dipper x Oc

chapter 9 a jungle or a maze

The group wanders for hours through the tall trees and long grass in complete silence when finally Crystal opens her mouth "alright I'm done walking in circles we're lost." everyone stops to stare at the obviously troubled girl "What do you mean were lost" Pacifica sighs "at first I thought we were making progress but when we passed this tree for the second time I purposely dropped my bret as a marker that we've already gone this way and GUESS WHAT I JUST FOUND" she picks up the bret clearly upset after seeing her father "h-hey don't let him get to you stay in control right." dipper whispers into her ear his warm breath grazing her delicate cheek making her knees feel weak "ya I guess... let's set up camp there's that pond we passed not to long ago I'll go try to find some fish and gather water you guys set up shelter and a fire." She walks away "aren't you gonna go after her" mabel inquires "not yet after what happened in the mind scape she'll need time to think alone" they all bow their heads knowing what he said is true and begin doing as they were instructed, meanwhile Crystal reaches the pond it connected to the beach so when the tides raised it would gather fish and plants of every variety. She looked into the pond longingly and gently collapsed as she sobbed into her folded arms "why take them why not just take me" she asks the thin air above her head "wheres the fun in that~" Bill asks mockingly " shut up and go away you stupid Dorito." she was to upset to care that she was taking insult advice from soos he chuckles to himself "oh my darling but I would never want to leave yo-" his sentence is cut short as a blast of silver shoots off the thumb of his right hand "I SAID GO!" Crystal screams her silver curls glowing perfectly in the jungles shade "you ungratful brat you will come back to me I know you will"
