Well, thanks to everyone who reviews. I really appreciate it when you do. I hope that you enjoy this next chapter. The chapter where Ronald makes his awaited return. Enjoy!:
Sixteen
It was a really long ride to Earth. Luckily, one of the iPads had games installed.
So Dipper had deactivated body controls and spent the next two and a half hours chatting with his friends back at NWMS through face-time, and playing games like Angry Birds, Jetpack Joyride, What's the Word, Ruzzle, Temple Run, Where's My Water, and Minecraft.
Dipper had just finished his best game of Temple Run when he noticed that the Earth seemed very large and close.
"Siri, how much longer until we reach our destination?" asked Dipper.
"Approximately two minutes, twenty seven seconds, and thirteen milliseconds," Siri replied.
"Wow, very accurate," said Dipper. "Okay, reactivate body controls and deactivate auto pilot."
"Done," Siri said.
Dipper stuck his hands out in front of him and willed the robot's legs to stretch out behind him. He flew downwards toward their destination, accelerated by the Earth's gravitational pull.
Dipper looked at the iPad with face-time. "Candy, will the robot suit be able to withstand the Earth's atmosphere?" he asked.
The look on Candy's face said it all. "Sorry! It totally slipped my mind," she apologized.
Dipper sighed and a force field encircled the robot suit after he entered the atmosphere.
After about a minute of flying at a downward angle, Dipper saw the land where Gravity Falls used to be. Currently, it was a large expanse of dirt with a few scattered tents and a construction project near the eastern border of town.
After Dipper landed, he looked around. The only Kids of Eternity in sight were at the construction project. All of them stared at Dipper with fear written all over their faces. Some ran into a nearby tent to hide.
"Where's Ronald?" hollered Dipper.
A few seconds later, a blur appeared in front of Dipper that turned into Ronald.
"Well, you're back," said the Kid of Eternity. "I really wasn't expecting company. Oh, well. Looks like it's time to finish you off."
"Yeah, like that's gonna happen," Dipper said. "I'm here to save Gravity Falls."
Ronald sighed and cracked his knuckles. "Whatever! Let's get this over with."
"Wait!" said Dipper. "There's something that we have to do before we start fighting."
"Really? What?" snapped Ronald.
Dipper stuck out his right arm and a guitar appeared in his hand.
Ronald rolled his eyes. "Are you kidding me?" he said. "We're going to sing? What kind of idiot sings about their life problems?"
"Idiots on Disney Channel," replied Dipper. "Now I don't expect you to sing like you belong on American Idol, but don't suck."
Ronald sighed, snapped his fingers, and a drum set appeared.
"Let's get this over with," he said.

[Drum and guitar intro]
"You started a fight that you just couldn't win,
'cause you were runnin' around thinkin' that I was a sin!
And now you're here-in-a dumb little robot suit.
Versus-the things- you know I can do at you"
"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?
YOU TORE THIS TOWN APART"
"Well, where did you think you could go?
'Cause everyone already knows
that it's fifty to none,
so you better run"
"You got the town on its knees!
You're doing all that you please!
You want more?"
"(I want more!)"
"But you'll get nothing from me!
You love the burden I bear!
You love the hate that we share!
You want more?"
"(I want more!)"
"But you'll get nothing from me
'Cause we're enemies!"
"Enemies!
You started something that you just couldn't stop!
You turned the kids in this town
into the angriest mob!
And my one- last-wish is that you pay for it!
'Cause there's-no-way you're getting out of this!"
"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?
YOU TORE THIS TOWN APART"
"Well, where did you think you could go?
'Cause everyone already knows
that it's fifty to none,
so you better run"
"You got the town on its knees!
You're doing all that you please!
You want more?"
"(I want more!)"
"But you'll get nothing from me!

You love the hate that we share!
You want more?"

"But you'll get nothing from me
'Cause we're enemies!"
"Enemies!
"Enemies!"

"Enemies!"
"Enemies!"
The song ended and Ronald made his drums disappear. "That wasn't half as bad as I thought that it was gonna be," he said.
"Yeah," said Dipper as his guitar disappeared. "We should do this again sometime."
"Yep, we should," agreed Ronald. "WHEN YOU'RE DEAD!" Two balls of energy appeared in his hands and he threw them at Dipper.
So, the fight's about to begin. Anyway, what do you think? Please review, because it helps me as a writer. Plus, more reviews get me to upload the chapters faster since I know that you like the story.
