This is my entry for a contest to create a Gravity Falls one-shot with an original villain  of mine in it. (Contest 7, WattyFallers and EZ-Dayz) I even drew the villain just for the fun of it. (I'm not really a good drawer but hey I tried and had some free time.) Hope you like it.

3rd Person (Trying something new)

It was a long and peaceful year in the town of Gravity Falls...as peacefully as it can be with the supernatural creatures living around, but much more peaceful then the apocalypse that happened last summer. A bus rolled into the town and drop two young 13 year old children got off the bus at the tourist trap, The Mystery Shack.

"We're back!" Mabel cheered.

"Soos did a pretty good job around here." Dipper added.

Mabel and Dipper went up to the door and before the kids could knock on the door the door opened, "Kids!" Stan cheered.

"Grunkle Stan!" They cheered as they attacked him with hugs.

"I thought you were going to be here tomorrow!" Dipper gasps out.

"We were but I found a short cut." Stan reply.

"You found the short cut?" Ford cleared his throat behind them.

"Alright! Ford found a short cut!" Stan grumbles.

"Grunkle Ford!" Mabel cheered as she ran, with her brother, to attack Ford with a hug.

After they separated from hugs, Dipper felt Wendy's hat that he got last summer pulled away from his head and another hat was place on his head. Dipper turns around and smiles at Wendy who put on her hat, "Hey dude!"

"Wendy!" Dipper smiled, now fixing his old pine tree hat on his head. Mabel attacked Wendy with a hug, "Wendy!" Then Soos came in, wearing Stan's old fez, "Sup dudes! Welcome! I got your rooms ready. Dipper and Mabel are still up in the attic. I hope you don't mind."

"Are you kidding!? That is where all memories are made!" Mabel smiled. Then Soos came back into the room, carrying the twins bags and a pig came strolling in. "You brought Waddles?" Stan asks as he grumbled. Mabel smiled, "Of course Grunkle Stan! Also, thank you Soos...we can take it from here."

They grab their bags. "Race you Dip!" Mabel shouted as she got a running start. "No fair!" Dipper shouted back as he started to run up the stairs.

Stan and Ford chuckled. "I sure miss those kids." Stan smiled. Ford nods his head, "Agreed." After the kids unpacked their things and got settled in, the group went out to eat with other friends. Everything was going just perfect.....but there was a shadowy figure of just this black fog with glowing blue eyes.

"Enjoy what you have now. The joy, the happiness, the food, the family...everything...enjoy while you have it." Then the black fog disappeared. Ford looked back from the window, swearing that he saw something but nothing was there. Ford just shook his head and went back to the group.

After the dinner the group headed back to their homes into a soundless sleep....

"Grunkle Stan!" Mabel screamed from the attic area, "Grunkle Stan! Come quick!"

Luckily Stan was awake and was making breakfast when he heard his great niece's pleas. "Mabel? Mabel!" Stan called out as he rushed up the stairs with Ford quickly behind him. They came into the attic, "Mabel! What is it?"

Mabel had tears in her eyes, "Its Dipper! He is burning up, gasping, and he won't wake up."

Stan quickly went to his nephew side and felt his forehead, "He is burning up." he mumbles. Then Stan felt his pulse, "And his pulse is fast."

"Stanley we have to take him to the hospital." Ford reply.

"Do you think Bill have something to deal with this?" Mabel just brought up. Ford shook his head, "I doubt it. We killed him...Bill isn't here."

Stan picked up Dipper, "Why think that Bill done this? I think it is just a sickness that the caught."

"Let's talk about this later." Ford reply. Nobody argued. They quickly rush to the hospital for Dipper. After a few hours of waiting, the doctor finally came in. "We got him out of danger...but he isn't out of the woods yet. At any time he may slip back and we might not be so lucky to get him out again." The doctor informed. "Do you know what is causing him to be sick?" Stan questioned. The doctor shrug, "Don't know yet. Still running some tests. You can see him if you like."

The family nod and they went into Dipper's room. Dipper was laying on the bed, still asleep, with oxygen, IV, and other machines attach to him. Dipper was pale and still had gasps for breath and sweat drip from his skin. Mabel, with tears in her eyes, went to Dipper's side and grabs his hand.

"Do you think it was the food?" Stan asked Ford.

Ford shook his head, "Dipper ate there many times and never got sick."

Stan nod, "True. Got any other theories pointdexer?"

Ford looks over at Dipper and sigh, "I'm not sure. To me...it seems a normal illness. The fever, the gasping for breath, and so on. Like some old illness."

"They why can't they treat it?"

"I don't know Stanley. That is my guess but I could be wrong."

Stan sigh, "It's is second day and he is already dying. This wasn't supposed to happen Ford."

"I know...I know. Don't worry Stanley, I'm sure the doctors will get the tests back and find out what it is and fix it. He would be out in no time, back in the Shack."

"I hope your right about that Ford."

Stan then went over to some chairs and grabs one for Mabel and had her sit by Dipper's bed side, then he sat in on against the wall. Ford went into deep thought, thinking what could cause Dipper to just go suddenly ill and why is it so bad? Ford knew he was young but this shouldn't happen to him...not like this. Ford kept thinking of the possibilities and the odds of him living, which he just ending up slipping into.

"Like the scene?" A female voice just questioned. Ford broke from deep thought and looked up. He could see a young female sitting next to a sleeping Stan. She had chin length brown hair, brown eyes, and was wearing a black future like clothing like what he wore in his travels between dimensions.

Ford was started by this and grew greatly alarm, "Who are you!?"

Then Ford looked around and could see everyone else in the room was asleep.

"What did you do?"

She shrugs, "Just put them to sleep so we can talk."

Ford pulled out his gun and pointed at her, "Who are you?!"

She laugh, "Put the gun away. You can't hurt me and I can't hurt you. You are going to kill someone else with that thing."

Ford didn't stand down, "Answer my questions and I won't kill you."

She sighs, "Alright...Name's Julius Hansnow."

Ford was taken aback, "Hansnow?"

Julius smirks, "So you do remember after your old age old man."

Ford lowered his gun just a bit having flashback memories. Hansnow....Aquee Hansnow. She was from a dimension.

Ford looked at Julius, "Aquee."

Julius darkens her eyes, "Of course. I know you are old but it is really rude to not respect your wife."

Ford was taken aback, "Wife?"

Julius shot up and took a few threating steps towards Ford, "How dare you! How dare you not remembering how you are sealed to her by the blood cup that you both drank!"

Ford raise up the gun, "Stay back!"

Julius rolls her eyes irritated. Then she waves her hand through the gun, "See you bone head! Like I said before...I can't hurt you and you can't hurt me....physically." Ford was confused. Julius eyes then glowed blue and Ford was force up the wall by an invisible force. She was defiantly a Domain. The gun clatters to the ground.

"My magic still gets through though." Julius sneer.

Ford tried moving but the force was too strong, "Why are you doing this!?"

"I'm sure you can think of why at least." Julius sneer, "Let me help you a bit. Your last name is Hansnow because you marry Aquee Hansnow. You drank from the blood cup that sealed you together. You had a night."

Then Ford got the picture, his eyes widen, "You're my daughter?"

Julius smirks. Ford was now overthinking things, "H-How are you even here?"

"Well you're fancy portal isn't the only portal in this earth father. I'm using a Moon portal from the Moon clan."

"Moon Clan? How are you all the way over there?"

Julius then darkens, "That is the reason why I'm here. You left us. You just got up that morning and left. After that...the Domain elders found out that you were a human...they couldn't punish you so they punish us...because my mother marry and slept with a human while I was half human and half Domain. They kicked us out with nothing...only me in my mother's womb...that is all."

"I-I'm sorry that happened-"

"You lied to everyone...you tricked everyone...and look at the consequence you gain." Julius sneer pointing at herself, "My mother is dead because of you...because all she had was me and nothing. Nobody would help two traitors of the Domain clan."

Then Ford looks over at Dipper, "You made him sick."

Julius chuckled, "Of course. You care a lot for you nephew and he was the only one to eat the muffins at the dinner party so of course." Julius then walks over to Dipper and ran her fingers through Dipper's hair...littering going through them. "Sickness took over us...that is why Mother is dead."

Ford tightens his fists, "Look I'm sorry about your mother. I'm sorry that I left...but you can't punish my family. Punish me."

"Oh I am Father. What? You think punishing you by killing you? No...that isn't punishing. That is revenge. I want both so I go after your weak points."

"They are your family also Julius!"

Julius shrugs, "True...but not my real family. They are humans from your side of the family. The filthy side."

"Just let Dipper go and take me."

Julius laugh, "Why would I do that?" Julius looked down at Dipper, "It's so fun watching him suffer." Then suddenly Dipper started to squirm and gasp more. The machine started to beep faster. "Stop it!" Ford shouted angrily, "Stop this right now!"

Then Julius looks at me, "And watching you in pain." Julius then chuckled darkly as she just faded. Ford fell to the ground. Then Dipper squirm just for a little then his slowed down and his head tilted to one side and the machine just went into a long beep.

Mabel slowly opened her eyes and then heard the machine. "Dipper! Dipper!" Mabel screamed as she jumped up. Stan also slowly woke up and noticed what was going on. Then nurses and doctors storm into the room. Ford quickly grab his gun and tuck it under his jacket. Stan reaches and pulled Mabel away from Dipper. Mabel screamed for Dipper and tried to get out of Stan's grip to go to him, tears streaming down her face, "No! Dipper! Dipper!"

The doctors quickly unbutton Dipper's shirt and charged up the defibrillator.

"Clear!" The doctor announces. Then they shock Dipper but still nothing.

"Again."

They waited a few seconds for it to charge up again.

"Clear!"

Still nothing.

Ford watch over his nephew, who the doctors are trying to bring back. This was Julius work...this was his fault.

They used the defibrillator three more times on Dipper. Then right when they were going to do it again, there was a small heartbeat. "He's back." Then the doctors started to check on him. Ford went over to Stan and Mabel, "I need to talk to you outside now."

"But..."Mabel started to protest. "Dipper need some space right now...it won't take long I promise. Enough time to give the doctors enough space to help him at the moment." Ford reply gently.

Then Ford, Stan, and Mabel left the room. Ford then explain to the two about Julius and what she done. "She did this? Just to get back at you from abandoning and lying to her and her mother?" Stan growled.

"I had to leave Stanley! I was a human and they were going to kill me if I stayed there long enough to find out....which they found out quickly." Ford explained.

"So my niece is trying to kill the rest of us just to get back at you. Thanks Ford." Stan growled.

"I wouldn't have known! That night....I don't remember that night. I guess this drink they gave me...affected me to where I don't know what happened. I woke up and guess they found out." Ford explained.

Stan rubs the bridge of his nose, "What are we supposed to do?"

"I don't know."

"What do you mean you don't know!?"

"I didn't have time to study Domains!"

"What is a Domain?" Mabel asked.

"Like a witch." Ford explained.

"So there's our answer! Throw water onto her and watch her melt!" Stan offer.

Ford glared at Stan, "First off that isn't going to work...and second I don't want to kill her!"

"She is trying to kill us! She nearly killed Dipper twice!"

"She is my only daughter..."

"That you know of." Stan muttered.

Ford sigh, "Stanley enough. Don't need to scold me at this. I know we are all stressed out but we need to be calm and fix this." Stan took a deep breath, "Well what is your idea?" Ford shrug, "I honestly don't know. I tried talking to her but she just angrier and stopped Dipper's heart."

"So no talking, she won't listen." Mabel muttered, "Then what else? Imprison her?"

"The kid got a point Ford. Your daughter isn't going to listen...I bet she wouldn't want to be imprison the rest of her life...killing her is the only way." Stan pointed out.

Ford thought sadly, "you're right I guess." Then Stan places his hand on his brother's shoulder, "I'm sorry Ford." Ford shook his head, "its fine." Then he looks up at his brother, "You stay here with Dipper. I'm going to head home and see if there is anything I can find to stop her."

Stan nods his head, "Got it. I'll protect them."

"Good...don't let them be alone and don't fall asleep. She can keep you asleep. I fear that even though she is weak right now...she can do much damage." Ford then left. Stan and Mabel went back to the room.

"He's alright...for now." The doctor informs them, "Don't know how this could happen. He slipped so quickly but at the moment...he's fine."

"Thank you doc." Stan nods his head. Then the doctors left. Mabel went back to Dipper's side and grabs his hand, "Oh Dipper...please don't ever do that again. I know it isn't your fault...but please Dipper...Please fight this."

Stan places his hand on Mabel's shoulder, "Dipper is strong. He'll fight this and Ford will find a way will save Dipper and stop Julius."

"I just wish we can talk to her. She's family but she won't listen."

"Yeah...like the cousin we never talk about. The crazy one." Stan reply, "Like my Uncle Jim."

"How come I never heard of him?"

"Exactly."

For Ford he quickly rushes over to the house. "Mr. Pines...I heard about Dipper...What's going on?" Soos asked. "Can't explain right now, Soos. I got to go through things...But Dipper is....hanging in there." Ford explained. Soos nod his head, "Thinking of visiting him once the Shack closed."

"Good idea. But Soos...I really need to go."

"Yes Mr. Pines."

Ford then went to his room and pulled out his books and research and even pulled out a laptop. Ford started to go through anything that could help explain how to stop a Domain or even to save Dipper. Ford was going through everything of her research.

After a few hours Ford couldn't find anything. Ford slam a book, "Gosh dang it!" Ford ran through his hair, "Why didn't I gain more knowledge about them!? Now Dipper is going to die...and everyone else...and it is all because it is all my fault." Then Ford ran his fingers through the pages and then he yelp a bit when he got a paper cut with blood oozing out. Ford suck on his finger. Then a thought came to him, "Julius is half human. She can just die like anyone else! But...she is also half Domain...It may not work."

Then suddenly Ford got an email, "Dimension Seeker." It read and it was a reply from his question. Ford opened the email.

"Dear Ford Pines,

First off I've heard so much about you and I am so glad to help you. Domains are magical beings that are very traditional. Drink from blood cups to marry...take the woman's last name...meetings and so on. To kill them is a different story. Domains are hard to kill though if you don't know the weakness of traditional. You just got to kill them with traditional was...but their traditional ways and not human ways. To kill a Domain you need an old sacrifice knife. When I mean old...I mean old. Like one of the firsts sacrificing knives. Those have the type of build that could kill them. I hope that helps."

Ford sigh, "How am I supposed to find one of those?"

Then another email from the same person.

"Dear Ford Pines...again. :)

So I also got information about this illness that you are talking about. A fever, short of breath, sweating, and so on because a Domain place the under this spell. So you just need medicine for it and I know it. Same thing...traditional. You need dragon fly's wings, beetles, pine needles, oak leaves, and some tree roots. Blend them in a blender until it is completely crush into a liquid. Then up put it in a needle and then inject it into the veins of the person. Sounds gross I know...but it is the only way...if they are still alive. Domain's illness is one of the strongest illnesses and if you don't get them to a hospital...they would be dead within the hour. If you manage to get to a hospital...then my guess is a few days max. Hope that helps and if anyone is infected...I hope they get better."

Ford jumped up with glee, "Oh thank you!" Ford quickly reply to the man and thanked him gratefully. Then Ford went through his things, seeing if there was a sacrifice knife from old times but he didn't have any. Ford grumble, "Great." Then quickly went up to Soos who was starting to close up, "Soos! Do you have a sacrifice knife anywhere here in the Shack? Like a real one that peopled used about a couple 1,000 years ago?"

Soos thought for a moment, "Let me ask Melody." Soos then went off to find Melody. Then within minutes Soos came back, "We do, Melody is getting it now."

Ford was overwhelmed with happiness, "Oh thank you so much Soos." Then Melody came with the knife. It was indeed old for it was made out of bones and rock. Ford took it, "Thank you."

"What do you need it for?" Melody asked, "Not going to stab anyone with it are you?"

Ford chuckled, "No...unless they are needed too."

"Mr. Pines? What is going on?" Soos questioned.

Ford sigh, "There is a someone out there that is out to get me. The only way to stop her is with this knife."

"Like goons? Like what the other Mr. Pines have?"

"No. Someone who wants revenge from another dimension."

"Boy that is crazy."

"Yep. Now I really got to go. Meet you at the hospital?"

Soos and Melody nod. Ford then quickly headed back to the hospital. Ford went into the room and to his surprise....nobody was in the room but Dipper. Ford went over to Dipper to see how he was doing. He was looking worse and even sicklier. He doesn't have much time.

Ford looked around, "Stan? Mabel?"

Then he heard a groan coming from the bathroom. "Stan?" Ford questioned as went to the bathroom door and opened it. He gasps out when he saw Stan laying on the floor with a bloody temple. "Stanley!" Ford kneed by his brother's side and shook him gently, "Stanley! Stanley! Wake up!" Then after giving Stan a few slaps to the face he woke up dazedly. "Ford?"

"Stanley! What happened? Where's Mabel?" Ford questioned.

It took a moment for Stan to process it then he was filled with anger, "This girl...my guess your daughter...just came in. She claims to be a doctor but she didn't look like it. She tried to get to Mabel or Dipper....to the bed at least but I didn't let her by. I tried grabbing her but I just went through her! Then knowing it was so your daughter. She used her magic and knocked me out. Did she hurt the kids?"

"Dipper is okay for right now...Mabel isn't here."

Stan got up to his feet, ready to strangle Julius, "I'm going to strangle her if she touches one finger on my Mabel." Ford place his hand on Stan's shoulder, "Don't worry...I got a way to stop her." Ford then pulled out the knife, "This is a way to kill her."

"Are you alright about that?"

Ford sigh, "She is my daughter yes....but I don't know her. I would love to keep her alive and get to know her but it isn't going to work. She hates me so much. Killing her is the only way to protect the rest of us."

Stan nod, "Alright."

"Stan I need you to do something. I also found a way to save Dipper. It is this medicine that you have to make. I need you to get dragonfly wings, beetles, pine needles, oak leaves, and some tree roots. Put them in a blender and mix them up until they are almost a liquid. I got some needles in the cabinet. Fill one of them and then take it to Dipper. Inject it to his IV. Got it?"

"Are you sure that is going to work?" Stan questioned, "I mean...we are putting stuff that doesn't belong in a human body."

"It is."

Stan sigh, "Alright....but we are not telling Dipper what we gave him."

Ford gave a small smile, "Deal."

"Wait...where are you going then?"

"I'm going to stop Julius."

"What about Dipper?"

"Julius isn't going to bother Dipper anymore. She knows that Dipper only have a few hours max to live. That is why you need to make it quickly. Oh I almost forgot...we don't want an over or under dose. Just filled the container half way...since he is still a child. Bring another one all the way full for save keepings."

Stan nod, "Got it and don't worry I got it."

"Oh and Soos and Melody are coming to visit Dipper."

"They can watch over him. I'll tell them that we both had things to do and I'll tell Soos that he is in charge."

"Got it."

Stan raises his hand, "Ready?" Ford high six his brother's hand, "Go." Then together they quickly head out of the hospital and met Soos and Melody there. Told them that they will be back and to watch over Dipper. They agree and headed up to the room. "Hey Ford." Stan called out, "Where are you going to find them?"

"I know where they are. She would have taken Mabel somewhere where nobody can find them or cries for help."

"That is like 100 places around here!"

"Not all of them have sensors."

Stan was confused about the whole thing but Ford was already gone before he could question it. Stan shrugs and started to find the ingredients.

Ford headed to the bunker. Ford got an email that someone was in there. Ford had installed it to make sure that nobody was down there messing with things or trying to free the Shapeshifter. Ford headed down the bunker, softly and quietly. By this time it was already dusk and within minutes...there would be a full moon and Julius would be completely out which Ford needs to stop her.

Ford tip toe around the place and then he heard voices.

"You are a butt face!" That was Mabel and it sounded like she's been crying, "I'm your second cousin! I'm family! Your family! Why are you doing this?"

"They do say that you are the sweetest in the family." Ford heard Julius speak, "but I don't care." Then Mabel started to scream in pain. Ford wanted to just go out there and stab Julius right now but the moon wasn't out yet. "Hang in there Mabel." He muttered.

"Stop! Stop please!" Mabel screamed.

There was a few more seconds of screams which felt like a century.

"Torture...nice touch don't you think?" Julius asked, "Actually I don't care what you think."

"W-Why....W-Why are you d-doing this?" Mabel whimpers.

"Revenge to my father of course. Having your brother sick and be killed because of that sickness...that takes care of a death of a loved one...like my mother. Father would understand my pain with that. Then having a loved one torture....that what happened to me. For my uncle...I got something else in mind for him but I'll have to do with that later."

"T-They will stop you."

"Oh really? Your brother is on his death bed, you are here, my father is stupid and don't know how to stop me because he left, and your great uncle...he can't do nothing for he has nothing to help anyone. Your brother have some knowledge of stuff like this, you have determination, my father has weapons and knowledge....for uncle...he has nothing."

"T-They will still s-stop you."

"Humm...Good luck with that."

Then Mabel started to scream again. Ford couldn't take this anymore. Ford then got out of his hiding place and walk out, "Julius!"

Julius stopped and turned around. Mabel was chain to the wall and looked terrible with a black eye forming and cuts cover with blood everywhere. She looked weak and pale.

Julius smirk, "looks who's trying."

"Julius this had gone too far. Stop now before it is too late!"

"It's too late for you Father."

"It isn't too late for you."

Julius smirk and her eyes glowed blue and she disappeared. Ford pulled out the knife. "Ooooo, I'm so scared...a knife." Julius mocked.

"Julius this is enough. Stop now...we can talk about this."

"I don't want to talk to you...filthy human you are. You left us...You let us be torched and killed...I'm just returning the favor. You know Father...your great nephew only has a few hours...if he is lucky."

Ford scanned the area for her, "Show yourself!"

"Acting so tough and strong when all of your family is going to die. Funny."

Then Julius just appeared behind Ford. "Grunkle Ford!" Mabel gasped out. Ford turn around sharply but Julius snap her fingers and Ford flew up in the air and crash into some boxes. "Are you asking to be killed?" Julius mocked in an irritated voice.

Ford got up to his feet, "Julius...You are my daughter. Please...listen to me. You don't have to do this. As your father...listen to me once in your life! Look...I'm sorry I left you and your mother but now I can fix that. I won't leave you now...since that we are here now. There is me, cousins, and an uncle. That is your family right now, Julius. You don't have to do this."

Julius rolled her eyes, "You have no idea what I've been through. Born in the middle of nowhere, being lucky if I get a piece of bread for the week, then watching helpless as mother slowly died, and then being abducted then tortured over and over again. There was no family for me...by blood of course...but my heart...no family at all."

"Oh yes...you are traditional. I understand about that...but now it isn't too late."

"Oh...it is too late...too late for your nephew, niece and brother." Julius sneer. Then she raises her hand and Mabel started to scream. Then out of anger Ford charge at Julius and swing the knife. Julius took a step back but did gasp out. Julius looked down at her arm that got cut. The full moon is up.

Ford then threw his fists just Julius dough it and grabbed a hold of it and flipped Ford over. Ford hit the ground but he manage to grab Julius's leg and lift it up and twist it, causing Julius to fall back but Julius never hit the ground. She just vanishes into thin air. Ford got to his feet, holding the knife tightly.

Then Julius just appears in the air behind Ford and then swings her legs and kicked him in the face. Ford stumble back. Then Julius came at him with a fist in the air but Ford dough it easily and grab Julius's arm and then twist it behind her back and stuff her wrist in between the shoulder blades. Julius then just disappeared away and Ford couldn't feel Julius anymore.

"You got to do better than that old man." Julius sneer.

Ford took a deep breath, "End this now Julius. Please."

"Tick tock father...time is running out for the twins. Of course you are so selfish to notice anything of them."

"What are you..." Ford trailed off when he saw Mabel. Mabel wasn't looking too well. She pale and was so weak. Ford knew she had to get her out of here and fast.

"You can't stop me. We both know that. You are just going to watch them die. One from sickness, one from torture, and who knows for your brother...I'm thinking of...destroying all of his money to start out. I know he loves money. Then I got some friends that will work with him...you know...cutting him up and selling his parts on the black market. You know... for some dimensions...human parts are huge and people would do anything to get something."

"You will not touch them!"

"Already have and I'm enjoying your pain and their suffering."

Anger filled in Ford. He tightens the grip on the knife. Then Ford got this old gut feeling that something was behind him. He knew that Julius was there but he didn't want her to know so she wouldn't disappear.

Ford brought the knife slowly to his side, "Julius...enough. Please just stop this now. We don't have to do this?"

"When will you ever learn Father? There is no ending to suffering...and I'm going to make sure it will never end for the rest of your life."

Ford tightens his jaw, "What are you going to do when you killed my family?"

"Oh that's easy! There is other ways to ruin your life. Killing your family in the most painful and slowest way is step one. After that...you will live your life and knowing that your family is dead because of you. They died in a most horrible way because of you. Nothing will be happy for you...within a year...you won't know what happiness is!"

Ford had enough of this, "You were right about me not being your family in the heart...because you are not one of my family." Then Ford just brought the knife backwards hitting something. Ford heard a gasp. Ford then pulled back the knife and could see that the stone blade was cover in blood. Ford turns around and could see Julius was stab in the stomach. Julius looked down then back up at Ford, her glowing blue eyes dimming. Then Julius eyes turned completely brown. Then she fell to the ground.

Ford looked at the knife...It was over.

Ford looks down at Julius lifeless body...his daughter by blood...but not by heart. Ford did try to help her but she brought this all on her own. Ford went over to Mabel and shook her gently, "Mabel? Mabel? Dear?"

Mabel weakly opened her eyes, "F-Ford?"

Ford smiled, "It's alright sweetheart. Everything is alright." Ford hugs Mabel and held her tightly, "Now let's get out of here." Ford used the knife to pry open the cuffs and then he carried the weak Mabel out.

"It's alright Mabel. Everything is alright." Ford muttered the whole way back to the hospital. At the hospital, Stan was there already and was injecting the cure into Dipper's IV. Ford came into the room, "Mabel is being checked on."

"So you did it?" Stan asked.

"Yes...she's gone now." Ford reply.

"So who was this person?" Soos asked.

Ford sigh as he brought the ice bag that was in his hands to his temple, "A pain but we got a while...so alright." Ford and Stan explained to Soos and Melody about Julius. Within a few hours Mabel came into the room, looking much better.

"Are you alright sweetie?" Stan asked.

Mabel nod, "yes...and Dipper?"

"Already fixed it. He just need to rest." Stan reply.

"Have he woken up yet?"

"No."

Mabel nods her head as she went up to Dipper's side and held his hand again. Stan lean more in the seat, "It's really a long night." Ford sat next to him, "You're telling me."

"Do you think the rest of the summer will be better for the kids?"

"I hope so Stanley. I don't want any of them to be killed like this."

"But you think a few monster hunts though?" Mabel questioned, "Dipper likes them."

Ford smiled, "I'm sure there is something. I was actually thinking about visiting the mermaid clan." Mabel's eyes widen, "I'll love that!"

They chuckled. Stan looks over at his brother, "Boy, it looks like a chick is going to pop out of your forehead."

Ford rolled his eyes, "Whatever Stanley."

"No, your goose egg is huge!"

"It will go down. I'm icing it."

"Good knuckled head."

Then Dipper slightly stirs. Mabel tightens her grip around Dipper's hand, "Dipper?"

Then Dipper slowly opened his eyes, "M-Mabel?" He croaks. Mabel smiled with tears in her eyes, "Dipper!" Then she attacked Dipper with a hug, "Oh Dipper! Don't you ever scare me like that! Don't you ever give up again!"

"What are you talking about?" Dipper muttered. Then looking around, "Where am I? What's going on? Blah! Why do I taste like bugs are in my mouth?"

Stan and Ford looked at each other. "Oh nothing to worry Dip Dot! You are okay now! We are all." Mabel smiled as she squeezes Dipper even more. "Mabel...you're crushing me." Dipper gasped out. Mabel backed away sheepishly, "Sorry bro."

Dipper looked around dazedly, "What did happened?"

"We'll explain later Dipper. Right now...we just want you to rest." Ford started. "You got sick kid...just to give you a preview of the explanation."

"Sick?"

"Yeah."

Dipper moans softly, "Yeah...I feel it." Then Dipper looks over at Mabel, "What happened to you?" Mabel brush Dipper's hair back, "It will be explained later, alright bro bro. Trust me you don't want to know at the moment. The point is that I'm okay and the same with you."

Dipper gave a weak smile, "I'm I sick because I party too hard?" Dipper joked. "Oh trust me kid! You don't even know how that is!" Stan chuckled. The family with Soos and Melody laugh and talked for a bit, not knowing what was outside,

"You may have weakened me, Father, and won this battle, but I'll be back and you are going to regret it." Then the black dust disappeared.

There we go! Hope you like it and I wish the others luck for the contest!!
