Stanley Pines, Our Hero (TEOC series #1)

Author's Note

Oh my gods. I can't believe I have officially finished my first ever fanfiction!

THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH IF YOU ACTUALLY READ THIS ENTIRE STORY!!! Y'all, I can't tell you how much your support means to me!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I hope I scared everyone into thinking that Stan was gonna die. The truth is, I had always known he'd survive to the end of the series. I just liked scaring everyone. 😂

The picture at the top of this chapter and the one below are sketches I had done a few months ago of the scar that Bill's death had left on Stan, the demon's last shell.

Also, I had never really cleared this up, but the reason Stan had seen the dementor in New York in the chapter 'The Retreat' is because of Bill being in his mind and allowing him to see stuff normal mortals can't see. Ford couldn't see the dementor, but he had studied them enough to know that one was nearby. If there's anything else that you still need cleared up, please ask me!

Here's the timeline I made for the story, which was set in September 2012 (the year Gravity Falls was set in):

September 1st: Stan and Ford go sailing on the Stan O' War II
September 10th: Bill reveals himself through Stan (The Reveal)
September 12th: Ford, Stan, Percy and Annabeth arrive in New York; they visit Sally and then Bella (The Retreat, The Reunion)
September 13th: Stan, Ford and Bella set sailing for the Isle of Drear; they run into sea-serpent-Chrysalis (The Realization, The Retracing)
September 14th: The 3 are taken in by the ichthyocentaurs and Mermando; they go back to the Isle of Drear, fight Chrysalis, and rescue Ford (The Reality, The Return, The Rescue)
September 15th: The 3 head for the inner island and Stan is possessed by Bill again; they reach the lake, cross it, and fight in the inner island; Stan kills the axolotl, and Bill (The Resilient, The Revolution, The Revenant)
September 16th: Ford and Bella return to the Stan O' War II at the edge of the Isle of Drear
September 18th: Ford and Bella arrive in New York; they bring Stan to Sally's apartment.
September 19th: Stan finally regains consciousness (The Relief)

Also, there's something else I wanted to mention that will have y'all pretty excited.

I am OFFICIALLY gonna write a sequel for 'Stanley Pines, Our Hero'!!!!!

I am VERY EXCITED to write this story, and I hope you are too!! One thing IS for sure: one of the main characters IS DEFINITELY GONNA DIE. SO BEWARE.

I will post a chapter in here when the sequel is released. Keep an eye out for the second book in 'The End of Cipher' series! (Hint: I MIGHT be doing a third and fourth book. Not official yet though)

Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING SUCH A DEDICATED READER!!! You all mean SO MUCH to me!!!!!!!!!!!! If you liked this story, you can recommend this to your Faller friends or whatever. Also, if you're an artist and for some reason you feel a desire to draw a couple scenes or whatever, that is totally cool!! Just give me credit for the part of the story, and tag me, because I would love to see it!!

THANK YOU AMAZING READERS!!! And stay tuned for the sequel!! :)
