*slides chapter to you from the darkness*

The two twins decided to make a group effort and drag the guide together. Slowly, they made their way to the tall, spindly mass of grey limbs that made up the tree. After what seemed like ages, the two plopped to the ground at the base of the tree.

Mabel twiddled with her thumbs before deciding to him a happier tune, unknowingly drawing the attention of a sock creature hidden in the tree. The girl continued humming, a frown growing on her features as she looked out at the empty land and just how alone her and her brother were. Said twin was abosrbed in writing in his notebook, wanting to record everything still.

"I'm gonna explore!" Mabel exclaimed, unable to stay still for any longer. Receiving a noise of acknowledgement, she headed around to explore the base of the tree. She was looking at the ground and tracing the cracks when a sock suddenly entered her vision."Hi!" She greeted with a smile, happy to find such a cute looking buddy.

"Hello!" It repeated.

"So, you're a sock creature, thing?" Mabel said, sitting down next to the creature.

"Assok!" It proclaimed proudly.

"I should show you to Dipper!" Mabel thought aloud, holding out her hands for 'assok', as she is now calling it, to hop on. Assok happily hopped on and Mabel excitedly brought them to Dipper."Look what I found, Dipper!"

The boy looked up at Mabel, eyes going straight to the sock,"Mabel we don't know if that thing is dangerous or not!"

His exclamation was met with a pout,"Look at him, Dipper. How can such a cute, little creature be dangerous?" Big puppy dog eyes and a baby talk voice made Dipper shake his head.

"Fine, but if that thing turns out to be dangerous, I'm blaming you!"

Mabel shrugged,"His name's Assok!"

"Assok!" It repeated again.

"So can he talk then?" Dipper asked, getting a closer look at the creature.

"Assok canit talk!" It repeated, giving a little hop in Mabel's hands.

"I'm talking that for a 'no' then." The twin sighed,"Well, nice to meet you Assok."

"Snice meetyew!" The sock happily replied. Before any of them could say anymore, the previously shifting colors body of their guide moved a monotone sound playing shortly. Fearful, the twins quickly scrambled up the tree as he started to get up. Assok looked up at the duo, having only hopped up to the first branch.

"Should we go up further incase?" Mabel worried.

"We should be alright, but be prepared to incase." Dipper responded.

RGB let out a groan as he held his screen,"Damn, my head." He put down his hand,"Could someone kindly explain why it feels like I got run over by a steam locomotive?" He said before finally taking in his surroundings."And how I got here?"

The twins stayed silent as they watched, still scared. RGB stood up, walking around and looking at the tree,"Well, this looks worse than ever." He mused before almost running into Assok's branch. A dignified scream escaped the man as he held his hat to his chest.

"Oh." He said, having realized who the creature was,"Hello."

The sock regarded the guide before it."Hell o." It responded.

RGB fidgeted with his hat,"How are you these days? Good? Alright?"

"Al ight."

"Good, yes well that's... that's good." He looked down, running his hands around the rim of his hat."You haven't happened to see two twins about-" he gestured a vague height with his hand,"though one is slightly taller." He added. Assok looked up at the two to signal to the man."Of course they are." The guide muttered.

He looked up at the two before returning his attention back to Assok,"And what if one of them falls and cracks a bone or something?" RGB said irritated,"Tell them to both come down at once!" He ordered the sock before quickly backtracking,"...if you would kindly?"

Assok gave him a look before hopping and grabbing onto the maze of branches, slowly making his way up to the twins. Said duo peeked up at the sock's arrival."Did he say anything?" Dipper asked.

Assok quickly began a dramatization of what RGB had done, earning chuckles from both of the twins.

Below at the base, RGB had started pacing."Climbing trees...hardly explains this situation... it's probable that the Grief flung me here and somehow flung both the twins after me." The guide realized his cane was missing, quickly snapping for the item."But, if they had been flung after me, how were they able to still climb up? Unless they landed there...but they'd certainly be injured. But at the quick glimpse I got of them, there appeared to be nothing damaged. Unless it was internal...why do they have to be so fragile?!"

Assok had made its way down back to the television head, a grin on its face as it waited for the other monster to notice."Ah! Well, what took so long? Did they say anything?" He asked eagerly Before receiving a loud raspberry from the sock in surprise.

"Why...those rascals!" RGB scowled,"It's not safe up there, the tree is sick!" He yelled up at the pair.

Dipper frowned,"This seems dangerous then, it could break at any moment, Mabel."

"So! I like this tree. And just because it's sick doesn't mean it's bad!" Mabel retorted back at the television.

"I'm tryin to look after you two, keep you from not dieing by a tree!" He yelled back at them.

"Then take us home!" Mabel bit back, Dipper watched on, not wanting to interrupt this outburst.

RGB rubbed his screen with a sigh,"Look-" he started,"I already told you that I cannot." He straightening himself up,"Look you two, it's getting very late and you're just going to have to trust me."

Mabel huffed and turned her back on the man while Dipper looked down at him with a sorry face.

"Honestly, you're not helping the situation at all..." RGB frowned as he looked at Mabel's back, turning a knob on his head."I do Hate TO HAVE TO RAISE MY VOICE BUT IF THIS IS THE ONLY WAY YOU'LL LISTEN, THEN SO BE IT!" His voice reached easily up to the two, Mabel burrowed herself into her shirt.

"Mabel?" Dipper said worriedly. The other twin popped up from her shirt, turning to see what was up. Her eyes grew wide as she spotted RGB's cane quickly spinning up towards their branch.

Meanwhile the guide and a smirk on his face as he turned down his volume."Oh don't look at me like that..." He said, spying Assok's expression."I would never harm either of theeEEEEEMMM?!!" The guide had shot up as he snapped for his cane, Assok's head quickly looking up after him.
