Chapter 5) I Am The Box Ghost
~Danny~
The next few days had been... Well, normal. I looked for Vlad all over town. No news stories about him being there or any signs of him. Dipper stopped asking questions about Vlad and Maple seems to be less interested in her girlfriends and more in me!
Sam is finally coming! It feels like forever since the last time I saw her! She's one of my best friends! I have no clue what to expect. Will the twins and her get along? Maple might be too happy for Sam, while Dipper might be... I don't know.
I called her again this morning, she told me she'll meet my after babysitting at the condo. My parents rented it until two days before school starts. Even though, I have no clue where they got the extra money from to rent it.
When in I stepped into the Mystery shack, a blue mist came out of my mouth and I shivered a little bit (in other words my ghost sense went off). Suddenly, I went into a fighting position. My fists were clenched and I was looking around for any sign of a ghost. I was about to go ghost when...
"Hi, Danny! Why do you look so stressed?" I turned around to find Mable staring at me worriedly.
I shook my head, trying to clear my mind. "Nothing, Mable . What do you want to do today?" I tried asking in a clam voice.
She shrugged and said "I don't know, let's ask Dipper."
Then out of nowhere, the Box Ghost appeared and screamed "Beware! I'm the Box Ghost!"
I rolled my eyes. Oh, great him. Again. "Um... Mable how about you get Dipper he'll want to see this. " I hope I can get the box ghost away in the Fenton Thermos before the twins came down.
I saw Mable ran up the stairs to get Dipper. Once she was up the stairs I went Ghost.
"Seriously! You can't give me a vacation!" I said with annoyance.
"I am the Box Ghost! Fear me!" He screamed for the hundredth time this year. I was about to pull out the Thermos when...
"Who are you?" Dipper shouted from the top of the stairway.
"I am the Box Ghost!" He screamed. Again. I slapped my face. I am so sick of him saying that!
~Dipper~
I thought Mable was joking when she said there was a ghost in the gift shop. I'm still a little shaken up every time I hear the word 'ghost' because of the little convenience store mishap and the Northwest mansion. I find myself staring at the ghost we saw in the woods and another who was wearing farmer type clothes. So I ask the first thing that pops into mind, "Who are you?"
"I am the Box Ghost!" The farmer like ghosts screams. The other ghost seems to be really annoyed by the Box Ghost. The other ghost was the one we saw in the woods. Why was he here?
The woods ghost rolls his eyes and brings a... thermos out? Suddenly, a beam of blue light comes out of the thermos and hits the Box Ghost. In a blink both of the ghosts are gone.
In a minute, Danny comes out of the back with a frying pan. "Um... Why do you have the frying pan?" Mable asked laughing.
"Where were you?" I asked suspiciously.
Danny seemed to pale a little bit. "Um.. I saw the um.. Ghosts and got the frying pan to... Beat up the ghosts?" He said unsure.
Mable laughed as if it was a normal mistake. "Oh silly goose! You can't beat up a ghost with a frying pan!" Danny seemed to do a nervous laugh with her.
"How about we look around town for more signs of ghosts?" I tried to ask normally.
"Sure? I guess, what do you think? Danny?" Mable asked. Mable has been boy craziness over him only seems to get worse. She asks him of his thoughts, feelings and memories every minute of everyday. I always feel like he's hiding something from us. Like he doesn't want us to know something really important. Danny was about to answer when....
Bang! The door to the secret lab (a.k.a the vending machine) bursts open! Revealing Uncle Ford wrestling a giant spider. It was at least the size of his arm. After a minute of punching the thing, Uncle Ford took a tool that looked like a giant taser. I can't even describe what the tool did the animal. Soon it was just a pile of dust.
Then everyone went quite. After a couple of seconds, Danny finally spoke up. "Um... Who are you?"
At first it looked like Uncle Ford was scared of Danny then he said, "I was about ask you the same question. Plus, why are you here?"
Danny's eyes narrowed. "I asked you first,"he said immaturely.
"I'm Mr. Pines," Uncle Ford replied. "Now answer my questions."
"I'm Danny. I'm the twin's new babysitter." Danny said too calmly.
"Um... How much do you see?"
All of us were quite for a moment until Danny said, "It depends on how much you wanted us to see."
"Nothing."
"Then I guess nothing."
"Okay then I got to go." Uncle Ford started to walk way.
I wanted to stop Uncle Ford and beg to go down with him, but I knew it was no use. He would never allow me to come with him. Plus, Danny shouldn't get involved in this Gravity Falls craziness.
"Um... I saw a signs on the way here that there was a lake. Do you guys want to go there?" Danny asked.
"Sure. We need to get a our minds off of the Gravity Falls' weirdness. Plus it's a beautiful day outside!" Mable burst out. I wanted to remind her that there were just as much Gravity Falls weirdness over there, but she seemed to have her heart set on it.
Plus, I wanted to keep a close eye on Danny. I feel like he's hiding something from us and I'm going to find out what it is.
