A small A/N before beginning... you'll understand at the end. This is for a song that four of the characters sing.
Bold - Gold
Normal - Mabel
Italics - Blue
Underlined - Dipper
Bolded Italics - Both Blue and Gold
Alright, let's get going! - K.
Previously...
She growled, "A human home. I can smell them. Plenty of fresh blood to shed."
"You are not shedding my family's blood," He spoke up, sitting down across from her.
She stared at him, "Who are you?"
"I'm surprised you don't recognize me. I mean, I'm not human, like you are now. I saved you from the heat, and got the drop working for you. My little brother made sure to keep you cold." He grinned, "We don't need you to overheat now, do we, Maria?"
She frowned, "How do you know my name?"
"Because I know lots of things," He laughed.
She looked down, "What do you want with me? Are you a hunter?"
"I just want to help you. No, I'm not. I promise," He smiled.
She frowned, "I don't trust you."
"I understand. ... would you mind answering a few questions?" He asked.
She sighed, "Fine."
"Alright. What's your full name? How old are you? Why are you in Gravity Falls?" He asked.
She frowned, "Maria Ann London. 329 years old. ... I... I was looking for my boyfriend... but I got lost in the woods and... passed out from overheating, as you know."
"... and who is your boyfriend?" He asked, biting his lip.
She smiled, "Bill Cipher."
He left after that, not sure how to continue talking to her.
"Well?" Will asked, leaning against the doorframe.
He sighed, "She still thinks I'm her boyfriend, but she doesn't recognize me. This is going to be harder than I thought."
"Is that why she's here? To find you? What if she's a hunter?" Will asked.
He snickered, "Yes, to find me. The third thing she asked me was if I was a hunter, and she seemed scared, so no. Besides, hunters are usually human, and she isn't human. At least... not anymore."
"... What about everyone else? How are we going to explain this to everyone else?" Will asked.
Dipper looked up from the book he was reading, "Explain what to all of us?"
"Well... there's a creature in the room that... isn't exactly healthy, and..." He frowned.
Dipper sighed, "...and?"
"... and may or may not think that I'm their boyfriend..." He mumbled.
Mabel grinned, "What kind of creature?"
"... You should all stay away from it. Only me and Will should interact with it, considering the fact that... they could smell you all and... wants to shed your blood..." He looked down.
Mabel gasped, "CAN WE FINALLY SEE THE VAMPIRE?!"
"No, Mabel... it'd kill you... I don't want that..." Will frowned.
He grinned, "It's not as bad as what you could do to her."
"I hate you," Will scowled and announced.
He laughed, "I hate you too, Will."
"Why is that?" Will growled, walking towards him.
He smirked, "You are weak. Weaker than anyone else. Even Pine Tree is stronger than you, and he doesn't even have magic!"
"Yet, you can't contain any of your anger, where as I, someone who practically used to cry all the time, can!" Will shouted.
He snickered, "Yet, you can't keep track of your kids."
"... are you really any better?" Will asked, annoyed.
He grinned, "Yes. At least I know where they are."
"I DON"T CARE! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU, AND WISH I NEVER HAD TO DEAL WITH YOU!" Will screamed, attempting to kick and punch him.
Aurora and Jasmine flinched at Will's word and both started to shake uncontrollably. They both gasped, noticing that Will had succeeded and had causing his nose to bleed.
He scowled, wiping the blood from his nose, "YOU DON"T WANT TO DEAL WITH ME? THEN GET OUT! GET OUT OF HERE!"
"Mabel... lets go," Will growled, grabbing Mabel's wrist, before stomping out of the house in anger.
Mabel looked over at Dipper, as she was pulled out of the house. She didn't look too happy. Dipper frowned, wanting to grab her and keep her in the shack. He wasn't so sure when her boyfriend, who was currently mad at his own boyfriend, his older brother, was holding her wrist tightly. Will was pretty much not letting her struggle, not that she wasn't scared to struggle in the first place, but it meant that he didn't want her to leave him. So, she went with him.
Mabel frowned, following Will deeper into the woods, deciding it was safe to talk, "So... where are we going?"
"Far away from the shack for a while," Will answered, continuing to walk.
Mabel sighed, "Do you have these fights often?"
"We used to. We're polar opposites, remember? Over the years, we just ended up ignoring each other if we're mad at each other instead of fighting. This time, however... was very different," Will explained, looking down at the floor.
Mabel smiled, "Could we go back tomorrow?"
"... I'm not sure about that, Mabel." He admitted, "Bill can be... unpredictable, as you can probably imagine. It'd be best that we stay out here for a few days."
Mabel frowned, "Do you know how to survive out here?"
"Yes, of course I know how. However, its bad timing," He sighed.
Mabel bit her lip, "Why do you say that?"
"We don't have much longer having to deal with this. A week or two at most, but... still. We can't be away from the shack for long in case... but... it's also best that we stay away... so I don't know what to do," He admitted.
Mabel looked down, "So... what do we do?"
"I'm not sure," He frowned.
Mabel grinned, "Hey, can you sing?"
"Yeah... why?" He asked, confused.
Mabel giggled, "Lets go back. I have an idea."
"... Okay."
Ford opened the door, staring at them, "What are you doing out here?"
"Gold," Will sighed, going inside.
Mabel nodded, "Yeah... he and Will got into a fight and... he asked for Will to leave, and I left with him."
"Hm..." Ford closed the door.
Mabel grinned, "I have an idea, but I need Dipper and Bill to make it work."
"Why do you want us to sing this song?" He asked, looking down at the lyrics, "I mean, I can sing, but... still. Why?"
Mabel giggled, "There's a reason. Please?"
"... fine..." He grumbled.
Mabel grinned, the boys only sighing as they looked down at the seven kids that were their audience, before Mabel turned the song on and they started to sing.
You join the underground cabaret today
Well hey there tell me your name
You try to run and tell the world but you're stranded in a darkened cave
Oh Henry, we hate you the same
So listen up my friend, there's more that meets eye
You power up the studio and bring them to life
Now play the beat that trickles through the halls or else your life is nevermore
Don't worry chum- It's not the music that dies!
Now listen up!
Our life support machine
Was brought to life by remarkable hands
Forget about the hell we've seen
The time has come to revive our band
So bang the drums to a rhythm, captivating the beat
And press the keys on the piano, for the ritual, please
The song's alive with the night
With your help we'll revive
The Devil's advocate- is staring right through your lies!
You're just retuning our old strings tonight...
I hope you turn on the light now!
Can I get an Amen in here? (Amen!)
You see the magic of art
It would tear you apart if you knew!
Can I get an Amen in here? (Amen!)
This magic is fueled by your heart
But the dreams in his eyes were untrue
He had bigger plans for the band
By demand, we came back to this darkened cell-
You're gonna break us out of this hell!
We've been stars since the rhythm days, but our instruments have all grown tired
And in the end our only dream was to dance, they took the dance away and we got retired
But that was long ago, we have a new change of face
We turned it up a couple notches, with a brand new pace
You think they all just erased us, betrayed us, enslaved us-
But the deed is done, and now we want to get out!
Now listen up!
Ain't it nice to be underground
With a good ol' friend like me? (A friend like me, yeah!)
So you notice that sign, we ain't lying
But sit down and take a seat, (Take a seat!)
There's an exit for sure, but that's for shmucks
But a little bit of ink and a couple of bucks
We could reopen the curtains and show off the strut-
But for goodness sake, you gotta just believe!
You're just retuning our old strings tonight...
I hope you turn on the light now!
Can I get an Amen in here? (Amen!)
You see the magic of art
It would tear you apart if you knew!
Can I get an Amen in here? (Amen!)
This magic is fueled by your heart
But the dreams in his eyes were untrue
He had bigger plans for the band
By demand, we came back to this darkened cell-
You're gonna break us out!
Go to sleep
My little sheep
It's time to rest your head
Whether alive or dead
I am the keeper of the key that will set us all free
I bring the demon back to life (bring the demon back to life)
There's a song I sing that shows us the light
Even in the lighter side of hell, we sing with delight
Play the notes that I require
This will please my desires-
You have given me the tools to restart this fire!
There's a twisted fate that controls us and betrays us
My friends have a death wish and all of this is him to blame!
Now we've brought him to his knees
Your only hope to escape this
Is to embrace this
We need your help to keep this demon at bay!
LET'S END THIS TODAY!
"You're the conductor of this performance now, Henry," Will grinned.
Dipper asked, "Will you take their word or ours?"
"Golly, I hope this works," Mabel smiled, excitedly.
Will shouted, "You turned on this machine... now you have to believe!"
Can I get an Amen in here?
You see the magic of art
It would tear you apart if you knew!
Can I get an Amen in here? (an amen in here)
This magic is fueled by your heart
But the dreams in his eyes were untrue (untrue)
He had bigger plans for the band
By demand, we came back to this world of grey-
Welcome to the Gospel of Dismay!
