Episode One: Tourist Trappers.

        A valley, peace full and sunny. Some deer eating the grass, and birds chirping. "Ahhh..... Summer. Summer is when school lets out for the kids to have a prison break! Some say it's a time of relaxation, but I say it's a time to catch up on my studies and read as much as I want!" Says a female voice. (A.K.A. Gravity Rises Mabel)

        You hear children screaming and are shown a sign that reads: Welcome! To Gravity Rises! Where adventure was raised and wonders await! You next see a go-cart busting through the sign with two screaming 12 year olds and just as they bust through, the scene pauses. "Now who are they?! You wonder? The girl screaming her head off and driving the cart is me, Mabel Pines, named for my aunt, Mabel, who married Gideon Gleeful. Now who's the boy also screaming bloody murder? You ask? My elder twin brother, Mitchell, who goes by Dipper do to his birthmark of the little dipper."

         The scene plays again and the cart lands on the ground and takes off just as a giant glowing rock monster busts through. "WHY ARE THEY BEING CHASED BUY A ROCK GIANT?! You ask?"

~Mabel's POV starts~

Well here's how it started....

        Our parents decided to send us to the small town of Gravity Rises to spend the Summer with our great uncle Fiddletown Northwest...

        I walk into an attic room with Dipper. "What do ya think?" Says our great uncle, Fiddletown Northwest. "It's... nice?" I say as I look about the room. It's in the attic with a slanted ceiling and everything. There is a small loft just over where a bathroom and closet lay. There's also a bunk bed in the corner furthest away from the door, and a long table with two chairs and an old computer.

        We look around a bit, until Dipper jumps on the top bunk. "OLDEST GETS TOP!" He shouts, and I smile then shake my head. No matter how opposite me and my twin can be, we still love each other. I walk over to find an old fat pig standing on my bed. "Aaand, there's a pig on my bed." I say in a disinterested tone. Dipper bends down to look. "AWE! It's cute!" He says in his upside down position. Like that, his bangs fall to reveal his little dipper birth mark.

        I roll my eyes and shoo the animal off before setting my duffle bag on the bed. "Do you think I'll get any girlfriends?!" I hear my girl crazy brother say excitedly. "Who knows." I say and take out one of my books then read.

        Latter on, we're all eating lunch. "I hope y'all like it here, cuz your workin' to!" Says Fiddletown. We nod. Dad explained this to us before we left Piedmont. We finish eating and head out side. To get there, we head out the living quarters door, then walk down some stairs that take you down a whole floor to the 'back porch' then we walk around the building to the main entrance to the Wonder Shack! Yup, Fiddletown turned the bottom floor of his home into a tourist trap! There are two doors with about 5 1/2 feet between them. The one to your right enters the show! Where you get to see moddles of all the wonders of the world! The left side is a gift shop that is reached at the end of their tour, then exits out this door.

        We just enter the gift shop directly and Fiddletown runs to the back to get dressed for today. I walk up to the register by the door, that has a second side that's in the entrance to the tour so one person can work both registers, and that person is local 15 year old Roberto Valentine! "Hay Roberto!" I say and hop up to sit on the counter as he smiles at me. He wears a black tank, an undone button up red and black plaid shirt, ripped black jeans, and black army boots with a red beanie, and tats covering his body.

         I sigh. I normally don't like guys with tats, but all his have a story on as to why they're there. "Please Mabes, call me Robbie." He says and I nod as my cheeks flush pink. "HAY! May-May!" I hear Dipper call me and I go over to him in the back wear he's holding up a snow globe with the Shack inside. "THIS IS WHERE WE ARE NOW!" He shouts and I cringe at the volume.

         When Fiddletown comes out he looks to us. "Now, Dipper, go grab a broom and sweep the floor. Mabel, restalk the shelves, inventory is in back." He says, and just before we walk away, Dipper pipes up. "Can we call you our Gruncle?!" He asks and Fiddletown turns around. "Wha-?" He starts, but is cut off by my twin. "Our dad and his twin sister call their great uncles, Stan and Ford, their Gruncles! It's like a combination of great and uncle! GRUNCLE! So can we?!" He explains and Fiddletown thinks a bit. "Sure, why not?" He answers and walks away.

         Latter that very day, Gruncle Fiddletown, or Gruncle Fids, as he prefer we call him, comes up to me, Dipper, and Robbie. "Who is hanging the signs?" He asks, holding a bunch of wood signs, nails, and a hammer. "I've got to stay put for clients." Robbie answers. "I've got to clean where that kid peed himself!" Dipper lies and runs off, I've been here all day and at no time did anyone pee themselves! He puts the items in my arms. "Go." He says and I bow my head then leave to hang the signs.

         I start hanging the signs on trees until I trip on a rock. When I look back at the oddly metal feeling rock, I raise a brow. I kick my foot at it while still on the ground, and it sounds like I'm kicking hollow metal, not a rock! I crawl over and try to pick it up, but instead, it emits a dark gray smoke and a small top of it opens up to reveal two buttons, a white one and a black one. I look at it confused, and out of curiosity, I push the white one, and a tree further in the distance opens up. I close the rock and go to the tree. Inside the fake tree I see a book. It's burgundy, with metal at the corners and in the middle is a metal diamond shape with a F and a 3 engraved in the middle.

        I look through the pages and find informative notes on all sorts of strange creatures in the small town of Gravity Rises. I plop it in my tan colored jacket and finish hanging the signs. When I get back, Dipper hops inside all smiley. "What has you happier then usual?" I ask. "I've got a girlfriend!" He says triumphantly. I smile. "Good job bro." I say and he sits on the couch by me. "She's great!" He exclaims and I chuckle. "I met her in the woods! She's really pretty!" He goes on and on about this mystery girl and I listen while reading the book I found. "And she has the most amazing... HAY! What's that?!" He points to the page about gnomes. I smile. "It's a journal of some sort, I found it in the woods. It has information about all sorts of strange and mythical creatures!" I say happily.

       "That sounds neat!" Dipper says merrily. I smile even bigger. "I know right?!" I exclaim and we hear foot steps. On instinct I hide the book in my jacket. Gruncle Fids walks in. "How y'all doin?" He asks as he walks through the front door and back to his room. "Good!" Me and Dipper say in unison as we watch him walk by. "Well, either way! She's coming over latter and I can't wait for you to meat her!" Dipper exclaims happily and I smile softly. "Neither can I." I say in return.

       Latter on I hear a knock at the door and Dipper hollers. "I'LL GET IT!" I then see him running to the door with a giant grin. Must be his new girlfriend. "Hay!" I hear him say. "Hello, Dipper" I hear a female voice. Gruncle fids enters the room in nothing but a gray males tank and loose looking black boxers. Dipper brings in his new girl. "Everyone, meet..." He trails off. "Regu-Regina" She says. I could have sworn she almost said 'Regular'. "Regina, meet my younger twin sis, Mabel." He says and points to me. I smile and wave. "And my great uncle, Fiddletown, but I call him Gruncle Fids!" Dipper explains as he points at Fiddletown. "Well, we're off on our date he exclaims and drags Regina out the door. I head up to our room and read the journal on my bed.

        A couple hours latter I find a page about vampire-zombies and gasp, the picture looks just like Regina! Dipper skips in just as the book falls from my hands and hits the floor. I grab it up and stick it in my twins face. "Dipper! Look!" I say and open it up randomly, thinking its on the vampire-zombie page. "Nature Elves?" He asks and I look at the page then give a frustrated sigh. "NO! This!" I say and turn to the right page. "Vampire-Zombies?" He asks then I point to the image. "Hay! That looks like Regina! He says with a smile. I do a face palm at my twins denseness when he gets up on his bunk that's covered in stickers. He rolls over and goes to bed, as do I.

         The next day just before he leaves on another date with Regina I plead with him to at least be carful, just in case. "Alight! Yeesh! But just know, your flipping paranoid!" He shouts at me when a knock is heard down stairs. "Now I've got a date!" He yells and slams the door shut. His shirt to day is a dark red-orange with dark blue at the end of the sleeves, collar and hem of the shirt. There is also a dark blue pine tree in the middle and lighter red-orange wool knitted sleeves extending out from under. He runs out of the room for his date with Regina and I flip back on my bed with a sigh.

        I sit there for an hour, just thinking. "Is it so wrong to worry about my easily trusting twin?!" I yell out to no one in particular as Melanie walks in and changes a light bulb. "Well, it's OK to worry, your his twin after all, so if he's to trusting, and your to untrusting, then it's your job to make sure he doesn't trust the wrong people, and his job make sure you trust the right people. You two have to look out for each other, but don't step on his toes either. If she turns out to be what you think, then you need to be there for him, but if he's right, then just be happy that he's happy." She explains. "Do you believe in the supernatural?" I ask her and she nods. "I've seen all kinds of crazy stuff all over this town girl!" She exclaims. I nod.

       After my talk with Anie, I run outside and grab a go-cart then drive off to the woods when I notice the time. It's 7:30PM, they left at 8:30AM and said they'd be back at 10:00AM! I drive about trying to find them...

~Dipper's POV at 9:30AM~

       Regina takes me to a small clearing in the woods. "I.... I have something to tell you..." She says with her head hung. "What is it?" I ask and she smiles at me. "I... I'm not..... I'm not human...." She explains and I'm like WHOO! She turns around and shrugs off her hooded trench coat to reveal..... Nature elves?! Just one of the little females is the size of a kitten! The one on top, the only one that doesn't have green hair, but white instead, walks up to me. "I know it's weird, but We're trying to find a new king! And we think your just what we're lookin for!" She says and I scratch the back of my head. "Well, you see.... I'm like a human.... sooo...." I get cut off. "Please? wont you marry me and become my nature elf king?" She asks with pleading eyes. "But.... I'm like only 12 and ....though your vary pretty... I kind of want to be with another human any ways.... so like... yeah...." I say awkwardly. "Oh, well I guess we'll have to kidnap you now." She says then snaps her fingers. "Girls? Get 'em!" She shouts and they pounce on me. "AHHHHHH!!!!!!!" I scream!

~Back with Mabel in the present

        I race the cart through the woods and end up in front of  a cave where I hear Dipper calling out for help. I run inside to find a hidden valley on the other side and Dipper tied up by.... Nature Elves? I run over and start kicking the little nuisances then untie my twin. We then each pick up a big stick and start hitting them away as we run to the cart.

       Once in the cart we drive away and I look back just long enough to see the leader elf with white hair summon a giant rock monster! We drive until we go off a cliff and Dipper's pine tree hat flies off before we go through the Gravity Rises welcome sign! We drive until we reach the Shack and get out of the busted up cart.

      I grab my book and flip until I find the page about them and read that they have no weaknesses?! I put the journal back in my jacket and look to Dipper who is just as panicked as me. The rock giant reaches us with the leader on it's shoulder and Dipper steps forward. "WAIT!" He calls out and I grab his sleeve. "Dipper! wait! What are you doing?!" I ask and he smiles at me. "Don't worry May-May, I've got a plan!" He says and looks forward as she comes forward. "Yes sweetie?" She asks him. "I'll marry you." He says and she comes forward. "YES!" She says and comes over to us with some rope. He bends down. "Do you want to kiss your future husband?" He asks and she grins. "Why yes!" She exclaims with a smile. She closes her eyes to kiss him and he smirks. He grabs the rope and ties her up then throws her in a close by empty bird cage after grabbing a glowing gem from her and the giant crumbles. He brakes the gem under his foot. "Now leave me and my sister alone!" He says looking pissed then lets her go. She runs off to the woods and we smile to each other. "Awkward Sibling Hug?" He asks and I smile. "Awkward sibling hug." I say and he hug then pat each others back saying "Pat Pat" Then pull back with a laugh. Gruncle Fids comes out of the gift shop. "Hay kids! Come in here a sec!" He says and we walk in. "What's up grunk?" Dipper asks and I nod. "Pick one thing, each of you, from the shop, it's free." He explains and Dipper starts searching though the items. "What's the catch?" I ask and he just looks at me. "The catch is to pick something before I change my mind." He says.

       I look through until I find a locket. It's silver and in the shape of an oval. It has the picture of the Shack on the front and I smile. I have two small pictures just the right size to fit in it. Dipper picks out a cap that's an ugly mustard yellow and has a star in the middle. We take our things to our room and lay in bed. "Goodnight Sissy." He says and I grin. "Goodnight Bubby." I say and go to bed.
