Chapter 4: Long Time No Seeing Familiar Faces Pt. 2; Looking Back
After a long absence, the gang entered gift shop from the shop's entrance and glanced at the old and dusty room as it reminded them of many things that'd they done in the area in the past before moving on to bigger and better things.
"Boy, I remember this place," said Soos with the joy he always held for the shop he took his first job in. "It was even my first job and was the best job I ever had. Just coming back here, I can see that it hasn't been changed over these years."
"Yeah well, I never like this job," Wendy declared as she too noticed that place hasn't changed since she's been gone. "It was boring working here and I was too lazy to work as well. I mean what could you actually do in a place like this?"
"Yep, those were the days though." Grunkle Stan spoke with a smile etched on his aged features. "Well now that we saw the shop, let's head to the living room to visit that as well. I bet that place hasn't changed one bit as well."
Taking one last glance around the shop as memories of the aged place poured back to them, they left that area of the shack and made their way to the living room. As they entered the room, they all looked around in sort of in amazement at the place that looked as old as the gift shop that was once full of life. The room hadn't changed one bit from the television that sat in its normal place to the yellow aged couch to the same old everything. Nothing about that room had changed, no matter how much dust covered what is occupying that space, but there were three deer (It's always spelled deer whether it be singular or plural) heads mounted on the wall above the television. The deer heads looked very creepy to the participants in the living room, but not Stan as to him, they looked very real as if they were pretty much still alive and not stuffed.
"What's with the deer heads Grunkle Stan?" Dipper curiously asked as he looked directly at the taxidermied animals mounted on the wall. "They look real, really realistic like the deer that the heads belong to are still alive."
"Oh uh... I told Manly Dan to give me three deer heads." Grunkle Stan answered with hesitation. "I always wanted deer heads on my wall so he helped me out you know?"
"My father never told me that he gave you three deer heads." Wendy spoke while raising an eye brow in suspicion.
"Well... i-it was a long time ago! Probably before you were even born!" Stan immediately spoke up. "I was still in the process of making this place the Mystery Shack when I wanted those deer heads. They kind of bring a certain something to the place you know?"
Wendy gave a half hearted nod as everyone continued looking around another room that provided more memories with Dipper's eyes still glued to the deer heads. That is, until Mabel interrupted him.
"Come on Dipper, we still have more of the shack to look around." Mabel said with her normal gleeful as she held Waddles in her arms.
"I know Mabel, i-it just that... those deer heads aren't fake or feel as if they aren't." Dipper spoke as he continued looking the mounted animals straight in their glazed eyes. "Something is defiantly wrong here."
"Dipper please don't go into one of your conspiracy modes right now." Mabel commanded with a sigh of exhaustion, knowing that her brother had the tendency to over think even the smallest of things. "We just came here to look around and get a feel of a place we hadn't seen in forever."
"You know what, I'm just going to head to the attic to unpack my things." Dipper voiced, his tone still filled with a sense of uncertainty. "I'll catch up with you guys later."
From that, Dipper walked away from his fraternal twin and made his way to the stairs that lead to the attic bedroom that he and Mabel shared. The young pines then entered attic and shortly after, the bedroom where he began unpacking his things so to settle in. As he did, something on the wall on Mabel's side of the bedroom caught his attention, pulling the boy's attention away from what he was doing previously. With his eyes on the object of interest, he walked toward the wall to get a better look at what caught his attention and what he saw were strange writings that looked to be in another language, one in which he wasn't verse in. It weren't just that one wall that had the strange writings, but as the boy backed up from that one wall, he noticed that the strange language were all over the attic bedroom's walls consuming every space of the attic! Just seeing the writings, Dipper felt his pulse began to race, his palms sweating, and his pupils dilate as fear began consuming him from seeing these strange markings!
"This is not happening, this is not happening, this is not happening!" Dipper whispered to himself as he kept his eyes on the walls. The boy then closed his eyes and shook his head from side-to-side so to get the images of the writings out of his mind.
"It's happening more than you may imagine." A demonic voice whispered to Dipper, the sound laced in his ears. "And when it happens, you and your relatives will die!"
Another voice spoke to him which prompted him to open his eyes only to see that the writings were gone and that it felt like it were all one big illusion in his mind. It scared him to see himself act strange.
"There's defiantly something wrong around the Mystery Shack." Dipper spoke in a stammer as he began walking toward the door backwards. "I got to find what's going on."
Almost reaching the door so to make a hasty exit, the brunette suddenly stepped on a floor board where the floor then consumed his foot. Feeling that he couldn't move his foot, he began trying to pull it out of where it was lodged, but found out he couldn't.
"That's just great!" Dipper growled through gritted teeth as he continued trying to un-lodge his foot from the floor. Giving it a few more tries and with one great thrust, Dipper's foot became free of the floor board. With his foot un-lodged, he then spotted something under the broken floor board that quickly caught his attention.
"Hello, what could this be?" Dipper asked to himself as he looked closer at the objected under the board.
Taking caution not to get splinters into his hands, Dipper removed the floor board and got a better look at what was hiding underneath it. It appeared to be something that Dipper once knew about the town and something he never could forget about the mysteries of Gravity Falls.
