Chapter 5 Troublesome Gnomes

A/N: It's day 100 in my brainstorming of how to write this story. I bashed my head at my table again because of brain cramp... just kidding! Anyways, maybe I will try my best to at least make this story go on until chapter 20-30 before I drop... maybe.

NOW READ THE CHAPTER!!! 😤😤🔥🔥

>++++++++++++++++++++++++++<

Wendy got back to reading her magazine while I walked over to Dipper. I was by his side but he didn't notice me beside him and was still muttering.

"I am pretty sure that he was a zombie but I don't have enough evidence..."

"Hey Dipper, watcha doin' with this book?"

I snatched the book from him and looked at it carefully. Dipper was alarmed by my presence and hurriedly snatched the book back and hid it in his vest/coat (A/N: I don't know what to call it so don't sweat the small stuff ) .

"Woah Dipper. You looked frightened there. Whatcha hiding"

"N-Nothing..."

"Anyway, where's Mabel? Is she with her boyfriend?"

As soon as he heard that he sighed and looked at the camera he was holding.

"Alice, there are weird things in this town right? So Mabel's boyfriend might definitely be a zombie, right?"

"Woah, dude. I admit that there are weird things here in town, like that gnome look-alike raccoon scrounging our trash..." 'I just made that up' I said inwardly.

"What?!"

"As I was saying, you can't judge anyone without evidence or else they'll call you crazy."

"You're right. Soos also told me that. I'll continue collecting evidence! See you!"

Dipper ran outside to continue tailing Mabel and the gnomes before I could say anything back. I just shook my head and looked at the counter again only to see Stanley counting the money he conned out of people. Noticing me looking at him weirdly, he opened his mouth to say something.

"Whatcha lookin' at? They gave it to me willingly. If you don't have anything to do, go clean the place a bit."

"How do you even sell those stupid stuff anyways? Fine, I'll clean."

Dipper PoV:

As I was tailing behind Mabel and Norman, I couldn't help but sigh in relief that I immediately took back the book from Alice. I also can't help but think about what Alice said.

'She saw gnomes. Is she like Soos that saw a werewolf like person but in her case it was a raccoon? That's too farfetched. I'll ask her later.'

Timeskip

Alice PoV:

I did some cleaning and manning of the counter since Dipper left. I always worked here part-time in Stan's shop since a year ago even though he's stingy with my pay.

Apparently I worked for Stan to buy some kind of instrument to use. It seems that the me in this world also likes music. I think that I scrounged up enough to buy a piano and I can just ask mom if it's not enough.

This is an entirely new world so the popular songs and music pieces back in my world don't exist here. I can hide my identity and just sing for fun.

Maybe I'll be like Marshmallow and hide my identity while singing. It will be pretty easy to do it because there's ITube and my only problem is copy writing my songs. It's a hella long process.

As I was contemplating on my musical career, I saw a glimpse of Dipper in the corner of my eye. He was somewhat gloomy going to the room where the TV was.

Seeing him like that I remembered that scene in the first episode where they argued resulting in him checking the camera footage he took.

After a few minutes, he came running out of the shack while yelling Stan's name. I followed him outside and saw him trying to call Stan.

"Hey, Dipper! What happened?"

"IhaveevidencethatNormanisazombie! Mabel's in danger!"

After he said that, he looked around and saw Wendy getting off the golf cart. He ran up to her and asked if he can borrow the golf cart.

"Wendy! Wendy, I need to borrow the golf cart to save my sister from a zombie!!"

Wendy just took out the golf cart's key and gave it to Dipper before saying this.

"Try not to hit any pedestrians."

"Wendy, can you take care of the counter? I'll go with him."

"Got it"

We rode the golf cart before stopping because of Soos.

"Hey, it's me Soos. This is for the zombie. And this is in case you see a piñata."

Saying that, he handed Dipper a shovel. After that he also handed me a baseball bat. We quickly set off and made way to the forest.

After a few minutes we arrived where Mabel was being held. The moment we arrived, Dipper got out of the golf cart while I just stayed, and he was immediately dumbfounded bu what he saw. Well, I , too was weirded out so it wasn't strange.

A few minutes later he got back with Mabel and I took the driver seat while Dipper and Mabel were beside me. I skedaddled out of the place as I knew that the gnomes will pull some union shit. And as I was thinking, a giant gnome monster came out and started chasing us.

"Give us back our queen!"

Following Jeff's (Norman) yell, the giant smashed it's fist in the direction of the golf cart. I immediately swerved out of the way barely dodging the giant fist as it collided with the ground.

"That was close! Fortunately we escaped!"

"Don't relax, Dipper! You'll jinx us!"

Looking behind me, I noticed the giant still tailing behind us. It swung it's hand as dozens of gnomes were launched like missiles.

"Shit!"

The gnomes clung to the roof while four of them got inside. One landed on Mabel's lap that she slapped away immediately and one got into Dipper's face which he frantically tried to remove. Mabel punched it away.

As for me, one bit my shoulder while the other pulled me out of the golf cart. I didn't have seatbelt on cause there are three of us.

""Alice!""
