Chapter 2: The Rescue

Dirt landed on the twins shoes as they continued to run through the woods, away from the giant muscle-man. It was hard to believe that earlier today, everyone was enjoying their summer; and now, people were in hiding, trying not to get caught by one of Gideon's body guards. They were twice the size of the townspeople, and very dangerous.

How did Kill-Bone and Kostas get thrown in the slammer? Well, it all started at "Skull Fracture" in downtown Gravity Falls. Kostas entered in the crazy intense biker joint and saw many brawls happening with multiple people, and items breaking every ten seconds. Kostas approached the bar and asked for a cold beverage. The drink attender went in the back to fetch his drink for him. While Kostas was waiting, he felt a huge hand grab his whole body, and the next thing that he knew, he was getting thrown by Kill-bone and crashing into the weakling. When the numbness of Kostas' body diminished, he stood up and looked at the muscle-man that threw him down. He asked him why he did that, and the Kill-bone replied saying that the man he was beating up tried to escape so he grabbed him to stop the weakling.

Kostas gets up and slaps him in the face. A new fight breaks out between him and Kill-Bone. Much blood is seen on both the fighters. The authorities then arrive to break up the fight and take them to jail.

In the ride to the slammer, the two of them were still arguing. Hard to believe that when they arrived, the cops put them in the same cell. At first, they were going to kill one another, but then things diminished when another member that was in their cell worked his little physic powers.

And the most ironic thing about all of this, is that Kill-Bone and Kostas got thrown in jail the day before the Gideon incident, and they helped Gideon escape.

Running

The twins have been running for what seemed like an eternity. Kostas was right behind Dipper and Mabel, and he wasn't going to stop for any reason. Mabel was having somewhat a difficult time catching up, so her brother grabbed her hand so she could stay at the same pace. Dipper turned his head around so he could see how fast Gideon's body guard was coming. However, as he looked back, Kostas stopped to take a breather. As for the twins, they didn't stop until they saw a cave up ahead to hide in.

The twins ran into the dark, ominous, cave where light feared to shine through one shade of black. They hid behind a huge rock and tried to catch their breath. However, they were more scared than tired since they didn't want to get caught by Gideon's body guard. They grew quiet when footsteps were heard right outsider the cave, and kept on going. The twins let out a huge sigh of relief, knowing that the giant muscle-man didn't catch them. However, they weren't out of the woods yet; for all they knew, Kostas could be right outside of the cave, and when they would least expect it, the twins could be captured.

Several minutes passed by and nothing happened. Every now and then, you could hear an ear piercing scream come from a townsfolk getting caught in Gravity Falls. Every time, it gave Dipper the chills because the same thing could happen to his own twin. He was determined to protect her no matter what.

Location: Gravity Falls, Oregon

The men in Helicopter one have arrived in the now remote town of Gravity Falls. The men piled down from a safety rope ladder and went out to investigate. Murphy however, went and stood guard towards the former Mystery Shack. His walkie talkie than went off and he went to answer it. When the voice was clear as day, it was Henry.

Henry: What's it look like down their Murphy?

Murphy: Pretty bad sir. A wired fence has been added placed around the perimeter of the Mystery Shack, and about thirty people from this town have been captured.

Henry: This Gideon kid sure seems like a handful. You need to wait until I get the twins out of Gravity Falls and then you can make a move.

Murphy: What should we do in the interim sir?

Henry: Contact the authorities and hunt down Kill-bone Cunningham.

Murphy: Will do sir. Over and out.

The walkie talkie message ended and Murphy delivered the leader's message to the rest of the agents. Henry on the other hand, remained in the helicopter until he was over the entrance of the woods. The safely ladder dropped down to the bottom of the dirt path and Henry climbed down. He than rushed through the woods in search for the twins. He wasn't gonna stop until he found them, and take them out of Gravity Falls.

After five minutes of searching, he found footprints marked in the dirt. He figured that they were the twins and so he followed them until they led to a cave. Henry could hear someone sniffling and another person trying to calm down the other. Henry cleared his throat and called out the twins names. At first, there was no reply; but then a male's puberty voice responded.

Dipper: Are you one of Gideon's body guards who's after us?

Henry: No. I don't work for Gideon. Please come out of the cave.

The twins didn't move a muscle. This person that they don't even know, is trying to force them out of the hiding spot. For all they knew, he could be lying to them just so they could be taken to Gideon.

Dipper: How do you know who we are?

Henry: I know because I'm a specialized agent from the Twin Protection Program. I'm here to take you kids away from this Gideon kid, before you two get caught. I don't work for him.

Dipper still wasn't believing this guy. He could just be fibbing. He wasn't going to put his sister and himself in any other danger.

Dipper: Let's see some identification before we come out.

Henry rolled his eyes and took off his gold identification pin from his suit and through it inside the cave. He saw a hand reach out for it. A few minutes passed by and footsteps could be heard coming from inside the cave and towards Henry. Coming out of the darkness were the Pines twins. Mabel hid behind her brother and her hands were on his shoulders. Both of them were scared, but Dipper had to put on a brave face for his sister. Her brother asked a few more questions and did the talking.

Dipper: You're an agent?

Henry: Yes. For over ten years.

Dipper: What's the Twin Protection Program?

Henry: It's a program that involves twins, like yourselves, and we go out and rescue them while the remaining others try to put an and to the bad person, in this case, Gideon.

Dipper: So you're saying that you're here to rescue me and Mabel so that Gideon or Gideon's body guards don't catch us?

Henry: That's correct.

Dipper: Where will we go if we go with you?

Before Henry got a chance to answer, the giant muscle-man that was chasing the twins from earlier, jumped in the middle between Henry and the kids. Mabel got scared and clutched onto her brother for dear life. He did the same thing.

Kostas: You're not taking the kids anywhere...Uh...

Kostas was having a hard time because he couldn't see what the gold identification pin said on his suit. Henry didn't have time for this nonsense; he had to get the kids out of here now before Kostas had a chance to grab them. To speed up time, he told Kostas his last name so things could continue.

Kostas: Simmons...you're not taking the kids anywhere. They're coming with me.

He then turned to the direction of the two kids and started to approach them with his hands out getting ready to grab them. Dipper and Mabel backed away, not wanting to get taken to Gideon. However, they stopped backing away when Henry did a side kick to Kostas' neck. The twins heard his neck crack and they cringed.

Kostas turned to Henry and he threw him a punch to the face. A brawl was happening right in front of the twins. Dipper took Mabel by the hand and they went back into the cave, hiding behind the huge rock from earlier.

Henry and Kostas continued to fight one another. Blood was seen on each of the fighters faces. Not as much was shown on Henry. It was amazing to see that Kostas was still fighting with a broken neck. However, things ended shortly after Henry hit the clavicle bone causing Kostas to go into unconsciousness. Henry then entered into the cave and approached the twins.

Dipper and Mabel thought that it was Kostas who was approaching them. But when they saw that it was Henry, they let out a sigh of relief.

Henry: You're not safe in Gravity Falls right now kids. If Kostas was one of the body guards after you, then I'm certain that there are others in search for you two.

Dipper: Where will we go with you?

Henry: Since I will be the one looking after you two, I decided to take you to my home in California. Gideon will never know where you guys are. Therefore, once this madness with him is over, you two can return to Gravity Falls.

Dipper and Mabel were hesitant about all this. On one hand, Henry was right. There could be other people looking for them. On the other hand, they were still unsure if they could trust this guy. They don't even know him, yet he wants to take them out of Gravity Falls and back to California for a while.

Dipper: It's Henry Simmons...right?

Henry: Yes.

Dipper: Can you give me and my sister a few minutes to discuss this before we make a decision?

Henry: Two minutes. That's all you get. I'll be waiting right out front of the cave.

With that, Henry walked out of the cave and stood out in front of it and waited for the twins. Dipper and Mabel began to talk about this situation.

Mabel: Dipper, I'm not sure if we should go with him. For all we know, he could be lying to us and working for Gideon.

Dipper: I know. That's one of the things that I'm not sure about. I mean, his identification pin could be false for all we know.

Mabel: And an organization called the Twin Protection Program? I've never heard of it.

Dipper: Exactly...but then again, he does have a point. There could possibly be more people out there, searching for us, and take us back to Gideon.

Mabel: You got a point there. Well, it's your call bro-bro. We either go with Henry or stay here in hiding.

Dipper thought about all of the scenarios that could happen if they remained in Gravity Falls. He then thought of all of the scenarios that could happen if they remained with Henry. After thinking, he made up his mind.

Henry stood from the cave, counting down from two minutes that he gave the kids. Footsteps could be heard, coming from inside the cave, and towards Henry. He put his hands behind his back and looked down at the twins.

Henry: Have you made your decision Dipper?

Dipper: Yes sir.

Henry: And that would be?

Dipper: We're trusting you Henry. We'll go with you.

Henry: Alright then.

Henry then grabbed out his walkie talkie and called to the helicopter to come to his location. When he got the reply, he then made a walkie talkie call to Murphy and the others, informing that he found the twins and that where he's taking them. He also said to radio an ambulance for Kostas Klinger. When he got the reply, he put his walkie talkie away.

Several minutes passed and the helicopter finally arrived. The safety ladder was dropped down to the ground. Henry told the kids to climb up, and they did. Mabel was first with Dipper following behind, and then Henry. Once they were fully secured with seat belts and the headphones with mic's on them, they then departed from Gravity Falls Oregon, to California.

There you go!

Chapter 2 is now complete!

Once again, I'm sorry for the late update.

Chapter 3 could most likely be up during my holiday break.

Think around sometime next Saturday or Sunday

And btw, Chapter 3 will introduce my OC: Gwen.

You got to know a little bit about her back in Chapter 1, but she will finally be introduced in the next chapter.

Hope you enjoyed and sorry about the little wait.

No mean comments please!
