Summer with the Pine Twins: Summer's Coming to an End

Northwest Mansion Noir: Part 4

Dipper's p.o.v.

"So wait a minute...The Northwests knew this haunting was coming?" (y/n) asks in disbelief and I chime in with "And they tricked us into helping them to avoid ghostly justice? We'll be right back," We storm up to the manor and push the doors open as I shout "NORTHWESTS! You've got some explaining to do!" Mr. and Mrs. Northwest give us a blank stare when Pacifica excitedly runs into the room. "Dipper! (y/n)! You came back!" We glare at her and (y/n) tells her "You lied to us, all of you did." "All you had to do was let the town's folk into the party and you would've lifted the curse! But you made us do your dirty work instead!"

I accused, glaring at Mr. Northwest as he approached. "Look at who you're talking to boy. I'm hosting a party for the most powerful people in the world. Do you think they come here to rub elbows with your kind?" He asks and (y/n) asks in an annoyed tone "My kind?" "I was right about you all along, you're just as bad as your parents. Another link in the world's worst chain."

I tell Pacifica who starts to tear up and apologize. "I'm sorry! They made me, I should have told you but-" She gets cut off by her father ringing a bell and she falls silent. "Enjoy the party, it's the last time you and your kind will ever come," We start to storm off in embarrassment when we were stopped by a monkey butler offering us food. "No, no! Those aren't for them."

We had left the party and was now standing at the edge of the woods while (y/n) and I prepared to banish the ghost while I grumbled to myself about letting us get tricked. "Stupid Northwests making us do their exorcism for them..." "Ok, Dipper, it's ready," (y/n) tells me and I sigh as I begin to recite the spell when the lumberjack starts pleading to me. "Dipper. Dipper! Please let me get my vengeance on the Northwests, you hate them as much as I!" "Hey, I feel you, it's just my sister is in there." "And a lot of people are in there that don't have anything to do with your hatred toward the Northwests," (y/n) chimes in before I continue what I was saying. "It's just that you seem a little unstable man," He looks down glumly asking "Very well boy. Then before you banish my soul may these tired lumber eyes gaze upon the trees one final time?"

I look at (y/n) who shrugs stating "I don't see why not," I nod and turn the mirror to the trees when suddenly the handle burns my hand and I drop the mirror, waving my hand to ease the pain. "Dipper! Are you ok?!" (y/n) asks looking over my hand when we watch the ghost fly out of the mirror. No! The mirror must've shattered! We watch in panic as he heads straight for Northwest manor. "Oh no! Mabel!" I shout as we start running toward the manor.

Mabel's p.o.v.

Candy and I spot Marius at the buffet table and I excitedly approach him. "Hi, I'm Mabel. So Australia huh? Do you guys eat kangaroo meat over there or are they strictly pets?" He gives me a confused look as he corrects me. "I am from Austria," I laugh as I tag Candy and walk out of the awkward situation. I quickly collect myself and shove Candy out of the way. "Hi! If you were a boat do you know what kind you'd be? A dreamboat that's what kind," I try to flirt when Candy shoves me out of the way and we start arguing about how tagging works. That's when we hear Grenda clear her throat as she glares at the two of us asking "What exactly was all that? You were flirting with Marius without me?" "We're sorry Grenda it's just that..." Candy trails off and I tell her "Comes off as a little intense," Grenda's cheeks flare up in embarrassment.
