Authors note: So in this chapter, there's more stuff going on outside of Gravity Falls instead of inside. I 'll still focus on the good old G-Squad and their little adventures, but also more on what goes on outside the town of Gravity Falls, because shit is going down, son! Other than that, I hope you enjoy the new chapter, its shorter than usual, but still sweet.
Chapter 8: More to Come
O-O-O
William was now driving down a highway, now humming to some old music from the 1940's on the old tape he played.
"I have to admit, for an old geezer he has some pretty good taste in music." Said Will, now taking both his hands off the car wheel to snap his fingers to the classy tune. "Oh yeah, my jam!"
While William was too busy practically dancing to his classic tune, he let the car out of control, as it started to turn to the left into another car passing through, which hit its brakes and honked loudly at William to move, who just slightly turned the wheel right to scratch the other car greatly as it stopped close by Will's car, which had also stopped as well since he hit the brakes.
"Now that was exciting!" Said Will happily, as he saw the driver from the other car get out from his side mirror. "Note to self, don't wear a seatbelt for maximum effect."
William then got out of his car to face the other driver, who was angrily walking towards him.
"What the hell man? You almost hit me and scratched my car!" Shouted the driver angrily, "Can't you see where you're going?"
"Now that's just mean, sir. Just because I lack 20/20 vision doesn't mean I can't see where I'm going." Said William, pointing at his eye patch. "I just chose not to see where I was going."
"So you chose to try to crash into my car?!" Shouted the man angrily, infuriated that his car was scratched. "I just got this car too!"
"Well, sucks to be you pal." Said William, as he quickly glanced his eye over to his right to see something coming at them. "Really sucks to be you."
William then walked back to his car, while the man dialed his cellphone to get his insurance company and then a tow truck.
"I wouldn't worry about that." Said William, looking at the side mirror to see the man dial the number. "It's the giant mantis coming your way that I would run from. And maybe your anger issues."
William then started his car again, while the man shouted at William again, failing to notice the giant green praying mantis flying towards him. "I know your license number! I'm gonna sue your-
Before the man could finish his sentence, the mantis landed right on top of the shouting man's car, crushing it while William began to drive away from the giant bug, as it set its eyes on the screaming man, horrified by the mantis's sudden appearance. William looked at his side mirror to see the man's last moments, as he was flipped up in the air by the mantis's mouth and eaten alive by the bug, making William laugh at the sight.
"Now that's karma." Said Will happily, as he continued to listen to his old music, while the mantis flew away to search for more prey to feast on, with its smaller mantis mate flying close behind. "Maybe getting eaten by a mantis and being slowly digested is a little much, but who am I to complain?"
William just drove onward, as if the man getting eaten never happened while humming the old tune, not having a single care in the world.
"Besides, I know worse things than that!" Sang William to himself, who actually sang very well, along with whatever he knew would happen soon in song. "I always know worse things than that!"
"The rise of Kajiu is beginning now!"
"But there's also a few more to wake up!"
"I'll need some help not too far now."
"Then my fun will soon begiiiiiiin! Spoilers!"
O-O-O
The rest of the day had been surprisingly calm for the Mystery Shack crew, they either spent the rest of their day with their Kajiu, walking around the town to get more proper introductions to everyone again such as Lazy Susan at the diner, hanging out with Wendy's friends for a while and telling them about the Kajiu, and pretty much just catching up with the rest of the townsfolk for the whole day until it was about ten o clock.
The G-Squad, which they had now accepted as their new team name, met back up in the Mystery Shack like yesterday, after a long day of Kajiu combat, meeting friends, and learning Godzilla's origins, all they needed now was rest for tomorrow, which wasn't going to be a fun day to work since the G-Squad had overtime.
"Oh man! Today was certainly something." Said Dipper, exhausted but glad at the same time.
"Only two days and we already found out a lot of mystery junk." Said Mabel, agreeing with her brother. "A new record."
"I kind of hope this keeps up." Said Wendy smiling "Saving a town from hungry bugs was pretty exciting."
"The life of the G-Squad. Fighting Kajiu by day and asleep by night." Said Soos proudly. "Seriously, we're like superheroes."
"Okay, maybe not superheroes." Said Dipper. "It's not like we're saving the world, it's our Kajiu that do that for us."
The G-Squad then looked at their Kajiu, clearly seeing that they were just as exhausted as they are, all wanting to go to bed like their caretakers.
"I don't know, Dipper. They can share some of the glory with us." Said Wendy, turning to Rodan to ask him something. "You'll share with us, right?"
Rodan squawked back in response, but at the same time opened his beak wide as if he was yawning, making Wendy do the same thing.
"See? They'll share."
Dipper just shook his head at the red head, with the fairies still stood on Mabel's shoulder, and couldn't help themselves but feel happy with the humans and Kajiu, since they were having a good time as well with their new human friends and meeting the strange townsfolk, it was the most fun the twin fairies had since well, ever, they never had a chance to truly have fun and have actual friends, it was a change they enjoyed.
After realizing what time it was, Soos decided to call it a day and told Anguirus it was time to go as he got inside his truck.
"Well, I got to go dudes. My grandma is waiting for me." Said Soos, as he waved goodbye to his friends.
Soos then backed up, with Anguirus deciding he should follow Soos in a more creative way, so when the handyman drove off, Anguirus used the trick he learned during the day with Mothra to curl up into a ball and roll away with Soos as his own method of transportation.
"They learn so fast." Said Mabel, amazed at Anguirus's quick method of learning how to get around more easily.
Rodan just squawked at the sight like it was nothing, while Godzilla grunted at the Pteranodon to see if he can do better, which he responded by flapping his wings and flying in the air, doing a quick barrel roll in the air before landing back swiftly, while Godzilla just gave Rodan a look of jealousy since he couldn't fly himself, and instead let out a small burst of his atomic breath in the air, also making Rodan jealous of Godzilla, while Mothra just looked at the two Kajiu with Mabel walking next to her.
"Boys. Am I right or what?" Said Mabel, making Mothra chirp in agreement.
"They sure like to compete a lot." Said Wendy, looking at Godzilla and Rodan show off.
"Yeah, but at least we-
Before Dipper could finish his sentence, he felt something crawl on his head, and took off hat to see that there was a large roach on his hat, which made him scream in a high pitch voice, getting everyone's attention.
"AHHHH! Scary bug! Kill it!" Panicked Dipper, dropping down on the ground as Mabel started to laugh hard, also falling on the ground as the fairies managed to jump on Mothra just in time as Mabel doubled over on the ground laughing, making Mothra confused to what was going on while Godzilla and Rodan began roaring and squawking on one another, as if they're talking about who's caretaker was better.
"It's okay, dude. Just a prank." Said Wendy, being the only one not laughing as she flicked the roach away, as it crawled off into the woods. "I told you I was going to get you back."
"Oh jeez, I almost had a heart attack. Oh, the horror." Said Dipper, with Wendy helping the boy get up and help him calm down.
"Hey, at least I didn't make you eat it." Said Wendy, saying that it could have been worse, which made Dipper chuckle a little.
"True." Agreed Dipper, now a little more calmer while Mabel calmed herself down too, as she got up to wipe the tears from her face.
"Oh man, hehe, that was, *snicker* that was great." Said Mabel, still stifling a few giggles, while Mothra just stood confused.
Dipper just shook his head. "So much for getting good dreams today, but I did make fun of you in the morning, so I had it coming."
Wendy just scratched her head out of guilt, until she smiled and knew exactly how to make up for it. "Well, I feel bad for doing that to you. So I know how to make up for it. You have a cellphone?"
Dipper nodded and took out a small cellphone, similar to Wendy's flip phone as she took it from Dipper and dialed some numbers in the phone.
"What are you doing?" Asked Dipper, who then got his phone back to look at what Wendy put in the phone, which to his joyful surprise was Wendy's cellphone number on the screen in his contacts list.
"Giving you my number, dork." Said Wendy, smiling at Dipper. "I forgot to give it to you yesterday, so we can keep in touch now."
Dipper was overexcited, he didn't think he could ever get Wendy's phone number, he felt like jumping out of sheer joy but he kept it to himself knowing that doing that would just embarrass himself in front of Wendy, but he felt like he had to express himself somehow.
"Yes!" Exclaimed Dipper happily, making Dipper blush at what he said and cleared his throat, trying to act cool. "I mean, thanks."
Wendy just chuckled at Dipper's excitement. "No problem, dude."
Rodan then squawked at Wendy, wanting to go home now.
"Yeah, me to buddy." Said Wendy, as she went to get her bike and pedal away with Rodan flying close by, but not before saying her goodbyes.
"Give me a call in ten minutes to see if it works." Said Wendy, waving goodbye to the twins. "See you guys tomorrow."
Wendy then pedaled away with Rodan flying close behind, while Dipper waved at the red head goodbye rapidly.
"Later Wendy! Haha, good times." Said Dipper nervously, while Mabel went up to Dipper ecstatically.
"Oh My Gosh!" Said Mabel, excited at Dipper's reaction.
"What?" Asked Dipper.
"You like Wendy again, don't you?" Said Mabel, with Dipper just blushing in response, but Mabel was quick enough to spot the red face and squealed with joy. "You DO like her again! I knew it! I knew it! I knew it!"
Dipper then put his hands on Mabel's shoulders to calm her down, since she was literally jumping with joy at the realization.
"No! We're just friends, that's all. I mean sure, I still think she's cute and got really excited when I got her number but… Okay yeah, I like her again." Said Dipper, admitting to Mabel who was still excited at the mere prospect of romance. "But she doesn't see me like that, Mabel."
Mabel just looked at Dipper slyly. "I don't know about that, Dipping sauce. It's been two years since you've seen her, things can change. And she was very happy to see you."
Dipper then pretended to yawn loudly, not wanting to speak of this any longer. "Oh, look at the time, just soooooo exhausted. We should get to bed soon."
Dipper then rushed inside the Shack, saying goodnight to the other two Kajiu outside as he went inside, while Mabel did the same as she went inside as well, with Godzilla snorting as if it was a scoff because of the human romance concept, while Mothra chirped at the dinosaur as if she thought it was cute, which just made the dinosaur walk away to sleep off the day, not really interested in romance unless romance meant eating food and blasting away any opposing Kajiu to show his strength. Mothra just crawled along to sleep as well, knowing that she'll never understand males.
The twins, now inside the Mystery Shack, went upstairs to get ready for bed, while they met up with Grunkle Stan in the hallway, who just came out of his room, with red eyes and a tearstained face, causing concern for the twins and the fairies.
"Grunkle Stan? Are you okay?" Asked Mabel softly, which made Stan clear his throat.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Just got sweat in my eyes." Said Stan, wiping away a tear from his face. "How'd your day go?"
"Dipper got Wendy's number." Said Mabel, making Dipper shove his sister's arm from saying that.
That statement actually made Stan smile and put his hand on the boy's shoulder, at least something good happened to him today. "You did? You really did come back as a man."
"Stan, really?" Asked Dipper, embarrassed at the statement. "It's just a number."
"Just a number? Kid, it's the first step." Said Stan, actually proud of the boy. "Just don't rush it too soon, or we'll end up having another mouth to feed."
"Stan!" Said Dipper, now really embarrassed at what Stan implied as he chuckled.
"Just a joke, kid. I thought you had a sense of humor." Said Stan, as he patted him on the shoulder. "Now get to bed you little gremlins. You still have a long week, and I'll actually make breakfast too."
The twins smiled at Stan, as they prepared to go to bed until they stopped to feel something, something shaking.
"Do you feel that?" Asked Dipper, as everyone started to have a concerned look on their face as they felt the shaking.
It wasn't an earthquake, but they felt like tremors instead, as they suddenly stopped and went constantly, making everyone concerned about the shaking ground, even the Kajiu outside felt the tremors and felt that something was wrong, because whatever was causing these tremors, they knew one thing for sure
It wasn't normal.
O-O-O
The source of these tremors came from the cave in the outskirts, but the cave only caused tremors at Gravity Falls, for loud rumbling could be heard from the cave, the ground shook as if an earthquake was occurring, making several smaller Kajiu panic out of the cave, such as more Meganulon, who's numbers seemed to be endless as they spread out from the cave with more new larger Kajiu leaving, such as some kind of thirty meter four legged reptile with brownish purple skin, appearing to have a similar face to a lion and has large ears with a horn on its head, and some kind of large fifty meter monitor lizard with rows of spikes on his back and membranes between its legs, which it uses to glide away from the rumbling cave like a flying squirrel.
However, the rumbling is powerful enough to wake Kajiu that are even deeper in the cave, Kajiu that are thousands of feet deep underground the deep waters of the cave, the large lake in the cavern where Godzilla and his Kajiu friends slept was the one of many lakes that led into some sort of underground ocean of sorts, where the rumbling inside the cave would make even more residents wake from their slumber, and many of them did.
Such as a sea serpent about one hundred fifty meters long, that resembles the appearance of a Chinese dragon, which has four legs, multiple horns on its head all the way down its tail, and two barbs coming from its face. Another Kajiu was a sixty meter aquatic dinosaur, which could stand upright and has more similarities to a spinosaurus with a crocodile like snout and a sail like fin on the dorsal side of its back, it also has a large fin on its tail as well and a rather long neck. Yet another Kajiu awakened from the rumbling was a sixty meter squid, with large red eyes and several constricting tentacles. The last Kajiu to awaken from the rumbling was a fifty meter giant red lobster, with a giant nose like shell piece and two large pincer claws, one claw bigger than the other.
The aquatic Kajiu, now awoken from their deep slumber, are now ready to leave their underground ocean like homes to go out into the surface world, separating and swimming into several large holes that they could fit through that led to the seas and oceans that awaited their return.
O-O-O
The activity of the tremors were not easily overlooked however, mostly because unknown to the people of the U.S. was a secret government facility in the middle of the woods, within the region of Oregon state.
These tremors were detected on a large computer screen someone was staring at that got everyone in the control room's attention, which showed several images of virtual codes and data streaming every second, until the computer showed a screen pop up red in an urgent manner.
One of the men looking at the computer screen then called out to someone worryingly.
"Sir! We found something!" Said the man urgently, getting the attention of a man in a black suit and made him walk towards the man calling out to him.
"What is it?" Asked the man, wanting to see what was wrong.
"We've detected seismic activity in our region." Said the man, pointing to the large computer screen.
The man in black looked the screen in great interest, as the smaller screen expanded to show a virtual graph, showing the strange seismic activity.
"Where's the source coming from?" Asked the man in black, which made the man he was talking to find the source in a matter of seconds
"Pinpointing location now." Said the man, until he got his results, as the screen showed a virtual map of Oregon, and showed a blinking red dot, not far from Gravity Falls.
"Gravity Falls." Said the man in black, not surprised from the result. "Even now, it still has something going on."
"Close by Gravity Falls, sir. Right at the outskirts." Corrected the man who pinpointed the location.
The agent eyed the seismic graph carefully, noticing that the activity was unusual for an ordinary earthquake, something was wrong.
"Sir! We have more urgent news!" Called out someone from behind the entrance of the control room, another man in black who ran up to give a file to his fellow agent. "You'll want to see this."
Opening the file, there was a whole report of an incident involving two cars briefly stopping after a traffic accident. One of the cars escaped while the other was crushed by something along with its driver missing, what shocked the agent was the clear image of the cause, which was a giant praying mantis flying.
"Sir?" Asked the agent who gave him the file.
"Send this to central command. We have a problem. A big one." Ordered the agent, before making one last order. "And send in a team ahead of time to investigate the source of the signal."
The other agent saluted and proceeded to follow his orders and exited the control room, while the agent who still had the file looked back at the large computer screen in fear and shock, silently talking to himself at the realization.
"They're back."
