Chapter 20
Tyrone, Matt and Destiny were ready for their adventure. They had everything packed in their backpacks and Huck was not ready to let them go just yet. True to the Mothman's word, Dipper was indeed healed and so was his girlfriend Pacifica. They too were not keen on letting the three of them leave Gravity Falls.
"Are you sure this is wise? That you guys leave like this?" asked Dipper.
"We'll be fine. We will find these creatures and hopefully save Linda." Said Destiny.
"What news of the Viscount?" asked Tyrone out of the blue. Dipper nodded and spoke.
"He's gone. No one knows where he is." Said Dipper.
"This is stupid! You should stay home and rest guys! You can't do this alone." Said Mabel.
"We'll be fine. We're together in this. And the Mothman made it clear that we will be safe as long as we use the main road." Said Destiny.
"Who's driving on this field trip of yours?" asked Mabel.
"I will take them." Said a voice from behind them. Everyone turned and they were surprised to see Soos coming up towards them wearing his Mr. Mystery Suit.
"Uncle Soos! Where did you come from?" asked Dipper.
Melody, Soos's wife stepped out as well. "We heard about what happened. The Mothman spoke to us." Said Melody.
"Then I imagine you two are up to speed with what's going on here at home." Said Dipper.
"We know everything. That's why we are taking a long break from our business trip and we are going to help in any way we can." Said Melody.
"I'll take you guys off. We won't leave you." Said Soos seriously.
"That is kind of you sir, but I think I can take it from here." Said Destiny.
"You? But your just a girl." Said Soos in surprise.
"Not just a girl. I'm a friend who also wants to help." Said Destiny with determination.
Tyrone blushed and Matt shrugged his shoulder teasingly. "Growl." Whispered Matt.
Tyrone slapped him softly on the shoulder. "Whipper Snapper." He whispered.
Wendy arrived and handed the keys to Destiny. "Well here you go Destiny. Tank is full so you guys won't have trouble heading towards Tillamook." Said Wendy.
"Thank you." Said Destiny with a warm smile. She turned to see all her friends with a determined look and then she continued. "I will deliver the creatures with Tyrone and Matt beside us." Said Destiny.
"Don't you mean the three of us?" asked Tyrone.
"That's what I just said. The three of us." Said Destiny.
"You aren't the main character of this story you know." Said Tyrone with a tease.
"This book is titled "Tyrone" after all." Said Matt.
"Exnay on the Fourth Wall jokes guys. Reader, ignore this." Said Mabel, looking straight at you right now. If she could that is.
"We'll be back, I promise." Said Tyrone. He and Matt quickly hugged everyone tightly. "We'll be back before you guys know it." Said Tyrone.
"I hope so. We will save Gravity Falls again. You guys just wait." Said Dipper.
And so, Tyrone, Destiny and Matt waved goodbye to their friends and family, and got on the used van towards their mission.
The Mothman watched them from afar and he sat down eating a berry. "This madness will cease. I know it." Said the Mothman.
"I wouldn't count on that." Said a voice full of malice.
"Violet. You dare intrude while I'm having a break. And you have no voice here! Not while you have children in your custody." Said the Mothman.
"Life, Death, Birth, Sanity…. All will come true." Said Violet.
"What do you mean?" asked the Mothman.
"My wish is to bring an end to life itself. No more will the Earth suffer. I will eliminate all life on Earth and bring nothing but Death. Only Death is the way out of pure sorrow." Said Violet.
"You speak nonsense. Death is not a way out. It is a plague to mankind. The Creator brought life to Earth for everyone to enjoy. But it was all taken away by the rebellion in the Garden of Eden. And then Cain slaughtered his brother Abel in cold blood. The first murder in recorded history. You are doing the same. You are going to slaughter children!" cried the Mothman.
Violet spoke no words. The mere mention of the Creator stopped her feet cold. The most powerful being in the universe that could send only one angel to kill thousands of men in an army. This power made Violet shiver with fear all over her naked body.
"You are shivering Violet. You are cold because you are wearing nothing. You are standing there naked like Eve." Said the Mothman.
"You are an abomination! You will die like me!" she screamed.
"You are right for once Violet. But I was imagined by children and in turn, I became sentient through this cursed forest. I know my place. It is high time you learn yours woman." Said the Mothman.
Violet let out a shriek of anger and threw a fire ball at the Mothman. He dodged it and attacked Violet with his claws. She vanished into thin air and appeared again in a cloud of black smoke.
"I will bring Death to Gravity Falls! I will awaken him! I will awaken the Dark Master!" she declared. The Mothman's eyes burned bright.
"Then he too will perish along with you." Said the Mothman.
