Drifting Stars #Wattys2018

into the pit

"I don't know about this Stanley, it seems....dangerous." Ford mused nervously staring at his brother.

"Sixer, you were stuck in a portal for 30 years, you fought a demon, and your telling me your scared of a hole?" Stan asked stifling a laugh.

"No, not scared Stanley, I'm just not exactly sure that it's safe." Ford argued.

"Don't worry Mr. Pines, it's not really that bad." Soos replied.

"Yeah Great Uncle Ford, it's for Mabel, please?" Dipper pleaded.

Ford sighed. "Alright, but we should all jump together for safety reasons."

They joined hands. "For Mabel?"
Dipper began.

"For Mabel!" They shouted jumping into the pit of blackness.

*Cue theme song*

"Ahhhhhh!" Screamed Ford.

"Um, Ford?" Stan said.
"Were not falling anymore, just floating, you can um stop crushing my hand now..."

Ford quickly released his brothers hand. "Hehe, sorry Stanley..."

"So....where are the journals?" Wendy asked.

"Hm, the should be floating around here somewhere, maybe we need to keep going." "Any way to make this thing fo faster?" Ford asked.

"Nope, just gotta sit back and relax till we get shot back up."
Stan replied attempting to lean back but ended up falling floating backwards and flipping upside down.
"Can someone help me up?"

Dipper and Wendy laughed before helping Stan flip over.
They sat in silence for a while.

"So, um how long exactly were you stuck down here?" Ford asked.

"About a half hour." Dipper replied.

"Ah I see...what did you do for those 30 minutes?"

"We told stories of adventures dude!" "Made time go faster." Soos answered.

"Hey, why don't you and Wendy tell a story Great Uncle Ford?" Dipper suggested.

"Me, tell a story?" "Well, I suppose I could tell you about one of my encounters while in the portal." Ford agreed.

They nodded exitedly. Ford got into a confortable position and began to tell his story.

"I was in the M Dimension....An extremly frustrating journey."
"Everything, and I mean everything was an M!" "If you think thats irritiating, you should see the alphabet!" "It's just the letter M 26 times!" "They constanly told me to 'Mave a Monderful Mime, ugh I was ready to be ablierated 10 minutes in!" "That, was the most exasperating dimensión I've ever been stuck in!" Ford ended his story.

"Woah!" "That's crazy dude!" Soos exclaimed.

"Yeah, sounds like a nightmare relm..." Stan agreed.

Dipper sighed. "The M dimension reminds me of Mabel." "I hope she's ok."

"Me too dork, but your sister is stronger than she looks, I'm sure she's fine." Wendy replied.

"Hey Wendy, you got any cool adventure stories?" Stan asked.

Wendy thought for a minute. "Yeah, I do." "I was out camping with my dad and 3 brothers about a year ago." She began.
"When we were sleeping, I heard a growl....I grabbed my ax ready to kill whatever it was... And do you know what it was?"

"A bear?" Soos asked.

"A dog?" Stan inquired.

"Old man Mcgucket?" Guessed Dipper.
