Drape Fear
"Okay, are you on?" Katie Mitchell, cousin of Pacifica Northwest was hitting her video camera in an attempt to record her family trip with her brother, Aaron; her dad, Rick; her mom, Linda; And her cousin, Pacifica.
Katie Mitchell tapped on her camera to try and turn it on and this time, it turned on and she started recording and smiled for the camera. "Hi, this is Katie Mitchell, and welcome to the Mitchell family trip!" Katie announced. "Right now, me and my family are parked up outside the Mystery Shack in Gravity Falls, Oregon, awaiting the arrival of my cousin, Pacifica Northwest. We recently reconnected and she apologised for a lot of things she did to me and I apologised after a wild adventure. Which did involve my dad trying to kill Michael C Hall."
"Hey, I wasn't trying to kill Michael C Hall." Rick protested. "I only wanted to strangle him until he lost conscious."
"Which is technically killing." Linda pointed out.
"It can count as not killing." Rick argued.
"Well…." Katie then moved her camera back to her and now Aaron, who was reading Jurassic Zoo by Mitchell Crichton. "…In case you are definitely not interested in what's going on. Now, you're probably wondering what we're doing, well, we're going to a lake called Drape Fear which is this lake that was briefly sued for sounding too similar to Cape Fear but that's another story for another time. Anyway, we're going there to have a nice family trip and enjoy ourselves and forget about whatever problems we have with my grandpa and uncle." Just then, Katie heard the sound of a door being open and she turned the camera to the door and instead of Pacifica being there, it was a pants-less Stan.
"Hey, have you four seen my pants?" Stan asked the Mitchells.
The Mitchell family then screamed at the sight and the old crooked uncle quickly ran back inside to try and find himself a pair of pants.
"Katie Mitchell signing off!" Katie exclaimed before shutting off her camera to clear her eyes.
"I always wanted to see a dinosaur…." Aaron complained. "….But not like this."
"That was nightmarish." Linda groaned.
"I think I'm gonna need to clean my glasses after." Rick said.
About 45 seconds later, Pacifica walked out to see her uncle, aunt and cousins looking disturbed. Pacifica pulled a smirk and then asked them, "You saw Stan without his pants didn't you?"
"And I accidentally filmed it." Katie commented.
"You gonna edit it out?" Pacifica asked as he approached her 11 year old cousin and gave her a hug which she accepted.
"Nah." Katie replied while filming herself getting hugged by her cousin.
Pacifica unraveled herself from her cousin and asked her uncle, "Where should I put my stuff?"
"Just put it in the trunk." Rick replied.
Pacifica listened and put her bag in the trunk, but she then suddenly got licked in the face by the Mitchell's family dog, Monchi.
"Aww! Sick!" Pacifica's random situation caused the Mitchell family to laugh out loud.
"Aww! I think its tongue went into my mouth!" Pacifica coughed to try and get the dog spit out of her mouth. "That is disgusting!"
"Did you get that Katie?" Aaron asked while trying to surpass a laugh.
"Yup." Katie laughed. "Oh boy, Drape Fear is gonna be super fun."
But meanwhile, a shirtless muscular man with a tattoo on his back which happened to be a giant dollar bill was doing some dips on some bars. The man soon stopped and turned around and it turned out to be Preston Northwest, who turned out to be rather buff for a rich greedy man. He put on his last fancy button shirt and got off the bars and walked towards the park exit where a park security guard was eyeing him.
"Sir, you do realise that this is the public park?" The guard asked. "If you wanted to exercise, then you should've-"
"My father will pay you." Preston interjected as he walked out of the park and saw a sign pointing to Drape Fear.
Preston then pulled out his phone, opened it and looked on Katie Mitchell's Facelibary page. On her post, she told her friends and followers that she was going to Drape Fear with her family and her cousin Pacifica.
"I'm on my way, my disgrace of a family." Preston announced before he started walking to the lake.
Meanwhile, the Mitchell family parked up by the lake and a huge yacht called The Rick Mitchell S, a name that caused some of the family members to cringe.
"Really, that's the best name you could come up with?" Linda asked her husband, disappointed.
"What?" Rick queried. "Why don't you like it?"
"The boat is nice Rick, it's just, how much did you spend on it?" Linda asked her husband.
"Oh, someone was selling them from someone who almost killed some millionaire and also, tax evasion!" Rick replied. "And I got it for only 100 dollars."
"Well, if it was for 1000 then, you'd be paying more for the divorce." Linda said while pulling a joking smile.
"Yeah." Rick then realised what his wife just said. "Wait, what?"
Pacifica looked at the yacht, feeling that it was somehow familiar and similar to something she had seen before. Heck, she felt she had been on it.
"Hey Dad, what does the S stand for?" Katie asked her dad.
"What do you think it stands for?" Rick asked.
"Uh, stupid." Katie theorised.
"If that's a legit response, then your wrong." Rick said. "Come on, guess again."
"Uh…..Special?" Pacifica queried.
"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Rick exclaimed. "Thank goodness!"
"Hey, has anyone seen Aaron?" Linda asked as he started looking around the parking lot.
"Actually, has anyone seen anyone?" Pacifica asked.
The Mitchells and Pacifica looked around the place and realised that they were the only ones in the entire lake.
"Yeah, it does seem very strange." Katie commented. "It's like 48 Days later."
"And how did that movie go?" Rick asked.
"Katie, if you're implying that we're facing zombies then don't." Pacifica requested. "I watched it with Dipper and let me say, I didn't get any sleep for two days."
"Trust me Pacifica, we won't encounter any zombies." Katie assured her cousin. "But we should be more concerned about the whereabouts of my brother."
"You sure he isn't underneath the-" When Pacifica tried to look under the car, Monchi then licked her yet again, causing her to groan while Katie laughed.
"Aaron!" Linda shouted.
"Aaron!" Rick shouted.
"Aaron!" A sudden Aaron shouted. "Oh wait, me."
"Aaron, where were you?" Linda asked worryingly.
"Oh, I wanted to learn more about Drape Fear and I got some information from some guy dressed as a lizard." Aaron replied.
"Some guy dressed as a lizard?" Katie asked.
"Yeah." Aaron replied. "And for some strange reason, he sounded like Michael C Hall."
"So, Michael C Hall gave you that?" Rick asked.
"No." Aaron replied. "It was that funny lizard guy."
"What does it say about Drape Fear?" Pacifica asked as she wiped the dog drool from her mouth.
"Oh, it says that this has a history of wars between humans and alien creatures called Mewmans." Aaron replied. "Where they fought over the town's supply of corn because Mewmans really love corn for some strange reason. Anyway, when the battle was won, the then queen, Queen Solaria Butterfly casted a spell that cursed this here lake. Saying and this is a quote from Mario McGucket, 'If there be those worthy on the 18th day of July that enter this lake, then they shall go through different universes that will test their fate. But if they do not succeed, then they will be lost forever. So, maybe that's why no one's come, they believe in some curse some mad woman placed on them."
"Well, that's not gonna stop us." Rick said as he started boarding the yacht. "All aboard everybody."
"Wait Uncle Rick, are you sure it's a good idea?" Pacifica asked her uncle.
"Come on Pacifica, are you really gonna believe in some hokey myth?" Rick asked his niece. "I mean, what's the worst that can happen?"
"A lot." Pacifica replied. "I've lived in Gravity Falls, I've seen some strange stuff. I've encountered everything from tiny miniature golf people that tried to decapitate me, I've encountered a ghost, I've encountered someone that stole my boyfriend's face and even I encountered dinosaurs!"
"Were they scientifically accurate?" Aaron asked.
"I don't know Aaron." Pacifica replied.
"Aww come on Pacifica, sure you've encountered a lot of strange and unique stuff, but can't you have faith and not worry about the curse being real?" Rick asked. "I mean, it's not like I'm gonna get hit by a bullet."
Suddenly, the Mitchell was hit on the head by a bullet which looked to be from a BB gun. "Ow! Who did that?"
Rick then walked on to the boat while rubbing his head with Linda and Aaron following.
Pacifica looked kind of worried about the curse actually being real, so she was quite hesitant to go on the yacht at first but Katie encouraged her.
"And if things do go bad, then Dad just jinxed us." Katie's words also made Pacifica made feel worried. What if something very bad did happen? And what if she was cursed?
As those thoughts crossed the Northwest, Preston was actually sneaking on board of the yacht without the knowledge of the Mitchells or Pacifica. He snuck on board, still wearing his last fancy buttoned up shirt while wearing some fancy pants.
Later, Rick was standing on the front of the ship pointing to a waterfall while explaining its unique history.
"This waterfall was what Barry Mitchell, my ancestor rode down in a wooden barrel and survived." Rick explained to his board looking family. "His family was sceptical due to the fact that nobody could survive. But did he prove them wrong….." Before Rick could answer that question, he got hit in the head by another BB bullet.
"Ow!" This sudden sight caused the family to laugh while Rick was rubbing his head. "Dang it, who's shooting at me?! Come on you punk, show yourself! I want to show my family what my ancestors did!"
"Look Rick, all this is very educational but some of us really wanna swim." Linda said.
"Yeah!" The others said.
"We will, once I've finished this family history while trying to get back at the pesky sharpshooter!" Rick exclaimed before another BB bullet hit him.
"Pacifica Elise Northwest!" Exclaimed a familiar voice that startled everyone.
They looked to the right and saw Preston Northwest climbing on board holding a harpoon and aiming it at the family. The sight of being threatened by a harpoon made Pacifica and the Mitchells to raise their hands in fear and worry. But Monchi was just panting at his reflection, threateningly.
"Dad?!" Pacifica exclaimed in confused shock.
"Woah, Preston, why are you aiming that harpoon at us?" Linda asked.
"Isn't it obvious? I'm threatening you!" Preston replied.
"Is this a pathetic way of trying to make me break up with Dipper?" Pacifica asked.
"No, I'm trying to threaten you to break up with Dipper while trying to get a ransom out of my father!" Preston replied. "And if things don't go the way I want, I'm gonna use the harpoon against you! That and also, this is my yacht!"
"Oh, that's why it looked familiar." Pacifica whispered.
"Enough chit chat." Preston demanded. "Linda, you better call dad and say-"
Suddenly, Preston got hit in the head by a BB bullet, causing him to be dizzy and then he fell off the boat, leading the short hostage situation to be over. Thanks to the mysterious sharpshooter.
The family lowered their hands while Monchi collapsed on the ground, feeling exhausted from threatening his reflection.
"Huh, jokes on him that harpoon was jammed." Rick said.
Pacifica, Aaron and Katie looked over to the boat to see if Preston was floating, but unfortunately there was no sign of him anywhere. Pacifica was a little nervous, since her father could've died and that sharpshooter might've been to blame.
"Oh dear, this is where the bull sharks usually hang out." Katie said regrettably.
Pacifica froze with her eyes wide in shock and fear while Aaron looked at his cousin with a reassuring look.
"He might be okay." Aaron said, trying reassure his cousin.
But that reassurance was gone once they saw some red floating on the water's surface, hinting that Preston probably had been devoured.
"Or, maybe not." Aaron said, making Pacifica feel a little….Well, shocked.
"To be honest, it does look like paint." Katie commented.
They then noticed, from the distance Preston somehow made it to shore screaming, "I'm not dead! But I bet you would've been happy if I-" Preston was silenced when another BB bullet hit him in the head.
"Well, at least we know he's alive." Katie commented.
Rick looked up and gave the mysterious sharpshooter a thumbs up for silencing Preston.
The mysterious sharpshooter, in case you haven't figured it out, turned out to be Janna, who looked kind of bored. "I'm bored. I wonder what them two old guys are doing."
Meanwhile, Preston watched as the yacht that was once his, now belonging to Rick Mitchell, sailed away leaving him on the beach to watch in anger.
"Preston, you've humiliated yourself for the last time." Preston complained. "It's a good thing your father didn't see you like this."
Preston sighed, disappointed himself for being a disgrace in the eyes of his wife, father, sister and even his daughter.
Then, unbeknownst to Preston, a mysterious humanoid lizard with a suit and tie sat next to the former rich man, pulling a disinterested face.
"You've been here long?" Preston asked.
"Thirty four seconds." Toffee replied.
"What do you even want?" Preston asked.
"To give you an opportunity for you to get your yacht back." Toffee replied.
"Oh, what do you know Michael C-" Preston turned to face the lizard and realised, he wasn't the TV actor and froze. He looked around, trying to understand what the heck was going on. Why was there a humanoid lizard that sounded like Michael C Hall sitting next to him? "Uh…..Michael?"
"If I was, I'd be trying to fit in." Toffee replied. "I'm a friend, Preston. Well, a friend of your father."
"What?" Preston reacted.
"And any friend or relative of Charleston Northwest is a friend of mine." Toffee replied.
"What are you even offering?" Preston queried.
"Hold still." Toffee replied before grabbing him by the face with his fingerless hand and pulling a capsule with light blue liquid from underneath his tongue with his other hand.
"What are you doing?" Preston asked, feeling somewhat intimidated by what Toffee was gonna do.
Toffee then used his thumb to open it up and dipped his finger into it.
"Don't you dare moisturise my face!" Preston aggressively demanded while Toffee dipped his finger in the blue gloop, intending to do something to Preston. "What are you-"
"Don't worry, gaining power hurts." Toffee said. "But in the end, it's worth it." Toffee then pressed his finger on Preston's face.
Preston's look of fear froze and his eyes then started to turn into a very light ice blue. As he stopped talking and pulled an emotionless face.
Meanwhile, Pacifica had just changed into a purple swimsuit which she was wearing, intending to swim in the lovely lake.
She decided it'd be a good time to call her geeky yet amazing boyfriend, Dipper. She typed in his number and pressed her phone on her ear.
On the other end, Dipper's cell phone started ringing and Dipper answered it. Well, Pacifica Dipper.
"Hello, who are you?" Pacifica Dipper asked.
On the other end, Pacifica seemed confused by the way her boyfriend spoke to her. "Uh….Dipper?"
"No, this is his father, Preston." Pacifica Dipper replied.
Pacifica glared at her phone, feeling offended by what her boyfriend was doing. "What is that?! Why are you doing that impression? I don't sound like that!"
"Uh, this is my normal voice you pointy nosed dork!" Pacifica Dipper retorted.
"I don't even think you're the real Dipper!" Pacifica yelled.
"No, I'm not!" Pacifica Dipper retorted. "Well, I am the real Dipper but I'm not your Dipper. I'm an alternative version of him or whatever you want to call it. He's upstairs trying to fix his relationship with his sister."
"Why?" Pacifica asked.
"Like that I care." Pacifica Dipper replied. "Like I care what that rough Dipper is doing, or that boring Dipper, or dog Dipper, or hairy Dipper. There were arguments and blah blah blah! Oh yeah. And then that dork's sister decided to hang out with the version of the dork that's exactly like his sister."
Pacifica looked bored listening to someone who was acting like herself in the worst way possible.
"Hey what are you doing?"
Pacifica smiled when she heard her boyfriend's voice over the phone. The real Dipper of course.
"No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No!" Dipper repeated. "Pacifica, I am so sorry!"
"Dipper, don't apologise." Pacifica replied while trying to surpass a laughter.
On the other end, the annoyed Dipper was sitting on the porch with his back against the wall. "Well, you've heard one out of the 6 other Dippers here."
"And am I to assume that Dipper, is basically like me?" Pacifica asked.
"Well, not exactly subtle." Dipper commented while smiling. "How are things at Drape Fear?"
"Well, my uncle Rick went on forever about his family's history and my dad tried to hold us ransom." Pacifica replied.
"What?!" Dipper exclaimed. "Sweetie, are you okay?" Dipper then realised what he said and bit on his phone aggressively. "Sweetie?!"
He then got back on to his girlfriend, who was laughing over her boyfriend calling her sweetie.
"Yeah, but then some sharpshooter who hates Rick then saved our lives by shooting him off the boat and into the lake." Pacifica explained. "He's okay. Are you okay, right now?"
Dipper sighed. "I just, got into a fight with Mabel. She thinks some other Dipper who acts like her is better then what she's already got."
"Dipper, she probably doesn't mean it." Pacifica assured her boyfriend. "She's just having another Mabel moment. I mean, she doesn't intend to replace you. At least, I hope not anyway."
"She'll come around Dipper, she probably-" Just then, Pacifica was interrupted when the sound of screaming was heard on the other end.
Dipper looked inside the Shack and saw Pacifica Dipper rubbing his eyes and then washing his hands with a ton of hand sanitiser.
"What was that?" Pacifica asked her boyfriend.
"Pacifica Dipper might've seen something that disturbed him." Dipper replied. "Probably something too bright and colourful."
"Listen Dipper, Mabel will definitely come around and realise what she said." Pacifica said, assuringly. "She'll realise she didn't mean it."
"Maybe she didn't mean it, you're right." Dipper agreed.
"I'm always right." Pacifica teased very flirtingly.
Dipper then laughed on the other end. "You're not always right."
"You still sound down Dipper, how about some cheering up?" Pacifica offered, very suggestively.
"Cheering me up?"
"Yup."
"How will that work?" Dipper queried.
"Want to know what I'm wearing right now?" Pacifica asked in a very flirtatious manner.
"Wait, what are you wearing?"
Just then, Aaron, wearing his dino swimming trunks, burst into Pacifica's room that she threw her phone at the wall while posing like nothing suggestive was going on.
"Aaron, knock on my door!" Pacifica shouted.
"You know stuff about the supernatural, right?" Aaron asked.
"I know some stuff!" Pacifica exclaimed.
"Then take a look." Aaron requested Pacifica.
Pacifica and Aaron ran up on deck where she saw Rick, in his nature swimming trunks; Katie, in a red swimsuit with a golden lion on it; Linda, wearing a purple bikini; And Monchi, dressed in blue swimming trunks like a champion diver; staring at something in the lake.
"Okay, what's going on?" Pacifica asked.
"The lake is glowing." Linda replied.
"Yeah, I know." Pacifica laughed. "I mean, it is the sun after all."
"We're not talking about that." Rick explained. "Look!"
Pacifica looked over the yacht and saw that they were right, there was a glowing blue circle in the water that was causing the fish to jump like crazy. This sight, baffled the Northwest girl.
"I don't know how to explain that." Pacifica said.
"Uh…..Could it be nuclear waste?" Katie theorised.
"Oh, you monsters!" Rick yelled. "You monsters! How dare you poison something even more?!"
"Rick, this waste looks dangerous, we should probably go to dry land." Linda suggested.
"I was thinking the same thing." Rick retorted. "I have a feeling that blue glue will melt the yacht."
Rick soon ran to the wheel and tried to steer to shore as fast as he could, but everywhere he moved, the blue light just followed him.
When he made a left, it followed; When he made a right, it followed. Basically, every direction he makes, the light just kept following him.
"Why is that light following us?!"
"Dad, it's not just the light we need to be worried about." Katie informed her dad.
"Why, what's the matter?" Rick asked.
"There's no dry land in sight." Pacifica replied.
The baffled Rick moved away from the wheel to get a good look at if what they were seeing was very true. And turns out, they were right. There was no sign of life anywhere. Heck, there weren't any cliffs anywhere, just clear blue.
"Impossible, they were there before." Said a baffled Rick.
"Uh, Rick!"
Rick and his family then looked overboard and saw that the blue light had surrounded the ship, probably intending to do something to them.
"I didn't wanna die like this!" Aaron shouted. "I didn't wanna die with Monchi chewing on my trunks! Monchi, stop chewing!" But Monchi didn't listen and he just continued to chew on his owner's dink trunks.
"It sucks we might die, but this will make a great found footage movie." Katie said while recording.
"This isn't the time to be recording!" Pacifica yelled in annoyance.
"Rick, do something!" Linda shouted.
Rick ran to the wheel and tried to turn it, but it was jammed. "I can't, it's jammed!" Rick shouted.
"Silence!" Yelled a British female voice, causing the Mitchell family and Pacifica to go quiet at the sound of the voice. "If you continue bickering I shall strike you down with furious strength and great anger!"
"Is this, the afterlife calling?" Aaron asked.
"If your definition of the afterlife below you is light and beautiful, then no." The voice replied.
"Oh, okay." Aaron replied uncaringly.
"Who are you?!" Pacifica asked.
"You shall know once you decide to do the tasks." The voice replied.
"Look lady, we won't do your tasks." Rick said, not afraid of the voice whatsoever. "We just want a way off this abandoned part of the world."
"Uncle Rick, I don't think talking to a voice like that is a good idea." Pacifica warned her uncle.
"Come on Pacifica, when has talking to a voice gone bad?" Rick asked.
"That's what the last person said." The voice said. "But without the Pacifica part. Anyway, since you, Rick Mitchell are being not very complying, I shall have to give you a harsher punishment."
"Wait, the spirit of the river knows my name?" Rick queried.
"Yes." The voice confirmed. "And this is for judging me." Just then, the water then turned into a hand and slapped Rick across the face.
"Ow!"
"Never judge a water spirit Rick." Linda advised her husband.
"Now, you will be acquainted with me." The voice announced before the glowing water started lowering the ship like it was on an elevator.
The family, despite feeling quite a bit terrified, were kind of mesmerised seeing schools of fish passing by. It looked very beautiful to say the least and made the family realise, that there's always a beauty to nature. But then, they got eaten by a ginormous bull shark, something that startled the family that they froze in fear and shock.
Rick coughed and then said with a questionable stare and shrug, "Circle of life?"
Once they got to the bottom of the lake, the water created a ramp for the Mitchells to get off, which they did, along with Monchi.
"Aww! We're gonna be stepping in squishy sand!" Linda complained. "I don't like squishy sand!"
"There's nothing wrong with squishy sand, Linda." Rick said. "It's the course sand we have to worry about. It's rough, gets everywhere, irritating and course. So, a little squishy…" When Rick walked off the ramp, he instantly realised that he was stepping on the course sand, something that irritated him. "….course sand."
Once they got off, they watched the wall of water as it moved and watching the schools of fish swimming by, living their lives.
"Wow, you don't see that everyday." Katie said. "We should ignore more vague warnings more often."
"And maybe we should listen to them more often." Pacifica retorted. "Uncle Rick, this is what happens when you ignore vague warnings."
"You sink underwater?" Rick queried.
"No, something supernatural and weird happens!" Pacifica replied. "Trust me, I went through this stuff with the ghost that haunted Northwest manor."
"She seems right, y'know." The voice said. Just then, the water around them started to morph into a person. She had fair cream skin, a shaved head, light turquoise eyes, and caramel yellow lightning bolt-shaped marks on her cheeks. She wore battle armor consisting of a gray and white heart-shaped breastplate with multiple red cords, iron gray boots with heart-shaped knee pads, gray armbands decorated with red hearts, and black wristbands.
The Mitchells and Pacifica stared in awe at her. She had the look of a warrior, a very powerful warrior. But Monchi was just licking the water wall, not even caring.
"Wow, shocking." Aaron commented.
"Referring to my lightning bolt cheeks?" The spirit asked.
"Not really." Aaron said. "I thought they were funny snakes."
The spirit laughed. "Oh, I like this one, he's weird."
"Hi, ghost water lady, who are you?!" Linda asked. "Because, I'm trying to spend the day with my niece and the last thing I wanted, was definitely a crazy water spirit kidnapping us."
"I have very high doubts it's this Queen Solar person." Rick said.
"I have a feeling it is." Pacifica said.
"My name is Queen Solaria Butterfly." The spirit replied. "Queen of Mewni, first of my name and killer of monsters."
"Dinosaurs as well?" Aaron asked.
"Uh…Sure, why not?" The Queen replied. "And maybe that animal?" The spirit pointed to Monchi, who was bush licking the water.
"Hey!" Katie exclaimed. "That's not a monster! It's Monchi!"
"What is that?" The Queen asked. "Is that meant to be a pig? Or a dog? A pig-dog? A pog? A Dig?"
"It's a dog." Rick argued.
"He thinks." Pacifica said.
"I think." Rick agreed.
"He was a rescued." Linda explained.
"Katie, are you getting any of this?" Pacifica asked her cousin.
"Already on it." Katie replied while recording the moment.
Everyone was a little quiet about what's happening right now, even the spirit; Since they don't exactly know what to even say to the spirit. Heck, even the spirit was silent.
"Honestly, this is the first time nobody's listened to the warning, so this is awkward." The Queen said.
"It's okay, it's my first time seeing a spirit." Rick commented. "So, don't feel left out."
"Why are you being friendly with a spirit?!" Pacifica asked.
"Honestly, she seems friendly." Aaron replied.
"But I've encountered spirits like her." Pacifica argued. "She could be dangerous."
"Dangerous schmangerous, what could go wrong?" Rick queried.
"Stop saying that!" Pacifica shouted.
"Yeah dad, every time you say that, something goes bad." Katie agreed.
"You mean like me, you, Mom and dad slowly being encased in ice?" Aaron asked.
"Yeah, something like that." Katie replied.
"Right now!" Aaron exclaimed.
Somehow, right now, the Mitchells realised that they were slowly being encased in ice, starting with their feet and creeping up their legs.
They tried to fight it while Pacifica quickly picked up a random rock and then started hitting the ice with it, but it was no use, because the Mitchells were now encased in ice with only their heads sticking out.
"Why of all days did I decide to wear my favourite bikini?!" Linda exclaimed.
"Why did I bring my video camera?" Katie yelled. Now it's gonna be damaged."
"Pacifica, help!" Rick yelled.
Pacifica started to hit the ice again with the rock, no matter how hard she tried to break the ice, it was too strong.
"Keep trying hard my chosen traveller." Queen Solaria said in a mocking tone. "Because that ice will never break."
"Unfreeze them!" Pacifica demanded.
"Oh, chill out." Queen Solaria quipped while the Mitchells just glared at her.
"Ice puns, really?" Katie sighed. "Aww man, you made all the ice puns in Catman and Snobby bearable."
"Why won't you unfreeze them?!" Pacifica exclaimed. "They did nothing wrong!"
"Oh my dear, it is so you have a reason to go on this quest." Queen Solaria replied. "Family is more important to people. It sometimes takes a-"
"Do I look arrogant?!" Pacifica interjected.
"Wait, aren't you a Northwest?" Queen Solaria queried. "Don't you, y'know not care about anyone?"
"Some have a change of heart." Pacifica replied.
"Yeah." Katie agreed. "So, she doesn't necessarily have a character arc instead of saving our butts."
"Oh, that's disappointing." Queen Solaria said.
"Yeah, so what do I have to do?" Pacifica asked the Queen.
"Oh, right." Queen Solaria then cleared her throat. "Forgive me, I haven't done this before." Queen Solaria then coughed once again to clear her throat. "It is on this day on the 18th day of July that I, Queen Solaria Butterfly task the one worthy traveller, Pacifica Northwest to help me gain the items I need to pass on to the spirit world. Since, judging by your memories, you helped a spirit cross into the spirit world once. Now, you have to do it again."
"How do you want me to do it?" Pacifica asked.
"I need you to retrieve three items for me." Queen Solaria replied. "One: A book about the life of my daughter; Two: A piece of paper that can fold into anything I desire; And, a mug that can give its user any drink they desire. You have that?"
"Yes." Pacifica replied.
"Then it is decided." Queen Solaria snapped her fingers and then Pacifica vanished into thin air.
"Ahh! Pacifica!" Linda screamed.
"Why are you screaming?" Queen Solaria asked. "She's fine. She's only on the quest."
"I know, but I think a bit of ice is pricking my thigh." Linda replied.
"Oh, sorry." Queen Solaria said.
"Will Pacifica be okay?" Rick asked.
"She will be." Queen Solaria replied. "She should be careful of the Underworld."
"Underworld?!" The Mitchells exclaimed.
Meanwhile, Pacifica woke up laying on a wooden floor that felt really smooth. She stood up and looked around the place. There, she noticed bookshelves stacked with loads of books and many artefacts, including a random spear titled 'Asgardian spear.'
"Asgardian?" Pacifica queried as she explored the mysterious library. Pacifica looked around the strange library which had more artefacts including, a ton of vases, a piece of a chopper, stones, a drawing of an adult Dipper and Pacifica getting married and armour that appeared to originate from China.
She then noticed a circular window with a funny looking symbol on it. It was a strange symbol that Pacifica wasn't even familiar with.
"Uh, what am I meant to be looking for?" Pacifica yelled.
"Aren't we asking the same thing?" Asked a mysterious voice.
Pacifica turned around and saw a man with brown hair, a brown goatee, a red cloak, blue suit that looked like something a Chinese warrior would wear, a brown belt on his waist and black shoes; Floating in front of her. Pacifica felt somewhat intimidated by the man who floated towards her and then landed in front of her. Pacifica was silent due to feeling intimidated by the man and feeling like she was gonna be in trouble.
"Well, aren't you looking for something Pacifica Northwest?" The man asked.
"Uh, how did you know my name?" Pacifica asked.
"I know a lot of people." The man replied. "And judging by you, you're the one that keeps rebelling against her parents and wants to leave her life of luxury to be with a middle class boy named Dipper."
Pacifica glared at the man, feeling quite uncomfortable. "Do you have any idea how creepy you sound?"
"Yes and I really apologise." The man said. "It happens a lot and I have had a lot of complains about that. Heck, even the police asked me questions. Now, since I know you're here for something important, how about we sit down?"
Suddenly, the room then changed to seating area and Pacifica was now sitting on a comfy chair in front of the mysterious man.
"Drink?" The man offered Pacifica a glass of orange juice that was on a table that just popped up in front of her.
"Do you have anything else?" Pacifica asked.
Then, Pacifica's orange juice turned into a can of Pitt Cola which she reluctantly opened and took a sip out of.
"Now, you're probably wondering who I am." The man said.
"I am wondering everything." Pacifica replied.
"I know." The man said. "And I'm wondering why Amity CAN'T PACK HER STUFF AND GO BACK TO THE BOLING ISLES!"
"Hey, I need advice on asking someone out!" Shouted someone named Amity. "And how did you know I was here?!"
"I know everything and do I look like a date doctor?!" The man exclaimed before snapping his fingers and making her disappear. "Poor girl, she's gonna be Grom Queen by the time she gets back. Oh sorry, introductions. My name is Doctor Stephen Strange, but people prefer to call me Doctor Strange. And you are in the Sanctum Sanctorum: My headquarters and an infinite library of knowledge."
"So, you know why I'm here?" Pacifica asked.
"I already knew you were coming." Doctor Strange replied. "And I know that you're not exactly wearing appropriate clothing for this area."
Pacifica then felt a strange tingle going around her body and she looked down and realised she wasn't in her swimsuit, she was in a purple V-Neck, emerald green skirt and white shoes.
"Uh….."
"Trust me, I didn't see you naked." Doctor Strange assured her. "I always skipped those parts."
"Wait, parts?" Pacifica asked.
Just then, Pacifica was now in another room which was filled with white books with names of random people.
"This is what I mean." Doctor Strange explained while holding a book. "I always loved your story. A classic tale of boy meets girl that is way out of his league yet gets with her anyway after a year and rich mean girl rebelling against her dictating parents."
"So, you know of my life?" Pacifica asked.
"Yes." Doctor Strange replied. "From beginning to end. And right now, we're on the page where you're looking for something."
"Yes." Pacifica responded.
"And then I ask, what you're looking for." Doctor Strange explained.
"I'm looking for the book regarding Solaria's daughter." Pacifica explained. "But, you already knew that."
"Right, to the Mewni section." Doctor Strange announced before suddenly ending up in a similar room with Pacifica, who got dizzy that she accidentally spilt her drink on the floor.
"Oh, Doctor Strange, I am so sorry." Pacifica said as she picked up her can.
"Refill?" Doctor Strange asked.
"Uh…Sure." Pacifica replied.
Then, she looked on the floor and noticed that her spilt drink was drying up and she felt that her drink was being refilled, something that baffled the Northwest a lot.
"Welcome to the Mewni section." Doctor Strange announced. "Well, more of the royal Mewni section. Every Queen, king and Princess that has ever existed, is in these texts."
"Why is there one missing?" Pacifica asked, pointing to a shelf that appeared to have a missing book.
"Oh, I'm currently reading one about the last Queen." Doctor Strange replied. "Well, the last princess, Star Butterfly."
"Why is she last?" Pacifica asked. "Did she not have any heirs?"
"That's what I wanna find out." Doctor Strange replied. "While I read on about what happened to Star, look for Solaria's daughter."
"Wait, don't you know who she is?" Pacifica asked.
"I do." Doctor Strange replied. "But, if I told you then it would cause some serious problems, so."
"Can't you cause one paradox?" Pacifica asked.
"No." Doctor Strange replied. "By the way, Globgor." Doctor Strange then walked out of the room while Pacifica stared at where Doctor Strange was standing, confused by what his last words meant.
"Globgor?" Pacifica reacted, confused. "What does that even mean?"
Pacifica then started staring at the books, intending to find the right one even if it takes her a long time.
"Okay Pacifica, this could be easy." Pacifica said to herself. "I mean, how hard can finding this out be?"
Time passed on as Pacifica flipped through page after page of detailed information after detailed information about Queen after Queen. During that time, she felt that her bones were hurting and that her body was changing for the better or the worse. She did have stuff to eat, which just so happened to just be an apple and a glass of water which appeared out of thin air.
Pacifica was tired looking through book after book to find the name of this one person who is Solaria's daughter.
Finally, Pacifica, now looking about 8 years older and having outgrown the clothes she was wearing had finally finished the book about Eclipsa. A lot of the buttons of her v-neck were unbuttoned and her arms have grown longer and her hair was very, very messy.
"Finally." Pacifica said. "Hey Doctor Strange, I've found it."
Doctor Strange walked into the room, still looking the same. "Okay, Pacifica what's her….Ah!"
"What?" Pacifica asked.
"Well, seeing as there's no mirror in this room, you've kind of grown up 8 years older after five hours." Doctor Strange explained.
The now 21 year old Pacifica looked down and realised that the sorcerer was in fact right and she screamed. "Oh no! What if Dipper's moved on from me?! What if I have to wait a long time just for us to-"
"Quit whining." Doctor Strange interjected before using the eye of agamotto to reverse her back into her 13 year old self.
Pacifica looked at herself and saw that she no longer had the body of a 21 year old, calming down. "Oh, right. So, how did it end anyway?" Pacifica asked while buttoning her v-neck back up.
"Oh, terribly." Doctor Strange replied. "And I don't mean in a tragic-sense, I mean in a stupid power of love ending that went unexplained-sense. Yeah, she and her boyfriend Marco might've merged their Earth and Mewni into one."
"Oh." Pacifica responded.
"Yeah, when you encounter Tom Lucitor, her current boyfriend, don't tell him about how it ends." Doctor Strange suggested. "It might set him off. Or maybe he's at a point where he isn't an unlikeable rage monster. Like Dr Banner." Doctor Strange laughed at his joke while Pacifica just stared at the sorcerer since she didn't understand the joke whatsoever. "Oh yeah, you're not off this world so I don't know if I should be making that joke."
"So, where am I to go next?" Pacifica asked as she put the book in her bag that was suddenly next to her.
"First, I need a strand of your hair." Doctor Strange said.
"Hey, you're not getting my hair!" Pacifica protested.
Just then, Doctor Strange suddenly walked behind her and took a strand of her hair. "Ow!"
"This isn't the first time I had to take a strand of hair from a bratty blonde raised in luxury." Doctor Strange mentioned before using his magic to mess with Pacifica's hair strand and then turning it into a small bag.
The sorcerer then handed it to Pacifica who took it without any reluctance. "After your done with your quest and got the last artefact, throw it to the ground and this'll take you to the last location you were before you vanished."
"Uh, thanks." Pacifica said. "So, where am I going?"
"Right, you're after the paper that can fold into anything, right?" Doctor Strange asked.
"Yes." Pacifica replied.
"Okay…." Doctor Strange opened up a portal by spinning his fingers around a lot. "….Your paper is in a house known as The Owl House. There, you will be greeted by Eda, The Owl Lady. She's like your boyfriend's Grunkle Stan, only a woman and a witch and cursed."
"Right." Pacifica said. "Thanks for the warning and assistance."
Pacifica and Doctor Strange shook each other's hands, saying their goodbyes.
Pacifica took one last quick glance before walking into the portal to continue her quest.
Doctor Strange gave a sigh of relief. "Good thing I don't have to deal with anymore blondes born into a life of luxury."
"Excuse me!" Yelled a girl with blonde hair. "But we need your help!"
Doctor Strange sighed in annoyance. "I should've seen this coming."
Meanwhile, the Mitchells, still frozen in ice were watching as their free dog, was licking the water wall since the dog was thirsty.
"Hey Dad, do you think Monchi could try and get us some food?" Aaron asked. "Because I'm starving."
"Aaron, the best for food we can do is eat our own spit." Rick replied.
"Rick, we've been here for about an hour." Linda informed her husband. "Can't we at least try and have Monchi give us some food?"
"Yeah Dad, didn't you train Monchi to catch and maim fish?" Katie asked.
"I did, you're right!" Rick happily exclaimed. "Monchi! Monchi! Monchi!"
The dog looked up at his owner, pulling his signature dumb smile at his owner.
"Hey Monchi, go get us some food!" Rick requested.
"Wait Monchi, I have sandwiches in the boat, could you try and get us for them?" Linda asked. "Go on Monchi, go into the boat and get us the sandwiches."
Monchi stood up and then started running into the boat to get his family some sandwiches.
Linda gave her family a confident smile, but since this was there dog, they knew he might get it wrong.
Later, Monchi came back with a pen instead of sandwiches, a sight that disappointed Linda.
"Monchi, that's a pen." Linda said.
"Monchi, sandwiches are soft." Katie explained to the dog.
Later, the dog came back with a pillow instead of sandwiches, disappointing the family yet again.
"Monchi, that's a pillow." Rick explained. "The sandwiches are squared shape and have many layers."
Later, the dog came back with a DVD boxset of something called Broken Good in his mouth.
Aaron then sighed. "Monchi, that's Katie's DVD boxset. Okay, let's do something easier, bring bottled water."
Later, Monchi came back with a carton of orange juice instead of bottled water, something that disappointed the Mitchells instead of Aaron.
"Eh, that's close enough."
Meanwhile, Pacifica stared at the towering house that was trapping her in its shadow. She walked to the door which had an owl face as some kind of door knocker, at least she thought it was.
"Is this the Owl House?" Pacifica asked herself before smirking. "Where are the owls?"
"I'm an owl!" Exclaimed the door knocker.
The sudden sight of the owl door knocker speaking caused Pacifica to scream fall on the ground.
"Oh, it's great to see someone outside the door!" The owl exclaimed happily.
"You….can talk?" Pacifica queried, looking disturbed.
"Can talk?" The owl laughed. "I love to talk."
"Well, good for you." Pacifica said. "Listen my family are in-"
"Oh you have a family?" The door knocker asked. "I have a family too! Yeah, Eda the owl lady-"
"Eda!" Pacifica yelled. "I'm looking for her! Is she home?"
"Not right now." The owl door knocker replied. "She's out doing Eda things while I'm here trying to engage in a conversation with the flies crawling all over my face. Hey flies, do you like Dogs? That musical I saw Luz going on about."
"Yeah, I love dogs." Pacifica said. "Can you let me-"
"What's your favourite moment?" The owl asked. "I loved the scene where the dogs were fighting the owls. That scene was a hoot! I mean, that's funny because my name is Hooty. I mean, that was the name Eda gave me due to my famous hooting-"
While Hooty spoke, Pacifica sat on the porch looking bored as someone watching 3001: A Space Odyssey.
Just then, a pale white girl with green hair, pointy ears and purple school uniform with green sleeves walked up to Pacifica holding a handful of books. She looked at Pacifica and asked, "First time?"
Pacifica acknowledged her and replied, "Yup."
"Human?"
"First time seeing one?"
"No. I…Have some complicated feelings for one." The green haired girl replied.
"Do you wanna talk about them?" Pacifica asked.
"Why would I?" The girl asked rudely. "I just met you!"
"Good point." Pacifica agreed before groaning. "Will that owl shut up?! I need to see somebody who might know Eda! Heck, I'd even accept a demon!"
Just then, the door opened revealing the black dog with a skull looking mask, yellow eyes and pointy ears wearing a towel.
"Hooty, quit talking!" The dog thing yelled. "The flies are not interested!"
Pacifica then froze in fear upon recognising the voice since it sounded so similar to a familiar demon.
"Oh King, thank goodness." The pointy eared girl said. "Is Luz here?"
"Amity, who is this human?" King asked while pointing at Pacifica. "And why is she staring at me in fear like she is intimidated by me?" King then squealed happily. "Finally, someone is intimidated! Bow before me, weakling!"
Pacifica then screamed and then tacked King to the floor, startling Amity. Once Pacifica tackled King to the ground, she started choking him and punching him in the face.
"Ow! Ow! What is that for?!"
"You know what it's for, Bill!" Pacifica replied angrily.
"Bill?!" King exclaimed in confused shock. "I'm not this Bill guy!"
"I know that voice anywhere!" Pacifica screamed. "I thought you were gone Bill!"
"Hey! Hey!" Amity yelled pulling Pacifica off. "Get off of him! He's a friend! Of sorts!"
"You call him a friend?!" Pacifica yelled. "He almost destroyed my home town during Weirdmageddon!"
"Woah, so you know Bill Cipher?" King asked happily. "Can you tell me what he's like?"
Pacifica froze with confusion despite glaring at the adorable dog thing. "Wait, you don't know who Bill is?"
"Well, I've seen drawings but I don't know what he sounds like." King replied.
"He sounds like you." Pacifica replied.
"Wow, I wonder if we're related?" King queried. "We could be amazing as brothers."
"I doubt that." Pacifica said.
"Listen, can I let you go now?" Amity asked the Northwest. "Or are you gonna try and strangle King? Because if King was strangled-"
"Yeah yeah! I assume Luz might be involved." Pacifica said before Amity let go of the Northwest.
"So human, if you are not here to bow to me, what brings you here?" King asked while trying to look intimidating.
"Listen, I need a piece of paper for some water spirit who has my family hostage and she needs a piece of paper that can fold into about anything." Pacifica replied.
"Oh, you mean the paper of infinite uses?" King asked.
"I think so." Pacifica replied.
Later, King is seen in the attic looking for the paper Pacifica was looking for. "Let's see, rubber ducky, no!" King threw away the rubber ducky before continuing to rummage through. "Let's see…." King then pulled out an orb with an orange snake-like eye staring at him threateningly. "….I don't know what you are, but I like you!" King then threw away the orb.
While King was busy looking for the paper, Pacifica and Amity were talking to each other about romance.
"How do you know she doesn't like you back?" Pacifica asked the elf.
"I don't know." Amity replied nervously. "She's amazing and I'm scared she might have opposite feelings due to how I treated her."
"You know Amity, this girl, she sounds amazing." Pacifica said gently. "And honestly, I was like you and was suffering the same crisis. I was mean and horrible and crazy for a boy I was afraid wouldn't like me back. You just have to, wait for the right moment, but make sure it's not too late."
Amity then smiled at Pacifica, feeling somewhat better for her advice.
"I learn a lot from my boyfriend's sister." Pacifica said.
Just then, King threw the piece of paper at Pacifica, hitting her head. "Did she teach you how to dodge?" King laughed.
"Everything you do is gonna keep reminding me of Bill." Pacifica commented, feeling annoyed.
The Northwest then put the paper in her pocket while King was looking at the orb.
"So question: Where are you going next?" King asked.
"I need to go to where the mug that can give you any drink you desire is." Pacifica replied.
"Oh that's simple, you have to go to the Underworld." King replied.
"Woah!" Pacifica exclaimed. "Underworld?!"
"Yeah, so Amity will have to kill ya!" King replied.
"What?!" Amity and Pacifica exclaimed in unison while King laughed.
"Oh the looks on your faces!" King laughed hard. "I wish I had Luz's weird picture device thing, this would've gotten a kick out of her for sure! Nah, I don't need to kill ya to get to the Underworld." King then pulled a crayon from a drawer and drew a circle with a diamond with a happy face in the centre.
"What are you doing, King?" Pacifica asked.
"Summoning the entrance." King replied. "Now stand back, things are gonna get icky." King then put on a red cloak and closed his eyes and started to recite something in reverse. "ytimuL spihs ohw enoyreve esaelp nac ti os rehtegot eb zuL dna ytimA teL!" The drawing then lit ablaze and then the fire shaped drawing opened up to reveal itself as a portal to the Underworld, feeling quite worried.
"Is it dangerous?" Pacifica asked.
"Nah, the Prince of the Underworld is some sensitive demon with anger issues named Tom Lucitor." King replied. "Or as me and Eda like to call him, Tom Losertor!" King then laughed at his terrible joke which Amity just rolled her eyes at in annoyance.
"Okay, so should I worry about him?" Pacifica asked.
"Nah, he's a good kid." King replied. "But his parents are lovely. Really nice people. Now good luck and try and not go into the ocean of lava. That numbered degree burn is no laughing matter."
"Uh, thank you." Pacifica said. "And Amity, good luck with her." Pacifica gave the white elf one last smile before jumping into the portal to the Underworld to get the cup.
"Thanks Pacifica!" Amity yelled.
"So, who's the lucky person you're interested in?" King asked.
"A person called Mindyer Business." Amity replied.
Meanwhile in the other world, Monchi was once again failing to bring the stuff that the Mitchells had desired. This time, he had brought a packet of batteries.
"Monchi, those are batteries." Katie groaned.
"We should've trained him better." Rick said.
"Twenty attempts and he still can't bring measly sandwiches!" Aaron exclaimed.
"Aaron Toby Mitchell!" Linda exclaimed. "Don't you dare call my sandwiches measly!"
"Ha, watching him fail to get your desired item is so amusing." Queen Solaria laughed.
"Wait, you're just watching this?" Rick asked, feeling somewhat confused.
"Yeah." The spirit replied. "I was at first gonna do something about it, but then, seeing him fail constantly had me laughing harder then ever before."
"Wow, you Mewmans seem like a bunch of jerks." Linda commented.
"Nah, we're not all bad." Queen Solaria assured them. "You should be careful of…..Well, me actually."
There was a few minutes of awkward silence before Rick eventually asked the spirit, "Could you give us our sandwiches?"
"Nah, I'm good." Queen Solaria replied while laughing at Monchi glaring at his reflection on the water wall.
Meanwhile, Pacifica had eventually made it to the Underworld. She turned and noticed the ocean of lava with the lava waves rising and lowering repeatedly. She felt that her shoes were melting due to the ground she was on being so hot.
"How can anyone get used to this?" Pacifica grumbled.
She then noticed a nice looking home that she never expected to be there. To her, it looked like the kind of home a family would live in.
Then, a light purple skinned demon with three eyes, wearing a red torn shirt and blue jeans walked out, holding a box of eaten chocolates.
"Excuse me!" Pacifica yelled out to the demon boy.
"Can I help you?" The demon asked.
"Yes, you wouldn't by any chance know where this Tom Lucitor is, right?" Pacifica asked the demon boy.
"As a matter of fact, you're looking at him." Tom replied. "By the way, do you know if chocolates are bad for dogs?"
"Tom, I was told by King that-"
"King!" Tom's eyes then turned red and fire started to rise behind him. "What did that monstrous beast say about me this time?!"
Just then, a tall red demon wearing a black dress popped out from behind the house and started yelling at Tom in some demonic language, a sight that terrified Pacifica.
Tom then reverted back to his usual calm self and sighed, "Yes Mom."
"Wait, that's your Mom?!" Pacifica asked.
"Yeah, you're not the first person to ask how my Mom and Dad made it work." Tom said. "By the way, what is it you wanted to tell me?"
"Tom, King told me that you knew where the mug that can give you any drink that you desire is." Pacifica replied.
"Oh, the Mug of Desirable Beverages!" Tom exclaimed with a smile. "Yeah, I know where it is."
"Where is it?" Pacifica asked. "Is it somewhere safe?"
"Sure, it's over there." Tom pointed Pacifica to where the cup was, which was the lava ocean. A sight that terrified Pacifica.
"You mean, in that ocean of lava?" Pacifica asked in fear.
"Oh no, don't worry." Tom assured her. "If it were I would've gotten it. But no, it's in the cave of past regrets."
"The cave of past regrets?" Pacifica queried.
Later, Tom and Pacifica were standing outside of a cave with a skeleton that looked like it was crying.
"The cave of past regrets."
"So this is it, huh?" Pacifica asked.
"Yup." Tom replied.
"Why do they call it that?" Pacifica asked.
"You think you're the first person that tried to gain the mug?" Tom asked. "Many have tried to gain the mug but unfortunately, non have returned."
"That's not what I asked." Pacifica said.
"Oh, yeah." Tom coughed. "They call it the cave of past regrets since this cave shows something that happened in your life that you very much regret. That's why none have returned. Seeing the one thing that they regretted made them insane."
"If I start going in there, will you rescue me?" Pacifica asked the demon.
"No. Last time I went in there, I couldn't even come out." Tom replied. "My Mom had to rescue me. I wish you the best of luck…"
"Pacifica."
"After that ocean?" Tom asked.
"Because it sounded like a name that'd suit me." Pacifica replied before taking a deep breath and entering the cave.
Pacifica started to walk in the cave which so far, didn't seem so bad. But the more she walked in the cave and passed the skeletons of the past explorers that looked to be crying their eyes out.
"Jeez, did they all die like this?" Pacifica asked while shuddering.
Pacifica started to walk deeper in the cave where she saw a vision of her young self destroying her cousin's film, Catch Dog If You Can. A sight that made Pacifica cringe. She walked deeper in the cave feeling somewhat regretful, but she knew she had a task to do.
"And that's not jealously, talking, I'd say that to her face….." Pacifica looked behind her and saw a vision of Dipper in his red shirt and shorts staring at her with wide eyes and said, "…You're the worst."
The vision of Dipper then disappeared and Pacifica, groaned, feeling insulted.
"I thought this was the cave of past regrets not the cave of past regrets and insults that weren't that hurtful." Pacifica then felt somewhat saddened when she thought about the words coming from Dipper's mouth. "Even if they come from the mouth of your then would-be-boyfriend."
Pacifica continued to walk deeper in the cave she she noticed a vision of her bribing Old Man McGucket with money to make her win the karaoke contest at the Mystery Shack last year, then she saw a vision of her mocking Mabel at Pioneer Day and her getting angry at Dipper when he was trying to explain himself during the infamous Truth Toad incident.
All sights made Pacifica feel quite sad with herself but she continued moving through the cave until she eventually made it to the mug that was placed on a stone pillar.
Pacifica shrugged her shoulders and said, "Why did they make it so hard?" Pacifica then picked up the mug and turned around to walk out of the cave.
While Pacifica was walking out of the cave, she suddenly bumped into a vision of herself where she was wearing huge circular earrings, a light purple shirt, a dark purple jacket and a light purple skirt.
"Uh! Watch where your going!" The vision of Pacifica rudely demanded.
Pacifica froze at the sight of her former self, feeling somewhat intimidated by her.
"L-L-L-Look, I'm so-"
"Sorry for what?" The rude version of Pacifica asked. "Sorry for being stupid? For leaving your life of luxury? For dating some stupid pathetic dork?"
"Hey! He may be-"
"A what?!" The vision of Pacifica exclaimed. "A bit of an idiot?! A jerk sometimes?! A dumb dork?!"
"But those flaws-"
"Make him stupid!" Pacifica exclaimed. "Just like that V-Neck! Did that stupid doctor hate fashion? Uh, you are a disgrace! I mean, do you even truly hate your father?"
"Shut up!" Pacifica demanded.
"I mean, even if you saw him you still love him despite the fact him, Mom and grandpa are toxic and as cold as ice!" The vision of Pacifica exclaimed.
"Shut up!" Pacifica screamed.
"Do you think your romance with Dipper will last?!" The vision of Pacifica exclaimed. "Because remember, summer romances don't last!"
"Shut up!" Pacifica screamed before running out of the cave with the mug in hand.
"Wow, she left faster then the others." The vision commented.
Meanwhile, Pacifica managed to get out of the cave, feeling scared and hurt about what the vision said to her. She suddenly dropped to her knees, realising that maybe the vision was right. What if she and Dipper won't last after summer ends? What if it doesn't work? The horrible thought of her and Dipper not being together after the summer ends, horrified her that she started tearing up.
But Pacifica knew that she had to stop crying right now, her family needs her and she knows that she needs to think about this later.
"Hey, real version of me!" The vision of Pacifica yelled.
"What now?!" Pacifica cried.
"Have you seen the skeletons?" The vision Pacifica queried. "They were here just a minute ago and now they're gone."
Pacifica stared at her feeling somewhat confused by what the vision was asking. "What do you mean the-"
Suddenly, Pacifica felt something grab her skirt and was dragging her to the hot ground. While Pacifica was on the ground, she turned around and saw that it was one of the skeletons that had dragged her to the ground. The skeleton, instead of its eyes being soulless, had blue eyes in his eye sockets.
This made Pacifica scream and kick the skeleton as hard as she could that its head fell off and it fell off the cliff.
She looked over the cliff and saw that there were many skeletons climbing up the ledge, in an attempt to attack her.
This sight caused Pacifica to panic and to try her best to run back to Tom.
Back with Tom, who was with Janna, looking at the art that Jana got in a dimension where fan art of Jana and Tom exist.
Tom was disgusted by this, while Jana was laughing at his reaction.
"Oh grow up Tom." Jana laughed.
"What is this sick joke?!" Tom exclaimed. "This isn't funny! Why would they ship me with you?!"
"Hey, a lot of people probably ship us together." Jana said. "Kelly's boyfriend does and I ship you with Marco."
Tom then froze about that information. "Wait, what?"
"Tom!" Pacifica screamed.
"Oh hey, Pacifica." Tom smiled. "You escaped."
"Yes!" Pacifica screamed. "I got the mug and turns out the cave also showed insults that hurt and also a vision that made me doubt everything!"
"Oh you went into the cave of regrets, doubts and harsh insults?" Jana asked. "Yeah, me and his mom made improvements."
"Wait, when did you meet my mom?" Tom asked.
"But that's not all, there's also-" Before Pacifica could finish her sentence, a skeletal hand popped out of the lava ocean, startling Pacifica, Tom and Jana.
Then, more skeletal hands popped out and then crawled out and on to the surface, with intent of hurting one of them.
Tom then started using his fire powers to burn the skeletons, which fortunately worked for some reason.
"Go, run!" Tom yelled at Pacifica.
Pacifica started running towards the house, but she then stopped and realised that she didn't know where she was gonna run to. "Wait, where am I running to?"
"Where are you running to?!" Tom exclaimed while burning some more skeletons with his fire powers.
Then suddenly, Jana joined in, holding a crossbow and shooting them in the head. A sight that baffled Tom.
"Where did you get a crossbow?" Tom asked.
"Stole it from some evil dictator who was the ex girlfriend of some six fingered man I met." Jana replied.
"Where were you hiding it?" Tom asked, slightly disturbed.
Meanwhile, Pacifica was checking that she had everything before returning home. She opened the bag and saw that the book was in the bag, the paper was in the bag and then she put the mug in the bag. "Okay, I got everything!"
"Hey guys, I got everything!" Pacifica shouted to the two.
"Then go!" Tom yelled. "Go before things get worst."
Pacifica then froze in fear and started walking towards Tom and Jana when she got a look at a familiar figure standing in the lava ocean.
"Well, aren't you going?" Tom asked.
"Wait, that person in the ocean." Pacifica pointed to a blue figure wearing grey armour in the middle of the lave ocean.
"I can't get distracted!" Tom yelled before jump kicking a skeleton into the lava ocean.
After about 15 more seconds, Tom and Jana eventually defeated the skeletons they finally got a good look at the mysterious figure in the middle of the lava ocean. He had light blue skin, dark grey sleeveless armour and a snow white moustache.
Pacifica squinted her eyes and realised that the man in the middle of the lava ocean looked exactly like her father.
"D-Dad?"
"Wait, that's your dad?" Jana queried. "He looks cold hearted."
"He's dangerous." Pacifica argued.
"Well if he's dangerous then….." Tom's eyes then turned red and he started floating and he started to approach him.
"Tom!" Pacifica screamed, trying to convince him not to burn her father.
But it was too late, Tom fired a massive stream of fire at the ice cold father of Pacifica Northwest, possibly burning him into water.
But once the fire cleared, Tom froze in shock once he realised what had happen. Preston Northwest, due to his new powers, was unburnt. He looked up at the demon boy and pulled a sinister smile before he started walking on the lava ocean towards Pacifica and Jana.
Tom knew he couldn't try again, since he seemed quite invincible so he flew back to the surface and tried to burn him in order to hold him back.
"You better get back home!" Tom exclaimed. "I don't know how long I can hold him, but I'll try."
Pacifica then opened up her bag and pulled the small bag that Doctor Strange gave her to get home. She remembered what Doctor Strange said before throwing the bag to the ground, causing her to vanish.
"She's gone dude." Jana informed Tom.
Tom stopped trying to burn Preston once he saw that Pacifica was gone but he also saw that Preston was still on the lava ocean, looking unburnt.
The blue Northwest narrowed his eyes at the demon before raising his hands in the air, causing more skeletons to burst from the lava ocean and appear to stand on it with him. He gave the demon and the weird girl one last look before vanishing into thin air.
Tom and even a surprisingly nervous Jana, knew that this guy was probably serious. If he is unburnt and can walk on lava, then how can he be stopped?
Meanwhile, Pacifica arrived back in a cloud of orange dust, causing the Mitchells to cheer.
"Pacifica, you're back!" Katie exclaimed happily.
"Excellent." Queen Solaria said. "That means you have my stuff. And you were only gone for half an hour."
"Half an hour?!" Pacifica exclaimed. "I thought I was gone for like two hours!"
"Well, time kind of works differently when you're travelling through different dimensions." Queen Solaria explained. "Do you have them?"
Pacifica pulled the book out, the paper and finally the mug and then handed them to the water spirit who took the paper first.
"Chair." The spirit said and then, the piece of paper turned into a chair that the spirit sat on.
She then picked up the mug and said gently, "Corn tea." The mug then filled itself with some kind of steaming hot yellow liquid.
The water spirit then sat on the chair while drinking her corn tea and reading the book about her daughter.
"Hey, now that Pacifica has all of the stuff you desired, can we be free?" Rick asked.
"A promise is a promise." Queen Solaria replied before snapping her fingers and making the Mitchell's ice prisons melt.
"Oh walking, how I've missed you!" Lina exclaimed while walking happily.
"Sandwiches!" Aaron screamed before running into the boat.
"Hey Solaria, why do you wish to read a book about your daughter?" Pacifica queried.
"Well, I haven't seen her for years and I wish to know what her life is like right now." Queen Solaria replied. "And I wish to do it in piece."
"So, will you send us back?" Katie asked.
"What are you talking about?" Solaria laughed. "You're already back."
And like that, Pacifica and the Mitchells were on the boat, floating on the watery surface feeling dazed and confused as to how they got back on board.
They froze in confusion, wondering if it was a dream or real and they were just confused about it.
"Um…." Reacted a confused Rick.
"Bed?" Linda asked.
"Bed." Everyone replied.
Later, Pacifica was in bed on her phone looking at pictures Mabel sent to her. Those which had the unsuspecting alternate Dippers talking.
The message said, 'Mabel and the 7 Dippers. The title of this strange adventure.'
Pacifica sighed and tried to message Dipper about what that vision of herself in the underworld was saying to her.
She typed in 'Dipper, will we ever last after the summer?' Pacifica was about to sent it but she sighed and decided not to. Instead, she typed in 'Hi, sweetie.' And hit send.
Epilogue.
The now powerful Preston Northwest was walking out of Drape Fear with an army of skeletons at his disposal. Once he got to the surface, he saw Toffee, Mabel Dipper and Miara, waiting for him.
"Hello Preston." Toffee said with a signature smile. "I see you have an army. By the way, do you like our new members?"
"Wait, Pacifica's dad is a part of this?!" Mabel Dipper exclaimed in shock.
"Oh yes." Toffee replied. "He's agreed to be a part of our horsemen and I let him test out his powers by chasing his daughter. And now, he's got an army of the dead at our disposal. While Miara has the Unfeeling. Which should be enough for an army once we retrieve what's in Stan's mind."
"You never told us what's in there." Mabel Dipper pointed out.
"I didn't." Toffee confirmed. "But who said the thing I wanted was a what? Could it be a who?"
