All He felt after seeing his parents disappear was a falling motion. He didn't know where he was, what was going on or what was going to happen.

After what felt like hours, he hit the ground with a huge thud.

"Welcome Dipper Pines." Announced an unknown voice. "You have been chosen to save the future from the being known as Bill Cipher."

"Bill? But Great Uncle Ford already defeated him by erasing Stan's memory's."

"This is true, but before he could do that Cipher destroyed me."

"If you were destroyed then how are you talking to me right now?"

And then he saw him, well a giant holographic image of him, Time Baby.

"I am not directly talking to you, but as part of the race of time giants I am able to see into the future. I saw all the questions you would ask me." Time baby answered

"Ok this makes no sense to me. Why did you pick me to stop Bill couldn't Great Uncle Ford do that. He would be a much better choice than me. And even if you wanted me why isn't Mabel here with me." Dipper questioned

"I picked you because you have defeated Bill three times now. We could have very easily picked Stanford, but he would still be stuck behind the portal, and by the time he would come back out again, the timeline would be set in motion. As for why Mabel is not here, only one word can describe that. Glitter. If we brought her here, there would be so much glitter everywhere. And I mean EVERYWHERE."

"Ok. So what do you need me to do?"

"You must stop Weirdmageddon from ever happening otherwise my death is inevitable. You will retain all your knowledge of the previous timeline so that you can fix it. You are allowed to tell people about what is happening, but they may think you're crazy."

"Ok when do I start."

"Right now! Good luck Dipper Pines, you are the world's only hope."

Another portal suddenly opened in front of him and sucked him in, and he was falling again. And then nothing it was pitch black.

'Oh no did something go wrong. Did I go too far back!'

"Hey Dipper we're here. Wake up sleepyhead."

"Huh what?"

"We just passed the Gravity Falls sign can you believe it. One whole summer away from home. *gasp* Do you think I'll find the one."

"Probably not. You would have a much better chance at finding a bunch of gnomes disguised as a teenager."

"That sounded very specific."

"Uh… Hypothetically if gnomes existed, which they don't because that would be stupid."

"You're acting very strange Dipper. Stranger than normal."

"I'm not acting strange at all. You're acting strange! Hey look we're here."

"Yay. But don't think for a second that I don't have my eye on you."


"Hey kids I'm your Great Uncle Stan, But you can call me Grunkle Stan. It saves time and we all know time is money."

"Grunkle! It sounds so cute and adorable. Oh I am so making you a sweater with that on it." Mabel declared

"It's nice to finally meet you Grunkle Stanley."

"Uh kid it's Stanford. Stanley was my brother who died in a car crash thirty years ago." Stan explained

"Oh it's so sad. Tell us the story, please." Mabel pleaded

"Uh maybe another time. In the meantime why don't we get you two settled in." Stan said

They then entered the house. "Your room is upstairs. Only rule here is don't enter my room or office."

"Ok Grunkle Stan!" They both said at the same time.

A few minutes later Dipper came running down the stairs yelling, "I'mgoingouttothewoodsbebacksoonbye!"

"Don't get eaten by a wolf!" Grunkle Stan yelled back


Dipper is out in the woods pounding on every tree he passes.

Thump thump thump.

"Come on where is it."

Thump thump clang thump

"Wait a second!" He walks back to the previous tree and pounds on it again *clang* "This is it I found it!"

He opened up the secret compartment and flipped the switch revealing journal number 3 behind him.

"Yes I found it. Now all I have to do is show this to Grunkle Stan and get Great Uncle Ford back!"


"Grunkle Stan I have something to show you!"

"Quiet kid I'm watching my new favorite soap opera. You're sister just got a boyfriend and it's getting good."

"Boyfriend? Oh no the gnomes!"

"Wait what?"

"I'll explain everything later, right now we have to save Mabel before she marries the gnomes."

"That's all you have to say. Let's get them." Stan puts on a pair of brass knuckles and goes outside.

"HEY KNUCKLEHEADES. Get away from my niece!"

"Grunkle Stan you're embarrassing me."

Stan then proceeds to punch the face of Norman causing Jeff to fall off.

"He figured us out run!" Jeff says scared

"Schembulock"

"What just happened?" Mabel questioned

"Ask your brother over there." Stan says pointing to Dipper.

"Hey that was just a wild guess, I had nothing to do with it" Dipper said defensively

"Sure." Mabel said skeptically


Dipper had gone downstairs to get some water before bed, but when he saw Stan walking around with a lantern he hid.

'What is he up to?' He thought

He then saw Stan walk into the gift shop. He waited until he didn't see any more light, and then followed. He got there just in time to see the vending machine click into place.

'Of course the portal. I have to help him.'

And so Dipper entered the code and entered the secret passageway.


Cliffhanger. I was going to give you guys this chapter before I left but I got busy and couldn't finish it. I will try to update twice a week but that may change. Until next time BYEEEE!
