Chapter 21

Matt and the other kids were watching Shinji showing off some of his moves at the local park. They were sitting on the grass, with water bottles in hand since the day was incredibly hot.

"Okay, so you do this. And then you do that!" cried Shinji as he jumped and kicked showing the kids what he knew.

"There! Easy." said Shinji smiling with pride. Everyone clapped slowly.

"I would do the same thing you did, but I'm too tired and too hot to do anything." said Ethan.

"Here here." said Owen who was wearing a white T Shirt. He looked really weird without his trade mark blue turtle neck sweater.

"You know guys, I know the Dark Master is out there doing things we don't know about. But say we take a break and do something fun." said Matt.

"Like what?" asked Ethan.

"I don't now. How about a Pool Party!" cried Matt.

"That sound refreshing." said Owen raising his hand slowly.

"I don't know guys. I like the idea, but with that man out there... I just don't feel safe." said Lucy.

"C'mon Lucy. Gravity Falls is like that. I bet just one day won't make a huge difference." said Matt.

"I beg to differ on that." said Shinji.

"Shinji is right. One minute can change everything." said Lucy.

"But we are here at the park and the Dark master isn't even attacking us." said Ethan.

"And we keep on calling his name. You know he could pop up any second." said Owen.

"Not helping." cried Shinji.

Lucy looked around in a panic and Matt smiled. "Bill Cipher!" he screamed. Nothing happened.

"You see. Bill always brags about hearing people who call him. He doesn't even show up to that." said Matt. Lucy looked at him and nodded slowly.

"If you say so. But say we plan on doing this pool party you guys want... where can we do it?" asked Lucy.

"Right, it's not like we have a pool or something." said Owen.

"It doesn't need to be a pool party. It can be at home, at the Shack. Maybe after hours." said Ethan.

"Yeah. Once the customers go, we can have one, kinda like how Grunkle Stan had his party there." said Matt.

"Oh yeah! My father went to that party and had to pay twenty dollars to get in. Good times." said Shinji.

"Twenty Dollars!? What type of a man was he?" asked Ethan.

"One of a kind. I never met him, but my father told me a lot about him. He used to work for him before he was fired." said Lucy.

"I'll buy the chips!" cried Owen.

"Ill get the drinks." said Shinji.

"And I'll get a DJ. I'm sure my Dad would love to do that." said Ethan.

"Just remember, this party is our secret. No one must know about it, not even our enemies." said Matt.

"Like obviously." said Ethan.

"Can I invite Caspar?" asked Owen.

"Sure you can! I'm sure he'll enjoy himself. Right guys?" asked Lucy.

"Caspar? Who'se that?" asked Ethan.

"He's Bill's nephew. But he's good. He wouldn't harm a fly." said Owen.

"Then it's settle. When would you guys like to party?" asked Matt with excitement.
