into the Shadows

As Dipper and Mabel boarded the bus, bidding farewell to their parents, a sense of unease settled over Dipper. The nearly vacant bus added to his growing discomfort. The atmosphere was filled with an eerie stillness, leaving him on edge.

But he shrugged it off, ignoring his gut instincts.

It took 'em a couple of hours, and while Mabel caught some Z's, Dipper was peepin' out the window. Out of nowhere, he spots this dude in a fancy suit. He blinks twice, and just like that, the guy vanishes. Dipper couldn't shake the feeling that somethin' was off.

Dipper and Mabel stepped off the bus, but it didn't take long for them to realize that Soos was nowhere in sight. They couldn't even catch a glimpse of the Mystery Shack!

Mabel: "Dipper, this place doesn't feel like good ol' Oregon. The vibes are giving me major creeps."

Dipper tried to reassure her, saying, "Don't sweat it, Mabel. I'm pretty sure we're still in Oregon. It's just that things might have changed a bit since the last summer."

Dipper and Mabel searched high and low, hoping to catch a glimpse of the Mystery Shack. But all Dipper could come across were flyers about missing folks.

Dipper's eyes widened as he finally spotted a sign that read "Welcome to Rosswood." His hands started trembling, and he muttered, "No, it can't be." Mabel, seeing his reaction, grew confused and asked, "What's wrong, Dip?"

Dipper: "Mabel, we messed up and got off at the wrong stop!" Dipper exclaimed, his voice filled with panic.

Mabel yelled out "what!.... Then where are we?" Dipper, still trembling with panic, replied, "Mabel, I think we're in a place called Rosswood. I can't believe this!"

Mabel: "Why are you scared is this a bad place? Are we going to get hurt?" Dipper, trying to calm Mabel's worries, responded, "Not gonna lie, Mabel, this place has a dark history. Disappearances, murders, and other intense stuff. We need to be careful and stay on guard."

Mabel was speechless, Dipper, gripping his flashlight tightly, replied, "Yeah, Mabel, I've heard some seriously scary stories about Rosswood. Some of them even involve arson. We need to stay cautious and stick together."

They find a piece of paper saying "welcome to my game" Dipper and Mabel, their hearts pounding, turned around to find that the abandoned houses, the messed up playground, and the scratch boards had vanished. Confused, Dipper exclaimed, "Whoa, Mabel! Everything just disappeared! This is getting creepier by the minute."

Mabel said "Dipper if this is our last time together I just want to say... I love you and I hope we will not get turned into human bologna"

Dipper, touched by Mabel's words, replied with a mix of seriousness and a hint of humor, "Mabel, you know I love you too, and don't worry, we'll make it out of here in one piece. No human bologna for us, I promise!"
