Review


"Do we have everything?" Dipper asked s he went through the backpack one more time. "Let's see we got a tent, some sleeping bags, lighter fluid, and a lighter." Mabel says. Dipper nodes as he starts checking stuff off of a list. "Oh my god almost forgot the smores" Mabel said as she rang in the kitchen to get marshmallows and Hershey bars. Cindy was almost knocked down by what she could only describe as a sparkling streak of light "What just happened?" she asked Dipper who responded "Mabel just realized we didn't pack any of the supplies for smores." He said and Cindy nodded "Is you girlfriend here yet?" she asked with a smile "No she is on her way and Wendy and Robbie should be here any minute." He said. Robbie had finally convinced Wendy to take him back after the whole hidden mind control incident and he and Dipper have come to a truce as Dipper had started dating Pacifica and he no longer showed interest in Wendy. "We are all packed." Mabel said as she entered the room but Cindy said "You forgot this" and she pulled out a bag of Smile Dip but Mabel knocked the candy out of Cindy's hand and she said "That stuff is EVIL."

Dipper heard a knock at the door and he shouted "I got it." He opened the door to and there was Pacifica. She had a sleeping bag under her arm and she had a worried smile on her face "hey Dipper." She said and Dipper noticed that something was bothering her "what's wrong?" he asked concern in his voice, she mumbled something "What was that?" he asked again and her face turned red as she said "I've never been camping and I'm kind of nervous." This almost caused Dipper to start laughing but he held it in when he saw that she was really nervous "Relax." He said "I'll protect you after all I am the guy who helped save Wendy and her friends from the haunted connivance store." This cheered Pacifica up but then another voice said "Listen Dork the only reason those ghost let us go was because you had to…" Dipper looked at the voice which belonged to Wendy and he cut her off "Pacifica doesn't need to know all the details." Pacifica saw his face turn red so she asked Wendy "What how did he save you guys again?" but Wendy just said "Sorry Pacifica I can't say but I can guarantee that what he did was a once in a lifetime opportunity to watch." Pacifica was going to ask more but then second they were all hoping in a van that Robbie borrowed from Thompson. They arrived at a clearing and while Wendy and Robbie started putting up the tents, Dipper went to go get some fire wood as he was heading back to the camp he tripped over a tree branch and scraped his knee "Crap" he said as he started to pike up the fire wood again and he didn't notice his blood landed on the ground where it glowed for a few seconds.

He returned to the camp site to discover that the tents were up and Robbie and Wendy were setting up some bean bag boxes.

"Hey dork want to play a game?" Wendy asked "I would but I have to start this fire" he said but then Cindy said "I'll do it Dipper I love starting fires." Dipper was slightly disturbed by Cindy's comments but then she started laughing and she said "I'm joking." Dipper went to play a game of bags since Cindy was starting the fire. Cindy had no idea what she was doing as she pilled the sticks together and poured lighter fluid on them, she couldn't seem to get the wood to burn and she was growing frustrated when her arm started to vibrate. "Why didn't I leave this stupid wand at home" she thought and the wand (which was taped to her arm) vibrated again "Sorry you are not stupid but I don't want to use magic for this." She said and she tried to get the wood to light but after five minutes she gave up and her arm vibrated again "Don't be smug I could always replace you." She said but she knew she was lying she had owned that wand since she was five years old and she would never get rid of it. The wand vibrated again "I was just joking calm down." She said and once the wand stopped vibrating she whispered "Inferno" and the wood busted into flames. Dipper was shocked he had seen that Lilly was having trouble and he was going to go over and helped her but when he a almost to her he heard her muttering and then he saw the wood magically burst into flames. He wasn't sure if he should tell the others or not but then he thought of his previous suspicions concerning her and he decided to investigate Cindy at a later date.

The group was having some smores when they saw a boy approaching. He looked like Dipper but he was at least 5 years younger, he didn't seem to notice the group as he said "I've almost got it soon we can all go home." He then ran into the forest. "Who was that?" Mabel asked as the boy disappeared into the forest "I don't know but he and his sister along with their grandpa showed up here a week before you guys moved here." Pacifica answered "Doesn't anybody know anything about him?" Mabel asked and Pacifica said "I've seen him and his family around town but they don't talk to people that much." Mabel sat in silence and thought about the boy, she didn't know why she was fascinated with the boy but he vowed to discover what he was doing in the forest.

"Hey Robbie I have a question" Dipper said causing everybody to stare at him "What is it squirt?" Robbie asked and Wendy punched him in the arm. "Why do you always wear Blake?" Dipper asked and this question shocked Robbie nobody had ever asked him this and though it didn't seem like it, it was a very personal question "Well…I guess it's because…" Robbie stopped his reason was a good one but he couldn't seem to speak it.

He slowly started to play the guitar and he started to sing (Song "Man in Blake" by Johnny Cash)

Well, you wonder why I always dress in black,

Why you never see bright colors on my back,

And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone.

Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on.

Everyone became silent as they listened to Robbie sing

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down,

Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town,

I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime,

But is there because he's a victim of the times.

A image from Robbie's past came to mind, his father had left at an early age and his mother didn't have a lot of money. He remembered going to school in dirty cloths and how the other kids made fun of him but he mostly remembered his mother crying about how she couldn't help him.

I wear the black for those who never read,

Or listened to the words that Jesus said,

About the road to happiness through love and charity,

Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me.

Robbie was nine years old when his mother died. He remembered the funeral and how there was one kind man who gave him a book that was all in Blake with the title in gold, the title of the book was the "Holy Bible"

Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose,

In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes,

But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back,

Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black.

I wear it for the sick and lonely old,

For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold,

I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been,

Each week we lose a hundred fine young men.

Robbie remembers the day his friend Lee got the letter saying he had been accepted into the army. He was so happy as he gave Robbie a hug at the airport and took off for basic training. The next time Robbie saw Lee he was being buried in a box with a 21 gun salute and Lee's family was crying

And, I wear it for the thousands who have died,

Believen' that the Lord was on their side,

I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died,

Believen' that we all were on their side.

Well, there's things that never will be right I know,

And things need changin' everywhere you go,

But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right,

You'll never see me wear a suit of white.

Robbie turned on the news yesterday there was a story on about another state legalizing gay marriage and he smiled but he frowned at the next story which was about a gay man being beaten to death.

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day,

And tell the world that everything's OK,

But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,

'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black

Everyone was silent as Robbie finished and then they all burst in to applause. Robbie smiled he always felt good when he was around his friends they helped ease the pain and the nightmares. Robbie remembers the worst and best memory of all; he was twelve alone in the wood when the creature attacked. The creature was shaped like a man but it was all decayed and Robbie instantly knew what it was. "Zombie" he whispered as the creature bit him and Robbie smashed the creature's skull. Robbie felt his body die but a few seconds later he rose again, he was hungry for flesh and he saw a family camping. He approached a little girl who was around his age and he was about to bit when she turned around "Hello you scared me." She said and he instantly fell in love "Sorry" he said and she smiled "It's ok I'm Wendy who are you?" she asked. Robbie smiled and he fought the hunger "I'm Robbie." "Hi Robbie I think we are going to be good friends." Wendy said as she smiled and instantly he knew that as long as he saw her smile everyday he could fight the hunger. Everyone slowly went to bed and everything became quiet but not too far away something was growing.
