I slowly wandered a little farther. Why hadn't I asked Dipper to come with me? Now I was hopelessly lost in the forest.
Crunch, crunch.
I froze. Those weren't my footsteps...they continued, and there were lots of them. Everywhere.
"Oh, Mabel!" A familiar voice called.
"Jeff!" I whined, spinning to face the tiny bearded dude. "For the last time, I'm not your queen!"
"Whatever, we'll make you!" Jeff grinned evilly.
I backed up straight into more gnomes. Everywhere I turned to run, there were more. I was trapped.
"Let me go!" I screeched as gnomes started pulling me down.
"I will never-hey, ow!" Jeff yelled at no one in particular.
The gnomes followed, and I heard a chorus of "ow"s. Someone was fighting them off. But who?
Then that little weird one-was it...Schmebulock? Yeah-leapt at me put of nowhere, he was going to hit me...
Then someone tackled me and I fell to the ground as Schmebulock hit a tree instead.
My head hit a tree root and everything went black, but I could barely see the outline of my rescuer fleeing into the woods.
I needed to somehow thank them.
But I didn't know who they were.
((Okay this is better.))
