Bright florescent lights lit up the University's gymnasium. Today was the day of the annual science fair at West Coast Tech. Sudents, professors and many of the nation's best scientists attended to scout new recruits to join them.

Near the front of the room a girl stood tinkering with a machine she had made three months prior. She brought out a red screwdriver from her tool box and quickly finished it. A whirring mechanical sound started up her machine. It was a metal helmet with bright blue buttons on it and long chords coming out that connected to a computer.

The girl stood up and brought out a handkerchief from her white lab coat. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and put the handkerchief back. She sighed in releif and dusted off her eggplant colored skirt. The top five scientists in the nation and her professor approached her.

"Cristina, are you ready for your presentation?" Cristina looked to her invention with skeptic eyes. She pulled on her violet turtleneck and smiled. With small nervous steps she walked over to her professor. The five scientists stared at her and began to write things down on their clipboards.

"Yes I'm ready." The professor picked up his microphone and turned it on. He tapped on the tip. This made pounding sounds come out of the speakers that stood near the stage of the gym. Cristina walked over to the table as her professor began to introduce her.

"Hello excuse me. Everyone? My name is professor Crosby of West Coast Technology. As you all know, today is the annual science fair of 2013!" The crowd clapped causing Cristina to smile. "I'm excited as well! This year I have convinced one of my students to enter the competition with her head high and her heart strong! You may know her as the student with the best gpa at this university. I'm talking of course about Cristina!"

Cristina smilled big. Her chipped tooth showing. She gave an awkward wave as the croud clapped and cheered for her. The attention was then directed back to her professor. Her professor, talking, began to walk closer to his student.

"I'm sure she will do well in this fair, winning over your affections with her ingenious invention. Now here she is, Cristina presenting her latest creation!" The crowd of students, scientists and observers began to clap once more for the professors powerful introduction. "You're gonna do great, kid."

She nodded at him while he handed her his microphones. Cristina walked behind the table, her knees were shaking. This day couldn't come sooner. The day she would show the world her genius and become a famous scientist helping to better the world. It had to go perfect, she thought.

Cristina stood behind her invention and waited for the crowd to cease their applause. She brought up two fingers to her glasses and adjusted them at the side. She anxiously looked down at her black flats and saw she was standing in a pigeon toed position. She straightened her back out and looked up to the audience with a determined glare.

"H-hello, today I will be talking about...uhh..." she pulled out her notecards from her pocket and read the title. "Inherited mental disorders. Studies done by Etkin have shown that mental illness is a result of lack of gray matter in the brain. This gray matter is the tissue around the brain that contains the body of nerve cells in three different regions deep inside the brain."

Cristina walked over to a board becoming more calm as she began to ramble on. She presented the board to the crowd showing them a top and side veiw of the brain.

"These regions of the brain are known as The dorsal anteruor cingulate cortex or the DACC, and the right and left insula. These are known as the executive functions, and knowing where these neuron cells are in the brain, it will be easier to pinpoint what mental disorder you or the patient may have specifically."

"So...gathering up all this information, I have devised a simple situation to curing the worlds most common mental disorders such as obsessive compulsive disorder, schizophrenia, addiction, depression, and even anxiety!" Cristina said with more energy. The croud clapped at her findings. The scientists wrote things down on their clipboards.

"This machine will help just about anyone with a genetic mental disorder with a push of a button. So do I have any volunteers?" A mother holding her son's hand walked up to Cristina.

"I'm so glad I decided to come to this thing. I was desperate. I thought their would be no chance for my son but...I heard about this science fair and thought that I might come across a really smart scientist who could help cure my son. You see...he has dissociative identity disorder. I know you didn't say it but..do you think you could help him?"

"Of course Miss, I've worked forever on this project. I have gone though intense studying to make sure that it is completely and utterly safe. It can never flaw in anyway." The mother smiled hopefully. Cristina gently grabbed the boys hand and sat him down in a chair. "Now all I need you to do is sit there while I strap this to your head."

As she put the helmet on him the crowd watched in awe waiting for history to happen. Cristina buckled up the straps so that the machine would not fall off of his head. She gave a small breath indicating that she was still a bit nervous. The boy looked up at the machine.

"Let's do this.." Cristina said in a determined voice. She went to the computer and began to press many number buttons on the keyboard. She flipped three switched on the side of it and quickly went to the helmet peice of the machine, pressed two buttons and finally flipped a switch on the side of the computer.

The computer began to make a whirring mechanical noise. An x-ray of the child's brain was displayed on the computer. Cristina smiled widley. The small light beeps came from the speakers of the computer, which was to be expected. The brain on the computer spun around horizontally showing all sides of it.

"It's-it's working! It's working!" She began to let out shocked laughter. "Yes! Yes!" She raised her fists in the air and turned to the audience. Just as she did that the computer began to let out strange robotic sounding noises. "What?!" She widened her eyes and ran over to her computer. The faces in the crowd became worried along with the mothers.

Cristina began to type on her computer quickly trying to locate the mistake. A look of horror went over her face. The mother rushed along side her.

"What is going on?! Is their something wrong!? Is this supposed to be happening?!" Cristina turned to the mother with her hands clutching her short wavey hair.

"I don't know! I don't know what's going on!" The little boy began to scream being shocked by the invention. The mother ran over to her son calling out his name. Cristina watched on in fear, her heart began to pound loudly in her ears. Her arms and legs began to shake. She pressed more buttons on her computer furiously.

The mechanical ruckus slowly came to a stop. The bright blue lights that came from the helmet dimmed and went back to their natural color. The mother took the helmet off of his head and held her child closley. The child shivered in her arms murmuring small words, his eyes wide as saucers.

"My dear sweet baby!" She yelled pressing the child against her chest. The child suddenly let out a blood curdling scream. Tears quickly fell from his eyes and dripped down his face. His heart, along with Cristina's began to pump faster and faster, almost bursting out of their chests. A pain went to both of their heads.

"Mommy! I see...I see demons! Save me from them mommy! It's really dark and cold! I...I want to go home!" The child screamed louder making everyone gasp in astonishment. The mother with tears soaking her face, turned to Cristina. She stood there looking at her invention as if it was a curse. Instead of helping the disorder, it made it worse and gave him an even worse one than before.

"What did you do to my son!"

"I-I-I don't understand what went wrong! I did everything cor-correctly. This shouldn't-should not have happened. It was an accident! I swear!" Cristina turned to the audience with big teary red eyes. She wiped her eyes. "I didn't mean to honestly.."

"I try to help my son, the one person most important in my life and you go and do this! I thought you were smart!"

"I am-"

"She's nothing but a loser!" A male voice said from the croud. She wanted to speak out and say 'I'm not a loser, I'm a winner!' But she could not find the courage to do that after what she had done. "Look at her crying like that!" A girl said pointed at her angrily. "Look what you have done!" "This machine is a MONSTROSITY, and so are YOU!"

The last person who had spoke lowered their voice to a deep demonic one. She looked at the person and then at the rest of the crowd members. She stared at the mother of the boy and then at the scientists. Cristina began to sob, her bown hair dropping at the sides of her face.

"No...no..no...I-" Cristina stuttered, her body shaking. Her eyes became bigger as she began to act much more nervously. "I'M-I'M SO SORRY! I DIDN'T KNOW! I'M SORRY!" Cristina yelled loudly with her hands on her chest. "I didn't mean to..." she said with a weak soft voice. She closed her eyes and let the tears flow down her cheeks.

The room instantly grew silent. The sounds of Cristina's heart where replaced with loud misinterpreted whispers. She looked around to see none of the people speaking to her. They were still all angry. The whispers murged making Cristina's head spin. They could clearly make out the words 'gravity falls'.

Out of no where, everyone looked up and screamed in many different voices. This caused Cristina to stare at them shocked. She looked frantically at all of them. The lights above her began to shatter raining down sharp shards of glass. Cristina tripped while trying to run. She rolled under the table to keep herself from getting hurt.

Deep laughter began to fill the room which then became quick, high pitched, throat sounding laughter. She peeked her head outside of the table to see all of the students, professors, and scientists laying on the ground with disassembled body parts. Her jaw dropped in shock, she screamed.

Just then the table was lifted up from her and thrown off behind her into the darkness. She turned her head from the table to the person..or thing who was using telekinesis to control it. She adjusted her glasses shaking and observing the triangular shaped creature. He continued to laugh expressing joy with his one eye.

Cristina let out a high pitched scream and opened her eyes finding herself to be in the forest. She looked around holding her chest as it heaved up and down. She panted, sweat and tears trickled down her face. Her body shook as she tried to comprehend what she had just saw. It happend again, the dream with the triangle being.

She quickly grabbed her journal and pen to keep her log going. She speedily wrote down words on a page that said. 'Again, I had the dream again. It was different, this time I went to a university and was about to introduce an invention of mine. Everything went wrong. It did not turn out the way I thought. And I saw him again...the mysterious triangular terrestrial.'

Cristina thought about him for a moment. She has been having these dreams about him for weeks now. Each time she closes her eyes all she can see is bill. He's haunted her nightmares, and she's determined to find out why. This is the exact reason Cristina is headed to gravity falls..to figure out what this is about...what these dreams mean.

"What is so important about gravity falls? Why do I keep having dreams like this? Well...I suppose that answer will come in time." She looked up to the stars. The sky was a dark blue color. She began to recognize the constellations. One of her favorites was the little dipper. She narrowed her eyes and blinked. "I'll find out soon.."
