A/N: The Davincibles can be seen on Kabillion or on Hulu.
Dipper and Mabel were walking around town on an errand for their Grunkle Stan. Apparently he ran out of aftershave and sent the kids to buy some. "Can you believe that Grunkle Stan sent us out to buy him a bottle of this!" Dipper complained. Today was a rare day when he had finished all of his chores early and was planning to spend the rest of the day looking for more monsters he's read about in his Book.
"Oh come on Dipper, this is a great chance for us to hang out and...PENNY!" Mabel cried as she ran across the street barely avoiding getting hit by the oncoming cars! She then made a desperate leap and started rolling on the ground!
"Mabel!" Dipper cried after her, only waiting for the signs to change and looking both ways before crossing the street. "Mabel, are you alright?" he asked after finally catching up to her.
"Aw, it wasn't a penny," Mabel sighed sadly as she picked up this object on the ground. "It was a dime!" she said excitedly showing her brother the new coin she acquired.
"Geez Mabel, why would you risk life like that for a stupid coin?" Dipper groaned before his eyes started to widen. "Oh no, Grunkle Stan has gotten to you. You're becoming a money grubber just like him!" Dipper cried. "Mabel please, you've got to snap out of it! Money won't bring you happiness! Look at Stan!" Dipper pleaded.
"Oh pish, I'm not doing this just for money." Mabel laughed. "I'm just trying to save enough to buy that thing I always wanted, and you know every little bit helps." Mabel looked up to the sky with her eyes sparkling.
"You mean you still want that human sized hamster ball?" Dipper groaned. "Seriously, why would you want something so stupid?"
"It's not stupid! I'm positive that everyone would love to have one!" Mabel insisted.
"Yeah right, I would like to see someone other than you who'd want a human size hamster ball!" Dipper retorted. Just then a giant human sized hamster ball with three people inside rolled right passed them. "And of course that had to happen," Dipper groaned.
"Oh come on Dippin' Dots, let's see if they'll let us use their ball." Mabel said. "And to make sure that they are alright," she added before chasing after the ball. Dipper just shrugged and chased after it as well. The two found the ball crashed on the side of the building with the three people, a boy, a girl, and an old man, crawling out of it.
"Uncle Leo, why couldn't we just take the bus like normal people?" the boy asked.
"Because the DaVincis are a family of brave explorers, we do everything bravely. No sissy stuff for us." the man identified as Uncle Leo preached.
"Hey are you guys alright?" Dipper asked.
"We're fine thanks for asking." the girl said as she got back up.
"Hey, can I have a turn in your hamster ball please?" Mabel asked eagerly.
"You can have it!" the two kids said at the same time.
"Yes!" Mabel cheered, but just as she was about to crawl into the ball, Leo snatched it away from her.
"Sorry but you can't have this, this is our ride home!" Leo argued keeping the ball out of Mabel's reach. "But if you want, I'm willing to trade for it."
Mabel began searching her pockets. "I've got some taffy," she offered holding up a handful of candy.
"Ooh yummy," Leo licking his lips as he reached over to accept the sweets when he noticed something off. "Hey this is just the wrappers! Where's the candies?" he demanded examining the wrappers.
"I have no idea," Mabel said with a mouthful along with a piece of taffy sticking out of her mouth.
"Well then no deal," Leo said sternly as he rolled the ball away. Mabel started to cry, seeing her one chance at having a human size hamster ball slipping through her fingers.
Not wanting to see his sister sad, Dipper stepped up. "Hey wait!" Dipper said. "We have some more stuff at our shop the Mystery Shack. Maybe you can find something there you are willing to trade for." Dipper suggested.
"The Mystery Shack, sound like a good place to look for souvenirs!" Leo decided.
"But Uncle Leo!" the kids argued, wanting to point our how the Mystery Shack is just a tourist trap, and how they know that most likely their uncle will most likely be scammed.
"Now Pablo, Zoe, we are on a DaVinci family vacation, so we should check out the local gift shops." Leo snorted. The kids groaned already knowing that this will end badly, but none would expect just how badly.
In another part of town, five strange individuals arrived by bus. The first was a man with a deformed Picasso like face, the second was a small woman in a lab coat, followed by two opera singer twins, and last a guy in a skunk outfit. "Please Dr. Meanie can you please explain to why you brought the Society of Very Bad Villains to this remote dump?" the Picasso like face man asked.
"Well Quba, after much searching I believe I have finally located a man who will be of valuable help to me...I mean us!" the woman named Dr. Meanie replied.
"And what's so special about him?" The Two Tenors sang.
"He is my old teacher. I learned everything I know from him. With his help I can complete my greatest invention then the S.V.B.V will be able to conquer the world!" Dr. Meanie insisted.
"Well if he's as good as you say then"
"AAAHHHH! Get him off me! Get him off me!" Mascot cried as he ran around with a crazy old man riding on his back while biting his skunk head.
"Heh, heh, heh, looks like I'm having giant polecat for supper!" the crazy old man laughed as he continued to bite down on Mascot.
"Stop please, I'm not a real skunk, just a boy in a costume!" Mascot pleaded.
"That's what all you giant talking polecats with two faces says," the old man said now pulling our a fork and knife.
"Enough of this!" Quba yelled kicking the old man off of Mascot. "Who do you think you are, trying to eat a member of the Society of Very Bad Villains?"
"Wait, Professor McGucket? Is that you?" Dr. Meanie asked in astonishment.
McGucket jumped back up and started doing his trademark crazy jig. "Name's Old Man McGucket, but I ain't no Prof little boy," McGucket said patting Dr. Meanie on the head. "Say you know you remind me of little monkey I use to know. Yeah she's always hanging around, helping me make my death robots. I wonder what happen to her? I hope I didn't eat her."
"That's me! Willemina Meanie." Dr. Meanie said raising her hand. "Don't you remember? I was your evil assistant."
"You are? Good to see you again. Well then this calls for a celebration!" McGucket said as he danced down the street gesturing them all to follow him.
"That is your old mentor? This explains a lot." Quba said dryly at his mad scientist. Dr. Meanie chuckled nervously as they chased after McGucket.
Meanwhile the Pines twins were leading the Davincis down a dirt path towards the Mystery 'S'hack. "Wow so you guys have really traveled all over the world looking for exotic treasures?" Dipper asked the Davincis with admiration. The life of a world adventurer has always been his dream.
"Well we don't really look for treasures, but rather rare and sometimes stupid antiques." Zoe explained.
"So have you fought crazy monsters and such? Cause we've been fighting monsters all the time around here." Dipper boasted wanting to impress them.
"Oh we've had our fair share of monsters," Pablo said with a smug attitude. "Remind me to tell you about the time I had to tame a wild dragon." He sighed, that adventure was one of his most memorable moments since his crush Cherie actually got his name right that day.
"Um wasn't it my ring tone that tamed the dragon," Zoe retorted. Anything to knock her brother down a few pegs.
"Details, the point is I took care of that dragon," Pablo said trying to make it look like he deserved most of the credit.
"Really!" Mabel said with excitement already getting ready to strike her claim on Pablo. "Hey we're here!" Mabel exclaimed pointing to the Mystery Shack. Inside the Zoe and Pablo were going through the souvenirs, while Leo was admiring the attractions.
"Ooh this would look nice at my store the Kurios Kat," Leo said admiring some of the displays, most of which were just junk that Soos glued together this morning.
"If you want them you've got to buy them, $10...I mean $100 dollars each." Stan said as he walked into the room.
"That voice? I know that voice." Leo gasped as he turned to see the owner.
"YOU!?" Stan gasped. "It's been a long time Leonardo DaVinci."
"Stanford Pines, my old partner! I must say I didn't expect to see you ever again." Leo snorted.
"You guys know each other," the kids wondered.
"Oh yeah, I know him," Stan spat. "I can't tell you how many times he nearly got me killed chasing after some worthless artifact!"
"Not nearly as many the times as you got me arrested with your get rich quick schemes!" Leo shot back. The kids gulped as the two elders stared at each other intensely. Both of whom looked ready for a fight!
