Skye landed softly on the ground on the other side of the portal. A forest of redwoods surrounded her. Wrapped around her shoulder was a cinch bag, filled with a wallet, hair brush, flashlight, and a pink hydro flask.
You certainly know what I need Bill. She could hear muffled noises behind her. She decided to follow the voices.
She ended up standing in front of a tent, with a sign reading:

She knew about the Gleeful Twins. Dark and twisted twins that performed black magic. Ugh! not excited for this She thought glumly.
She paid for a ticket and sat down in one of the middle rows.
Before the show started, she noticed two teens sitting across the row from her. Pacifica Southwest and Gideon Pines.
It was odd for her to see them like this, you know, actually normal and nice. Well it is reverse falls so things are gonna be weird here.
Everyone got quiet. The stage lights shined (even though there was plenty of sunshine). The curtain rose to reveal two kids about her age. The Gleeful Twins.
Their getup was surprisingly stylish. Dipper looked quite dashing in his black dress pants, blue dress shirt, and a black cape, seeming to float in the air all by itself. Mabel wore a similar colored tight fitting suit, with black tights and a black skirt. They each had gems attached to clips, Mabels on her headband and Dipper's around his neck.
Wait. The gems! Those are used to channel their powers! She watched as they danced around the stage, the audience roaring.
"We're the Telepathy Twins!" They said in unison.
"Where we bring you magic with entertainment!" Dipper said, looking into the crowd. He winked at Skye, seeming to like what he saw.
Ughh. What a creep! She ignored his flirtatious looks and focused on a way to get the clips from them.
"Now for our first trick, we'll need a volunteer." Mabel said, holding a deck of cards.
Multiple girls jumped from their seats squealing. They obviously had the hots for Dipper. Skye couldn't care less.
Dipper looked at Skye. "You there! Come up to the stage! Thanks for volunteering!"
Even though I didn't. Of course you had to choose me.
She walked up to the stage, wondering what he had planned. He took the cards from Mabel and held them out to her.
She turned her head to see Mabel bring a kid a little older than her from behind the stage. He wore a light blue sweater and his skin wasn't as pale as she imagined it being. She could see his face was full of terror, but he was trying to hide it.
"Pick a card Skye, any card." he winked. Wait, what do these cards do?
As if reading her mind, he said, "They determine what we do to Will over there." He motioned at the kid next to Mabel. She was sharpening a knife while Will looked at her with a worried look.
She knew exactly what he meant. She decided to speak up.
"What!? Are you insane!? There's no way I'm picking a card!" She turned to the audience. "Don't you see what they're gonna do to him!?"
Only a few people got the message, but did nothing about it.
She turned back to Dipper. "How is this even legal!? That poor kid doesn't want anything to do with this!" Will smiled at her, but it faded quickly. "I'm not gonna let you do this." she said walking towards Will.
Dipper came closer to her and grabbed her arm. She looked at him, shocked at the outburst.
"No, you won't be doing anything dear." He said, slightly raising her in the air with magic. "For the next act, I'll make our volunteer disappear!"
Suddenly, a gust of wind seemed to hit Skye in all directions, she felt her body literally disappearing. She wanted to scream, but she couldn't find her voice. Before being blinded by blue dust, Dipper whispered to her, but in her mind:
"This is a warning Skye. Don't ever return. Unless, of course, you want to see me. Interfere with Will or the show again, You'll regret ever meeting me. Hope to see you around dear." His voice vanished from her mind.
Oh God, that was creepy... and gross.
She looked around, seeing the Mystery Shack in front of her. She had to find a way to get the gems. She already had a "brilliant" plan to get them.
