--Ford's POV--

We silently crept down the halls, listening for Casket. McGucket left a note saying he fled the house, so this was a huge waste of time. Now Suess is dead, according to Dipper, and Spooker's back. He's covered in burns, though, but he seems to not have any hard feelings toward Dipper. The cat on the other hand... That thing is horrifying. The main hall was just a room away when we heard voices.

"SHUP UP!" Ghost shouted, his voice echoing through the room, "I KNOW YOU DID SOMETHING TO HIM."

"I promise you I didn't! AND IF I KNEW WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM DID'JA THINK I'D TELL YOU?!"

"Go die."

"SURE! You first!"

They paused for a second, Dipper and Spooker both looked horrified. "The second guy is Casket!"He whispered to me, frightened.

"I thought they were the same person?" I mumbled back, keeping my eye on the door.

"They were separated." Spooker said, "Want me to take you outside?"

"No, I want to see who they're shouting about," Stanley said, inching closer to the door.

The pause lasted awhile, soft sobs echoed through the door occasionally. "Don't tell me your crying." Jimmy hissed.

"Okay, I won't tell you." Ghost said back, obviously annoyed.

"Ghosty, I know you l-" Casket tried saying, laughing. Ghost groaned a bit, "I know you love him buuuuuuuut I didn't kill him! Heck, you were there!" I looked over and saw everyone just gaping at the door. Including Spooker. Did they bring more people into Gravity Falls?

"I was unconscious." Ghost half-shouted.

"Looky here, Ghosty I didn't STABSTABSTAB him I'd be bragging if I did! I TRIED to do it and he just went and POOFED! HE VANISHED! I HAD NO PART IN THAT I JUST WANTED TO SEE SOME BLOOD!" Casket shouted and Ghost rose his voice to join him in the yelling.

"WHY'D YOU EVEN TRY TO ST-"

"STABSTABSTAB!" Jimmy cackled

"SHUT UP!!" The was a sound of ripping cloth, presumably a knife on some pillows, and some heavy breathing. "You're the worst." Ghost mumbled

"You didn't even remember I existed before today!"

"YEAH, WELL YOUR STILL THE WORST!"

They stopped talking again for awhile, and when they started back up again, Ghost seemed calmer.

"So what did you actually do with Toast?" He asked the killer.

"I'M NOT LYING, HE JUST UP AND DISSAPEARED!"

"... Do you think it was Spooker?"

"No, there was an obvious lack of idiocy."

"HEY!" Spooker yelled from next to me. We all froze and looked at him and he covered his mouth, aware of his mistake. Casket and Johnny both fell quiet. One of them walked over and Ghost opened the door. One of his eyes were glowing red, the other was his usual caramel/amber.

He looked at us, "How long have you guys been listening?"

"Awhile..." Dipper admitted, stepping back, not mentioning the fact that we heard he likes Toast unprofessionally.

He looked at Spooker, "did you take Toast?"

"No." He said, "I've been with them the whole time."

"SEE? WHAT DID I TELL YOU?!" Casket shouted... Through Johnny's mouth. 

"IT WAS WORTH CHECKING," Johnny yelled back, angrily. He turned to us, "sorry... Something happened and-"

"WE'RE SHAAAAAAARING AGAIN!" Casket yelled again, chuckling. 

"I hate this. So flipping much." Johnny said rolling his eyes, "you guys can't even begin to understand how much I hate this." 

"May we go?" Spooker asked, kindly.

"Sure. I'm not stopping you. But seriously, though does anyone have a straight jacket I can borrow?" We all shook our heads. "Darnit..."

We began to walk away, "wait, can I come with you guys? I really need to find Toast. Maybe he can calm down Mr. Knife lover." Jimmy let out a hiss, "oh, be quiet you baby." Ghost snapped back.

"Sure!" Spooker said, smiling.

"ONLY if Casket promises not to touch us. With his knife or otherwise." I said, cutting in.

"FIIIIIINE." Casket moaned, "but if I get bored may I at least poke you?"

"After what you did to Suess, your lucky I didn't snap your neck. Don't push your luck." I growled.

"Yeesh. Harsh much?" Jimmy said, making a pouty face. We all stepped outside, and Casket/Ghost watched the bubbles of pure chaos float around. Now that we were in the light, I could see some differences. His hair was darker, but not black, and his jacket was more of a blue/gray. They were sharing, in a strange way. "Hey, Ghost?"

"Yea?" He said, not looking away from the view.

"How long has Jimmy... You know... Lived in you?"

"Apparently we're both living in someone else and he was before me, but neither of us knows how it happened."

"Anymore." Jimmy hissed, "Ghostie erased our mind of... something really important that happened in between the time we were zero and the day we met Toaster oven." He looked at me, disappointed. "I was hoping you'd have the memory on you that way I could STABSTABSTAB and get it back and then know again!"

"Do you think about anything other than stabbing?" Ghost scolded himself.

"Betcha I can find Toast first!" Casket suddenly shouted.

"YOU SAW HIM?!" Johnny spun back to look off the ledge

"No." Casket laughed, "but that was pretty funny." Ghost started trying to punch himself, but he kept dodging.

"I'm sorry I asked..." I said, walking away. Spooker was just watching, his face unreadable, "you okay, Spooker?"

"I... I'm not used to seeing my boss like this." Spooker said, concerned, "I mean, I don't think he's ever liked me, but... It feels wrong." I nodded.

"Well, we need to find out a way to kill Bill. Everyone, into the car." I said as Dipper tried the doors.

"Toast had the keys." Ghost said, frowning as he walked over. "I think he locked the car."

Stanley smiled, "who needs keys when you're the ultimate con man?" He fiddled with the lock and opened the door, Ghost marveling the whole time. "so who's driving?"

--Toast's POV--

Johnny arrived and we both sat down at a small table on a balcony somewhere in this maze of a house. He asked me what happened and I pretty much explained my life story, not knowing where to begin. Afterward, we corrected me on all that did happen. I didn't kill Mary, she just had to go to the hospital and was one of the first people to survive a British Disco. Afterward, we moved in together and started a life in an extravagant mansion. I was never arrested in my life, I've never done macaroni, Gavin's a grad student and... I don't know about Casket, I didn't bring him up just in case, but it's still really hard for me to believe this is reality, if that was a dream, it felt so real. Spooker and Colon still work for us, but Spooker's not dead and their both honorary members. By the time we were done talking, it was dawn.

"Thanks for coming over sir. What time should I arrive for work?" I asked, smiling as he yawned. Everything felt so natural, but not at the same time.

"In a couple hours. Colon and Spooker are taking the first case we get." He sneezed, "see you later Toast."

"Goodbye, sir," I said, waving. I looked back to the sunrise, too confused to go back to sleep. I watched Johnny pull away at just sat there for a few minutes. I was about to get up when my phone started ringing.

"Hello, this is Johnny Toast, who is it?" I asked, ignoring all the ruckus and feedback my phone was spouting at me.

"JOHNNY! IT'S ME, GHOST!"

"AND CASKET AHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!"

"SHUT UP! Toast where are you?! I'm really worried! According to our little friend here. You just disappeared! I'm with Spooker and the Pines!" I just stared at the phone.

"I don't know what to believe anymore..." I said shaking, "you were here just a minute ago and you told me that Gravity Falls was just a dream and stuff!" I paused, "wait, how do you know about Casket? I am so confused!"

"WHAT?! LOOK I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE YOU ARE! GRAVITY FALLS IS VERY REAL! WE'RE RUNNING OVER DEMONS RIGHT NOW! WHERE ARE YOU?!"

"I DON'T KNOW?! YOU SAID THIS PLACE WAS MY HOUSE!" I looked around, freaking out.

"WHAT?! I CAN'T HEAR YOU THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME INTERFERENCE! HOLD IT! IS THAT--" He suddenly cut off, a bunch of crashing in the backround the call hung up.

And then I woke up, freaking out. Beside me sat some pancakes with a note from Mary.

'I'm dropping by the store for a few. I love you. Enjoy the pancakes!' I just looked at it and picked up my phone. My last call was from Colon apparently. I looked at the time, I should be at work right now. I just scarfed down the pancakes and texted sir.

'Fell asleep, weird dream... I'll be over in a few.' I looked around. Everything looked more or less normal.

'Okay. :)' Johnny texted back. I pocketed my phone.

What's going on right now?
