Violet POV
“Shit.” I mumbled underneath my breath, slumping down against the flipped over table that we were using for coverage.
“Why are we doing this again?” Huey groaned out in frustration on my left, gasping for air.
Another arrow flew past us, nearly hitting Huey square in the head.
“Because we both need Louie to survive.” I said with finality in my tone.
Huey just sighed in response before standing up from our cover and firing back at the eggheads with a stolen FOWL gun.
I pulled out Dipper’s book and started mumbling an incantation under my breath.
“Vi, you better know what you’re doing!” Huey shouted down at me, covering for me.
I just started chanting faster and suddenly all the arrows coming at us turned the other direction, pelting the eggheads. I didn’t dare look back as I finished the spell, shoved Dipper’s book in my bag, and rushed me and Huey out of that room and into an empty hallway.
“Jeez Vi, I still don’t get how you know how to do that.” Huey sighed.
“I don’t. I just panicked.” I responded blankly.
“Well, you should do it more often.” Huey suggested gently.
I looked over at him, he seemed to walk more confidently nowadays, I wish I knew why. “I guess I should.” I offered him a small smile, which he returned.
“Let’s get out of here.” Huey grinned, offering me his hand. I took it and squeezed gently.
“Where do you think they’re keeping him?” I asked once we’d passed a sign that was labeled “Labs”.
“Well, he’s a prisoner of sorts, so maybe in some kind of tricked out cage?” Huey guessed. “Oh, also, do we have anything from Dewey?”
I pulled out my phone and checked my texts.
“Shit.” I said. Huey looked over at me in panic. “I’ll handle this, you keep looking for Louie.”
“Vi, what is it?” He asked.
“I- nothing, I’ll take care of it.” I replied, letting go of his hand.
“But Louie could be right here-”
“I know.” I said sharply, tears already forming in my eyes at the realization of what this meant. “But sometimes we’ve gotta make sacrifices for the ones we love.” I choked down my tears as I slowly backed away from Huey.
“Vi…”
“Say hi to him for me, okay?” I gave him a watery smile.
“Violet please-” Huey pleaded, reaching for me, I pulled away and raced out of the hallway, running straight towards Cipher’s main lab.
Once I got there, I silently looked through everything, searching for any evidence of Dewey’s presence.
That’s when I heard his voice.
