The Amazing World of Dipper Pines Chapter 3

Chapter Four: Norman the Zombie

The new couple was hanging out at the Mystery Shack, because they didn’t have anywhere else to hang out.

“Dipper, do you ever have the feeling that a teenage girl behind a computer is writing your life?” Cryss asked

“No, for me, it feels more like a group of television writers, at some sort of children’s channel studio…” replied Dipper

“Guys! Marshall is coming over!” said Mabel

“Okay, but why do I care?” asked Dipper

<span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Because Marshall is my boyfriend!” replied Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“That’s was a rhetorical question, Mabel” Dipper snarked

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Then, Marshall walked in. He was a skinny, tall, and pale boy. He had black hair, wore a red and black plaid button up shirt, blue jeans, and red sneakers. It was clear that he was related to Robbie.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Mabel, do you like that boy because he looks like a vampire?” asked Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Maybe…” said Mabel, her hands behind her back, while looking away from Dipper.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“’Sup weenies?” asked Marshall

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Mabel, your boyfriend is rude” said Cryss

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“He’s not rude once you get to know him” said Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Really? How long have you known him?” asked Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Five days” Mabel replied

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“What have you two been doing that you’ve gotten to know each other in five days?” asked Cryss

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“You’ve only been Dipper’s girlfriend for two days!” Mabel said

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Yes, but it feels like I’ve known him a long time” said Cryss

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Well, Mabel, there’s some bad news” said Marshall, his grin turning to a frown.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%; tab-stops: 171.1pt;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“What?” asked Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“My dad got a new job and I have to move. Honestly, I don’t want to move, because of you, but I have no choice” Marshall regretfully stated

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Its okay” said Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Well…I guess I should go now…” said Marshall, as he left.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Then another boy came up to Mabel. He looked just like Norman. (No, not ParaNorman)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Grrarr, hi I’m Norman” said Norman

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Dipper immediately noticed Norman, and pulled Mabel aside.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Mabel! That’s the gnomes!” whispered Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Yeah right, they know that I know about that disguise!” said Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Fine, but I’m keeping watch over ‘Norman’” said Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“It’ll be fine” said Mabel “The gnomes aren’t that stupid”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Still not trusting ‘him’” said Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;">''<span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">~Gravity Falls~ ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Cryss and Dipper were sitting in the tree that they liked to hang out in. They were talking about what they had in common.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Then, they saw Mabel and Norman passing by, below.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Mabel…Rerr…This has been a lot of fun…Errgghhh…Want to be my girlfriend?” asked Norman

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“I’d love to!” said Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Oh god…” mouthed Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Cryss had a strange look on her face…A mixture of shock and fear.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Cryssi…You okay?” asked Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“I think Norman is a zombie…” replied Cryss

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“A zombie? No, he’s a bunch of gnomes…I would know” said Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“No…He’s a zombie…He has to be…The growling, the limping, the fact he leaves a trail of blood…He’s a zombie…” claimed Cryss

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“But how would you know if…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“I’ve seen zombie movies Dipper…I would know a zombie if I saw one, and I see one.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Are you 100% sure?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Yep”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“We should do something…Now…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Dipper and Cryss climbed out of their tree, and hurried to Mabel.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Mabel! Mabel!” yelled Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Yes Dipper?” asked Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Your boyfriend’s a zombie” said Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Ha…Yes! Let’s mess with each other!” said Mabel “Dipper, your girlfriend’s a long lost princess!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“No Mabel! Your boyfriend is a ZOMBIE” Cryss added

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Oh! Now Cryss is in on it! Guys! What a great joke, now allow me to get ready for my date with Norman…” Mabel laughed

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“God Mabel, why are you so oblivious. Norman is a zombie! Haven’t you seen the trail of blood he leaves? Doesn’t that concern you?” asked Cryss, practically shaking Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Well…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“GOOD GOD!” Cryss shrieked in frustration

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Well, I have to go now” Mabel left the Mystery Shack, and went to the woods for her date.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Norman? Where are you?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Norman trudged out of the woods.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Oh, there you are…Norman? Why are you grunting? Norman? You’re scaring me!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Then, Norman got struck on the side of his head by a shovel.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Mabel looked to see who her savior was. It was Cryss.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Cryss? What are you doing here?” asked Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Norman. Is. A. Zombie.” Cryss was breathing heavily

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“What? How?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Gideon sent him!” gasped Cryss

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Le gaspu!” Mabel exclaimed

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Oh God Mabel, you did not just say that…” said Cryss

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“But it’s shocking” replied Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“…And true” Gideon walked out of the shadows

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“GASP” exclaimed Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“I planned all of this, even the part making Marshall go away!” Gideon cackled

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“You poopy head!” exclaimed Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Now Mabel, be my queen!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Never! We live in a democracy!” said Mabel

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Get away from my future sister in law you moron!” yelled Cryss “I’ll reveal the thing if you don’t go away!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“That thing won’t work anymore!” replied Gideon

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“I didn’t mean that thing, I meant the other thing…” said Cryss

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Not the other thing….” Gideon cowered in fear

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Wow, how much do you have on me?!” exclaimed Gideon

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“A lot.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Okay fine…But this still isn’t the last you’ve heard of me! I still have tricks up my sleeve!” Gideon went back into the shadows

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">~

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Well that was weird, said Cryss, dragging the shovel behind her.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Mabel! I’m back!” exclaimed Marshall running to Mabel.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Mabel ran to Marshall and jumped in his arms, knocking them both over.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Hey Dipper let’s do what they just did!” exclaimed Cryss

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">“Yeah, okay!” replied Dipper

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">Cryss dropped the shovel, and ran into Dipper’s arms.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 90%;"><span style="color: rgb(163, 0, 228); mso-themecolor: accent2;">
