If He Knew...

Chapter 2: What Happens Now?

🌲Dipper's P. O. V.

Cold. That's all I felt. Cold, and very tired. I began to open my eyes, to see a bricks walls with multicolored, for what it seemed to be, cement. I'm still in the Fearamid, I thought. I began to close my eyes again, but then I remembered. Mabel. Instantly, I jumped to my feet. I look around to see where I was. I was in a room, well, not exactly a room more like a prison cell. There was a window, but the bars are too thick and even if I managed to break it, it's way too small, and I'm short! I groan in frustration. Must find a way out!" Dipper?" I screeched in terror, sounding like a girl.

A soft chuckle echoed from behind me." You sound like a little girl, Dips." A weak, but bubbly voice said. I know that voice anywhere. I eagerly turned around to Mabel, smiling weakly at me." Mabel!" I rushed to her, hugging her tightly. She hugged back, and soon we let go. There was a sudden silence, Mabel and I have been quiet, not saying a word. All that wasn't silent, was the roars of henchmaniacs, car alarms, desperate cries of people, screaming, and and a crackling fire burning from. I feel and smell the smoke. It was unbearable. But the sounds didn't last long as Mabel spoke." Dipper." I raise my head." Yeah?" I asked." He won. Bill won. We couldn't stop him. He won." I could hear her voice cracking. She had her head down but I could see the tears running down her pink cheeks.

I honestly didn't know what to tell her. Should I tell her 'yes, we lost, Bill won' and stuff and admit defeat, or 'no, we haven't, there is still the two of us left, we can beat Bill on our own,' but we're just kids!

"Ma-"
"And you said we'll defeat Bill. You said we would WIN. You said that we'll grow up together. Now we're stuck here, Grunkle Stan and Ford are gold, our friends are trapped, and no one else knows where we are. We could never see our family again!!
And who knows what's Bill doing now! It's all over! It's all my fault!!" She screamed. Losing her cheerful personality, she pounded her fists to ground, not caring if they hurt, she kept on pounding her fists. Big tears escaped from her eyes, lips quivering, mucus running down from her nose, but she couldn't care less. She kept on crying, take heavy, breathes as she cries.

I sat there in shock. Never, never, never have I seen her like this. Even during the summer, I've seen her upset before, but a breakdown was major. I felt a tear dripping down. Watching a happy-go-lucky, joyful, and fun person break was heartbreaking, and she was my twin. My other half, slowly falling apart. Seeing her cry, makes me cry, too." M-ab-b-bel! It's-it-It's not your-!" A heavy sob erupt from my throat, I covered my mouth, wanting to stop, but I couldn't." Y-yes i-i-it is!!" She wailed more.

"I-im s-s-sorry, Dipper! I'm so-so-so!"

"N-no! Y-you have n-nothing t-to apologize!"

This went on for about an hour. We shouted at each other. Mabel saying that was her fault, and she was sorry. I said, that it wasn't her fault, and that she had nothing apologize for.

Somehow we managed to stop, and took a breather. We were tired of crying, our faces numb and messy. But that feeling in my throat was still there, wanting me to sob more. But it was too painful to cry now.

"Dipper..."

"..."

"What happens now? Everyone we know is...somewhere..."

"I'm not sure, Sis. I don't know what to do. I have no ideas."

"..."

"It's getting dark. We should rest."

"...alright."

"Goodnight, Dipper. I hope I see you tomorrow."

"....Goodnight..mabel...I hope..."
