Dipper and Mabel had done, explored, and befriended almost everything and every creäture in the book. It wasn't even the end of summer yet. The twins searched for something more and something exciting to finish of this 'best summer ever.'
"Here Dipper, let me see the book. There has to be something more!" Mabel had used up all her yarn and needed something fun to do.
"Mabe, I told you. There is absolutely nothing left to check out in Gravity Falls," said Dipper as he handed the book to Mabel.
Mabel flipped through all the pages and saw all the same things as before. But she did something different from before. Mabel took the monocle that was attached in the front and looked at the back cover.
"Wait, Dipper, we haven't done this before."
She handed Dipper the book with the monocle and pointed at the center in the back.
"It says that there's some sort of portal here in the Mystery Shack. In the attic!"
"Well what are we waiting for?"
The twins ran upstairs and went in the attic. "What does it say to do, Dip?"
"It says that there's a hidden button here that reveals a portal to an alternate universe."
"Where is it?"
"It doesn't say."
"Time to search then."
Hours of searching later, Mabel saw a mysterious button after she saw a mysterious red button underneath the floor boards. After pressing it, the closet opened and it turned into a portal.
Dipper gathered a bunch of supplies and went in. Mabel locked the attic door and then went in the portal.
They stepped into the closet of another world. It looked just like the Mystery Shack but something about it was different.
Nobody was around so the two Pines headed off and decided to explore the parallel universe. Nothing was different except for...
"Hey Dipper, there's something different about this place."
"Yeah."
Both the twin's stomachs growled. "Wanna head over to Greasy's?"
"Pancakes!" exclaimed Mabel.
The twins headed over there and saw something VERY off.
Everyone was swapped. Sheriff Blubs and Deputy Derland were woman who quietly ate their pancakes instead of chugging it down.
Wendy was a guy and he was sitting next to his mom, Mrs. Corduroy. Everyone looked the same except for the fact that they were the opposite sex.
The twins sat down at a booth and waited for the reverse Lazy Susan to come in.
"Hello," said the gender swapped Susan. "What can I get ya?"
"I'll get some pancakes!"
"And some water please."
The waiter jotted it down and left.
"Do we have enough money Dipper?"
"That's why we're splitting the pancakes and water."
"Hey Dipper. Wouldn't it be cool to see our selves in this alternate universe?"
"Yeah! Where do you we would be though? We weren't in the Mystery Shack."
"And I wonder where Grunkle would be at."
"Yeah."
The waiter came with the food and the two scarfed it down.
They paid and left.
"Here, put on these." Dipper handed Mabel a disguise of some sort.
"How did you know we would need this?"
"I guessed."
So Mabel and Dipper went in a Port-a-Potty and changed into outfits that made them look different. Mabel was given a brown short-haired wig and Dipper was given a blonde wig.
Mabel had a jacket instead of a sweater and Dipper just wore a polo with jeans. They honestly didn't look like themselves.
The two looked at each other for a moment and then headed towards the Mystery Shack again.
Inside was female Grunkle Stan. "Welcome to a world of mystery!"
Tourists wandered around and there, sweeping in the corner, was Pacifica and Gideon in outfits that looked like Mabel and Dipper.
"Are they our reverse selves?"
"No. They can't be. But we can ask them where our reverse selves are."
Dipper and Mabel went up to Pacifica and Gideon.
"Hi, um, do you know where we can find Dipper and Mabel?" asked Dipper.
"Try the Tent of Telepathy," replied Gideon.
"OK. Thanks! And nice sweater by the way," said Mabel to Pacifica.
"Thanks!" Pacifica then gave a beaming smile.
Mabel and Dipper went over to the Tent of Telepathy and saw the next show.
Just as reverse Gideon and Pacifica said, the reverse twins were at the Tent of Telepathy.
The performance was similar compared to the regular universe one with the western theme and the doves.
Everyone was impressed except for the twins. Reverse Mabel noticed that they weren't enjoying so she whispered something to her twin and they both looked at the regular Dipper and Mabel.
"Looks like we have some new people here at the Tent of Telepathy! Let's invite these two backstage!" announced the reverse Mabel.
The spotlight moved to the real Dipper and Mabel.
The audience clapped and reverse Dipper escorted them backstage.
"Look. We mean no harm. We know how you are because we are you in an alternate universe," said regular Dipper as they were escorted to the back.
"Impossible! You look nothing like us!" pointed out reverse Dipper.
The regular twins took off their wigs to show their real hair.
"See?" asked Mabel.
Both twins looked at each other and then at the mirror.
"How is this possible?" asked reverse Mabel.
"Um, magic," answered Dipper. He couldn't afford telling their reverse selves about the secrets of Gravity Falls. It would throw off the balance of the alternate universe.
"Can you take us to your universe?"
"I don't believe so. You know, with the space and time balance stuff. Speaking of which, we should go. I don't want to throw off any balance."
"Oh. Well it was really neat to meet you guys! Hope we see you guys again!"
"Yeah. Bye."
So the twins said good-bye to their reverse selves and the normal Pines twins left off to sneak back in the Shack.
It was easier than expected considering that Gideon and Pacifica were out exploring and Graunt was sleeping on the couch.
They summoned back the portal and went back to their universe seeing that time hadn't changed at all.
All was well. Or so we thought.
Author's Note: This was really short and didn't include much but I was up all night typing this up and so I just wanted to finish it. Hope you like it!
