Gideon returned to the Tent of Telepathy with the captured Wendy in a water bottle, unaware that a tiny Dipper and Pacifica were clinging to his left shoe. The ride on the giant shoe had not been easy for the two tiny naked kids, who clung onto the shoelaces for dear life. Gideon reached his lair and wiped his shoes out on a shoe cleaner with brushes, which threw Dipper and Pacifica headed deeper into the lair with his prize. Dipper got up dazed and Pacifica sat on the ground crying.
"Hey will get out of this situation and back to normal. I will do everything in my power to make sure we don't get hurt or die." Said Dipper trying to comfort the girl.
"It's not that! I don't want people see me naked or see that I have a flat chest!" Cried Pacifica.
"Seriously? That's what you're worried about? You really have some dumb priorities." Said Dipper.
"My family taught me that losing, being unpopular, and being not pretty are the same as being dead! My mom read me The Ugly Duckling and she told me if I didn't strive to be pretty and popular, I would die alone and unloved!" Cried Pacifica.
"That's not how that story goes." Muttered Dipper, but Pacifica wasn't paying attention.
Dipper decided to move on and Pacifica saw this and not wanting to be left alone followed him.
"You know I have similar issues like you." Said Dipper wanting to try and cheer Pacifica up.
"As if! You're just a nobody like your sister and that dumb mermaid! I'm somebody important! If I died multimillion companies stocks would go down, people would lose their jobs, and it would make national headlines and become a historic tragedy! If you, your sister, or that mermaid die the only ones who would mourn you would be your fleas!" Said Pacifica.
Dipper had finally had enough of Pacifica's ego and bad mouthing of him and people he cared about. He turned and tackled Pacifica to the ground and the two of them rolled across the ground for a bit hitting each other, until they remembered they were both naked and they separated as they blushed hard. Unfortunately for them they had gotten the attention of Gideon who used his amulet to lift both the tiny naked kids off the ground and hold them in midair.
"Looks like I got me a couple of tiny intruders and is that Pacifica Northwest, I see. That's a surprise to see you tiny and naked." Said Gideon.
"So you know who I am then. Then you know how powerful my family is and how much money they have. Turn me back to normal and give me some clothes and I promise you a ton of money in return." Said Pacifica.
"Tempting, but that's not real power." Said Gideon.
"My family buys themselves a new private island for summer each year." Said Pacifica getting a gasp of surprise from Gideon.
"Ok that is admittedly impressive, but that power is a drop in the bucket compared to what I have going on. I have a very rare and unique collection going on and that mermaid will be the crown jewel of my business." Said Gideon as he walked over to some curtains and drew them back to reveal something.
Dipper and Wendy gasped at the collection of odd creatures on shelves in tanks and cages. Eyeballs with bat wings, a few gnomes, some kind of tiny elves, and tiny humanoid creatures that looked like they had golf balls for heads. Gideon went over to a fishbowl that held the tiny Wendy in it swimming around.
"This little darling has many magical properties that can be used for all kinds of stuff including lotion that can reverse the aging process. I'm going to be richer then you Northwest. This mermaid has a lot of potential and I'm going to become truly powerful." Said Gideon before he dropped Pacifica and Dipper into the glass tank with the elf creatures.
Gideon went off carrying the fishbowl with Wendy to make some calls. Dipper and Pacifica looked at the tiny elf creatures who stared back at them.
"Hi." Said Dipper nervously.
"Hello." Said one elf.
"What are you supposed to be and why are you two naked?" Said another elf.
"We're humans that got shrunk and we're not naked by choice." Said Dipper.
"I see." Said the second elf.
"So how long have you all been held captive?" Asked Dipper.
"For roughly over a year or so." Said the first elf.
"Have you tried to escape?" Asked Dipper.
"No the master is too strong to oppose. We would stand no chance against him." Said the first elf.
"It's best to not resist and get used to be a prisoner." Said the second elf.
"No! I refuse to be a prisoner to Gideon. I am Pacifica Northwest! Northwest take charge! We are getting out of here!" Yelled Pacifica.
The elf a and Dipper looked at Pacifica in surprise.
"She's right we can't just give up and just be prisoners." Said Dipper.
Pacifica marched up to the plastic wall and examined it.
"Everyone get against the wall." Said Pacifica.
Dipper and the elves joined Pacifica and they all pushed against the wall and the tank fell off the shelf. The tank hit the floor and fell on it's side allowing everyone to get out of the tank. Pacifica and the others cheered and the elf creatures thanked Pacifica saying they owed her before they scattered. Dipper saw the backpack and the crystal flashlight. He ran to it and examined it figuring how to work the controls and then he had Pacifica get in the front of the flashlight and get zapped by the growing light. Pacifica cheered a little as she was restored to normal size and then she picked up the flashlight and restored Dipper to normal size. The two kids then found some large Tent of Telepathy shirts to clothe themselves.
"Now let's go save Wendy." Said Dipper.
"You crazy we can't fight against Gideon, he's got powers. We need help." Said Pacifica.
"Fine, but we're freeing all these other creatures." Said Dipper.
The two kids freed the magical creatures and then they quickly fled the tent with Mabel's backpack and crystal flashlight. Gideon returned with Wendy and saw all his captured magical creatures were freed and the crystal flashlight was gone.
"Aaaaaa! You better run! No one steals from me!" Yelled Gideon.
Gideon went back into the tent and looked at the tiny Wendy in the fishbowl.
"I'm going to drain you dry of your magical potential." Said Gideon with a creepy grin.
Wendy just shuddered as she covered her breast. She hoped Dipper would save her.
