The Deep End Part 1

At the Gravity Falls Pool, Toby is hiding behind a lounge chair and gets hit in the face with a water balloon and falls back. He gets back up.

"I guess you realize...THIS MEANS WAR!" he shouted throwing a water balloon of his own at another lounge chair. Sous pops out from behind it.

"Oh yeah? I'll roll over you like a pizza cutter through hot mozzarella, dude!" he said throwing a water balloon and hitting Toby in the face. Tyler pops up from behind the chair Toby is behind.

"Oh yeah? Take that!" he shouted throwing a water balloon at Sous and missing. Dipper comes out with a small catapult filled with water balloons.

"Oh sure. If you'll take THESE!" he shouted launch the water balloons at Toby and Tyler and hitting them.

"Hey! Ow! Whoa wait! Time out!" they both shouted, sliding over, do to the wet ground, to where Stan is sitting.

"Hey, do you two mind? I'm trying to enjoy the best lounge chair in the pool." he said.

"Guys, I told you before." said Wendy, who is the lifeguard of the pool, and is sitting at the lifeguard post. "No roughhousing water balloon fights without me."

"This is so unfair! Why can't Mabel play with us? If she was on our team, we would kick your butts at this!" said Toby complaining to Dipper.

"Do you want Mabel to be happy, or bored?" said Dipper. "Besides, she's over their talking to that Spanish dude. The guy never leaves the pool, did you know that?"

"Yeah. I'm not jealous because I keep forgetting to use my feet when swimming. That guy uses HIS feet to float. I"M GONNA LOOK AT THEM!" Toby sticks his head underwater to look at the Spanish guy's feet, but is shocked to see that he has no feet, because the Spanish guy is...a merman! Toby pokes his head back up and says "Oh my god! Guys, you gotta see this!"

Wendy pokes her head underwater and sees what Toby is talking about. She is shocked so much by this that she falls in the water and nearly drowns. Luckily, Dipper manages to pull Wendy out and give her CPR. She wakes up and says "Whoa! That's probably the craziest thing I have ever seen. Then again I've seen stranger. Ya know what? I say we help that merman get back to the ocean."

"Ooh! Another adventure for the mystery gang." said Toby excited. "I'll call the old kook, Blubs and Dur-land and tell 'em!"

"Hey let's not rush into this, gentlemen." said Wendy. "Since I was promised by Dipper that I get to be the leader of the mystery gang next adventure, I say we come back here at night, get the cooler, and drive the mystery cart to the lake."

"You've always told me to be sneaky about my rule breaking, so let's be sneaky." suggested Dipper.

"Look. I'M leader and we're gonna do it MY way." said Wendy sternly and heading back to her post.

"Why do I get the feeling that I made a BIG mistake?" said Dipper to himself.

Unbeknownst to them, someone with a magazine over his face was watching and heard everything they said. He then says to himself "I will not let my marshmallow be taken from me."

Later that night, at the pool, Dipper, Mabel, Sous, Wendy, Sheriff Blubs, Deputy Dur-land, the old kook, Tyler, Toby, and Waddles were sneaking and climbing over the fence.

"I can't believe my new boyfriend is a merman!" said Mabel excitedly. "I mean, I've always wanted to date a vampire, but this is totally better!"

"I know, right?" said Toby with his camera on. "This is just the story that millions of mermaid believers will want to see!"

"Do you think of anything else besides stories for the Gossiper?" asked Blubs.

"I wish I could say yes, but no, not really."

"Alright, gang. The cooler is in the storage room." said Wendy pointing in the direction of the storage room.

Waddles jumps into the pool and starts swimming in it. Toby is impressed by this and points his camera at it.

"Who knew that pigs could swim? This is Toby Determined with the latest mystery gang adventure, 'Free Willy!'" he said to the camera.

"Really? That's the best you can come up with?" ridiculed Dipper.

"Well, excuse me. I loved that movie."

"Stick to business, will ya."

Toby reaches in to get Waddles out of the pool and says "Alright. Come on, little buddy." Toby gets Waddles out of the pool and sets him down.

The gang stands before the door to the storage room, and Tyler says "I hope the storage room has something interesting." They open the door, and all there is is pool junk. "Nope. I thought not."

"Let's get that cooler, dudes. And while we're at it, get some floats." said Sous excitedly.

They close the door. Unbeknownst to them, someone was barricading the door from the outside by using all his strength to push the vending machine in front of it. The gang hears the fall.

"Uh oh. Sounds like trouble in sun city!" said Dur-land trying to push the door open, but it won't budge. "Great. Now we're trapped in here."

"Don't worry, guys." said Mabel positive. "We just have to wait out the night. Good thing I brought carrots for my little Waddles." Mabel gives Waddles a carrot, laughs, and pats his head.

"Never mind that, guys. There's the cooler we need." said Wendy pointing to a cooler.

"Let's make sure it's empty first. " suggested Dipper. They open the cooler, and see a little ice container with a flashing red circle on it.

"Is that a single ice container in an enormous cooler?" asked the old kook.

"Uh, no. Actually, it's something that's designed to look like an ice container." said Wendy.

"In other words, counterfeit ice." said Blubs.

"We might have to report that in." said Dur-land.

"Darn tooting! We've been iced by a phony ice case!" said the old kook.

"Next up on Free Willy, the ice counterfeiter." said Toby dramatically.

"Well that's not all." said Wendy worriedly. "Besides being a fake ice container, it's also a bomb."

"Stupid question time: When does the bomb go off?" asked Dipper worriedly.

"Exactly...TEN SECONDS FROM NOW!" shouted Wendy scared. Everyone is shocked and freaked out by this.

End of chapter. I wanted to show people that only Dipper is best suited for leader. I might do something like this again. Until next time. Ciao.
