Welcome To Gravity Rises! (except the town is still called Gravity Falls... Some people call the town Gravity Rises though, but that doesn't make sense to me... Start Reading!)

We open on a seen of a bus driving down an old dirt road in the middle of Origin on a lightly snowy day. Inside the bus among other people are two twin, Dipper and Mabel, who are going to visit their Great Uncle Stanford for winter break. Ford is a paranormal investigator who runs a small museum in the sleepy town of Gravity Falls, the Mystery Museum. This museum both displays and funds his research.

The twins haven't seen him in years and were both excited to finally visit him again. Mabel was excited because much like her great uncle, she was fascinated with the paranormal and was hoping to learn more about it while she was there. And Dipper was excited because... well it doesn't take much to excite him.

Mabel was reading a magazine a Ford had sent them. "I wonder if we'll find anything while we're there." She said smiling.

Dipper grinned looking up from his game, he had brought his hand-held system just in case he got bord, which he did on the long ride. "Yeah like another six legged frog like the one last time we were here. You spent the whole day trying to catch that thing convinced it was the Creature from the Black Lagoon."

"Hey, do I need to remind you who helped me to catch it that whole day?" She asked smirking at him.

"I was bored." He said looking back at his game. "But... it was still pretty fun." He said smiling. Dipper was never quite as into the paranormal as Mabel was, but he rarely passed up a chance to go 'monster hunting' with her. There was just something fun about looking for things that could be coincided weird.

With that Mabel just rolled her eyes and picked up her magazine again. After awhile Mabel looked out the window to see the 'Welcome to Gravity Falls' sign. She smiled and nudged Dipper who was somewhat engulfed him his game. "Hey Dip, we're here!" She said as the bus pulled up to the stop. Dipper smiled and pushed himself off the seat and grabbing his stuff. "Come on Dipper." Mabel said waiting for him.

"I'm coming." He chuckled following her off the bus. The two watched the bus drive away. "So Grunkle Ford did say he'd meet us here right?" Dipper asked.

"Yes, I did." A familiar voice said behind them.

The twins turned around to see a smiling Ford standing by his car. "Grunkle Ford!" They both said running up to hug him.

Ford laughed and looked down at them. "Hey kids, good to see you. It's been far too long."

Mabel grinned and looked up at her Great Uncle. "How has your research been going Grunkle Ford? Have you found anything interesting?"

Ford chuckled and ruffled her hair. "Yes I have. And I'll be happy to tell you all about it." He said with a warm smile.

"That's great and all and I'm just as excited to hear All about your extensive research as well, but why we don't get to the museum first? I'm getting cold out here." Dipper said rubbing his arms.

"I told you to wear a coat." Mabel said. Dipper was only wearing a long sleeved t-shirt and shorts of all things. Mabel had the sense to dress a bit warmer with a light winter coat and jeans.

Dipper rolled his eyes. "Oh I'll be fine." He said before a cold wind blew though causing him to shudder.

Ford gave a faint chuckle and shook his head. "Alright you two, lets get going." He said gesturing to the car. The twins smiled at each other before getting inside the car followed by a chuckling Ford. With that he started the car and headed towards the museum. After a minute or so of driving Ford remembered to say something. "Oh yeah, I forgot to mention I have two employees that work with me at the shop. Soos, and Robbie. Robbie just works during the day but Soos actually lives with me there." He said.

"Oh. good to know." Mabel said quietly rubbing her arm.

"Don't worry." Ford started picking up on her nervous tone. "Soos is a big lovable luge and Robbie... well, he's harmless at least." He said focusing on the road.

"I can't wait to meet Soos. He Sounds Awesome!" Dipper said with a grin.

"Yeah, I get the feeling you two will get along great with him." Ford said as he pulled up to the museum. "Now come on you two. They should both be waiting inside." The twins got out of the car getting their stuff from the trunk as they followed Ford to inside, there as he said was Robbie and Soos. "Alright you guys introduce yourselves and make nice. I need to go do something downstaris." He said before unlocking a door in the room.

Soos smiled waving at them. He was a large husky man with a friendly smile. He had a green shirt with a question-mark on the front. He looked to be in his mid thirties. "Sup little Dudes. My name's Soos."

"And I'm Robbie. Welcome to Gravity Falls kids." He said with a faint smile and leaned against the counter of the cash register. Robbie was tall and thin with black haired who looked to be about sixteen, he had a calm demeanor to him. He wore a plaid shirt and had a tattoo along his right arm. Mabel stared at him for a second but caught herself and looked away before anyone noticed.

Dipper smiled and walked up to them. "Hey Guys I'm Dipper. Grunkle Ford says you both work for him, That's So Cool! I Bet You Guys get To Do Alot Of Neat Stuff, It's Great To Meet You!" He said enthusiastically before looking back at sister who hadn't yet said a word. He smiled and put his arm around her pulling her forward abit before looking back at Robbie and Soos. "This is my twin sister Mabel." He said with a grin.

Mabel pushed him alittle but then looked up at them and smiled shyly. "Uh, hi... nice to meet you." She said quietly before looking down and rubbing her arm.

Robbie looked at her. "Like wise."

He was about to say something to the quiet girl but was cut off by Soos. "So um, your name is Dipper..." Soos started.

"It's a nickname." Dipper said. "Do you want to know how I got it?" He asked quirking an eyebrow. Soos nodded eagerly. Dipper smiled and sat on a high stool and moved the tuft of hair away from his forehead revealing a birth mark shaped almost exactly like the Big Dipper.

Soos looked at this for a second before his eyes widened in amazement. "Wow, that probably the most amazing thing I've ever seen." He said.

Robbie looked at him and nodded. "Pretty cool kid."

Dipper smiled and pushed his hair down. "Yeah, I've had it ever since I was born. They say it's just a normal birth mark. But I think I know what it really is."

Mabel just rolled her eyes and walked over to the living room, she knew where this was going. Dipper started rambling off a story about destiny, past lives and some kind of epic quest. A story Mabel has heard a thousand times. Soos listened intently and Robbie... well he heard what Dipper was saying. He knew full well that the kid was making up every word but didn't say anything as not to ruin it for Soos.

About half way though Dipper's surprising long story Robbie looked over to see Mable sitting by herself in the big armchair in the living room. "Hmm..." He walked over to her and smiled. "Hey kid. What'cha reading?" He asked nonchalantly.

Mabel looked up from her book, if not slightly hiding behind it. "Oh Umm... it's just a little book that talk's about monsters and ghosts and stuff like that." She said quietly before looking away again.

Robbie smiled and sat down in one of the chairs. "No kidding, you like that stuff huh? You and Ford are gonna get along great." He said with a laugh.

Mabel smiled faintly and rubbed her arm. "Well I might of got it from him." She mumbled. "Me and Dipper came here when we were younger. He showed me a few things and uhh, I stort of found some stuff and... I really liked it here." She said looking at him. She usually didn't talk much to people she just met. But Robbie came off kinda nice and patiently listened to her.

"Well I know Ford will be happy to hear that. He's been so excited for you two coming here, you have No idea." He said with a laugh before getting up. "Okay, I gotta get going now. Dad will have a fit if I'm not home on time. We should hangout later though." He said looking at her.

Mabel smiled and gave a faint nodded. "Sure."

Robbie nodded back and walked towards the door. "Alright See Ya Guys Tomorrow."

"Have a good day Robbie." Ford said coming back into the room.

"Bye Robbie." Soos Said waving.

Dipper waved as Robbie left before realizing he had somewhat forgotten about his sister while telling his story. He looked over to see her sitting in the arm chair an smirked. "HEY MABEL!" He yelled jumping on the chair beside her, grinning widely. He knew full well he caught her off guard.

Mabel jumped, nearly falling off the chair in the process. "Dipper! You jerk!" She said pushing him, though still smiling slightly.

Ford watched them for a seconds and smiled before walking over to them. "Alright you two, I know you just got here but it's getting late. And you still need to unpack your stuff. I have your room set up in the addict." He said.

"Alright." They said as they followed him up to the addict. It was a small wooden room with one large triangular shape window in the back and two bed one either side.

"I call the right side!" Dipper yelled running over to the bed on the right side on the room.

Ford chuckled and looked around. "Yeah it's not the greatest room ever but it's all I had on short notice."

"I think it's fine Grunkle Ford." Mabel said walking over to her side of the room.

Ford smiled. "Well I'm glad you like it. Get yourselves settled in, I'll see you two tomorrow morning. Good night kids." He said walking through the door.

"G'night Grunkle Ford!" Dipper yelled.

Mabel smiled as she took a few things out of her suitcase. Along with her cloths she had an assortment of books and writing utensils. "This is going to be awesome. I can't wait to get to go looking around the forest tomorrow, Who knows what we might find here. Maybe we can even go on a hunt with Ford" She said laying down on her bed, a big smile still spread a crossed her face.

Dipper glanced at her and chuckled. He was glad to see her so excited. It was a nice change of pace for her. "Don't get too excited Sis, or else I'm gonna start thinking that I'll have to leave without you." He said with a laugh.

"Oh don't be Silly Dip." Mabel started. "I would be bored in a week without you." She said.

Dipper glances up slightly and smiled before stretching his arms and yawning. "Alright, I'm getting tired. Time to go to bed." He said pulling at his blankets.

Mabel smiled and nodded. "Okay, Good night Bro. See you in the morning." She said turning off her light.

"G'night Sis." Dipper said turning off his light as well. And with that, the twins drifted off to sleep.

---

Mabel rubbed her eyes and woke up at around seven o'clock that morning. She had a pretty consistent internal alarm-clock, causing her to usually wake up at same time every day. After she stretched her arm she got up to get dressed. She'd already set out her clothes the night before, an old brown t-shirt with a star on the front of it, blue jeans and her same coat from yesterday. She looked over to see Dipper still fast asleep. She rolled her eyes and walked over to him. "Diippper, come on Bro time to wake up." She said shaking him lightly. Dipper groaned and turned away, he always had trouble waking up in the morning, probably cause he had trouble falling asleep at night. Mabel folded her arms and smirked. "Dipper come on. I know how to wake you up." She said poking his side.

That got Dipper up quickly. "Ahh Okay, okay! I'm Up!" He said laughing nervously.

Mabel chuckled and stepped back. "Good, now get dressed lazy bone. I'll meet you downstairs." She said before heading towards the door.

Dipper rubbed his eye and nodded got up from his bed, still half asleep. "uhright Mm be down ina minnut." He said as he got out one of his hand made long sleeve t-shirts. An old blue and yellow with a large star on the front of it, one of his favorites. Dipper liked making his own stuff. When he was little he use to draw on white T-shirts, that eventually led to him learning how to sew. He mostly just made shirts, same basic design with the only differences being the colors and the image on the front, he had a bunch of them. Never wore the same one twice in a month. Some of his shirts were down right ridicules, from somewhat normal things like dogs, cars and dragons to his more weird ones like Pens, peanuts and... a toaster? But it was much cheaper to buy the raw materials than it was to buy actual shirts, so his parents never complained. After all, 'it's what made him special'.

After making sure Dipper didn't just fall back asleep like he occasionally does Mabel headed downstairs to find an already awake Ford and Soos. Ford looked up and smiled. "Morning Mabel, where's your brother?" He asked, while cooking some breakfast.

Mabel looked up at him and sat at the table. "He'll be down soon. He's just having trouble walking up." 'Like he always does.' She thought to herself chuckling. Not long after that they heard creaking on the steps.

Dipper made his way down the steps stretching his arms and walk over to the table. "Morning everyone." He said sitting down next to Mabel.

"Morning Dude." Soos said waving at Dipper.

Ford smiled and and gave them each a plate of scrambled eggs and toast. "Here ya go you two. I'm not much of a chief, but I hope you enjoy." He said sitting on the other side of the table.

"Thanks Grunkle Ford." Dipper said starting to eat.

Ford smiled and looked at them. "Oh, and I forgot ask you two. I know your on Christmas brake and all, but you know I run a small gift shop here and I would really appreciate it if you two would help with a few things."

"Well..." The two started glancing at each other.

"Of course I'd be paying you for it, that's only far." He said smiling.

"We'll Do It!" They both said excitedly.

'I thought that would work.' Ford thought to himself chuckling.

"But um, Grunkle Ford..." Mabel started looking down. "We'll still have time to go out monster hunting right?" She asked smiling faintly.

Ford laughed. "Of course, just promise me if you two find anything interesting you'll tell me." He said.

The two nodded and smiled at each other. "After breakfast?" Dipper whispered.

Mabel smiled and nodded. "Defiantly." She answered.

Once they were done with breakfast the twins got up and headed for the door. After alittle insisting from Mabel for Dipper to put on a coat they headed outside into the snowy forest. Ford watch and chuckled to himself. "You're really happy to have them here aren't ya mister Pines?" Soos asked.

He laughed and leaned back in his chair. "Yes Soos, yes I am." He answered.

The twins made there way to the forest behind the museum. Dipper smiled and looked around. "Man this place is big. Hey, you think we should split up? We can cover more ground and maybe find something quicker." He said.

Mable looked down. "I don't know, what if one or Both of us get lost?" She asked.

"Oh come on." Dipper started. "We won't go far, this isn't our first time looking around a forest." He said with a grin.

"Alright alright, just be careful." She answered.

"Don't Worry I Will!" Dipper yelled running off into the forest.

Mabel just chuckled and looked around. The snow reflected the sunlight and covered almost everything. From the ground to the tree limbs. "This place is so pretty." She said with a smile. Little did she know however that something was following her her from a distance. Just as she turns around to see something jump at her, causing her to stumble back against a tree. "Ahhh!"

"Baaa." A small goat jumps up on a rock and looks down at her before running off.

Mabel got back up and rubbed her head. "Just a goat, nothing weird." She said, but as she did she realized she heard something else when she feel against the tree, a metal bang. Both confused and curies, she walked up to the tree and knocking on the trunk a few times. When she does this she hears the same metallic sound. It turns out to be a metal door in the tree that reviled a few buttons and a joint stick. "What is this suppose to do?" She asked hitting a few of the buttons.

After a minute or so of messing with the controls she heard a maniacal clanking sound and looked over to see a large hole opening in the ground and a metal cabinet rising from the ground. "This day just keeps getting weirder." Mabel said walking up to the cabinet. On the cabinet was a door with a large crescent moon symbol engraved on it, but Mabel payed little mind to that and opened the door to reveal a large red book inside. "A book... who put this here?" She asked picking up the book, inside were multiple detailed entries of monsters with illustrations and information. Mabel recognized some on the monsters, but not most of them. "Wow... it's a monster journal." She said as she flipped through the pages.

"HEY MABEL!" Dipper yelled jumping out from behind the tree.

Mabel nearly jumped out of her skin, almost dropping the journal in the process. "Ahhh! DIPPER, do you Have to do that?" She asked turning to him.

Dipper laughed and walked up to her. "Sorry Sis, sorry. It was just too easy." He said still chuckling to himself. He then looked around and noticed the somewhat unusual seen. "Uhh, what'd you find Sis?" He asked looking back at her.

A smile crept onto Mabel's face as she walked up to show him the journal that she found. "Check this out Dip. I found this old book in all this weird devices. It's filled with descriptions of all sorts of monsters." She said smiling.

Dipper smiled and looked at the book. "Cool, you found this out here?" He looks over at the mechanical cabinet before looking back at the book. He glances at the cover of the book and noticed something. "Uhh hey Mabes." He started. "Dud you look at the hand print on the front?"

"What about it-" Just as she asked that she noticed the golden hand had six fingers. Just like Their Great Uncle Ford. The two looked at each other and smiled at each other. "It's Grunkle Ford's! It's gotta be!" Mabel said looking back at the book, laughing to herself.

"Yeah who else would write a book like this?" Dipper chuckled. "Think we should go back and show him?" He asked.

Mabel nodded. "Yeah lets go. After all, we did promised him we'd show him if we found anything." She said as they started walking back to the museum.

"Good, cause I'm starting to get cold out here." Dipper said rubbing his arms.

But as they were walking back a creature who was drawn to the noise from the cabinet raising up had come looking for the sound. It looked around from the bushes for a second before it's eyes landing on the twins, it let out a low growl.

"You should of dressed warmer." Mabel started. "You're gonna get sick if you keep dressing like that." She said, unaware they were being followed.

"Oh I'll be fine. It's just alittle cold weather." Dipper said. Mabel was about to respond but was cut off by a loud high pick voice.

"HUMANS! YOU DARE TO ENTER OUR FOREST!?" It yells out still keeping it's self hidden.

This causes the twins jump and look around. "Who's there?" Dipper asks

"Who is there?" He laughed. "Me, the great Gravul one of the prestigious Golems of the forest!" He yelled proudly.

Dipper glanced at Mabel then looked around. "Uhh Mabe, is there anything in that book about Golems?" He asked stepping back.

"Uhh I don't know." Mabel said flipped through the book. "Found it! 'The Golem is an animated anthropomorphic being, magically created entirely from inanimate matter. They are large rock like creatures and very dangerous. Avoid At ALL cost!' ...Well that doesn't sound good."

Gravul let out a laugh. "That's Right Humans! Now Face The Wrath Off The Golem!" He then jumps down, and he is only a few feet tall.

The twins look at him for a second before Dipper glanced at Mabel. "Uhh Mabes..?" He started being very confused.

Mabel being equally confused looked back at the book. "Oh, here we go. 'However on rare occasion some of them can be rather small. While not as dangerous as it's larger counter part they can still do damage. Keep an eye on it.' Huh."

"Aww, he's so cute!" Dipper said going over to pet him. "He's like a living pet rock!"

Gravul growled and swiped at his hand. "Don't Touch Me!" He yelled.

"Dipper! Would you be alittle more careful." She said trying not to laugh herself at the considerably funny seen.

Dipper chuckled and looked back at her. "Oh don't worry, he's harmless- OWW!" Just as he said that Gravul bit his arm.

The small Golem then jumped back a growled. "I Am Not A Pet!" He yelled.

"You alright Dip?" Mabel asked walking up to her brother.

Dipper nodded and glanced at Mabel. "Yeah, I'm fine." He answered looking back down a Gravul.

"Not For Long Human!" Gravul Yelled pointing at them.

Dipper rubbed his head then looked back at Mabel. "So what do we do now?" Dipper asked.

"Uhh, walk away." She answered.

"Alright." He said smiling as the two headed back to the museum.

"Hey! Come Back Here!" Gravul Yelled chasing after them.

"So how do you think Grunkle Ford is going to react to this?" Dipper asked.

Mabel shrugged and continued walking. "I don't know. The thing I'm really wondering is how this book got out here in the first place though. You think Grunkle Ford put it here?" She asked.

Gravul realizing he was being ignored, growled and let out a yell. "BROTHER!" With that a set of heavy, and loud foot steps could be heard approaching them.

Then a much larger Rock creature stepped out from the forest and walked over to Gravul. "BROTHER..." It said in a low raspy voice as he went to pick up Gravul.

"Hello Slab." Gravul said sitting on his shoulder.

Dipper backed up and glanced at his sister. "Uhh Mabel..." He started.

"Run." Mabel said as Slab turned to them.

"AFTER THEM!" Gravul yelled as the twins ran off. Slab roared and charged into the forest. The twins barely ran out of the way causing Slab to slam his head into a tree. "Are you alright Slab?" Gravul asked.

Slab groaned and rubbed his head. "HEAD HURTS..." He said.

As this is happening the twins hid behind a rock. "We gotta make a run for it he finds us." Mabel said quietly peering out from the rock.

Dipper glanced at her. "Yeah, but we're not gonna be able to out run that thing. Of they see us..." Dipper shook his head at that thought. "We can't risk it."

"Oh Now Were Did They Go?!" Gravul yelled jumping down from Slab's shoulder. He walked over to an over hang. "Did they jump off the cliff or something- AHHH!" Just as he was looking down the drop his foot slipped and he nearly feel off, barely grabbing the snow covered edge. "Ahhhh! Brother! Help!" He yelled trying to pull himself up.

"GRAVUL!" Slab yelled rushing over to him.

"Now's our chance." Mabel said getting ready to run.

"Wait." Dipper said grabbing her arm. "We can't just leave him."

"Sure we can. They are trying to kill us!" She said.

"Yeah but if he falls that big guy is just going to be more angry. But maybe, just Maybe if we help, they won't hurt us." Dipper said glancing at the Golems.

Mabel thought about it for a second then sighed. "I hate it when your right. Come on let's go."

"Ahhh... Slab back off! Your gonna knock me off the cliff!" Gravul said looking down at the pit below.

"BROTHER." Slab said getting worried.

"Hey." Mabel said getting their attention. "Look, just step back. We can help."

Slab let out a growl before Gravul stopped him. "Brother... let them help." He said feeling his grip loosen.

With that the twins rushed up to him. "Okay give me your hand." He said reaching his hand down. Gravul grabbed his hand, he is much heavier than he looks.

Mabel grabbed his other hand. "Alright, on three." She said, Dipper nodded. "One, Two, THREE!" The both said pulling him up.

Gravul sat on the ground and rubbed his head. "Brother!" Slab yelled.

"Yes I'm alright Slab." He said before looking back at the twins. "...Why did you help me?" He asked.

"Because we don't want to be enemies." Mabel said.

"Yeah, we were just trying to have fun. We didn't want any trouble." Dipper said smiling.

Gravul groaned and looked down. "And here I was trying to kill you two. Gee, don't I look like the bad guy. I'm sorry." He said quietly.

Mabel looked at her brother before turning back to Gravul. "It's fine, but can I ask why you were being so..."

"Hostile?" Dipper finished for her.

"Humans mean..." Slab stated.

Gravul rubbed his head and nodded. "Yeah, most humans try to hurt us. So I guess we just came to expecting you to do the same."

"Yeah that would explain it." Mabel said.

"But it wasn't fair to you." He said getting up. "If I hadn't nearly fallen just then we could of seriously hurt you. Or Worse! What have I become? I won't let it happen again. In fact..." He started as he turned back to them. "If you need help with anything, And I mean Anything, Come looking for us. We'll be glad to help."

Mabel smiled a bit but looked down. "Thanks but you don't really need to-"

"Oh come on, it's the Least we can do after what just happened!" Gravul said smiling.

Mabel looked back at Dipper who nodded eagerly. And with that she sighed and smiled. "Alright fine, if it will make you feel better."

"YAY!" Slab yelled before picking his brother up.

"Alright then, we must be off then. I will be hoping to see you soon my new friends! Uhh, what are your names anyway?" He asked.

"I'm Mabel and this is my brother Dipper." Mabel said.

"Ahh siblings as well I see." Gravul said smiling. "No wonder you're so nice. Now Brother, On Word!" He yelled as Slab walked off deeper into the forest.

The twins watched them leave then Dipper turned to Mabel. "Well, that went better than expected." He said smiling.

Mabel couldn't help but laugh. "That was definitely a lot more exciting than a six legged frog. Come on, let's go tell Grunkle Ford!" She said putting the journal in her coat.

The twins headed back to the museum and immediately went looking for Grunkle Ford, they found him in the living room and started excitedly telling him about what happened. Ford laughed and tried to calm them both down. "Whoa Whoa Whoa, one at a time. What are you two talking about? A Golem?" He asked looking down at them.

Mabel smiled and started off. "Well, first we were walking through the forest when we heard this voice. It was this one Golem that was smaller than us."

Ford started to laugh then stopped. 'Small..?' "Uhh, really now?" He said rubbing his arm.

"Yeah, but then he called his brother who was like, Alot bigger. The almost crushed us. But then the little one almost fell off the cliff and we helped him." Dipper said excitedly.

"And now we're friends with some Golems." Mabel finished off smiling.

Ford just looked at them for a second then smiled. "Wow... one day in and you already found something it took me weeks to find." He said smiling at them.

"Oh yeah, and we also found this." She said taking out the journal and handing it to him.

Ford just stared at it for a minute. "You... you found my journal..." He said in disbelief as he opened it.

"So you Did write it." Dipper said looking at the journal.

"Yes, I did." He started. "Where did you find it?" He asked very confused.

"Well..." Mabel started. "I found this control panel that was hidden behind metal door made to look like the bark of a tree and then when I hit a few a buttons this platform rose up and then I found it in there." She said in a jumbled mess of words. "Did you put it there?"

"No!" Ford said. "Someone stole it from me. A long time ago long with another one of my journals." He said looking back at them.

The twins looked at each other. "Stole it?" they both asked looking back at him.

Ford nodded. "Yes, I wrote three of these actually. They never found the the first one I wrote..." He said looking at the door to his lab. "But they took my second one, and this one." He said looking back at the journal. The then looked back at the twins and smiled. "You two are something else. I've been looking for this for a long time and you found them in One Day!" He smiling before handing it back to Mabel. "Here, hold on to this for me. And keep an eye out for the second journal. Cause you certainly have better luck then me. Just don't lose it." He said laughing.

Mabel smiled and looked at the journal . "Thanks Grunkle Ford." She said.

"No problem." Ford smiled then looked back at the shop. "Oh and by the way, I overstocked a few items in the store today. Why don't you two go pick something from the gift shop. On the house." He said.

Dipper didn't need to be to be told twice. He laughed and ran to the gift shop. Mabel glanced at him and chuckled. "Thanks Grunkle Ford." She said before following Dipper to the shop. She smiled and looked around the shop before finding a white T-shirt with a blue pine tree on it. It was kinda big for her but she didn't really care about that and picked it up. "Yeah, that'll work." She said.

"And I pick..." Dipper started as he rummaged through a box. "A Grappling Hook!" He yelled with excitement holding it up.

"You guys Sell grappling hooks?" Mabel asked looking back at Ford.

Ford just laughed and rubbed his head. "Uhh yeah, but wouldn't you rather have like... a toy or something?" He asked smiling alittle.

Dipper's answer was to shoot the grappling hook at the ceiling and pull himself up to the rafters. "Grappling Hook!" He yelled again.

Mabel looked up at him and chuckled at his antics. "Great but how are you going to get down from there Dip-Dot?" She asked, using his nickname for whenever he did something particularly goofy. Dipper looked around a few times before grinning nervously back down at his sister. Mabel sighed and shook her head alittle. "Hold on, I'll go get a ladder." She said walking away.

Mabel eventuality got him down from the ceiling and not long after that the two headed to their room. Dipper laughed and jumped on his bed, he still had too much energy to sleep right now. He smiled and looked back at Mabel who had been flipping though the pages of the journal since they got up there. "How you liking the book Sis?" He asked jumping back down on the bed.

Mabel looked up at him with a smile. "It's awesome! Hes got like... a hundred different monsters and paranormal things in here! There's just something that's confusing me." She said looking back at the book.

"What is it?" He asked.

"It's just, I don't get why someone steal it. Sure it's cool, but what would you do with it?" She said looking looking back at her brother.

Dipper shrugged and laid down. "Don't know, maybe they're just a big monster nerd like you and wanted All The Information For Themselves!" He said grinning.

Mabel rolled her eyes. "Oh shut up." She said putting the journal down. "I'm going to bed now, could you get the light?" She asked pulling her blanket up.

"I'm On It!" He said pointing the grappling hook at the light switch before firing and somehow turning off the light. "I Can't Believe That Worked!" He Yelled.

That got Mabel to laugh alittle. "Good night Bro."

"G'night Sis." He said putting the grappling hook down before drifting off to sleep.

---

In a bunker deep below the town, an old man learned of the journal going missing.

"WHAT?!" He yelled in anger at his messenger.

He shrank back in fear. "I'm sorry sir. But someone found the third journal and took it."

"Do you have Any idea what it means now that we lost a Journal?" He asked glaring at him.

"Yes, I do know sir. But there is good news." He said smiling nervously. "We have them on recording."

The old man sat back down and calmed down. "That's the only reason I'm not killing you right now. Pull it up." He said looking at the large screen in front of him.

"Yes Sir!" He said pulling up the images.

On the screen was shown several images of the twins with the journal. "Children? Do you know who they are."
