Alcor the Dreambender
Chapter 4
It was dark. Not pitch black, but some greenish darkness that barely allowed shapes to form. Except her brother. He whirled around, sensing Mabel there.
"I have nothing to apologize for." He growled.
"Y'know...That doesn't sound like an apology to me." She tried to fight it, but some invisible force controlled her mouth.
"Bite me." He snorted.
"I trusted you."
"Well then you can't exactly blame me, can you? It was your mistake."
"Why are you such an ass?" The words were out before she could stop them.
"Everyone has to excel in something, right?"
"You've broken my trust, Dipper!"
"Better a broken heart than a broken neck." Suddenly, what felt like rain started pouring down on them.
"You're insane!"
"I know! Isn't it great!" He advanced on her, and Mabel backed away slowly. He had smoke in his eyes and death at his back. His demon eyes were glowing as he whispered, so quietly that she could only just hear it.
"I find peace in the rain." He shoved her. She toppled over, and then...
She was tumbling through the air, colours flashing before her eyes, wind howling around her. Reaching out she tried to grab something, anything, to slow her fall.
Mabel sat up in bed, so fast her tired bones groaned and protested. She gasped for air, gulping it down greedily as her eyes adjusted to the darkness surrounding her. Real darkness. Not the erie stuff from her dream. Dream.
She nearly fainted with relief. It was just a dream, a nightmare. Not real. One hundred percent, absolutely not real. Then she froze.
But Dipper could control dreams now, or something like that. I find peace in the rain. The words echoed around her head. What did it mean? Why did he find peace in the rain? Was he hiding something? Is he becoming evil like Bill? She glanced over at his side of the room, over at his bed. He wasn't there.
She breathed a sigh of relief, and felt guilty doing it. But to be honest, she didn't know what she would do if he was.
But if he wasn't there, then it really was a dream, and not her brother at all. Tired to the bone, she lied back down, and began to meow her self to sleep.
I find peace in the rain.
Sorry this chapter is so short. I just felt that this needed to be by itself.
