Gravity Falls hospital, 1:00AM
Pacifica and Dipper were at the hospital going for an ultrasound since Pacifica was showing some signs of pregnancy.
"Can't you believe it?" Dipper asked his girlfriend. "We could be parents."
"I mean, what now?" Pacifica asked in excitement. "Do we, do we get married?"
"We're only twenty and twenty-one respectively, let's think about this for a bit." Dipper replied.
Just then, a woman with short hair ginger hair and glasses walked in, putting her gloves on. "Ooookay, let's check this baby out." The Doctor known as Doctor Terrace declared. "Lift up your shirt."
Pacifica lifted her shirt to reveal her stomach which still looked a bit flat, like she hadn't been pregnant for long at all.
"So, how long have you been showing signs of pregnancy?" Dr Terrace asked.
"Around four weeks."
"One month on." Dana nodded her head as she wrote on her clipboard. "Not bad. Not bad. Okay, let's check the sucker who could have a good life or a bad life." The couple laughed at the doctor's joke as she began to rub the gel on Pacifica's stomach. "That wasn't a joke. It's a possibility that child could have a bad life despite how good their parents raise them. Which could lead to a life of crime, death, punishment or worse….Becoming a studio executive." Dipper and Pacifica stared at the doctor in discomfort. "I've always had a bleak sense of humour. Which could explain my lack of friends. Okay, let's begin."
The doctor began to move the ultrasound stick around Pacifica's stomach while the expecting mother held her boyfriend's hand. It was such a big moment that she was getting kind of emotional about it.
"I can't believe we're having a baby." Dipper said.
"Me neither." Pacifica responded.
"What do you think they'll be?" Dipper asked.
"Hopefully something we can love regardless." Pacifica said. "I mean, I wouldn't care if if they waste their life being a surfer."
"Or waste their life being a lawyer." Dipper said.
"Or with one eye."
"Or without a scent."
"Or an ugly goblin creature." Dr Terrace said.
"Or that strange description." Dipper said.
"No, your baby is an ugly goblin creature." Dr Terrace said.
"Hey! It may still be developing but call my baby an ugly goblin creature and I'll sue you!" Pacifica yelled.
"I'm really not meaning it as a super cruel insult, your baby literally looks like an ugly baby goblin!" Dr Terrace showed the couple the screen and to Pacifica's horror, the baby that is inside her wasn't at all human, it was a strange goblin creature.
The goblin creature look to the direction of the screen and mouthed 'Granem' before beginning to move about inside her.
Pacifica felt the strange movements and began to see that her stomach began stretching upwards like whatever was inside her, was trying to get out of her. She screamed in pain and fear while Dipper began to panic while Dr Terrace was on the phone.
"HELLO! I HAVE A PATIENT WITH AN ALIEN INSIDE!…NO NOT IN THE CHEST, THE STOMACH! I SWEAR I AM NOT LOSING MY MIND! GET A SURGEON, GET THE FBI, GET SOMEONE, THEY'RE COMING FOR YOU!"
Pacifica continued to scream as her stomach continued to stretch upwards like it was about to be torn open.
But then, Pacifica shot out of bed sweating like crazy while an annoying siren was going on outside. Specifically, what sounded like a police siren.
"Pacifica! Pacifica!" Ford shouted. "Pacifica, Hunter, wake up!"
Pacifica looked around her bedroom area and realised that she wasn't at the doctor's getting a checkup with Dipper. She was in her room without Dipper by her side and with Hunter sleeping in the guest room.
She got out of her bed and looked at her clock to see it was 1:02 AM. Not exactly the perfect time to be waking up. But that dream bothered her so she lifted up her shirt and began to feel her stomach for anything weird. But all she felt were her guts and other organs that resided, no strange goblin creature or baby.
"PACIFICA! You kids better be awake!" Stan yelled.
Pacifica walked to the window and narrowed her eyes at the old men. "What the heck are you two doing out?!"
"Three!" Wendy yelled from the truck they arrived in. "I'm here as well."
"What the heck are you doing?!" Pacifica yelled. "It's one in the morning!"
"Pacifica…" Ford turned off a siren that Stan had in his hand. "….We're going to L.A."
"And you need us, why?" Pacifica asked.
"Well, I figured you wish to see Dipper again, right?"
"I do, but I have work." Pacifica pointed out.
"Don't worry, I convinced Susan in my own special way." Stan assured Pacifica while grinning.
In a flashback, Stan was outside Greasy's Diner handing Lazy Susan a ginormous box. "Susan, I'll give you this huge box of kittens if you allow Pacifica to have time off until she gets back."
"Sounds like the fairest bribe I've accepted." Lazy Susan said.
End of flashback.
Hunter walked out of the guest bedroom and into Pacifica's in his own pair of pyjamas to see what was going on. "What was that ringing? Was it my headache or something else?"
"Kid, we need you to come L.A." Ford declared.
"Why?" Hunter asked.
"It's Luz." Ford replied. "She has powers."
Hunter raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Uh….She uses glyphs. They aren't technically powers."
"Her magic doesn't work on Earth." Ford pointed out. "But somehow, she has powers. Literally."
Hunter didn't know what to say about this but he was curious about it and wondering if they were similar to Sasha's?
"Take the cats back from Susan." Pacifica requested. "Ford, as much as I love to come, I have to protect Hunter." I mean, I feel he…"
"I'll go." Hunter declared.
Pacifica was shocked about it. She stared at her brother like figure with a concerned look. "Hunter, you're still hurting. Are you sure you wish to do this?"
"I wanna help them out." Hunter said. "Especially Luz, Amity and Sasha. I feel I need to make it up to them after everything I've done. So, I wish to help them in anyway I can."
Pacifica sighed. "You sure, kid?"
Hunter nodded. "Yeah. But, since you wish to protect me, you can come. Let's not forget, you do have a boyfriend."
Pacifica then smiled. "Okay kid, you win. Get dressed."
About 28 minutes later, Pacifica was dressed in a purple shirt along with some purple shoes and purple pants. While Hunter was dressed in a red shirt, beige pants and purple shoes with Flapjack following. They got in the truck where they both sat in the back with Stan. Ford was on the passenger seat, analysing DNA samples while Wendy was in the driver's seat.
"You three got your seatbelts on?" Wendy asked. "Stan, you do have yours on, right?"
"Okay, just in case we don't get chased, I'll put it on." Stan sighed.
"What about Soos, is he coming?" Pacifica asked. "Because remember what happened last time when he was shack alone?"
"He has Melody he'll be fine." Wendy assured her.
But in actuality, Soos was in the Mystery Shack gift shop, all on his own. "Uh…..Hello? Is anyone else here?! Melody has gone to visit her parents while Abuelita has gone to the hospital!" But there was silence. "Uh…..Should I like place elaborate booby traps to keep out robbers?" There was still no response. "I'll start placing elaborate traps to keep out robbers."
Back in the truck, Ford turned to Hunter. "Oh Hunter, I did some fooling around with my tech and your DNA and I might have figured out what you could be."
"I know I could be a Grimwalker." Hunter said. "But my question is, what am I made of? Am I really a clone of a dead human?"
"Actually, your DNA has three splices." Ford informed the boy. "One part of you is human, the other part I can only assume is witch but the third is wood." Hunter and Pacifica were both surprised by this revelation.
"Wood?" Hunter reacted.
"Aww! I was going to use these matches!" Stan threw the box out of the window.
"I don't feel like wood." Hunter said. "I feel like flesh and blood."
Stan began poking at his face just to be sure. "You feel like flesh and blood, but give me a splinter and I'll start to have my doubts."
"Flapjack, did you know I was made of wood?" Flapjack tweeted. "I guess you don't know much about Grimwalking, huh? So, if Caleb is my clone then I wonder what happened to this Marie Clawthorne and her baby?" Flapjack tweeted. "The Owl Lady?"
"Crazy Owl Lady is related to a witch?" Wendy reacted. "Guess that explains her."
"No, not this Crazy Owl Lady." Hunter said. "The Owl Lady from the Demon Realm. A thorn in Emperor Belos' side for as long as a I can remember. She refused to be a part of his Coven even after she got cursed with a curse that had her turn into an owl beast. She has a grey puffy hair, a golden fang and pale skin."
"That sounds like my ex wife, Marilyn." Stan said. "Good thing I won't be hearing from her forever."
Hunter then had a realisation. "No, wait? No! What if I am related to the Owl Lady somehow? What does that make me to Edalyn? What if I…"
"Hunter…" Pacifica placed her hand on his shoulder. "…don't overthink it. You'll figure it out someday. I promise you."
"I hope I do." Hunter said. "Because the mystery of who I am still looms. So, about those powers Ford, how would you describe them?"
"Well, I saw news footage and she was glowing green, her irises turned green, she had this whole green energy surrounding her and she uppercut a bald man straight into the sky."
"Malsacc." Hunter sighed. "Well, least he's dead." He then shook his head. "Wait, that sounds similar to what Sasha had."
"It's not just Sasha or Luz who has those powers, but Anne as well." Ford informed him.
Hunter began to ponder the idea of those three human girls having powers. He saw Sasha's in action, he didn't see Anne's and he didn't see Luz's. But from what Ford described of Luz's and what he's seen of Sasha's, it was giving him some kind of hope. With the power of them three combined, they could defeat Belos.
"With them three having those powers, it could mean one thing." Hunter said.
"What is it?" Pacifica asked.
Hunter gave one of his rare genuine smiles. "Hope. I have hope."
While Hunter was daydreaming his uncle's demise, the truck windshield was suddenly hit by an owl, causing Wendy to make the vehicle screech to a halt.
"Aww man." Wendy poked her head out of the window. "Sorry Crazy Owl Lady!"
