Chapter 18: Kidnapping
Pacifica POV
"Everyone all set?" I asked in the walkie talkie.
"Ready as I'll ever be." Cody grumbled.
"This would be fun." Gideon replied.
"Guys, just follow the plan and nobody gets hurt." I replied.
"How could you be sure?! Last time you got stabbed!" Cody snapped.
I rolled my eyes, "Well this is going to work. Trust me. We got the upper hand here."
"I hope you are right about this."
I was hidden in the alley way of a part of the old town. Cody was in the van that was across the street from me. Gideon was a few blocks away, to let us know that he was heading our way. I took a deep breath, "Let's do this."
Then Gideon called the radio, "Gleeful is heading your way. He just pass the clothing shop."
"Okay, get ready then." I replied, "Going silent now."
"Okay."
"Careful, Pacifica." Cody commented.
Then I turn off the radio and toss it to the side. I got my crutches ready. Then I glance around the building and could see Dipper walking down the street. He had his hands in his slack pockets and his head hug a bit low. I could see that his face was a bit pale and his hair wasn't as perfect as normal. He tried to fix it but he failed. Something more was going on. Dipper coughed into his hand and I notice that he coughed out blood. He looked at it with disgust as he pulled out a cloth form his hand and wipe his hand. Then he stuffed it back in his pocket.
I couldn't think about why he would be coughing out of blood. He was coming towards me. I hid back in the darkness of the alley way. I then pulled out my clutch to use it. Hearing the clicks of his dress shoes on the cement came closer.
Then he came pass the alley way. I swing my clutched and it hit his stomach. Dipper gasped out as he doubled over. Then I swing my clutch up and hit his face and then I swing the clutch to knock him off of his feet.
Dipper grunted as he landed on his back on the hard cement. He groans in pain. I was glad that I had the element of surprise but I didn't quiet knock him out. So I had to hit him again and this time it knocked him out.
"And you said that I couldn't kick your butt." I smirked.
Then Gideon came around the corner, "Remind me to not mess with you."
"It's all in the element of surprise. Dipper isn't very good with surprise attacks." I replied.
"Huh."
"Let's get him in the car."
Dipper POV
I groaned in pain as I was gathering my senses. How stupid was I to let myself get attack!? Stupid surprise attacks and who would attack me? Sure I'm the body guard of Stan Gleeful but everyone in town knows to not mess with me or my sister. Of course I was lost in thought so I'm so stupid! Nobody makes me stupid! I'm going to skin whoever did this!
Finally I got my eyes to open and my other senses to work. I was somewhere dark and so I couldn't really see. Then I was tied to a chair. My wrists tied to the arm of the chair and my ankles to the legs of the chair.
They tied me into the chair tightly.
Then I notice that I was gagged.
"What is going on!? Argh! Doesn't matter. I can get myself out and murder some people. I could murder some people to clear my head..." I thought in my head. The I notice that my amulet was gone. It wasn't around my neck, "What the heck!?"
Suddenly there was a bright light that shine in my face. My eyes burned at the light.
"Well it's about time you woke up." A voice in the darkness replied. It sounded female...and familiar.
"Looks familiar doesn't it?" The voice came closer to me. Then she came into the light. The blond girl...Pacifica.
She sat in a chair in front of me, "Oh don't worry...I won't stab you."
I glared at her, my jaw tighten on the gag.
"I just need you to listen." She replied gently. She looked at me with softness in her pretty blue eyes...What am I saying!?
"Look I need your help." She continued. She pulled out the journal. That stupid journal 3! My fists tightened as I wanted to rip the journal from grip and slit her throat. She's been a pest and if I get the journal...that could get me and Mabel free from Stan. I can get away with all of this and won't have Stan hunting me down as I run away with Julia. Mabel could be with Will and have that child and maybe more later. We could just get away.
"You want this journal." She waved the journal, "Do you want to know why your great uncle wants it?"
I looked at her. "You don't know anything!" Of course with the gag it was muffled gibberish.
The girl sighed, "I wish I could understand you but I don't want you to say any spells. We really need to talk. Look I'm from an alternate universe. I know that you won't think that I'm crazy. You know about alternate universes. Point is...I want to go home and I know you don't want to be here. Look...Stan is using you to get his brother back."
"Brother? Stan doesn't have a brother." I replied but again it was just muffled nonsense.
"He didn't tell you about it?" Pacifica asked. Then she opened the journal and showed me a page of the weird puzzle thing. "Look familiar? It's in the other journals. Together they will show you how to build a portal, a portal that has his brother. If Ford, the other brother, comes back...it's the end of the world. Ford and Stan will get the power of the universe and get rid of you. That is all he wanted."
"You're crazy. This is all a lie!" Again muffled.
"Think about it Dipper. Has Stan told you why he needed the journal?"
I didn't respond. I just glared at her.
She sighed, "Stop being so stubborn Dipper. Really think about it. You hate Stan don't you?"
I still didn't respond.
She groaned in frustration, "Stop acting like you are 16 and act like you are 20, your real age Dipper. I'm not the enemy here...Stan is. Isn't that something we have in common? We both hate Stan, we both want Stan to lose, and we both want all of this to be over. So tell me Dipper...Do you hate Stan?"
I paused for a moment. She seemed so strong and passionate about this. I could it in her pretty blue eyes. How strong she was being. I never seen a woman this strong before....its...attractive...
Reluctantly I nod my head.
Pacifica smiled, "Now we are getting somewhere. Have Stan told you what he really wanted out of the journal?"
I shook my head.
"Well I'll tell you...end of the world with him and his brother at top. He would get rid of you and your sister. He had the will changed, so he got the money and company when it belongs to you. Wouldn't you want that?"
I thought about it as she continued, "This is Stan's world but we can stop him. Since we have the third journal, we have the upper hand. We can put an end to Stan. Wouldn't you like that?"
I thought back. Pacifica seemed to notice this and she smiled, "You're thinking about it. That's good. Listen I understand that you don't completely trust me but really I'm here to help you. I want Stan to pay also. We can work together to stop the real bad guy. We can put an end to this."
I looked at her. Could she really help me?
"All we need is to work on trust. You can trust me to help you...but can I trust you to help me?" Pacifica asked.
Of course I wanted to stop Stan but how could I trust her? She was the one that Stan wants...He could hurt me or Mabel with a snap of his finger. I doubt she could stop that. She can't protect us...or can she?
Pacifica placed her hand on my knee, "Please Dipper. I need your help to stop Stan. You can get your life back without having to listen Stan. Don't you want that?"
It was weird having her touching me. Strangely I felt it...comforting. Argh! Why! What is wrong with me!
Then suddenly the buzzing of the radio of a male's vioce. "Pacifica! Pacifica we got something out here."
Pacifica looked back on the radio. She removed her hand from my knee and grabbed the radio. "What is it?" She asked, "I'm trying-"
"Pacifica...it's serious. Come out here."
She looked at me and sighed. Then she grabbed her crutches and headed out. There was the sound of the door closing. Leaving me alone in wherever I was. I still couldn't see anything because of the light in my eyes.
"You are really a moron." A voice broke the silence and it actually startled me. Mabel just randomly appeared right next to me.
"Mabel?" I questioned with a gag in my mouth.
Mabel rolled her eyes as she yank the gag from my mouth, "You went out for a walk and you got yourself kidnapped. Way to go." She then started to untie me.
"What are you doing here? How did you find me?" I questioned.
"Do you want to ask questions now or get out of here?" Mabel snapped, "Will can't keep them busy forever." Then Mabel finally untied me, "Where is your amulet? You know what, forget it. We'll get you a new one. We have to go."
"What do you mean?" I asked standing up.
"Stan needs us."
I growled, "What now..."
"I don't know. We just need to go." Mabel grabbed my wrist and tried to pull me away.
I jerk away from her grip, "I don't want to."
Mabel stopped and looked at me, "What do you mean? We have no choice!"
"No we do have a choice, Mabel, and I think that is with Pacifica."
"Who's Pacifica?"
"The blond girl."
"The girl that kissed you?! Dipper, get you head out of the clouds and focus!"
"I am focus...for once in a long time. We can't live like this! Pacifica said that she could stop Stan...just need my help...our help."
Mabel rolled her eyes, "She just got into your tiny brain of yours."
"My brain isn't tiny!"
"Well you sure act like it is! Dipper, she can't do anything! With or without our help she can't do anything!"
"She has the journal!"
"The journal? Like with her?"
"Yes."
Mabel placed her hands on her hips, "Well, why didn't you say so? This is our ticket out of pain! We take the journal from her and Stan will leave us alone!"
"Leave us alone for how long? A few days? With Pacifica's plan, we can get rid of Stan...for good. She told me the money and company where supposed to go to me!"
Mabel raised her eye brow, "You!"
"I bet you got some too. Mother and Father would have given you some of it. It's all Stan's fault and he needs to pay!"
Mabel growled, "We can't do anything! You know what Stan would do if we stepped out of line!"
"Well I'm willing to take the risk. You can go to Stan and do whatever...you can snitch or cover me...I don't care. I'm staying here."
"You are a moron!"
"I want this to end. I'm done being a servant when I'm supposed to be the master. Don't you want power, Mabel?"
Mabel paused for a moment.
"Don't you want to be the ruler of Gravity Falls?"
Mabel's lips curled, "That does sound nice..."
"Pacifica can make that possible. We get rid of Stan...we get the town."
"Then the world?"
"I...Well..."
"Dipper, we are the powerful ones aren't we? Stan does nothing but sit on his lazy butt and control us. If we get rid of him...we get everything. Isn't that something that we wanted? Power? It's what we wanted for a while, Dipper. This could be our chance."
I thought about it, "Being free and controlling the world...our way...I like it."
"Alright brother, we will work with blondie to get rid of Stan."
"And rule the world."
