I was racing upstairs, Uncle Ford right behind me. We had to check on Mable!
"Mable? Mable?" I called, "Are you all right?"
"Yea, Deerper, I'm fine. How about you?"
"MABLE! I have Uncle Ford up here with me! And don't call me that!"
"Fine, Deerper." She sighed as we entered the bathroom.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mable was worse off than I'd thought she would've been. She didn't just have a scaly pink fish tail, Mable also had gills on her neck and webbing between her fingers. She also had webbing where her ears used to be, as well as very sharp teeth. Mable wasn't just a mermaid, she was a siren!
"Mable, how do you feel?" Ford asked her, "Do you feel fine?"
"Of course! I don't see anything wrong other than I am an ******** MERMAID! THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mable, language." Dipper told her.
"I think I am speaking English, Dipper." Dipper mentality facepalmed himself.
"Well, whatever we do, we can't let Uncle Stan find out about the river, all right guys?"
"Ok, Dipper."
"I haven't been trusted with many secrets, but yay! I have a secret! I wish I could tell everyone right now about it."
"MABLE! That's the exact opposite of what a secret is!" I told Mable, exasperated with her.

Stan was pacing around the gift shop. There were no new ripoffs that he could sell to the customers, witch meant that he, Stanley Pines, would have to come up with a good idea. He banged his fist on the cash register, it made a ka-Ching! noise that Stan found very annoying. He wasn't getting any richer doing this, not by the hour, not by the minute, not by the second.
Wait! There was a drought in Gravity Falls! Everyone would want some water! All the rivers, ponds and lakes that Stan could think of were almost empty or bone dry. Dipper had been out the other day, going deep into the Forrest, maybe he had stumbled across a river somewhere.
Stan went up the stairs, and pressed his ear against the door. Dipper was saying something that sounded like, "whatever we do, we can't let Uncle Stan find out about the river." Stan stopped listening. Dipper HAD found a river, and he, Stanley Pines, would find it.
After stumbling around the Forrest for a few hours, Stan found the river. It was wideish, or at least for a drought, had purple stones at the bottom, and most important of all, water.
Stan filled up his water bottle and drank. The water was very sweet. Maybe people would stop trying to sue him for his lousy products, if this was real. He could imagine it now; 'Stan's magic age-removing water! Cures wrinkles, muffin tops, aches, and pains. Very sweet!' Stan started to fill the bottles.
A few hours later, Stan had finished filling up the bottles. He bought lots and lots, so everyone could have more than 10 each. He chuckled to himself, thinking of a deal; '1 for $10, 5 for $100, 10 for $1,000, 20 for $2,000'.
After the Mystery Shack opened, Stan hung signs pointing to the Mystery Shack all over the Forrest. they were very crude, but Stan liked them. People would come and those signs were cheap.

Soos ran upstairs. He had drank one bottle of the stuff because Stan insisted. Were you normally supposed to be this sweaty? He doubted it.
"Ford? Dipper? I got that portable fish tank here." Soos wiped his brow as he pushed it up the stairs.
"Thanks Soos." Dipper replied as Mable splashed him with water.
"Where do you guys want me to put this?"
"Just leave it in my and Mable's room."
"OK toods." Soos walked back downstairs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Dipper, get more of the water from the back!" Wow, how could even he, Stanley Pines, knew that the water would be this successful? He knew that water was scarce, but not THIS scarce.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I can't Uncle Stan! There isn't any more!" Where was Stan even getting this much water in the middle of a drought? Dipper shrugged it off as he helped Uncle Stan sell the water.
