HI Guys I saw this idea on Reddit and I thought It was pretty cool - So here it is I hope you like it! Please tell me if you do so I can continue with this story. Also the characters may be a little OOC (cause i'm kinda crap at writing cannon characters I know I'm trash D:) Anyway overall I think it's cool so please let me know if you like it! Also I don't own Gravity Falls or Welcome to Night Vale They both belong to their respective creators.

"You know I really hate closing the shack" Grunkle Stan confessed to his niece and nephew, shoving another bag into his car "But if I wanna keep those teen punks from harassing my customers I'm gonna need something big to break them out of their pretentiousness." He grumbled, eyeing two of Wendy's friends leaning up against the totem pole in the yard. A group of pasty legged tourists shied away from them.

"Look at that they're wearing all black!"

"What delinquency are they planning!?"

They squawked anxiously at the two hoodlums. The teens on the other hand just leaned against the pole, one of them loudly chewing gum, and the other shook their hair into their eyes and put on some music.

The crowd gasped.

"What did I say earlier- the standing around and annoying me fee is 20 bucks!" Grunkle Stan yelled at the two.

"Why don't you shut up Grandpa?" one of them retorted

"Wear another color, punk! And get off my lawn!" Grunkle Stan shot back.

"Yeah, Black washes you out- you look like a ghost!" Mabel called from her seat in the car.

"Mabel-" Dipper demurred, But Grunkle Stan interrupted : "Yeah, a ghost haunting my business, now get lost before I exorsise ya!"

"Heyo!" Mabel jeered, shooting finger guns at her Grunkle.

The teenagers hissed a groan under their breath before getting in their van and driving off. Dipper sunk down in his seat as they did, making sure they couldn't see him as they drove past. "Grunkle Stan where could we possibly be going to get this big thing?" Dipper questioned from his slouched position. "There are supernatural phonomena every where in Gravity Falls! You should have asked me to bring in something big-I could bring in anything from elves to tween wolf!"

"Again with this?" Stan scoffed "Look Dipper, can you stop with the paranormal nonsense? I'm looking for novelty not crazy kidspiracies." He slammed the back shut and jumped in the front.

"But-" Dipper started to protest but was yet again interrupted- this time by his sister.

"Monster, shmonster I'm ready to road trip it up! C'mon bro bro lets just have fun! When we get back I'll go troll hunting with you!" Mable insisted, elbowing her twin, he rolled his eyes with a small smile "Fine." He conceded.

"But where are we going Grunkle Stan?" Mabel inquired loudly. Stan reached for a piece of paper in the seat beside him, the car swerving a bit. He squinted to read the address before replying: "Some desert town called Night Vale." he clicked his tongue, "It sounds like a dump."

"Wait- desert ?" Dipper piped up "Grunkle Stan where exactly is this town?"

"Uh the desert?"

Dipper shook his head "No, I mean what state?"

Stan shrugged "A dry one- ugh I am gonna get a bad tan line."

"Good thing I brought the sun block!" Mable shrilled, a bottle of sunscreen in her fist "And it smells like cotton candy- here Dipper- smell!" She shouts, popping open the bottle and practically shoving it up his nose, he yelped in surprise and pushed her away, Mabel only laughed in return.

Dipper reached over the passenger seat to grab the map, but what he saw printed on the paper was no map he could make sense of, it was definately not a map of America that was for sure. "What is this?" he muttered under his breath.

"Whatcha lookin' at bro-woah!" Mable exclaimed over Dipper's shoulder, their eyes scanned over the black, almost purple ink that seemed to slither across the leathery page, intricate- almost mandala like designs rolled around over roads and through farms. and right smack in the middle of the creased paper was a town that dully glowed- Night Vale.

"Grunkle Stan have you seen this?" Dipper cried.

"What that map? Yeah I was the one who got Soos pick it up for me- so what?" Stan questioned

"No, But-" Dipper began as his eyes strayed back to the map where upon a second inspection looked perfectly ordinary. "Huh?" He looked back up towards his Sister and Stan who payed him no mind, instead they were busy playing spot the muffin, which Dipper always had to remind them that those "Muffins" were actually explosions tagged by Robby. He sighed and turned to look out the window, at the trees whipping by, and at "Now leaving Gravity Falls" sign.

Suddenly the world around him went black and white and the scenery slowed expodentially until it finally froze.

"Howdy Pine Tree!" A high pitched voice greeted. "You leaving so soon? Summer can't be over yet am I right?"

"Bill! What are you doing here?" Dipper shouted "What do you want?" Bill Cipher twirled his little cane nonchalantly and shrugged his shoulders "Sheesh Kid calm down will ya? I haven't even done anything yet!" he chuckled, floating behind Dipper. "So uh where you guys headed to? Can't be too far with the whole meddling mystery twins thing you guys got going on."

"I don't think that's any of your business." Dipper pointed out, eyes flitting from the map back to the entity. "C'mon Pine Tree throw me a bone I'm just curious."

"Well... okay...we're heading towards this town called Night Vale and-"

"Night Vale?" Bill Cipher muttered

"Yeah, but it's weird- This map doesn't make any sense, it's like some weird talisman or-" Dipper looked up to find the world was moving again and he could hear the off key duet of his sister and Stan. "-Something." he mumbled under his breath. He looked down at the map in his hands again. There was definately something weird about this town, maybe even something sinister to scare Bill away, an uneasy feeling grew in the pit of his stomach.

"Dipper it's your song!" Mabel chided, elbowing him in the side as "Disco Girl" came on the radio, laughing loudly in his ear.

"C'mon, Guys." Dipper grinned, half-heartedly elbowing Mabel back.

"You C'mon Disco girl!" Mabel chuckled. Dipper rolled his eyes. "Take the solo dipping sauce!"

"No" Dipper replied flat out.

"Do it" She insisted "Come on Dipper, do it!"

"Do it! Do it! Do it!" chanted both Stan and Mabel.

Dipper shrugged, well if she and Grunkle Stan could sing along terribly so could he, so he belted out the chorus

After Dipper's somewhat subpar rendition of the song they sat in silence for a moment before they burst out in laughter

"Ah," Stan wiped away a tear "That's good family ridicule."

"Psh Whatever, I've said it before- I don't have to defend Disco Girl, it's in the top 100 for a reason." Dipper remarked.

"Yeah bro we got it." Mabel giggled.

When Their laughs died down Dipper returned his gaze back to the window, his smile faltered, a frown pulled at his lips.

'What is it about Night Vale that made Bill Cipher dissapear?' he pondered 'It can't be more weird than Gravity falls- can it? I mean Gravity Falls is the weirdest town I've ever seen, so weird that the author of the journals wrote about it and kept it hidden.'

'Could there really be a town more unusual and secretive?'

Miles away from the car full of the Pines a radio host sits down at his desk. The room is dark and cool, the air is crisp and fragrant, the equiptment is old but well maintaned. He turns on his microphone and puts on his headphones, the neon sign in the window that reads "On Air" flickers a deep violet. He clears his throat and begins his broadcast:

"Everything you know or ever will know is sand, sand that slowly slips through your hands, out of your hands and to the endless void. There is a breeze that wafts over you that vaguely smells of peppermint and motor oil. This is where we call our beginnings and our endings. Welcome to Night Vale."
