Partners In Crime (Wendip Fanfiction)

Chapter fourteen: "Boss?"

Dipper's (POV)

After dropping Robbie off at the police station, me and Mabel were on the road again to the address of Robbie's so called 'boss'. Before we left, Robbie handed me a piece of paper with the address on it. It was just turning dark when we finally came to the location. It was an old, beaten down building near the edge of town. Much like the mining factory from the other night. I pulled out my flash light, and Mabel spoke up.

"You sure this is the place, Dipper?" Mabel asked me.

"Yeah, Robbie wrote down that this was the place." I replied. Mabel nodded and pulled out her flash light. I took a deep breath, and opened the big, metal door.

*CREEK*

I turned on my flash light, and looked around. I then opened the door more, to let Mabel in. The place was dark and ominous. It gave me chills down my spine, something was wrong. I then felt something grab my shoulder, making me jump.

"Ahhh!" I shouted.

"Sorry! Sorry! That was me!" Mabel frowned. I nodded and continued to look around. I shinned my flash light near the ceiling, and spotted chains hanging from the ceiling. I gulped. All of a sudden, I spot a light in the back of the dark room. I raised my eye brow in confusion. Apparently Mabel saw it too, and held my arm.

"Dipper, what is that?" She asked frighten.

"I don't know, but I'm not waiting to find out." I walk up to the light, with Mabel still holding on to me. As I walked closer to the light, I noticed that candles started to light all around us in a row, leading to the light in the back of the room. This got my attention. I was afraid, but I pushed forward. Finally I reached the back of the room, and saw that the light was also a lit candle on a desk.

"Well, well, well. Dipper, and Mabel Pines. I've been expecting y'all." A voice said out of no where.

"How do you know our names, who are you?" Just then, a chair from behind the desk spun around, revealing a small, white haired boy, wearing a white suit and tie.

"My name is, Gideon Gleeful. The top jewel thief in all of Gravity Falls. I've heard so much about you two, being the new cops and all. But I must say, for cop rookies, you're pretty good. Too good if you ask me. As you may already know, I'm the one who plans all the robberies, and I can't have two pesky little cops shoving their noses where the don't belong!" I was shocked, a nine year old boy is the boss? Didn't see that coming.

"Gideon, why would you do this? You're only a kid, and yet you make teenagers do your bidding?" I asked shocked.

"Let me explain something to you Mr. Pines. In the life of crime, anyone is fair game. Meaning, even if anyone wanted to be a thug, they could! And anyone who can plan out the crimes, is in charge. Which is why I'm the boss around here. The teenagers do whatever they're told just to get their hands on the priceless artefacts we steal." He explained.

"But, what do you want with us?" I asked.

"It's simple really. Bring her in!" He shouted. I was confused until I saw Wendy there tied with rope and gagged with duck tape on her mouth. She still had her bandages on her body, which made me worry. She was still injured.

"Wendy!"

"So here's the deal Mr. Pines. I heard you had one of my best thugs arrested today, if you and your sister replace his role, Wendy here will live. But if you refuse..."

*SNAP*

He snapped his fingers, and one of his goons held a knife at Wendy's throat. Wendy had tears down her face, I felt awful. I knew she was scared and I couldn't let her die. I knew what I had to do...
