Somewhere in Oregon, there lies a sleepy town known as Gravity Falls. It is a relatively small but friendly town, however, it is one that hides a dark and terrible secret. Despite the friendly and serene appearance of the town, it is in fact crawling with supernatural forces. All of which that the residents of Gravity Falls are completely oblivious to, while some though are aware of and try to keep them at bay while also preventing the residents from discovering the truth behind this town. It was currently nighttime with almost all the residents preparing for bed, when the scene slowly began to pan down to what seems to the be the Gravity Falls Junkyard. The place is surrounded by a wooden fence, and there is a large sign over the entrance that says "Keep Out." The sign has graffiti on it saying "It's a real dump!" It is filled with deposited and discarded cars and other metal materials, which are mostly kept in boxes. There's also a doghouse. It is also the home of an old, deranged hillbilly known as Old Man McGucket who is known as the town's local kook. The old man in question was currently sleeping inside the dog house, and has a bone in his mouth while sleeping in a manner similar to a dog. However, unbeknownst to him, in the deepest parts of the junkyard, there lies another presence that is hiding in the shadows. The scene shifts over to several towers of totaled cars and zooms inside, with sounds of what seems to be electricity buzzing in the air. The buzzing in question was accompanied by brief flashes of light indicating that someone was using a blow torch on an unknown machine. As the scene slowly pans down, reaching the source of the commotion, there showed a figure of some sort hunched over slightly while using the blow torch on some kind of small metal dome with sparks flying out in the process, with what shocking appears to be several glass jars of green fluid that contained human brains inside them. From what could be seen by the silhouette of this person, he seems to be wearing some sort of large cap on his head akin to that of a shower cap, and actually had a blow torch lodged into his right arm, showing that the right arm is actually robotic while his left was normal. Each time this mysterious figure would use the blow torch, the light would briefly show his appearance and it would seem that he has two mechanical eyes, one being red and the other being green. As he was working on the dome, a mouse was crawling towards one of the containers, sniffing it until it was suddenly snatched away by him, "Gerald! How many times have I told you NOT to disturb the brains?" The figure told the mouse angrily with the critter shaking in fright. "This is your last warning. If I catch you near my prized possessions again...consider that tiny cavity inside your tiny noggin as my next operation." He threatened the mouse referring to his brain though oddly calling it a cavity before he tossed Gerald away.
He sighed before deactivating his torch, "Honestly, can't a doctor get some peace and quiet when he's working. I mean...the nerve of some people! Us doctors are always working to save the lives of people! Like removing nasty cavities. But then a certain someone has to crawl in and tell us 'doctor your experiments are quite shiny and pretty!' Bah!" He fumed before inhaling and calming down, "But no matter...because now that I'm done...the next operation can commence! Bahaha!" He laughed maniacally as he lifted the dome up in victory. Next up, he removed a brain from one of the containers, and squeezes it a little, "Hmm. The squishy properties seem to be good." He examined before shaking the brain a little, "Not really all that enduring. But it'll do!" He concluded before placing the brain on a pad, then placed the dome on top of the brain, spinning it rapidly before it was then filled with the same green substance it was contained in the jar, with the substance in question giving off a glow. Just then, the contraption began to twitch and move until it actually stood up on four robotic legs that resembled a spider's. It then crawled over to the figure who flashed a demented grin at it, "Why hello there #274! I know things seem to be quite confusing but don't worry...you'll adjust to things quite quickly. I know, I know, braces are a rather horrendous form of torture but it can't be helped! Dentures that are not simple to fix need a form of machinery to help with the repair!" The figure stated sounding like a mad scientist as the small drone looked around before it stationed itself in its position, as if waiting for an order. "I'm glad to see that you're immediately cooperative as well #274." The doctor chuckled as the blow torch for a hand was replaced by a regular prosthetic hand. "It's taken me weeks, if not months, to have all this set up. Always jumping from spot to spot, dump to dump, stealing and and experimenting. Were it for any other reason I would've thrown in the towel weeks ago but...it's all worth it in the end when it came to this." The mysterious doctor proclaimed as he raised his arms up, directing the comment at what looks to be a small but decrepit facility he created out of the many scraps in the junkyard. "I never would've imagined that my work would evolve in this! But am I complaining you may be asking, Gerald? No! Of course not! Why would I complain about my line of work! You think I'm crazy or something!?" The doctor exclaimed to the mouse who tilted his head with a squeak. "I didn't think so. And now that #274 is finished...let's start with the plan." He began to say before turning on a screen which showed the outside of the town before he switched channels a few times until he reached to one that showed the exterior of the Mystery Shack. "From what I've gathered there's a strong presence of supernatural activity around this weird hut. So, I'll have to send my babies there." The doctor stated before he turned and grinned widely from cheek to cheek, "Alrighty, boys and girls! You know what to do..." He said before suddenly, a multitude of domes glowed a bright green color in the darkness of the secret lab, positioned in various spots, "Let the operation begin...bwahahahaha!" The strange doctor laughed maniacally until he stopped upon seeing Gerald trying gnaw at #274's dome, "GERALD! THAT WAS YOUR LAST WARNING! FOR THAT YOU'RE GETTING THE PEPPER WITH EXTRA CHILI THIS TIME!" He exclaimed angrily before giving chase to the mouse.
It has been roughly a month ever since Dipper and Mabel's incredible and dangerous adventure in the Underground. The twins have experienced so much that it was amazing that both their mental and physical states are able to endure such harrowing trials during their venture in the kingdom of monsters. Along the way, the children have also acquired new and close allies in the form of monsters themselves which has blossomed into a familial relationship. Ever since the destruction of the barrier, the monsters that once resided within Mt. Ebott, which is purported to be the largest mountain in Gravity Falls, have all been set free and now roam the human world. However, under the guidance of Toriel and Asgore, mostly Toriel, the monsters are currently hiding among human society and blending quite well with them. At first the twins feared that they would no longer be able to communicate with their new friends, their fears have relatively subsided given that they promised they would meet again and that after the barrier's destruction, assured it would not be the last they would hear of them. And rightfully so, for in the span of two weeks following the arrival of the next month, Dipper and Mabel were quite surprised to learn that their monster friends have accessed social media so that way they would be able to communicate with them better. Everyone ranging from the skeleton brothers, Toriel and Asgore, and lastly Alphys along with Undyne have acquired accounts on social media such as Facebook and Skype, though these were the only two forms of communication the monsters can do with Dipper and Mabel having to teach them how to properly use it alongside Alphys' aid since she is familiar with such standards of the internet's function. Ever since then, the twins introduced them to their human online friends with the latter completely oblivious to the fact that they are real monsters. When it comes to this oblivious nature, Sans commented that the humans think the monsters are all foreigners that hailed from Canada or even Transylvania given their odd and macabre nature. Not only that but the twins have acquired a new member in their circle; Flowey the flower. Formerly known as Asriel Dreemurr, the young fallen prince of monsters, Flowey was originally a major antagonist to the twins, going out of his way to kill them in order to harness their souls alongside the six other human souls to gain his original form. Though after a long, grueling, and emotional battle, Asriel has seen the error of his ways and uses the last of his power to destroy the barrier and set all the monsters free, but this consequently would only cause him to revert into a flower once more, thereby no longer able to feel any kind of intense emotions such as love. However, Mabel was determined to not give up on him so easily, as she took Flowey from the now empty Underground, and promised that she would help him understand what friendship and family is, along with being able to feel love once more. Flowey, of course, was skeptical but he trusted both Mabel and Dipper's efforts into helping him understand and feel such bonds. A month later, Flowey was starting to get accustomed his new surroundings, sure they are quite weird and bizarre, but he has seen similar happenings during his time in the Underground so honestly this was not really something that new to him.
During this month, Dipper and Mabel introduced Flowey to Soos and Wendy and quite surprisingly, the two Mystery Shack employees did not really have that big of a reaction when they realized that a talking flower was now living with them. Sure at first they were surprised and bewildered by this predicament, they eventually came to accept it with the lumberjane and her fellow employee treating Flowey as a new friend. Flowey, of course, was not really all that enamored by their offerings of friendship, though thanks to Mabel he does manage to restrain himself from time to time. When it came to Wendy, she was relatively chill around Flowey with the flower in question actually finding her presence tolerable. Whenever they "hang out", Flowey and Wendy would mostly listen to music together while reading something, or they would silently mock Grunkle Stan behind the old man's back much to their amusement. Soos though was more of a nuisance to Flowey given that he finds him to be a mix of both Papyrus and Alphys in some shape or form. However, there were times where Soos would ask Flowey to perform in activities that the flower actually finds entertaining. Mostly things like putting hot dogs in the microwave and heat them up to the point where they explode, so Flowey did not really find him that annoying. Grunkle Stan, however, did not even have that much of a reaction when he realized that there is a talking flower living with his family now. It was almost as Stan is aware of Flowey in some way, but that was a stretch, right? There is no way that he is aware of Flowey, given that Grunkle Stan is quite old and has been living in Gravity Falls for quite some time to be fully aware of the weird and strange things that happen in the town, so a talking flower is not really that bizarre to him. Though the downside of this is that Grunkle Stan and Flowey would get into intense arguments, which from any standpoint looked to be two grumpy old men fighting, even though Flowey is technically still a child. They were not serious arguments though, more along the lines of pointless ones with them throwing insults at each other, which often serves as comedy or a headache to the audience. Half of the time, or almost all the time, both Mabel and Dipper with the aid of Soos would have to restrain the two from possibly killing each other should their arguments escalate any further the longer it went on. Flowey was wary of Gompers the goat for obvious reasons, but he was fine around Waddles, Mabel's pet pig. The pig in question took a liking to Flowey which of course Mabel finds adorable but Flowey finds annoying as Waddles would rest near Flowey and give him kisses much to his disgust.
Overall, Flowey was not really that much into his new home but seeing that it reminded him of a lot of things back in the Underground, he can stand to tolerate it from time to time. Within the Mystery Shack, it was another day in the life for the mystery twins with the new addition of Flowey the flower. Grunkle Stan had leave for parts unknown thus leaving Soos and Wendy to watch over the shack while he was gone. However, his absence provided Wendy with the freedom to hang out with her friends while Soos was left to clean the portable toilets. This in turn allowed Dipper to be in charge, even though Stan did not exactly shift the handling of the shack to him, but Dipper felt himself to be the more responsible one to watch over the shack in Stan's absence. Inside the gift shop, Mabel appeared to be sowing a new sweater and was concentrating to where she needed a magnifying glass as she was stationed behind the counter of the cash register. She also had a jar of buttons to the side with the jar itself labeled 'buttons'. Next to her was Flowey in his pot and next to the cash register, who was reading one of the magazines found her, with the contents of the read detailing the types of botanical gardens. He held up the magazine with his sepals which were actually newly grown, and did not take that long for him to use them as appendages. Mabel took a button out of the jar and pierced the sewing needle with the thread through the button's hole, "They said it couldn't be done. They say that I was crazy. Well then, wait until they feast their eyes on..." Mabel began to say as she reached down behind the counter before pulling out a sweater which had numerous buttons sewn on them, "THIS! My newest invention! Heh, who's crazy now, ya jelly sandwiches?" She declared proudly before placing the sweater on the counter and sewing another button on it, "I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that it's still you." Flowey mocked without having to look away from the magazine, Mabel just made a raspberry towards him, "You don't have to be jelly of my extravagant knitting skills, Flowey." Mabel claimed with a grin but Flowey rolled his eyes, "Yeah, because if there's one thing I'm jealous of it's your knitting skills." He sarcastically said when Mabel petted the top of his head, "There, there, my precious little flower. We're all good at something! We just have to dig deep, push it out like you've had two Red Hot Chili Tacos, and next thing you know...BOOM!" She yelled out startling Flowey a little, "What? Their butts explode? Because that actually takes talent to do that." Flowey stated with a smirk prompting Mabel to snort a laugh, "Ew no! Ya nasty!" She chortled when Dipper approached the two while having a labeling gun. He then noticed the sweater Mabel was working on and looked up at her with tired eyes, "Seriously, Mabel? You couldn't have done that upstairs?" Dipper questioned her with a raised brow. "Excuse me, Dipper Pines. I'll have you know that as a self-proclaimed Knitter Extraordinaire I have the privilege to create these ever-so fabulous sweaters anywhere I want!" Mabel declared when she stuck her tongue out at Dipper.
"Oh, well, in cause you haven't realized...I'm the one in charge here. Plus, Stan was the one that put me in charge and for a good reason." Dipper smugly said before crossing his arms together. "First off, wrinkles didn't put you in charge you just put yourself in charge. And secondly,from what I've been seeing around the shack I can't find any good reason why the old coot would put you in charge." Flowey mocked much to Dipper's chagrin, "Ohhhhh! Gonna need some aloe vera for that burn, Dipping Spice!" Mabel said supporting Flowey's insult towards Dipper. "Mock all you want, Flowey. But what I'm doing is more than just labeling it's-" He began to say only for Mabel to cut him off, "Labeling everything in the whole freaking store! Seriously, bro bro this place is a tourist trap not your room." Mabel said to him with a frown. "I'll have you know that this is more effective than you two would understand. Because it's not just merely labeling as I was trying to say...it's actually organizing, reorganizing, alphabetizing, re-RE-organizing, and sorting." Dipper declared as everything around the gift shop has been labeled based on the type of object or item that it is while being sorted into alphabetical order in their appropriate stations, "Ugh, it's like I'm in a library but the 2x Nerd Edition." Mabel shuddered as Flowey was in thought before he flashed a devious grin, "Actually, Dipper. There's just one last thing to account for." He said to him surprising Dipper, "What? Really?" He replied with a stunned expression, "Yep. Hand me that thing." Flowey said as Dipper gave him the label gun, with Flowey setting up the lettering, until suddenly he labeled Dipper's large forehead with the word 'DORK' written on it. "There we go." Flowey said with a grin, "Hey!" Dipper shouted angrily as Mabel laughed at that. "Hahaha! Guess that's one crazy thing checked off the list in the shop!" She said in-between laughs until Flowey then placed a label with the word 'DWEEB' on her forehead making her stop laughing. "Actually, make that two crazy things checked off the list. Hee hee hee!" Flowey corrected her before laughing as Mabel tried to remove the label off her forehead with Dipper glaring at Flowey then snatching the gun away from him. "You know instead of turning this place into every unorganized freak's nightmare, why don't you do something productive like...I dunno. Go out there and find some strange monster or something." Flowey suggested as he went back to reading the magazine, "That's...actually not a bad idea." Dipper said in odd agreement, "So does that mean you admit what you're doing is a waste of time?" Flowey questioned him without having to look away from the magazine, "Well, I wouldn't say it's a complete waste of time." Dipper retorted with a mischievous smirk before putting a label on Flowey's flower pot with the word 'BUTTERCUP' on it. Flowey paused before he looked down and growled deeply, "Why y- DIPPER! I SWEAR WHEN I GET MY ROOTS ON YOU!" Flowey exclaimed in fury as Dipper quickly left the gift shop all while Mabel was trying to take the label off though for some reason could not reach it.
Outside, Dipper was venturing in the forest examining it while he held the journal by his side. He then stopped, took a deep breath, and exhaled, "Man, it's moments like these where you just stop to wonder...why the heck didn't I carry bug spray with me." He grumpily said before swatting a mosquito off of his arm. He then opened the journal before sitting on a log, "Alrighty then, let's see if we can find anything here that'll be great for a documentation." Dipper said to himself as he flipped through a few pages, "Okaaay? Talking couches, giant five headed dragons, a glowing cloud...ooh here's one that won't exactly murder my butt off." He said with a lit face as there was a rough sketch of a creature known as the Bunyip. The sketch of the creature described its appearance as having a dog-like face, a crocodile like head, dark fur, a horse-like tail, flippers, and walrus-like tusks or horns or a duck-like bill. "The Bunyip...a mythical creature of Australian origin, this bizarre entity is said to lay and wait at night to devour any animal or person that would dare come near its domain. Further studies show that it typical resides in swamps, billabongs, creeks, riverbeds, and waterholes." He read out loud with his shoulders tensing, "Yeesh. One nasty sucker aren't you?" He directed the question towards the Bunyip but flashed a confident and anticipated look, "But totally gonna be worth the search!" He concluded in excitement before he placed the book in the pocket of his vest and headed off to a nearby riverbed where the Bunyip would potentially be. However, unbeknownst to him, a pair of familiar robotic crab-like creatures were observing him high above a tree, before they crawled to where he was heading. Meanwhile, outside of Gravity Falls, a family car was seen driving along the road and looked to be heading towards the direction of where the town is. Inside the car, some tunes were being played until a large hand reached over and turned the dial to change the channel, "Ugh, come on, seriously? I can't even find some good show tunes in this darn radio..." The man grumbled with him looking to be overweight, had a beard, short hair, was wearing a red plaid shirt, blue jeans, and shoes. Behind him at the back of the car were four children, three boys and one girl. The girl in question was leaning against the edge of the door, resting her head on her head with a bored expression. She has dark blue hair with a little dragonfly hairclip, brown eyes, a round, wide, childish face with freckles on both sides of her cheeks (three on both sides). She looked to be a rather skinny girl with spindly legs. She has a blunt, blue haircut which she parts on the left side of her head. She can be seen wearing swampers (rain boots), a pink-stripped long-sleeved shirt, and blue jeans. She seems to be around thirteen years old. "Maybe that's a sign telling us that this field trip wasn't really the brightest idea my parents came up with." She sardonically stated rolling her eyes, "Come on, Coraline. I'm sure this trip won't be...completely boring." The boy next to her assured her, who was twelve years old, and who in question had pale skin, blue eyes, thick eyebrows and spiky brown hair. He is seen wearing either a red hoodie with a grey sweater underneath, wears a pair of black jeans, and red sneakers. "You know, Norman, judging by that tone of voice, I'd wager that it's gonna be so boring that I might just have to walk all the way back to Ashland...and that alone would be fun than having to go on this stupid trip." Coraline remarked lowly. "Worth a shot." Norman shrugged his shoulders.
The boy next to Norman, who was eleven, smiled as he glanced at Coraline and Norman. He looked to be pudgy boy with curly ginger hair, freckles on his cheeks, dark green pants, gray sneakers, a dark blue jacket with a yellow shirt underneath. "But going on field trips is fun! You get to explore the outdoors, take in the sights, smell that lovely plant smell, maybe with a hint of poop in the mix...but that's nature." He proclaimed optimistically. "Um, could probably do without the poop, Neil. But yeah you're right about all that." Normal said to him with a low smile as Neil flashed a cheesy grin. The third boy next to Neil looked to be of African-American decent, and has coarse, curly, dark brown hair. He also has hazel eyes and a tanned complexion. He also seems to be wearing a black coat with silver trimming, light jeans, and skeleton-looking gloves. "I'm totally right about all that! I mean look at Wybie...you can tell how excited he is by all that sweating." Neil said as he looked over to Wybie, "U-um, well, I'm not really sweating because of that...uh.." The boy nervously corrected Neil with Coraline looking at him, "I'd rather you NOT say the reason why you're sweating so much, Why Were You Born." She told him while saying his mock nickname she made up, "I-It's not for those kind of reasons, Jonsie! It's just..." Wybie tried to say until the man who was driving interrupted him by saying, "It's that time where boys start to get these weird boy feelings. Look, Wyborn, I'd give you the whole 'how a man's body changes' speech but that's gonna have to wait since Coraline's here." He said mistakenly thinking that Wybie is experiencing puberty given that he is only thirteen years old. "I'm not talking about-!" Wybie tried to correct him, "I know, I know, it's pretty embarrassing. But trust me, all boys go through those stages when the time's right." He continued to say with Norman rolling his eyes and Coraline having a disgusted look on her face, "Dad, can we maybe, like, not talk about this?" Norman advised him anxiously, revealing the man to be his father. "Yeah, because if this went on any further I can promise you that I'll jump out of this car." Coraline assured them with furrowed brows. "But there's nothing really wrong when a boy starts to feel his-" Neil began to say only for Coraline to immediately cut him off, "That's it! I'm jumping out of this car!" She exclaimed as she rolled down the window when Norman's dad stopped her, "Whoa, whoa, no one's jumping out of any car! We're not in some Mission Impossible film, alright?" He sternly said as Coraline sat back down with a huff before glaring at Neil, "What? I mean it can't be that different from the way Mitch told me." He stated with Norman flashing Neil an odd look, "Neil, I think you're gonna have join Wybie on the whole...body changing talk cause no offense...Mitch isn't really a reliable source." He said to him rubbing the back of his neck. "But Mitch is like old so that means he's went through it...which means he's a reliable source." Neil retorted with a silly smile, "Your brother's anything but reliable at this point, junior." Coraline remarked with a frown before leaning back against the seat, "Two hours on the road and already I can feel my brain cells popping from having to be in the same car with you dorks." She proclaimed grumpily, "Awh, lighten up, Jonsie. We're almost there, anyway. So, what's the worst that can happen?" Wybie wondered with a weak smile until he paused along with the three when they heard the car's engine emitting a few popping noises of malfunction, until eventually, the car began to arrive to a slow halt, "You've gotta be kidding me with this...first the stinkin' radio and now the stinkin' engine?" Norman's father complained with a low growl prompting Coraline to give Wybie a glare, "What was that you said about a worst case scenario, Why-Were-You-Born?" She questioned him sternly with Wybe flashing her an anxious grin before cowering in his seat, "Wow. Stuck in the middle of the road? Already this trip is getting my blood pumped!" Neil buoyantly cheered with Norman raising one brow, "At least one of us is excited..." He remarked.
Meanwhile, Dipper was currently hiding behind a tree and peering out from the side to see none other than the Bunyip itself emerging from the bank of the river. The creature let out a low rumble before shaking off the water from its body. Dipper stared at the creature in astonishment before he went back into hiding behind the tree and writing down his thoughts on the creature itself, "This is amazing. I'm actually looking at the legendary Bunyip. And it's way bigger than I thought it would be...almost as big as a horse or maybe even bigger." Dipper audibly said but in a low tone of voice like a whisper before slowly and cautiously peering back at the Bunyip which looked to be pulling out a large grouper, and licked its lips hungrily preparing for a meal. "From what I can see the Bunyip's already got its first meal today. Just a regular fish...nothing special but...man this is extraordinary I have no words for this. Wait...I kinda do and I'm writing it down but...why am I even saying what I'm writing?" Dipper questioned himself bizarrely as the Bunyip prepared to devour the grouper only to pause and jerk its head up seemingly in alarm. The Bunyip sniffed twice as its yellow eyes shifted left to right in inspection, before it slowly hunched low in a threatening manner with a low but deep growl. "Uh oh...I think it's on to me. But...how? I've covered myself in perfume that's tomato scented. There's no way this thing can pick up my scent...they hate tomatoes, right?" Dipper wondered as he flipped through the back trying to find the page of the Bunyip once again. "Come on, where's the page...?" He mumbled before he peaked from behind the tree again, only gasp in shock and horror to see that the Bunyip was nowhere in sight, "Uh oh...that's not good..." He muttered in apprehension as he stood up behind the tree, backing away slowly while looking around in caution at fright. He backed away slowly from where the Bunyip was, only to freeze when he felt hot breath being blown against the back of his head. Dipper's eyes widened in trepidation before swallowing a lump in his throat, "O-Okay, Dipper...you've seen the cartoons and the movies...and you know if you t-turn around the monster's gonna kill you...so...the best course of action would be to-" But he did not need to continue as he immediately sprinted forward with the Bunyip letting out a chilling and loud roar which actually sounded like the combination of a bull, elephant, and a tiger making it all the more frightening. Dipper was screaming in fear as he ran as fast as his noodle legs could support him, all while he heard the Bunyip galloping speedily behind him, with the creature hopping and leaping from one spot to the next in avoidance of the oncoming trees as it gave chase to the Pines boy, "I CHANGED MY MIND! THIS WAS A TERRIBLE IDEA! I SWEAR I'M GONNA GET FLOWEY FOR THIS!" Dipper exclaimed as he panted quickly while running through the woods.
Dipper jumped over a few logs while sliding underneath some other ones but kept his pace up. The Bunyip was closing in on Dipper, and just as it lunged in order to claim its next victim, Dipper pushed forward a flexible branch that swung and whacked the monster in the face with the Bunyip eliciting a pained sound as it was knocked to the ground. Dipper continued to run before he skidded across the ground to a halt then immediately took cover behind a large log. He panted heavily with sweat trickling down his face until he took a few long moments to regain his breath. He noticed that Bunyip was no longer chasing him, could it be that he managed to lose it? He was afraid to check but he had to in order to make it out of here alive. He slowly but shakily peeked from behind the log and his eyes widened by two inches to see that the Bunyip was nowhere to be seen. He breathed a sigh of relief, but that relief was short lived as the Bunyip suddenly landed down in behind Dipper who screamed in terror with the beast letting out a roar. It was about to swing its clawed hand at Dipper intending to shred him, only for a surprising event to happen. Several small shapes landed on the Bunyip with the beast letting out a surprised and confused sound. Dipper too was quite stunned by this developed and gasped upon seeing that these shapes looked to be having glass domes for heads like jellyfish with robotic appendages. What was shocking was that inside the domes looked to be brains that resembled a sort of nucleus. The Bunyip tried to shake these creatures off violently as they hooked onto the back of the creature, that is until one landed on its head and hooked some kind of proboscis that emerged from the underbelly within the monster's skull. Immediately, the Bunyip's pupils dilated, almost as if it was put in a trance before the domes of these robotic critters glowed a bright green. Dipper continued to stare in extreme bewilderment at what was happening, when the Bunyip then slowly stood up, turning around and walking away, though it was swaying a little like it was in a daze, and it looked as though these small robotic spider-like crabs were controlling it in someway, mainly through the main one that was lodged into the Bunyip's head. Two of the robots were following the Bunyip, until one of them stopped and turned to look at Dipper who paused in apprehension with wide eyes when he noticed that it looked at him. The robotic crab's lenses expanded then decreased, almost as if it resembled a camera which in actuality it was. Because through it, the same mad doctor that created these small things was looking at Dipper through his drone from a large screen inside his small lab, "Well, well, look what we have here...a witness." The doctor proclaimed with a sinister smirk, "And my, my, what an unusually but lovely large head he has. No doubt it's filled with nasty cavities, heh heh heh." He remarked in a sadistic tone before he ordered the drone to walk away and join with the rest of the group, leaving behind a befuddled and highly confused Dipper. "He maybe a witness but it was thoughtful of him to provide me with the perfect patient in my little project...but that won't change the fact that I'll have to...'deal' with him and that big head of his. Oooh, I can already tell that he'll have quite the lovely brain which will give me plenty of fun pulling it out. Hahaha! This little trip was worth it after all!" The doctor declared in a mad fashion and with a wide demented toothy grin.
"...w...what...what the heck just happened...?" Dipper stuttered in questioning of the events that have just occurred before him. But he shook himself out of his shock, "Agh, I can't be thinking about this here! I've gotta get back and tell Mabel about this...while also making sure that Flowey gets buried in manure for this." Dipper stated with the last sentences being said in an angry tone of voice before he stood back and hastily made his way back to the Mystery Shack. Speaking of which, Mabel was currently checking out her new button themed sweater and looked to be quite proud of herself for the effort she put in it, "Am I some sweater making genius or what?" Mabel proclaimed proudly with Flowey just staring at her from behind the magazine, "Or what is a good question. Besides, don't you think that the buttons are like a bit much or something?" Flowey asked her with annoyed furrowed brows, "Pfft, there's no such thing as a bit much or little much. There's only a perfect amount when it comes to these babies!" Mabel retorted as she shook the sweater which made Flowey cringe, "I take it back. That's just too much." He growled as Mabel approached him, "What's the matter, Flowey? You getting bedazzled by the majesty of my sweater?" Mabel questioned him with a sly look prompting Flowey to glare at her placing the magazine down, "Yeah, Mabel. I'm so bedazzled I could just tear the sweater apart. It's that bedazzling." He replied sardonically with Mabel giggling, "You're so silly." She told him making him grumble the word, "Idiot.." Lowly as he shook his head. "Oh well, at least we won't have to deal with Captain Alphabet." Mabel assured him referring to Dipper, but speak of the Devil, he came barging inside the gift shop, panting heavily with a distressed look on his face, "Speak of the nerd and he shall appear." Flowey said directing the comment towards Dipper with Mabel shrugging her shoulders until she rushed over to Dipper who shut the door behind him quickly, "Whoa, Dipping spice. Calm down. You look like you needed to use the modern nature toilet instead of the old nature toilet." Mabel assumed with concerned furrowed brows, "Mabel, you're not gonna believe what just happened...!" Dipper told her a little out of breath still while clutching her shoulders, " -gasp- Did you see any fairies!? Some magical princess!? Wait, wait, was there a cute and sexy vampire that just so happens to sparkle under the sunlight~?" She purred eagerly with Flowey flashing her a look of disgust at the mention of that. "No i-it's actually way better than all of those...or worse depending on how you see it." Dipper said to her with Mabel squealing, "It's the vampire!? Please tell me it's a vampire!" She urged in excitement, "No it's not a vampire! It's a Bunyip!" Dipper revealed but that only served to both disappoint and confuse Mabel, "A bun-wha?" She repeated in confusion, "I'll explain everything but first...I seriously need a glass of water." Dipper stated as he felt his throat getting dry from the harrowing sprinting he did. "Huh. How 'bout that? My ideas actually can have a positive effect." Flowey remarked with a smirk.
Sometime later, the sun was already setting and Dipper was explaining what he encountered while he was in the forest. Mabel, of course, was quite stunned by this and even Flowey looked to be surprised. "Wait a minute so...you're saying that a bunch of weird brain crabs came in and saved your bacon by catching this Bunny Yippie thing?" Mabel repeated in bewilderment, "First off, it's Bunyip. And second...yes." Dipper confirmed before taking a sip of water. "And I thought the Underground was insane. Actually, it is but wow..." Flowey muttered in disbelief. "Well, on the bright side at least you weren't eaten or anything." Mabel said as she patted Dipper's shoulder, "Yeah, but if I was you'd know who to blame for that." He retorted with his statement directed at a certain flower, "Oh, well excuse me if I'm not some maniac that likes to explore spooky dangerous forest to find spooky dangerous monsters." Flowey mocked with Dipper frowning, "You're the one that gave me the idea in the first place!" He shot at him angrily, "And you're the idiot that listened to me!" Flowey retorted until Mabel stepped in between them, "Boys! Boys! Let's all just calm down and enjoy the soothing sound of my sweater." She suggested as she shook her button themed sweater a little, but before anyone else could say anything, the door to the gift shop swung open, starling both the twins and Flowey, with a visitor entering the place. The camera panned up slowly to absorb the visitor's entire looked to be wearing a strange item of clothing that's an amalgamation of lab coat and a straight jacket. His head is covered by a large flowered shower cap and his eyes have been replaced by two mechanical contraptions, one red and the other green. He wears a long rubber glove on is left arm, but his right arm has been replaced with a clawed, pepper grinder-like prosthetic. "Did I hear the chattering of molas~?" The visitor questioned eagerly with a deranged expression, revealing it to be the doctor who had sent these crabboid drones after the Bunyip. The twins and Flowey stared at this new comer anxiously, as his appearance gave off nothing but bad vibes and every thing in their bodies told them to keep their distance from this guy. When the doctor noticed the children, his face dropped to one of disappointment, "Ugh, figures. It's just a couple of kids with their fancy shmancy sweaters and their cute little yellow flowers with faces on them. One disappointment after another..." The doctor grumbled until he noticed Dipper who swallowed a lump in his throat and taking a step back, "...but I digress. It's not a complete disappointment." He retracted his statement before taking a few steps towards the children who jumped very slightly from his sudden movement, "I don't suppose you youngins have any...brains?" The doctor asked them with anticipation which made them all the more concerned, especially since he was looming over Dipper. Before anyone could answer, Mabel stepped in and offered him a jar with a brain inside, "Here you go, sir! Generously donated to us by the Gravity Falls morgue! It runs on low cholesterol and body fat! No charge at all, either!" Mabel said to him quickly as though she wanted him to leave the gift shop as soon as possible.
The doctor examined the brain inside the jar for a moment, before opening the lid and tossing it to the ground, "Low fat? Low cholesterol?!" He exclaimed as he removed the brain from the jar, examining it up close, "It's like low nerves on a neurotransmitter! Dead as a door nail watching twenty four hour cable! What can I possible gain from these poor specimens!?" The doctor questioned in frustration before he casually tossed the jar aside, putting the brain back in first, with the glass jar smashing to the floor near where Flowey was, startling Dipper in the process until the Pines boy glared at the doctor harshly for that, "Welp, looks like the morgue will be getting more than just IOUs." The flower commented as the doctor was rummaging through a chest in search of something that could be of use to him, "No teeth, no licensed weapons...what kind of washed down gift shop is this? And why is everything labeled...and why is there a talking flower?!" He continued to complain before slamming his prosthetic hand on a fortune chest which caused a small paper to emerge from the slot. The doctor took the paper curiously, "A magical fortune box?" He read the name of this device but looked to be quite intrigued on what the paper was telling him as Dipper approached him with his arms crossed, "Look, man. I'm mister manager around here and-" Dipper began to say until the doctor cut him off, "You? Ha! The label queen?" He shot him an amused look, "That's what I've been saying." Flowey added with a smirk, "Yeah I- wait...NO! I'm the label KING! And this is my castle. And if you're gonna trash my castle then you can just leave my castle!" Dipper proclaimed strongly pointing towards the exit door of the gift shop all while the doctor could just look at him not really fazed by his supposedly strong tone of voice. The two then paused upon hearing clapping, which came from Mabel as she clapped in cheer for her brother's strong composure and tone of voice with Flowey just casually waving a flag that says 'Go Dipper' though he did not seem to be all that impressed at all nor did he care. "Alright, alright. Goodness, children these days have no idea on how hospitality works. What's worse is that I get this treatment from the labelmatic 4000, a girl who doesn't know jack about neuroscience, and a grumpy talking flower!" The doctor exclaimed tossing his arms up, "Hmph. But...given the fact that you two happen to be special cases...there's just one thing left to do." He then stated in a foreboding voice with Flowey raising one eyebrow before narrowing his eyes, "And what would that be, Frankenstein?" He asked him with suspicion behind his voice as the twins stood by him. "Oh it's nothing serious, really. Just standard procedure." The doctor oddly replied before he raised his prosthetic arm up, which the fingers then retracted inside along with a good portion of the hand. The hand was then replaced with a large menacing drill that instantly activated as the doctor gave off an insane and eager demeanor, "Root canal, children! Say aaah!" The doctor advised them in a demented manner with the twins and Flowey screaming in fright at that as they huddled up in fear, "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" The three shrieked in terror.
Surprise! Bet you didn't think that this would be the sequel to Beneath the Falls. Though I have to remind you it's more of an indirect sequel than a direct sequel. Now you're probably wondering: why is the Mystery Kids an indirect sequel to Beneath the Falls? Well, if my readers have the eyes of an eagle, you'd notice that there have been hints and clues that leads up to this story you see here now. Another question you might be asking: how is this going to connect everything that's happened in Beneath the Falls? And how will this answer the questions that have been left answered after the story's conclusion? Well, all I can say is that you have to be patient. As I've already finished planning out the rest of the stories that perfectly align everything. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. Also, yes, I am aware that the Mystery Kids was already an idea but this is just my take on the story with some major changes to it. So, here it is. The beginning of what promises to be a huge adventure, with a huge cast, and huge threats. I don't own Gravity Falls, Undertale, ParaNorman, Coraline, or Psychonauts. Read and Review.
