I woke up on the ground, near the statue. I took out my phone and called Mabel.

       "Hey Mabel? How are you holding up?" I said with sadness in my voice.

       "I don't want to talk right now. I just want to be alone." He seemed to be softly crying.

       "No Mabel. You wanting to be isolated is part of the curse. You need to talk. So I am going to ask you again, how are you doing." I said softly into the phone trying not to cry. I felt pain knowing she was in pain.

       "Okay Dipper, I will try to fight the curse and tell you. I am doing awful! My hair is almost fully gray, I feel an awful pain in my head and sides, and I keep having mood swings!" I could feel the tears pouring down her cheek from how she was talking into the phone. "If you do not find a cure one day before I am said to die, I want you by my side." She cried.

      "Okay, Mabel. I will be by your side if I can't find a cure."

      "Promise?" I felt her spirits lifting.

      "Promise."

       "Thank you Dipper." I almost felt her smile.

        "Bye, Mabel."

        "Bye." She said.
