Chapter 11- Mall Madness
3rd person P.O.V
--------------------------------------------------------
Earsects and Eyebats flew around Gravity Falls and scouted the area for any humans. Dipper, Mabel, and Bill, on the other hand, were hiding behind buildings to avoid being either turned into stone or being liquified by some earwax. Bill sat next to a TV that somehow had power on and played the local news.
"We're day 3 in this doomsday which some are calling Weirdmageddon, or the Oddpocalypse. Forecasts today call for purple skies, blood rain, and frequent showers of Eyeball Bats turning people into stone and Ear Flies melting others alive. I'm Sandra Haminiez, and I ate a rat for dinner." Bill kicked the TV out of anger.
"Ding dang you, Pandora. The worst part about this is that I have to admit that Pandora is doing a much better job at this apocalypse thing than me." Dipper frowned at Bill
"Is that it?! That's all you think about? The apocalypse?! We're out here fighting to survive, and all you think about is the end of the world?! Is that all you care about!?" Bill started looking sad.
"What else is there for me? It's what I was taught, and that's the only thing I'm good for!" Mabel had no real explanation for it, but she started feeling sympathy for Bill.
"Dipper, are you feeling gross inside?" Dipper frowned at Mabel.
"Mabel, We just had what I hope was a mutated fish for breakfast. How could you not feel gross in this situation?" Mabel gave a quick glance at Bill, whose color scheme changed into blue and was drawing a bunch of shapes on the wall. A diamond, a circle, a square, rectangle, octagon, and a triangle in the middle. Mabel even spotted a tear from Bill's face.
"Look at Bill. There's just something about him that makes me feel bad about him." Mabel was given a disgusted look.
"Mabel, It's Bill. He probably just wants you think that." Bill turned from blue to red and hit the space where he drew the shapes. Mabel still felt bad for Bill. "HEY GUYS, LOOK!" Mabel and Bill looked up and spotted the Gravity Falls Mall.
"SHELTER!" Mabel cheered.
"SAFE HOUSE!" Dipper cheered along.
"EYE BAT!" And Bill screamed as he saw an eye bat approaching. Dipper and Mabel also looked back and screamed as the Eye bat started to turn around.
"QUICKLY! TO THE MALL!" The 3 ran across the street, avoiding the stare of the Eye bat, into the Mall. It took a while to open the door, but they managed to get in the abandoned mall.
"Hello? Anyone here?" Dipper yelled out.
"Yeah, is anyone here. Anyone who isn't a man eating baby head?" Bill covered Mabel's mouth.
"Don't speak it's name...it can smell your confusion." Mabel sniffed the smell of cheese.
"And I smell some nachos." Bill sighed.
"Ahh, nachos. I love how you mortals enjoy the snacks shaped in my image. I practically rule the world with my triangular delicious images." The three found some random nachos on the table, and Mabel picked it up.
"The last nachos on earth..." As Mabel picked up the nachos, a net trapped her on the ceiling.
"WHA-HELP! THE NACHOS USED THIER EVIL POWERS TO TRAP ME IN A NET!"
"MABEL! NO!" Dipper latched onto the net, trying to tear it apart.
"I'M A COMIN, DARLIN-" Bill covered his eye,which also served as a mouth, giving him his reason to cover his eye, before he spilled out the word. Wendy soon popped out of a bush.
"Dipper? Mabel? And...some living nacho?"
"Wendy? What happened to you?" Dipper asked
"OH NO! SHE'S BEEN TURNED INTO A TREE MONSTER!" Bill gasped
"Oh no...not a tree monster...those guys like to eat faces." Wendy laughed.
"Dudes, it's just me, Wendy." Wendy stepped out of her bush disguise. "My dad made my family do apocalypse training every year instead of Christmas. I guess all that paranoia finally paid off." Wendy used a crossbow to shoot a bat, killing it and making it drop on the ground. "Nice, bat meat! Want some, you guys?" Dipper was reluctant
"Uhh..no thanks..."
"Well, at least it's not smile dip." Mabel was more or less thankful.
"JOY! I LOVE MEAT!" Then there was Bill, the one who was happy he was getting bat meat.
"Cmon guys,"Wendy used her axe to cut open the net. "Let's go. It's just the 4 of us in here. And Toby Determined, who I mistook for a monster."
"This just in...THIS ARROW IN MY SHOULDER."
"We shouldn't stay out in open for too long. Cmon guys, I'll show you my hideout." The 5 went into the abandoned "Edgy on purpose" shop, avoiding an Earsect crawling around.
*SMALL TIME SKIP*
Wendy, Dipper, Mabel, and Bill were cooking some bat over a fire, telling about what happened when the apocalypse started.
"We were playing truth or dare in the cemetery when it happened. The Eyebats and the Earsects took Thompson, Nate, and Lee. Robbie almost got away but had to pause to take a selfie. What about you guys?" Dipper took small glances at Mabel and Bill before talking.
"Apparently Mabel and Bill were having a little date, and me and Ford didn't take that well. We made Mabel make a promise never to see Bill again. She didn't take it well and smashed the rift and caused all this." Dipper had some dislike in his voice, and Mabel started feeling guiltier and guiltier by the second.
"Dipper's right. Me and Bill started liking each other, so then we went on a date and that happened, and I just..." Mabel sighed before hiding her face in her hands.
"Meanwhile, I tried to stop the Henchmaniacs from entering this world, but then they got angry and fired me from being boss and hired my Ex-girlfriend, Pandora. She's that pentagram in sky who has her image of her everywhere." Bill spotted a poster formerly saying "Optimism's overrated" with a skull in the middle, now saying "Reality's overrated" with Pandora in the middle. "SADDUP, YOU IDEA STEALER!" Bill dropkicked the poster. Meanwhile, Mabel was in some shock and awe.
"You tried and stop the end of the world? That's...That's so sweet, Bill." Mabel said, slightly blushing. Bill also slightly blushed, and Dipper just scoffed.
"Huh. Alright then guys, lets get some fresh air. Toby, you watch the shop." Toby slid the curtain back and reveled a punk version of himself.
"DON'T CALL ME TOBY ANYMORE. CALL ME BODACIOUS T!"
"No one will ever call you that."
"Aww..."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wendy, Dipper, Mabel, and Bill stepped outside of the hideout, heading towards the door before Mabel picked up the sounds of a bar party.
"Uhhh....Wendy? By any chance, do you know some weird biker gang who lives in the mall?"
"No. No I do not." The group started looking skeptically at the room where the party noises originated. Dipper walked slowly towards the room, the rest of the group trailing behind. Dipper opened the door and found some old messed up western bar like place with Bill's Henchmaniacs partying and hanging out. Cue the gasps.
"Well Well Well. Guys, looks like we have free snacks coming for the party." Teeth said, The rest of the Henchmaniacs laughing along with him.
"YOU'LL NEVER TAKE US ALIVE, MONSTERS." Wendy yelled.
"That's fine by us." Pacifire opened up his jaw to eat Dippers arm, but got cut off by a grappling hook to the face.
"OH SNAP! GLASSES-" Kryptos got cut off by 8 Ball.
"It's shooting star. Glasses is that crazy old man who live in the shed."
"-SHOOTING STAR JUST HIT PACIFIRE IN THE FACE!" Amorphous shape picked up a chair and threw it at Wendy, the latter dodging the projectile.
"BAR FIGHT!" Yelled the broken Rubik's cube. Oh...if only I wasn't lazy and I was able to write the fight scene. Just imagine a bunch of grappling hook launchings, some axe attacks, some fire, some chairs, some journal smacks, etc, etc. that happened for a good half minute before Bill stepped in.
"STOP! STOP! STOP THE PRESSES! CUT! CUT! CUT! CUUTTT!!" The Henchmaniacs stared at Bill for a few seconds.
"Oh, hey former-boss. Look, sorry for all that kinda banishing you thing, but orders are orders. Oh yeah, speaking of, Pandora kinda told us to hurt you badly again if we see you, so...sorry, again." Keyhole tried to lighten the matter, but it didn't really help with the fact that Bill was about to be attacked again.
"WHAT!? NO! CMON! I JUST RECOVERED!" The "brutal" (Notice sarcasm) scene lasted for a few 10 seconds, Mabel trying to make the Henchmaniacs let go of Bill.
"STOP! YOU BUTTHEADS! LET GO OF HIM!" Mabel launched her grappling hook at 8 Ball, making the Henchmaniacs stop, 8 Ball turning his head towards Mabel. "Look, All I want to do is defeat Pandora, win back the summer, and hopefully have a nice romance with Bill. Just...Don't you know what it's like to have a crush!? A dream!? Hope!?" 8 Ball started heading towards Mabel while Dipper scolded her.
"MABEL! THESE ARE INSANE MONSTERS YOUR TALKING TO! THEY DON'T KNOW LOVE AND THEIR DREAMS ARE PROBABLY ABOUT EATING HUMAN BONES!" 8 Ball was mere inches away from the twins now, the latter holding each other in fear. 8 Ball took a pause before taking a somber tone.
"I had a dream....Once....BOYS! GIVE ME A BEAT!" Some living instruments made out of living human skin and organs started playing a tune.
"Ugh. Really? Singing?" Mabel cut off Dipper.
"Shhh, I wanna see where this goes."
(This part is going to be more of a script, so...yeah. Sorry. Also sorry for the musical number. It's to the tune of "I got a dream" from Tangled. Damn, I am REALLY stupid.)
8 Ball: 🎶I'm green, mean, and scary.
My sneer could curdle dairy.
And my urge to kill, I'm somehow still unridden.
*Starts stepping back to the counter* But despite loving people's cries,
AND HAVING 8 BALLS IN MY EYES...
*Picks up a box full of wind-up skulls with chicken legs* I REALLY just want to sell toys to the children!
Can you see me owning some corporation,
Giving out toys to young kiddies?
Yes, I'd rather be toy selling
Which is why I'm here now telling
That way down deep inside I got dream~🎶
Henchmaniacs: 🎶HE'S GOT A DREAM~! HE'S GOT A DREAM~!🎶
8 Ball: 🎶See, I'm not as shallow and one dimensional as I seem.
While I do like EATING FEMURS,
You can count me with the dreamers.
Cause way down deep inside, I got dream~.🎶
*Small instrumental break*
Pyronica: 🎶My health situation's kinda dire,
Plus, I'm kinda sorta ON FIRE!
And let's not even mention my complexion~.
*Grabs X ray to show a second heart inside the her chest area*
But despite my extra heart, and with my neck muscles torn apart...
I really want to make a love connection!🎶 *Hands Dipper a melting rose*
Dipper: WOAH! I DON'T LIKE WHERE THIS IS GOING! *Gets grabbed by Pyronica* HEY! WOAH! AH! *Gets put on mini boat with Pyronica*
Pyronica: 🎶Could you see me with a special little boy man,
*Starts rowing mini boat down floor*
Rowing down a rowboat down the stream?
Though I'm one disgusting blighter,
I'm a lover, not a fighter.
Cause way down deep inside,
I GOT A DREAM!🎶
Henchmaniacs: 🎶She's got a dream~. She's got a dream~.
Pyronica: 🎶And I know one day, Romance will reign supreme~.
Though my face leaves people SCREAMING!
There's a child behind it dreaming.
Cause way down deep inside, I got a dream...🎶
Dipper: So, wait. Are you...?
Pyronica: Nah. Of course not! I was just using you as an item to represent some guy in the future. Though I do know someone that feels that way about you.
Dipper: Wait. Who?
Pyronica: DIPPER AND PACIFICA, SITTING IN A TREE! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!
Dipper: *Blushing*
Teeth: Oh, I'd like eat the most Balut in record time.
Keyhole: I'd like to do interior design.
Pacifire: *Hand signs: Translation: I'm quite into mimes*
Xanthar: I SAY MY CUPCAKES ARE SUBLIME!
Amorphous shape: I LOVE KNITS!
Kryptos: I DO SEWS!
Hectorgon: I MAKE LITTLE PUPPET SHOWS!
8 Ball: And Lava Lamp collects ceramic unicorns...
Teeth: CALL US BRUTAL!
Pacifire: Sick and sadistic.
Kryptos: And grotesquely optimistic.
Henchmaniacs: CAUSE WAY DOWN DEEP INSIDE, WE GOT SOME DREAMS
Random: I got a dream!
Random: I GOT A DREAM!
Random: I GOT A DREAM!
Henchmaniacs: CAUSE WAY DOWN DEEP INSIDE, WE GOT SOME DREAMS~
All (Except Wendy and Dipper): YEAH!
(BACK TO 3RD PERSON)
"WOOOOOHOHO! YEAH!" Mabel cheered.
"Well, there goes a few minutes of my life." Dipper said, annoyed he had to spend a few minutes of his life watching a musical number being sung by a bunch of monsters.
"...Hey, wait. If you guys have dreams, then what about the rest of the Henchmaniacs? You know, Pandora's Henchmaniacs." Mabel was hoping to hear some more musical numbers, though the response didn't turn out promising.
"OH! Funny story, or rather, not so funny story..." Teeth started going down into a flashback.
*FLASHBACK TO THE PAST!*
Teeth was walking up to Myssa, the heart with spider legs, in Pandora's car.
"Say, Myssa. Quick question. Have you ever had a dream that doesn't involve killing anyone or destroying planets? Maybe having a love life, or making a world record, or something like that?" Myssa was quick to respond.
"No. The only dream I have is to stab a universe through the heart and eat the souls of the mortals that burn."
".....Oh. T-t-that's great....yaaaayyyy...."
*END FLASHBACK*
"Apparently, we're just some leftover minions because everyone else abandoned us. We're weaker because we have 'Pathetic Dreams'. Basically, we're the ones that were picked last." Teeth said depressingly.
"I-I know. I-I-I feel s-so weak and u-u-unwanted now..." Keyhole said between sobs.
"There there Keyhole. We'll get our dreams someday..." Pyronica tried comforting keyhole.
"Then why don't you all follow your dreams?" The Henchmaniacs looked a Mabel as if the answer was right her face.
"W-HA-WHY DON'T WE-HA HA-WHY DON'T WE FOLLOW OUR DREAMS!? Heh...Because look at us. We're some gross monster who have no place in the world other than to terrify the souls out of mortals. What else do we have to do?"
"Look, people may just think your some gross monsters who can't do anything, but I say you guys are great people who can follow their dreams! I mean, look at me! I'm just some ordinary pre-teen girl who broke up tens of thousands of guys. But do you see me giving up?" Mabel tried making some speech to motivate the Henchmaniacs. Bill followed along.
"My girlfri- I mean Mabel is right. I was just some loser triangle who didn't wasn't noticed at all except by my family. My uncle, however, taught me to be the thing I am today because 'It was family heritage' and 'It's the only thing we're good for', But look at where it got me. Don't you see? People like Pandora and my crazy uncle...and me...just wanna hold you down and manipulate you to do the most horrible things. But you know what?" Bill took a picture of Pandora and A random diamond out of nowhere and smashed the two on the ground.
"I SAY NO MORE! You wanna complete your dreams? STAND UP TO PANDORA AND GET YOUR FREEDOM THAT WAS LOST FROM YOU! Just...just like I did....to my family...." The Henchmaniacs started cheering.
"YEAH! THAT PENTAGRAM IS NOTHING BUT TROUBLE" 8 Ball threw a skull with chicken legs at the picture of Pandora.
"WE'LL SHOW THISE OTHER DEMONS WHOSE BOSS!" Teeth chomped on the picture of the one eyed pentagram.
"WE WON'T LET OUR DREAMS BE DREAMS!" Keyhole threw a chair around.
"REVOLUTION!" The Henchmaniacs shouted as they broke out of the Bar and got on the kiddie carriage that was in the shape of the car, which was kinda small, making it hard to squeeze in. It also made for a slow ride.
"Huh. Those are some actually nice guys..." Mabel said. Dipper, Mabel, Wendy, Bill, and Toby Determined, who was there because he wanted to fit in with the group, took one of the kiddie carriages and rode off to Pandora's Panic Plaza. Very, Very slowly.
