Chapter three: Wander in the woods.
Dipper P.O.V.
It's weird the fact that Grunkle Stan left someone stay in the Shack. He said he was doing it as a favor so he is probably going to get something out of this, I wonder who would be that person.
We finished the breakfast when I told Mabel to chat outside. "What do you think we should do? She is a complete stranger" I said glancing one window. Mabel sat on the grass plucking a flower "Come on Dipper, maybe she could be our new friend" I leaned against a tree. "That's a terrible idea, 'Trust no one' remember?" I said pointing where the journal number 3 was. "Trust no one, but what about Wendy or Candy and Grenda? They are my friends and they are from Gravity Falls"
"I don't know" I sighed trying to figure out what to do.
"Tell you what, We will befriend with her and we will see if you can trust her". She took out a hand standing up the floor.
"What do you mean by 'if I can trust her'?"
"I have a good feeling about her and she does seem like she will be a great friend" Smiled still waiting with her hand.
"I think I am going to regret this but.." I hold her hand as I close my eyes for a second, I can trust Mabel with this. I hear her steps running to the Mystery Shack. I open my eyes. What is she thinking?
We were walking through the forest. The three of us. This couldn't be weirder.
"My name's Mabel and I like sweaters" Smiled. And it turned weirder.. "Okay? though you already know, my name is Aralia and I am here to visit the town I lived when I was born" She commented oddly. Mabel stared at me and whispered "Your turn" I frowned at her but I sighed "My name is Dipper and I like mysteries"
Aralía P.O.V.
It was obvious Dipper didn't want me here, so I was going to try to be kind and go somewhere not here "Would you mind if I explore by myself? Because I am gonna slow you, so.." I try to walk a few steps away from them.
"Wait!" I turn around and see two worried faces which change in a second to smiles "You are not going to slow us down" He declared "Yeah! Come on, we got things to see this path! The opposite of that path" They were now both by my side pushing me onwards. "Are you two okay?" They sounded alarmed by something.
"What?! We are okay! It's not like we were hiding some creature from you" Mabel remarked. "What? I never said you were" I was going to look back but they stopped me. "Don't turn back!" Dipper exclaimed. I glanced at him frowning " Why not?" He stuttered a little but Mabel spoke for him "Because that's bad luck"
"I don't believe in luck" I tried again but they were holding me back tight. "Can you let me go?" I asked politely.
In the moment they did I turned around to see ... "We can explain!" "Please don't freak out" Both shouted. "Explain what? There's nothing there, What's going on with you?" I glared them crossing my arms. "Uhm.. Nothing.. We just-" "Believe in luck too much" Again, she finished his sentence.
"They are acting suspicious" I thought still. "Fine, I believe you" Relieved they sighed "But, I want you to tell me, what else is bad luck."
They flinched. Bingo.
"Putting a.. sweater the wrong way round?"Responded lowering her voice. "And?"
"Opening a umbrella in a ladder?" Dipper said hesitantly.
"Wrong. I don't believe in luck, but that doesn't mean I don't know about it" I stood serious in front of them.
None P.O.V.
"I won't beg for answers, what was behind me?" They observed each other like expecting the other to reply. "It was a.. big spider, yes, they are very common around here and we thought that you would be scared" Dipper played with his fingers as he made up a lie.
She waited for a couple seconds, analizing what he stated. "It makes sense, but don't make such a problem the next time" Aralía smiled brightly. "Wait, you forgive us?" She nodded marching a bit "Weren't we going to walk?"
A few hours later they were still in the forest but not too deep. "So.. What do you do for fun around here?" Aralía asked, walking in front of them, not knowing about their trouble.
"¡KNIT! Hum.. I do that." Mabel answered faster than his twin "And read, I read, nothing more!" She looked at them. "What do you read and knit? Only sweaters and mystery?" Taking a peek back, Dipper was rubbing his neck and Mabel had a leaf of a tree. "Yes.." Glancing around, there were a few crystals in the ground "I don't get to see things like this everyday, and they are not pieces of a broken bottle." She thought, she took one and saved it in her bag.
Aralía suddenly stopped, getting Dipper and Mabel bumped with her. "Wha- Why did you stop?" Mabel questioned her. "Don't speak too loud" She whispered showing them the back. " Why? What's wrong?" Dipper lowered his tone confused. "We've got to hide somewhere, I think there's a bear near the bushes."
Mabel grabbed their hands and took out her grappling hook, flying out the situation and near the Shack. "GRAPPLING HOOK!"
Once they landed, and unfolded their hands. They were looking each other with stunned eyes.
"That was...Awesome! You have to teach me how to use that!" Aralía was smiling at Mabel enthusiastic. "Want to try it?" Mabel smiled back to her handing the grappling hook "Can I?"
Dipper was lost in his thoughts, even to hear Mabel or Aralía go away. He was worried about the fact that the multi-bear could be out of his cave.
