Part 2: The Consequences
Mabel looks up at where the Mystery Shack once stood. A massive sign looms overhead. "Gideonland". Mabel is left in shock, Gideon has won. Nearby she spots a huge mansion looming adjacent to the amusement park. She can't even recognize the place. Everything is just gone. As Mabel tries to figure out what's going on, a siren rings. On the PA system Gideon can be heard. "Attention Mabel Pines has ESCAPED, I repeat MABEL PINES HAS ESCAPED". Mabel can't believe what's going on. As she is here, the Mabel of that moment is non-existent as to prevent time ruptures, the time tape was developed to stop that moments user from co existing along side their time travelling self. Thanks to that, it looks as thought she has escaped. Mabel spots several of Gideon's guards approaching. She leaps behind a bush just in time as the guards don't spot her. Mabel is left wondering, how could this have happened, was it her fault, how did Gideon win, and where is her family? She then remembers to when Gideon won in her timeline, after loosing the shack, they all went to Soos's house. She decides to go there.
Running through the streets while she was wanted was difficult. Mabel hid behind whatever she could find, hope no one saw her and made sure to watch for Gideon's guards. Finally, she arrives at Soos's house. She quickly crosses the street before any of the guards can spot her. She arrives at the door and knocks. Slowly the door creeks open. Soos peaks out to see Mabel. Mabel tells Soos it is her and to let her in. Soos however does not believe its Mabel. He asks Mabel to say something to him that only the real Mabel would know. Mabel thinks and then tells Soos he keeps emergency salami in his wallet. Soos is shocked as no one knew that. He realizes it is Mabel and quickly lets her in before any of the guards can see her. However, Soos is still puzzled. He never told Mabel that nor did Mabel ever see his wallet (before Blendins game btw), so how did she know that? And how did she escape Gideon's mansion , the most guarded building in town?
Mabel looks around while Soos puts about a dozen locks on the door. He tells Mabel who is puzzled its precautions as you can't trust anyone out there now, they even ask for ID when going a block to get groceries. Just then someone from the Living rooms yells at Soos asking who is it. Mabel recognizes the voice instantly. STAN. Soo then tells Stan that they have a guest over just as Mabel walks into the room. Stan is overjoyed and on the brink of tears as he runs over to give Mabel a hug. He tells Mabel he thought he lost her to Gideon back at the start of summer when Gideon took over. At that moment Stan notices the journal in Mabel's bag. His eyes grow wide open. He asks Mabel what that book is doing in her bag. As Mabel pulls it out, some of Dipper's chewed up pens come falling out. Stan gets more suspicious. Then he notices Mabel's sweater, the birthday party one. He has a flashback at that moment to earlier on in the summer. He is walking in as Mabel finishes working on that very sweater. She shows it to him and asks what he thinks. Stan tells her its beautiful and asks what she made it for. Mabel replies she made the sweater to wear on her birthday, and ONLY her Birthday. Only her birthday. "Only her birthday", Stan keeps repeating the sentence over and over. Mabel asks Stan what's going on. He looks up to Mabel and says, "you're not this timelines Mabel". Mabel realizes that Stan does know about time travel. She nods her head. Stan starts to tear up and hugs Mabel again, its not her Mabel, but after so long without her, he cannot bear to let her go.
After about a few hours Mabel, Stan and Soos are chatting and having a fun time reminiscing and talking about what's changed. Soos jokes about how Gideon has gotten more mental since taking over, Stan tells Mabel about how he once sent some of Gideon's guards on a wild goose chase through town when he threw a rock straight through a bus stop with Gideon's face on it. Mabel then tells them about how she and Dipper defeated Gideon in her timeline. Stan and Soos suddenly loose the smiles on their faces. Mabel then asks them where Dipper is. She starts to look around the house to see if Dipper is there. She looks in the bedrooms to see if he is sleeping, the kitchen, bathroom, etc. She cannot find him anywhere. After looking through the house, Mabel walks back into the living room where Stan and Soos are watching. She asks the two of them where Dipper is? Stan and Soos look to each other and appear to be on the brink of tears. They huddle and whisper to each other. They know while this is not their Mabel, she deserves to know the truth as much as their Mabel deserved to know.
Stan sighs and sits himself and Mabel down. Soos runs off into the other room as he can't bear to hear the story anymore. Stan then explains. When Gideon won, he decided the best thing to do was to send Dipper and Mabel home. Soos told Stan the rest of the story as he witnessed it from the cliff after the bus crashed. He saw Dipper and Mabel get snatched up by the Gideonbot. Gideon asks them where journal # 1 is. Both of them have no clue what journal 1 is or why Gideon is after it. Gideon then throws Dipper off onto the cliff saying if he can't have the journal, he might as well take Mabel from Dipper. Mabel is screaming for help. Soos then told Stan that he saw Dipper tear up in what appeared to be deep thought After some pondering Dipper turned around and walked into the woods. Stan tells Mabel that he and Soos tried to find him and tried to save her, but they were helpless to stop Gideon. She was forcefully married to him, and after weeks of searching, none of them could find Dipper. They got leads from truck stops up road but after a while, they stopped, as if Dipper had simply vanished. Mabel is left in shock, and starts to cry. Thanks to her, Dipper was gone, she was married to Gideon and the mystery shack was destroyed. She asks Stan if there is any way they can fix this, but Stan shakes his head, saying they can't just turn back time. Mabel then realizes, she still has the time tape. She tells grunkle Stan she is going to go back and fix everything and stop Gideon from winning. She starts to pull the time tape. Before that she gives Stan and Soos one last hug and promises everything will go back to normal. She presses the button and heads back in time.
Mabel reappears back on June 1st 2012, an hour before Dipper is to find the journal. She plans to leave the journal in the compartment rather then steal it. She decides, what ever will happen in the future, shell figure it out. She starts to run to the compartment. Just then, someone grabs her hand. She looks up and behind her to see two Time Paradox Avoidance Enforcement Squadron (TPAES) officers. They analyze Mabel's face and come up with a match. They explain that Mabel is wanted for, robbery of time officers time tape, Changing the course of time, and altering with history, two of the biggest and worst time crimes that can be committed. They handcuff Mabel and grab the tape out of her hand. Mabel tries to reason with them explaining she was trying to fix the timeline. They don't listen to her and tell her to leave the talking for Time Baby. One officer hits a button on his wrist and the next thing they know, they are in the year 207̃012, and Mabel is thrown into a time cell, in maximum security, time prison.
