At the shack, Mabel and I got dressed for the dance. She took the bathroom first, so I was forced to wait, and constantly check the time. When she stepped out, she was dressed in a long, light blue dress with a white sweater. Her hair was straightened and she had a lot of makeup on. My eyes got huge and she laughed.

"Stop staring at me! You're acting like a total pervert." She walked down the stairs and I entered the bathroom, holding my clothes. I pulled off my sweatshirt and t-shirt. Turning on the water, I stripped out of my pants and boxers. I got into the shower and let the warm water roll down my bare chest before washing my hair and body. I made sure to use plenty of soap. I didn't want to smell bad. After my shower I dried off and put on my clothes, boxers, black pants, a white button down shirt, and a black tie. After I did my hair I topped off my outfit with a black fedora and a pair of black sunglasses.

"Hey Dippin' sauce! Get down here." Mabel shouted from the bottom of the stairs. I threw on my socks and shoes and ran down the stairs. Mabel stared at me with her jaw dropped. I put my finger under her jaw and closed her mouth.

"You'll catch flies Mabel." Stan walked into the room, taking a sip of Pitt. He looked at us and did a spit take. The peach soda got all over the room.

"Who are you two and what did you do with my family?" He joked. "Come on. I want a picture." He took out a camera and snapped a shot of us, linking arms. Just then, a knock came from the door. I walked over to it and opened it. Chase was standing there holding flowers and wearing kaki pants, a white button down shirt, and a light blue tie. His hair had obviously been combed because it didn't look half bad.

"Um hey Dipper. Nice suit." He said pointing his flowers at me.

"Thanks. Your suit isn't half bad either." I let him in, and Mabel squealed when she saw him. I was a little confused.

"Oh my God! You look AMAZING!" She said, hugging him. Stan snapped a picture, and then walked to a coffee table to grab his keys. We all piled into the Stanmobile, and drove to Emma's. We took a quick stop first so I could grab some flowers. I got some red and white roses and we were off. Emma's house was a big brick house with a white roof. I stepped out of the car and, after checking my watch, walked up to her door. I reached my hand up and slowly knocked. After a few seconds, a women opened up the door. She had blonde hair, with a few streaks of grey. I assumed it was Emma's mother.

"Oh you must be Dipper. Emma said you were cute but I never expected you to be this good looking. Please come in. Emma will be down in just a minute." She started. I stepped into her house and took off my hat and sunglasses. I looped my sunglasses on my pocket. "Emma. Dipper is here. Are you ready yet?" We could hear the noise of a door closing and at the top of the stairs stood Emma in a red and white dress that went down to her knees. She wore white heels and her hair was done in a braid. She descended down the stairs, and all I could do was stare with a huge toothy grin on my face.

"Wow. Y-you look beautiful." I said reaching my hand out to help her down the last few stairs. She took my hand and looked at the flowers.

"Aw. Flowers? You shouldn't have." She said smiling.

"Oh these? These are for your mom. I thought that since I'm here I could ask her out." I joked. Emma giggled as I gave her the flowers with a grin.

"Pictures!" Her mom sang as she held up a camera. I stood behind Emma and put my hands on her waist and she put her hands on mine. We heard a click and then her mom put down the camera. "You two have fun!" She said, watching us get into the car.

"Wait a second. You're like really pretty. Dipper how did you get her to say yes to you?" Stan asked looking at Emma in her seat. Emma laughed at the obvious joke.

"Actually. I asked Dipper." She said taking my hand. Stan's jaw dropped.

"You're kidding!" Stan said, turning the car on and driving off. He drove us to the school and waited for us to all get out of his car. We walked down the sidewalk to the building. Chase and I, being the gentlemen we were, held open the doors for the girls. They smiled as they walked in. The auditorium was all decked out in streamers, balloons, and colorful lights. The main lights were dimmed low, and music was playing through the speakers. In the corner of the room were refreshments. It was a table with punch, and snacks and water. "Water" I thought. "That's how I will spot the fish person." I was about to walk over to the refreshments, but Emma took my arm and led me to the dance floor. There was a really upbeat song playing and I began to dance to it with her.

"Sorry about how bad of a dancer I am." I said, pulling on my collar. She laughed and took my hands. She danced with me and led me through a few easy steps. I danced them and we had fun. "Do you want some punch?" I said laughing at the total cliché.

"Yeah I could use some punch." I walked over to the refreshments table and got us both some punch. I checked the people there but no one was getting water. So I walked back over to Emma and gave her the cup. "So...are you having fun?" She asked me. I was still staring at the table. I jerked my head back at her and smiled.

"Yeah. I really am having fun. Sorry if I'm a bit spaced out." I answered, taking a sip of the frothy juice. A slow song came on and a lot of people left the floor. But I took Emma's hand and walked her to the middle. I put my hands on her waist and she wrapped her arms around my neck. We swayed to the beat and Emma looked up at me. I leaned into a kiss and she kissed me back. I pulled away and looked into her eyes, smiling. She moved her hand up to the back of my neck and pulled me into another kiss. I kissed her back and the kiss became deeper. I felt like if it would've been a movie then the camera would have been circling us at the moment.

I pulled away and looked up. People were looking but I didn't care. I looked over at the refreshments table and saw the guy from the cafeteria. He was gulping down a bottle of water.

"I'll be right back." I said to Emma, running over to the table. The guy dropped the bottle and ran out the door.

"Dipper! Wait!" Emma said chasing me. I didn't pay attention to her, I just followed the guy out the door. He ran behind a corner, and I followed him. When I turned it, it was standing there. The skin that it was wearing was in a heap on the ground. I nearly vomited from it. The monster looked almost human, but it was blue and had scales, and where the ears should be, there were fins. It's eyes were yellow and black and they looked cold. It growled at me, showing me it's razor sharp teeth, and broke through a man hole. Not thinking, I followed him into the sewer. It dove into the water and began to swim in the shallow water. I followed on the side wall, out of the water. It jumped out of the water, and with one swing, sliced my arm. I jerked back in pain, hitting the wall. The fish person dove back into the water. I put my arm on the wall and felt a chord. I looked down and saw it was an electric chord.

"Only Known Weaknesses: salt, fire, electricity." I mumbled to my self as I pulled on the chord. It stretched away from the wall and a smile stretched across my face. I cut the chord with a pocket knife from my pocket. Sparks jumped from the wires as I brought it closer to the water. I dropped it into the water and heard a shriek. The creature jumped out of the water, it was laying on the ground, not moving. I stepped closer to it. Suddenly it's arm flew up, slicing across my chest. Then it's arm went limp and it died. I gripped my wounded chest in agony. Then I used all of my strength to drag the corpse to the hole, and up to the surface.
