CHAPTER 10:prove yourself. awaken and go beyond
dipper and robbie were free falling off the canyon while they were still holding on to each other. dipper tried to shake free but robbie didn't seem to budge
"what's you problem. let go or we will both die !" dipper shouted,robbie's face was of rage
"i won't let you go twerp,i'm taking you down even if i break a few bones" he said without any sign of hesitance on his voice. dipper stared flabbergasted
'dammit,he's too far gone to reason with,he really wants to kill me!' diper thought in a panic,he closed as his eyes as he had no other choice
"[maps and legends] free me!" dipper shouted flaring his aura,the stand materializing
'EUREKA'
it shouted throwing a punch,it caught robbie off guard causing to let go. but he was able to regain his senses and grab on to dipper's leg
"you are not getting away this easy"he shouted,gripping tightly. [maps and legends] pulled it's leg back to try and kick robbie off
'if i can kick him off,i can maybe use my stand to grab some tree' dipper thought,mentally ordering the stand to attack. robbie saw the kick coming and gritted his teeth
"stop it [darkness in edge town]" he ordered as a black aura covered his body,then two thin mettalic hands with fingerless gloves grabbed [maps and legends] leg stopping it. dipper widened his eyes
'robbie has a stand?! so he was the one we saw that day with the arcade! if that's the case than i can't afford to hold back' dipper thought
"[maps and legends] punch him away"dipper said out loud.
'kakakakakakakakakakakaka. EUREKA'
[maps and legends] attacked robbie with a barrage of punches and since his stand was holding his leg he couldn't block
"aaarg" robbie grunted letting go of dipper's leg as he was thrown away but the attacks
"dammit,i gotta soften the landing somehow!" both robbie and dipper said out loud
robbie put his hand into his pocket searching for something
"c'mon c'mon. found it,do it edge town!" he raised a polaroid picture as he shouted
the picture became pitch black and dissolved into shadows,covering robbie's entire body and reforming into [deadwood] that met dipper anc candy earlier that summer. he turned around so his belly was facing down and pulled out his sawed katanas
"time to stick the landing" he said jamming his sword into a tree halting his momentum and slide down the tree to reach the ground safely
dipper on the other hand was about to hit the trees before he thought of something
"if i hold on to a branch the momentum will rip my arm off,so i gotta soften the landing. [maps and legends] break the branches!" he commanded
'kakakakakakakakakakakakaka'
the stand wrecked any branch going down, causing various leaves and branches to fall on the ground below,creating a soft enough pile of debree to hold dipper as he fell on the ground
"ahrg,it could have been better... at least i'm in one piece" he groaned feeling his whole body ache
"not for long you're not"he heard as he saw robbie falling towards him with his sword,dipper rolled out of the way as the sword jammed itself where his chest was. he stood up in a hurry
"you messed my night for the last time chump!" robbie said putting his katanas in a X position
dipper felt a drop of sweat go though his face,summoning his own stand which was with his hands raised ready to fight.
SCENECUT
"watchout!" mabel warned jumping out of the way as a giant golden foot stomped on the ground where they once stood
"pacifica was bad,but i didn't expect the manifestation of her soul to be this bad!" candy said shooting explosive jawbreakers at the golden farmer,but the golden construct swatted them away with it's golden hand causing them to hit some trees and explode on them.
the gold farmer swung his pitchfork in a arc to hit the girls. summoning [KGB] mabel quickly created a wall from the ground,while it didn't stop the pitchfork it drastically lowered it's momentum allowing the colorful stand to punch the large weapon and stop it in place by wrapping her arms around it
[glitter and gold] was visibly angry,she turned to the giant construct in front of her
"come on you stupid construct,they are only two girls. DO SOMETHING YOU IDIOT" the golden woman shouted angrily,the giant farmer grabbed the pitchfork with both hands to pull it out from [KGB's] grasp
"now candy!"mabel shouted visibly struggling to hold the large weapon down
candy smiled pushing her glasses up her face,then pointing at the golden farmer with one arm while putting the other arm behind her head as [sugartime] appared behind her pointing it's gatling gun hand
'jaw bombers'
[sugartime] shot a barrage of purple jawbreakers at tne golden farmer,who didn't his arm to protect it's face as it pulled the weapon from mabel,once they hit his head and exploded. the construct stumbled back letting go of the pitchfork completely. taking this opportunity mabel mentaly ordered [KGB] to lift the pitchfork
'AAAAAAAADOOOOOOO'
with a mighty scream the colorful stand threw the pitchfork directly at the golde farmer's chest,impaling it throught the stomach,the farmer fell backwards being suspended by the pitchfork. the girls cheered "take that you glorified statue,we beat you once and did it again" mabel said
[glitter and gold] looked with anger before showing a bit of a smile and laughed "hehehehe,gold may not be very durable,but solid gold is one of the most malibale substances on earth! meaning no matter how much damage you cause i can simply reshape it and ignore the damage" she said,the girls wearily looking as the golden farmer started to move again
once the smoke from the explosion dissipated the girls could see the statue's face was disfigured and contorted,before becoming semi liquified and reformed back. the gold construct grabbed the end of the pitchfork and started to pull itself off the large tool,after he was free the farmer's torso liquified and reformed,after recovering the farmer turned around and grabbed his weapon off the ground then turning to the two girl who had a concerned look in their eyes.
SCENECUT
"STOP MOVING TWERP" robbie shouted swinging his sword as dipper ducked under the attack,causing some trees behind him to be sliced instead.
"if you put away the swords then maybe i would stop dodging" dipper said as he ducked,summoning [maps and legends] the stand sweeped robbie's legs making him fall to the ground with a hard 'thump'
"arg,you bastard. stop with the cheap shots and fight me like a man"he says standing up and running at the brunette
"easy for you to say when you're the one with swords!" dipper says,his stand going foward,robbie brought his sword horizontally attemtping to slice the stand in half
'you act too brashly robbie' thought dipper. just like on the first fight against the wearable stand[maps and legends] became a map but keeping his momentum easily going through robbie's attacks and returning to it's humanoid form behind the emo teen
'eureka'
the slim stand turned around kicking robbie right in the face with full force,blood spurting out of his nose and breaking his mask making him stumble back and hit a tree gasping for air
"now,kick his ass [maps and legends]" dipper pointed
'kakakakakakaka'
the stand delivered a flurry of kicks directly at robbie's face,blood spurting in various direction. [maps and legends] spins his body and kicks robiie's neck sending him spiraling through some trees causing them to fall down. robbie groaned as he tried to stand up,pain coursing through his entire body with every move, his [edgewood] armor cracking and falling off his torso and his left arm
"huh? dammit,don't dare fail me now [darkness in edge town] !" he says angry at himself essentially, reaching in his pocket and grabbing a empty picture frame. he grunted when he saw it was damaged,parts of it burned away reflecting the damage caused to the armor
"son of a-. i need a change of plans" he said to himself. the armor became shadows and travelled from his body to the picture frame forming [deadwood] in the picture,a black aura surging around the emo
"what's wrong robbie,got ya too hard there?" dipper said walking closer,stand at the ready
"talk so big,yet i'm just starting. if i can't cut your head i just have to improvise. guess you'll see my stand after all. come out and kick his ass [darkness in edge town]" robbie said with great confidence in his voice,as camera film came out of his body. dipper could see slittle skulls on the film strip
the film swerved and raveled together forming a physical form,completing the from dipper saw as they were falling.
robbie's stand was as tall as he was and had a robottic appearance,with it's body being basically a metal skeleton. it had thin limbs giving it a very skinny appearance. it's head was squared with the right eye being a camera lense and the left eye the camera flash,it was wearing nothing except for black gloves on it's hands and spiked boots,on the middle of it's chest a little screen.
[darkness in edge town]rushed foward pulling his arm back to attack dipper as the camer closes in his face
SCENECUT
"stop hiding,and come out!" [glitter and gold] screamed,now on the giant farmer's shoulder. after realizing their attacks wouldn't do much,mabel and candy ran into the forest near the shack hiding deep in it knowing the size of the construct would hinder itself. and they were right,as much as the golden stand hated to admit it was a good strategy,it had already took a good amount of energy to form the farmer and heal it of it's wounds as well as keeping it active constantly drained energy.
now the girl hiding into the forest meant the farmer would have to cut it's way to find the girls
'jaw scorchers'
from a random direction,red jawbreakers flew into the giant farmer's midsection,bursting into flames shortly after melting the statue's body forcing it to kneel down to keep stability. [glitter and gold] also had to hold on to not fall from the farmer's shoulder,letting her guard down
"now [KGB]" from the middle of some trees,rocks tied to strings came flying and tied around the golden stand,restraining her.
"you may be autonomous and separate from pacifica,but that's also your weakness" mabel said as her stand pulled the strings wrapped around her fist
"NO! I WON'T FALL FOR YOUR PETTY TRICKS AGAIN" [glitter and gold] screamed her face cracking even more as she turned the string into gold,forcing [KGB] to let go of them,the golden woman then slammed her hands on the statue,it's whole body rippled as the hole reformed and it raised the giant pitchfork
"i had enough of your games" the pitchfork started spinning like a giant drill
'midas devastation'
the golden farmer took a heavy step foward pulling the large weaping back before thrusting it foward . the spinning tip of the weapon shot off heading towards mabel
"woah,[KGB] pull me away" she screamed jumping away,her stand used more strings to tie around a tree and pull it's user out of harms way. mabel's face paled when she saw the path of destruction and devastation left where she's stood. [glitter and gold smirked as she saw the fear in mabel's eyes and the pitchfork reformed.
"you see the difference betqeen us. i like my mistress will always be better than simpletons like your kind. and-AHHHHH" her superiority speech was interrupted when a powerful eletric shock surged through the giant farmer. the construct also spasming because of the pain
"i don't know what you're doing here golden lady,but leave my friends alone" said soos seriously,with [RAM] floating beside him with the symbol of a lightning bolt on his roulette and multiple tesla coils coming out of the stand's hat.
"so..." [glitter and gold] says,the farmer turning towards soos
"the fat handyman,came to the girl's aid. noble" she said as the farmer pulled the pitchfork and walked towards the handyman
"spin" the roulette in [RAM]s stopped at the symbol of a banana. the stand opened it's mouth and threw up mulitple banana peels. the giant farmer stepped on the mass of banana peels and slipped missing his attack and fell to the ground, but [glitter and gold] entered inside the farmer to protect herself. soos smiled upon seeing the fallen farmer before him
"let's go play some a tossing game" he said,his stand flexing it's large arms.
the handyman walked up to the foot of the giant farmer and ordered [RAM] to grab it's legs. after a initial struggle [ram] pulled the giant farmer off the ground and started to spin around soos while holding the giant construct
"And off you go! RELEASE" soos shouted throwing the giant farmer with great force through many trees,skiddling through the ground sinking more and more
"wow,thanks for the help soos" candy said coming out of her hiding spot and running ot the older man
"what even are you doing here at this time?" asked mabel
"well,as i was stocking the shop i accidentally picked a false wallet and phone,don't know how i didn't notice earlier but i decided to come and grab it. then a giant pitchfork almost hit my car and i saw you guys fighting whatever that thing is" he said casually
"we don't really know to be honest. that is pacifica's stand,but to why it's attacking us it's anyone's guess" said mabel
"well,in any case we can't let another pyronica accident happen again. so let's fight her off" soos said summoning his stand
"right,you and candy hold [glitter and gold] i'll be back" mabel says running to the shack
soos and candy just shrug as heavy steps echo in the forest,the golden farmer already up and coming towards the duo
"get ready dude" he said about to use his ability when candy tugged his shirt
"soos,take this. its a special jawbreaker, i can only make on my birthday or christmas,you'll need it" she says giving a larger golden jawbreaker with a sparkling 7 on it
"thanks dude" soos said eating it.
As soon as he ate it,soos felt a surge of energy going through his most surprising was how his stand was affected,golden beams shot out from it's eyes and mouth as it was enveloped into golden light which cracked like a coccoon with a bright flash. when the light toned down soos' stand was different.
It still looked the same physically but now it had a pure solid gold color with silver highlights. The roulette on his chest had three golden 7s decorating it
"wow dude,i feel amazing! what did that jawbreaker do?" he asked admiring his new stand
"it increases luck" candy said simply,soos gave a wide grin
"is that so, spin" he ordered,except nothing happened. soos looked confused and [glitter and gold] laughed from inside the farmer lifting it's pitchfork
"what good is a luck if you lose the ability" she said thrusting her pitchfork at the due
"shield" soos screamed standing in front of candy as the large weapon came closer
'clang'
soos and candy opened their eyes,they were encased in a colorful bubble which stopped the pitchfork in it's tracks
"was that you?" candy asked
"no dude,i didn't spin. i just thought shield and it happened" he said,then looking at the giant statue.
"repel" he said,suddenly his stand opened it's mouth and released a powerful 'BURP' that sent the giant farmer skidding back
"i don't have to spin, oh yeah dude!" soos said pointing to the sky
"laser beams" [RAM]s eyes glowed red and a large red beam shot from them just melting through the farmer's legs as it took a step and fell to the ground
"this day keeps getting better" says candy putting her hands like a gun while[sugartime] aimed where she was pointing
SCENECUT
'KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKA-'
'LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRR-'
[Maps and Legends] and [Darkness In Edge Town] screamed as they went at it,relentlessly throwing punch after punch in quick succession.
despite both dipper and robbie having been going for a while,only the older emo teen looked worse for wear as he had learned,begrudginly,his stand natural form was actual weaker and more fragile than dipper's stand. which enfuriated him,but due to the situation he was in he couldn't risk telling his stand to stop or call him back as that would make him easy pickings.
'gad dammit,how can this dipshit have a stronger stand. i feel like my hands are on fire' robbie cursed inwards
"don't stop [Darkness In Edge town] he will wear out eventually" he said outloud,he couldn't afford to let the pipsqueak know he was losing
"keep at it [Maps and Legends]" dipper followed suit
'i can't keep going for much longer,there must be something i can do. come on dipper think' he thought
'-KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKA'
'-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRR'
the stand rush stand-off continued for a few seconds with both sides racking their brains for a plan
"now" [maps and legends] grabbed robbie's stand's fist when they clashed
"what" the emo said confused
After grabbing the stand's hands,[maps and legends] pulled [darkness in edge town] closer and kneed him square in the stomach,robbie bend down and spat some blood.
'EUREKA'
[maps and legends] released the thinner stand and punched it directly on it's face cracking the camera lense
"uahhhh" robbie screamed spitting blood as he felt the impact on his face and stumbling back
"this ain't over dammit,you got lucky. now is time i get truly serious." robbie said as the screen on his stand's chest lit up,showing a picture of [RAM]
"i've seen what the fat plumber can do,how about i borrow it!" he says as his stand presses a button on it's camera-like head. it became pitch black and started to change form. the top half becoming larger and wider while the lower half got thinner and retracted into the torso
"Check this out [Edgy Access Memory]" Robbie says
the stand was like soos but it had red and black as it's color scheme,it's face looked like a semi-demonic nutcracker with spikes trimming his hat and a eternal expression of anger. the stand had spiked bracelets on it's arms and knuckledusters on it's fists,the roulette on it's chest looked like a mouth on it's body and was cracked. [EAM] went foward and threw a punch at [maps and legends],who tried to defend it
"ahhhhh" dipper groaned loudly as he felt his arms being broken by the power of the punch. pieces of bones sticking put as blood gushed out,his legs were also damaged due to him trying to withstand such atack
"not so tough now,huh loser. i'll crack your head!"
"spin" robbie said, the cracked roulette lit up as very simbols passed by in quick succession,stopping skull shaped flame. [EAM] opened it's mouth and breathed a giant fireball forming a skull shape travelled towards dipper. he tried to move but his legs felt like they were going to rapture at any moment,he couldn't move! he had no choice
"[maps and legends] protect me!" he shouted ,his stand turned into paper and wrapped itself over it's owner as the fireball struck
"AHHHHHH" dipper screamedas he felt his skin being burned off,trying his best to stay awake,as he saw parts of his stand burning away
"ENOUGH" then a wave of cold washed over dipper,followed by brief relief
"what?" robbie said confused,partly encased in ice,looking to his side he paled when he saw wendy stadning before him,a bright light blue aura surrounding her body
"you have gone too far robbie,trying to KILL someone. you changed for worse" she said with tears on her eyes having to see the path her childhood friend spiraled to. behind wendy was a floating valkyrie with 6 wings made of ice.
"And i'm gonna stop you" she says, ice forming around her
SCENECUT
"Giant punch" [RAM] opened it's chest and a giant boxing glove came out,hitting the giant farmer on the chest,caving it in and making a hole.
"house of mirrors" soos body vibrated before 5 other soos appeared surrounding the giant golden farmer as it looked confused
"freeze" all 6 [RAM]s eyes glowed green shhoting beams that turned the statue to stone
"now dude" soos said as the copies dissapeared
"gotcha [sugartime]
'jaw bombers'
candy riddled the petrified farmer with jawbreakers.
'BOOM'
Resulting into a huge explosion,shattering the farmer into pieces that were send everywhere. soos made a shield to protect them from the explosion and the scattered remains
"is it over?" soos asked looking at the scattered remains of the farmer
"not quite yet!" [glitter and gold] says emerging from a large chunk of the farmer,she was all cracked and part of her was flaking off.
"this fight,has really worn me out. i didn't expect simpletons and commoners like you to have such strong abilities. only the deserving should have power!" she screamed angrily
"or so i thought" she said lowly
"but i'm afraid i can't give up like that. that is against the northwest code!" she says creating tendrils of gold
'SQUEAL'
'SHING'
"wha-" [glitter and gold] said,behind her was a giant copper axe which connected to [big muddy] near waddles
"damn...pig" she says being cut on half and dissolving.
"ah it's finally over" said mabel kneeling on the ground,she looked at waddles before hugging him
"all thanks to you,best of piggies" she says as waddles happily squealed
"that was something,man i swear this place got even weirder with you guys around" soos said
"well,i guess when you have fighting spirits,that happens i guess. now i need to sleep" candy says basically collapsing on the ground
"yeah,it's pretty late. you better get some rest dudes" soos says taking candy inside.
"thanks soos" mabel said following suit
"no problems dude" soos says closing the door
SCENECUT
"leave wendy! i don't wanna harm you" robbie says as [EAM] throws a punch at the lumberjack
"it's too late when you try kill a friend of mine!" wendy says flipping over the large arm,freezing it as she touched it.
"wha-" robbie says confused feeling the cold feeling on his arm,as she flipped wendy created a ice axe and swung it and the large stand creating a layer of ice across robbie's chest as it spread
"dammit,spin" he says desperation,the symbol of a play button appearing,robbie felt himself getting faster
"ah,sorry wendy!" he says as [EAM] does a stand barrage. wendy is able to dodge some but she's having trouble.
On a fair distance away,dipper was laying on the ground barely conscious,he sees the scene of wendy fighting robbie
"wendy? she's... fighting robbie...because of me..." he struggles tsking heavy breaths looking to see the scorched pieces of his stand flying in the wind
'my stand is pretty much gone, which means i'm going to die soon as well. not like this...i can't let wendy hurt herself more because of something i did,there must be a way. i can't-no! i WON'T let another tragedy happen,even if my soul is destroyed'
"I CAN'T GIVE UP" he shouted
'good,you have accepted that you can do better' dipper looked to see another figure in front of him
"who... are you..."he says
'don't remember me? i have been with you,since the start of the summer when you found that journal,until niow as i warpped myself to protect you' the voice said,dipper eyes widened
"so...you are... [maps and legends]?" he said incredulously
"your willpower to defeat robbie and protect your friends were enough for me to evolve... [maps and legends] ACT II,now give me an order'
back with fight,wendy was dodging and blocking some attacks with the valkyrie behind her,occasionally trying to hit robbie but he was too fast. while caught distracted [EAM] swiped wendy's legs causing her to fall,the large stand lifted it's fist.
"sorry wendy!" robbie shouted full of regret as the stand brought it's hand down on the red head,when it was inches away from wendy's head...it suddenly moved sideways hitting the ground and not her
"what?" robbie expressed his confusion,feeling something in his arm he looked and saw a compass attached to his arm,like it was part of his flesh
"you missed robbie" said a voice behind the emo teen. dipper was there,struggling to stand but his hands had leaves sticking to it and seemingly healing his wounds as the cracks of bones moving into place echoed in the forest,his stand besides him but it was different.
[Maps and Legends] was a bit bulkier,and was now dressed like a steampunk inventor. it's arms were covered by platings of with 3 compasses in each forearm,it's clothed were colored blue. he now had a monocle over one way and a top hat with the symbol of a pine tree
"you bastard,a new look won't help you. kill him [EAM]" robbie ordere,the edgyfied copy throwing a punch at dipper. [maps and legends] shook his finger and when the large fist came closer,robbie saw the arrow on the compass point towards him. [EAM] fist never made contact as it suddenly curved,missing dipper and hitting robbie instead in the face
"hmmm!" robbie exclaimed as his face was pretty much caved in by the powerful punch
"whaaah" robbie said standing up
"forgetting something" his eyes widened as a sudden cold wahsed over him and encased him whole in a large ice cube
"that's what you get" wendy said,looking at her former friend
the red head snapped back in reality "oh yeah dipper!" she ran over to her friend and supported him with her body
"is everyhting okay? i'm sorry i let that happen,i should have payed more attention to robbie's behavior and-"
"is fine wendy,this was my fault too. if me and mabel hadn't tried to show off,he wouldn't feel attacked. i guess in the end it's a lesson to all of us" he said,looking at wendy's stand
"so,how did you get that" he asked
"oh this,after you two fell,the owl necklace glowed and this showed up. guess it follows me now" she said
"guess so,what you gonna call it? these stands usually have a name like [maps and legends] over here" he says showing his new stand
"hmm,how about [cool as ice] ?
"that's a good name,pretty cool" he joked as they walked towards stan,who was outside the forest.
SCENECUT
Everyone was back in the shack,dipper was bandaged through his body to recover faster while mabel,candy and wendy were sitted around him
"so... pacifica's stand attacked you two,with a giant farmer?" dipper asked,both girls looked at each other
"yeah...but you seem like you got a better day,falling through trees and fighting robbie or whatever happened" said mabel pointing at her brother's bandaged body
"at least he is done for" dipper said sighing
"but it was a experience,i'm gonna take care with my friends on the future,but thanks anyway dipper" wendy said sitting beside him as the other girls got closer
"that's what friends are for right?" mabel said putting her hand out,the others doing the same
"yeah!" they all said before laughing together. the camera zooms out revealing someone spying the pines with binoculars. they lower to show a girl with long black hair and glasses
"they will see...that he belongs to me. MY little dipper" she said.
SCENECUT
in a dark place,cloaked figures gathered around a table
"so robbie was defeated,expected. but not so soon" said the center figure
"i tried to warned him,but he got too reckless,those hormones these days" said a cloaked figure on a wheelchair
"although this does foil us a bit,we can still put our plans in motion. keyhole is your team ready?"the center figure asked as three cloaked figures walked foward
"yes,we are ready to go foward with our plan" said a young but mature voice
"yes" said a scraggly voice
"hrrrrrrrrrrnnn" groaned the larger of the three
"then you may start" the center figure says grabbing a medallion in the shape of a golden triangle with a eye on the middle...
