Hello and welcome to the next chapter of Gravity Falls Sharingan: The Brand New Revamped Renewed Deluxe Edition (Why did I gave it such a long name in the first place?). I'm supposed to update it only once a month, but this time, I took an exception just this once and decided to post this chapter. I appreciate the reviews you have given to this story and the next ones to come, I'm really working hard in making this enjoyable for all you guys! :)
Anyway, this chapter will be longer than the last one, obviously, and I will also give some information on stuff from either Naruto or Gravity Falls, though since Naruto has an immense universe it will be mostly about Naruto. (flatly) Yay.
While most of the jutsus in this fic will be the ones used in the series, I also took the liberty to make up a few. The first one in this fic is Eternal Dragon of Water and Thunder. What does it do? Read below and be amazed. Also, Pacifica is in this chapter, but probably not in the way you-or anybody at all-expected.
Also, I think I didn't say how Candy and Grenda dressed like, did I? Well, Candy wears a long-sleeved white dress, which covers her bandaged arms and legs. Grenda wears a long-sleeved grey shirt with matching pants, a pair of shoulder pads with a spike on them, and a red cape.
Ninken, practically dogs BUT AS NINJAS!, are the companions of the Inuzuka Clan, who are known for their collaboration techniques with their ninken partners. Why do I bring this up?...moving on.
The ANBU are the protectors of their respective villages, taking assignments and orders from the land's kage. They also cannot be arrested by the police equivalent of Naruto, the Konoha Military Police Force, without a warrant. That's all I know though, outside of the fact that Yamato (A brown-haired ninja guy who replaces Kakashi at a certain point) is part of this group.
Their uniform, as I read on the wiki, consists of black clothing, a grey flak jacket, metal arm guards and gloves, ninja sandals with spikes for travelling into mountainous regions, three pouches on their back-waist and a signature spiral tattoo on their shoulder. Phew, good thing that's out-of-the-way.
Anyway, that's all, so read and enjoy! Oh, and don't forget to review too! :)
(Woods of the K.I.A.)
A huge explosion occurred, Dipper coming out of it completely unharmed, and unfortunately so did Grenda. She was running after the boy, throwing her huge shuriken towards him in hope of striking him in the leg, slowing him down.
Dipper managed to dodge the shuriken, which continued until it hit some trees, cutting most of them until it got stuck on a tree with a thick trunk. Groaning in frustration, Grenda walked to the tree and took out her shuriken from it, looking around to see that the boy had disappeared.
The girl then walked to Candy, all while Dipper, hidden inside a tree, watched as he used the Flying Swallow technique on his kunai. Initially the boy went unnoticed as the two girls looked around, however, it didn't took long before Candy turned to the tree, sporting a demonic grin. Surprised, Dipper got out of the tree just as Candy did a dragon+tiger+hare combination.
"Water Release: Wild Water Wave!"
Water started to flow from the girl's mouth, who aimed it at the tree. Intensifying the strength of her attack by at least a hundred times, the tree was eventually to rip off from the ground, Dipper barely managing to not get squashed by it as it fell close to him.
"Now how did that happen? It's just not possible for any ninja to make an attack as intense as that." thought Dipper, looking back at the girls and remembering their light blue chakras, "That's it, they must be using the Cypher Beast's chakra."
"At last you understand the situation!"
"I'm in your head, little fool!" Dipper simply continued to look for the source of the voice, while dodging Candy's jutsus and parrying with Grenda, "You know, the Cypher Beast!"
"The Cypher Beast?"
Before he could react, Dipper was punched by Grenda, the punch being strong enough to send him towards a tree. With the boy getting up, Candy chuckled before quickly doing the tiger hand seal. "Hiding in Mist technique!"
The entire place became covered in mist shortly afterwards, Candy and Grenda both laughing like a maniac as their silhouettes disappeared from view. Dipper's sharingan also deactivated, the boy getting up and realizing in what trouble he was in when he looked around.
"Darn it, I can't use my Sharingan with this mist!" thought Dipper, gripping his kunai as he felt both Candy and Grenda approaching, "I need to dissipate it somehow."
Just then Grenda, with her hands surrounded by electricity, ambushed the boy, who managed to dodge it in time. Once the girl took out a kunai which was covered in electricity, Dipper narrowed his look as he and Grenda engaged in a battle between their kunais, fighting in equal force while Candy prepared another jutsu.
"Water Release: Gunshot!"
Candy knead some chakra and, turning it into water, jumped high to release a water ball the size of a meteorite. Grenda left Dipper alone, who turned around and could only look worried as the gunshot hit him, sending the boy to a tree. "Now that's just cheap!" complained Dipper as he got up, doing the hare+bird combo hand seal shortly afterwards, "Wind Release: Mist-Dissipate Tornado!"
Dipper spun for several minutes and, eventually, a huge tornado was formed, which dissipated the mist...somehow. Once everything dispersed, Dipper was too dizzy to notice Grenda rushing towards him. Grabbing his leg, Grenda constantly spun around before throwing the boy to another tree, Candy walking to her as Dipper tried and failed to get up.
"Ready to do this, Candy?" asked Grenda.
"Ready like always, Grenda." answered Candy.
With that said, the girl did an extremely fast hand seal combination, Dipper being unable to decipher just what seals they were doing before falling down yet again. "Storm Release: Eternal Dragon of Water and Thunder!"
A huge amount of water from the lake nearby suddenly rises and shaped itself like a dragon, Grenda raising her hands and shooting some electricity at it as the sky started to get clouded, with a few lighting coming out of the dragon that striked some of the trees, and one nearly striking Dipper.
Grenda then lowered her hands to the ground, a pair of electrical chains coming out of the ground and binding Dipper as the dragon ready to attack. With the dragon rushing at him at extreme speed, the boy closed his eyes and waited for the inevitable...
"Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall!"
Suddenly, a huge earth wall came out of the ground in front of the boy, the dragon crashing in it and only managing to slightly crack it. Opening his eyes, the boy looked at the teenage figure that was responsible for the earth wall: Wendy's figure. "Wendy?" asked Dipper, genuinely surprised at the girl's arrival.
"Good thing I managed to arrive in time."
Surprised for a moment at the sudden materialization of the earth wall, Grenda removed her hands from the ground, removing the chains holding Dipper in response. Candy quickly formed an ox+horse+ram combo with a hybrid look of determination and annoyance. "Water Release: Cold Sky Water Attack!"
Hearing that, Wendy grabbed Dipper and quickly left before Candy shot large ice darts out of her mouth towards the earth-style wall, the wall crumbling into pieces shortly afterwards. The two girls growled once they saw Wendy standing there, but without Dipper by her side. "Now you're gonna mess with me."
"Where is the cypher host?" asked Candy in a scornful tone.
"Come closer and I'll tell you." replied Wendy with a smug smile.
Exchanging a confused look with Grenda, Candy walked closer to the teenager as she put her hands on her back, starting a hand seal combination as the girl stopped. "Closer."
With an exasperated growl, Candy walked until she was literally facing the teenager, who finished the combination. "That is close enough, now let me crouch down so I can whisper it to you." Wendy did crouch down and, slowly leaning to the girl's ear, she raised one of her arms to show that it was now encased in rock.
Candy could only gasp in shock before being punched by the teenager's rock encased arm, sending her flying unconscious to her friend Grenda. She managed to catch Candy just as she fell down, giving a furious glare at the teenager as she put her friend down. "Did you really thought I would tell you anything?"
(Near the exit of the forest)
Dipper woke up to see his sister, Mabel, and Soos by his side. Soos was somehow shaping water while Mabel was holding Dipper's hand. "Calm down Dipper, Soos will take care of your injuries." instructed Mabel, Soos nearby waving hello as she said so.
"I call it Water Release: Water of Life!" said Soos before going to Dipper and giving him the water, "There you go, Dipster."
The boy took a sip from the water and waited for a moment, feeling his injuries mostly going away after a short wait. "Hey, I'm actually feeling better now."
"Glad to hear that." the boy turned to see Stan walking to him, "Soos here practiced this technique for weeks. You should thank him."
"Yeah, you're right. Thanks Soos."
"No biggie, Dipper, as long as your injuries have been healed, I'm happy."
"Why did you all came, though?" asked Dipper as he tried to get up, only to fall again, "I'm a cypher host now."
"You may be a cypher host, but you're also part of this team. Part of this family. And my brother." explained Mabel, "We couldn't just leave you to die with those two psychopath cypher hosts. Now take a rest, we'll take it from here, and then we'll see what we'll do about your cypher host status. Soos, stay here and make sure his recovery doesn't go wrong."
"Yes, Mabelizabeth!" replied Soos while doing the "yes sir!" gesture, earning a chuckle from the girl in response before leaving with Stan.
(Back with Candy, Grenda and Wendy)
Wendy was giving Candy and Grenda a hard time: she constantly hit Candy with her earth jutsus while also dodging Grenda's lighting attacks. However, just as she hit Grenda, the girl grinned and somehow teleported out of sight, kicking the teenager's back strong enough to send her flying to a tree.
Wendy didn't manage to recover in time and hit the tree, falling to the floor instantly. In that moment Mabel and Stan arrived, helping the girl get up after she fell. "Is he okay?" pried Wendy, earning a nod and smile from the two in response, "Thank goodness."
"Look at that, Candy, the rest of that cypher host's "friends" came to his aid. That's quite odd." said Grenda in a mocking tone, earning an angry glare from the duo in response.
"I'm rather puzzled by them being here too, Grenda." replied Candy with a chuckle.
"You messed with my nephew, now you'll mess with all of us: Team Mystery!" stated Stan, cracking his fists, "The only way you'll be able to get to him now, is to go through our dead bodies!"
"That can be arranged!"
(Back with Dipper and Soos)
Dipper, looking sad about his current state, continued to rest as Soos used a pair of binoculars to see the fight. "Whoa, dude, it looks like the battle's intensifying." said Soos, passing the popcorn to Dipper, "You want some? Or a pair of binoculars?"
The boy simply nodded no, the popcorn being taken away from him before he decided to rest for a minute. "Psst..." the boy heard the "psst" and woke up, looking around to find the source. After failing to find anything other than Soos with popcorn, Dipper shrugged and decided to sleep again. "Dipper...Dipper..."
(Inside Dipper's Mind)
"DIPPER!"
"Who...who is it?" it didn't took long before Dipper noticed the voice sounded...familiar, "Wait, I recognize that voice. It's the voice I heard before...I felt that pain in my right eye."
A malevolent, demonic laugh was heard from behind, the boy turning to see a single eye-opening in the darkness. "It is I, the Cypher Beast." the beast showed It's body, and the cage it was in was illuminated by the light blue flames covering his body. The beast grinned as it continued to talk with the boy, who didn't hide the fact that he wasn't happy to see him again, "You need my help, do you realize that?"
"And why would I need your help?" asked Dipper, crossing his arms and turning away from the beast.
"Only another cypher host can remove one of my pieces from another cypher host's body, and unless any of your friends have a good enough substitute, which doesn't exist by the way, the cypher hosts will escape so they continue their rampage. If you want them to live, or make sure those cypher hosts don't do any more damage, you must make a deal with me."
"And what difference would it make? It's not like I'm any stronger than those two girls."
"Hahaha! You are no ordinary cypher host, lad. You are the prime cypher host, the cypher host of the only sentient piece of myself: the main body, the mind, the rest of the pieces are just mindless part of myself who wish nothing more than destruction...and myself, of course." "Make a deal with me, and you'll get power beyond your comprehension, chakra that rivals that of a tailed beast! And best of all, the power to defend those that you care about."
Although he still didn't believe the Cypher Beast, Dipper took into consideration the offer, scratching his chin as he did so. "What do you want for the deal?" asked Dipper, turning back to the beast, who grinned in response, "I get the feeling you want me to give you something in exchange."
"...Hehehe...what I want, is to make the deal." with that said and done, the beats extended his hand, or at least his index finger, to the boy. He hesitated for a moment before sealing the deal with the finger, still confused as the beast started to laugh, "AND YOUR BODY!"
Realizing what just happened, Dipper could only look as his arm, and eventually his whole body, was covered in light blue chakra, his eyes turning from blank on the right and normal to the left to both have rectangular pupils.
(Back in reality)
Some electricity surrounded Dipper once he woke up, catching the attention of Soos. "Dipper?" asked the man, oblivious to the boy's eyes.
Stan, Mabel, Wendy, Candy and Grenda were about to fight before a huge explosion was heard, the trio turning around curious while the two cypher hosts got scared looks on their faces. "Candy, I believe we should get the very heck out of here!"
"Yes, Grenda, I agree with you!"
The two cypher hosts took a run for it, the team once again turning around with a confused look. From the woods came out a shadowy figure surrounded by light blue flames, and with a disturbing grin on his face. It also had a shining, hovering triangle on his back.
Soos, looking badly beaten up, came out of the woods and went to the trio. "Guys, you have to get out before he beats you like he beat me!" warned Soos with a terrified tone, pointing at the figure.
"But who is he?" questioned Wendy.
The figure walked forward, the shadows covering it disappearing to show Dipper, with rectangular and a third eye on his forehead. Apart from that, he didn't look all that different. "Dipper?!" asked a horrified Mabel and Wendy in unison, Stan narrowing his look instead.
"Hahahaha! It's been so darn long I had a body like this! The chakra, the wind, the elements, It's like I was a physical being all over again!" Dipper started to laugh hysterically as his voice eventually distorted until it sounded just like the Cypher Beast's voice, calming down for a moment before turning to Candy and Grenda with a disturbingly cheerful look on his face, "Now, who wants to be the first cypher host to have It's piece extracted?!"
Looking from far away to see the two cypher hosts running for their lives, Cypher Dipper dashed towards them, leaving light blue after images and "Stan, what happened to Dipper?" asked Mabel in a worried tone.
"He made a deal with the Cypher Beast." explained Stan.
"Is that something bad?" pried Mabel, fearing the answer.
Cypher Dipper caught both girls, constantly hitting them with such a speed the rest of the team were unable to tell just what was happening. Once he actually stopped, Candy and Grenda both looked like they were on the verge of death, with blood coming out of their noses and mouth as Cypher Dipper walked to them. "And this is just the beginning!"
"Yes, it is something bad." replied Stan.
From there, the team saw the horrifying sight of Cypher Dipper phasing his hands through the girl's chests somehow, and ripping off two shuriken-shaped orbs that were surrounded by light blue flames, presumably the cypher pieces. They also returned to normal, as their eyes were shown to get their pupils back before they collapsed.
What happened next was that the two shuriken things turned white and turned into liquid, which then went inside the boy's skin as he laughed like a maniac. With both things inside, the appearance of Cypher Dipper had changed again: This time, what seemed like the outline of a top hat made of light blue flames got on top of his head, his fingernails sharpened until they became fangs and part of his skin were ripped off, revealing some light blue aura on the exposed parts.
Just as Cypher Dipper continued to laugh, Stan walked to him and slapped him at the back of his head, knocking him out and canceling the cypher mode in the process. "Okay, this is just something I gotta ask: how did you manage to do that?" pried Mabel in disbelief at what just happened.
Stan turned and showed the girl his palm, where it was revealed that there was a tattoo of a pyramid with a single eye in it. "Is that...the cypher seal?" asked Wendy as she and Soos went to the two pines.
"Yes, It's something given to all members of the ANBU mackerel unit, and it never fades away." Stan then turned to the unconscious Dipper, "Which is something good, because otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to stop him."
Stan then turned to see the unconscious girls lying around, narrowing his look before turning to Wendy and Soos. "Wendy, Soos, take those girls to the hospital. We need to find out where they came from." ordered Stan.
"Yes sir!" replied the duo in unison.
Wendy and Soos went running to the girls, grabbing them and jumping back to the village. "Mabel, help me take your brother back to the house." what Stan got in response was a hesitant nod, lifting the boy with Mabel's help and jumping back to Hidden Gravity shortly afterwards.
(Stan's house, Dipper and Mabel's room)
Recovering consciousness, Dipper slowly opened his eyes, his blurry vision eventually fading away to see he was at his and Mabel's room, with her worried sister and grunkle by his side. "What happened?" asked Dipper.
"You made a deal with the Cypher Beast, it possessed your body, went nuts for a while." quickly explained Stan, Dipper raising his eyebrow in confusion, "But luckily I managed to use the seal on my hand."
"Oh right, you were part of the Mackerel ANBU unit. That was quite unexpected." remarked Dipper, before remembering about Candy and Grenda, "Wait, what happened to the girls?"
"We can answer that."
The trio turned to see Wendy and Soos standing by the door, waiting for a moment before Stan broke the silence. "What happened to the girls?"
"Well, they recovered rather quickly, specially since the cypher pieces were ripped from them not too long ago." answered Soos, "We also managed to ask them a few questions before taking them back home."
"Well, what did they tell you?" questioned Stan.
"The raven haired one is a medical nin from this village, but her redheaded friend is a chunin from Hidden Cloud." explained Wendy, crossing her arms before resuming, "We managed to escort the redhead back to Hidden Cloud, but she only cooperated once her friend came with us. Apparently she was supposed to spend the night with her before they were struck by the Cypher pieces."
"Poor girls. Well, at least the cypher pieces were extracted from them." remarked Mabel, scratching her head as she realized something, "But now that we mention it, just what happened to the pieces? I know they turned white, then into liquid and went inside Dipper somehow, but I still have no idea what happened."
"The pieces were assimilated." stated Stan, "Once the prime cypher host, Dipper in this case, takes the cypher pieces from other cypher hosts, the pieces will be added to his own, and the cypher beast will recover more of It's power. That is what with the cypher pieces and why Dipper's appearance changed."
"Is there any limit?"
"As long as there are cypher pieces, the process has no known end. The pieces will be assimilated" this explanation was met with worry, though Dipper received it with fear instead, "What we need to know, however, is the number of pieces the cypher beast broke off. You remember anything about that Dipper? Probably 11, 12 pieces?"
"I..can't really answer." Dipper then felt intense pain as he changed into Cypher Dipper, his voice turning into the cypher beast's instantly, "But I can!"
In retaliation everybody took out their kunais, narrowing their looks as Cypher Dipper laughed. "Relax, puny ninjas, all I can do for now is answer your question, I can't do anything else. Here's the answer: I broke myself in 17 pieces with yours truly included, no more, no less." stated Cypher Dipper, right before returning back to normal with the lovely addition of a headache, "Darn it, I hate it when he does that!"
"With the prime piece and the other two Dipper got, that leaves us with 14 pieces left to find. But for now, we need to rest. Go back to your houses, and be sure to get a good night sleep."
"Yes sir!"
With that said, Wendy and Soos jumped through the window back to their houses, Stan leaving the room while Mabel stayed behind, remaining at her brother's side until the night arrived.
(Later that night)
The twins were sleeping peacefully, or at least Mabel was. Dipper silently groaned and gripped the top of his head in pain, as he felt some sort of voice echoing on his head. Getting louder and louder, the boy woke up and still heard the voice, getting up and turning to the window to see the sight of a mysterious, black hooded feminine figure.
The figure had It's two eyes opened, revealing what looked like the byakugan and rinnegan, and on top of the hood what looked like horns. "You...are a danger to the village...you must not continue living in this place..." said the figure, causing intense pain to the boy's hear, "You must leave as fast as you can, and never return!"
That shout practically made the boy scream in pain and fall from his bed, covering his ear as the figure continued to speak. "Leave the village, or all you care about will suffer..." said the hooded woman, her voice echoing in the boy's mind as she disappeared.
Mabel woke up due to the scream, getting off her bed and running to her agonizing brother. "Dipper!" the boy failed to hear her due to still being deaf from the figure's shout. Once he managed to regain his ability to hear, Dipper opened his eyes and saw his desperate sister slapping him to wake him up, "Dipper, talk to me! What happened?!"
"Mabel stop that, I'm in enough pain already! And I...I don't know what exactly happened. I saw a figure outside that told me that I was a danger to the village, and that I should leave if I...don't want everything I care to be hurt." the boy paused for a minute, got up and then changed to his usual training attire, "I need to leave and never come back here."
"But Dipper, think about what you're doing: if you leave the village with no intent to return, you'll be marked as a missing-nin and the ANBU will try to destroy you!" wailed Mabel, shaking her brother back and forth as she continued, "Further more, just think what will everybody think if you leave the village!"
Dipper was a bit busy trying to regain his vision after being shaken repeatedly. What he first saw when he regained it, though, was his own sister, tears coming out of her eyes and whimpering, trying her hardest not to cry.
"The team won't be the same without you! Heck, I won't be the same without you!" before resuming, Mabel grabbed her brother's hand and gave him a sincere look of worry, "Just please, please stay for a minute or two so we can discuss what to do with your identity as a cypher host, okay?"
"I'm sorry Mabel, there's just no other-"
"Don't even think about finishing that sentence!" scolded Mabel, her sadness changing to determination as she looked at Dipper's eyes, "Dipper, look into my eyes and repeat after me: there is another way!"
Mabel was met with dead silence and a worried look from her brother, who looked down with a look of full dysphoria on his face. "Come on Dipper, look at my eyes, focus! Repeat after me: there is another way!"
"Dipper, for the last time, repeat after me!" Dipper just closed his eyes and nodded no in response "There! Is!"
The boy quietly whispered "No other way." before the girl even finished, opening his eyes again and seeing her with a melancholic look on his eyes before resuming. "There's no way out of this: I'm no regular cypher host, I'm the prime cypher host. I'm the host of the only sentient part remaining of the cypher beast: the most powerful and craziest of the pieces, to be exact."
"Dipper..."
"Everybody knows that I'm a cypher host, and no matter what happens, they'll always know. Besides, since the cypher beast is so unpredictable, he could try to control my body again, and I wouldn't even notice...just imagine the pain I would cause to you, to Stan, to the team, to the village..."
Mabel covered her ears, wanting to stop hearing her brother say such things. "Stop talking!"
"That is exactly why I must leave: so everybody is safe...from me."
With that said, Dipper went through the window, looking at his sister one more time before going out and jumping through the roofs, Mabel looking down with a woe look just as Stan arrived, having heard the scream from his room. "Mabel, what happened? Where's Dipper?"
The girl, uncovering her ears, slowly turned to her grunkle, stating "...He left." with a look of complete grief.
(At the forest)
Dipper arrived at the entrance of the forest near the village, looking back with a regretful look at his village shortly afterwards. His sight did not last long, however, as he soon heard something approaching.
By his very eyes he saw the hooded figure from before reappear in front of him, "Who are you, and why does your voice cause me pain when I hear it?" questioned Dipper, covering his ears.
"My identity is of no importance...yet. For now, find a place to stay in for the night, and then, I'll tell you what to do next." Dipper looked away from the figure, who walked closer to the boy and crouched down, pulling his face so the two would be face-to-face, "It's all for the greater good...and for all you care about."
With that said, the figure once again vanished, the boy uncovering his ears before starting his search for a new home. He looked around for a shortcut to the nearest mountains or caves, though obviously the most he managed to see were trees and bushes. And then he heard some dreaded sounds; those of a growling wolf, several of them coming out of the shadows as Dipper rolled his eyes and took out his kunai.
"Wolves. I hate wolves." the boy spoke, narrowing his look as the wolves came closer.
However, when the wolves were about to attack the boy, two loud howls were heard, a gigantic shadow...overshadowing the boy and wolves, who turned around in response. What they saw was a giant, golden-colored wolf that had two heads, both looking down at the smaller wolves with a gurious glare and fiery red eyes.
The two-headed wolf roared at the wolves with such a force they were sent flying back to the forest, soon followed by Dipper if the boy hadn't grabbed on a nearby rock. Once the wolf stopped, the wolves whined as they left running as fast as they could, the boy glancing between them and the two-headed wolf with an amazed look.
With the wolves done the two-headed wolf smiled before turning completely white, eventually shrinking down and breaking into two beings when it was about Dipper's size. The two beings were a yellow ninken dog with a red collar and a blonde girl.
The blonde girl's hair was as long or possibly even longer than his sister's, and she was wearing a long-sleeved purple trench coat and white pants with black knee caps. She was also wearing a lavender shirt with the sleeves torn and the stomach part ripped off, exposing her midriff. Both of her cheeks had red fang marks.
"Hey buddy, were those wolves messing with you? If so, you should at least thank me." Dipper looked dumbfounded as the blonde girl got off the golden dog and walked to him, helping the boy get up before continuing, "You should be more careful around the forests at night, though I have to question what are you doing here in the first place."
"I'm gonna turn into a missing-nin, because I have the only sentient piece of the infamous cypher beast inside me, making me the prime cypher host." bluntly stated Dipper, expecting the worst.
"Yeah, cool, whatever." said the girl, not bothering to hide the fact she didn't care as she helped the boy get up, "So, what's you name?"
"D-Dipper Pines."
Before replying to the answer, the girl and Dipper both got on top of the dog. "Name's Pacifica Northwest, though most people know me better as Pacifica Inuzuka. Hey, how about I let you stay at my cottage for a night or two? There Isn't anywhere nearby that is safe, so you can't say no."
Before the boy would say anything, the dog started to run back to the girl's cottage, Dipper screaming as Pacifica laughed and the dog went faster and faster. Once they had left, an ANBU member with a cat-shaped mask came out of the shadows and took out a walkie-talkie.
"I think I found him, I'll follow the prime cypher host and his acolyte and tell you of their site once I get there."
(At Pacifica's Cottage)
Once they had arrived, Pacifica-with a scared Dipper tightly grabbing her waist-got off her dog and walked to the door, turning to the boy before doing anything else. "Don't worry, we already got off Kiniroko." with those words heard, Dipper looked around and released Pacifica, nervously laughing as the two went inside.
What Dipper saw once the two were at the cottage was nothing out of the ordinary, nor anything that was not common in cottages: It had two closed windows, a carpet and two beds: one that was for Pacifica's ninken and another that was one for humans.
"It's nothing classy, but It's better than nothing." said Pacifica before pointing at the bed, "You sleep over there, and I'll sleep with Kiniroko. I insist."
Pacifica and her golden dog walked to a bed for dogs, the dog going there first with the girl soon joining him once he fell asleep. Dipper went to the bed, glancing at Pacifica before he got in there.
He continued to watch the girl until she looked back with an angry look, gesturing him to stay there and go to sleep. Afraid to get on the girl's bad side, Dipper tucked himself and fell asleep, Pacifica giving the sleeping boy a pleased smile before continuing to sleep.
Outside, the ANBU member from before arrived at the cottage and looked through a window the sleeping Dipper and Pacifica. After seeing that, he took off his mask to show he was a man presumably in his 20s with short brown hair and black, almond-shaped eyes. He took out his walkie-talkie and walked a safe distance away from the cottage, glancing at it briefly before he turned on his walkie-talkie.
"Yamato here, I have located the prime cypher host's site. He's in a cottage on the forest close to Hidden Gravity." told Yamato to the walkie-talkie, "He has an acolyte, an adopted member from the Inuzuka clan, Pacifica Northwest. Bring in a squad of soldiers for when they decide to resist."
"Copied."
"Yamato out."
To Be Continued
