Chapter 3
4th of July and the Storm.
Before they knew it it's July 4th. Today Stan and Ford are taking the kids to the lake. For a fourth of July cook out. Right now Stan and Ford are packing the trunk of the Stanmobel. With everything that they needed. Dipper, Mabel, and Yumi are packing their backpacks for the day. Soon they are all ready to go. They got in to the Stanmobel and Stanley. Drove to the lake with everyone excited for the day. An hour later they arrived at the got out and helped unpack the Stanley parked in a good spot. There are trees for shade, the beach to play in the sand, and of course the lake to swim and fish.
They unpacked then they got changed. Dipper is now wearing a sleeveless white shirt and blue swim trunks. Mabel is now wearing a rainbow colored swimsuit and black shorts. Yumi is now wearing a black, light blue, and purple swimsuit and grey shorts. Stanley is now wearing a white sleeveless shirt and dark blue shorts. And Ford is now wearing a light grey short sleeve shirt and black swim trunks. Ford doesn't like showing off to much skin. Because of his scars that he has from traveling the dimensions. Yumi has scars from traveling the dimensions also. And she is wearing a swimsuit and shorts. Now the family is helping each other put on sunscreen. Ten minutes later everyone has sunscreen on.
Dipper, Mabel, and Yumi grabbed some shovels and headed to the sand. Ford and Stanley sat in the shade. And watched as the three teenagers built a sand castle. Ford chuckled and asked "Remember when I used to bury you up to your head in the sand?"
"Yeah I do I'd let you do it to cheer you up. Especially if you were having a bad day." replied Stanley.
Ford chuckled again and said "Yup you would but I think we're to old for that now." Two hours later Dipper, Mabel, and Yumi Have built an awesome sand castle. They have gotten warm. So Mabel and Yumi took off their shorts. Then they went into the water. Dipper took off his shirt and went into the water also. They swam out a bit and yelled "Come on you two join us! The water's great!"
"We're fine for right now!" Ford yelled back
As the day wore on Stan and Ford set up the grill to cook some food. They have hamburgers and hot dogs to cook. Cold drinks, chips, dip, and pasta salad. Soon the hot dogs and hamburgers are done cooking.
"Hey kids come and get it!" yelled Stanley
Dipper, Mabel, and Yumi got out of the water. Then they ran up to the picnic table. Everyone grabbed what they wanted then sat down to eat. While the ate they talked. There is a question that Ford wants to ask Yumi. But he's afraid to ask because. He's afraid of what Yumi might say.
"Yumi my dear at the end the summer. Do you want to stay here? Or go back to Japan?" asked Ford
"Well... I want to stay here. Yeah I enjoyed reconnecting with my family. But it didn't feel like home. Ever since I've been back here in Gravity Falls. I've felt at home." replied Yumi
Ford smiled and said "Then I'll get a hold of your mother. And ask her to have your school records to be transferred to Gravity Falls High." After eating they cleaned up. They played gamed and talked until dark. Then they sat together and watched the fireworks. After the fireworks they packed up the Stanmobel. Ford can see better in the dark so he drove home. Once at home they unpacked the car. Then they all went to bed. In the morning after breakfast. Ford sent an email to Akiko it read.
Dear Akiko
Yumi wants to stay here in Gravity Falls. So could you have her school transfer her record to Gravity Falls High? Thank you have a nice day Ford.
Two weeks have passed and Dipper and Yumi. Are out exploring the woods. Ford is spending time with Mabel by scrap booking with her. And Stanley and Soos have opened the Mystery Shack for the day. What started out as a warm sunny day. Is now turning cloudy and ominous. Deep in the woods Dipper and Yumi have noticed the clouds. They had checked the weather forecast before leaving. And it said sunny with a few passing clouds. But these clouds don't look to friendly. But they wind picked up so Yumi and Dipper. Thought the clouds would just pass by. Back at the shack Stanley noticed the clouds also. So he went into the living room and turned on the TV.
He turned it to the weather channel. His eyes went wide when he saw. That there is a severe thunder storm warning for Gravity Falls. And the radar is showing a large storm heading their way. Stanley stood up and yelled "Sixer close the windows there's a storm coming!" Ford got up from the kitchen table and started closing windows. Stanley and Soos closed up shop. Then Soos headed home to prepare for the storm. Mabel sent a text to Dipper and Yumi. To let the know about the storm. But they are so deep in the woods. That their phones aren't getting a good signal. Suddenly Yumi and Dipper heard a clap of thunder.
They grabbed their bags and ran toward the shack. Just then the sky opened up and wind picked up even more. As Yumi and Dipper ran through the woods they are getting drenched. Lightning streaked across the sky and rain fell harder. Halfway to the shack Yumi and Dipper. Can feel something hard and cold hitting them. They looked and it's hail and it's the size of a ping pong ball. Soon they can see a ditch and got into it. Yumi got into her bag and got out her hammock. She covered herself and Dipper with the large piece of fabric. They are still getting wet. But now they are protected from getting hit by the hail.
Back at the shack Ford, Mabel, and Stanley are in the living room. All three of them are worried about Yumi and Dipper. Thirty minutes later the storm is starting to subside. The hail has stopped and the rain isn't as heavy. Yumi and Dipper uncovered themselves and continued on their way to the shack. Once back at the shack Yumi left her hammock on the porch. Dipper and Yumi went into the house section of the shack. They didn't want to go much further. Considering they are soaking wet. Just then they heard footsteps coming toward them. They watched as Ford came into the room. The concern on his face turn to relief.
"Yumi my sweet heart Dipper my boy are you two ok?" asked Ford
"We're soaking wet and possibly bruised but other wise fine."started Dipper
"Stanley could you bring some towels? So Yumi and Dipper can dry off." asked Ford
While they waited for Stan Yumi and Dipper took of their sneakers and socks. Soon Stanley come into the room. He gave Yumi and Dipper a towel. The two teens started drying off. Just then Mabel came into the room.
"Oh my God we've been been so worried about you. Are you ok?" asked Mabel
"Don't worry Mabel we're ok. We found a ditch and Yumi covered us with her hammock." assured Dipper
Ford chuckled and said "That's my girl. She's always been resourceful." Yumi and Dipper dried off enough so they can go get changed. Dipper went up to the attic. And Yumi went to Ford's study. After she got changed Yumi went back up stairs. Then she went into the living room. Ford walked up to her and gave her a hug.
"Are you sure you're ok my sweet heat?" asked Ford
Yumi hugged back and said "Yeah I'm ok Dad. I only found a few bruises." Just then Dipper came into the living room Mabel hugged her brother and asked "Are you ok Dipper dot?" Dipper hugged Mabel back and said "Yeah I'm ok Mabel." Stanley sighed and said "I'm just glad that you two are ok." A couple of more storms rolled through. Then the weather seemed to calm down.
