Fictober19 / Writetober: Day 2

Fandom: Gravity Falls || CW: - || Nightmare. “Just follow me, I know the area.”

______

Dipper had been looking for a way out of Stan’s mind, not to run further into it. Except he hadn’t been paying attention to any signs and was now stuck in a hallway of nightmares with doors that would haphazardly open at random.

Thinking back, he remembered seeing a door labeled nightmares that had been chained shut which made a lot more sense when said nightmares would freely exit from the memories and into the hallway.

Dipper tried to catch his breath against the warped paneling. Maybe he could just run all the way out of here? Could that work?? He ran his way in here.So it should work. He probably should have ran the other way, or looked where he was going, but no! No, instead he was running past stereotypical mobsters and living machines that tried to chase him down.

“How are y-”

Dipper reflexively screamed, taken off guard.

“Jeez! Never mind I asked, kid.”

After catching his breath, a second time, he actually looked over to see- Grunkle Stan with- “You-You had a mullet?”

“Yeah, and you had a panic attack.” He said. It was Stan, but he was much younger with brown hair that just barely reached his shoulders. It’s not like he hadn’t seen Stan younger by this point, but he hadn’t expected to see Stan outside of any of his memories. “Look, what are you doing here?”

“I got- I got lost and I got stuck. I was trying to get out of here.”

“Yeah, well, you’re damn near in the middle. Come on.” He said, gesturing down the hall with his thumb. “Just follow me, I know the area.”

Dipper reluctantly started walking, smelling something distinctly burnt now as he passed by a cracked door shining a dull blue light into the hallway. He peered at it cautiously, worried something would jump out. “What about all the monsters and everything that keep jumping out of the memories?”

Stan shrugged. “Eh, nightmares get free reign here for the most part. Just avoid them.”

“How are you not worried about them?!”

“Well for one, none of the others got nothing on me, and second this is the mindscape, kid. You can imagine anything you want to get away from them.”

Dipper paused, thinking. “Anything?”

“Yeah, it’s not like this is reality.” Stan waved a hand, making a wrench appear in his hand before chucking it over his shoulder where it thunked onto the ground. “See? Easy.”

“Huh...”

Before he could think much about that though, Stan stopped to open the door in front of them at the end of the hallway.

“Alright, out you go.” Stan told him.

“Uh, thanks? I guess.” Dipper said, awkwardly walking ahead.

Stan hesitated, with the door open considering Dipper. As he opened his mouth though a loud boom went off soon followed by Mabel’s and Soos’ screams.

“Oh no!” Dipper turned towards the noise then back to Stan again. “I gotta go help my sister and Soos.” He said already walking backwards, barely

“Go ahead, I know the feeling.” Stan said waving him ahead which was all the goodbye Dipper needed to completely turn around and start running.
