MysterD47: Good, will do it the week after next...just so you know...if you want me to update the streaking curse, that will also cost a picture.

imperialwar1234: Okay...what are the ideas?

Guest: What?

...

Grunkle Stan looked at his nieces miserable condition...After Dipper vanished...she just feel into a depressed slump..she wouldn't leave her room...she wouldn't eat or drink...eventually Stan had no choice but to take her to the hospital to medically force-feed her nutrients...She was a wreck...

A week...he's been gone a whole week...thinks a depressed Mabel to herself... No one had seen Dipper for a week now...

Mabel was in tears..."I can't believe it...Dippers gone?...Is he hurt? Is he dead? What happened to you Dipper...please come back to me...I miss my Dipping Sauce!"

Without realizing it...Mabel started to sing...

I can barely stand right now.
Everything is crashing down,
And I wonder where you are...

Mabel reaches out of her hospital bed to pet her pig...

I try to find the words to say.
I don't always know the way,
But you're the one that can hear my heart...

Mabel brings out a picture of their childhood...happier..simpler times..

Even though I don't always know what your plan is,
I know you make me feel beautiful from these ashes.

An invisible Slenderman rolled his eye from nearby. "You can't blind yourself from the ashes of the world forever girl...no one can..."

together we've seen joy and we've seen pain

On my knees, I call your name.
Here's my broken hallelujah.

"True...you have seen both...the difference is..you run from pain...Dipper dose not...WILL not...to protect you..."

With nothing left to hold onto,
I raise these empty hands to you.
Here's my broken, here's my broken, Hallelujah

Mabel sighed as you looks through more pictures of her and Dipper being young, naive, and innocent...and wondering why things weren't like that anymore...

"Because your growing up, you stupid girl!" Snapped Slenderman silently as he read the girls thoughts.

You know the things that have brought me here.
You know the story of my every tear.
'Cause you've been here from the very start.

Mabel flips her scrap book to the ultrasound picture of her and Dipper inside their mothers stomach...

Even though I don't always know what your plan is,
I know you make me beautiful from these ashes.

"That's all well in good when your kids...but what about when Dipper wants to have a family of his own? Or after he dies?"

We've seen joy and we've seen pain.
On my knees, I call your name.
Here's my broken Hallelujah.

"I'm just saying...if you lapse into depression like this whenever you 'lose' someone important to you...I can't be the only one who sees how unhealthy that is..."

With nothing left to hold onto,
I raise these empty hands to you.
Here's my broken, here's my broken,
Hallelujah
(Here's my broken)
Hallelujah

Mabel sighs as the nurse takes away her bedpan...

When all is taken away, you won't let my heart be changed.
You always let me sing Hallelujah
when I feel afraid, you never let my hope be erased
You always let me sing (let me sing),
Let my always sing,
Hallelujah
(Let my always sing)
Hallelujah
(Let my always sing)
Hallelujah

"Translation: You shield me from hardship; so I never have to deal with my own problems and mature..."

Here's my broken,
Here's my broken,
Hallelujah

Mabel tappers off and falls asleep as the doctor injects her with more I.V. nutrients...

"Sweet dreams you little Co-Dependent..." Thinks Slenderman as he leaves unseen...

…..

"Alright; everyone got their assigned areas? Good! Search parties go!" Shouts Stan as he and numerous volunteers fan out to search the woods for Dipper...

One volunteer...made sure she was separate from the others...

Wendy Corduroy was conflicted...call it what you will...a catch-22...being cruel to be kind...robbing Peter to pay Paul...she was right smack dab in the middle of it...

On the one hand...she hated seeing Mabel like this...on the other hand...bringing Dipper back would just be enabling a self-destructive pattern of behavior that would inevitably not only hurt herself...but Dipper as well!

Add Dippers current animosity toward his family and...her current situation...it was all a hopeless tangled mess!

"And to think a week ago my biggest concern was my increasingly jerkass boyfriend..." Thinks Wendy sardonically to herself as she discretely heads for the bunker...

…..

"Shoot! I knew I forgot something!" Shouts Slenderman as he rewinds time to show the reader the events of a week ago...

…ONE WEEK AGO...

It was a curious and flustered Wendy who followed the instructions on the letter she received with the candy and flowers to the weird looking tree. Using her Lumberjack skills, she quickly went into the Bunker...where Dipper was waiting...and something else...
