First Meeting

Mabel's POV

It was a rainy day at gravity falls. Dipper was playing 'Dungeons, Dungeons and more Dungeons' with uncle Ford, Grunkle Stan was watching something on TV, Wendy and Soos had a day off, and I was bored out of my mind. I tried to phone Candy and Grenda, but both of them had gone off somewhere, and won't be here for at least a week. I sat in my room, reading 'Hot Talk' for like a 100th time, when than super crazy idea popped into my head. 'Let's explore Grunkle's Shop a little. I still got some pocket money, and maybe I could buy something with it.' So I went downstairs and slowly walked to the door which led to the shop. Fortunately Grunkle Stan was sleeping, so he didn't notice me.

Shop was quite small, but was full of many interesting things. There were ordinary things like snow domes, hats, pens and many more. However there are some crazy things in there like grappling hook I received on the first day of summer. Sometimes we are forced to work in there, but I like it. I was looking at shelves and in boxes, but nothing in particular interested me. I was just going to give up, but something caught my eye. It was a little box on one of the selves and for some unknown reasons it was hidden. It had an image of ladybug on the top of the lid. When I opened it there were 2 earrings – both of them were red with 5 black dots. I felt in love with them, but there was no price. I really didn't want someone else to buy them, so I put 10 bucks near the cash machine, and went out.

I put my earrings right when I came back to my room. Dipper didn't finish playing yet, so I returned to reading.

'So this is what teens are reading now? Oh my.' said a high pitched voice.

'Yes and there is a poster of the 'boyz band' on page 12' I answered, before I realised that no one is in a room.

'Who was that?' I asked carefully

'Me' answered tiny voice

'Who's me?' I asked again

Then a small red creature appeared before me

'I'm me' it said

Creature had big head with a black dot on the forehead. Its eyes were big, purple and cute. It had two red antennas. Overall it was quite small. I was surprised to see that creature so I did the most appropriate thing to do.

'Don't eat me!' I shouted, hiding behind my magazine

'I'm not going to eat you silly' creature said, amused

I lowered my magazine, but I was still on my guards

'So who are you, and where did you come from?' I asked with suspicion

'I'm Tikki, and I came from those earrings' creature (Tikki) answered 'And you? And where are we?'

'I'm Mabel Pines, and we are in Gravity Falls'

'Oh! I've never been to such place before' She answered cheerfully

'So… what exactly are you and why were you in my earrings?' I asked

'I'm kwami, and your earrings are Ladybug Miraculous which I'm connected to.' She answered

'So what are those miraculouses?' I asked, more and more curious about that little creature and my new earrings.

'Miraculouses are… do you have something to eat? I'm starving' Tikki said unexpectedly

'Yes, I have some cookies' I answered

'Can I have one please?' Tikki asked

'Sure.' I said giving her one

Then she started to explain while eating.

'Miraculouses are magical jewels, often worn as jewellery. With help of kwami they can change person that wears them into a super-powered being based on an animal. You have Ladybug Miraculous, which means, that with my help you can change into a superhero. Ladybug has the power of good luck, and she can change bad Akumas into good butterflies.'

'Wow, wow, turning into superhero.' I said confused 'and fighting evil akumas.'

'I know it's confusing at first, but later you'll get a hold of it' Tikki assured

'So wait, with your help I can become a superhero?' I asked

'Yes, but when you'll change, you'll have a limited time before turning back' Tikki said

'So cool…' I said

'Oh! Someone is coming. I have to hide' Tikki suddenly said, nervous

'Can't you hide in earrings?' I asked

'No, because if I do I would transform you' She said

'Ok you can hide in my sweater' I said

Tikki just nodded her head, and flew into my sweater

'Superhero, huh?' I thought 'So cool!'
