The rest of the week blew by quickly. Soon it was Friday and the fight was coming. Dipper and Pacifica spent most the week out and about together. Mainly because Pacifica wanted too. In case he lost and she went with her father. But dipper was assuring her that he wouldn't lose. Mabel seemed to be ignoring dipper now completely. And somehow half the town knew about the boxing match and came to the local gym to watch. Preston had booked the fight there claiming that if he was to fight a commoner it had to at least be in "fine establishment". The fight was to take place at 7:00 pm. Currently dipper was in 7th period. He felt calm and collected. He didn't think Preston stood a chance against him. Soon class ended and everyone left. He found Pacifica waiting by the doors for him. She looked very sad. He came up to her and placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Don't worry. I'll be fine. I will win." Dipper said confidently. Pacifica looked up at him with hoped filled eyes. Dipper pulled her in closer to him. He had a arm on her shoulders while she had her arms wrapped around him. He had gotten on his motorcycle and drove to the gym. The gym was normal looking. When he walked in a big black man with tattoos all over his body stepped out in front of him.

"Sorry this place is closed for the day." The man said.

"I know booked for a fight. I'm one of the fighters. Dipper pines." Dipper said.

"Ahh. So your the guy who challenged Preston northwest. I feel sorry for you kid." He said. He stepped aside and let the two of them in. "Preston is a regular here. Likes to keep himself in shape."

"I always wondered why he had a good right hook." Pacifica mumbled. Dipper heard her but the big guy didn't. Dipper sat down on the bleachers waiting. Soon Preston came in and went into the locker room to change. Dipper decided to change as well. He changed into a pair of black and blue gym shorts. Preston came out in a pair of red shorts. Preston began training while dipper sat down on the bleachers watching him. When it was nearing seven o'clock Preston stopped and began to rest up for the fight. But by then the fight was already decided. Dipper had seen his every move and could tell what he was gonna do just by watching his actions. When it was 7 almost the entire town was in the gym watching. Ford and Soos were at the front of the bleachers. Stan was gonna be like dippers coach while Pacifica held his water bottle and a towel. No Mabel though. Guess she was still angry with him for some reason. Dipper was sitting on the stool in his corner while Preston sat in the stool opposite him. Preston had a bunch of butlers a life coach as his crew team. The man looked angry. A referee got into the ring so both Preston and dipper stood up and went to the center of the ring.

"Alright everyone. You good?" He asked dipper. Dipper nodded. "You good?" He asked Preston. Preston nodded. "Alright go back to your corners." Dipper and Preston did as they were told. "Fight!" The referee yelled. Dipper moved towards Preston as Preston moved towards him.

"Right hook" dipper thought while reading prestons movements (if words are in bold letters it means that they are what people are think). Preston winded up for the punch. Dipper easily dodged it since he knew it was coming. He side stepped and threw a punch of his own into prestons side. Dipper had to pull back his punch so as to not do to much damage. Preston gritted his teeth and glared at the kid. Then he came forward again. "Uppercut" dipper moved and again dodged the attack. And again he threw a counterattack. Preston was starting to understand how he was doing it. Preston started becoming more aware of his movements. He started forward. "Left hook" dipper thought. He went but he was wrong. Preston had figured him out and dipper just proved it. He received a fist in his face. It felt too hard to be a normal hand. Dipper fell to the ground hard Preston was above him and was about to smash down on him. Dipper rolled away and looked at Preston. "So silver knuckles. What brass to cheap." Dipper said aloud. Everyone began to boo at what they heard.

"I said no rules." Preston said with an evil smirk. Dipper stood up completely.

"Wasn't really complaining. I was planning on still fighting." Dipper said. Dipper cracked his neck.

"Ooh. I'm so scared." Mr. Northwest said with mockery.

"You should be." Dipper said glaring at him. And too everyone's surprise (and his own) he took a step back. Then dipper moved forward. "My turn" he said he threw a right hook. Preston went to block but it was a fake. Then he hit Preston with a left hook. He went spinning and grabbed the ropes to steady himself. "Don't think I remembered you saying no rules. I actually expected you cheat like this. Just didn't expect it to be silver. Thought it would be brass though. Guess it was just too cheap for you though." Dipper said. He had to be careful though. For some reason silver in gravity falls seemed to grow in strength so much you could beat a manotaur with a just a silver bat. Preston started forward and so did dipper Preston went for a uppercut dipper dodged. Good thing too if it had hit it would have most definitely have taken him out. Then dipper hit him as hard as he was allowed to hit a human. This caused him to sprawl out on the floor. Everyone stared in shock.

"1! 2! 3! Winner!" The referee yelled. He grabbed dippers hand and threw it up into the air. Pacifica was so happy. She jumped the ropes and ran to dipper pulling him into a big hug. Everyone was cheering.

"That's my great nephew!" Stan yelled as loud as he could.

"Way to go dude!" Soon said.

"Good job my boy." Ford called. Afterwards while mr. Northwest was still unconscious dipper went into his bag and pulled out the hard drive.

"Sheriff blubs." Dipper called. The pudgy black sheriff turned to him.

"That was one fine match. Knock out in the first round. Good job boy." The sheriff said.

"Thank you but I think you should see this." He said indicating the hard drive. Dipper got Pacifica and together they showed everything on the hard drive to the sheriff exposing Preston as an abusive person who beat on his wife and daughter. When Preston woke up he was arrested on the spot and hauled off to jail. The trail was set to happen a week or two after Pacifica's birthday. So their was no way he was gonna get out of going to prison. After giving sheriff blubs the hard drive and watching him arrest Pacifica's father they went home and fell asleep in bed together. Both feeling great that Preston northwest wasn't going to bother them for a long time.
