Chapter 26
Mabel Pines woke up to a blinding light and a figure standing over her. As she gained her vision, this figure turned out to be an unfamiliar looking woman wearing a long white jacket and holding a clipboard. She was scribbling something onto some paperwork in a dark blue pen. Mabel blinked and tried to sit up. She grunted as she felt pain jab at her sides. The woman looked down at her.
"Ah, you're awake!" She gave the brunette a small smile and wrote down something on the paper.
The woman nodded to herself and looked up from her clipboard. "I'll be back in a sec!" She quickly exited the room.
Mabel blinked slowly. Trying to recall what had happened and why she was in a strange white room. She tried to get up once again and was met by the same pain. She sighed in defeat and lay back down. Now that she was awake, her memory was slowly coming back. She closed her eyes and let out a long breath, ignoring her aching chest.

Mabel gasped and curled up into a ball. The pain was overwhelming and she was loosing blood fast. Very fast. Bill had decided to stab her, even after Dipper just admitted his crush. Mabel grit her teeth, angry at not only herself, but also at Bill for dismissing her brothers feelings. She squeezed her eyes shut and listened to the frantic cries coming from her family. The person who stood out was her girlfriend. It hadn't even been a week and yet she was about to die without having a proper relationship with the girl. A tear slid down her cheek. She was going to die.
"I've called an ambulance" Stan said, rushing back to Mabel and sitting beside her. He stared at the pool of blood forming beside her, biting his lip. If his niece died, not only would he live with the guilt of not saving her but her parents would kill him and he'd never hear from them again.
"Thanks" Mabel mumbled. She knew it was no use, she'd already accepted her death. Maybe it was for the greater good? Mabel was about to accept that when she heard another sharp sob come from Pacifica. She opened one eye to look her girlfriend in the eyes. Their gazes locked for a second before Pacifica turned to stare sadly at her feet. Maybe she'd also thought about her inevitable death?
Mabel was very aware that the deep gouge in her chest was worsening and that the pain was unbearable but she couldn't help but feel calm. What if she came back as an animal? She smiled to herself. Maybe a wolf? Or an owl, that'd be awesome!
"Mabel!" It was Dipper.
"Mmh?" She grumbled, looking up at her twin. Tears were streaming down his face, his eyes red from crying. He took in a shaky breath and bent down to somewhat her eye level.
"Look, please don't die on me" he brushed her bangs away from her eyes.
"I'll try not to" Mabel tried to smirk at her dorky brother but another bolt of pain stopped her. She grunted, curling up into a smaller ball.
A loud siren and screeching tires broke the awkward silence and sobbing family members. Everyone turned around to see the ambulance, except Mabel, who just groaned.
Two people stepped out with a stretcher. They carefully guided Mabel onto it and led her into the ambulance.

Oh yeah, that's what happened. Mabel sighed. At least she didn't die. But everything hurts.
A couple more minutes of staring at the ceiling, the woman walked back in with two figures walking behind her. She opened the door for them and nodded to them, muttering something before walking off.
Stan and Dipper stood beside Mabel's bed, tears in their eyes. They were glad she was okay and not dead.
"You're finally awake" Stan took off his glasses to rub his eyes. He was grinning goofily, giddy that she was alive.
Dipper nodded, helping her sit up for the third time. He fluffed up her pillows and set them on the bed. She winced and pulled herself up.
"Finally?" Mabel raised am eyebrow "how long was I out for?" She watched Stans expression falter, turning into a slight frown.
He shrugged, counting something on his fingers before he looked back at Mabel, his blue eyes wide "at least a week?"
Mabel let out a small, inaudible gasp. A week? No wonder they looked as if they were about to break down.
"Oh..." Mabel stared down at her crisp bedsheets, trying to avoid eye contact with the two. "I'm sorry..."
"Don't apologize Mabel" Dipper walked over and sat down in a chair next to her bed. He let out a shaky breath.
Mabel hadn't forgot about Dipper's confession to Bill. She almost felt sorry for her brother.
She smiled at started to question them about the past week. They both started talking.
Sorry if this is kinda short, I start school again tomorrow so the updates will probably be less frequent.
