lost touch

As Dipper and Mabel venture deeper into the woods, the atmosphere becomes incredibly eerie. The silence is broken only by the sound of crickets chirping and the occasional caw of crows. The running water adds a haunting touch to the scene. It's as if nature itself is whispering secrets to them.

It's getting late, and with only a few snacks in their bags, they'll need to conserve their energy for the challenges ahead. The darkness of the woods and the dwindling supplies add to the sense of urgency and vulnerability.

Dipper hears a crack behind him and turns around, only to realize it was just a branch he stepped on. At that moment, he feels a sense of relief and silently thanks the heavens that they'll survive this eerie nightmare.

As Dipper and Mabel discover another page, they open it to find the cryptic message, "he could see, but he has no eyes." Dipper can't help but wonder who this mysterious "he" could be.

Dipper's mind starts racing, questioning if this "he" could possibly be referring to Bill Cipher. He can't believe they actually defeated him last summer. The mystery of who this "he" is becomes even more intriguing. But before he can delve deeper into his thoughts, Mabel interrupts him, tugging at his shirt.

"Dipper: Mabel, I don't really have time for your non..." They both notice a tall man in a suit, the same kind they saw on the bus, staring them down. Mabel points at him, indicating that she sees him too.

"Mabel: At the count of three, we're running! One... two..." Both Dipper and Mabel spring into action, swiftly escaping from the clutches of that hideous guy.

Dipper, startled by the encounter, can't help but exclaim, "What in the universe was that?!" Meanwhile, Mabel, feeling overwhelmed, starts to tear up and responds, "I don't... know."

Dipper quickly hushes Mabel as they both start hearing radio or TV static. The eerie sound fills the air, adding another layer of mystery to their already intense situation.

Dipper looks up and sees this strange, faceless man in a suit, desperately searching for them. His hands start trembling, and he can feel his whole body shaking. The only sounds they hear are the eerie static, the chirping of crickets, and the running water.

Dipper rummages through his bag, desperately searching for any clues or information about the faceless man. However, all he finds are snacks, water, and flyers of missing people they've collected. He tries to match the man's appearance with the pictures on the flyers, but unfortunately, there's no connection.

So, Mabel and Dipper come out of their hiding spot, and as they venture deeper into the woods, they stumble upon a guy. They try to approach him, but he completely ignores them, as if they're some kind of ghosts.

Dipper starts to wonder if they might have died during the encounter. But wait, if they were dead, how could Dipper fully rummage through his bag and find the page? It doesn't quite add up. As they continue through the woods, they stumble upon another page, this time covered in multiple repetitions of the word "no" on both sides.

Dipper and Mabel hear the eerie sound of radio or TV static again. They quickly climb up a tree to get a better vantage point. From up there, they notice that the guy is still relentlessly searching for them, not giving up. It's like he's determined to find them no matter what.

Mabel accidentally drops one of her favorite bows on the ground, and that's when they finally hear the man speak for the first time. But wait, his voice sounds like TV or radio static again?

After a while, the man disappears again. They climb down from the tree, and Mabel, feeling frustrated, says, "Is this some kind of twisted joke you're playing on me?" Dipper, a bit taken aback, responds, "Mabel, you know I wouldn't play a prank like this on you. I'm not good at pranks anyway." Mabel, feeling weary of the situation, suggests, "Let's just find a way to get out of here. I'm getting tired of all this."

After what feels like a whole 5 hours, they find another page! Dipper turns to Mabel with a smile, but as they turn back, they spot a cabin. The eerie sound of static fills the air once again. They quickly rush into the cabin, seeking safety. Inside, they see a guy with a beige hoodie sitting on the couch. He greets them with a simple "Hello?"
