"Welcome, readers. As most of you may know by now, the series we all know and love known as "Gravity Falls" is coming to an end. Yes, in less than a month the final one hour-long episode is about to air and then shut down the entire series. We've all seen how our heroes, Dipper and Mabel have evolved through the series, earned friendships, fought reality and deepened their bonds with almost everyone around them. But this fanfic isn't about them. Let start with a question most of you probably think you know: Do you know the difference between Good and Evil?"

"-Whatever answer you might've formed in your brain, discard it immediately, for there is no such thing as good and evil to begin with. In this world we live in, more than five MILLION species struggle and even fight against each other for survival. Even there you can say that morality is bullshit to 99.9999999% of them, but that's not all. In this world, where survival is everything- Whether it is survival of our lives or survival of ours ideals- Every human has something he won't give up on, an ideology, a code of being, and they're so divergent, that it sometimes brings forth war itself. You can't say that someone who fights for what he believes is evil, even if his motives and means are morally questionable. And of course, there's the undeniable truth that everyone possesses this so called good and evil qualities, no matter in what balance or portions, so can you really say that something that does not exist as whole is real? But now I'm derailing too much, let's talk about the people who not so long ago were considered the "villains" of Gravity Falls."

"Oh yes, everyone knows the trio of people who were considered the biggest jerks in the series until not too long ago: Gideon Gleeful, Robbie S. Valentino and Pacifica Northwest" the hooded person lifted his hand upwards and from it, three glowing spheres with the smug faces of Gideon Robbie and Pacifica emerged, showing flashes of all their dishonorable acts "This are the three people that not too long ago you wouldn't mind in the least bit sacrificing their lives in exchange of the Pines', but what do we know about them? We've learnt that Gideon had issues and got obsessed with Mabel, but still truly liked her, we learned that Robbie was just a sad and lonely at heart sociopath who was just truly desperate for human warmth and we've even learned that Pacifica's parents always tried to drive her into perfection, were corrupt, cold and abusive- Her father used freaking Pavlobian methods to keep her in check, for fuck's sake."

"But is that truly it? Is that all there is to know about their lives and the destiny that drove them into becoming these horrible people? The historians and story tellers always choose to discard what they don't consider important, stories that don't involve the heroes too much and can be thrown aside without affecting the main plot at all. Stories like these disappear without a trace and sink into the darkness of history without anyone ever knowing any backstory besides the one of the hero they so heartedly adore… These, are their untold stories".

Chapter one- The hell of a demon child

Ten years ago

It was a freakishly powerful stormy weather. Inside the Gleeful house, a desperate, young Bud Gleeful was running around in circles with a house phone on his right arm and a baby-wipe on his left arm, threatening to cut the wire as he swung wildly across the guest room. "What do you mean, there are no ambulances available? A lightning hit them all!? But my wife is about to give birth any minute now! Is there really nothing you can do?" the only answer he got was the sound of a lightning in the distance, hitting the phone station and cutting his connection to the hospital, leaving him with a pale face and the static sound on the phone which he then dropped to the floor as he heard a scream.

Bud rushed towards the bedroom to find a beautiful young woman with silky long black hair with a swollen pregnant body sweating and agonizing in pain "He's coming!" screamed Mrs. Gleeful "Ho, shit, holy shit, holy shit!" panicked Bud as he approached his wife and was preparing to give birth to his son, praying that everything he saw in his friend's kid birth tapes will help him in not killing him.

After a minute or two of screams, shaking and tears (all three mostly by Bud), Mrs. Gleeful finally held her newborn baby in her arms, overcomed with joy. "He's beautiful…" she said while passing her delicate, soft hand through his thin hair. Unfortunately for the Gleeful family, this joy didn't last long. A lightning stroke the antenna on the roof of their house, cutting the electricity of the house. The pyramid-shaped aromatic candles Bud spread and lit across the room began to burst in large, blue flames. The windows opened with a bang as wind blew in strongly and tripped Bud out of balance and into the floor. Blood began to spill from the walls as Mrs. Gleeful held her son tightly in her arms and coincidentally looked into his eyes, which were shifting colors between blue and yellow. Like Quicksand, his eyes sucked her in, showing her visions: visions of destruction, visions of shadows, visions of the very end of world, in which her son took part of as one of the horsemen of the apocalypse, serving under a creature beyond darkness.

The storm stopped. Bud then stood up and looked at his wife, which looked paler than anything he's ever seen before "Honey! Gideon!" he went to her and then looked at the baby "Oh, thank goodness, he's safe… Honey? Are you ok? Honey!?" but Mrs. Gleeful only looked at him with black, hollow eyes. She was never the same again.

Two years ago

Gideon's childhood wasn't a normal childhood. As a matter of fact, it was horrible: all the kids always laughed about him and his weird hairstyle. He liked his hairstyle, his father always supported him and his mother didn't seem to care, so why no one else liked it? But it wasn't just a matter of fashion taste; he was also bullied. A lot. Every day after school kids would punch him, tear his clothes apart and throw him into the trash can. Older kids like Robbie would wrap him in a mattress and throw him into the lake and girls like Pacifica would make fun of him and write fashion articles in which he was considered 'A major disaster in Gravity Falls and most likely, the world'. But despite all that, there was one thing that hurt him and intrigued him most of all, a single question that left him awake at nights and haunted his nightmares at days: Why was his mother so afraid of him?

Yes, it sounded ridiculous to Gideon when he first learned what fear is, but the more he thought about it and tried to approach his mom, who constantly ran away screaming, the more he was convinced of it. Even if the entire world was against him, if only his mom was there for him he would be happy, but considering she was the one who disliked him the most, he was one of the most miserable kids in the world. One day, he decided to confront her.

He locked all the doors, including the doors to the rooms and attic, waiting behind the main door for his mom to come in from shopping. When she opened the door, he slammed it behind her and locked it as well. Seeing the angry face of her son, Mrs. Gleeful panicked and run towards the kitchen, trying without avail to open the back door "Don't even try! I locked the entire house, mom" said Gideon holding the key strand with the keys to all the doors in the house "W-what do you want!? Get away… GET AWAY!" she said as she attached her back to the door and began to slide down "Why are you so afraid of me!?" asked Gideon, who was getting really mad from watching his own mom cowering in fear in front of her eight year-old son. Mrs. Gleeful seemed like she was about to faint. She hid her face in her hands and moved forward and backwards, as if trying to pretend this is but a dream. Gideon snapped removed both her hands with a backhand slap "WHY?! WHY ARE YOU SO AFRAID OF ME? WHAT HAVE I DONE TO YOU? TELL ME! MOM!" Mrs. Gleeful looked at her son firmly for the first time since he was born, but the look on her eyes was colder than ice "You want to know why..? Because you're a monster, no, a demon! You'll bring forth the end of the world! Dissapear, go away from me forever!" she said standing up and pointing an accusing thumb at her son.

At that point, something inside Gideon broke.

A tearful eight year-old began to run away from the house, running further and further away, as fast as his legs could carry him. He ran like a drunk person, without the slightest care or thought about where to run to… Just run. Without him realizing, he found himself wondering inside a church and falling down through a pit and into a mine. When he came to, he was standing in the middle of what seemed like a sap, prehistoric dinosaur graveyard. Something in the back of his head itched, maybe a memory, maybe a De ja Vu, whatever it was, it felt familiar to him. He began wandering around the sap museum and staring with awe at the dinosaurs he learned about in kindergarten, tripping into a frozen Pterodactyl and fracturing his sap grave, unbeknown to Gideon.

Then, he saw it: a book standing on a stand beyond what seemed like a lava river. Way too curious for comfort, Gideon risked his life to reach and read what turned out to the journal of someone who seemed to investigate all sorts of paranormal stuff in town. He flipped through the pages until he spotted something that caught his interest. A devilish smile began to spread across Gideon's face.

The door slammed open, scaring Bud Gleeful nearly to death "Son!" he called "I was so worried about you! Where were-AAAGH" his tearful reunion was cut short as he was thrown away by Gideon, who was wearing a glowing jade amulet on a bolo tie. His mom cowered in fear and dropped to the ground in front of her. A surge of something Gideon later learned was satisfaction came all over him. Overwhelmed with joy, he stared at his parents floating in the air "Things are about to change from now on" he stated with pleasure. Power, what a wonderful thing it was to have it, and with the journals' guides, he'll achieve more power than anyone ever had, power so great that everyone will bow down before him and respect him, everyone will fear him and he'll own the world and everything in it!

"At least, that's what he thought"

13 days ago

Gideon became used to life in prison, but it didn't mean he liked it. After learning what falling in love is and watching it and everything else taken from him, he swore that he'll take revenge on the Pines as soon as he escapes out of prison. If only it was as easy as in the movies… He tried everything, but the dumb cops were just too lucky to always capture him by chance. Eventually he gave up. "That's your ex?" asked him Max, one of the prisoners, as he looked at the torn newspaper post of Gideon and Mabel in Gideon's hands "Yeah, my sweet little angel… One day she'll be mine, I'll get her and never let her run away from me. She'll slowly learn to love me and become mine forever" he said with a dreamy look on his face "It doesn't seem to me like she's very fond of you" said Max, laying back on his bed next to Gideon's "You should quit trying to get her and move on"

"Oh, yeah? And what do you know?" asked Gideon, throwing an apple to his face, which he caught and ate, much to his dismay "Trust me, I know. I used to love someone, her name was Jane, my one true love, and you can't begin to understand how happy I was when we got married. Problem is, not all love stories have a happy ending. I was selfish, jealous and possessive over her. always stalking her when she went out with her friends and always yelling at her when I was in a bad mood. She divorced from me and ran away with another man. I was seriously drunk at that time, so I took a knife and… Well, the rest is on my files. When I was clear of mind and looked at the blood of my wife on my hands I was crushed. I learned the hard way that the more you like someone, the more you'll try to keep them all to yourself and the more painful to let them go. I was the biggest mistake of her life, she deserved way better than me…" he said, looking at the ceiling with depressed eyes. Gideon turned his back on him and ignored him, but his mind wandered about it all night long. Eventually, he decided that he didn't care at all, he wasn't going to make the same mistake as Max and she'll love him and no matter at what cost- Even if he had to sell his very soul to a certain dream demon.

Yesterday

"Look inside, Gideon. If all this is for Mabel, then ask yourself what Mabel would want you to do". Dipper's words stung what remained of Gideon's heart like needless sprayed with pepper and lemon juice. Gideon took out the newspaper post and looked at it deeply, as if seeing Mabel's uncomfortable look on her face for the very first time. Dipper was right, she didn't like him, and Max's words echoed throughout his brain. He realized for the very first time what his real goal was and boy was he ready to sacrifice everything to accomplish it.

"Dipper, will you tell her what I did?"

"Of course"

"I hope you're right about this" he said, crippling the paper and shoving it into his jacket "Guys, new plan! Bill's minions are gonna be on us in seconds, but I'm not gonna let that dumb triangle be the warden o' me! Ya'll ready for a good ole fashioned prison brawl?"

Ghosteyes and the rest of his prison crew cheered for him. Seeing how he actually made friends for the first time in his life, Gideon felt a weird warmth in his heart. "Discount Automart Warriors, roll out!" he cried as his crew charged in the direction of the floating eyeball monsters' swarm.

They all fought intensely, but their numbers were overwhelming. And as if that wasn't enough, Bill's friends joined the party. Gideon witnessed hell as the last one of his subordinates/BFF Ghosteyes, was frozen and taken away. Pacifier towered on top of the beaten Gideon and chained him up.

The next day he was brought in front of Bill "Well, well, if it isn't .you." said a furious Bill, turning red in front of the traitor, but relaxing soon after and sitting on his throne of human agony, on which Gideon recognized the faces of none other than his parents "MOM! DAD!" yelled Gideon. No response. "I'm not gonna lie, I'm seriously impressed, kiddo. It takes quite a lot of guts to backstab a being that can be considered omnipotent. But seriously now, that was a bad move. I hope you enjoy watching as I cast Mabel into a pool of acid, revive her, and then eliminate her of existence" said Bill "What!? You can't do that! We a deal!"

"A deal you BROKE!" snapped Bill, as a storm of thunder came over the fearamyd. "Oh, but don't worry, in order to make her suffering even bigger, I'll kill all of her family members first in front of her. And you wanna know the best part?" he said as he and his voice changed into an exact replica of Gideon "She'll think YOU did that!" Bigeon laughed maniacally as he walked away, leaving Gideon to close his eyes and bow his head with shame.

The screen shrunk back into a yellow orb that was now spinning on the hooded person's hand along with the other two. "What a sad redemption story, let's just hope that it ends well. The next story will be about the secret of the one bearing the stitched heart, the fight between two men for freedom and the true identity of the man we all know as Robbie Stacey Valentino" the orbs stopped and an orb with the face of Robbie floated up and took over the entire screen.
