Dipper tried to get back into the manor but the Northwest's security men did their job quite well so he decided to wait until Gideon left the party to attack him. It a took a very strong amount of patience but eventually he left the manor and he was alone which meant he could kill him without fear of witnesses. He changed into a wolf and stalked him from behind the trees, his yellow eyes gleaming and his fangs bared. He was just about to pounce on him until he saw the sliver braces he wore on his wrists. Though he was half human sliver still posed as a threat to him which meant if Dipper was going to kill him he had to wait for a time when those braces were removed.

Back in Maine Solomon Van Helsing heard about the strange duo of the devil and nun who had been purging monsters and devils. Curious he decided to phone the order in New York the Frida worked for.

"Hello?" Sister Nora said.

"Hello Nora." He said.

"Solomon what a lovely surprise." She groaned. "What do you want? Killed any vampires lately?"

"Business has been slow so far Maine has been attacked by devils."

"Really?"

"Yes and I heard the funniest thing. That they were being destroyed by one of your nuns and another devil."

"So what's your point?"

"How could you allow one of your nuns to work with a devil?"

"Technically he's half devil and who works with my organization is none of your business. Besides you're a funny one to talk."

"What do you mean?"

"I know that you're group has recently allowed a vampire to work with you."

"He's half human."

"So we have the same case."

"Yes it appears so and Maine is infested with vampires and devils."

"And?"

"And it gives me an idea."

"Oh boy that's not good."

"Trust me it's a good one. What if my slayer and vampire were to work with your nun and devil?"

"I'd say how exactly do you plan to convince them to work with each other?"

"I have my ways now contact your hired help and tell them to meet me in town for a drink."

...

"I am not working with a blood sucking rat with wings." Manny said taking a sip of rum.

"Um hello I'm right here." Steven said. "And for the record bats and rats are two entirely different species."

"You're both rodents and you're both vermin so I see no difference."

"At least I don't eat sardines out of the garbage."

"How did you know I did that?!"

"I didn't until now." He snickered. "Did the kitty like his fishy?"

"Dirty rat!"

"Alright you two knock it off." Solomon said. "Now I know you two aren't exactly friends but you both want to rid the world of two of it's greatest evils vampires and devils."

"Yes." Steven said.

"No." Manny said. "I'm just being forced to do so by a loud mouth nun."

"I heard that." Frida said.

"Ahh! Where the hell did you come from?" He asked her.

"You want the actually definition or the child version?"

"What I mean is what are you doing here? You're not old enough to drink!"

"Doesn't mean I can't be here and Manny punch yourself in the face!"

"Ooof!" He shouted as he was forced to obey her order.

"Oh man I wish I could do that to him." Steven said. "So nice to meet you again nun girl."

"It's Frida and we've met remember?"

"Oh yeah you fainted."

"Hey don't let my moment of swooning trick you because I'm actually a lot more tough than most people think." She said. "Anyway I don't mind working with bat boy and if Manny doesn't want to then I'll just make him. After all he is my personal manservant."

"I am not!" He argued.

"What about you Steven?" Solomon said. "Would you and Connie mind working with them?"

"Sure. When do we start?"

"Well first I need to see how well you two work together so the six of us will be going on a little trip."

"Six of us? Who else is coming?" Manny asked.

"Oh yeah I almost forgot to tell you, if the four of you are going to work together to slay vampires and devils you'll need someone with incredible senses, speed, and the ability to communicate with animals. Which is why I picked up this guy." He then lifted up the unconscious body of Dipper.

"Oh great! I get to work with the rat and the dog!"

"Is that a tranquilizer in his butt?" Connie asked.

"Yes I shot it in him after he tried to eat me in blind hunger rage. Don't worry he'll be okay."

"He's not gonna eat us when he wakes up is he? Because I am no one's lunch." Steven said.

"Don't worry when I'm done with him he won't have another one of those moments."

The next day he took the five of them into the woods and found a secluded, flat ground area to set up a camp.

"Alright now the five of you need to practice working together so tonight the five of you will have to fight a trial demon." Solomon said.

"What is that?" Manny asked.

"A very dangerous and strong demon however it lacks the trickery, cleverness, and deceit of most demons so they are often captured by exorcists and used for training new recruits." Solomon said. "They only attack at night and prefer to rely on brute strength rather than intelligence. They associate with snakes, bats, wolves, and spiders."

"Spiders?!" Dipper squeaked, turning a little pale.

"You okay wolf boy?" Manny asked.

"Uh I'm fine it's just that...I have a teeny tiny fear of bugs."

"Seriously? A feral and vicious werewolf is scared of bugs. And I thought I was pathetic."

"Hey!"

Steven started to laugh.

"Steven!"

"Sorry dude but that's kind of funny."

"Like you two aren't scared of anything."

"Yeah but at least our fears are rational."

"Bugs is a rational fear."

"Is not."

"Is to."

Is not."

"Is to."

"Enough! Now you all have three goals tonight." Solomon said. "Set up camp, take down the demon, and bond. Your supplies are in this bag and Connie I have given you a new weapon to try out, it's called a light sword."

"What's it do?" She asked.

"It's a blade that projects sunlight, it'll burn the flesh of any bat or vampire."

"Cool."

"Now all of you try to get along and hopefully the five of you won't be dead by morning."

"Wait what?!" The five of them gasped.

But he just dropped off his supplies for them to use and transported out of there.

"Did he just leave us here to fend for ourselves?" Connie asked.

"Yes, yes he did." Steven said.

"What does he mean dead by morning?" Dipper said.

"Okay no one panic I've taken down one of these before." Frida said. "They're total pushovers so no one is going to die tonight. Now who knows how to set up a tent?"

For the next six hours they began trying to set up tents. They had only two tents so they insisted that the boys sleep in one tent and the girls sleep in another and by they I mean Frida and Connie.

"Man I can't get this." Frida struggled trying to get their tent to stay up.

"Here let me help." Connie said straightening the pole inside.

"Thanks. You go camping a lot?"

"I did with my uncle. We used to go camping all the time when I was little but then I got into some poison ivy and my parents forbade me from ever going camping again."

"Wasn't that a bit too dramatic?"

"Yeah my parents were pretty much afraid of anything and everything happening to me. They didn't let me leave the house til I was six and I was home schooled til I was eight. When I told them I wanted to be a vampire slayer they thought I was crazy and tried to send me away to a boarding school."

"Okay no offense but are your parents crazy?"

"Probably but they mean well. What are your parents like? Do they live at the order you work for?"

"No. Actually they died when I was eleven years old, Father Gardner and Sister Nora took me into the order a year after that."

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay, they're in heaven. They'll never suffer again but as for me well...I've kind of gotten used to suffering."

"What suffering?"

"I...I don't want to get into it." She sighed. "Let's just say after I lost my folks things just went down hill for me."

"I understand and again I'm sorry. So if you don't mind me asking why are you a nun working with a devil?"

"Well for starters Manny isn't a full fledged devil, he's a half human and well Father Gardener assigned him to protect me for reasons only God knows anyway why are you a slayer working with a vampire?"

"Well like your dark partner mine is also half human and he saved my life, twice actually. He doesn't drink human blood and he really cares for humanity so I guess we're kind of friends."

"You know what's funny?"

"What?"

"Fate paired us with beings we're supposed to hunt and kill."

"Yes that is funny but I don't think there as a evil as most people say they are or at least not Steven."

"Yeah Manny is kind of the same way. I know he comes off as a jerk but I think he's actually kind of sweet when he wants to be."

"A sweet devil?"

"Crazy but possible."

"Get your disgusting teeth off my sleeping bag or I'll tear out your carcass with my bare hands!" Manny cried as he tried to pull his sleeping bag out of Dipper's jaw tug a war style.

"Then again I could be wrong." Frida said.

The two girls giggled and continued to set up their tent. Once they were done they decided to go look for some food.

"Why can't we get along like them?" Steven asked watching the two girls leave.

"Because we're boys." Manny said. "Also I don't like people."

"You like Frida." Steven said.

"What?"

"Well that's because she's his girlfriend." Dipper said.

"No she's not!"

"I find that hard to believe." Steven said.

"Me too." Dipper said.

"You two don't know what you're talking about."

"Don't play dumb, we know how you get around a beautiful woman. You really should be ashamed of yourself. Seducing an innocent nun, treating her like she's some prostitute."

"Yeah that's pretty low even for you."

"Shut up!" Manny said. "I'm not seducing anyone! Least of all her!"

"Then why do you protect her?" Dipper asked.

"We've been through this I was forced to by a priest."

"Then what was with the whole freak out when we first met?"

"What are you talking about dog?"

"I do believe you said and quote 'None of you are to touch this woman.'"

"Yes you did say that and you threatened to eat us if we ever went near her." Steven added.

"Well...That's...It's only because...Look I don't want to tell you why."

"Why?"

"Because it's none of your business."

"Admit it, she's just another virgin who you want to taint." Steven said.

"Another poor girl you want to treat like a whore." Dipper said.

In one swift move Manny grabbed them by their troats and began choking them while glaring at them with blazing green eyes. Then sent them flying up into the air and they landed in a nearby lake. They pulled themselves out dripping wet.

"I didn't call her a whore." Dipper coughed. "I just said he would treat her like one."

"Never seen him get that angry over a woman before except his fiance."

"You mean ex fiance. She died remember? Or at least that's what he told us."

"I doubt she's still alive it's been a hundred years."

"Say did you ever meet her?"

"No I don't even know what she looks like. But I do know he always keeps a picture of her everywhere he goes but he refuses to let anyone see it."

"Really? Steven my friend how would you like to go on a scavenger hunt?"

"Sure! What are we looking for?"

"A picture of Manny's ex fiance."

"Uh no."

"Why not?"

"Because I want to live."

"Oh come on I just want to know what she looks like."

"Dipper if he catches us with that picture he'll destroy us."

"Consider it a bonding exercise. You and I can work together and hey we can understand Manny better."

"Okay. So what do we do?"

"We'll wait til he's busy getting dinner then we'll start searching his stuff."

"Oh boy I know I'm not gonna like this."

When it got late they caught fish from the lake and found some blackberries to eat for dinner. They started a fire, Manny cooked the fish, and ate it with the blackberries. A strange meal but good.

"This fish is pretty good." Connie said.

"I have to admit this is delicious." Steven said. "I didn't know you could cook."

"It's one of my many talents." Manny said. "So when do you guys think that trial demon will show up? It's already dark and I haven't sensed any demonic aura."

"Yeah and I haven't smelled any demon scent." Dipper said. "Steven could you stop tickling my hand it's creepy."

"Dipper I'm over here."

Dipper looked down to see a spider on his hand.

"AHH! Get off me! Get off me!"

He fell back waving and kicking and screaming like a girl.The other four laughed at him as he wiggled around the ground trying to kill the spider.

"Die! Die! Die!" He shouted stomping on the spider.

"I think it's dead." Connie said.

"Oh man you really are scared of bugs!" Frida laughed.

"Hey maybe we should put a worm on him while he's asleep tonight." Manny suggested.

"Don't you dare!" Just then he froze and his ears twitched. "I hear something."

Everyone froze and silence fell. All was quiet, Dipper heard footsteps and Manny sensed demonic aura. Frida quietly reached for her gun while Connie prepared to draw her new sword. There was a loud crack and a figure, large, tall, and black. It had no eyes just a large jaw containing endless teeth and a long slimy tongue.

"Frida is that the demon?" Manny said.

"Yeah but normally they're not that big." She gulped.

"Okay no one panic." Connie said. "We just take him down like any other thing we've fought."

Dipper changed into a wolf and lunged for arm while Steven threw holy water. Frida began shooting her bloodstone bullets at it but nothing seemed to be working. The creature hissed and threw Dipper against a tree then released a swarm of bats that attacked them.

"Hey! Ow! Back off!" They kept saying trying to swat them away.

"Steven you're related to these things! Talk to them!" Manny said.

"Just because I'm a vampire doesn't mean I speak bat!" Steven argued.

"We need to get out of here." Connie drew her new sword which was a slender blade that had a bright, hot glow radiating off of it. It released a powerful bright light that scared the bats away giving them a chance to run away.

"I don't get it this thing should have fallen down by now." Frida said running.

"Are you sure this is a trial demon?" Manny asked.

"I'm not so sure anymore."

"You think Solomon released the wrong one by accident?" Connie asked.

"No idea but if this thing is more advanced than normal we should probably get out of here!" Steven shouted.

With that said they ran for their lives.

"Do you think we lost it?" Steven asked.

"I don't know man just keep running!" Dipper said.

The sound of large footsteps and bats screeching kept them running like the hell was after them. They didn't stop until they reached a ditch that was filled with spiders.

"Oh holy hell! There's tons of them!" Dipper shouted turning white as a ghost and shaking. "Oh my God! I think I'm gonna piss myself!"

"Well hold it in and man up! Because we need to cross that!" Manny said.

"You mean we have to walk through that?!"

"Well we can but the girls can't."

"Those are demonic spiders from hell. If they bite humans they die instantly but we bi-deities are immune to their venom." Steven said. "But not to the pain of the bites and it hurts like a bitch."

"We'll have to carry the girls across." Manny said lifting Frida on to his shoulders.

"Uh...Are you sure this isn't a little inappropriate?" Frida asked nervously.

"No. Why?"

"Because you're head is between my legs."

"Oh shut up!"

He made his way down the ditch and into the swarm of spiders. They began began biting at his legs. Their bites felt like fire on his skin but he ignored the pain however Frida kept wiggling around.

"Hey stop moving." He said.

"I can't help it! There's nothing to hold on to."

"Well you better stop squirming because when you do I can see your underwear."

"AHH! Don't look!" She covered his eyes and clutched his head with her legs.

"Hey! Let go of my head woman! I can't see!" He shouted.

"That's the idea you pervert!"

"Oh I know I'm half devil but do I really deserve this?"

It took awhile but they finally made it across. Next up was Steven who was carrying Connie on his shoulders.

"Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Oh sweet mother of Jesus this is painful!" He cried.

"Oh dear! I'm slipping!" Connie said. She fell backwards, Steven quickly grabbed her ankles and she hung off his shoulders, her face just above the spiders. "Oh God! Situation! Situation! We have a situation!"

"Hold on!"

"To what?"

"Anything!"

She grabbed something.

"Ahh! That's my butt!"

"Ewww!"

"Hurry up already!" Manny shouted.

They made it across in a very awkward way.

"Okay Dipper your go." Steven cried.

"Do I have to?" He said.

"Not unless you want to be demon chow! Now get moving!"

"Can't one of you carry me?"

"No!" Manny and Steven said.

"Oh shit." Dipper was white the whole time he was walking through the spiders. "Gross! Gross! Creepy! Crawly! Eeee!"

"Oh shut up and be a man!" Manny said.

When he came out he dropped down and began rolling around while screaming.

"You're such a girl." Steven joked.

"I am not."

"Um guys, demon at 8:00!" Connie pointed out to the demon coming.

"Run for it!" Frida cried and they ran off again.
