Chapter 5: The Inconveniencing
It was just a normal day at the mystery shack, Dipper was reading the Journal.
"Hey Mabel, do you believe in ghosts?" asked Dipper.
"I thought you knew, Mom keeps finding haunted houses." Said Mabel.
"Oh right." Sighed Dipper.
"Wendy! Soos!" yelled Stan.
Soos ran into the room.
"Yes Mr. Pines?" he asked breathing heavily.
"I'm going out for a bit." Said Stan, "Are two going to clean the bathrooms?"
"Yes sir!" said Soos.
"Absolutely not!" said Wendy.
Stan laughed, "Don't' get into trouble."
Wendy went to a spot that covered.
"Hey look the a secret ladder." Said Wendy.
"Uh…" said Soos, "I don't think Mr. Pines will like that."
That was when Erza entered the shop.
"Hey mom how was House Hunting?" asked Mabel.
"Another haunted one…" sighed Erza.
She noticed the ladder.
"You might want to cover that." Said Erza.
"Stan's out of the house." Said Wendy.
Erza shrugged.
"All right then." Said Erza., "Just cover it back up before he gets back."
"Will do Mrs. P." said Wendy.
Soos stared at Erza.
"Mom can we go up there?" asked Dipper.
"Of course." Sid Erza as it wouldn't be the first time Dipper went up there, "Just make sure you don't knock down any signs…"
"Yay!" cheered Dipper and Mabel, "Roof time! Roof time!"
As they climbed it.
"I don't' know if that's a good idea…" said Soos.
"Dipper used one of my swords on that roof, he'll be fine." Said Erza.
Soos began to get nervous.
"I have to go clean the bathroom!" yelled Soos suddenly.
On the roof they found that Wendy had a whole cooler and chairs up on the roof and that she came up everyday. They decided to throw pinecones.
Dipper ended up hitting a car, which went off.
"All right five points!" said Wendy, "High five"
Dipper stared at Wendy.
"Don't' leave me hanging." Said Wendy.
He high fived her.
She noticed a car roll in.
"Hey it's my friend." Said Wendy she turned to the others "Hey you're not going to Stan are you?"
Dipper zipped his lips and she copied.
"Later dorks!" she said.
Se slid down a tree and joined her friends.
"Later Wendy!" said Dipper nervously laughing.
"Uh-oh!" said Mabel.
"What?" asked Dipper .
"You Loooove her." Said Mabel with a sneaky smile.
Dipper rolled his eyes.
"Yeah right, Wendy's just cool okay." Said Dipper, "It's not like I lay awake at night thinking about her…"
That night Dipper was laying awake.
"Uh-oh…" he said.
The next day Mabel declared "random Dance Party for No reason".
As she and Wendy danced Dipper pretended to write something.
As they were dancing. Wendy walked over.
"Hey Dipper aren't you going to join." Said Wendy.
"No thanks I don't really dance." Said Dipper.
"Yeah you do." Said Mabel, "Mom would make him dress up and do the lamby dance."
"The lamby dance was an excuse to try to get me to like costumes." Muttered Dipper.
"What?" asked Wendy.
"Mom has a costume obsession." Sighed Dipper.
"So…" said Wendy, "Were there little ears and tail?"
"Uh…" said Dipper embarrassed.
Mable showed Wendy the picture.
"He would sing a song about grazing." Laughed Mabel.
That was when Wendy's phone beeped.
"Looks like it's quitting time." Said Wendy, "The gang's waiting for me."
Before Wendy could leave.
"Wait Wendy, do you think we could hang out with your friends?" asked Dipper.
"I don't know, my friends are pretty intense." Said Wendy, "How old are you?"
"13!" said Dipper, "Technically a teen!"
"All right! I like your moxy!" said Wendy, "Let me get my stuff."
Once she as out of the room.
"Wait… since when are we thirteen?" asked Mabel, "Is it a leap year?"
"Come on Mabel, this is our chance to hang with cool kids… and Wendy." Said Dipper
"I knew it! You Loooove her." Said Mabel with a sly smirk.
"Stop that…" muttered Dipper.
Not too long later they went outside to meet with Wendy's friends.
Lee and Nate who were two skinny guys, Tambry, a girl who wouldn't look up from her phone, Thompson a fat guy who once ate a run over waffle for 50 cents.
"Don't' tell them that." Said Thompson.
And Robbie, a skinny guy with a balk sweatshirt with a stitched up heart.
"I'm the guy who spray painted the water tower." Bragged Robbie.
"You mean the big muffin?" asked Dipper.
"It's supposed to be an explosion." Said Robbie.
They all looked at the water tower.
"Hey, it does look like a muffin. "said Lee.
They all laughed, making Robbie embarrassed.
"Hey! Called out Erza.
"I forgot to tell mom." Sighed Dipper.
"It's okay. "said Wendy, "Hey Mrs. P, can they hang out with me tonight."
"I don't have a problem with it…" said Erza figuring that would be the best way to get her children to open up.
However Erza smirked, she walked over and adjusted Dipper's hat.
"You make sure nothing bad happens… okay." Said Erza.
"Yeah…" sighed Dipper.
Erza walked over to the Mystery Shack.
"You had to ask for permission." Laughed Robbie.
"I had to." said Wendy, "I'm pretty sure she could kick my dad's butt."
The guys stared at Erza as she entered the mystery shack.
"Scary." Said Thompson.
"But seriously…" said Lee, "You're mom's hot…"
Dipper sighed while Mabel laughed.
"All right now we got permission from Mrs. P out of the way, I got big plans for tonight." Said Wendy.
Dipper headed for the passenger.
"Hey kid, I got shotgun." Said Robbie.
Dipper joined Mabel in the back.
"Okay before we go my mom say we're not allow to punch the roof any more." Sighed Thompson.
They didn't listen as they all began to punch the roof chanting "Thompsons! Thompson
Mabel noticed some graffiti saying "You suck!"
She scratched it out and put down "You look nice!"
"That's going to blow someone's mind." Said Mabel.
"Mable please…" said Dipper.
"What is about your new girl…" said Mabel, however Dipper covered her mouth.
However he pulled it away.
"Ew… did you just lick my hand?" asked Dipper.
Mabel smiled.
Back at the Mystery Shack, Stan was watching TV.
It was on the black and white period piece old lady boring movie channel.
"Kids! I can't find the remote! And I don't' want to get up!" yelled Stan.
Erza entered the room.
"The kids went out with Wendy." Said Erza.
Stan shrugged, "Better than Gideon…" said Stan, "Do you know where the remote is?"
"No…" said Erza leaving the room.
"Hey get back here!" yelled Stan who still refused to get up.
As the movie started he gave a big "NOOOOOO!"
Back with the twins Wendy brought them to the place.
"There it is, the commended Dusk 2 Dawn. "said Wendy.
"Why did he shut it down?" asked Dipper, "Health code violation?"
"Try murder!" yelled Nate.
"Some people died there years ago and it's been haunted ever since." Said Lee.
Dipper paled.
"This town has such a colorful history." Said Mabel.
"Are you serious." Said Dipper.
"We're all going to die. Said Wendy sarcastically, "Chill out, it's going to be fine."
After climbing the fence (well Dipper had to be thrown over), they tried to break in.
Robbie had problems opening the door.
"Let me try." Said Dipper.
"Oh right! Because this kid is Hercules." Said Robbie.
Dipper touched the door and suddenly it opened.
"Wow! How did you do that?" asked Nate.
"He's a wizard!" yelled Mabel.
Dipper laughed nervously while Wendy nodded, knowing about the magic they had.
"What's what calling you The Wizard!" said Nate
They all went inside.
"Hey do you really think it's haunted?" asked Thompson.
"yeah right." Said Lee.
Little did they know the sign mysteriously flipped over form open to closed.
They looked around.
"Do you think this still works?" asked Wendy looking at the light switch.
She flipped it on and everything came to life.
"Jackpot!" yelled Mabel.
"What do we do now?" asked Dipper.
"Whatever we want!" said Wendy.
They began to do whatever they wanted. They did the old soda and Mentos things and of course threw food at each other.
That was when Mabel stumbled upon some old candy.
"Whoa! Smile dip, I thought it was banned in America." Said Mabel.
"Probably for a good reason." Said dipper.
However before he could stop Mabel, he got distracted by the other guys.
Mabel began to eat the Smile Dip.
Completely unaware of what was going to happen to her.
Sometime later, Wendy and Dipper were eating some popsicles on the shelves.
"this night is legendary." Said Wendy, "The guys are bonding."
They watched as the other put ice down Thompson's pants.
"And I never seen Tambry look up form her phone for so long." Said Wendy.
Tambry was looking up from her phone for a few second before going back.
"And your sister seems to going nuts for Smile Dip!" said Wendy.
Mabel was laying on the ground cover in candy.
"Mabel-y I had too much…" said Mabel.
That was when suddenly her ways went big and suddenly she found herself elsewhere.
"Where am I?" she asked.
She noticed animals running away… however they seemed to be frozen.
"Weird…" said Mabel.
She turned to see some flying bugs and that was when she noticed.
The wings were moving but very slowly.
"It's not frozen, it's just moving very fast!" said Mabel.
She began to explore.
She got to the edge and found the coast and noticed some boat in the distance.
"I think I'm an island." Said Mabel.
She turned and saw a giant tree… and on top of the tree was another island.
"Island-ception!" said Mabel.
She began to explore the strange island.
Back in the real world…
Dipper and Wendy counted to talk.
"I wasn't sure at first, but you and your crew can hang out any time." Said Wendy, "As long your mom doesn't know all the details."
"I figured." sighed Dipper.
"But you know you're surprisingly mature for your age." Said Wendy.
"Yeah…" said Dipper accidently poking himself with the Popsicle.
"Hey we're almost out of ice!" yelled Lee.
"On it!" called out Dipper.
He walked over to the freezer and saw some sort of strange brain monster inside. Of course he screamed.
He dropped the ice, he closed the door when he opened it again it was gone.
"Hey you okay? I thought I heard a lady screaming." Said Lee.
"Is everything okay?" asked Nate.
"I'm fine… totally fine." Said Dipper.
"What about that?" asked Robbie noticing the ice.
"Nothing…" said Dipper, "It's fine…"
He noticed Dancy Pants Revolution.
"Hey it's that game that ricks you into excise ring." Said Dipper.
Thompson began to play and he was really bad at it.
Dipper sighed and that was when he noticed his, Wendy, Tambry and Robbie's reflections were that as a skeletons. When he robbed his eyes he saw they were gone.
"I'll be right back!" said Dipper.
He ran outside and to the pay phone.
Meanwhile in Mabel's dream she was at a forest where there was a lot of down trees.
"Wow! What happened here? Something weird?" asked Mabel.
She shrugged and continued to explore the island.
Back with Dipper he paced back and forth in front of the hone debating whether or not to call the Mystery Shack.
On one hand it was a haunted convince store…
On the other was his mother…
"What am I going to do." Said Dipper.
Dipper decided to take a third option and talk to Mabel. He went back inside.
"Mabel I need your advice!" said Dipper, "We're in a haunted continence store, I don't think it's a good idea to contact mom and I don't want them to think I'm a scared little kid…"
Mabel was just mumbling some stuff.
"Are you okay?" asked Dipper.
Meanwhile in Mabel's derma she continued to look around the island. That was hewn she came across a clearing.
She saw multiple people standing in a circle holding hands. Most of them had bandages on, three of them weren't even people… they were cats.
That was hewn saw in the sky was a large black dragon. It seemed to be charging some kind of attack.
"Whoa! How did I miss that?" asked Mabel.
She looked are the people in a circle, that was when she noticed many of them had the same tattoo as Erza.
"They're members of Fairy Tail…" said Mabel.
Her eyes widened.
"Am I in Earthland?" she asked.
"You are." Said a voice behind her.
Back with Dipper was didn't know what to do.
"Great, I'm in a haunted convenience store." Muttered Dipper, "And Mabel's out of it."
He pushed the Smile Dip stand with his magic.
That was when he got an idea on how to get out there.
"Hey guys check this out!" called out Robbie.
They headed to what he found and behind the counter was a the outlines of the dead bodies.
That was when a nearby stool crashed into the wall.
"What just happened." Said Nate.
"I don't know…" said Dipper.
Wendy shrugged thinking Dipper was just pranking them making it seem like it was haunted.
"Hey I dare you lay in the outlines." Said Robbie.
That was when several bottles suddenly broke.
"I don't think it's a good idea." Said Dipper, "I think this place might be haunted!"
Wendy was laughing.
"I ain't a afraid of a ghost!" said Robbie.
"I think it's "I ain't afraid of no ghost"." Said Wendy.
"Whatever!" said Robbie blushing.
He decided that it was time to prove himself.
"I'm going to lay on it myself then!" said Robbie.
"I don't know if it's a good idea!" said Dipper, "This place is clearly haunted!"
Robbie didn't' listen and he laid on the one of the outside.
It began to glow.
"This doesn't look good!" yelled Dipper.
Meanwhile back in… well another universe, Mabel stared at the person. It was a girl around her age with long blonde hair.
"Hello Mabel." She said.
"Who are you and how do you know my name?" asked Mabel.
"I don't think you're mother has told you much about me so it doesn't matter." Said the girl.
"No fair." pouted Mabel.
The girl laughed.
"The combination of your magic, the smile dip and the unstable magical energy has brought you here." Said the girl, "Although in the form of an out of body experience."
"What no way!" yelled Mabel, "You're kidding!"
The girl nodded, "I've actually had to speed myself up to talk to you."
"Is it because of the smile dip?" asked Mabel.
The girl shook her head no.
The girl began to tell Mabel many things that would shock her.
Back on Earth, the lights when out and suddenly Tambry dissolved, leaving only her phone.
Dipper picked it up.
It had her status update, which was a scream.
They turned to see she was trapped in a security monitor.
"Dipper are you doing this?" asked Wendy freaking out.
"No!" said Dipper, " I don't think even mom has this kind of power!"
"We have to get out of here!" yelled Robbie.
"Thompson!" yelled Nate.
"Wait a minute guys I'm close to the high score!" yelled Thompsons how was still playing Dancy Pants Revolution.
However that was when he was sucked into the game, which began to attack him with arrows.
"Thompson!" cried Wendy.
"Leave them!" yelled Robbie.
That was when the door suddenly shut on their own.
Robbie tired to open them.
Dipper tried to use his magic but it was no use.
"What your magic isn't working?" mocked Robbie.
"Now's not the time!" said Dipper.
He took out the journal.
"Maybe if we try to talk to them maybe they're let us go." Said Dipper.
"Yeah right like that's going to work." Muttered Robbie.
"He's got a point." Said Wendy.
"I'm sure the ghosts just want to talk about their feelings." Muttered Lee.
That was when Lee also vanished.
They saw he was on a cereal box.
"I'm bonkers for eating you alive." Said the cereal toucan.
That was when they noticed Mabel floating with her eye completely white.
"Welcome!" said Mabel in a really deep voice.
Dipper paled he gritted his teeth, he wasn't sure if it was going to work but at lease he had to make a stand or his sister.
"Let Mabel go right now!" yelled Dipper.
"I would but I'm afraid she's gone!" mocked the possessed Mabel.
Dipper's eyes widened the nearby door on the freezer suddenly shattered.
"No…" he whispered.
Several shelves fell over and a few things floated into the air. It was clear that Dipper lost control of his magic.
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Calm down! She's not dead… she's having an out of body experience!" said the Possessed Mabel, "I have nothing to do with I swear! I'm sure when he her sugar levels go back to normal it will be fine."
Back in Earthland Mabel was shocked.
"If it happen it will be in the next 45 days." Said the girl.
Mabel looked at the group…
That was when she flinched.
"What's wrong?" asked the girl.
"I just got a weird pain…" said Mabel.
"Maybe something's happening to you body…" said the girl.
"I hope not…" said Mabel, "Because that would be bad!"
The girl giggled.
Back on Earth…
"Look I'm sorry for making you freak out… have a hotdog." Said the possessed Mabel.
Nate and Robbie tried to run away, Robbie managed to hide somewhere while Nate disappeared.
"I'm a hotdog!" yelled Nate.
They turned to see he had turned to a hotdog and was on the hotdog roller…
"Welcome to your home for eternity." Said the possessed Mabel.
The freeze fell over and Wendy noticed it.
"Over here!" she called out taking Dipper with her.
Dipper was calming down.
"Sorry about that earlier, that almost never happens with my magic…" said Dipper.
"It's okay." Sighed Wendy, "But what do you they want from us."
"I don't know… "said Dipper, "There has to be a pattern here, Tambry was texting, Thompson was[ laying video games, Lee was sarcastic… it doesn't make any sense…"
"It's normal teenager things." Said Wendy.
"What did you say?" asked Dipper.
"Normal teenager things?" asked Wendy.
"That's it!" said Dipper, "Please don't leave unless I tell you."
Dipper went out of the freezer.
"Hey ghosts!" yelled Dipper.
The possessed Mable turned her head at Dipper.
Then her whole body.
Dipper winced.
Back in Earthland Mabel suddenly went "OW!"
"Are you okay?" asked the girl.
"I'm fine, I'm fine… it's passed." Said Mabel.
That was when Mabel began to fade away.
"What's going on?" asked Mabel.
"You're going back to Earth." Said the girl, "Remember what I told you…"
Mabel nodded.
Hopefully she would remember… who knows though.
Dipper faced his possessed sister.
"I have something to tell you! I'm not a teen!" said Dipper.
That was when two ghosts appeared. It was an old couple with the man holding Mabel by the hair.
"Why didn't you say so?" asked the old man ghost.
Mabel was dropped into the a pile of candy as she came to her senses.
"Ow…" said Mabel.
"How old did you say you were?" asked the old man ghost.
Dipper sighed, "12, technically not a teen."
The two ghosts explained that when they were alive teens were the scourge of the store so they evidently banned them. The teens of the town, evidently they retaliated with hateful rap music. It was so shocking they had double heart attacks.
"And that's why we hate teens." Said the old woman ghost, "Don't we honey?"
The two nuzzled.
"But they're my friends, isn't there anything I can do to save them?" asked Dipper.
"There is one thing. Do you know of any funny dances?" asked the old man ghost.
"Uh… is there anything else you want me to do… like a magic off?" asked Dipper.
"NO!" yelled the old man ghost.
"Well I do know the Lamby Dance… but I need a lamb costume…" said Dipper.
The old man ghost snapped his fingers and a lamb costume appeared on Dipper.
He began to do the dance and sing… and it was embracing it was a good thing that the others were trapped or in a very good hiding spot like Robbie. Although Wendy seemed to enjoy it.
"That was some might fine girly dancing boy, your friend are free." Said the old man ghost.
"Well I don't think you have to worry about any of us coming back ever again so…" said Dipper feverously as his clothes returned too normal.
The ghost disappeared and all of their friends returned to normal.
"So much pain…" said Mabel.
Dipper waked over to Mabel.
"Are you okay?" asked Dipper, "I heard you having an out of body experience."
"Yeah it had to with unstable magic in Earthland and sugar… or something…" said Mabel.
She was about to explain but then she gagged.
"Maybe I'll tell you another time." Sighed Mabel.
"Wait did you say Earthland?" asked Dipper, "You went to Earthland."
However before Mabel could say anything else the subject shifted.
"What happened?" asked Nate.
"You're not going to believe it!" said Wendy laughing a little, then she looked at Dipper, "Dipper used his crazy magic and pulled out a giant sword and scared away the ghosts like they were a bunch of little girls! IT was insane!"
"All right Wizard!" cheered Nate.
Dipper looked at Wendy who zipped her lips and he zipped them back.
Sometime later everyone but Dipper and Wendy were sleeping in the van, they all need it. Dipper and Wendy
"Well I'm probably scarred for life." Said Wendy.
"Yeah…" sighed Dipper, "That was pretty crazy, sorry trying to scare you…"
"It's cool, I figured you were doing it from the start." Said Wendy, "SO how powerful are you?"
"Don't know… but my mom's really powerful, they called her "Titania, Queen of the Fairies" where she came form." Explained Dipper.
Wendy nodded and sighed. "I think I'm going to go stare at wall and rethink my life, Next time we hang out it will be at the shack okay."
"Next time… yeah." Said Dipper.
And so they all left the convenience store.
Back at the mystery shack, Erza was eating art of a cake while drinking some milk, occasionally laughing at Stan's reaction to the movie.
That was when she heard a crash.
She went to see what happened.
She saw Stan had thrown out the TV.
"I couldn't find the remote…" said Stan sheepishly out the window.
Erza sighed… and went to get the TV.
Maybe she should have helped him after all… but then again she honestly didn't see him tossing out the TV coming.
And so thanks to Erza's costume obsession Dipper saved the lives of a few teenagers.
However the biggest mystery was what Mabel said on Earthland… and she was in no shape to talk…
And eve she wasn't sure if what she as told would actually come true… she had to wait until the time frame was up to see if it would happen…
And to be honest she wasn't sure if she wanted it to happen or not…
Next Time: Dipper becomes ashamed that he isn't manly, when he meet the Manotaurs he will learn how to be a real man. Meanwhile Manly Dan dolls a crush on Erza... will Mabel be able to set the two up? Find out next time!
A/N: What's going on Tenrou Island? And what might happen in 45 days? I'm not going to tell so don't ask, you'll just have to wait and see... that is if I ever reveal it... MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
