Summer with the Pine Twins

Sock Opera: Part 4

Dipper's p.o..v.

He gives me a creepy smile as he tells me "Oh I would and I am," That's when (y/n) grabs the collar of mine, or I guess for now his shirt, and asks "What did you do to Dipper?" "Just hanging around in the mindscape. Race you to the bottom!" He pulls his shirt out of her grasp and leans back, tumbling all the way down the stairs.

(y/n) rushes down after him and I float downstairs in time to see (y/n) rush into the kitchen. "Human soda. I'm gonna drink it like a person," He pours the soda in his mouth before laughing and pouring it all over his face.

"So where do you two keep that journal anyway? It's gotta be around here somewhere," Bill asks as he puts his hand in the utensil draw and starts slamming it up against his arm. "Boy these arms are durable." "We've hidden it. Somewhere you won't find it in a million years!" (y/n) and I tell him in unison when Mabel walks in shouting "Hey Dipper! Hey (y/n)! I borrowed your journal to use as a prop in the show. I hope you don't mind. I'm gonna go before either of you can process a sentence ok bye!"

(y/n) and I stare after Mabel in disbelief. "Sure! Sounds great sister! I'll see you at the show!" He starts to follow after her and I shout at Mabel "No wait! Mabel don't listen to him, that's not me, you gotta hear me! No! No, wait! Stop!"

I shout as I fly outside and in front of Grunkle Stan's car but they drive through me as Bill walks up. "Welcome to the mindscape kid. Without a vessel to possess you're basically a ghost." "Oh hey, Dipper! There you are, need a ride?" Soos asks and I try to get Soos and Wendy's attention, it didn't work. "Soos! Wendy! Help me!" They get in the car.

"I'm gonna stop you, Bill. I'm gonna find that journal before you do and I'm gonna stop you!" "But how can you stop me if you don't exist?" He asks before maniacally laughing and they head off.

(y/n)'s p.o.v.

I throw the broom down that I had been using to sweep for the past minute, I had convinced Wendy and Soos that I was closing up the shack before heading to Mabel's play so I won't need a ride. I run outside to see them taking off, no sign off Bill which means he's with them. I start pacing around what was it Bill said? Dipper was in the mindscape?

Which means he's ugh...There. I sigh before I close my eyes and concentrate on bringing myself back to the mindscape once more. Once I open my eyes, everything around me was grey once more and I could see Dipper staring at Soos's truck as it drove off.

"Dipper!" I shout, earning his attention as I ask "What happened?!" "(y/n)?! You can see me? How?!" "We're in the mindscape, this is where I've been stuck in for the past five years, it's not easy to enter especially when awake so tell me why are you stuck here as a ghost, and why does Bill have your body?" "Bill tricked me into making a deal with him, I thought he was gonna take one of Mabel's puppets."

"Why did you make a deal with him?! I told you not to!" "I'm sorry! He pressured me using the laptop against me it had set a five-minute countdown before everything on it was deleted and now he's going after the journal and you'll be next!" "Not if we can stop him, come on we have to get to the theater," I tell him before returning to reality and make my way to the theater.

Mabel's p.o.v.

I peek into the crowd and see my family was here so I went off to say hello. "Hey guys, you made it!" "Are you kidding me? I would never miss whatever this is," Grunkle Stan tells me before Dipper asks "By the by Mabel where'd you put my journal again?"

"I used it as a prop for the big wedding scene. I still need a reverend though," I tell him. "Hey, what if I played the reverend? I mean someone's gotta hold that journal right?" "Great, let's go," I drag him backstage with me and get him in the dressing room. While he's changing I peek out of the curtain again to see Gabe, he came! The lights flicker as Grenda's voice rings out. "The show is about to begin, please turn off your cellphones. Unless you're texting me cuties." Candy starts to play the music and I start singing.
