Mable woke up screaming. She couldn't breathe. She was sure she was about to die. Just as she was passing out, she felt Dipper grab her around her middle.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mable! Mable! Wake up!" Dipper yelled. Mable was submerged in the bathtub so she could breathe.
"Dipper?" Asked a groggy Mable, "Where am I" She then came awake fully.
"Wow! I'm a MERMAID!!! This is SO AWESOME!!!" She splashed her tail in excitement, "But how did you know to put me in here?"
"I woke up when I heard you screaming. I saw that you were a mermaid, so I put your mouth under the sink and let the water go while I filled up the bathtub." Then, Dippers ears perked up in fright. He had just realized something.
"Mable, we have to get downstairs! Uncle Ford needs to check us out! I don't even know how I am going to get you downstairs! Stay here while I get him."
"Ha Ha. Like I can go anywhere like this." Mable told him sarcastically.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dipper went downstairs, cursing his hooves for being so loud. He walked over to the vending machine, punched in the numbers, and went down in the elevator.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stanford Pines was pacing around his study. Why were his Bill Monitors acting so weird? He had built them after Weirdmagetton, for he always knew there was a chance of him coming back. Yesterday they were off the charts, while today they were almost dead. What was happening?
Ford heard a ding! as the elevators doors opened.
"Dipper? What happened to you?"
"Bill's back Uncle Ford! He possessed me and jumped into a river!" Dipper cried, "Then he disappeared. I don't know where he is! Mable's a mermaid!"
"Uh, Dipper? Where was this particular river? Was it near those crystals, by any chance?"
"Y-Yessss?" Ford facepalmed himself. Dipper had swam in the Fluvius Cantatis.
"So, did anyone else besides you and Mable fall in this river?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I don't know. I thought I heard someone behind us, but I didn't see anyone." Dipper answered nervously. Did someone follow me and Mable?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wendy woke up. It was soooo hot! She stretched, her paws in front of her. Wait- since when did she have paws? Wendy looked at herself. This certainly explained why Dipper looked like a half-deer thing. She had red fur all over, a muzzle, and something that felt like a tail. Was she a giant fox thing?
Wendy needed to find a mirror. At least she could still stand on her back legs. Keeping her tail outwards for balance, she walked over to the bathroom. Then, she looked into the mirror.
Wendy had a noticeable wolffish quality in her face, but she still looked similar. Her clothes were ripped, probably because she was twice her size as a human.
"I'm a werewolf." Wendy cowered at her reflection. What would Stan think? What would Dipper? At least he looked relatively like a human.
Wendy backed out of the bathroom, and into Soos.
"Soos! You've got to help me!" Wendy cried, shaking Soos's shoulders with her front paws, "Dipper can't see me like this!"
Just then the vending machine opened, letting Dipper and Ford step out of the elevator.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Wendy! You're a werewolf!" Dipper then fell on the floor hyperventilating. Ford tried to pick up Dipper, but he must've been really heavy, because he stopped really quick.
"Wendy? You followed them?" Ford mentally facepalmed himself. Oh boy. Before you could say 'it's raining money' Stan would find out and sell water to everyone to drink. Then, everyone would get angry and attack them. It would probably be good if he found a cure, but Mable needed him, being trapped in the bathtub.
"Soos! Make a portable fish tank that Mable could easily fit into pronto!" Shouted Ford as he followed Dipper up the stairs.
"Got it, Mr. Pines! One portable fish tank for Mable coming right up!" Soos shouted back.
