Chapter 4

Summer ends and things change.

Before they knew it it's August 31st. Today is Dipper and Mabel's birthday. Yumi Ford, and Stanley are in the kitchen. Ford and Stanley have just finished making breakfast. Yumi smiled and said "I'll go get them up." She walked down the hall then bounded up the stairs. Quietly Yumi opened the attic door and went in. She went up to Mabel's bed and shook her. As Yumi shook Mabel she said "Time to get up birthday girl." Mabel yawned and opened her eyes. She stretched and sat up. Then Yumi went over to Dipper's bed. She shook him and said :Time to get up birthday boy." Dipper groaned, stretched, then opened his eyes.

Now that they are awake. Dipper and Mabel followed Yumi to the kitchen. They went into the kitchen and saw pancakes, eggs, and turkey bacon. After eater they helped clean up.

"So you two what do you want to do today?" asked Ford

"We want to spend the day with you, Yumi, and Grunkle Stan." replied Mabel

As the day went on they played boards games. And then they watched movies. After dinner they had birthday cake. Dipper and Mabel then opened their presents. Ford and Yumi gave Dipper his own journal to write in. The older man cautioned Dipper not make the same mistakes that he's made. And Stanley gave Dipper a DVD box set of his favorite paranormal show. Yumi gave Mabel a plush that she bought in Japan. Ford gave Mabel a sweater that he knitted himself. And Stanley gave Mable a new scrapbook to fill up. The next day they all got into the Stanmobel. As Stanley drove to the bus stop. Yumi is curious about something.

"Hey Dipper is Dipper you're name or a nickname? That you got thanks to your birthmark?" asked Yumi

"No Dipper isn't my actual name it is a nickname. My actual name is Mason." replied Dipper

"Cool I like the name Mason." boosted Yumi

Dipper blushed a bit and said "Thank you Yumi." Soon Stan parked at the bus stop. Dipper and Mabel got their bags out of the trunk. They talked until the bus arrives. Dipper and Mabel got on the bud. Ford, Yumi, and Stan watched as the bus. Closed it's doors then drove down the road. Soon school started in Gravity Falls. Yumi is a freshman in high school. She also tried out for the track team. Luckily the coach like what he saw. And added Yumi to the track team. Two years have passed and Yumi is 17 years old. And has finished her junior year in high school. She had As and Bs in school. And was MVP on her track team again.

Stanley and Ford's birthday is coming up. And Dipper and Mabel are on their way up foe summer. But there is something wrong with Ford. For the past two years he's been teaching at the community collage. And four months ago Ford came down with a bug. But he seemed to have gotten over it. But he's had a nagging cough ever since then. In secret Ford went to the doctor. The doctor diagnosed Ford with a virus. So after he's done teaching for the day. Ford would go to the hospital for treatment. But the treatment that the doctor recommend doesn't seem to be working. Because Ford hasn't been getting any better.

Right now Yumi is texting back and forth with Dipper. For the past two years Yumi has grown closer to Stanley, Mabel, and especially Dipper. And last year Dipper and Yumi decided to started dating. They know a long distance relationship might be risky. But they are willing to make it work. That and Dipper plans on moving to Gravity Falls when he's old enough to move out. Stanley is watching TV in the living room. And Ford is in his room writing at his desk. Suddenly Ford started coughing uncontrollably. He got up from his desk to get his handkerchief. Ford headed to his dresser to get his handkerchief. But as he walked he started to feel light headed. Just as he reached his dresser. Ford's eyes closed shut and his body hit the floor with a thud.

In the living room both Stanley and Yumi heard a thud come from Ford's room. They left the living room and went into Ford's room. Once in Ford's room. They saw Ford laying on the floor by his dresser. Both Yumi and Stanley rushed over to Ford. Yumi shook him while Stanley said "Sixer wake up are you ok?" No matter how hard they tried Stanley and Yumi couldn't wake Ford.

"Ok Yumi help me get him out to the stanmobel." stated Stanley

Together Stanley and Yumi picked up Ford and carried him out to Stan's car. Stanley opened the back door and they laid Ford on the back seat. Yumi closed the back door then got into the front passenger side. Stanley got into the diver's seat. He fired up his car and drove to the hospital. Once at the hospital Stan parked his car at the emergency entrance. Yumi got out and rushed into the hospital. Emergency personal came out with a gurney. They got Ford out of Stan's car and place him on the gurney. Then they rushed into the hospital. Stanley drove his car to the parking lot. He parked his car. Then he and Yumi went into the hospital.

An hour later the doctor came up to Stanley and Yumi.

"Are you the ones that brought in Stanford Pines?" asked the doctor

"Yes we are I'm his twin brother Stanley. What's wrong with my brother?" replied Stanley

"I'm afraid that the virus is getting worse. The treatment I've been giving him has stopped working." informed the doctor

"What are you talking about? What virus what treatment?" asked Stanley

"Didn't Stanford tell you that I diagnosed him with a virus and that I've been treating him?" asked the doctor

Both Yumi and Stanley shook their heads no. Then Stanley asked "Is there anything that you can do for my brother?"

"Yes there is I called the hospital in Portland. And talked with a college of mine. He said that there is another treatment that will work. It's on it's way as we speak." replied the doctor

"Can we see him?" asked Yumi

The doctor nodded and took Stanley and Yumi to room 215. Yumi and Stanley went into the room and sat next to the bed.

"I can't believe that he didn't tell us about all of this." sighed Stanley

"Dad probably didn't want to worry us. And thought he'd be better by now." stated Yumi

Four hours later the treatment from the Portland hospital has arrived. The doctor found a vain on Ford and started the treatment via IV. Yumi called Dipper and Mabel what is going on. Even Dipper and Mabel are surprised to hear that Ford is sick. But they are two days away.
