The picture will make sense in a second, just wait. 

Alola! ...Alright I'm not gonna act like I didn't disappear off the face of Wattpad for awhile there. It's usually takes me alittle over a month to pump out a chapter and now it's been like three, not to mention I haven't really been commenting on stuff or other people's stories. The worst part is I don't even have a good excuse. I don't have school work and my job barely interferes with my schedule. So I'm just gonna say it, I was binging Pokemon Moon alright? But now that I've completed my trials and defeated the Elite Four I can focus on writing again. I'll make it up to you guys, I promise.

Dipper and Mabel were leading Ford out to that old shack they had found a few days ago. "It's shouldn't be much further." Mabel said as they walked though the snow.

Ford kept up with them and pushed a few tree branches out of his way, they were deeper in the forest than he had expected. "This is pretty far out kids. How'd you even find this place to begin with?" He asked.

"Waddles Led Us Out Here." Dipper said with a grin.

"Waddles, really?" Ford said looking down at the pig who in turn looked back at him and snorted. Waddles was wearing thick red and black sweater made by Dipper himself that read 'Some Pig' on the back. It was a good decision seeing as how it gets very cold and Waddles lacks any form of hair or fur to keep him warm during these outdoor adventurers.

"Yeah actually." Mabel started. "Waddles ran off and we had to chase after him. When we found him he was just sitting in front of the shack."

Ford still looked at Waddles for a second, as if pondering something for a moment. "Very interesting." Not much longer they happened upon the small shack, the door swung back and forth with a winding squeak each time. Ford grabbed the door and pushed it open. "Geez, the door looks like it's about to fall off it's hinges." He said walking inside the shack.

Mabel smiled faintly and rubbed her arm. "Yeah, Dipper broke the door trying to get us inside." She said glancing at her brother.

Dipper grinned and walked past her. "Yeah I Did!"

Ford chuckled at them and walked around the room, being drawn to a small work station with a couple shelves above it. The shelves were lined with dusty bottles and jars containing both powders and liquids. The work space had a several rusted knives of varies sizes and uses, the equivalent of a small rolling pin and a muddling stick sat next to a brass cup. Off to the side of the work station there was a pot suspended above what Ford could only assume was a fire pit. He gave a faint smile and dusted off some of the equipment and picked up the muddling sick and cup. "It seems the owner of this establishment was an Alchemist in their time."

Dipper rubbed his head and looked down slightly. He didn't know what an alchemist was. Mabel glanced at him, picking up on his confusion. "An alchemist is someone who breaks down materials and makes things like potions." She somewhat whispered.

"Oh right right." He said quietly.

Ford paid little mind of this and walked over to the old desk and fining a set of old notes in one of the drawer. "Hmm, is this what you were talking about Mabel?" He asked as he scanned though the notes.

Mabel nodded. "Yeah it talks about the moon and the gravitational pull."

Ford read through the notes, being quiet for a minute before grinning. "Interesting, this seems to about the processes of opening portals to other dimensions through use gravitational forces." He said in a mater of fact tone.

The twins looked at each other before Mabel walked up to him. "Uhh, could you elaborate on that Grunkle Ford?" She asked sitting next to him.

Ford glanced at her and chuckled. "I sure can. All the paranormal beings in this town come from another dimension. The same dimension that my portal connects to, but I never told you how it works. See the portal manipulates gravity and pulls apart the... lets call them Dimensional Strings, which opens the portal. To put it simply this is a more primitive version of that, relying on the gravitational forces of the moon instead of using a device." Mabel seemed very interested but Dipper barely understood what Ford was saying. Ford looked through the notes abit more before tilting his head. "Hmm, it looks like the moon phase that they used for this was... the Warning Crescent phase." Their was a vague tone of worry in his voice.

Mabel was too caught up in her own questions to notice this though. "Wait, why a crescent moon? The gravitational pull would be stronger on a full moon, so wouldn't it make sense that it would still open the portal or even open it more on a full moon." She asked. Dipper looked at the drawing Ford had made but didn't say anything.

Ford looked at Mabel again, his worry fading away to a hint of pride as he smiled. "That would make sense in a Three dimensional space Mabel, and I can understand your confusion. But let me try to explain." Ford looked around for a piece of paper as he took out a pen. He drew a circle in the middle of the paper. "Lets say this is our dimension, our world, our Space and our Time." Then he drew a few circle around the first one before putting an 'X' though one of them. "And This dimension is the one where all the paranormal creatures came from." He said before drawing a small crescent moon in 'our dimension'. "Gravity obviously has it's limits and how far it can reach is based on how strong it's pull is." He said as he drew a line from the crescent moon to dimension 'X'. "If the pull is too weak obviously it won't reach far enough. But if it's Too strong..." He drew a representation of the full moon in 'our dimension' then made a line connecting it to the outer circle. "It would go right passed it and connect to a completely different dimension that might not even be close enough to effect this town. Does that make sense?" He asked looking back at her.

Mabel smiled faintly and nodded. "Yeah, sort of. But... 'close enough to effect the town'? What does that mean?" Ford chuckled and started drawing again.

He started rambling on about dimensional rifts and their locations in space and time. Mabel was very focused on what he was talking about and would occasionally ask questions but Dipper just sort of zoned out, he didn't understand what Ford was talking about anyway.

---

The three walked back to the museum not long after Ford's explanation. "That was a very intriguing find kids. I might go back to see if anything else is hidden there." He said as he stomped the snow off his boots before walking inside.

The twins smiled at each other and followed him with Waddles right behind them. "Thanks Grunkle Ford." Mabel said.

Robbie looked up from the counter at them. "Hey Mister Pines, did you and the kids have fun on your little trip?" He asked while handing a customer their change.

Ford nodded and hung his coat up. "Indeed we did. Did everything go well here?" He asked.

"Yup, it's alot easier with Stan over there." Robbie said gesturing over to Stan who seemed to be trying to sell something with all the personality of a used car salesman.

Ford glanced at him and smiled. "Yeah, Stan is a pretty good business man. Is there anyone waiting for a tour?" He asked looking back at Robbie.

"Yeah, there's a few people waiting around back for you." Robbie said.

"Alright, I'm on my way." Ford said as he headed to the back.

Robbie looked back at the twins. "Oh hey, Stan said he needed some help with something earlier. I would of helped him but..." He stretched his arms. "I'm just soo tired."

"Well that and your not suppose to leave the cash register alone for any amount of time while there's customers in the store." Mabel said.

Robbie thought for a second. "Oh yeah, good point. I should use that excuse more often." He said before looking back at his magazine.

Dipper chuckled and walked over to Stan with Mabel. "Hey Grunkle Stan, you need help with something?" He asked.

Stan glanced at them and smiled. "Yeah, I really only need one of you to help though so... which one of you two are stronger?" He asked.

"That Would Be ME!" Dipper said excitedly.

"Wait what?" Mabel started. "You are not, we pretty much equal in strength." She said folding her arm.

Dipper smirked and nudged her arm. "Oh come on Mabes, don't be so grumpy. I'm stronger and you know it, I mean, I'm the one who actually plays sports."

"That doesn't mean anything." She said rolling her eyes.

"Alright alright you two. I know a very easy way to solve this." He said walking over to a table. "Arm Wrestling!" Perhaps alittle too loudly.

The two looked at each other, Dipper smirking slightly. "Alright, lets do this." Dipper said as both he and Mabel walked over to the table. Dipper sat a crossed from his sister and raised his left arm, which was his weaker arm, Mabel took it.

Stan sat along the side of the table. "Alright, on three." He said. "One, two... THREE!"

The struggle lasted little more a few seconds before Dipper won. Dipper laughed and jumped up. "YES, Haha! I Won I Won! I Told Ya So!" He said with a wide grin.

Mabel suppressed a grumble and stood up. "Oh don't be such a show off."

Dipper chuckled and lightly punched her shoulder. "Don't be so grumpy. I'll go help Grunkle Stan, you go have fun exploring or whatever."

Mabel rolled her eyes and walked back towards the door. "Yeah sure whatever... be back soon." She said with a vague tone of annoyance in her voice.

Dipper smiled and went to follow Stan before noticing Waddles, who had a slightly disapproving gaze. I don't know How a pig has a disapproving gaze, but none the less, he had one. "What?" Dipper asked before walking back to Stan.

Waddles grunted and shook his head, once again this was a time where he wished he could speak. But Dipper would figure it out on his own eventually, he was sure. Waddles looked back at Mabel, she was going outside again. He debated following her in case she got in trouble but ultimately decided against it. She was pretty good at staying out of trouble, well, Usually. Waddles got up and trotted after Dipper.

---

Mabel walked through the snow, grumbling alittle. She pulled out Fords journal and started looking though it. "What the heck has gotten into him? ...He doesn't usually brag like that." She started to think about it for a moment but lost her train of thought when she noticed something in the journal.

'Strength Enhancing Crystals. I discovered a very interesting crystal that seems to enhance the physical strength of a person, while strangely enough, Not changing the appearance of the person.'

"Hm, interesting, if not oddly convenient." Mabel said to herself. "But wait..." Mabel started. "How does something like that work without causing any change to someone's appearance?" She looked downat the journal once more and noticed another set of notes.

'After months of research on this crystal I've discovered that the effects of the crystals are caused by lights shinning though certain sides of it. As for HOW it works, it's magic. It works because Magic.'

Mabel chuckled and shook her head. "Great explanation Ford. Well... no harm in going to look I guess."

Mabel walked though the snow following the vague direction that Ford wrote in the journal leading her to a small clearing. In the middle of the clearing was a large crystal jutting out of the ground with other small crystals. Mabel smiled and looked around. "This place looks nice." There were various animals doing considerably impossible things. A rabbit was pulling twelve carrots along effortlessly while on the other hand a squirrel was having trouble dragging a, acorn up a tree. "So it can increase And decrees something's strength. Good to know." She said to herself.

All of a sudden there was a low growling that made Mabel look up to see a large mountain lion perched on a crystal. "Ahhh! Oh wait, I bet it's really weak or something." She said calming herself down. The lion let out another growl before smashing the crystal beneath it's paw. "Not Weak! NOT Weak!" Mabel yelled before turning to run. The lion roared and jumped forward but was grabbed out of the sky by a small bird. Mabel took a few deep breaths and rubbed her head. "I've fought a Shadow monster, a crazy Psychic and a robotic sea monster and I almost got taken out by a mountain lion. What a way to go." Mabel said as she walked up to the shattered crystal and picked a shard. "How am I going to make this work? Oh Wait." Mabel pulled out a small flashlight and placed the crystal over the lens. She flipped on the light and pointed it at the squirrel who then had no trouble pulling the acorn up the tree. Mabel smiled faintly and switched off the flashlight and looked at it, debating on weather or not to use it. "...Just enough to keep Dipper from bragging. That's all I'll do." She said to herself before flipping the flashlight back on.

---

Dipper put down the boxes by the shelf where Stan was. Stan glanced at him as he placed a few items on the shelf. "Thanks kido, your a bunch of help."

"No problem Grunkle Ford." He said with a grin before looking around. "I'm gonna go look for Mabes."

Stan nodded as he looked though the box. "Alright, I got the rest of this."

Dipper walked away and looked around. 'She went outside right?' he thought to himself. But just as he thought that he heard the door open and close, it was Mabel. Dipper smiled. "Hey Sis, how ya do'en?" He asked with a grin.

Mabel smiled faintly and shrugged. "I'm fine, so what did Stan need your help with anyway?" She asked.

"He needed help bring some boxes of merchandise for the store." He said.

"I could of helped with that." Mabel said.

Dipper smiled and nudged her arm. "You Could of, yeah. But I won."

Mabel rolled her eyes. "Oh whatever, I let you win."

"Oh Really?" Dipper asked with a smirk.

Mabel glanced at him and smiled faintly. "Do you need me to prove it?" She asked.

"Meet You Upstairs!" He yelled before running a crossed the shop. Mabel chuckled and and followed him up the steps at a much more leisurely pace. She walked up to their room to find Dipper setting up a makeshift table in the middle of the room.

Mabel smiled and walked to one side of the table. "You ready?" She asked.

Dipper grinned and raised his hand. "Yeah I Am!"

Mabel took his hand. "On three." She said.

Dipper nodded. "One!"

"Two." Mabel started.

"THREE." They both said at the same time. The struggle lasted longer than last time but after a few seconds Mabel won.

Mabel grinned and jumped up. "Yes!" She calmed herself somewhat and smiled at her brother. "See? Told you so." She said still grinning.

Dipper stood up, a look of genuine confusion in his face. "Whoa Whoa Whoa Wait, what the heck just happened? There's No way you did that."

Mabel smirked and folded her arms. "I told you I was going easy on you before."

"You Were Not." Dipper said defensively.

Mable smiled and poke his nose. "Don't be so grumpy." She said intentionally mocking his tone.

Dipper rolled his eyes and pushed her lightly. "Oh shut up." He said begrudgingly.

Suddenly Ford's voice called from downstairs. "Kid's. Could You Come Down Here And Help?" He asked.

"Yeah We'll Be Down In A Minute." Mabel called. She walked towards the door and looked back at her brother. "Are you coming?" She asked.

Dipper nodded and walked up to her. "Yeah but... can I see the journal for a minute?" He asked.

Mabel nodded and took the journal out of her coat pocket. "Yeah sure, what for?" She asked before handing him the journal.

Dipper grabbed the journal and glanced at her. "Oh no reason, I just wanna look though it."

"Alright but don't take to long." Mabel said before heading downstairs.

"I Won't." Dipper called after her before sitting down on his bed and flipping through the pages of the journal. 'There's no way she beat, not on her own. I've known her since forever, there is NO way she beat me.' He thought to himself. It didn't take him long to find the page Mabel was reading before as she had folded the corner of the page down. Something she probably shouldn't do with Ford's journal, but it's sort of a force of habit at this point.

It didn't take Dipper too long to figure what Mabel did. He smirked and closed the journal before getting up and heading downstairs. He looked around for Mabel and found her sweeping in the back of the store. "Here's the Journal back Mabel." He said as he walked up to her.

Mabel looked up at him and took the journal. "Thanks Dip, what were you looking for anyway?" She asked as she put the journal in her pocket, briefly showing the flashlight that she tried to hide.

Dipper smirked slightly and shrugged. "Oh not much, just... THIS!" He said as he quickly grabbed the flashlight and stepped back.

"Hey Give That Back!" Mabel yelled trying to grab it.

Dipper grinned and held her back. "I knew it, I knew there was no way you beat me on your own." He said looking back at her. "Really Mabes, you had to do this?" He said as he held up the flashlight.

"Okay I know I'm sorry Now Give It Back." Mabel said trying grab it again.

Dipper laughed and held it out of her reach. "I don't think so, you gt to mess around with it. Now it's my turn."

"Dipper no, I'll say this one more time. Give, it, back." Mabel said in a serious tone.

Dipper grinned and stepped back. "If you want it, come and get." He said before running off.

"Dipper!" Mabel chased after him. Dipper ran outside with Mabel not far behind. Dipper had made it just outside the forest when Mabel talked him, knocking both of them to the ground. "Give me the flashlight Dipper."

"No!" Dipper yelled before throwing the flashlight behind them so she couldn't reach.

The two struggled for a few seconds, not noticing as a large red hand reached out and carefully picked up the flashlight. "Hmmm... interesting." A deep voice spoke. That got the twins to stop. They looked up to see a large red monster, it's skin looked think and leathery, it's nails grew to a sharpened point and it's head was slimier to that of an alligator. It looked the flashlight over before slowly turning to look at them. "You've made an useful little contraption, haven't you?"

Dipper stepped back and looked at his sister. "Uhh, Mabel..." He whispered.

"I'm looking, I'm looking." She said as she flipped through the journal. "Found it." Mabel read it aloud.

"The Red-Skinned Intimador. In spite of this creature's appearance, it is not very dangerous. It's main, and practically only means of defense is intimidation. It may be able to hurt a person but odds are most people can easily out run it. It's so weak that it struggles to even walk and has to move very slowly."

The Intimador laughed and flipped on the flashlight. "Not anymore though." After a few seconds he stood up straight and placed his hand on a large tree. He pushed on the tree trunk and snapped it in two, almost effortlessly and laughed again before looking down at the twins and tilting his head. "I suggest you stay away from the town if you don't want to get hurt." He said before stomping away.

The twins stood still a few seconds after the monster until Dipper stepped forward. "Great job Mabel. Now a angry monster who want to destroy the town is ridiculously strong. Great Job!" Dipper said turned away from his sister.

Mabel grumbled and looked down. "None of this would of ever happened if you hadn't bragged about being stronger."

"Well Excuse Me For Being Happy About Being Better At Something For Once." Dipper didn't realizes what he was saying until he said it. Then it all went quiet.

Mabel turned to him after a second, a look of confusion and worry visible in her face. "What was that?" She asked.

Dipper tensed up slightly. "Uhh umm, n-nothing it's just... you didn't have any trouble understanding Ford this morning."

Mabel's expressionist softened as she stepped towards him. "Wait a minute, you aren't thinking, what I think your thinking are you?" She asked with a note of concern in her voice.

Dipper looked away and rubbed his arm, for a second he debated lying to her. But he just couldn't. "Whenever Ford talks about science-y things or tries explains stuff it always go over head, makes me feel stupid." He mumbled.

"Hey come on, you are not stupid. Ford went to the biggest college in the country. Of course your not gonna understand everything he says." She said walking up to him.

"But YOU Do!" He snapped catching both Mabel and himself off guard, he didn't mean to yell. "I mean... even if you don't you usually understand his explanations. And it just makes me more confused." He said in a considerably quieter voice.

"So what?" Mabel started. "It's alright to be alittle confused Dip. You don't need to beat yourself about that." She said softly.

"It's not the first time I've felt this way." He said with a humorless chuckle.

He didn't need to explain, Mabel know what he meant. School. Dipper always had trouble school. He struggled to pay attention in class and was easily distracted from focusing on his homework or studies. Mabel grabbed Dipper arm gently, getting him to look at her. "That's what you have me for." She said with a faint smile.

"I know but..." Dipper looked down and rubbed his arm. "I feel bad asking you for help all the time." He said quietly. Mabel helped Dipper with school work, Alot. Homework, studying, projects, you name it she helped him with it. Mabel was one of the few people who A; Could help him study (and more importantly Remember) things and B; Keep him from getting distracted. Of course that took time away from Mabel's work, and it wasn't easy.

Mabel rubbed his arm. "Hey come on, you don't have to feel bad about that. You would do the same for me, right?"

Dipper glanced at her and smiled faintly. "Yeah."

"I'll always be there for you and You'll always be there for me. That was our deal." She smiled and ruffled his hair.

Dipper chuckled and pushed her hand away. "I know, I know. Sorry for getting angry." He said sheepishly.

Mabel smiled and lightly punched his arm. "Don't worry about it, why don't we go stop that monster from destroying the town?"

Dipper grinned and nodded as they headed in the direction were the monster ran off to. "Right, do you have a plan?" He asked.

"Nope." She said as they caught up to the monster.

Slab was pushing him back against a tree. "Let Me Bye You Unruly Pile Of Rocks!" He yelled trying to push him away.

"NO!" Slab roared.

Gravul jumped back trying to avoid the chaos. "Red calm down! We don't want to hurt you!"

Red looked at him and snarled. "Then let me PASS!" He yelled before slamming Slab into the ground.

Gravul jumped back again and noticed the twins hiding behind a tree. "...What are you two doing here?" He asked.

"Trying to solve the problem that we may or may not of indirectly caused." Dipper said.

"Wait, YOU caused this?" Gravul asked, the slightest tone of shock in his voice.

They both looked at each other. "Uhhh..."

"Don't worry about explaining yourselves and explain How you did it." Gravul said quickly.

"We found this crystal that can increase someone physical strength." Mabel answered.

Gravul glanced at her then looked back . "That would explain it. So is That what he has in his hand then?" He pointed to the hand that still tightly held the flashlight. Red was specificity holding the flashlight behind his back, as if trying to protect it as Slab punched him a crossed the face.

"Yup, that would be it." Dipper said.

Gravul sighed. "Great, you two try to stay out of the path. I'll get the flashlight."

"Are you sure you should do this?" Mabel asked.

"I'm the sturdiest of us so I don't think we have a choice. Stay here." Gravul said as he climbed up the tree and perched himself on a branch. He waited till Red was under the branch then jumped, lading on Red's shoulder.

Red felt Gravul's claw like rock fingers dig into his skin and snarled. "Graa! Get Off Of Me!"

He tried knock Gravul off his shoulder but Slab grabbed him by the arm. "LEAVE HIM ALONE!" Slab roared before slamming him against a tree.

Gravul was nearly knock off Red's shoulder from that then climbed down his arm to reach his hand. "Alright Red, give me the flashlight!" He said before biting Red's hand.

"Ahhhh!" Red yelled in pain before dropping the flashlight before Gravul grabbed it. "Give That BACK!" He yelled as slammed Slab to the ground and grabbing Gravul. "Now what little pebble?" He asked with a smirk.

Gravul look up at him and grinned. "Umm, this. CATCH!" He yelled before throwing the flashlight to the twins.

Dipper caught the flashlight and grinned before pointing it at Red. "Say cheese buddy!"

"You gotta flip the crystal around first." Mabel said.

"Oh right." Dipper said before flipping the the crystal around. "Now, Say Cheese Buddy!" Dipper said before turning flashlight on.

Red stumbled under his own weight as he felt his strength fade. He groaned and rubbed his head before hearing a growl from Slab.

Slab pushed himself up from the ground and glared at Red. "PUT. BROTHER. DOWN." He said in a deathly low tone. Red grinned nervously before slowly and carefully placing Gravul on the ground. Slab stepped towards him, still glaring down and the weakened red beast. "NOW LEAVE." Red shrank back and nodded, fear in his eyes before running off into the forest. Slab turned to Gravul and the others before walking over to them. "BROTHER."

Gravul sighed and looked up at him. "I'm fine Slab, thank you." He said before looking back at the twins. "Do I even want to know how this happened?" He asked.

Mabel looked down and rubbed her arm. "Uhh, well I kinda-"

"WE, were helping Ford with an experiment involving the crystals." Dipper said quickly. "But we were messing around with it outside and he got it." Mabel smiled faintly at him.

Gravul looked at them for a second then nodded. "Alright, sounds about as normal as anything else you've done."

"Yeah, sorry about all this." Mabel said.

Gravul chuckled and grinned. "Don't worry about it, we've dealt with worse."

"YES." Slab said before picking up his brother.

Gravul waved at the twins. "We're heading out, try to stay out of trouble you two."

"No Promises!" Dipper yelled with a grin.

Gravul chuckled and rolled his eyes. "See you later."

"BYE" Slab said before walking away.

The twins started heading back to the museum. "You didn't have to do that you know?" Mabel said.

"Do what?" Dipper asked.

"Making an excuse for what happened with the crystal. I was the reason we had it to begin with. It was my fault." She said quietly.

Dipper grinned and nudged her arm. "Hey, don't worry about it. You'd do the same for right?"

Mable smiled faintly and rubbed her arm. "Yeah."

Dipper chuckled and put his arm around her. "Come on, lets head back. Ford might start to wonder where we are, besides I'm getting cold."

Mabel chuckled and shook her head. "You need to start wearing a coat Dip-Dot."

Dipper just chuckled and rolled hos eyes. "I'll be fine." He said as they headed back.

Bill waited patiently in the Mindscape, this time it was Fiddleford who had called the meeting. That was unusual for him, it made Bill just the slightest bit worried. But he would never show it of course.

Suddenly Fiddleford materialized in the Mindscape, it didn't take him very long this time. "My lord, we have a problem."

Bill turned to him and folded his hands. "I figured that much. What happened?" He asked.

"The cops." He started. "They got inside the base."

"Did you catch them?" Bill asked.

Fiddleford nodded. "Yes."

Bill paused for a moment, looking away. "Well... did you erase their memories?"

"Yes, I did." Fiddleford answered.

"Then what's the problem?" Bill started. "Blubs gets in here like once or twice a month. You always deal with him, so what's the problem-"

"There Was Two Of Them!" He snapped. "It's one thing to erase part of the memory of one person, but it's something else entirely to erase the Same part of two people's memories. They are going to realize something is wrong."

Bill slid his eye to him. "Did you just yell at me?" Bill's tone cut right Fiddleford, making him almost feel numb as he shrank back. Bill narrowed his eye. "That's what I thought." He said before floating over to Fiddleford. "Now, in spite of your outburst I do agree with you. This is a problem, I assume you aren't going to kill them."

"My Lord, you know what will happen if they 'suddenly disappeared'." Fiddleford started.

Bill sighed. "I know, I know. There will be a big investigation and they could find the bunker and then it'll All Be Over. So what do we do?" He asked.

Fiddleford rubbed his arm. "I... don't know my Lord."

In an odd way Bill was actually Glad he said that. He took on a cheery demeanor as he put his arm around Fiddleford. "That's okay Mcgucket, I do. And don't worry, it doesn't involve hurting or killing anyone. We're just going to... speed up our current plan so we don't have to worry about Anyone anymore." He said.

"Alright... what do we do?" He asked.

Bill chuckled and looked at him. "The first thing we need to do, is catch a Shooting star."

Alright lets address the elephant in the room, this is probably only the third or fourth time I've had Ford use Science-y mumbo-jumbo talk. The reason for that is simple, I'm Not Smart! Especially when it come's to science, anything above photosynthesis and a few medical terms and you've lost me. So I have to do one of three things to make Ford sound smart. One; hope it's something I know about (which isn't often). Two; do a bunch of research, which I don't want to do. I love this story, but I am not doing science homework for every chapter. And Three; rely on the wacky rules of Science Fiction which is what I do in this chapter. I don't know what possessed to write that stuff at the beginning of this chapter, But I Love It! It's so much fun explaining how my world works!

Also, Warning Crescent Phase... I didn't make that up, that is a real thing. Like I said before, sometimes I do research. I wanted to figure out which moon phase best represents the phase from the Crescent Eye's logo. No surprise, there's like, a million different lists of names for the moon phases. But when I found the list with THAT name in it, I couldn't Not it. It Was Perfect!

Anyway what do you guys think? Was it worth the wait?
