'SEE YOU NEXT SUMMER!'

Dipper re-read the note, a year later. He smiled. He cant wait to see Ford, Stan, Wendy, Soos and the others again back at Gravity Falls, he had so many happy memories there, and he just wished that summer is forever. Dippers parents,  agreed to make it so that every summer, Dipper and his sister, Mabel go to Gravity Falls every summer, because it was clear they liked it there. Dipper finally finished packing his things, and he was 100% ready.  "Dipper! Mabel! Come down here!" his mother called, and so, he grabbed his things, and went. Dipper rushed down the stairs, and once he got downstairs, he noticed Mabel already there, with his mom and Waddles. "Alright kids, get to the car!" Mabel rushed past Dipper. "Sorry!" She yelled, before she opened the front door, and went. Dipper decided to walk. Mabel left the door open, so it was faster for him to get there. His mom unlocked the car, and Dipper and Mabel got to their seats. Dipper's Mom turned on the radio, while they were in the car, and about 10 minutes later, they arrived to the bus stop. Mabel opened the door, and so did Dipper. His mom, looked at the two and smiled. "Good luck! See you in two months! Love you!" and she drove off. Dipper sat at the nearest bench, while Mabel was with Waddles, happily singing to him some songs. Dipper sighed. He grabbed out a novel from his book titled "GhostBumps!" and began to read. He must have read for awhile, as his sister was talking to him a few minutes (or maybe more) later. "Dipper! C'mon or the bus will miss us!" His sister called. Dipper sighed. "Sorry Mabel, I-" He was at loss of words. "C'mon! Dipper!!" Dipper noticed his sister, Mabel was also excited, she was jumping up and down, and she was shaking. Dipper heard the bus, and he and Mabel grabbed their things, and went in. Mabel, as entering the bus suddenly gasped. "Waddles! I-I forgot him!" She rushed, just before the bus could close its doors. The bus driver scoffed. "Young lady! No pets allowed!" Mabel, however didn't care, as she went down the stairs to grab Waddles from the curb. "Please sir! Make a exception! You don't want to hurt his feelings, do you!?" The driver sighed. "Fine." Mabel squeaked in excitement. "Yay!!" Dipper couldn't wait any longer. "C'mon, Mabel. Also thank you sir!" Dipper and Mabel went to a seat near the end of the bus, and sat down. and so, the bus started to run. Dipper again, brought up his novel, but just before he could start reading, his sister pinched him. "Dipper..!! Don't read in the car- or bus! You know what happened last time you did that!" Dipper sighed. "Fine." Mabel warmly smiled "Besides, you have the window seat! You can look outside!" Mabel snatched his novel, and put it back in his bag. Then, she grabbed her bag and set it on the floor, and she did the same for Dipper's bag, too. "Fine, but this ride is very long, so...." Dipper starred at the window. "So, Mabel. What will you do when we get back?" Mabel giggled. "Hmm...! Hanging out with Candy and Grenda... Catching up on Grunkle Stan and Ford's adventures.. Uhm and most importantly," Mabel cleared her throat. "Having fun! What about you, Dipper?" Dipper thought for a moment. "Uhm.. I'm not sure, Maybe perhaps I can investigate some things with Great Uncle Ford,  and maybe check on the Bill statue?" Mabel giggled. "Kind of boring, but I'll take it!" Dipper laughed "Hey! Research isn't boring!" Mabel giggled. "Did you know, that I have made more than 1004 sweaters this year?! Yeah, crazy! I made them all for our friends! And for me! Hey! I also bought some things to make MORE sweaters!" Dipper chuckled. "Alright Mabel.. Alright.." Dipper yawned. "Mabel, I will be taking a nap, wake me up when we're there, okay?" Mabel smiled "Okay!" Dipper closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

Dipper was back at the mystery shack, but something was off. He called for Mabel, but no response. He called for Stan, again no response.  No one was home. Not even Mabel, or Stan. Dipper was all alone, in the shack. The lights were off, and no matter how hard Dipper tried to turn them on, nothing worked. It was just pitch black, other than a candle Dipper was holding. Dipper went downstairs, where again, it was dark and lonely. He opened the door to the outside, and so Dipper decided to go outside.. for some reason. He closed the door, and decided his mission is to go to the forest. Dipper walked to the forest,  unaware why.  As Dipper walked with the candle light, he headed to the spot where  the statue of Bill Cipher is. However, where it was, it was gone. Dipper was deeply frightened, this could only mean trouble. Where was Bill? Is this something bad?. "BILL?!" he shouted. However, all that answered... was laughter.

Dipper couldn't breathe. He was panicking. "NO-NONO!" He dropped his candle, and it landed on a tree, and so, the tree went ablaze. Dipper was shocked, and as he watched the whole forest burn to the ground, he again heard laughter. Dipper took a deep breath. "Show yourself!" But the laughter got stronger, and stronger. "Pine Tree.... I'm... back!.." Dipper looked up to the sky, and saw a triangle shape, with a top hat, and limbs. "Wh-Bill! How- I thought we defeated you!" Bill laughed. "Oh Pine Tree, its not that easy to defeat me. The gambler, Shooting Star, you and Sixer just had a lucky break.. But I promise.. that wont be happening anymore..."

"AHH!" Dipper screamed. He was awake. That was just a dream. But.. it seemed so real... "Silly Dipper, you were talking in your sleep again!" Mabel giggled. "Anyway, we are here!" Dipper sighed. He grabbed his bag, and Mabel grabbed Waddles and her bag. "Gravity Falls!! It is good to be back!"  Dipper jumped in surprise. "H-HU-Huh?!" Mabel looked at Dipper in confusion "You good bro?" Dipper laughed nervously. "Yeah, yeah." Dipper stood up, and so did Mabel. They walked past the aisles, and headed towards the exit. Dipper looked at the bus driver. "Thank you!" Dipper said to the driver, and the driver warmly smiled. "You're welcome!" As he went down the stairs, he saw Ford, Stan and Soos, and Dipper and Mabel ran to hug the three. "I missed you so much Grunkle Stan!" Mabel screamed. Stan chuckled. "I missed you too, Pumpkin." Ford looked at Dipper. "So, how was school?" Dipper sighed. "Pretty average.. I guess.." Dipper looked at Stan, and he saw Stan carrying Waddles, and petting Waddles as if its a cat. "Alright, we got the kids. Lets go." Dipper didn't catch Ford saying that, however that doesn't matter. Dipper knew he had to tell someone about his dream, because its clearly important, but who?.. While Dipper was walking in the forest with the others, he saw so many small animals crawl around, and so much life. Back home in California, however, there wasn't that much animals as here, or inf act much clean air, so Dipper knew he had to enjoy his time here. 

Soos turned around to Stan, Ford, Mabel and Dipper. "Alright dudes, we are here. Even though i run this place now, you can sleep the same places as last year. However for Stan and Ford, I'll probably see what places there is. Well, you little dudes can go! " Mabel grinned. "Thanks Soos!" Dipper ran to the shack, and Mabel opened the door for Dipper. "Thanks!" Dipper and Mabel raced to their room, and once they made it, it was almost like nothing changed from last year, expect Dipper and Mabels absence and things. "Well, what are you waiting for! Lets begin unpacking!" Dipper carefully opened his suitcase, and started to decorate his side of the room, and just make it how it was last year,  just like Mabel. "Mabel..?" Mabel, who was applying stickers to her wall, turned around. "Yeah?" Dipper nervously stuttered. "There's something i got to tell you.. but.. keep it a secret, k?" Mabel chuckled "My lips are sealed!" Dipper sighed. "I think.. I think Bill is back.. I had a dream on the bus, about the forest here burning down, and Bill.. Bill said he's back!" Mabel looked at Dipper in confusion. "Oh.. But I thought we defected Bill?" Dipper gulped. "Well... he's back.." Mabel's eyes widened in fear. "Dipper! We got to warn Grunkle Ford and Stan then!" Dipper nodded. "However, lets just finish unpacking first." Mabel nodded. 

"Well then... I say we head straight to the statue, Mabel and Dipper.." Ford worriedly exclaimed. Dipper sighed. "Thank you Grunkle Ford.."
