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: Meh.

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 (y/n), can you get me that brain in a jar? The lady one?

You: I'm tireeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed.

Soos: *chuckles* Can't argue with that. What about you, Mabel?

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: *snort 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.

I decided to go check on Dipper. I flew up and quietly entered the room without him knowing. He was pacing around angrily while talking to himself.

Dipper: Ugh, stupid Mabel! I'm not short! *tries to reach his journal which is high on a shelf, but fails*

You: *land on the journal* Need help?

Dipper: Oh, hey, you came to tease me too?

You: If you don't need my help then-

Dipper: No!!! I-! *sigh* Please give me my journal.

You: *grab the journal with your talons and give it to Dipper before turning human*

Dipper: *searches through his journal* There's gotta be a way to get taller!

You: *sit on his bed* What's your deal with being taller? I mean, I'm shorter than you and I like it.

Dipper: Yeah, but you have the advantage of flying.

You: Fair. But you know you're a boy, right? When you and Mabel finish growing you're gonna end up taller than her.

Dipper: But I want to be taller now. *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: You're gonna go check it out, aren't you?

Dipper: *nods determined*

You: *sigh* Well, we better hurry then.

Dipper: Wait a minute, we?

You: Yes we. I'm not letting you go alone.

Dipper: ... fine.

You: Then let's go!!!

And so Pine 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: I did once encountered a very tiny bear. Aw, he was so adorable!

Just then Dipper tripped on a twig and tried to grab on to the nearest object. Which was unfortunately me. We both ended up rolling down a hill. I tried to lift myself up, my eyes still closed, but something pressured me down. I opened my eyes to see a slightly startled Dipper starring down at me, his cheeks bright pink.

Dipper: U-uh, s-sorry, I-I- I'm-

You: Get off.

Dipper: R-right!!! Yes, uh... *gets off you and stands up*

You: *stand up and brush yourself off, then your eyes widen in shock*

Dipper: What?

You: *point at a miniature deer on the ground*

Dipper: *slightly gasps at the sight*

Deer: *runs over to his miniature deer family*

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!!! PERSPECTIVES!!!

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, wicked 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: Pine...?

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 on one condition.

Dipper: Uh-oh.

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

Dipper: Alright, deal.

We went back to the shack. Pine 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, what are you-? *notice he's much taller* oh my fireball!!!

Dipper: Oh, hey (y/n)!

You: Did you use the flashlight again?!? Pine, 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 take that crystal. I turned into my phoenix form and flew outside to see them fighting over the flashlight while using the flashlight. I had enough. I went in a snatched, holding the flashlight in my talons up in the air out of their reach.

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

Mabel: Glitter attack!!! *throws pink glitter at you*

You: *cough making you turn human and fall on your feet a bit wobbly* Hey!!!

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 and lifts it up so you all could see his face*

You: *try to burn the jar* DANG IT!!! The jar's too thick and my fire's too small!!!

Mabel: You've casted bigger fires!!!

You: If I do I might hurt you guys!!!

Gideon: *giggles evilly*

~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: *throw a fireball at his cheek burning him a bit*

Gideon: AHH!!! *turns around holding his slightly burned cheek 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: Eesh...!

Gideon: *takes a phone and calls someone*

???: Eh.

Gideon: Stanford Pines, listen to me very closely. I have your nice, your nephew, and his little girlfriend.

You: Oh c'mon!!!

Dipper: Why does everyone think we're dating?!?

You: I don't know!!!

Mabel: *laughs*

Gideon: 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*

Dipper: Ah!!!

You: *grab Dipper's hand and pull him close as you make a fire force field making the pieces of the phone burn into ashes*

Dipper: *coughs before letting out a sigh of relief*

You: *make the force field disappear, then see yourself holding Dipper's hand*

Dipper: *sees it too and blushes a bit*

You: *emotionless* Now I see it. *pull your hand away*

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. *turn phoenix and fly over to Dipper* Allow me, sir. *grab on tight to Dipper's vest with your talons and raise up*

Dipper: N-n-no, wait-!!!!!!!!!!

You: Going down!!! *fly down at fast speeds* WOOOO!!!

Dipper: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-!!!!!

You: *now on Dipper's head as he stands on the ground* ...dude, we're back on ground.

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

You: *fly up* You're turn, M.

Mabel: YAY!!! I've always wanted to fly!!!

You: *hold on tightly to Mabel's sweater with your talons and start to fly down in fast speeds*

Mabel: WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

You: *softly drops Mabel on the ground and turn human*

Mabel: THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN!!!

Dipper: Yeah, fun.

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. Yes, I could fly there, but I couldn't leave the twins. 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?!?

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

You: *notice Gideon walking over* Guys-!!!

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

Dipper: Don't say it!!!

Gideon: Little Dipper.

You: *manage to turn phoenix and fly away before he can capture you*

Gideon: *captures the twins*  I dare say you would've defeated me!!! If it wasn't for your sibling bickering!!! *notices your absence* Wait a second, where's your little girlfriend?!?

You: *hiding, groan in annoyance*

Dipper: For the last time, she's not my girlfriend!!!

Gideon: Whatever, I'll find her later. *kicks the door open* The shack is mine, Stanford Pines!!!!! *shrinks Stan leaving his hat*

You: !!!

Dipper and Mabel: NOOO!!!

Gideon: Well well, Stanford, it appears I finally gotten the best of you-! *lifts the fez hat revealing Soos*

Soos: Ah!!!

Gideon: What?!?!?

Soos: Alright, something's definitely different here.

Gideon: *takes Soos and puts him in a jar along with the twins, then leaves*

I had to do something, but what?!? My powers were useless with my size!!! I decided to try and find Stan to warn him. Unfortunately it was of no use, he didn't notice me AT ALL!!!

Gideon was now pointing the flashlight at Stan and I was completely powerless to stop it! I tried to distract Gideon by trying to act like an annoying bug, but he just ignored me.

Then, out of the blue, he began laughing and laughing. The more time passed, the more he laughed. What the...? Stan ended up rolling him out of the shack, I saw the twins jump out and flew to them landing on Pine's hat.

You: Guys, you did it!

Mabel: (y/n), where have you been?!?

You: Uh, everywhere? *laugh and land on the ground turning human* Now c'mon, I want to be my normal size!

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *walk over to the flashlight*

Dipper: After you.

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

Dipper: No, I insist, you go.

Mabel: No no, you go.

You: *use the flashlight to grow them both to their normal size* You took to long, now grow me.

Dipper: *takes the flashlight and grows you both to normal size*

You: *take a deep refreshing breath* Woo, feels good to be back!

Mabel: *checks their sizes* Hey, you let me keep my extra millimeter!

Dipper: You earned it.

Mabel: Aw, thanks, little brother-!

Dipper: Stop it.

You: I'm guessing you two made up?

Mabel: Yep!!!

You: Good, cuz it was getting super annoying.

Dipper and Mabel: *laugh*

Mabel: Well I guess we should destroy this thing, you know, so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands and stuff.

Dipper: Seems like the smart thing to do. *takes the crystal out and offers it to you* Wanna do the honors?

You: *take the crystal* With pleasure! *burn the crystal into ashes*

Mabel: DIE DIE!!!

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

You: ... *hide the ashes behind you* mystery hunt to mysterious crystal cave again?

Dipper: Guess so.

You and Dipper: *laugh*

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