"Ugh, where are we?" Asked our Mabel as she groggily woke up removing the dust and dirt off her clothes.
She looked around her holding her head as she stood up. There were large rocky walls all over with paths in between. Almost like...
"A maze?!" Exclaimed Mabel with a deep frown. "I always hated these things. DIPPER!"
Our Mabel tried calling for her twin many times but to no avail, causing her to give up.
As our Mabel groaned at the situation, she heard a familiar voice.
"Ugh, where are we?" Asked C Mabel as she groggily woke up.
"In a maze...alone." said our Mabel frowning as she crossed her arms.
"What?!" Exclaimed C Mabel in shock. "Dipper! Dipper!"
Our Mabel didn't stop C Mabel from calling for her twin in vain, she'd do the same in her place.
It wasn't long before C Mabel went silent, prompting our Mabel to speak.
"C'mon, maybe we can find something inside the maze." She said calmly as she gestured towards a path in the maze.
C Mabel didn't reply causing our Mabel to get a good look on her expression. She looked uncomfortable.
"Are you still on about me yelling at you?" Asked our Mabel in frustration and it seemed that she hit the nail on the head. "We don't have time for this. We need to find that crazy mailbox asap."
Mabel didn't reply and glared at our Mabel, causing her to frown.
"Are you for real? We. Are. Trapped. In a very dirty maze! We need to move!" Exclaimed our Mabel in frustration.
C Mabel grumpily looked away causing our Mabel to growl.
"So that's how it's gonna be, huh? Well, we're moving even if I have to carry you around." Said our Mabel crossing her arms as she approached C Mabel.
Before C Mabel could process what our Mabel just said, our Mabel lifted her counterpart like nothing and placed her on her back.
C Mabel let out a confused sound as she realized she was already on her counterpart's back.
"Woah, how did you-" C Mabel asked in confusion at how easily her counterpart was carrying her.
"I lifted Dipper the same way a few times here and there." Said our Mabel calmly as she trudged forwards.
C Mabel went silent as our Mabel easily carried her forwards.
This went on until the two came across what seemed to be a giant door with words carved on it.
"To understand one another is to understand oneself." C Mabel read off the door still being carried by her counterpart.
"Does this mailbox seriously have to be this corny?" Asked Our Mabel with a deep frown. "I can't even climb over the door with you on my back."
"Hey! If you hate me so much maybe you shouldn't have taken me with you!" Exclaimed C Mabel angrily.
"I hate you because, like right now, you're very uncooperative!" Our Mabel snapped as she dropped C Mabel onto the ground.
Suddenly, the door flashed red with a buzz causing our Mabel to turn to it in confusion before C Mabel distracted her.
"Oh yeah? At least I'm not a jerk to everyone!"
"I tried being good, but YOU couldn't just GET. THE. HINT!"
"Well, YOU were mean to YOUR Dipper!" Exclaimed C Mabel angrily.
"That doesn't even- ugh, I do it because he sometimes gets carried away and does very stupid things! It's MY responsibility to stop him when that happens!" Snapped Our Mabel angrily. "Because I'm the older sibling!"
The door buzzed and glowed red once again, but this time both Mabels noticed.
The two went silent as they stared at the giant door in their way.
Our Mabel frowned as an idea entered her head.
"I hate Dipper?" She said to the door before it buzzed red "it reacts to lies."
"You were lying?!" Asked C Mabel angrily.
Our Mabel turned red in shame.
"What else have you lied about?!" Exclaimed C Mabel angrily.
Our Mabel didn't answer and avoided eye contact.
"I can't believe I'm such a jerk!" Exclaimed C Mabel in exasperation. "Next you'll tell me you're not even me!"
"I'M NOT!"
Silence filled the room as the door didn't indicate any lies. C Mabel stared at her counterpart whose eyes began filling up with tears.
"I'm not you. *Sob* I'm just a stupid fake." Said our Mabel sobbing.
C Mabel looked confused. "What?".
"I was... someone else. Then one day, I woke up as baby you." Said our Mabel dejectedly as she sat on the floor. "When I saw you, I felt like a fake. Someone who stole you away from Dipper especially when you wanted me to be so much like you... that's why I hate you."
The door buzzed red, indicating that the last sentence was a lie.
C Mabel stared with sympathy at her counterpart. She looked at the ground before approaching our Mabel and said something that surprised her.
"Then, using the authority of being Mabel, you're now officially a Mabel too." Said C Mabel cheerfully.
"Didn't you hear me?! I'm a fake! A thief! I replaced you! And i- i-" said our Mabel as two streams of tears flowed out of her eyes. "I hate you."
The door buzzed red at the last sentence.
"Nope, you're a Mabel...your own kind of Mabel and I'm sure the me you replaced would say the same thing."
Hearing those words, Mabel felt as if a weight was lifted off her shoulders.
And with that, the door opened.
The two Mabels turned to the door in union to see what was behind it and saw...
""Dipper!"" The two exclaimed in union upon seeing their brothers.
"Woah!" Exclaimed our Dipper seeing his sister rushing towards him for a tight hug as the canon twins also shared their own hug. "Hey, what did we miss?"
"Not much." Replied our Mabel cheerfully.
Our Dipper saw his sister glance at her counterpart with a smile and smiled.
It seemed that everything was on the right track.
Then the mailbox appeared.
Our Mabel saw it and immediately replied by throwing a rock at it. "That's for throwing us underground you tin can!" She yelled angrily.
Our Dipper quickly followed his sister's example and also threw a rock at the mailbox.
"That's for a hole of pain!"
The canon twins shortly joined in and the omniscient mailbox was being pelted with rocks left and right.
Sparks flew off of the mailbox before it disappeared in a flash, leaving behind a portal and a letter.
C Dipper grabbed the letter and read. "Geez, I was just trying to help. Here's your way back home. PS, don't let this affect how you see my counterpart he's a nice guy."
Our twins stared up at the portal before turning to their counterparts.
"Guess this is it." Said our Mabel with a smile. "Thanks for the... y'know."
C Mabel gave her a thumbs up in response.
"Whatever Mom says, not everyone knows a little Spanish. It's a lie and you end up learning a whole language for nothing." Our Dipper said to his counterpart.
"I don't think that's gonna happen, but sure." Replied C Dipper with a shrug.
And with those parting words, our twins arrived back at their world.

"Kids, welcome your new housemate, Shmebulock."
Dipper and Mabel could only stare in shock at what Stan had just said.
