Gangster Falls

Wendy 'Axer' Corduroy

Dipper's pov

We wake up in a hotel, with me holding my shiv, Mabel is sprawled out over me like a starfish, Stan is fast asleep in the chair, and Ford is cleaning his 7mm. I wake all of them up, and we head out. Stan goes to put some money on the counter, and a flapper says, "It's on the house. After all, we all want to stay on Demon Eyes and Dollface's good sides, don't we?" Stan nods, and asks if Wendy is in. She says, "I don't know. How 'bout you go find out yourself?" And with that, we walk out, cases and all. We go to a safe house, where a flivver is waiting. We put our cases in, and 30 minutes, we get to her place. Wendy 'Axer' Corduroy got her name by killing her entire family, excluding her father, with an ax. She did this when she was 10, and she ran to the only living relative she had left. Her father. Her father is Manly Dan, but by the time she found him, he was pinched, and was put in the slammer. She claimed she was a long lost niece so that she could speak to her father. He left her the deed to the house, and by the time he broke out, she had made her name known. She had helped me and Mabel get around and find Stan and Ford. She's the reason why we are still here. She was our age then, so she should be our age now too. We walk into the house, and we see her. She's wearing an off-white button down shirt, brown trousers and suspenders. She has one of her legs up on the armrests, and she is cleaning her pistol. She looks up and says, "Dip? Mabel?! I thought you guys couldn't come back? And, and, and..." we look at each other, and say, "Well, at first we couldn't because of Ma and Pops. They started to beat us, and while we were 'locked up' we would sneak to our friend 8-Ball's house. He would supply us with weapons and we started to stock- pile. When Bill had possessed me, it brought out my secret, violent side out. When I got mad, Bill would take over, and start hurting. We had been planning on killing Ma and Pops, and it happened. Ma and Pops had an argument with me, and that night, we cleaned our guns, and shot Ma and Pops while they were asleep. We didn't clean the blood, but we still have the weapon, and cleaned everything else. We ran all the way here." And Wendy just stared at us. Suddenly, she shuddered, and said, "Dipper, Mabel, did they give you guys gangster names?" And we both said, "Yeah, they did. Mine is 'Demon Eyes' and Mabel's is 'Dollface'. Why?" And she said, "I asked because you can't do jacksquat without a gangster name." Ford and Stan are just standing outside, and we ask Wendy why they haven't come in. She says, "It's a gang thing. You see, Ford punched a good friend of mine and called him a fish while they were in the slammer. As you know, Soos is no newbie when it comes to prison. But when they hit Soos, it sent me into a rage. Let's just say, if they set foot in here, they won't be coming back." With that, we tell Wendy we're going to pay a visit to Soos. She then shoos Mabel out of the room, and grabs my hand. I look down at her, and she starts pulling me toward a door. She opens the door, and I see weapons everywhere. She gives a 7mm, and a big Tommy. She says, "It's on the house. Every gangster needs a weapon of choice, right?" Right when she says this, I pull out my shiv. I tell her, "Thanks dollface, but I got my weapon right here. Maybe Mabel wants one. And I grab the Tommy, and turn towards the door. Right when this happens, Wendy grabs the back of my shirt collar, and pulls me around and kisses me. Damn, she's a definite bearcat! She lets me go and says, "Meet me at The Shack around 10:00, capeesh?" And I say, "Whatevah ya say dollface." She kisses me again, and I walk out. When I walk out the front door, Mabel has her 7mm out, Stan has his pistol, and Ford has his rifle. Mabel yells out to me,"Hey, Dip,get ovah here! Fordsy here has somethin to show ya!" And we walk over. It turns out, he fixed a flivver, and now it's a breezer. I yell out, "Let's blouse!" And we take off. Soon, we find ourselves at Soos 'Border Breaker' Ramirez's house. He has goons along the perimeter of the house, and once they see the guys that beat up their boss-man, they go into goon mode. I must've shot at least 12 before Soos walks out onto the porch. He sees me and Mabel and yells out, "Dipper! Mabel!" And we walk up to him. He pulls us in close, and says to us, "You wanna go have a whoopee? Because I know of a flapper place that will take Mabel in real quick." And I say, "No, me and Mabel are a package deal. She shoots, I stab. She pleasures, I finish them off. She's a valuable asset to my little plan." And she says, "So, are still blowing bushwa up everyone's asses, or do you remember our little talk?" He says, "I'm not so sure that was a talk. You held me at gunpoint, and told me if you find out I'm spitting out bushwa, that you will personally blow my brains across the room." I look at Mabel, impressed. I turn to her and say, "You threatened to murder Soos Ramirez, and got away with it?" She said, "Not so much. This all happened when you made that deal with Bill. I had to clean the crime scenes for a week before the fuzz showed up. I almost got pinched. Pinched, Dipper!" And I say, "But why would that matter. You remember those other two times we did get pinched, but we have our own gangs there. We were living like kings and queens. I miss those days." With that, Soos says, "Are the twins here?" And we say,"Yeah, they're the ones that brought us here. Why?" And he runs outside. Wendy is now there, and they're fighting off the goons. Well, what's left. We get in the fight and Soos breaks it up. The twins leave, so Soos and Wendy take us under their wing. We end up going to this restraunt and they start singing and dancing on the floor, so we join in. I twirl Mabel, and she starts dancing by herself. By the end of the song, some of the flappers take her backstage, giggling. They tell all of us to sit here, and wait. An hour later, Mabel comes out, with her hair in fingerwaves, and in a flapper dress. Her dress is a dark burgundy color, and covered in pearls. She comes out with 12 different dresses, and I reach for the mazuma 8-Ball gave us. They turn to me and say, "No, don't worry. It's another flapper's dresses. Poor girl. Got shot right in the noodle." They hang their heads down, but then shot right back up with smiles on their faces. They say, "Mabel," but Mabel interupts them saying, "Call me Dollface. Everyone does." And with that, they continue. "Dollface, you are welcome to come here any time you please. We understand you're not a 24/7 flapper, because of your brother, but we hold nothing against that. What we're trying to say is, come anytime. We're your family now." And Mabel walks up to me, hips swaying. She says in her most seductive voice, "How do I look Dipper?" And I say, "Y-you look a-ama-amazing." She swipes a finger across my chin, and she gives me shivers. She turns to the other girls and says, "I can see how you like to do this." And all they do is smile and giggle. I tell Mabel, "Be careful. They've turned you into a sheba. Use this power wisely." And she then asks me, the girls are having a whoopee and invited me. Can I go?" And I look at them, look back and huff. I tell her, "Fine, but don't take any wooden nickels. And if someone says any bushwa, call them out on it." I turn to the other girls, and say, "Just don't give her a Demon Eyes. She'll pull a Daniel Boone." And with that, they squeal and take her backstage. Twenty minutes later, I drop off her case, and leave. That night, my gang and I walk back to the Shack and I order a Demon Eyes, and get ossified. Mostly because I need something to make me feel better about this whole scenario. I feel hands on my arms and feel my body being dragged to my secret room behind the Shack. I pass out before my head hits the pillow.
