to Tambry who looked up from her phone for a split second before looking back down at it.
"And your sister seems to be going nuts with that Smile Dip." Wendy said and I looked at Mabel, who seemed like she was ready to hurl.
"Ugh, maybe I've had too much. What do you think?" Mabel asked the imaginary puppy she believed to be next to her.
"Of course you beautiful angel!" Mabel then said before chewing on air.
"Okay, I'm gonna make sure she is actually sane." I said and walked over to her and picked her up.
"Okay Mabel, you are going to lay down for bit." I said and carried her to a corner of the store and laid her down on a few newspapers.
"Wait...I gotta finish the candy paw..." Mabel said and slowly drifted off.
"No more 'candy paws' for you." I huffed and heard a familiar scream. I quickly ran I over to the freezer and saw the gang there Dipper.
"What was that? I thought I heard some lady screaming back here." Lee said.
"You freakin' out, kid?" Nate asked.
"Uh, no. I'm cool. Everything's cool." Dipper assured us nervously.
"Then what's all this about?" Robbie asked pointing to the spilled ice.
"Duh, ice is slippery?" I said.
"That's uh, um uh...hey look! Dancy Pants Revolution, the game that tricks people into exercising!" Dipper exclaimed to distract us. Everyone bought it ran over to the ga,e that was somehow still working. I didn't hear Dipper mutter nervously to himself as Thompson called dips on okaying it first.
"Dance, hurry up!" The game said.
"Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!" Lee and Nate cheered.
"Yeah you got this Thompson!" I cheered as he tried to keep up with the game.
"Wow. He's really terrible at this." Wendy laughed.
"Heh heh, yeah. That's, that's great." Dipper said, half-heartedly. He tried to the glass door and gasped, no doubt seeing the skeletal reflections. He gasped verified rubbing his eyes to see everything was normal.
"I'll be right back." Dipper said and ran to the telephone. I followed him and he dialed Stan's number.
"Come on, Grunkle Stan, pick up! Ugh, what is he doing!?" He asked himself.
"Being glued by the t.v." I suggested and Dipper gasped.
"Oh, hey Emily..." He breathed.
"You okay? You've been acting strange since the freezer, and coming from a person whose seen crazy stuff in Gravity Falls, that's saying something." I said.
"Well, it's kinda crazy...wait, where's Mabel?" Dipper asked.
"Over in the corner lying on the..." I the realized Dipper had run off, leaving the phone dangling. I sighed and walked over to him.
"Mabel, I need your advice. We're hanging out in a haunted convenience store, I can't get a hold of Grunkle Stan, and if I say anything about it to any of these guys they'll just think I'm a scared little kid or something!" Dipper ranted.
"Dipper, she went crazy over the Smile Dip, I don't think she can...wait how'd she get more?" I asked when I saw they'd were several open packets by her.
"Uh, Emily...is this a good time to panic?" Dipper asked pointing to Mabel who was make g gurgling sounds with Smile Dip all over her face.
"It's never a good time to panic..." I said as we stared at Mabel who was probably riding Aoshima by now.
"Mabel! How many of these did you eat!?" Dipper asked shaking his twin.
"Beleven...teen..." Mabel sputtered out.
"And that's not a real number." I said.
"Oh man..." Dipper said and dropped Mabel. "Oh man, oh man, oh man." He muttered nervously.
"Okay Dipper, don't drop a sick person on the floor." I said and picked Mabel back and rested her head on my shoulder.
"I have a plan." I smirked.
"Whoa guys, you might wanna see this." Robbie said and we walked behind the counter to see the outlines of Ma and Pa's bodies.
"Whoa. Then the rumors are true!" Lee said in shock and Dipper gulped.
"Dude, dare you to lie down in it." Robbie said.
"Good idea!" Lee said and gave Nate a nudge. "Go lie down in it!" He dared and a wet laughed.
"I'm a dead body, look!" Nate said and walked over to the out lines.
"Wait! Maybe let's not do that." Dipper said causing everyone to freeze.
"This guy's scared!" Lee laughed.
"All I'm saying is, why tempt the fates? I mean.. What if this place really is... haunted?" Dipper said nervously.
"Boo! Ah c'mon!" Several of my friends moaned.
"Yeah, take it down a notch, Captain Buzzkill!" Robbie said.
"I thought I was Dr. Funtimes." Dipper said.
"Well, you're acting like Captain Buzzkill! Right?" Robbie asked and Lee, Nate and Tambry each nodded.
"Yeah, little bit." Wendy muttered and I sighed.
"Come on guys, we've had a fun night, but look at Mabel! She had one too many Smile Dip and she isn't well! We should get her some help." I explained and showed them Mabel.
"Whoa...that's not normal..." Nate said.
"Status update: Trapped in a store with insane and sick 9-year olds." Tambry said as she typed on her phone.
"I'm not a 9-year-old!" Dipper exclaimed and laid down in on of the outlines. "I'm 13! Technically a teen." Dipper declared and the outlines around him glowed an eerie green. The lights then went out and Tambry dissolved into thin air. Dipper then ran over and picked up her phone and read from in.
"Status update: AAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!" Dipper read and we looked up to the security camera screen to see Tambry knocking on it from the inside.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" She cried out.
"AAAAUUGGH!" We screamed back.
"Ahhhh!" Tambry cried again, knocking on the glass once more.
"Tambry! Tambry!" Wendy called.
"Can you hear us!?" Dipper asked. Tambry just looked around in confusion.
"She probably can't. Though I can't really say, since no one had ever been trapped in a screen." I huffed in frustration.
"What are we supposed to do!?" Nate asked he then gripped my left arm. That was new...
"I don't know man! I don't know!" Lee cried in fear.
"Let's just go already!" Robbie exclaimed.
"Thompson!" Wendy called over to Thompson who was still playing that video game.
"Wait, I've almost got the high score!" He cried and dissolved into light and reappeared into the video game. "Uh what?" He asked in confusion.
"It's time to shake what your mama gave you!" The game cried and arrows plummeted down and kept hitting him.
"No! So many arrows!" Thompson cried, failing at dodging them.
"You're a dance machine!" The game spoke again.
"No, you're a dance machine!" Thompson said before crying.
"Thompson!" Wendy and I cried out.
"Forget them! Let's go!" Robbie cried and the store doors slammed shut.
"What the...?" Wendy the tried to pry them open. "Guys, it's locked!" She said.
"OUTTA MY WAY!" Robbie cried and threw a cash register at the door but it immediately backfired and dissolved and the green light flew at Robbie.
"You couldn't get the doors open then, and you can't get it open now!" I yelled.
"Everybody, wait! Whatever's doing this has to have some kind of reason!" Dipper said taking out Journal 3. "Maybe if we can figure out what it is, they'll let us out of here!" Dipper explained.
"Uh-uh they'll let us out of here! Yeah, that makes sense!" Robbie said sarcastically.
"I don't know guys, maybe he's got a point!" Wendy said.
"Yeah, you got a better idea!?" I asked.
"Yeah right, I'm sure the ghost just wants to talk about his feelings!" Lee said sarcastically and was lifted up before dissolving and reappearing on a cereal box. "W-what?" He sputtered out.
"I'm bonkers for eating you alive!" The toucan said and raised up his spoon.
"No!" Lee exclaimed and we all averted our eyes from whatever that was.
"Lee! Okay, okay.. I'm with you kid! 100%, man!" Nate said and Mabel suddenly floated from my arms and her eyes glowed an eerie green.
"Welcome." Mabel said in a deep menacing voice.
"They got Mabel!" Dipper cried.
"Welcome to your graves, young trespassers." Pa soda through Mabel and made her laugh and kicked her legs.
"We're super sorry for hanging out in your store!" Wendy apologized.
"Yeah! Can we just go now and leave forever?" Dipper pleaded.
"Well... okay. You're free to go." Pa said and the doors opened. Mabel the floated over to the hot dog spinner. "But before you leave, hit dogs are now half off. I know it might be crazy, but you gotta try these dogs!" Pa said.
Nate and Robbie merely screamed and ran for the door, but they slammed shut before they could get out.
"Just kidding about the hot dog sale!" Pa spat.
"Just let us out of here already!" Nate yelled.
"I don't like your tone!" Pa said angrily and dissolved Nate and he reappeared inside the hot dog roller.
"No, I'm a hot dog!" Nate cried as he spun around.
"Okay, that's IT!" I cried and stormed up to the floating Mabel. "WE TRIED TO APOLOGIZE, BUT YOU KEEP TRAPPING US! AND GIVE US BACK MABEL!" I yelled, man that felt good.
"Don't raise your voice young lady!" Pa cried, and now it felt less great...I floated up and got dissolved into the freezer.
"Hey, let me out!" I cried and pounded on the glass, but the door was shut tight. Now I know how the shapeshifter felt.
"It begins..." Pa said and the store git turned upside down. I was flipped over and ice bags fell on top of me.
"Ow, great...just had to open my big fat mouth." I muttered and saw that Dipper and We day were probably now hiding in the ice machine.
"Well at least their okay..." I shivered, maybe it's better then the hot dog stove. I the saw Dipper crawl out of the ice machine and walk over to the posted Mabel.
"Hey ghost!" Dipper cried and Mabel's head twisted around before the rest of her body turned towards him. "I've got something to tell you! I'm not a teenager!" Dipper cried and everything) g that was floating was dropped and Pa appeared, holding Mabel by her hair, along with Ma.
"Hohoho, well why didn't you say so?" He asked and dropped Mabel into pile of candy and I flinched.
"She's gonna feel that in the morning." I said.
"How old did you say you were?" Pa asked friendly.
"I'm...I'm twelve, technically not a teen." Dipper admitted reluctantly.
"When we were alive, teenagers were a scourge on our store!" Ma said disgustedly.
"Always sassafrassin' costumers with their boomy boxes and disrespectful short pants! So we decided to up and ban them! But they retaliated with this new fangled rap music." Pa explained.
"The lyrics, they were so hateful!" Ma continued. "It was so shocking, we were stricken down with double heart attacks!" Ma said and I sighed.
"You were teenagers once..." I muttered though I doubt anyone heard me.
"That's why we hate teenage so much. Don't we honey?" Ma and Pa the started to nuzzle each other which was probably the nicest thing they did in this episode.
"But they're my friends, isn't there anything I can do to, help them?" Dipper asked hopefully.
"There is one thing. Do you know any funny little dances?" Pa asked.
"Uh is there anything else I can do?" Dipper asked hopefully and Pa was then enacted in red fire.
"Noooo!" He yelled angrily.
"Okay, okay, okay! Well, I do know The Lamby Lamby Dance. Bu-but I can't really do it without a lamb costume!" Dipper said, folding is arms smugly. Pa then snapped his fingers and Dipper was now in a lamb costume. I tried hard not to laugh.
"Oh, well...there it is..." Dipper said and took a breath before singing ams dancing.
"Wellll, who wants a Lamby, Lamby, Lamby? I do! I do! So go up and greet your mammy, mammy, mammy! Hi there! Hi there! So march, march, march around the daises..." Dipper sang.
"Yes, Yes! More! MORE!" Pa said eagerly.
"Don't, don't, don't you forget about the babies!" Dipper finished and gave a cute wink to finish it off.
"That was so fine, girly dancin' boy! Your friends are free." Pa said and Dipper was now in his normal clothes.
"Well I don't think you have to worry about us coming back so..." Dipper then saw that Ma and Pa had both disappeared and everything fell back to the floor and I was now out of the freezer.
"Ugghh... I'm never gonna eat or do anything ever again." Mabel moaned. Dipper then picked up a package of Smile Dip.
"Hey, there's still some left." He said and Mabel didn't hesitate to smack it out of his hands.
"EVIL!" She cried.
"What-what happened after everything went crazy?" Lee asked.
"The whole thing was crazy." I said still shivering.
"You are not going to believe it! The ghosts appeared, and Dipper had to..." Wendy trailed off when she saw Dipper looking at her. "Uh, and uh, Dipper just grabbed a bat and just started beating the ghosts down, left and right, and the ghosts got all scared, and ran away like a couple of little little girls, it was insane!" Wendy lied.
"Alright Dr. Funtimes!" Nate cheered. Wendy then turned to Dipper and zipped her lips and he returned the gesture.
Later everyone got tiredly in the van and was practically half asleep. I was too...that was energy sucking.
"Well, I'm probably scarred for life." Wendy said from outside the van.
"Yeah, that was pretty crazy." Dipper agreed.
"I think I'll go stare at a wall for a while and RETHINK EVERYTHING. Hey, next time we hang out, let's stay at the Mystery Shack. Okay?" Wendy said.
"Next time? Yah! Let's, let's hang out at the Shack! Yeah..." Dipper said and git in the van and sat between Mabel and I. "Next time..." He whispered to himself.
"That went well." I said and Dipper flinched slightly but a smirked. "Don't worry my lips are sealed." I said tiredly.
"Ohhhhh..." Mabel moaned and looked at what she wrote earlier. "What kind of sick joke is this?" Mabel asked and I sighed.
"Just rest Mabel...just rest." I said simply and we drove off.
Later, we were dropped off and walked to the Shack and the television flew out the window, nearly hitting us.
"What in the world!?" I gasped and Stan poked his head out the broken window.
"Uh, I couldn't find the remote." Stan explained.
"That's no excuse...you know what never mind..." I said and walked in the door.
"Glaring daggers! I just got that!" Dipper exclaimed from outside and a smirked.
Another episode checked off!
Author's Note:
Yay! I finished it, just in time too. I'll be going away in a few days and won't be able to do much writing for a while. But not for too long, so be patient and the next chapter will come later this month. Like the graphic novel!
Hourglass Cipher: I'm glad the name of the chapter made you laugh! And I'm sorry for driving you insane, but hey, what's the fun in giving away the ending?
