Too busy. Sorry. My homework forced me to not to write this story.


CHUG THOUGHT that there was nothing happened.

It still looked like Dusty's house, even he had verified every room. But James was still unruly—he insisted to checked Dusty's house. He totally did not understand about what James mean. Perhaps he want to search something pleasure, he though. Had 2 hours everyone checked the strange of Dusty's house, and anybody had given up: Mayday, Mater, Dipper, Rusty, and Chug. They stood up in outside Dusty's house. Meanwhile, James, Dashner, and Blade checked the bathroom. Raoul and Tony were in Honkers, still wanted to take a rest.

"Hey, there's a little note here!"

The shout of Blade made Chug, Mayday, and Mater drove in to the bathroom.

"What note?" Chug asked.

"It has been typewritten," Blade said.

"How can that be?"

"Let me check it out."

James took it from Blade, looking at the little note, read that. "Dear Dusty, you'll be mine. Prepare yourself. V."

"What the note mean?"

"This is the clue."

Blade—who felt incompetent about that—said, "So . . . that is the clue? How easy! I mean, come on—it's kinda suck thing that the clues was just like an attention. Dusty maybe can runaway and protect himself."

"But what if he ignore this?"

"Ignore?"

"This is too easy as an attention. But, every simple attention will be ignored. Like the sample, throw the rubbish to the trash can. Mayhaps you'll ignore that. But, what if the attention has written with a menace?"

Blade mused, thinking about that it was true.

"But mayhaps it will be ignored, too without someone who write this."

"Then . . . what the problem of this clue?"

"When the clue had been here?—it's the problem."

"Yeah, whatever. I'll going to Fill 'N Fly." Chug left. "I want to meet Dottie. Maybe she have waken up. If yes, I'll chear her up."

"See ya. Oh, wait. Ask her about the gift."

"What gift?"

"Just tell that the ask by me."

Chug then drove in to Fill 'N Fly. He didn't want to know more about the clue or something like that—he just wanted to meet Dusty and looked at his face. Yeah—Chug was like Dottie, but Chug was stronger than Dottie. He's a man. He had not to shown his hutred, while it was very . . . hurt. (Well, it was just for this time.)

Coming in to inside Fill 'N Fly, he saw Dottie who was repairing Dusty.

"Hey, Dottie. Have waken up? How's your feel?"

"Fine. What?"

"Though you've felt sad, Dottie."

"Hey, Chug."

"Hey, Dusty."

"Was yes. But now, I feel happy because he is here."

"Great then. Hey, Mayday ask about the gift."

"It has been given to Dusty."

"Tell him that it's a nice gift."

"Okay."

.

"Bored?"

"Nope. Uh, perhaps a little."

Rusty looked at the sunrise that brighten up, melting the snow slowly.

"Bored?"

"Maybe 50%."

"It's kinda bored thing that we just stand here to look at the big star that brighten up from morning to evening—sun."

"Yeah. I hope that there will be stars."

"It has, Ms. Dipper. But it cannot looked for this time—the sun has brighten the sky, making a blue spectrum to hide the stars."

"Really?"

"Of course."

Rusty looked at Chug who came with happy face.

"What's happened, Mr. Chug?"

"She's waken up. I must give some answer to Mayday's ask. Bye."

"Bye."

There was silence for a moment.

"Bored?"

"Yes."

"Shall we go to Fill N' Fly?"

"I'll go with you, Sweetie."

They drove in to Fill N' Fly. And . . . . They shocked to see Dusty had been there.

"Mr. Dusty!"

"Dusty!"

"Rusty? Dipper? What are you doing here?"

"We—and the other, of cause—looking for you!"

"It was hard to find me because—"

"You're not here. And you'd been kidnapped. Right?"

"Yeah."

"We felt so worried about you!"

"I know. I felt that, too."

"But glad you're here for now. How can you get outta there?"

"I was . . . die. But now, I'm alive and, abruptly, I was in Dottie's friends house."

"How could you die? And how could you be alive again?"

"Um . . . you know Reincarnation is?"

.

.

.

Mayday felt confused.

Maybe his mind felt tired to digest Chug's answer: "She'd just given it to Dusty."

"Huh?"

"And Dusty said that your gift is nice."

"You don't say?"

James—who inadvertent heard their conference—drove in to near Mayday and Chug. "Sorry—what did you say, Chug?"

"I said, 'She'd just given it to Dusty. And Dusty said that your gift is nice.'"

"Did you tell the truth?—I don't wanna hear a joke for now."

"I'm serious—I don't tell any joke this time."

"Where's. Dusty. Now."

"He's in Fill 'N Fly—oh my God! Dusty!"

"What?"

"He's there! How could I forget that!?"

"EVERYBODY! GO TO FILL 'N FLY, NOW!"[]
