Chapter 5- Party Time Pt. 4

A/N: I added in my own thoughts of music here but you don't need to listen to them while your reading. I highly recommend you listen to the selected tracks for better feel of the dancing/song described here, but that's up to you. Disclaimer note shall be at the end of the story along with the list of songs used and their artists.

I stood where I was clinching my fists tightly. I stared down Pacifica as she and her gang moved their heads back and forth to the beat of the music. Wendy changed the music track to something much more heavy after we were introduced. I analyzed Pacifica's group and I realized that she had two more people by her side!

'Probably her acquaintances.' I thought to myself.

Soos turned towards the Pacifica gang, "And introducing the storms of the seas, the wild winds of the party beasts! Four Direction!"

Everyone started screaming out loud shouting the name of Pacifica's group. Even Grenda and Candy couldn't resist. I swallowed the urge to shriek like a school girl and continued to stare down my enemy.

"Why are all the girls screaming out 'Four Direction' sis?" Dipper said over all the noise.

Grenda butted in, "They're like the most totally hot and most awesome boy band in the galaxy! Oh my falls I want to meet Bane!"

"No girl, he's mine!" Candy stammered.

"But I thought you liked Barry!"

"Love change's girl, love changes..."

I watched as Pacifica made a move and snatched the mic out of Soos's hand. She flipped her hair in the air and she looked at me. The entire crowd went silent and I was faced with the most terrible monster in the history of the world.

"You ready to lose sweater face!?" Pacifica growled.

"I should be saying the same thing sassy pants." I howled back.

"I'll make you regret you've ever been born!"

"Yeah!? Well I'll make you regret you've ever stepped foot into this Shack!"

I didn't notice as Pacifica and I started circling around each other like cowboys in a showdown. My fists were ready and so were my feet. I felt my eyes burn with confidence as I saw Pacifica place her hands on her hips. I stopped, and she stopped as well.

"Alright guys! We're ready to start the first round of the party off! The first round shall be the dance off! Each team will be given a few seconds to dance, and the crowd shall decide! When the next round starts, we will change the music up and start round 2! However, this isn't based on a point system. The winners of the round or game shall be decided with the Applause O' Meter determined by the crowd!"

Everyone cheered and clapped loudly and Wendy spoke through her mic, "Alright ladies and gentlemen! For the first round we'll be taking things nice and slow~. The first track is called "Good Morning Sophie" by Fon Leman. Now enough talken and get dancen!"

Wendy clicked the play button and soft trance music filled the entire Shack. Everyone in the crowd made a circle around our two groups, giving us enough space to dance and move around. Pacifica and her stupid group went to one end of the circle and me and my awesome group went to the other end. The crowd started to bob their heads to the beat of the music and some were already dancing lightly to the song. I couldn't help but sway back and forth to the sound of this peaceful techno.

For a minute I forgot all about my problems with Pacifica. All I saw was a wonderful party where everyone could be invited and laugh; having fun. But as I kept staring into Pacifica that warmth washed away. The thought of her just made me angry. Not only did she corrupt everyone here, but she hurt Dipper, my brother!

I stole a glace at Dipper and I saw him smile as he swayed his head to the music. I stared at his cheek and the scratch marks were still there. His soft, beautiful face was damaged. And there's no way I was gonna let that go...

"Both teams are you ready!?" Soos shouted through the mic.

All of us let out a loud "Yeah!" and Soos pointed towards our team, "Then let the party off begin!"

We marched in towards the middle of the dance floor and gave little bows to the crowd. So far there weren't a lot of cheers, but that didn't stop us from starting to dance. I moved my hips back and forth while moving my arms to the beat of the music. I didn't know much about dance but I did know a thing or two about parties. I just did my thing, being me.

"And Mabel's going in hot doing the wave! Look at those moves!" Soos exclaimed through the mic.

I gave off a half smile and started cha-chaing a little bit, with my arms close to my waist. I took a glace at Dipper and he seemed to be attempting to do some sort of break dance but he landed on his face pretty hard. I flinched at the incident and watched as the crowd started to giggled a little bit.

'I guess the fight he had with Pacifica wore him out a little.' I thought to myself.

Both Grenda and Candy did some creative moves. They both mimicked each other and did the mime. That gave us some cheers and applause but it wasn't enough!

I finished off our segment by doing the worm. I plopped down on the floor and started jiggling my body. After that I got off the dance floor and watched as Pacifica took her turn. She gave me the 'talk to the hand' gesture before she started doing the cha-cha. But... Something about her was a little different.

I watched as her hair swished back and forth as they sparkled against the neon lights that were flashing down on the crowd. Her hands, the way they moved with her hips were just hypnotic. I couldn't help but notice as she just swooned the crowd over. She flashed her waist back and forth and she lifted her shoulders up and down to the beat of the music that surrounded us.

"This is ridiculous right Dipper!? I mean come on, she's got those 'things' that girls my age shouldn't normally have! This is so unfair right Dipper?"

There wasn't any response.

"Dipper?"

I turned to look at my brother and I saw his eyes being transfixed towards Pacifica. His mouth was open a gape and he let out a soft, "Wow..."

I furrowed my eyes brows in worry and I looked at Pacifica again.

I watched her crew pumping their arms around her, surrounding her like her guardians, giving her the spot light. The crowd shouted Pacifica's name and letting out loud, "Wooha, wooha!" sounds as she wrapped her hands around her shoulders and started tracing her hands down toward her stomach. As she did so she turned her head towards our direction and stared at Dipper. She extended one hand towards him and arched her back towards the other direction, looking away from him. The crowd went wild as Pacifica walked toward her end of the dance floor. She gave us a smug look and I let out an irritated growl.

"We lost Mabel, we lost! She's got those curves girl! She's got those curves!" Grenda yelled as she fell down sobbing.

"Yes. She is doing the growing up! We lose already Mabel!" Candy moped.

"Girl's the battle isn't over yet, it just started!" -I turned towards my brother- "And Dipper..."

His mouth seemed to open even wider abut he shook out of his trance and stared at me, giving me the attention I wanted, "Yeah sis?"

"What were you doing looking at Pacifica like that?"

"Look at Pacifica like what? I didn't do anything I swear! I was just uh- I was uh- I was analyzing her movements! Yeah that's right, I was analyzing her movements so I can get a better advantage on how to beat her!"

I stared Dipper down, "Did you really?"

Dipper started to sweat and averted his eyes from my gaze, "W-Well-"

I cracked my knuckles and I glared at Pacifica. I wasn't mad at Dipper... Okay I'm lying I'm a little mad at him about Pacifica, oh my falls I'm going to kill her. First she hurts my Dipper, and now she's trying to seduce him!? Yeah I might not have the body to swoon the crowd over, but I sure do have my cuteness! I'm sure as heck that cuteness counts people!

I let out a huff, "Boys..."

"And the first round goes to Four Direction!" Soos yelled out towards the crowd.

Everyone cheered and cried out Pacifica's name like she was a super model or something. She gave the crowd kisses with her hand and she bowed.

I saw her coming our way while she continued to compliment the crowd and when she got to my face, she gave me a smug look.

"Ready to give up yet dunder head?"

"I'm part of the Pines family, we don't give up that easily. And if you will excuse me, I'm getting ready to kick your butt next round."

Pacifica just laughed, "Yeah like you're going to beat me with your moves for sure!"

I clinched my fist, "Why you little-"

"Admit it, I already won over the crowd with my graceful style. And you, you didn't even start it did you?"

I was thrown off by that question, "Start what?"

She sighed, "Idiots..."

She walked back to her group and she flipped her hair, teasing me to do the same. Even though it was tempting to do it just to beat her at something, I didn't. I was smart enough not to give into her stupid little challenge. I'll do that AFTER I beat the dung out of this little crab...

Suddenly the track made an abrupt stop and Wendy started to laugh, "Alright ladies and gentlemen, we all saw how that round turned out. But that's just the start! Now we'll pick the pace up a bit with 'Take Me' by Tiƫsto (Extended version). So far Four Direction is taking the lead, but hopefully the Pine's will make a comeback! Lets go Pine Trees!"

There was a small bit of clapping but it wasn't enough to fill Grenda and Candy's spirits. What made it worse was when Pacifica and her gang took the stage. They just gave us sly looks and in a synchronized fashion gave us thumbs downs. I felt my cheeks becoming flushed and they became redder when they started to move their bodies like butterflies. For a sassy girl I admit, Pacifica had some pretty good moves... Her hands moved with grace, her hips swayed with ease, and her legs were stomping to the beat of the music perfectly. The crowd cheered and went wild all over the place like little children seeing their favorite pop star.

'How are they this synchronized? Did they practice?' I thought to myself.

My heart burned and fueled with anger. What the bloody heck was going on here!? They aren't supposed to be winning, it was supposed to be us!

The surrounding crowd cheered louder as Pacifica finished off her segment with a wave of her hand. Gideon and Pacifica's acquaintances all keeled down on their knees, throwing one hand up in the air. Pacifica blew kisses into the air and she just waved. I watched as she even looked over at us, and she gave an air kiss in our direction.

I slowly turned my head to Dipper and I saw him dumb struck again. I watched him grin like a puppy for a few seconds and that's when I finally snapped. I grabbed Dipper by the shoulders and I made him face me. I looked deep into his eyes and he snapped out of his trance. For a minute he stared back looking a little shocked and worried. I had so many things to tell him, about what the heck he was doing, the way he was acting, and how he wasn't doing that to me... My heart just ached, every time Dipper caught Pacifica's eye he seemed so transfixed that he doesn't notice anything else. Why couldn't he do that to me...?

My heart pounded weakly against my chest and I felt my eyes start to moisten.

Dipper noticed right away, "Hey sis, whats wrong?"

I caught a tear rolling down my cheek and I wiped it away with my sweater, "I-It's nothing..."

I tried turning away but Dipper wouldn't let me, "Come on, I know there's something going on in that random head of yours. You're really upset about something-"

"Do you like Pacifica?"

Dipper was taken a back from the question, "N-No... Well I- No, I don't like Pacifica."

"Tell me truthfully Dipper, do you like her?"

Dipper thought for a second, "W-well... No, I don't. My heart belongs to Wendy and you know that right? So what's up with this question all of a sudden?"

I bowed my head and I placed a hand over my chest, "It's nothing... Absolutely nothing..."

"Mabel-"

I raised a hand, "Lets just get this dance part over with."

Dipper tensed up and I looked straight ahead. Candy and Grenda patted my shoulders and asked, "Hey Mabel, did something happen?"

I shook my head, "It's nothing girls, it's just you know... Girl stuff..."

"Oh, oh, girl stuff! I love girl stuff!" Grenda clapped.

Soos came onto the middle of the dance floor and raised his hands, "Alright boys and girls, we're about to let the Pine Tree's take the stage! Lets see if they'll be ready to rumble!"

I gave Grenda a half smile, "Maybe later girl, but right now we have to kick Four Directions butts!"

I didn't waste anytime but I did a somersault and landed in the middle of the dance floor on my face. But I didn't stop there, I slowly got up with my hands and I whipped my hair. I allowed some of my strands to cover parts of my face as I turned my head slightly to face the crowd. I gave them smiles and I waved one hand in the air with my other hand against my waist. The crowd gave out an 'ooh' and I started to move my hips. I tried my best to imitate Pacifica but I managed to make my own moves. Grenda, Candy and Dipper circled around me like planets and started doing their own miniature things like the wave and hand motions.

We finished off by doing random gestures and we received more claps then we previously did. But it wasn't enough on Soos's 'Applause O' Meter'.

"Sorry dudes, as much as I want to let you guys win they won fair and square."

We all nodded in understanding, "We understand Soos, you're doing a good job at being a ref you know that?"

Soos blushed, "Aww stop it you guys."

Soos turned around and he boomed through the microphone, "And the winner of the first game is Four Direction!"

The crowd applauded and chanted Pacifica's name. Others shouted Gideon's name and they both bowed at the compliments. I gave them a dirty look and huffed loudly. I wasn't one to get upset over a game but this time I felt a pang in my chest. I wanted to show her... I wanted to show her so bad, I wanted to show her that I can beat the rainbows out of her and make her eat her words!

"Alright boys and girls, settle down. This is just the beginning of a two game event! Four Direction won the first game but there is still hope for the Pine Trees! Now if both teams would be kind enough, please proceed to the stage!"

We all started moving up towards the stage where Wendy was getting a projector ready. She gave us a small smile as we walked up the steps and gave us a thumbs up. She came over and patted us on the back, "You guys did alright for the first game guys!"

"Nah it's more like we failed at it!" Grenda stated.

Wendy shook her head, "Nah, you actually got some cheers! I'm surprised cause you're up against Pacifica Northwest! Give yourself some credit guys!"

Dipper smiled, "Yeah Wendy's right! We deserve a little pat on the back. We just need to push a little more!"

"That's the spirit!" Wendy replied.

"So what's the next game Wendy?" I asked.

"Well... I hope you all got your vocal chords warmed up!"

Dipper's eyes opened wide, "You don't mean-"

"That's right, cause you'll be having, a SING OFF!"

"What!?" Dipper yelled.

Everyone went wild and started shouting and clapped to the idea of hearing someone sing. I've seen enough t.v to know where this was going. It was just like the S Factor, only except the judges were the audience and if you mess up you get booed in front of hundred of people... This. Is. Awesome!

Wendy grabbed her microphone and pointed towards the audience, "Are you ready to rock!?"

"Yeah!"

"Are you ready to scream!?"

"Yeah!"

"Are you ready, to hear the awesome sing off of the century!?"

The boys and girls once again cheered and started chanting our team names.

Wendy started to get excited herself and did some DJ scratching sounds, "Well then both teams, choose your singers! You can sing any song you want and the lyrics will pop up on the projection screen! Best out of 3 rounds declares the winner! Who will it be, Four Direction?

Pacifica and Gideon waved hands at the crowd.

"Or will it be the Pine Trees!?"

Only a part of the crowd cheered for us and I gave myself a smile, 'At least we got some people with us.'

"Now teams, choose your singers!"

Wendy clicked a button and a count down timer started ticking down at 30 seconds.

I turned to my group and I slammed my fist against my palm, "Alright guys, who's got the voice talent here!?"

Grenda shook her head, "Don't look at me, you already know I can't do it!"

I looked at Candy but she shook her head, "Sorry girl, but I only do the math! If this was academic fight then we win!"

I turned to Dipper but he shook his head, "Oh no... Sis, don't get any funny ideas-"

"Come on Dipper! I've heard you sing before, you were great!"

"Yeah, and I got humiliated by the whole school for my voice cracking all the time!"

"Well that was the past! Come on, please do it for me!"

I grabbed Dipper's hand and I gave him the puppy eyes. I moved in closer till my face was just inches away from his. I stared into his cosmic eyes and I saw fear, hints of worry, but also a dash of confidence. I understood what Dipper was going through. In the 5th grade he was made fun of because he was singing a song for the school graduation. However, his voice kept cracking (bad time for puberty I guess), and he got laughed at by all the parents and teachers. From then on, he vowed never to sing in front of a crowd again.

"Please Dipper, we don't have much time left!"

"But Mabel, I'm only good at rap! Nobody likes rap!"

"Wait you rap?"

Dipper nodded, "Yeah, I sorta... Only do that when you're not around... It's kind of embarrassing. But point is, no, I'm not going to do it! It's stupid!"

"Please Dipper! Do it for us?"

We both looked the timer and the crowd started counting down with only 10 seconds left.

I gave him one last silent plea and he just sighed. "Okay... But just this once!"

I smiled and we both turned to face Pacifica and her gang. I squinted and I saw Pacifica with her friend. She had chocolate like hair and dark skin and she bobbed her head with the music, giving me the sassy look.

I returned the same gesture and she gave me an evil smirk.

"The first team to sing will be Four Direction, with Pacifica taking the stage!"

She raised her hand and she gave me a smile, "Watch as I please the crowd with my beautiful voice!"

I crossed my arms and I watched as Pacifica asked Wendy to play a song. On the screen it read,

"Always Means Forever" by Jennifer Newberry.

"This is my favorite song, and I dedicate it to all my lovely fans!"

The crowd responded with cheers but then it got silent as the song started to play. The lights started to dim and a single spot light showered over Pacifica.

"Empty words can take you far... But how can you live with an empty heart?"

She placed a hand over her chest and she looked downcast.
"Always promising the world, thinking that it don't matter. If you lie to make things better..."

She turned to Dipper and gave him a sad look.

"I wish you never told me always~
You'd love me to the end of days
You had my mind drifting away,
Thinking that we were okay...
Made me trust again never!
Believed you'd leave me here scattered,lie you thought never mattered.
But always means forever..."

I turned to look at Dipper and his mouth hung open a little as we watched. Pacifica placed both hands on the mic and turned to the crowd.

"Just tell me the truth I'll be okay...

Don't keep me thinking you're in love with me."

She turned to Dipper again, "Let me go don't waste my time. Save my heart from all the lies!
Or thinking everything's alright..."

She started walking towards Dipper slowly and with a heart broken look on her face.

"I wish you never told me always~
You'd love me to the end of days
You had my mind drifting away,
Thinking that we were okay...
Made me trust again never!
Believed you'd leave me here scattered, a lie you thought never mattered.
But always means forever..."

She reached Dipper and pressed a hand on his chest, and looked into his eyes.

"Nothing hurts more then a lie
As if you left me here to die!
I laid my heart out on the line, but you were playing with my mind,
Don't know if I will be okay...
You cut so deep inside of me,
A word you thought don't matter!
But Always Means Forever..."

She started backing away still facing Dipper and turned her back on him, "Always means forever..."

She reached the middle of the stage and turned to face the crowd again but pointed at Dipper.

"I wish you never told me always~
You'd love me to the end of days
You had my mind drifting away,
Thinking that we were okay...
Made me trust again never!
Believed you'd leave me here scattered, a lie you thought never mattered.
But always means forever..."

She placed both hands on her mic again and the lights started to fade.

"Always means forever..."

Pacifica sighed and said loudly, "Alwaaaays!"

The crowd cheered and clapped loudly with some others screaming, "I love you!"

Pacifica bowed and whispered, "Forever..."

This earned more cheers from the crowd and Grenda grumbled behind us.

"I used to sing like that... Until my voice changed." She muttered.

Soos boomed over the mic, "And Pacifica takes a head!"

I strolled casually to Pacific and she bumped the microphone into my chest and grinned, "Try and top that!"

Pacifica turned away but paused and looked towards Grenda, "Oh and by the way, Grenda, you sound like a professional wrestler!"

She laughed and giggled while she walked towards her team.

Grenda fumed, "I want to put her in a head lock and make her feel pain!"

"It's not over till it's over sisters!" -I ran for the middle of the stage- "Watch this!"

I pointed towards Soos, "Soos, give me the most 80'iest, crowd pleasingist, rockiest song you got!"

Soos winked and pushed a button on his laptop. The song title read, "Don't Stop Believing" by: Journey.

"Perfect..." I said slyly.

The introduction played and the crowd went silent. I tapped my foot on the ground and I took steady deep breaths to calm myself. My mind went clear and I focused. It was time...

"Just a small town girl...
Livin' in a lonely world,
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere..."

The crowd started to clap slowly and I smiled.

"Just a city boy...
Born and raised in south Detroit!
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere!"

The crowd started to clap louder and get with the beat. Soon everyone in the Shack started to go along with the song. I began doing some air guitar as the song progressed to the next verse. And I got a wave of cheers from the cheering crowd.

"A singer in a smoky room...

A smell of wine and cheap perfume!
For a smile they can share the night,
It goes on and on and on and on!

Strangers waiting,
Up and down the boulevard!
Their shadows, searching in the night!"

The crowd started singing along with heart filled souls.

"Streetlight people!
Living just to find emotion,
Hiding, somewhere in the night!"

The crowd began to cheer and clap louder as the song continued. I took a glance at Pacifica and I watched as her mouth hung open from amazement. I grinned and I spun around at the heel of my shoes.

"Working hard to get my fill...
Everybody wants a thrill!
Payin' anything to roll the dice just one more time!

Some will win, some will lose!
Some were born to sing the blues...
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on!

Strangers, waiting!"

I raised my fist in the air.
"Up and down the boulevard,
Their shadows searching in the night!
Streetlight, people...
Living just to find emotion!
Hiding, somewhere in the night!"

I began doing air guitar again and the crowd went wild! Everyone cheered my name as I was in the moment. The spot lights all pointed towards me and I bit my lips as I went down to my knees. I took a deep breath and sang at the top of my lungs,

"Don't stop, believin'
Hold on to that feelin!
Streetlight, people!

Don't stop, believin'
Hold on~
Streetlight people!"

The crowd cheered and I spun my microphone around in the air. I caught it and I yelled, "I'm going to do a flip!"

I jumped and before I knew it, I landed on my face.

I looked up a little dazed and I hollered, "That was for you guys!"

As the song ended everyone cheered and shouted my name. The shouts rattled the Shack and I gave Pacifica a wink. I walked up to her and I handed her the microphone, "Try and top that!"

"Winner of the first round, the Pine Trees!"

The crowd cheered in agreement and I turned to face my team. They all clapped and jumped in the air at our first victory. As I walked over to my group I smiled and received a lot of praise.

Dipper gave me a huge hug, "You did it sis! You won the first round!"

I blushed, "Well I couldn't have done it without your support Dipper!"

Silence passed between us as we stayed in our hug for a long time. I placed my cheek against Dipper's and I felt my face become red hot. Feeling that I hugged for Dipper a little to long I patted his back, "Pat, pat!"

Dipper returned the favor, "Pat pat!"

We broke the hug and we both turned towards the next challenger. Pacifica's friend walked up to us with her chocolate like hair bouncing against her shoulders. Her white heeled boots clunked against the stage floor and she have us a sassy finger wave.

"The names Alexus Axis, the greatest rapper in history! You stupid fool you dare challenge me!?"

The crowd went silent for a second and Dipper's eyes darted back and forth. He gave me a weary look, but I just smiled and gave him a nod. He smiled back and he snatched the mic away from Alexus.

"Well I can tell you one thing, the stupid one is you. So why don't you turn around and boot?"

"You think you can take me on you stupid swine? I'll take you down, I don't even need to try!"

"Wow hold on there girl, no need to get mad! Cause this battle just caught on fire, I started the storm. I'll finish you off and make you wish you were never born!"

The entire crowd just went, "Oh no he didn't!"

Alexus just grinned, "Well now you're cocky like a guy that has no brain. I'll show you my jam and I'll make sure you pay!"

She pointed at Soos, "Hey fatty! Play "Remember The Name" by Fort Minor!"

"Wow no need to get all hurtful! Just let me find it... Here we go!"

Soos clicked play and as soon as he did the projector came to life once again. Shining it's bright light against the dim room. The lyrics started to appear, slowly and Alexus took the stage. She faced Dipper and she grinned, "You're going down fool!"

Dipper shook his head, "Show what you got!"

She took a deep breath and stomped her heels,

"This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!"

She began doing hand motions.

"He doesn't need his name up in lights
He just wants to be heard whether it's the beat or the mic
He feels so unlike everybody else, alone
In spite of the fact that some people still think that they know him
But screw em, he knows the code
It's not about the salary
It's all about reality and making some noise!
Makin the story - makin sure his clique stays up
That means when he puts it down Tak's pickin it up! let's go!

"Who the hell is he anyway?

He never really talks much
Never concerned with status but still leavin them star struck
Humbled through opportunities given to him despite the fact
That many misjudge him because he makes a livin from writin raps
Put it together himself, now the picture connects
Never askin for someone's help, to get some respect
He's only focused on what he wrote, his will is beyond reach
And now when it all unfolds, the skill of an artist

"It's just twenty percent skill
Eighty percent fear
Be one hundred percent clear cause Ryu is ill
Who would've thought that he'd be the one to set the west in flames
And I heard him wreckin with The Crystal Method, "Name Of The Game"
Came back dropped Megadef, took em to church
I like bleach man, why you have the stupidest verse?
This dude is the truth, now everybody be givin him guest spots
His stock's through the roof I heard he screwing with S. Dot!"

As she sang the chorus again I stared at Dipper and he didn't even look scathed. He just stood there squinting harshly at Alexus. She turned around and got up close to Dipper and gave him a smile,

"They call him Ryu The Sick
And he's spittin fire with Mike
Got him out the dryer he's hot
Found him in Fort Minor with Tak
Been a friggen annihilist porcupine
He's a butt, he's a nut
The type girls want to be with, and rappers hope he get shot!
Eight years in the makin, patiently waitin to blow
Now the record with Shinoda's takin over the globe
He's got a partner in crime, his mind is equally dope
You wont believe the kind of music that comes out of this kid's throat!"

She slammed her boots on the ground.

"He's not your everyday on the block
He knows how to work with what he's got
Makin his way to the top
People think its a common owners name
People keep askin him was it given at birth
Or does it stand for an acronym?
No he's livin proof, Got him rockin the booth
He'll get you buzzin quicker than a cup of sofa with juice!
Him and his crew are known around as one of the best
Dedicated to what they doin give a hundred percent."

She turned to the crowd,

"Nobody really knows how or why he works so hard
It seems like he's never got time
Because he writes every note and he writes every line
And I've seen him at work when that light goes on in his mind
It's like a design is written in his head every time
Before he even touches a key or speaks in a rhyme
And those acquaintances he runs with, those kids that he signed?
Ridiculous, without even trying, how do they do it?!"

"This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!"

As she sang the last verse Dipper's smile faded. I stood there stunned, Alexus could seriously rap. Not even I can do that and would Dipper even come close? I've never even heard him rap before... I'm seriously worried now.

Alexus finished and the crowd went hollered in approval. The remaining notes of the music played as she placed a hand over her chest and she grinned at Dipper.

"Think you got what it takes playa?"

Dipper stood there a little worried and he started climbing towards Soos. I couldn't hear what was going on because of all the noise, but I was confronted by Alexus.

"Your boy's going down you hear me? I'm the greatest rapper in all of history! Your little bro doesn't even stand a chance against me!"

I slapped her hand away, "You don't know my brother! Dipper's the greatest guy I've ever been with!"

She just laughed, "Yeah sure, that little guy being the best guy ever? Please, I've seen better."

"You take that back..."

"Or what?" She said glaring at me.

"Ladies and dudes, we have a special announcement!"

Everyone turned their attention to Soos, "Dipper Pines from The Pine Trees, has requested a custom made song that a guy named Adam WarRock and Dipper Pines himself made together! I have no idea what this song is, but he hopes you all like it!"

Dipper walked down the steps and landed on stage. "You're going down Alexus."

Alexus just huffed and walked away, "Bite me."

"And here we go! The song's name is "Gravity Falls Rap" by Adam WarRock! And let the second round... Begin!"

The introduction began to play and Dipper closed his eyes. He tapped his feet on the ground. Taking a deep breath he braced himself, concentrating on the lyrics that popped into his mind slowly. I watched as his gears turned and one by one they clicked. He took one last breath and took a dramatic stance, pointing at Alexus.

"Me and my sister Mabel took a summer vacation
To the place where green trees with the rivers and lakes and
It's where tourists come to see mysteries of that'll thrill
All locked up in a shack that we work until,

"Our Great Uncle Stan got a plan to make a buck or two
So we sit and wait with our production crew
That's Wendy and Soos, and all the local coterie that keeps coming 'round
Cuz you know that's how these crazy kids get down

"But when the sun goes down, it's like a whole new town
Mysteries abound, and just a place to horse around
Awkward sibling hugs (pat, pat), for the brothers and sisters
Do homework, washing dishes, cuz know we won't miss it

"When another mystery, it hits the television,
It's the kind of adventure that's got us hooked in,
So tell me what kind of city you live in!
Bet it's something different than this, it's something different then this!

"From now on, I wanna spend them all
Every summer down in Gravity Falls, y'all
I want it all, the mysteries call
Every summer down in Gravity Falls y'all!

"From now on, I'll never go back
Every summer at the Mystery Shack
Matter of fact, I want every summer back
Cuz I wasted every one that wasn't at..."

He turned to our group and he gave us a grin.

"And you can stay in Sweatertown til the sun goes down
But I'm on the SS Cool Dude, cruising around!
Gobblewonker's took a bite and tried to toss us around
And a whole gang of gnomes they tried to boss us around.

"But I got a book, that's like one of some others
WIth six fingers on the hand on the cover
And Lil Gideon, he's trying to win Mabel over, he wants a kiss or two
Cuz I guess she's so irresistible (womp womp)

"But there's more than meets the eye, ghosts and monsters that try
To get up in the way of a young boy and girl living their life
Manly Dan with his biggest fan, Toby and the gossiper
Try to tell your story to the officers!

"At the Mystery Shack, weird stuff always happens late
Wax figures take an axe and decapitate
Staying up late, watching the Duchess Approves
And taking money from rubes, while solving mysteries too, while solving mysteries too!"

Dipper took a deep breath,

"Ole me and my sister Mabel, gonna solve any thing we're able.
When we're stuck in the woods til Grunkle Stan's gonna put everything on the table.
And the town's gonna try, to make them feel like they're both crazy unstable.
But we got their back as we watch them do their thing on premium cable"

The crowd went wild.

"From now on, I wanna spend them all
Every summer down in Gravity Falls, y'all
I want it all, the mysteries call
Every summer down in Gravity Falls y'all!

"From now on, I'll never go back
Every summer at the Mystery Shack
Matter of fact, I want every summer back
Cuz I wasted every one that wasn't at...

"From now on, I wanna spend them all
Every summer down in Gravity Falls, y'all
I want it all, the mysteries call
Every summer down in Gravity Falls y'all!

"From now on, I'll never go back
Every summer at the Mystery Shack
Matter of fact, I want every summer back
Cuz I wasted every one that wasn't at..."

Dipper raised his microphone into the air and everyone cheered. Alexus looked dumbfounded as Dipper walked up to her and poked her with the microphone.

"Top that..." He said.

The crowd grew louder and continued to cheer. A girl even had the nerve to say, "Have my babies!" But Dipper calmly ignored her request (thank falls). As he walked back towards us his face began to gleam with confidence. He succeeded in winning the crowd over with his amazing rapping and I can't believe I doubted him for even a second.

Our entire team gave Dipper a huge group hug. Dipper couldn't help but laugh as the audience continued to shout and cheer.

"You did great bro..." I said snuggling against him.

"Yeah sis, I did good!"

As we parted I looked at his scratched cheek. At the moment it looked like a battle scar and well... It looked kinda hot. I stood awkwardly next to Dipper and I scooted a little closer to him until my fingers brushed against his. He didn't seem to notice while he continued to wave at his new found fans. I so badly wanted to hold his hand and share this glorious moment with him... But better yet, at least kiss him on the cheek! But that'll give myself away so I kept it to myself.

"So who do you think won the Sing Off!?" Soos hollered

The crowd continued to chant, "Pine Trees, Pine Trees! Pine Trees!"

Soos angled his arm and rose it like a meter. It went a total of 170 degrees and Soos boomed over the mic, "And now, approval for Four Direction!"

People cheered and chanted "Four Direction" but it wasn't as loud as our cheers. Soos started moving his "Applause O' Meter", he moved it and stopped at a 130 degree angle.

"Winners of the Sing Off are the Pine Tree's!"

The crowd didn't show disapproval and started jumping up and down shouting our individual names. I looked at Pacifica's gang to only see them fluster at embarrassment from failure. Even though I didn't punch them to get a good feel of victory, it sure did feel good to beat them down with skill!

"Settle down ladies, dudes. We all are excited about their victory but lets take a break. After that we'll announce the winners for the party crown! For now, we're going to bring it down a moment! Ladies, dudes, now's the time..."

The upbeat techno music slowly transitioned into a slow jazz song. Everyone around us lit up with excitement and turned around to find someone to dance with. People began moving slowly to the song with guys holding the ladies waists, and ladies holding onto the guys shoulders. I swayed to the music and I smiled.

"Hey Grenda, Candy, you have anyone to dance with?" I asked.

"Yeah we do!" Grenda grinned. "I got Candy with me! We always dance together in parties cause well, there aren't any guys that wanna dance with us."

Candy pulled Grenda down and spun her around, "At least we have each other!"

Grenda giggled, "Yeah I guess! But oh man, if only Barry from Four Direction asked me to dance!"

"Girl, he's mine!" Candy remarked.

They both started to argue as they danced to the slow music. I walked down the steps of the stage with Dipper and we ended up at the edge of the crowd. I stared at all the people dancing and an idea popped in my head.

I smiled, "Hey Dipping Sauce, you have anyone to dance with?"

"Well I could ask Wendy... But she's already busy with the DJ booth so-"

"That's a no then?" I blurted out.

Dipper nodded, "Yeah, I guess."

"Then well uh... You know, uh... You can dance with me? If you want that is." I stuttered.

"Sure? Why not?"

I couldn't help but squee as Dipper placed his arms around my waist and took my hand. I wrapped my other arm around his neck and I felt my heart soar into the sky.

Though Dipper was pretty small in stature, that didn't make him any less valuable. As we danced, I felt safe and strong in his arms. His hand that held mine, guided me with each step and sway we took. The lights that scattered around us, shimmered and shined brighter then before. The soft breathing from his nose brushed against my neck and sent shivers down my spine.

I looked up to see Dipper and I noticed that he was closing his eyes. I took advantage of that and slowly, ever so slowly, I pressed my body against his.

He seemed to notice right away, "Uh Mabel?"

I didn't bother to look up, "Yeah?"

I felt like Dipper wanted to protest, but he just let out a sigh. "Ah it's nothing. Just wondering why are you hugging me so tight."

"W-Well um... Is it wrong for a sister to be attached to her brother like this?"

"Well I guess not..."

I smiled, "Then there's no problem right?"

"Yeah, I guess. Now that I think about it, it HAS been a long time since we danced together."

"Yeah it has, hasn't it?" I giggled. "I remember the last time we danced we were seven, and we were dancing to the uh... What song was it again?"

"Cotton Eyed Joe?" Dipper answered.

"Yeah! Oh man, that was so embarrassing."

Dipper laughed, "I still remember the time where we were dancing to that song, and you kept whacking Tim Terry because of your sweater!"

"Well sorry for making my sweater a little to big!" I giggled. "But I didn't forget the part where you messed up your footing. I mean, seriously, you tripped over yourself!"

"Ah, don't remind me! I total forgot about that until now!"

I laughed again, "You know what they say!"

"Say what?"

"I don't know! I'm not a genius like you!"

"Well I'm not a professional at sewing like you sis!"

"Dahh stop it Dipper! Now you're being to nice!"

We gave each other smiles; then we danced again in silence. I couldn't help but rest my head against his shoulder and I was glad he didn't resist. His shoulder was like a reassuring pillow that made me feel safe. He was my shield and my sword, my knight in shining armor... But only if the knight can see that I was a princess and not just his comrade in arms.

Dipper let out a happy sigh, "You know... This party isn't as bad as I thought it would be."

"Same here, I thought it would be a total killer you know? I'm actually enjoying myself..."

"You said it!"

"Are you really?"

Dipper gave me an unscathed look, "Heck yeah, I don't lie about parties Mabel and you know that!"

I sighed, "I know, I know. I'm a little thirsty. Do you want to get something to drink?"

Dipper shrugged, "Sure, why not?"

As we tried to dodge the dancing crowd, Dipper and we ended up holding hands. Dipper lead me and we managed to find the refreshment table. I felt my head start to heat up. Just touching Dipper made my mind go gah gah. This was the beginning of a Mabel break down.

Dipper turned around, "Hey sis, why are you hot?."

I fanned myself, "W-W-What are you talking about?"

"I mean, you're like... Hot, I mean hot hot in like you're on fire."

I blushed even more, "D-Dipper! You're not supposed to say things like that to your sister!"

"No- no, that's not what I meant! I mean like you're hot! In your body is hot!"

I couldn't take it anymore, my head was fuming! "Dipper!"

"I mean, oh my falls, do you have a fever?"

At that moment I felt the Mabel Control Room (a.k.a MCR) explode from overloading.

Dipper winced, "Are you sick sis!? Come on, lets get you something to drink!"

"No, no, no, I'm fine Dipper really-"

"No way, come on. Just a bit further and we're there."

We walked a little bit longer and finally we were open to the refreshment section. Dipper quickly walked towards the punch and grabbed a cup. I sat on a chair not to far from Dipper and I closed my eyes. I tried to calm myself but the thought of Dipper's warmth just washed over me, making me feel hot again. I was tempted to take off my sweater but I felt a little self conscious about it so I left it on.

A few seconds later Dipper came back with the drinks. "Here you go sis."

I gladly took hold of the cup and gave him a nod of thanks. We drank our drinks in silence as we watched the partiers continue to dance slowly. All the while, I thought about ways to get closer to Dipper. The slow dance we had together was one thing but there just had to be something else...

I focused a little harder and massaged my head. I tried to find any remaining Mabels that might've survived the MCR melt down. Thankfully, I found two or three that were remaining. I thought back to my past knowledge from reading boy magazines and movies. I slowly felt my arm reach for a light switch and just like that, I had an idea!

I was still feeling a little hot but if I were a little overly dramatic...

I dropped my drink on purpose and I leaned back on my seat. "Dipper-" I moaned "-I'm not feeling so good..."

Dipper spit his drink from his mouth and shook me, "Mabel it'll be alright. I just need to get you some medicine or something and you'll be alright!"

I nodded my head, "So can we go to the Grunkle Stan's office? I also feel like I need some quiet..."

Dipper made an 'o' shape with his mouth, but he just nodded.

(*, My Big Dipper ,*)

I laid down on the couch and I pretended to feel faint. Dipper sat on my end of the couch and he propped himself up to be comfortable. I laid my head on his lap and I let out a sigh of satisfaction. It was quiet and warm with Dipper around. This could be the perfect setting for something romantic... But I know that I just can't rush things.

I looked at Dipper and saw him reading his weird book again. He always seemed to be staring at that dumb old thing every time there was nothing to do. But not tonight, oh no, tonight he'll be looking at me!

"Hey, Dipping Sauce?" I said.

Dipper didn't even bother to look at me, "Yeah?"

"I'm feeling a little tired, can you massage my shoulders?"

Dipper sighed, "Okay fine... But this better make you feel better. It's kind of embarrassing..."

I nodded, "No worries. I'm sure I'll feel better in no time."

I sat up straight and Dipper began massaging me. His nice, firm hands loosened every aching muscle that was bothering me. I couldn't help but let out a little moan of satisfaction. Dipper started to work a little faster and I began to moan even loader.

"Oh Dipper, that feels so good! Faster, faster!"

Dipper grunted, "I-I'm going as fast as I can!"

I shook my head, "It's not enough, Dipper!"

"Shh, quiet down! What if someone hears us!?" Dipper whispered.

"Nobodies going to see us!" I yelled.

I stared into the ceiling, feeling so fresh like a new born baby. My tension went away and I made Dipper have more skin-ship with me. But as he continued to massage me, I opened my eyes and I traced them to the door. I didn't know why, that's just where my eyes lead me. Then my moans became softer, and slower with each stroke until I stopped completely.

In the front of the door, was my clone, and Dipper's clone together... Just staring...

Dipper's arms went boneless and he deflated like a balloon.

"It's uh..." I stuttered. "It's not what it looks like!" I protested.

The clones just looked at each other. After about a second or two Tyrone gave Cake a frightening look and stared back at Dipper.

"Dipper get away from Mabel! She has a-"

Cake screamed over Tyrone and jumped on him. They both rolled into the darkness of the hall ways and were out of sight. Dipper and I got off of the sofa and we both scrambled after our clones. It was to dark to see who was winning or what was going on. But we did hear a lot of banging and some muffled noises. After a few minutes, the noises stopped and we were only left with silence and darkness.

Dipper looked at me, and I looked at Dipper.

"Uh... What was that?" I asked.

"I don't know, but Tyrone's in trouble! I'm coming buddy!"

I grabbed Dippers shoulder, "No I'll go. Cake attacked Tyrone and she might attack you... I have to fix this madness!"

Dipper just nodded and I ventured off into the dark. I took a few steps down the hallway but I couldn't see anything. However, that's when I stopped and I thought out loud.

"Hey Dipper, why couldn't we just turn on the ligh-"

I felt a hand cover over my mouth and I was pulled into a room. There was the sound of a closing door and I was starting to panic. I was about to scream and holler but that's when someone turned on a flashlight and whispered, "Quiet down!"

I looked at the persons face and I saw Cake shining the flashlight.

I let out a gasp, "Cake?"

Cake nodded, "Quiet down, we don't have much time before Dipper gets here!"

"What'll be so bad about Dipper coming in here?"

Cake shined her flashlight towards the other direction and I saw a gagged Tyrone struggling to free himself.

"Now you get why we can't let Dipper find out we're here!?"

I nodded my head in understanding and Cake sighed, "I screwed up big time... I totally did!"

"What did you do Cake?"

Cake looked at Tyrone, "While I was at the ticket stand with Tyrone so I couldn't help but feel attached to him. That's because when you copy someone at the cloning machine, it also copies their personalities, traits, everything!"

"So that means-"

"Yes, it means that I like Dipper as much as you do. But I promised myself not to get involved with the real Dipper for reasons. So I chose Tyrone, but..."

We both looked at Tyrone and he looked terrified.

"He wasn't really fond of the idea."

"Oh..." I said.

For a minute, silence took over. The only noticeable sound was from our breathing and our heartbeats. I found myself in deep thought and my heart breaking a little.

'If the clone Dipper doesn't like me that means the real Dipper doesn't like me either...'

"Hey, don't think that!" Cake said punching me on the arm.

I rubbed my arm and Cake just huffed, "This is the present Dipper but things just take time! You can't rush things with Dipper but you need to make things go a bit slow you know?"

"Yeah I guess so..."

"And hey, can I tell you something really nerdy?"

I looked up, "Sure."

"In Japan, there's a myth that if two star crossed lovers commit dual suicide, they get reincarnated as twins..."

"Wow... That's cool!"

Cake grabbed my shoulder, "So you can't give up sister! And as you said, it's not over till it's over!"

"Yeah!" I yelled.

Cake placed a finger over my lips, "But remember, you can't let anyone else know about your thing with Dipper. If someone finds out, word can spread to Dipper!"

"You're right... And because of that we can't have any-" I turned to face Tyrone "-witnesses..."

Tyrone started to freak out.

"Sorry Tyrone... It has to be done." Cake said taking a bottle of Windex.

"Should I stay here to watch?" I asked.

Cake shook her head, "No, it's going to get a little messy. You meet up with Dipper and when you have the time, meet me at the roof area where Wendy hangs out."

I nodded my head, "Don't worry, I'll be there."

I got out of the closet and I walked back towards the office. It wasn't very hard to find, in the dark cause it had light pouring out of it. But as I got closer I started to hear a voice, no, voices.

I tip toed towards the office door and I snuck a glance inside. My eyes opened widely to the sight. There on the couch sat Dipper and Pacifica, alone together, in a room... Just how long was I out?

Pacifica laughed and she slapped Dipper playfully on the arm, "You're so funny you know that?"

"That wasn't a joke! What're you even doing in here? Didn't you see the sign 'Employees Only'?"

"Yeah well I just wanted to have a look around. Is there really a harm in that?"

"Well I'd be glad to show you around if you didn't try to beat my sister to death, scratch my face, and give me multiple bruises."

"Okay, like oh my falls. Seriously? You can't even take some playful rough housing?"

"Playful rough housing!? You almost smashed my head open! Are you psycho!?"

"Maybe..." -Pacifica leaned in closed to Dipper- "Maybe not..."

Dipper blushed heavily, "I- I- Uh..."

Pacifica giggled, "You're so fun to tease. Look, I'm sorry we got on the wrong foot here but can we just make up and call it a day?"

Pacifica out stretched a hand. Dipper looked at it and froze for a second. I watched in agony as to whether take it or not and I prayed that he wouldn't. After a few grueling seconds, he shook his head.

"I can't forgive you just like that Pacifica. I'm sorry but I can't accept your hand."

Pacifica let out an annoyed moan, "Fine, whatever you loser!"

I went into the room just as Pacifica was about to leave and she stopped to turn around. "Here's my phone number and address if you need me for anything."

She took out a small card and tossed it at Dipper. "Nothing special, just a little good bye present."

Dipper caught the floating piece of paper and he called out to her, "Wait, you're leaving!?"

"Psh I'm not leaving, you are! I so totally won that competition like hello! The queen of partying is right in front of you guys. And besides, when you lose you're invited to my after party. Just call the number when you're ready to have some REAL fun..."

Just as she passed me she gave me whispered, "And I'll be seeing you at the battlefront sweater face."

"I don't know what you mean, but I take it as a negative compliment!"

Pacifica waved a hand and started walking away. My mind was a little furious due to the fact that Pacifica was talking to Dipper but I saw the way he told her off, I couldn't help my sigh.

I walked towards him and I sat next to him, "So what were you guys talking about?"

"Ah nothing... She just tried to get with me, that's all. I didn't really know how to react cause well, I never really flirted before."

"She flirted with you!?"

"Yeah, I know right? That girls totally weird Mabel. I won't recommend being her friend. Or being near her actually."

I nodded my head, "Yep, totally agree with you!"

We both headed out of the office and we started down the hallway towards the party area. We could already hear the continuation of techno music and loud shouting that vibrated in the air. As we came closer to the party we heard a loud booming voice, "Alright ladies, dudes, it's time for the crowning of the party crown!"

I gasped, "Come on Dipper! We can't be late for this!"

Dipper didn't protest and we both began running down the stairs and onto the dance floor. Already everyone was cheering for someones name or team. My heart pumped with adrenaline and we headed up the stage. Soos was waiting for us and he gave us small smiles. That smile gave me a small ray of hope and I couldn't help but have the confidence that we would win.

"Alright everyone, we all know how things went down tonight, am I right!?"

The crowd screamed in unison, "Yeah!"

"We all had a blast tonight right!?"

"Yeah!" They screamed.

"So are you ready to see who wins this fight!?"

The crowd screamed and hollered in excitement as they started chanting out different team names. I felt someone was staring at me and I turned to my left to see Pacifica taunting me. She placed a finger on her neck and slowly slid it across her neck. I held out a hand and made a fist.

"The 'Applause O' Meter' shall now start! Starting with Mabel's team, the Pine Trees! They went off with a slow start, but made an amazing comeback in the second game! Lets here it for team Pine Trees!"

The Shack vibrated from the cheers and the noise the crowd was making. Wendy had to crank the music volume up a koch to play over the crowd. But that didn't stop them from cheering out loud. I didn't bother covering my ears but I just fist pumped the air along with Dipper, Grenda, and Candy. Soos's arm went to a 170 degree angel and he gave us a thumbs up.

"Alright ladies and dudes, how about Four Direction? They made a strong kick at the first game but fell short at the second game! Lets hear it for team Four Direction!"

The cheering died out till there were only a few claps of applause remaining from the crowd. I looked at Pacifica and I raised an eyebrow. She looked at me with great fury and she stared at the audience. Without even trying, Pacifica threw daggers at each one of their hearts. The once soft claps became louder, and louder, and louder. I just stared, watching as all their souls were recaptured in one single swoop. The cheers became louder until finally, Soos's 'Applause O' Meter' tilted all the way to 180 degrees. Soos's smile faded and he bowed his head.

"Ladies and gentlemen? We... We have a winner..."

I stood there in shock, not knowing what to do. We lost everything, everything to a sassy girl... Maybe we really were doomed from the start.

"The winner of the party crown, is Pacifica Northwest and her crew, Four Direction..."

Pacifica took the crown and she stared at the crowd, "Thank you to all of my wonderful fans! Everyone, I couldn't have won without your support! Your love, and your affection for me has made me determined to win at any cost! But of course, we all know that it's not JUST the party crown that I've won." -She turned towards our group- "I believe you'll be asked to leave?"

I bowed my head and began walking towards the stairs. I felt my eyes start to water and I wanted to go right into Sweater Town. Not because I lost, but because I failed everyone.

"Any last words Dipper Pines?"

I turned to stare at Dipper and his eyes connected with mine. His mouth was open agape, still shocked from the message of losing. But as soon as he noticed the small trail of tears running down my face, he immediately furrowed his eyebrows.

"Yeah, I have a few last words for you AND the entire party people here."

Dipper snatched the microphone from Pacifica and turned to face the audience. He puffed out his chest and he sucked in a deep breath.

"Listen here you guys. We may have lost the battle, but that doesn't mean we lost the war. Honestly, the moment I heard you guys cheering for us I actually thought we'd win for a second."

I gave Dipper a questionable look but he just gave me a half smile.

"However in the end, we lost. But really, who do you really think deserves the crown?"

The crowd started to murmur and Pacifica started to panic, "That's enough out of you Dipper Pines!"

Dipper just shoved her away, "Further more, you've all seen how Pacifica has treated not only me but my sister Mabel! She uses violence, hurtful language, and fury to control you guys. Open your eyes people! There are so many of you but there's only one Pacifica Northwest! Why does she have to take control of you guys!?"

The crowd began muttering even more.

"Do you want this tyrant to take over your lives!?"

"NO!" The crowd chanted.

"Do you want to give into peer pressure!?"

"NO!" The crowd shouted again.

"Do you want ACTUAL freedom for all!?"

"YEAH!"

"Then lets hear it once more for the Pine Trees!"

The crowd shouted and cheered in loud voices shaking the entire Shack once more. The vibration began to shake even our own feet and I watched as the crown on Pacifica's head fall down on the floor. She covered her ears with both of her hands and shouted at Gideon for something. Gideon looked a little nervous but that nervousness turned into fear as Pacifica shoved him away. She raised two fingers and she looked angry... Gideon nodded to every word that she said, and he just solemnly walked away. Blending in with the crowd.

Soos picked up the crown on the floor and raised it up high, "And the new winners are, the Pine Trees!"

Soos came over with the crown and gave it to Dipper, "So dude, what are you going to do with that crown?"

Dipper examined the crown, "I know what exactly what I'm going to do with it!"

I looked up to see Dipper walking towards me with the crown extended with his arms. My heart began to race with every step he took. He stopped in front of me, and anointed the crown on my head.

"I believe you deserve this one sis..."

"Thanks Dipper... You're the best!"

"Awkward sibling hug?" Dipper offered.

I giggled, "Awkward sibling hug."

We both gave each other a warm embrace and I felt a joyful tear swell up in my eye. This rewarded us a set of applause from the audience and a few cheers. We both ended our hug with the usual 'pat, pat' and as we broke, I looked deep into his eyes.

For a moment, I swear I saw his eyes shine and sparkle even brighter than before. I brushed a hand over his scarred cheek and I began to stutter.

"D-Dipper?"

"What is it sis?"

I began to fiddle with my fingers, "You know how m-mom used to give us kisses on our boo-boos whenever we g-got hurt?"

"Yeah I do, why do you-"

I gave him a quick smooch on the cheek and he recoiled a little bit but for the most part, he stood firm. The quick kiss however, made my heart explode with joy. I spun around in circles and when I looked at Dipper, he just gave me a small smile.

"Group tackle!"

I didn't have time to turn around in time to see Grenda and Candy charging at us. We ended up in a group hug with Grenda towering over us like a guardian. It was probably one of the best friend hugs I've ever had!

We all let go of the embrace and Grenda clapped her hands together, "You did it you guys! You did it!"

"Yes, Grenda is correct! You are the super party girl!" Candy remarked.

"Aww you guys! You know I couldn't have done it without an amazing team! And Grenda, Candy, you both have some amazing dance moves!"

"We think so too!" They both said in unison.

I felt a strong sense of hostility behind me and I turned around to see a fuming Pacifica Northwest staring me down, "This isn't over yet Mabel Pines... Mark my words, I will get you back someday! And when that happens, you'll seriously regret crossing swords with me."

I raised a hand and I flipped my hair, "Talk to the hand girl, talk to the hand!"

Pacifica let out a defeated grunt and she stormed out of the Shack with her acquaintances following close by.

My face lit up like the fourth of July and I turned to Dipper, "You know what this calls for?"

"Yeah I do!" Dipper chuckled.

Wendy yelled at us, "I'm way ahead of you guys! This track's called "On The Break" by: Mrmilkcarton! And again, enough talken and get dancen!"

Wendy clicked the play button and the entire room was once again filled with some nice soothing techno. The crowd waved their hands in the air and cheered, getting with the mood of the song. I slowly swayed my hips back and forth with the music and pretty soon, everyone began to do the same. I turned around to face Dipper and my new best friends. They gave me high-fives and together, we headed down towards the dance floor where everyone was waiting for us. We were given pats on the backs and small words of thanks. I couldn't help but smile at what we've done. We did something good, something better for the community, something better for this mysterious place called Gravity Falls, Oregon.

The flashing lights began to intensify as the song started to pick up pace. I couldn't help but tap my feet on the floor and begin to slowly boogie down. But just when I was getting into the mood of things, Dipper called out to me.

"Hey Mabel?" Dipper began.

I turned to face Dipper, "Yeah?"

"Well about what Pacifica said... Do you really think she'll come back to do something, I don't know, bad?"

I placed a hand on his shoulder and I gave him a reassuring smile, "Of course not, she lost against us and we taught her a tough lesson! She's not coming back anytime soon."

Dipper's joyous smile returned to his face and he grinned, "Yeah I guess you're right."

The song began to intensify even more as it was about to reach its climax. Dipper tapped his feet to the beat of song and he looked at Grenda and Candy who were already partying pretty hard. He looked at me and he outstretched a hand.

"Hey Mabel, I know this is kind of awkward and we're twins but- as your brother, will you give me the pleasure of having this dance?"

My face lit up and I couldn't help but grin from ear to ear. He's asking me to a dance, just how can I say no to a guy like this?

I took his hand and I grinned, "Sure thing... Anything for you bro."

A/N: Oh sweet Jesus I can finally breath! Honestly this was an amazing hassle to write but I absolutely loved making this chapter! Okay, now I need to tell you guys some stuff.

Firstly, the chapters of "Party Time" were only going to be three chapters. But due to the fact that "Party Time Pt. 3" was already big, I decided to cut the parts in half. What I didn't expect was for this chapter to be really long... I wanted to write more and add some additional stuff and games in, but I know I'm already late with the content. Also I think you can get why this chapter was sorta late...

Secondly, if any of you are wondering yes this will be on going. I honestly like writing this and a lot of you guys like it, it gives me the motivation to continue! (Thanks for the support guys!)

Thirdly, I was super worried about adding songs to this chapter. Like legit, I debated with this idea for about an entire week! I never did something like this before and there were so many risks to take (or at least in my mind), but I took the jump anyway. Hopefully you guys enjoyed it!

Lastly, I'm thinking of doing a Q&A session just for fun and if you have any questions like 'What's your writing process' or 'How long does it take you to write', or even 'What's your favorite color'. Just PM me your questions and I'll be more than happy to add your questions to the Q&A! (If you guys don't have any questions you don't need to do it.)

Guess that's it for now, next update will be around next week!
(School might mess up the deadline, be warned!)
