Hey peoples of the world. This is my very first Gravity Falls fanfic, and I'm so excited about it. I just NOW got the intell about Reverse Pines, so that's what my story was about. I couldn't find a story that was decent length, and had enough Dipper vs Gleeful Twins, so I decided to make one of my own. I hope y'all like this story. Enjoy, and remember to R.R!

Chapter 1: Entering the Vortex

Dipper was chilling in the living room of the Mystery Shack reading through his journal. Mabel was out with Candy and Grenda, so she was going to be gone for a while. Grunkle Stan was outside giving tours. Soos and Wendy were about to leave to go to the store, so they asked Dipper if he wanted to come with. Dipper declined, and the two went on their way as he went back to his journal. Then Soos came back and said,

"By the way dude, make sure you keep an eye on the place. Stan told me that he was going to be out longer than he thought. I guess he got more tourists then he had anticipated, huh?"

"No problem Soos. I got it."

Soos gave a thumbs up, then left with Wendy. Dipper finished reading over a section of his book with the invisible ink, so he closed the journal, set it on the chair, and went into the gift shop to inspect, and made sure all was good. He looked around the exhibits, and laughed at how stupid some of them looked. He then walked into the gift shop, and everything seemed to be ok. Dipper was about to leave, when he heard something sound like it was opening behind him. He turned around, and saw there was a a small opening behind the vending machine that had bright blue light coming from inside.

"What the heck?" Dipper asked as he went and grabbed his journal.

Once he grabbed the maroon colored book with the golden, six-fingered hand with a "3" on it, he ran back to the gift shop. The vending machine was still cracked. Dipper put the journal in his dark blue vest, and went over to the vending machine. He pulled it open until there was a big enough opening for him to go inside. He went down some stairs, until he saw an elevator, and he stomped his foot when he saw that it needed a code.

"Shoot!" Dipper then turned around, and opened the journal to see if it had any answers.

Then Dipper heard the sound of a vault being slowly pried open. When the 12 year old turned around he saw the elevator doors slowly opening. Dipper put his journal back in his vest, then slowly walked inside the ominous elevator. Once the doors closed, he went all the way down to the third floor. Once he was there, he was filled with shock, amazement, and most importantly, curiosity. He slowly walked towards a giant machine that was glowing bright blue, and almost white.

"Does Grunkle Stan know about this? If he does, then why hasn't he told me and Mabel? Mainly why hasn't he told ME?! He knows how much I'm interested in this sort of stuff!"

Many thoughts and questions passed through Dipper's mind as he continued to look around; trying his best to avoid the force that was pulling into the portal. Dipper went over to a desk, where he found many computers and different switches and buttons. Dipper then noticed a book lying on the desk. It looked almost exactly like his journal but with one major difference; this journal had a "1" on it. Dipper gasped and took a step back. As he did, he tripped over backwards and started being sucked into the portal.

"AH! NO NO NO NO!" Dipper yelled as he was sucked Into the portal.

(CLIFF HANGER! Hope you guys liked my story. I'll have the next one up in the next few days. Until then, Peace, Love, and Hugs)
