Hunter refused to believe that whatever he just saw was real. That was impossible. There was nothing weird about Gravity Falls. Nope. Nothing odd.

But yet, he stared down at his sister. The symbol in her arm didn't go and carve itself now did it? That was impossible. It was probably some creep hanging out in the woods. Yah; that was it, some serial killer freak was hiding out in these woods, there was no way his sister had been attacked by a blue glowing triangle with a pink bow and one eye. That was impossible.

Hunter almost believed it, he came close to settling down and deciding there was some logical explanation when Lainey opened her eyes and words he did not understand tumbled out of her lips in a voice that was not her own

"Llaf nwod nagem ees uoy no eht rehto edis."

Was that even English?Hunter couldn't even begin to identify the words let alone the language.

His sister stirred in her sleep once more and looked up at him with unseeing eyes.

"Don't trust the woman with one eye, she holds the key to end of worlds."

Lainey's blue eyes rolled back into her head and she once again passed out. This time, Hunter caught her before her head hit the ground. He held her head in his hands and tried to steady his breathing. Maybe she was just going nuts.

But maybe… she wasn't.

Hunter picked up the book and put it back into his jacket. He took a deep breath and hooked one arm under his sisters' legs and the other under her head; he lifted his sister off the ground and adjusted his cradle like hold on her with a sigh. He gave up; there was something weird going on here. But right now Hunter was focused on getting his pink haired sister back to their Aunts home.

He had some reading to catch up on.

"Yo dude! What happened to pink one?"

Hunter shrugged his shoulders and sighed.

"You didn't happen to go out into those woods did you?"

Spencer's eyes widened when he saw the symbol carved into Lainey's arm.

"MRS. PINESSS!"

Spencer dashed out of the room, screaming for his boss. Hunter decided that was none of his concern and placed his sister on the armchair. He began to roll up her sleeve to examine her wound.

Hunter couldn't help but gasp.

The wound was almost healed. How is that possible? Hunter grabbed her arm and watched in awe as the flesh wound changed to a scar, which then melted into nothing but a simple eye design left on her forearm. By the time Spencer came back to the room with Nykita in tow even the eye was gone and Hunter was staring at his sisters completely healed arm. How. The. Hell. Hunter took a deep breath and looked at Nykita who had an odd look on her face.

Nykita turned to Spencer and smirked at him unhappily,

"I thought I told you not to drag me around for no damn reason."

Spencer's mouth fell open slightly and glanced to Hunter with an odd look of confusion. Hunter shrugged back at him.

He had no idea what had just happened either.

That night Hunter lay awake for hours and hours. The hundred and two books he had brought from home to read over the summer surrounded his bed but he only had eyes for one of them. The simple leather bound book with a golden six fingered hand design on the front cover stood out like a sore thumb amongst the expertly crafted first edition paperback books around him. He knew that the second he opened the book he would never be able to go back, but Hunter also knew that if he didn't open the book he would never forgive himself.

His sister was supposed to be happy at all times even when sleeping but now he could here her moving unhappily around the bed beside him. She was having nightmares again. Hunter wondered if that had anything to do with the triangle monster he had seen in the forest.

Slowly Hunter sat up in bed and sighed deeply, here goes nothing. Hunter reached for the leather bound book and placed it on his lap.

The second he opened the book he glanced at a slip of paper that fell out of the beautifully bound book.

Hunter picked it up and stared at it, despite himself he read it aloud.

"My dear Sister, if you should ever happen to find this please be aware of the…"

Hunter turned it around expecting more but found nothing, it was almost as if he was missing half of the paper.

Can't have it all.

Hunter sighed and turned the page.

"I believe that my time in Gravity Falls has been much more productive than I had ever dreamed possible. Sadly… I know now that productivity is not always a good thing. My nightmares are falling into the real world and the end of days shall be my fault… or rather… our fault."
