Chapter seven; We're partners
I'm baaaaack! Did you miss me? Admit it you missed me.
"Max, I'm warning you. This is between you and me. Leave her out of this." Dipper stated angrily.
"Why would I do that? So you can kill me? I think I'll pass." The man stated in satisfaction. Things weren't looking too good. Dipper knew that he needed to get Pacifica out of danger, but he could feel his tattoos singe his flesh. Pacifica on the other hand was trying to put as little pressure on her hair as possible as she held onto the buff man's hand.
"If anything happens to Pacifica, I'll sue…" Dipper cut Preston off before he could irritate him even more.
"Can it, old man! Can't you see that I'm busy?" Preston could only gawk at what Dipper had said so rudely to him. Priscilla on the other hand didn't stand for it.
"How dare you…" This time Pacifica cut her off.
"You're not helping, Mother!"
"Enough!" Maximus bellowed angrily as two large black wings ripped through the back of his shirt. Everyone immediately kept quite at the sight.
"What are y-you?" Preston stuttered as Maximus smiled devilishly. Dipper knew that he needed to act soon, otherwise they were all done for.
"So what is your plan? Possess all of the citizens of Gravity Falls? End up killing thousands of men and woman just because you're forbidden from possessing Nephilim?" Dipper asked with a growl. "You fallen angels brought this on yourselves. You were banished from your realm, because you didn't listen to reason. Now you want to take over our world?"
"You're wrong, Dipper. We want what you want. To defeat him." Dipper huffed in response.
"You're one of Bill's top members, last time I checked."
"Oh no. Not Bill, he is the reason we're building an army. We're going to go up against someone else. I believe that you heard of him. In our realm we call him Will…" Maximus trailed off as Dipper's eyes widened. Acting on instinct Dipper pulled out his gun. Thankfully it was already set to 'freeze'. Freezing Maximus in place, Dipper turned his attention towards Pacifica. If only Dipper had frozen Maximus's entire body, since his head was sticking out.
"Drop her!" The fallen angel bellowed and soon enough the buff man let her slip from his grip. Pacifica let out a horrified scream as she plunged towards the ground. In a bright blue flame Dipper disappeared and reappeared below Pacifica just in time to catch her bridal style.
"You okay, Princess?" Dipper asked as he tucked a stray hair behind her ear. She nodded hesitantly as a blush crept onto her cheeks. Gently Dipper set her down as his expression changed to a rather angry one. "Untie your parents. I have a phone call to make." Dipper stated as he fired his gun at the man on top without even looking.

After an hour of waiting, a group of men neatly dressed in suits was picking up the unconscious men that lay scattered throughout the cave. One of the unlucky soldiers were facing the wrath of Preston and Priscilla Northwest, whilst Pacifica was trying to calm them down. As one of the men began to move Maximus, Dipper stopped him.
"Hold it. I have a better idea in mind." Dipper said as he pulled out his katana. The blade was made from a black substance, but it shined like a normal blade would. Maximus's eyes widened when he saw the blade and he began squirming in the ice. "If I recall correctly the laws clearly state that any and all public threats should be terminated where they stand, isn't that correct soldier?"
"Yes sir." The man answered without hesitation. Preston and Priscilla swallowed their rampage to see what was going on. Immediately the man took a step back when Dipper's eyes turned a light blue and his tattoos lit up once more. The katana blade started glowing a faint blue as well.
"What was it you said? 'If you touch me he'll drop her', right? Something like that shouldn't go unpunished, wouldn't you say?" Dipper asked as he gripped the blade tightly.
"You're wrong!" Pacifica shouted as she ran in front of Dipper.
"Pacifica, move or so help me I'll cut you off! That man has caused enough trouble for our family!" Preston bellowed as he saw the interruption.
"Then cut me off!" Pacifica yelled back defiantly. "Dipper, this isn't you. The real you, is a kind and caring person. You showed that to me when put my safety above your own. Don't do something that you'll regret later." Pacifica begged as she looked him in the eye.
"Listen to the girl, Dipper. I don't want to die!" Maximus proclaimed nervously.
"He tried to kill you, Pacifica. Why shouldn't he get what he deserves?" Dipper asked as his stance didn't falter.
"Because it's not your choice to judge someone. He deserves court justice." Pacifica stated as tears began to freely fall down her cheeks. Dipper's eyes widened at the sight and their glow disappeared, and so did his tattoos'. He slowly lowered his katana as it's glow disappeared as well. Maximus blew out a breath of relief when he saw that he wasn't going to die anytime soon.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." Dipper apologized as he sheathed his katana.
"It's alright." Pacifica smiled as she wiped the few tears that were on her cheeks away.
"How dare you!" Preston bellowed as he marched over to Pacifica. Just as he began to raise his hand Dipper punched him straight on the nose sending him backwards onto the floor. Pacifica's eyes widened as she realized what had just happened.
"Just try to raise your hand at her again and I'll do much worse." Dipper threatened as he helped Preston up.
"Why you little…" Preston muttered angrily before wiping his bloody nose. "Pacifica, consider yourself cut off! That criminal deserved nothing more than death itself!" Preston bellowed angrily.
"No, he didn't! I don't care if you cut me off! I don't regret what I did." Pacifica stated defiantly. With that said Preston and Priscilla Northwest left Pacifica unanswered, to dwell on her own thoughts.
"I'm sorry. If I could've done something…" Pacifica cut Dipper off with a kiss on the cheek.
"Don't be. It was bound to happen sooner or later. Thank you for saving me. I'll see you around." Pacifica stated as she left an utterly baffled Dipper in her quake.

A week later…
Pacifica sighed heavily as she sat on the curb with a single suite case next to her. She was currently sitting in front of her apartment, that she was just kicked out of, because she couldn't pay rent.
"What the hell am I going to do now? My parents emptied all of my accounts, even all of my companies." Pacifica muttered as she buried her head in her hands.
"You know, moping isn't really something a girl like you should be doing?" A voice asked playfully. Pacifica's head shot up immediately and came eye to eye with enormous brown eyes.
"Dipper?" Pacifica asked as she stood up. "I thought you would've left by now?"
"Nah, Grunkle Stan and Ford are in town, so I decided to catch up a bit with them." Dipper smiled as he picked up her suitcase and headed towards his RV.
"Where are you going with my suitcase?" Pacifica asked questioningly.
"Well, I figured since you're jobless, as well as homeless, you can come and work with me." Dipper smiled devilishly.
"Are you serious?" Pacifica asked as her eyes widened.
"Of course. What kind of a sick person offers you something and denies it the next?" Dipper asked without thinking. "Oh wait. Bill does." Dipper huffed in irritation.
"As well as my parents." Pacifica muttered as she rolled her eyes.
"The question is; do you want to come work with me?" Dipper asked with a smile.
"Of course I do, but why would you want to work for me? I mean I am a handful, as well as use to the good life." Pacifica teased.
"I mean, we're partners." Dipper smiled even brighter. "Besides, you'll get use to the old girl after a while."
"Partners. I like the sound of that." Pacifica smiled as she followed after Dipper.
Well there it is people. I'll post the next chapter on Thursday or Friday, since I block then. XD. I know most of you will have questions about Nephilim, etc. But I have to have some surprises up my sleeve, don't I? P.S Review!
