Your POV

The twins, Stan, and I were all watching Duck-tective in the living room when the doorbell rang.

Stan: *opens the door* Welcome to a world of mystery!!!

Man: Stan Pines?

Stan: The tax collector!!! You found me!!! *throws a bomb of dust that covers the man's view as Stan runs back into the living room where he throws away a painting/wooden box which hid a bag of money, he then starts pressing random stones on the wall* Which one of these is the trapdoor?!?

Man: Mr. Pines. *enters the house* I'm from the winning house coupon savers contest, and you are our big winner!!!

A man with a camera and two women carrying a large check came through the park.

Stan: My one and only dream, which was to posses money, has come true!!!

Dipper: We're rich!!! I'm gonna get a butler!!!

Mabel: I'm gonna buy a talking horse!!!

You: I'm getting a(n) (whatever it is you desire to get)!!!

Man: *takes out a paper* Just sign here for the money.

Stan: You bet!!! *signs the paper*

Gideon: *comes through the check breaker it* Ha, Stanford you fool!!! You just signed over the Mystery Shack to little ol' me!!! *does some weird dance* Ha-cha-cha-cha-cha!!!

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *gasp*

Stan: Uh, might wanna take another look there.

Gideon: "Shack is hear by signed over to- Suck a lemon little man?!?!?!?"

Stan: *laughs*

Gideon: *rips the paper in half* How dare you?!?

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *laugh*

Gideon: I am not a threat to be taken lightly!!! *raises his arms* Come here, hon, I need your arms.

Man: *picks up Gideon*

Gideon: I'll get you, Stanford Pines, I'll get you all!!!

Man: *leaves with his crew and Gideon*

You, Dipper, Mabel, and Stan: ...

Stan: Wanna see what else in on tv?

You: Sure.

Dipper: Yeah.

Mabel: Yeah, alright. My favorite part's the theme song.

Later on Mabel and Pine were playing chess while Soos did some work and I slouched around.

Mabel: *moving a pawn* Little guy to black space nine!!!

Dipper: It's a pawn, that's not your color, and stop stealing the tiny horses!

Mabel: *with four horse pieces in her sweater's pocket* They like it better in here!!! Don't you, babies?!? *makes horse noises*

Dipper: *moves a pawn and knocks over the king* And checkmate!

Mabel: What?!? Boo!!!

Dipper: *marking something on a notebook* Oh, Dipper wins again!!!

Soos: Hey Mabel, can you get me that brain in a jar? The lady one?

Dipper: I got it.

Soos: Thanks, but Mabel's taller.

Dipper: What?!? No she's not, we're the same height!!! We've always been!!!

Soos: Better check again, dude. *jumps down from the counter and push Dipper and Mabel together back to back, then takes a measuring tape and checks their heights* Yep, she's got exactly one millimeter on you.

You: *snicker as you hold your laugh*

Dipper: What?!?

Mabel: Whoa, don't you see what's happening, Dipper?!? This millimeter is just the beginning!!! I'm evolving into the superior sibling!!! Bigger!!! Stronger!!!

Soos: Like some kind of Alpha Twin!!!

Mabel: Alpha twin!!! Alpha twin!!!

Dipper: C'mon, guys, nobody even uses millimeters! That only makes you taller than me in Canada!

Mabel: You know, Dipper? I always wanted a little brother, who knew I already had one?!? *laughs* Yeah!!!

Stan: *walks in* I was awoken by the sound of mockery! Where is it? Show me the object of ridicule!

Mabel: I'm taller than Dipper!!!

Dipper: By one millimeter!!!

Stan: Hey hey, don't get... short with your sister!!! *laughs*

Mabel: Now Grunkle Stan, I hope you don't think... little of him!!!

Stan: *laughs* Yeah!!! And and uh, he's short!!!

Mabel and Stan: *laugh*

Soos: Dude, maybe you should lay off a tiny bit.

Stan: Ha, tiny!!! Soos is in on it now!!!

Mabel and Stan: *laugh*

You: *roll your eyes in annoyance*

Dipper: *walks away*

Soos: No- no, I didn't mean that!

Mabel: Dipper will forget! He's got a- three, two, one,-

Mabel and Stan: Short-term memory!!! *laughs*

Mabel: POW!!! We are on fire!!!

Mabel and Stan: *high five*

Stan: *quickly pulls away* Ow- Ooh- ah...

Mabel: I high five hard.

Dipper's POV

Stupid Stan and Mabel, always teasing me over everything. I needed to make myself taller.

I went upstairs and saw my journal on top of the shelf. Great...

Dipper: *jumps to try and reach the journal* Ugh, c'mon!

You: *leaning against the doorway* Need help?

Dipper: AH!!! *sees you* ... *sigh* I guess... But what can you do? You're shorter than me-

You: *walk over and hit the shelve with your hip, the book falling and landing on your hand*

Dipper: ... oh. ... thanks.

You: *give him the book*

Dipper: *starts searching for something in the book* There's gotta be something here that'll make me taller...

You: I don't see what the big deal is with being taller. I'm shorter than you are and I'm ok with it.

Dipper: Well, I'm not ok with Mabel being taller than me.

You: *roll your eyes*

Dipper: *stops in a page* "Legends of miniature buffaloes and giant squirrels have led me to believe they're our height altering properties hidden deep within the forest."

You: I know where that is, it's easy to get to. Let's go.

Dipper: Wait, what?

You: I'm not letting you go on another adventure without me. Mabel told me how you brought a video game character to life and went time traveling!!!

Dipper: ... Ok, fine, let's just go.

Your POV

And so Pine Hat packed a few things in a backpack and we were off on our quest!!! We were walking down a path in the woods at the time.

Dipper: We should be near.

You: Wow, it's been like a year since I came to this part of the woods!

Dipper: Have you ever found unusual sized creatures?

You: Not really.

Dipper: Well, hopefully we'll find at least someth- AH-!!!

Just then Dipper tripped on a twig and stumbles down a small hill. I couldn't help but laugh before sliding down.

Dipper: Ow...

You: You ok?

Dipper: Yep... fine...

You: !!! ...

Dipper: Uh, (y/n)...?

You: Don't. Move.

Dipper: U-uh, w-

You: Shh!!!

Dipper: ...

You: *point at his chest where a miniature deer stood*

Dipper: *slightly gasps at the sight*

Deer: *runs over to his miniature deer family*

Dipper: *stands up*

You: Whoa....!

Dipper: *sees a miniature eagle flying by his nose*

You and Dipper: *get startled by a sudden rawr, then see a mountain lion*

Dipper: Is that mountain lion tiny or just far away in perspective?

Mountain Lion: *leaps to attack*

You: PERSPECTIVE!!! PERSPECTIVE!!!!!!

You and Dipper: AHHHH!!!!!

Mountain Lion: *passes through a pink light shrinking into miniature size and jumping into Dipper's vest making him laugh, then climbs to his finger and bites him*

Dipper: Still hurts, but less!

Mountain Lion: *runs off*

You: *walk over to some crystal* Whoa, that's so cool...!!! I've never seen these before...!!!

Butterfly: *passes through a pink light making it shrink, then passes through a blue light making it grow giant and knock down a tree*

Dipper: What...?!? *kneels down to inspect a small crystal, then pulls it out with some tools*

You: Uh, Pine Hat...

Dipper: Yeah?

You: I'm not so sure about this anymore, there's a reason they're down here.

Dipper: What?!? C'mon, you can't back out now!!!

You: ... *sigh* Ok, I'll let you take it.

Dipper: Yes!

You: But promise me you won't abuse of it, don't make yourself grow a thousand feet just cuz Mabel grew one, ok?

Dipper: Relax, I won't.

We went back to the shack. Pine Hat taped the crystal unto a flashlight and now it was some shrinking and growing device which he used to make himself grow an extra millimeter. I was down at the gift shop when...

Mabel: I've been buying big clothes, I'll grow into them.

Dipper: *walks in* Hey guys, notice anything different about me?

Soos: *stares at Dipper* Holy hot sauce! You've grown an extra millimeter!

Mabel: W-w-what?!?

Soos: *measures Dipper with a ruler*

Dipper: What can I say, sis? Growth spurt.

Mabel: Yeah, mine happened first. I'm gonna be taller in the end, it's science, Dipper.

Dipper: What? But we're the same height now!

Mabel: Alpha twin!!! Alpha twin!!!

Dipper: Oh yeah? Something tells me I've got another growth spurt coming on right now! *storms out*

You: *glare at the doorway before following Dipper upstairs* Pine Hat,  what are you-? *notice he's much taller* Oh my Jesus!!!

Dipper: Oh, hey (y/n)!

You: You use the flashlight again?!? Are you kidding me?!? This is exactly what I told you not to do!!!

Mabel: *storms in* Give it up, Dipper!!! *notices Dipper's new height and gasps* What happened?!?

Dipper: You know, puberty and stuff.

You: *glare harder at Dipper*

Mabel: That doesn't make any sense!!! Just a second ago you were- wait a minute!!! This is some kind of magic-y thing, isn't it?!? Was it a wizard or something?!? There's a wizard in this closet, isn't there?!? Isn't there?!?

Dipper: What?!? No!!!

Mabel: You're telling me there is not a wizard in this closet?!? You're telling me that if I open this door right now-!!!

Dipper: Fine, open it!!!

Mabel: *opens the door revealing nothing but clothes* An invisible wizard?!? Really, Dipper?!?

You: *face palm*

Mabel: Does he only respond to incantations?!? Excpecto wizzarium!!! Wizle!!! Wizar!!!

Dipper: It's not a wizard!!! I grew myself using this magic flashlight!!!

Mabel: *peeks at Dipper* ... Let me see that thing!!! *runs to Dipper*

Dipper: Ah!!! *runs out of the room with the flashlight*

Mabel: *to the closet* I'll be back for you later! *runs after Dipper*

I let out a sigh and rub my temples. I knew I shouldn't have let Pine Hat take that crystal. I ran outside to see them fighting over the flashlight while using the flashlight.

I had enough.

I went in a snatched and rose it up, trying to keep it away from them.

You: Guys, c'mon, this is getting annoying!!!

Dipper: *tackles you and reaches for the flashlight* Gimme that!!!

You: No!!!

Mabel: *tackles you and Dipper making you drop the flashlight*

???: My my, what delightful manner of a dohickery is this?

You: *now standing up with the twins, whisper* Crap, it's Gideon!!!

Mabel: *whispers* Maybe he didn't see us use it and doesn't know it's a magic flashlight that can grow and shrink thinks.

Gideon: *literally in front of them*

You and Dipper: ...

You: Wow.

Dipper: ...really?

Gideon: *pushes the button a few times and giggles*

You, Dipper, and Mabel: No no no no no-!!!!!!!

Gideon: *shrinks all three of you to miniature size*

Dipper and Mabel: *hug each other still look at Gideon a bit scared*

You: *glare daggers at Gideon*

Gideon: *giggles (which sounds like an evil laugh to you because of your size), then traps you all in a jar*

~in Gideon's room~

Gideon: *shakes the three of you out of the jar and unto his desk with a glare* You three!!!

Mabel: W-w-what are you gonna do to us...?!?

Gideon: *chuckles* Why Mabel!!! I wouldn't hurt a hair in your eedy beedy head!!! If you agree to be my queen!!!

Mabel: We live in a democracy!!! And never!!!

Gideon: Maybe you'll change your mind after... this!!! *picks up Mabel by her sweater*

Mabel: *struggles* No!!! I will fight you until the day I-!!! *gasp* Gummy koalas!!!

Gideon: *drops her in a Gummy Koala bag*

Mabel: *starts to eat a Gummy Koala*

Gideon: *puts the bag down* As for you two, *takes a desk light and points it at you and Dipper* Tell me!!! How exactly did you come up with this magic item, hm?!? Somebody tell you about it?!? Did you... read about it somewhere?!?

Dipper: *looks at his vest, then at you with worry*

You: *nod*

Dipper: *whispers* Lean closer and I'll tell you!

Gideon: *leans closer* Well, don't mind if I-!

You: *press the button of a horn nearby and making the loud sound ring beside Gideon's ear*

Gideon: AHH!!! *turns around covering his eyes as he breathes heavily, then turns around about to punch you and Dipper* I COULD SQUASH YOU RIGHT NOW!!!

You and Dipper: *start backing up*

Gideon: *thinks for a bit before putting his arms down* Steel yourself, Gideon. You can use them. You can use them...!!! *goes to another table*

You: ... he's got issues...

Dipper: Definitely...

Gideon: *takes a phone and calls someone*

???: Eh.

Gideon: Stanford Pines, listen to me very closely. I have your nice, your nephew, and their little friend too! Hand over the deed to the Mystery Shack right now or great harm will befall them!!! ...this is Gideon, by the way.

Stan: *laughs* Oh yeah, this is gonna be your worst plot yet! They're fine. I saw them playing in the yard minutes ago!

Gideon: I have them in my possession!!! You don't believe?!? I will text you a photo!!!

Stan: Text me a photo? Now you're not even speaking English! *hangs up*

Gideon: But-!!! Hello?!? H-hello!!! *throws the phone in frustration which breaks against the wall, the pieces about to fall on you*

You: AH-!!!

Dipper: *grabs your wrist and pulls you to the side, avoiding the broken phone pieces*

Gideon: *chuckles, then chuckles louder, then cackles, than laughs maniacally* What am I doing?!? I don't need ransom!!! *picks up the flashlight* I have this!!! I'll shrink Stan and take the shack for myself!!! You'll be helpless to stop me!!! *takes four wooden dolls of you, Dipper, Mabel, and Stan* And if any of you step out a line... *rips their heads out* SMASH!!! *throws them on the table*

You, Dipper, and Mabel: !!!!!

Gideon: *laughs maniacally*

Bud: *from downstairs* GIDEON!!! THE ICE CREAM TRUCK IS HERE!!!

Gideon: OOH, COMING!!! *giggles, but remembers about you and the twins, the he takes his hamster and lets him free near you all* Guard'm, Cheekums. I'M COMING!!! *leaves*

Dipper: ...........

You: ... *poke the hamster*

Cheekums: *squeaks*

You: Aww!

Dipper: *runs over to Mabel* We gotta get out of here and save Stan!!!

Mabel: I know!!! I will see you later! *puts the Gummy Koala's head on her pocket*

Dipper: Ok, how are we gonna do this? Gideon's got magic and like a zillion inches on us. On the bright side at least we're the same height now!

Mabel: Actually...!

Dipper and Mabel: *look at you*

You: ...we're seriously doing this?

Dipper: *glares at you*

Mabel: *smiles at you*

You: ... *sigh* Ok. *take a ruler from the pencil case and place it behind Dipper and Mabel who are back to back*

Dipper: You're still taller?!? Ugh, how did this happen?!?

Mabel: I guess it's another mystery!

Dipper: Just another reason we gotta get that flashlight back! *looks down the desk*

Mabel: *on top of Cheekums* Cheekums, to freedom!!!!!! *pats him* ... To freedom!!!!!! *pats him* ... *hugs him* Aww, you're just a big ol' dummy dumb!!!

You: *laugh*

Dipper: *sigh* How will we get down...?!?

You: *look around* Mm... !!! I got an idea!!! *fun over to the hairbrush and grab a (very massive) strange of hair*

Dipper and Mabel: *share a confused glance*

You: *grab the q-tip and wrap the strand of hair around it, then throw it as if it were a spear, making it land on the far ground* There!

Mabel: Ooh!!!

Dipper: I still don't see how we can get down from here.

You: *take a strand and cut it in three* With our size and weight, it'll be easy to just ride down! *wrap the shorter strand around the long one and start sliding down* WOOOOOHOOOOO!!!

Dipper: !!!

Mabel: *follows your lead* WEEEEE!!!

You and Mabel: *reach the ground laughing*

Mabel: THAT WAS AWESOME!!!

You: COME ON, PINE HAT!!!

Dipper: *with the hair strand already around the long one* Uh, j-just g-g-give me a s- AH-!!! *gets pushed by Cheeckums and slides down* AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-!!!!!

You: ... Dude, we're back on ground.

Dipper: *blushes in embarrassing* ...oh.

Mabel: *snickers*

You: C'mon, we gotta go!!!

~hiding inside a boot in Gideon's living room~

Gideon: *eating ice cream, then licks his two sticky hands* Clean me!!!

Bud: *passes a baby wipe on Gideon's face cleaning him*

Gideon: Father, could you give widdle ol' me a wide to the Mystery Shack?

Bud: Oh I'd love to, sugar pie, but I have a heck of a lot of card to sell, I do~ *tickles Gideon*

Gideon: *laughs uncontrollably* NO, NO, DON'T TICKLE ME!!! NO!!!*throws the ice cream box at the wall* Never, NEVER tickle me!!! What have I told you?!?!? What have I-?!? Look at me, what have I told you?!?!?

Bud: Tickling is no laughing matter...

Gideon: There we go.

Bud: Do you still need a ride?

Gideon: I'll just take the bus!!! *pushes a table with a lamp, then kicks the door open and storms out*

Bud: Precious memories.

Mrs. Gleeful: Just keep vacuuming... just keep vacuuming...

You: Yikes...

Dipper: C'mon!

Once outside we had to find a way to get to the shack. And I definitely couldn't carry both of them on my own. We somehow manage to get the dollar discount sign to fly and made it to the shack before Gideon. Unfortunately he was right on our tail. We were on top of the totem pole when the bus pulled up.

Dipper: We're just in time! But how are we gonna stop'm? *starts getting pecked by a woodpecker* AH- AH!!!

You: *laugh your guts out*

Mabel: Leave that to Mabel!

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *make it to the shack's lower roof*

Mabel: *throws the Gummy Koala's head in Gideon's hair and whispers* I'm sorry, gummy friend!

Dipper: *whispers* It's for the greater good.

Gideon: Oh, one of those inferno Gummy Koalas got into my perfect hair!!! *drops the flashlight* I can't defeat Stan looking like this!!! *goes to check his hair*

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *reach the flashlight*

Mabel: Quick, get in front and I'll regrow you!

Dipper: Ok. Wait, you're gonna grow us back to equal height, right?!?

You: Are we seriously doing this now?!?

Mabel: Dipper, that doesn't matter right now!!!

Dipper: Well if it doesn't matter then why don't you do it?!?

Mabel: Ugh, why are you acting so weird?!? Why can't you just accept that I'm a little bit taller than you?!?

You: Guys-

Dipper: Oh, I'm acting weird?!? You're the one that keeps calling me names and stuff!!!

You: Guys-!!!

Mabel: Oh what, you mean like Little-!!!

Dipper: Don't say it!!!

Gideon: Little Dipper.

Gideon: *captures you and the twins* I dare say you would've defeated me!!! If it wasn't for your sibling bickering!!! *kicks open the door* The shack is mine, Stanford Pines!!! *shrinks Stan*

You, Dipper, Mabel: NO!!!

Gideon: Well well, Stanford, it appears I finally gotten the best of- *lifts up Stan's fez revealing a tiny Soos*

Soos: *gasp*

Gideon: What?!?

Soos: Alright, something's definitely different here.

Gideon picks up Soos and places him in a jar along with the twins and I. He shakes the jar.

Gideon: Tell me where Stan is!!!

Soos: Never!!! You'll never find Stan!!! On the second door to the left down the hall!!! Oh wait, why did I say that?

Gideon: *closes the jar's lid then places it on his pocket* Stanford, I'm coming for ya!!!

You, Dipper, Mabel, and Soos: *try to break out*

Mabel: *sees Gideon's ID then blows raspberries at it*

Soos: Guess I kinda Soosed that one up.

Dipper: It's not your fault. I'm the guy who put together that shrinking device. I guess it's just you kept teasing me, Mabel, like all day! What was that all about?

Mabel: *takes out the points list and gives it to Dipper* I guess it's that you're better at me at like everything and you always rub it in my face. Chess, checkers, ping pong, I guess I finally felt like I was winning at something for once.

Dipper: Oh man, now I feel like a big jerk...

Mabel: Don't you mean a little jerk?

Dipper and Mabel: *laugh*

Dipper: Alright, I walked into that one. *kneels down* Are we cool? *offers a fist bump*

Mabel: *fist bumps Dipper* We're cool.

Soos: *offers a fist bump* Am I cool?

Mabel: *fist bumps Soos* You're cool Soos.

Soos: Yes!!!

Dipper: *looks at you and offers a fist bump*

You: ... *fist bump Dipper and smile* Well, now that that's out of the way, we still need to find a way to save Stan!

Gideon: *gasp* Stanford!!!

Stan: *in all the mirrors* Oh hi Gideon! I've been looking for someone to try out my new mirror maze! Then again, you're an idiot, that's the end of the sentence. *runs off*

Gideon: You come back here!!!

Stan: Try and find me, twerp!!!

We came up with a plan to open the jar. We sat on each other's shoulders and were able to open it!!! We climbed up to Gideon's shoulders and his... well, I would say neck but it's just head fat.

Mabel: Woah, he's hair's so shiny...!!! *tries to touch it*

Dipper: *stops Mabel* Don't look directly at it!!!

Soos: *jumps unto the fatness and starts to make... skin angels...?* His neck is really squishy! Hey look! I'm making fat angels!!!

Gideon: Ew, termites!!! *tries to hit Soos who falls off Gideon*

Soos: Tell my story!!!

We run to the other pocket where the flashlight was. But before he take reach it, Gideon grabbed it to attack the reflection of Stan. The light bumped into many mirrors before it finally hit a moose head. In frustration, Gideon threw the flashlight (that kid has a thing for throwing things in anger) at the mirror, breaking it.

Stan: Hey, watch the merchandise!!!

Gideo: *picks up the flashlight and smirks, then starts breaking all the mirrors*

Stan: *comes out* You little troll!!! These mirrors cost me ten- I-I mean uh, twenty five- five hundred, five hundred dollars each!!! And you're paying for all of them!!!

Gideon: Oh contraire, it'll be you who pays!!! *points the flashlight at Stan*

Mabel: Grunkle Stan is doomed!!!

Dipper: Not completely doomed, to the armpit!!!

You: What?!?

Mabel: Uh uh!!!

He pushes us both under. WHY ME!!!! As we crawl, I hear the conversation of Gideon and Stan.

Stan: Woah, what is that thing?

Gideon: Finally, after all these years, after every humiliation!!! You're business, your family, everything will finally be mine!!! You have no one to protect you now!!! Prepare for the wrath of Gideon Glee- G-Gideon Glee- *falls to the ground and starts to laugh uncontrollably*

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *tickle Gideon*

Stan: Uh, I don't even know how to respond to this.

Gideon: No!!! *laughs* stop it!!! *laughs*

Stan: Look, kid, I think this whole rivalry thing is getting to you. I understand, I mean I'm a formidable foe, what can I say?

Gideon: *keeps laughing*

Stan: Hey now, come on, you'll get me one of these days. Maybe, you know, run your evil plan by some friends next time, huh? Workshopping!!! But first get your issues in order there.

Gideon: *stills laughing*

Stan: ... *kicks Gideon causing him to roll away* Eh. Eh. *pushes Gideon out the door*

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *jump off Gideon*

Gideon: *pats his pockets* My light!!!

Stan: You're the light of my life too, pal. *closes the door, then wipes the sweat away* Oof, freak show.

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *go to the flashlight*

Dipper: After you.

Mabel: It's ok, you can go first if you want.

Dipper: I insist, you should go first.

Mabel: No really, you go.

You: Oh my God. *take the flashlight and grow them to normal size*

Mabel: *takes the flashlight and points at you making you grow to normal size*

Dipper and Mabel: *go back to back*

Mabel: *checks their height* Hey, I have my extra millimeter.

You: Please do not fight.

Dipper: We won't, you earned it.

Mabel: *puts an arm around Dipper* Aw, thanks little bro-

Dipper: Stop it.

You: Well, I guess we should destroy this thing so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands or something.

Dipper: *takes out the crystal* Seems like the smart thing to do.

Mabel: *takes it and throws it to the ground then steps on it* Die!!! Die!!!

Soos: There you dudes are! I've been trying to get your attention!

You: Glue.

Dipper: Lots of glue.

Thanks for reading!!! 'Till next time!!!
