...

Dinner was long over, everyone was ready for bed. Bud's snore echoed through the halls. Soft music from the television can be heard from the living room where Robbie and Melody will sleep for the night. Robbie on the couch and Melody on the floor, using an extra mattress.

Gideon and Pacifica-already on their night clothes- was in the male cousin's room. They were ready to continue the story.

The female twin reveled in the fear the boy in front of her gave out. She finds it odd that this cowardly boy is here in this dark forest, but she's not in the position to say so, seeing as she isn't someone you would expect here either.

"I-I could a-ask yo-u the sa-same, Pines..." Gideon stuttered, his voice barely heard.

Mabel's cold, amused laughter echoed, which was followed by the squawks of ravens in another side of the woods.

"We just didn't think a coward like you would be found in a place like this, Gleeful." The older male's eyes stares at him, and he never felt his soul so exposed. The glint of turquoise in their eyes didn't help, it made him quiver.

Steeling his nerves, stopping his stuttering, he looked them in the eye. "Well, a merchandise as yourselves wouldn't be seen here, either. Besides, cowardice is different from fear," he stated, eyes shining with both fear and bravery. He had pass the line where one can say that he exercised caution.

The Pines is both feared and loved by Reverse Falls- they amuse the people and easily eliminate their enemies.

The twins were stunned to silence. Then the female of the twins let out another bark of amused laughter. Her twin stared at her in exasperation, still keeping his expression straight.

"I like you," the female stated nonchalantly, as she draped her arms in the younger boy's shoulders.

"Mabel, you know such attachments is frowned upon by the family," Dipper turned his back from the other two, inclining his head a little to look at them, he added, "a commoner such as himself is unworthy of us in such a highlight such as marriage."

The word sent a jolt of fear in the albino's spine, he was about to deny Dipper's words when Mabel beat him to it.

"Oh. That wouldn't be a problem, brother. Our Grand-uncle Stan wouldn't dare disappoint his beloved niece. No matter what he can do."

It seemed like the words of Mabel Pines sends one trembling more than her brother. No- the brother isn't less frightening than the sister, the sister is unhinged in her words more so than Dipper. She isn't afraid to leak informations, she has ways to shut someone up. Problem is- she ain't afraid to do so.

Out of reflex- Gideon moved out of Mabel's arms. The same way he would evade the monsters from the journal. He can feel it. They're as dangerous as all the creatures in the book- and worst is that they have the brains to make that danger more applicable.

The twins caught on Gideon's emotions, he had his guard higher than earlier.

The twins eyes glowed. The albino's instincts was amazing- that, they have to admit- to bad he doesn't have the means to counter their abilities.

And that was all the proof they needed to know he had what they needed.

The same way it had proven Gideon that the ones before him is more powerful than any of the monsters he had recently encountered.

"Hahaha! You know these woods! You have access to it's secrets! Give me the journal!" Gideon couldn't help but take a step back.

How did these twins, who are locked away in their precious tent, know about the secrets of the journal.

Upon the realization that there is more to the twins than it seems, that they may truly be as paranormal as they advertise, Gideon's eyes widen much larger, and he clutch at his chest. For both the safety of the journal and his heart.

The maniac look that Mabel had adapted is far more horrifying than the deadly look his brother had depicted. They would stop at nothing to get the journal.

Taking another step back, he assessed his situation with his wide eyes. The move he took had the twins more alert, he was too near the two to easily escape- good thing he knows the woods more than they do, and they're not dressed to be able to stop him.

Without another thought- the youngest of the three ran. The two who was assessing the situation as well- in the agitation and excitement- didn't thought of using their abilities to stop the white-haired boy, followed.

Gideon easily navigated through the trees. The twins' grace seems to have left them as they maniacally ran after the youngest occupant of the forest.

"Get back here, boy! We just want the journal and nothing else!" Dipper shouted as he jumped over a giant tree root.

"Besides, we will give you credit for the destruction we'll bring the world." Mabel added, her maniacal laugh echoing loudly, overpowering the deafening crows of the birds.

The three run after each other, all at their top speed.

But, Gideon had to stop, he had nowhere else to run, he had reached the end of the falls.

Looking behind him, the twins weren't that far behind. 'Jumping in cold water 30ft high is better than dealing with twin psychopaths.' Was his last thought before he was airbourne.

The twins stopped as they saw the boy jump. The looked down from the edge of the falls, the boy was swimming to shore.

Looking at each other, Another of the young woman's laugh echoed. "Cowardice really is different from fear, isn't brother?" She said with a psychotic smile plastered in her face.

Her brother's gaze only hardened, and a barely controlled frown marred his lips. "I think it's time we show him who his messing with."

The twins reached for their respective stones, eyes aglow in the color turquoise, the same glow slowly engulfing their body as they leisurely get lifted off the ground.

Gideon's body was submerged in water moments after his jump. Immediately after resurfacing, he swam to dry land.

Checking the most vulnerable material he has in his body, the Journal, he was not suprised that- miraculously- it is not wet nor damaged from his jump nor submergence.

Taking the book from it's secret pocket in his vest, he hurriedly skim for information that may point to what's the twins paranormality.

He was on really thin ice, he has no solid conclusion on what the twins are, and after the Norm-is-actually-a-zombie-but-turn-out-to-be-a-bunch-of-gnomes debacle, he wasn't willing to make a mistake.

This time he crossed out the zombie- they don't have their limbs falling apart. They weren't vampires either- they don't hide from the sun. Fairies can human forms, so does other faes, but they tend to stay far away from 'polluted' humans. Pixies don't have any other forms despite that their attitudes are alike. That means its in something they're enchanted, drank/ate or wearing

The albino was hastily skimming the book for any and all magical things that's identical to anything the twins symptoms are.

Mystic Amulets' Counter

A drawing of two pendants, colored with a light blue pen was below it, besides it was a crystalline of sort, colored with a silver pen. The silver was barely noticeable in the yellowing parchment. The portrait of the crystalline was more detailed than the pendants, the background was that of a falling water, inside a cave. (A/N: Oookay, i know it was Mcgucket's lair in the canonverse, but, in this version while his son does exist, his focus is solely on the Pines family, as their most trusted servant and one of their greatest ally, so he doesn't strive for his son's affection, but his son does)

"This is IT!!" He shouted. Noticing the pendants were actually the amulets mentioned, and the source of the paranormality in the twins. 'This must be the counter! Its behind the falls!'

Barely closing the book, he changed direction. Heading towards the falls he jumped from.

Only to lose his footing and go tumbling down the muddied ground.

Pushing himself, he looked at the book that ended up beneath him, he snatched it and placed it, once again, in his vest.

And it was not a moment later did the twins, with glowing eyes and body, came in front of him. Their floating bodies a couple of inches above the ground. 'They do have the amulet!'

"You should really learn how to not shout when you're trying to be stealthy," one of the voices he dreaded to hear chuckled out. The female twin was the first to descend. Gravel, mud, branches and grass crunched under her weight. The glow of the amulet casting a dark look to match the expression on her face.

Gideon scrambled to stand up, and as he was in a kneeling position, he felt his self being forcefully frozen in place. The same turquoise glow from the twins is surrounding his body. And he can't move no matter what.

"Give us the journal, or suffer the consequences." The male twin, unlike his sister did not land and only floated a few centimetres more higher and moved closer to him. He did not raise his voice either, he simply thrust his left hand towards the younger male and look down at Gideon with a frightening sneer.

Gideon isn't going to deny that his shaking in fear of the two psychotic twins in front of him, but as Dipper finally lands and walk towards him to take the journal he knows he has to do something.

So he did. He did the stupid thing of shouting. For the twins maybe, but help was always near by in such a magical and paranormal forest.

"Help! Anyone! Hel-" the hand that was originally reaching for the book was suddenly covering Gideon's mouth. Just to spite his capturer enough to lose his focus he licked his hand.

"Augh!! Disgusting!" The boy exclaimed as he swiped his saliva covered hand with a silk handkerchief. His face scrunched in disgust, reflected by his sister.

It was enough for distraction for him to take a whistle from his short pocket and blow it.

The twins stopped when they heard multiple bear billows from the same direction. Multiple set of roars and growls was let out like a chain-reaction after the first ones.

The twins and Gideon stiffened as they observed their surroundings. Growls and the sound of breaking branches was echoing in every direction, but nothing had shown themselves.

The sound now echoed numbers of pounding feet. In reflex, Dipper lifted Gideon in, what you could only describe, a force choke hold. Lifting him several millimetres off the ground, yet enabling him from making any resistance in his hold.

The two older teens ignored the younger one to observe the noise that could only have come from a herd of stampeding animals. And they weren't mistaken.

Gideon was already blue and close to passing out when what could be an army, led by the multibear came marching out from every direction.

All their weapons, magical or not, raised to protect them. Dipper dropped Gideon in favour of protecting himself from the onslaught of angry monsters.

The last thing he saw was the angry faces of the multibear as he raised his arms to attack the twins, and the twins amulets creating a shield for them before passing out.

"That's it?" Paz said with great confusion, and continued with great aggression, "what happened next!? That can't be IT! Did they help you or what!?"

Gideon can't help but roll his eyes. 'Drama Queen,' "they did help me, ya' know? Oh right, ya' don't, 'cause your too excited to listen," he respondes sarcastically as he drawls out the i in excited, which only got him an eye roll from his cousin.

"Alright. Alright. They brought me to the multibear's cave, multibear supervised the gnomes he forced on taking care of me. I was out for hours, got grounded too, I only managed to arrive home at like two in the morning. They also gave me this," the albino fish something from the pocket of his pants and showed it to his cousin.

It was a circular metallic charm. It was encrusted with bright red gems, that at first glance looked like rubies, but was glowing. It was also carved with what seemed to be a magical circle. The carvings was symmetrical, as was the placement of the glowing red gems, it was alternating with symbols and gems. The charm was simply beautiful.

"What is it? What's that stone? What is it made of? Who made it?" Pacifica rattled off in her curiosity.

"It's base is made of mythril, the stones, I can't say, they didn't tell me, and they won't tell me, but the ones who made this are the fauns, who with the help of unicorns, mixed the mythril with unicorn hair, it stops any kind of demons and magical materials, meaning, any physical and mental magic or paranormality won't work against me as long as I have this. I also commission the fauns with a bunch of sweets to make you one, I'll be recieving it at Summerween, so you gotta wait 'till then."

"What!?" Pacifica jumped up, sending Gideon tumbling down the bed, "you had them make me one!?" The excitement in her voice was obvious, and it had Gideon thinking that she might be in a sugar rush.

"Yeah, you'll have it at, as I said, at Summerween, so don't go near them until you have it." Gid gave the girl in front of him a glare that says behave.

Pacifica chirped out a what!? before whining out a elongated no and why?

Gideon gave the girl a hard glare that shut her up, seeing the seriousness of her cousin. "They knocked out more than one-forth of the creatures against them, all those without the charms, and injured half of the remaining that has charms. They left no one unwind even though there's only the two of them. Don't forget, Pines have needles, Paz. They're not soft, I tell you."

Paz just can't help but gulp, as she watched her cousin leave. The glow of his charm the last thing on her mind as she, too, slept.
