Irrational Treasure Part 1
Dipper, Mabel and Stan were walking down the street. Everyone was wearing old pioneer outfits and riding carriages with horses. Stan is annoyed by this because he knows that today is Pioneer Day, which he hates.
"I love what they've done with the place. Very old school." said Dipper.
"Wow. It's like we've traveled through time!" said Mabel excitedly.
"Eh, it's Pioneer Day." said Stan annoyed. "The day where everyone dresses up like idiots. If you two start talking like pioneers, I don't know you two."
"Too late!" said Dipper. "You have a heritage; honor it!"
"You know the truth; live it!" said Mabel.
"UGH! I'm gonna go find something that's not as stupid as this." said Stan leaving.
"Man, he's really got a problem with pioneers." said Dipper.
"I know! What's so bad about Pioneer Day?" said Mabel.
Suddenly, Pacific-a Northwest comes up to the Pines Twins.
"Well, if it isn't the Pines Twins. The weird muscle-head, and the silly girl." she said.
"Pacific-a." said Mabel annoyed.
"Go jump in the lake, woman." said Dipper.
"No way, muscle-brain. I'm here because you two should know that my great great uncle Nathaniel found this town." said Pacific-a.
"Like I really care about that!" said Mabel.
Suddenly, Sheriff Blubs and Deputy Dur-land walk up to the twins and Pacific-a.
"What's going on here?" asked Sheriff Blubs.
"Pacific-a is criticizing Mabel just because her uncle is the founder of the town." said Dipper.
"Because he is." said Pacific-a.
"Actually, we think that your uncle is a hoax, Pacific-a." said Deputy Dur-land. "But we don't have any proof."
"Sure ya don't. You two say that every year and you never have any proof of the real founder."
"Wait a second!" said Dipper. "I think I saw something like that in the journal."
Dipper takes out his journal and goes to a page that says,
My time in Gravity Falls has got me thinking that Nathaniel Northwest was not the founder of Gravity Falls and that his whole family is a sham. I'm not certain, but I'm absolutely sure there's a way to prove it.
"Whoa. New mystery, and a new story." said Dipper.
"Did somebody say story?" said Toby Determined who comes over. "Because I got my camera, and I'm ready to rock n roll!"
"Cool." said Dipper.
"Ooh, another adventure for the Mystery Gang! EEK!" said Mabel.
"Did someone say the word 'adventure'?" said the old man who comes over. "Because darn tooting, I want to come."
"Sure, why not? You're part of the Mystery Gang." said Dipper.
"Hold it! Hold everything!" said Pacific-a. "You all honestly think that my uncle was not the founder of Gravity Falls?" everyone looks at each other for a minute, then nod their heads at her. "Ugh, fine! I'm coming too, to prove you're all crazy and that you're all a bunch of idiots!"
"Sounds good to me." said Mabel annoyed. "Cause it's not gonna happen!"
"Okay, rolling camera." said Toby turning on his camera. "Hello, people of Gravity Falls. This is Toby Determined here with the next mystery that's gonna be solved by...THE MYSTERY GANG!" Toby makes explosion sounds. "Today's mystery is, "Who is the real founder of Gravity Falls'."
"Do you do that every time you record something?" asked Dipper.
"NO!...yes."
"Dang it, Toby." said the old man. "Anyway, first things first, we should check out Nathaniel Northwests grave."
"To the cemetery." said Dipper.
"Let's go!" said Blubs and Dur-land.
Dipper, Mabel, Sheriff Blubs, Deputy Dur-land, the old kook, Toby and Pacific-a go to the cemetery. Unbeknownst to them, however, they were being watched.
At the cemetery, the mystery gang is standing in front of the grave of Nathaniel Northwest.
"Talk about monuments." said Dipper. "I guess people really did fall for stuff like this."
"Hey, look at this!" said Mabel, with the statue of Nathaniel's finger inside her nose. "Oh, gross. Nathaniel's picking my nose!"
"Total offense, your sister's an idiot." said Pacific-a to Dipper.
"I'm used to that." said Dipper.
Suddenly, Mabel stumbles and pulls the finger down, and a hidden passage is revealed. Everyone stares in shock.
"This is amazing!" said Toby running in. "Guys with cameras first!"
"Promise me you'll be serious." said Pacific-a to Mabel.
"Oh, I can be serious!" said Mabel who accidentally pulls her nose which is still on the finger down. "Ow. Ow. Ow."
"Hey Toby! What's it like down there!?" shouted Sheriff Blubs.
"I think you guys should see this!" shouted Toby. Everyone comes down into the passage and sees a bunch of booby traps.
"Whoa." said Dipper.
"Any of you geniuses got a plan?" asked Pacific-a.
"I got one!" said Dipper. "We're gonna come into this passage, run down this rocky ramp, precision timing through the fire blasts of certain barbeque, over the small crater-sized hole full of sharp stalagmites, and land safely in that hidden room on the other side."
"That's sounds tooting do-able!" said the old kook.
"On second thought, maybe I'll just stick back and the Deputy can take the camera." said Toby a little worried.
"Too late! You're coming!" said Dipper taking Toby by the arm.
The gang runs through the booby trap course, doing everything Dipper mentioned.
"I feel like a character from National Treasure!" shouted Toby.
The gang reaches the other side of the course, with barely a few burns and cuts. They all turn to the paper on the desk at the end of the room.
"This is just like in National Treasure, where the adventurers pick up the treasure of the temple and activate the massive booby trap!" said Toby excited.
"Wait, you saw it in a movie." said Pacific-a. "How can it be any similar to this?"
"Guess we're about to find out." said Dipper walking towards the paper. He looks at it for a second, and then picks it up. "Nope. No booby traps."
"Alright, smart guy. What does it say?" asked Pacific-a, waiting for the truth to be told and for her to be right.
"It says, 'Gravity Falls was not founded by Nathaniel Northwest'." Dipper said.
"WHAT!?" shouted Pacific-a. "It can't say that!"
"Well, it does." said Dipper who gives the paper to Sheriff Blubs.
"It also says it was founded by Quentin Tremble-y, the 8 and a half president of the United States." said Sheriff Blubs.
"And there he is right now!" shouted Deputy Dur-land, pointing to a man in-cased in peanut brittle.
"That's Quentin Tremble-y?" asked Mabel. "He looks funny."
"That's because Quentin Tremble-y was the silliest president to live." said Sheriff Blubs. "We were tasked with finding him, but never did until now."
"And now that we found him, we can shift him off to a government facility." said Deputy Dur-land.
"Aw, that means I'm gonna have to burn this tape." said Toby complaining.
"Or you can just hide it until somebody asks you to post it." said Dipper.
"I still can't believe this!" shouted Pacific-a. "What else can go wrong!?"
Suddenly, a can rolls down towards the gang, and squirts out gas. Everyone starts coughing.
"Ugh, tear gas!" shouted Sheriff Blubs, weakly. "Hold your...breath!"
However, it was too late. Everyone fell to the ground and fainted. A small figure in silhouette steps towards them.
"That's right, Pines. Sleep." said the figure, who comes out of the shadows revealing himself to be...Gideon. "My revenge is just getting started!" Gideon laughs maniacally. He stops to see a small flame on his sleeve, freaks out and puts it out.
"I'm okay." he said.
End of chapter. You better watch out for Lil' Gideon! Anyway, I'm off to think of ideas for the next chapter. So until next time. Ciao, dudes.
