Dipper walked home from the bus, his sister being annoying.
"Can you believe that the summer is over? It seems like it just started but now it's over I guess." Mabel said looking at Dipper with some flowers that she picked on the way here.
"I kind of miss the crazy stuff of Gravity Falls. Maybe something came back with us." Dipper speculated and Mabel shook her head.
"Rather not have some of that crazy stuff, bop!" She said then threw one of the flowers in the road and the cars would go over it.
"Just think that Gravity Falls is the only place with monsters, there must be somewhere else or…" He stopped for a second and looked down at the ground.
"Dipper, you got to get this out of your head. It's a new school year and you should be ready and forget about some of the things back in Gravity Falls until next summer." Mabel said looking over to him.
"I guess I guess, but ever since mom said I should talk to people online about the supernatural. I've met two kids, one a twin, another a triplet. Everyone's parents also seem to talk about stuff too. One lives in Oregon, and one in Washington. Funny enough I never heard of the town names they came from. I tried to look them up but found nothing." Dipper said looking over to his sister.
"Look I understand that you met these people but what if they are from somewhere else?" Mabel asked.
"Somewhere else like they are lying where they live?" Dipper looked confused.
"No, like different universes, parallel ones. It explains the weird town names. I mean it does." Mabel smiled skipping down the sidewalk
"Different universes, I want to ask them." Dipper pulled out his phone and almost call up Emilee Sprocket, a twin sister to a popular sports kid in school.
"You're texting Emilee, huh? Why not North ya know the cool kid." Mabel bumped him, he would blush.
"It's not like that Mabel, and why text North? Do you have a crush on him? Don't tell me the summer romances are back." Dipper shook his head.
"They're not…" Mabel looked back. Dipper took out a book and looked through the pages.
"Let me just call them they must be out of school already." Dipper grabbed the phone and called them both and put it on speaker.
"May I help ya?" A quiet voice said trying to speak over the loud talking of kids.
"Hey Emilee, I was wondering if you're from a different universe. Mabel and I thought it would be possible because we never heard the town that you come from," Dipper asked Emilee.
"Parallel Universes are common, didn't your Great Uncle go there, Dipper?" Another voice said this time not talking with a bunch kids but some kids were heard either saying 'Give me the ball' or 'Tag you're it'.
"Ford didn't tell me much about that portal or what it could do. I mean he was stuck in there for 30 years." Dipper said.
"I thought he was crazy, which I still think I do, right puppet Dipper?" Mabel pulled out her hand with a sock puppet of Dipper and made him say 'Oh yes I do' making a Dipper impression.
"Oh, hey Mabel," Emilee said.
"Are those dork friends you talk to, sis?" A voice came from next to her, some of the people on the bus went quiet but young kid voices were still heard faintly. Many were whispering now.
"You shut up, Elliot," Emilee said then went back to her phone. "Sorry about that everyone just really hates me in school. I have no friends at the school so…"
"You still have us, you're one of the best theorists for the supernatural," North said the sound of a swing was heard.
"Yeah, you're amazing Emilee. I never met anyone that was so into the supernatural and the unknown. Also, smart girls are really cool." Dipper said kicking a rock.
"Guys, you don't have to say that. I'm only 13." Emilee laughed under her breath trying not to be heard on the bus. The bus would stop, she would get up, went to the back of the line and get off. She walked down to the park then sat on a bench next to a small oak tree.
"You're amazing. No one can be hard on themselves." North said.
"Thanks. You guys are lucky I got off the bus. I want to show you something." She said turning on her camera. Her auburn hair reflected in the sun. "Now all of us have something weird about ourselves. Something that many people don't have. I call them mistakes but they are just like birth defects or something I don't know. North, you have the extra finger on your right hand. Dipper, you have the birthmark." Dipper would touch his forehead.
"We are all amazing! Different amazing…" Emilee smiled.
"You know both of you guys do hide your defects. Dipper's hair hides his birthmark. Emilee, you dye your hair every so often. It's kind of hard hiding a sixth finger." North said turning on his camera, he waved his right hand showing the finger.
"He's like Great Uncle Ford, Dipper," Mabel said.
"Don't mention that, Mabel." Dipper pushed her.
"I'll call you guys later, I need to get home before someone sees me here," North said looking around the people looking at him strangely. "See you guys!" The call ended.
Dipper looked at Mabel as something floated next to them.
