'This is it. We're finally here. I'm sure Bill Cipher knows we are coming. Stan, Mabel, Grenda, Candy and I will distract Bill so that Jaco, Soos and Dipper can enter Bill's lair. I will give you two devices I've made. One can detect humans and the other will locate the crystal,' Ford said, giving the two devices to Soos.

'Dipper will go and rescue Pacifica. Jaco and Soos will get the crystal back. McGucket will stay on the boat to finish the gun. You have your teams; you now know your missions. This won't be easy. Bill is powerful, but if we work together, we will beat him. Be careful. Look out for each other. This is the fight of our lives. And we're going to win. Whatever it takes. Good luck,' Ford continue.

'Pacifica we are coming,' I whispered.

They anchored the boat and lowered the dinghies. Mabel was surprised that the island looked and felt tropical. It should have belonged to a warmer climate and not been stuck in the middle of the freezing Arctic Ocean.

'Gruncle Ford why is this island so warm?' she asked.

'It's surrounded by magic which makes it warmer than its surroundings.'

'Good, because I don't want to fight in freezing cold weather.'

Ford gave them all walkie-talkies so that they could communicate with each other.

'Does everyone have their walkie talkies? Check the batteries, please. If they are low, replace them immediately before we head out,' Ford ordered.

We nodded.

'I've also installed tracking chips in them. I will be able to locate you in case of an emergency. I'll send help immediately. Good? Let's go.' Ford said, lowering himself over the side and stepping into the dinghy below. The others followed suit. Two dinghies approached the island where the final battle would take place.

The bay was relatively calm, and they soon made landfall. They got out and dragged the dinghies up the beach. Even the water surrounding the island was warm.

They walked into the dense foliage together. Ford led them to the cave where they had found the coordinates to the crystal months before. Bill was waiting for them.

'Well, well look who decided to show up. I...' before Bill could finish, Mabel interrupted.

'Shut the hell up and taste my fury!' she screamed. The flamethrower spat. Bill moved quickly, but not fast enough. She burned the left side of his face to a crisp. His eye popped and sizzled.

'You bitch! Do you have any idea how long it will take to regenerate my eye? Especially when I don't have my full power back yet?' Bill roared.

He mumbled a few words and laughed.

'Deal with this, bitch.'

Clones appeared; to Mabel they looked shockingly familiar.

'Dipper's clones? How did you know?' she said.

'I didn't know. I simply picked someone you would hesitate to kill,' Bill answered.

'It's a long story, one which we do not have the time for tight now. I won't hesitate to kill the clones. They're not my brother.'

'A mere distraction, but when my eye is fully regenerated you will all be dead!' Bill shrieked.

'Be careful. These things are essentially lifeless, and their sole purpose is to kill us,' Ford mentioned.

'Bring it on!' Grenda yelled.

Ford contacted Soos via the walkie-talkie.

'Bill's distracted. Go now, Soos,' he ordered.

'Ok, dude,' came the reply.

Soos looked at Jaco and me. We nodded and sneaked into the cave behind Bill's back.
