Chapter 15
School felt really empty. The hallways were quiet and so was the Cafeteria. Matt and Shinji looked around, and realized that there was a lot of empty tables.
"This has got to do with the missing kids." Said Shinji.
"Could be. Or maybe some kids stayed home. Parents are like that." Said Matt.
"Aren't you worried we could be next?" asked Shinji.
"A little. That's why I have a pepper spray can in my pocket and Tyrone is picking us up." Said Matt.
"Your brother? That's cool." Replied Shinji.
"I hope she's okay." Said Matt.
Shinji looked at Matt suddenly as if he said something offensive. "She? Whose She?" asked Shinji.
Matt shut his mouth, but Shinji smiled mischievously. "Your talking about someone. Who is she? Do I know her?" asked Shinji.
"Maybe." Replied Matt. Shinji smiled and patted Matt's head. "Is it the girl from Science Class?" asked Shinji.
"No. It's the one with the red hair." Said Matt.
"Lucy? You like Lucy? Man, that girl is such a tomboy!" said Shinji. Matt looked at Shinji curiously.
"How much do you know of her?" asked Matt.
"She's into a lot of manly things. I hear she spends time in the gym working out, and that she knows how to throw a punch." Said Shinji.
"She sounds bad ass." Said Matt.
"Oh yeah. She's tough. And fast when it comes to the track meet." Said Shinji.
Matt looked around the cafeteria to see a glimpse of Lucy. She was not around. "You don't think she's one of the missing kids." Said Matt.
"I really don't know. She could be." Said Shinji sadly.
"We both need to be careful man. I don't know when Dipper and Mabel are coming back with the sword to stop the witch." Said Matt.
"Yeah you told me about that. Well, they better." Said Shinji.
"You don't believe me do you?" said Matt looking at his only friend.
"Dude. This is Gravity Falls. Anything could happen." Replied Shinji.
