As Dipper talked to their possessed friends Faye was focused on a whole different thing. As Dipper stepped forward Faye had seen a flash of movement. She looked down at his hands which made various signs that wouldn't have made sense to anyone else watching, except Faye.

You see, a while back Dipper had tried to teach Faye and Mabel sign language, Faye had caught up quickly but Mabel only learned how to sign her name and a few other words.

Luckily Faye had a good memory and easily made out what Dipper was trying to say: Get the book, flip to the page about ghosts. Get ready to read out the incantations when I say or sign 'now'.

Faye quickly grabbed the book and started to quietly flip to the page about ghosts. Luckily Dipper had distracted October and she…or they, didn't notice. Finally Faye flipped to the page about ghosts and started to read over the incantation.

Meanwhile Mabel growled at Dipper, she clenched her fists and suddenly everyone was back in the Mystery Shack. The room turned upside down and Dipper and Faye found themselves hurtling towards the ceiling.

They crashed against it and let out groans. Dipper rubbed his head where he felt a bump forming. Mabel, Lillian, and Jack had stayed on the ground though they now appeared on the ceiling, Mabel smiled.

"Could your sister do that?" she asked. Dipper only managed let out a small whimper.

"Don't suppose I could get out of this with a silly dance?" he squeaked. Mabel seemed to think about it then shook her head and waved her hand. Various kinds of merchandise rose of the ceiling and swirled around, they hit Dipper not caring about Faye who had dove behind the remains of what once was a cabinet filled with Stan bobble heads.

She gasped for breath and rubbed her arm which had a huge bruise on it. She felt her heart lurch as she heard Dipper cry out in pain. Secretly she had liked the boy for a while just never had the guts to say it, but she quickly pushed aside her feelings, now was no time to think about her love life, Dipper was in trouble.

But how would she help him? If she ran out there Mabel or someone else would see her book and take it and then they would be completely and totally screwed. But they had been in those situations before and yet they were still there.

But on the other hand this was obviously not one of those kind of situations…well great now she was confused.

Dipper raised his arms trying to protect his face from the onslaught of stuff being shot at him. Mabel cackled and just continued. Lillian and Jack watched both smirking evilly.

Dipper wanted to yell for Faye, maybe say the magic word, 'now', but he knew that right now wasn't the right time. But this wasn't what he had planned would happen, Dipper had expected October to go out of Mabel, Jack, and Lillian to show that she could easily do without them.

Now he chided himself for forgetting that ghosts could just use the hosts and their powers. He had fought ghosts before! He was supposed to know what he was doing!

He tried to run for cover, he fell down and his fingers brushed something smooth and cold. Dipper looked up and he found a very familiar jar of something that was very dangerous to one of the employees in the Mystery Shack.

He grabbed it, well, hopefully this would only just hurt a lot.


Mabel pressed her hands against her temples and focused, her face became red with strain, or was it because she was holding her breath? Wait, could you do that inside the mind? Was that a thing?

She didn't care and just focused harder, she squeezed Jack's hand who squeezed back reassuringly. Mabel was glad he was here…no wait, no she wasn't! Yes she was! UGH! Well, at least she wasn't alone.

And Jack helped her focus on the things she was fighting for. Mabel wondered what was helping Lillian focus, she peeked under one half opened eye lid to see her friend with the most serious face she had eve seen on her face.

Mabel wondered how she was doing this, and how Mabel was having trouble, it should have been easy for Mabel since her brother was at the mercy of her and his other friends and her lover was urging her forward.

But it wasn't and it was for Lillian…hmm…


Dipper let out a loud scream, "ENOUGH!" Mabel just gave him a unimpressed look.

"What are you gonna do though guy?" she taunted. Dipper held up a small glass jar, his friends just stared at him.

"Water?" Lillian asked smirking.

"No," Dipper said deathly calm. "Holy water."


Mabel continued to focus, her mind fighting to gain control. Suddenly she heard two people scream, she opened her eyes and Jack and Lillian screamed in pain clutching their sides. "AHHHHHHH WHAT IS HAPPENING?!" Lillian screamed.

Jack had let go of Mabel's hand and he just barely managed to open his eyes which were clouded with pain, "I DON'T KNOW! BUT IT HURTS!" he cried. Lillian gasped for breath but winced every time she did as if it hurt.

"YOU'RE TELLING ME!"

Mabel cried out and dropped to her knees, she didn't have any idea what was happening but she was sure Dipper and Faye had found something to fight back with. And for some reason it was only hurting Lillian and Jack.

Her two friends' form flickered for a second and Mabel gasped, she was right! "GUYS! TRY FIGHTING!" she screamed above her friends moans and screams.

"WHAT HOW?!" Lillian demanded.

"I DON'T KNOW IF YOU NOTICED BUT WE'RE IN HORRIBLE BURNING PAIN HERE!" Jack moaned. Mabel sighed.

"JUST TRY! OCTOBER IS LOSING HER GRIP ON YOU!" she ordered.

"BUT THE PAIN!" both friends cried.

"JUST DO IT!" Mabel ordered in a voice so commanding both Lillian and Jack shrank back.

"OK OK WE'LL DO IT!"


Dipper stood over the bodies of Lillian and Jack. Faye held back Mabel, she had finally ran out when she realized that she could do this without losing the book. Dipper held onto the jar of holy water. He knew his friends were probably in real pain right now but this was the only way he could have won the fight.

He winced as he heard both Lillian and Jack cry out in absolute torture but picked up the book. Faye held Mabel back who struggled and called them names.

He read over the page, "Ok Faye keep her there. We're about to free our friends."
