Zephyr's P.O.V.

We made it to the prison but we didn't have a plan just yet, we had to come up with some ideas to bust Dipper and whoever else was in this prison. It's just that Kreis knows all of us and has a bounty on all of our heads. I couldn't focus either, innocent people that I knew was in danger and were getting killed. I really was my father's son. It wasn't long before Elise entered my room though.

"Hey Zephyr, what's on your mind"? she asked me sitting in a seat in front of me.

"I'm stressed is all. I'm trying to figure out a way to bust Dipper out of prison but I can't think of a successful way."

"Hm, how about instead of busting Dipper out, we bust someone else in."

"Elise what are you talking about"?

"I'm saying one of our people go and work for the prison and we start getting a way of finding different advantage points of busting Dipper out."

"Elise, you're the smartest person I know, you know that."

"Of course I know that, you tell me whenever we get the chance around each other."

"Ok, so we have the plan to bust someone in, but who are we busting in, Kreis has facial recognition of everyone in the organization, the guards would get suspicious and our plan backfires."

"Aren't you forgetting someone, someone new in the organization. He joined not too long ago, in fact he joined a week before the ambush."

"Wait, I think I know who you're talking about. Xander, right"?

"Yes Xander, Mabel's boyfriend. All he has to do is get the job patrol around the yard and find a plan to escape and once we're ready, boom, lights go out and Dipper makes his getaway."

"Not a bad idea at all, you think it'll work"?

"Well I hope it'll work, it's the only way without a battle going on."

"Well then let's tell the crew what we're doing."

We got up and exited my room, then I called a meeting in the meeting room. As the last person sat down I got ready to prepare my speech and put our plan in motion.

"Ok guys, Elise and I have figured out a plan to bust Dipper out, but in order to do that we need to bust someone in." After saying that everyone was confused on where I was going with this. "It's simple, Xander you have been voluntold to get a job as one of the prison guards and find out ways for Dipper to escape. Don't forget to play the part as a fierce prison guard, but also remember to tell Dipper the plan and let him know that his family is here and we will bust him out of there."

"Ok, but what if Dipper doesn't believe me? What if Dipper loses all hope"? Xander questioned. I knew he would ask this so I had already had an idea for what he should say.

"Just tell Dipper that the lost hope is not lost, and if that doesn't work tell him his daughter is alive and waiting for you and I'm here to make sure you two are reunited."

"Ok, I remember that. Quick question though, what if I don't get the job"?

"Go on a rampage and get yourself thrown into prison, there you will work with Dipper to find a way of escaping."

"Got it. Another quick question. When do we start"?

"How's now work, we drop you off and you walk to the front gate and get started with work, or prison life."

"I like the idea, but I don't want Xander to get hurt too badly, isn't there another way"? Mabel asked not wanting the plan to be put into play.

"Mabel, I'm sorry, but no there's no other way. If there was we'd do it straight away."

"What about a battle, why can't we start a battle and have Dipper sneakily escape while the guards are distracted."

"We can't let that happen, too many lives are at stake here. Those people are innocent and deserve a chance of freedom. And in order to give them a chance we can't let a battle go on."

"Ok, I guess it's fine, but if Dipper doesn't come back I will be so mad."

"Relax, Dipper's coming back, for my name isn't Zephyr Van Over."

Meanwhile

Dipper's P.O.V.

This sucks, we have such a bad schedule. I don't hardly have any free time. I have about two hours to myself, it's terrible. I'm going a little stir-crazy too, I've been talking to myself and every time I do, the guards beat me. I've been hit, slap, even kicked, I'm surprised I'm not dead yet.

"Hey Dipper, you feeling okay, you've been tossing and turning for a while now"? Terrance asked me.

"No, I'm not okay, I need to get out of here, I'm going crazy." I responded.

"Dipper, calm down. You're going to be fine, just think of your daughter."

After he said that I started to calm down a little and laid down and slowly drifted to sleep.

Meanwhile

Xander's P.O.V.

"Mabel, I'll be fine, you don't have to worry about anything." Mabel was crying because I was going to the prison and she didn't want to lose me.

"Xander, you don't understand. You're the first guy I've had real feelings for, if I lose you, I don't know what I'd do." She hugged me and started crying on my shoulder. I hugged her and began to comfort her.

"Mabel, I have to do this, Kreis doesn't know me so I can get in there and not be suspicious towards her. Don't worry, I WILL bring Dipper back and we will bring Kreis down."

"Ok, but if you're not back in one week, you are so in trouble."

"Yes ma'am." I said jokingly, she chuckled and hugged me one last time before I walked off the ship and walked towards the prison.

After walking to the prison, one of the guards spotted me, at first he looked like he was dangerous, but when he spoke he sounded like a nice guy.

"Hey, what can I do ya for"? The man asked.

"My name is Xander Sanchez and I'd like to apply as a prison guard."

"You sure, this job is the worst but if ya gotta get money, ya gotta get money." He disappeared from my sight as it looked like he walked down a flight of stairs. After a minute the door in front of me opened and the man was there. "Come on in, I'll introduce ya to the boss."

I walked through the door and shut the door behind me and followed the man. He brought me to an office and he knocked on the door. "WHO'S THERE AND WHAT DO YOU WANT"? A voice was heard and the door slammed open nearly hitting me in the face. "Oh, Pedro it's you, what do you want"? He asked the man that brought me in as he puffed on a cigar.

"Boss, this is Xander Sanchez, and he's willing to work here."

The man looked at me and blew the smoke in my face. "You. Want to work here"?

"Yes sir." I responded sounding as gentlemanly as I could.

"Well, you're hired. Pedro since the man you were bunking with quit, he's going to sleep in your dorm."

"I got him sir, ya don't have to worry about anything."

"Ok, make sure he knows all the rules and consequences."

"Yes sir, right away sir."

The boss shut the door and Pedro led me to the room I'd be staying in for a while until I broke Dipper out. As we approached the dorm instead of telling me the rules he gave me some suggestions on what to do and what not to do. I felt like I could trust him.

"Here we are, our dorms. Hey, ya seem lost in thought, what are ya thinkin about." he was on to me, but I didn't want to lie to him.

"Can I get settled in first, then I'll explain." He nodded his head and we walked into the dorm. Wasn't much but it was enough to live in for a while. As I got adjusted to the room Pedro grabbed two sodas and gave me one. "Thanks."

"No problem, now," he took a swig of his soda before finishing his sentence, "what were ya thinkin about"?

I decided to open up to him and tell him what I was really here for. "Ok, to tell you the truth, I trust you, and I didn't come here to get a job. I came here to bust a friend out, his name is Dipper Pines, you heard of him"?

"Dipper Pines huh, hm. Yeah I've heard of him, what's his importance"?

"Well, he's the right hand man of the resistance, and the brother of my girlfriend."

"Sounds pretty important. Just a quick question though, why did ya tell me this if I work at this prison"?

"Like I said, I trust you. I think you're the type of guy that doesn't want to deal with this prison anymore."

"Well duh, I've been working at this prison since it opened up 17 years ago, when Kreis took control of the universes. I've hated the she-demon ever since."

"Well maybe it's time for us to retire, we just need a plan to get Dipper out of here, do you think you can get me close to him"?

"Who do ya think ya talking to, of course I can get ya close to Dipper." He took another swig of his soda. Pedro looked like someone who wanted to rebel, maybe after all this is over, he can join us.

Dipper's P.O.V.

I woke up at 7 a.m. like we're supposed to, only this time I was up before the others. As we lined up in formation the guards walked down the line and stopped in front of me yet again.

"Get the other prisoners over to the cafeteria, let me talk to this one in private." The guard said a little intimidating. As the rest of the prisoners went to the cafeteria, I was left back here with one of the guards. "Do you know why I'm here boy"?

At first I didn't answer him, but instead of having troubles with this guy I followed suit, "No sir, I don't."

"I'm here to bust you out." Wait did I hear him correctly, did he say he was busting me out?

"Hold on back up, what are you talking about"?

"I was assigned to take role as a prison guard sneak into the prison and bust you out, part of my first actual duties while being part of the resistance." Now he was saying he was in the resistance, what does this mean?

"If you're in the resistance tell me something that I would know."

"Well, first the lost hope is not lost, it's still together. And the brains of this operation was your daughter, Elise Atlantic Pines." As he said her name I started wailing. "Hey Dipper, it's okay, she's fine, along with Mabel."

"Mabel and my daughter is alive, what about Pacifica"?

"No one has seen her, it's as if she was at the battle but disappeared all of a sudden. I'm sorry."

"That's okay. I didn't get your name, what was it."

"I'm Xander Sanchez, Mabel's boyfriend."

???'s P.O.V.

"How did you not remember your own name"? The blonde girl asked me.

"Well I'm sorry I hit my head during the ferocious battle with that Kreis girl apparently. You don't expect for the main antagonist to be a female." I answered her. "You said that I had children, how many do I have, and what are their names"?

"You have two children, one boy and one girl. The boy is fifteen years old and the girl is twelve. Their names are..."

Did you really think I was going to explain more, no. I give subtle hints not blatant hints. You just have to pay attention to the words they say.
