Monster Falls

Gruncle Ford

Once Dipper was finally able to escape Mable's antics, he trotted down the stairs and to the vending machine. He typed in the code and the door clicked, signifying it was open. He pulled the side of the machine and it swung open to his touch. He started down the dark stairs where his great uncle was surely hard at work, trying to find a cure.

"Ahh Dipper my boy, what is it you need?" He asked through the pencil in his sharp fangs for teeth. Dipper could tell he had adjusted to his paws, as he used his mouth for just about everything, only using his paws to walk, or occasionally hold a book or paper. 

"Oh, uh, it's just that, well..." Dipper stuttered.

"Spit it out Dipper," Ford said, scribbling down something on some notebook paper and dashing to a computer and typing something down.

"Well you see, last night I had a dream and, uh, Bill Cipher may have been in it," He said saying the last part.

Ford's ear twitched and he looked up from a book and spun around to face Dipper. 

"What did you say?!" He practically yelled. "What was he doing in your dream?! What did he want?!"

Dipper rubbed his arm nervously. "Well he was human, and um, he said he might be loosing his powers, and he was being forced into our world.."

Ford just stared at him. "So what did he want?" He repeated. 

"He said he knew a cure, but he couldn't do it himself, and then I kinda woke up.."

Ford scratched his chin. "This is quite unexpected.. We might have to wait for Bill to find us first, perhaps he still had the cure," he concluded, scratching something out of his journal and scribbling something else down. 

"So what does this mean?" Dipper asked.

"It means we're waiting for Bill," Ford said heading towards the elevator to go back up. "Come on, we'll be able to hear the door better from upstairs."
