Mabel pines got punched awake by a glaring blue light and a familiar triangle figure arising in her dream. She gasped as
she awoke, breathing heavily. She looked at the clock. It was 3:00 AM. She looked at dipper across the room, still sound asleep. Mabel thought as she slipped out of bed. It had been only a few months after they had left gravity falls, and they definitely hadn't forgotten about any of it yet. Mabel walked outside of her home, still in only her pajamas and some socks, she sat on the porch and stared at the moon. When summer had ended, it seemed that all the weirdness had left her and dipper alone. But as the moon slowly started turning in to an eye, Mabel wasn't so sure about that anymore. She wiped her eyes, thinking she was hallucinating, But when the eye didn't go away, her eyes widened and she started to get up and run towards the door. "WAIT shooting star!" She heard from behind her. The familiar voice made her shiver. She slowly turned around in disbelief, just to see exactly what she was hoping wasn't there. "Bill." She said. "OK, ok, I get it. I tried to destroy your whole universe, but I changed." Bill said. "Yeah, sure buddy, YOU TRIED TO KILL US! Your not fooling me with this bullshit bill." She says snapping at him because of the trauma that bill had induced. "WOAH, Woah, shooting star, don't get so hasty, I dont have the power to destroy your universe anymore, and if I wanted to kill you right now, I would have done it already." Bill said in a playful tone, clearly not matching Mabels mood. Mabel stared at him with disbelief and disgust, as she opened the door and closed it on Bill with a slam. Mabel rubbed her head, hyperventilating. "I'm just imagining that, right?" She walked into her and dippers room, laying in her bed. she tried to go back to sleep, but was to busy thinking. She looked at Dipper, but noticed that he was stressed in his sleep, clearly having a bad dream. Mabel walked up to his bed and softly shook him awake. Dipper woke in a cold sweat, looking at Mabel with wide eyes. He started to say something, but Mabel stopped him before he could. "Bill?" she asked, tense. Dipper looked at her knowingly. "But how? Why?-" Dipper started to panic as he startled and suddenly stopped talking. His eyes opened even wider, but he wasn't looking at Mabel, he was looking behind her. "Dipper?" "Maybe you should hear me out." A voice said from behind Mabel, way to friendly for the tone.
