Opening File: Abracadaver
Once known as a famed magician by the name Al Lusion known by everyone in the City of Townsville. One day when he was preforming, he asked for a volunteer which was a little girl and her teddy bear. The magician made the teddy bear disappear, but while accepting applause forgot to return the teddy. The little girl was wondering where her teddy was began searching for it to the magician's humiliation when she accidentally pulled his pants down in front of everyone.
Freaking out at the humiliation, Al Lusion stumbled and fell into an iron maiden on stage, killing him. The theatre he died in was eventually torn down and the iron maiden was dumped in a swamp outside of Townsville. No one knew that the numerous magical items he kept on his body at the time of his death and that the swamp he was dumped in had magical properties. Decades later the magic mixed and Al Lusion was resurrected as a soulless zombie.
He returned to terrorize the City of Townsville for the shame and humiliation he suffered prior to his death. The Powerpuff Girls arrived to stop the supernatural mayhem caused by Abracadaver. When he looked at Blossom, she reminded him of the young child with the teddy bear whom he blamed for his shame and death. He attempted to kill her and the other Powerpuff Girls but they managed to turn the tide on him and seal him back in the iron maiden.
However despite the people of the Townsville and the Powerpuff Girls believing he was defeated Abracadaver's magical power was noticed by the Lords of Chaos and Bill Cipher arranged for his body to be transported to Gravity Falls through the Blind Eye Society.

"It's never easy when someone we look up to is revealed to be a fraud. Childhood idols, inspiring historical figures or even close colleagues that have the power to inspire us to do to our absolute best. However not all of them actually live up to their hype and history sometimes exaggerates those we admire. They say truth will set you free but it can be very crushing at first." TOM remarked as the file closed. "And maybe sometimes the truth is not needed, at least not before the right time. Legends and myths have their places in history and they can be a guide to helping everyone become ready for the truth. The truth can set a person free but the myths, legends and stories around them are what make us believe we can fly."

When her first cries were heard Hoagie was immediately at her side, slowly picking her up and rocking her back and forth.
"Hey, it's okay. Daddy's here." He whispered softly. "Please don't cry. We don't want Momma to get cranky, do we?"
Sky seemed to understand him as she stopped crying and made gurgling sound, as if she was giggling.
"Looks like you got my brains after all. But we'll say it came from your mom so she doesn't get mad." Hoagie chuckled.
Sky eventually settled down and went back to sleep. Hoagie carefully put her back in her crib but did not go back to other bed where Nyx was sleeping. He watched his daughter sleep, took careful time every time she twitched or let out a whimper in her sleep and would rub her back to calm her down. When she started to cry again Hoagie picked her up and started humming a lullaby he remembered his mom singing to him when he was little.
He held her close, listening as her cries quieted down. He placed a gentle kiss on her forehead and watched as she yawned, looking like she was about to fall asleep. Sky nuzzled against her father's chest and Hoagie sat down, watching as she finally fell asleep. Rather than place her back in the crib he had made himself he held her in his arms as he sat back down on the nearby rocking chair, eventually falling asleep while staring at his greatest creation: his beautiful Sky.
Nearby Nyx was smiling, having been awake the entire time and secretly watched the father care for their daughter. Once Hoagie was asleep she got up and threw a blanket over him and Sky, kissing both of them on the forehead before heading back to bed.
'My airheaded Sky-King and my little Entrapta.' Nyx thought as she lied back down. 'No matter how bad it seems it couldn't be more perfect.'

"Hey Johnny, wait up!"
Johnny Bravo had taken off the moment he heard the mall was being attacked by villains and he had remembered his Mama leaving a note saying she was going to the mall to pick up groceries. Despite his lower than average brain power-much lower than average-he managed to put two and two together and realize his mother was at the mall.
So being the lovable son that he is he rushed out the door and ran in the exact opposite direction of the mall to save his Mama with Amethyst chasing after him.
"I'm coming, Mama!" Johnny called out, holding his hammer above his head.
He had led Amethyst who was being followed by Steven, Greg and Garnet through the hub of the city, reaching the docks.
"Johnny, wait!" Steven called out. "The mall is way back in the other direction."
Johnny stopped in front of a warehouse when he heard Steven's voice. "Wait…I went in the wrong direction."
Amethyst stopped next to him, patting him on the back. "Kind of. Yeah."
"Quick, we got to go in the other direction and get to the mall!" Johnny turned around to start running again.
Luckily Garnet grabbed him by the shoulder. "Hold on. I heard nearby that the villains attacking the mall were stopped. No one was hurt. Your mother is probably home by now."
"…So, we should go home?" Johnny asked slowly.
Garnet nodded. "She may be looking for you."
"Oh…Okay, let's go." Johnny said, much to the relief of the others and started walking home…
Just as the doors to the warehouse they were in front of exploded. Garnet, having seen a possibility of this happening with her Future Vision quickly shielded Greg and Steven from the blast while Amethyst slammed into Johnny, knocking the blond pretty boy down but he was unharmed.
Steven looked up and watched as two…vehicles emerge from the fire.
One looked like a mix of a jet and helicopter while the other resembled a large six wheeled tank like vehicle.
At least before they changed into robots!
One was a hulking machine with a purple and yellow color scheme, two of the wheels turning into feet that hovered a few inches off the ground. The chest looked like a spin with rib-cages protruding to the sides and the arms were covered in armor made from the tank mode it had changed from. Its 'head' had a gas mask like face and red glowing eyes.
The other was just as mean looking, a mix of blue and grey, its 'head' was at the same level of its shoulders with an insect and turret shaped 'face' with green glowing 'eyes'. It had wings attached to the back with twin rotors spinning, grey panels on its chest and the lower half consisting of the 'legs' fused together with what looked like a clawed tail at the very bottom. It had no 'hands' but at the end were tendril like fingers.
"What in the world-" Johnny started to get up.
"Stay back!" Garnet shouted, standing in front of Steven and the others. "Are you Autobots or Decepticons?"
"Terminate!" The hulking robot said in a female like voice.
"Obliterate!" The copter bot said next.
As if those words were not enough the robots attacking by firing pulse energy blasts were enough to signal their intent. Garnet quickly summoned her gauntlets, using them as shields to block the incoming energy blasts. The copter's fingers slid into its arm, revealing pulse blasters and the tank bot conjured energy spheres in its arms and hurled them at the Gems and Humans.
"What are they?!" Greg cried out, remaining hidden behind Garnet.
"Killer robots!" Johnny held up his hammer and it shifted into its gauntlet form. "Sweet!"
He started firing back at the robots but they seemed to ignore his attacks as they kept on firing.
"All you want a fight?" Amethyst pulled out her whip. "Then get over here!"
The machines backed up as Amethyst lashed out with her whip, knocking away any energy blasts they fired. Garnet jumped forward, aiming her fist at the hulking tank bot who raised its arm and blocked her fist. It swung its arm out, sending Garnet flying back but the Gem Fusion landed perfectly on her feet.
"Obsidian, obliterate!"
"Strika, terminate!"
The two machines quickly moved out of the way, the copter bot changing back into vehicle mode while the other one changed back into its six wheeled tank form. The copter machine took off into the air before coming back down, firing energy pulses down on the group and forcing them to run. Meanwhile the six wheeled assault vehicle immediately drove after the group, firing missiles at them.
"Johnny, get Greg and Steven out of here! Amethyst and I will hold them off!" Garnet shouted, her and Amethyst stopping and turning around to face the two machines chasing them.
Steven stopped, looking back at two Gems. "But Garnet-"
"Deploying Gem Destabilizer." The assault tank machine said, aiming its forward cannon and firing a glowing electric sphere.
Garnet held up her armored fists to shield Steven from the attack but when it hit Garnet screamed out as the pulse released an electric shock that split her apart, leaving Ruby and Sapphire in its wake.
"Fusion target neutralized." Strika said, stopping in front of downed Gems. "Gem Destabilizer weapon test success."
"Confirmed." Obsidian replied, hovering above the group. "Shall we terminate the rest?"
"Our standing order for any Gems that are found is immediate termination." Strika reminded.
"Then we shall carry out our orders."
Luckily before that happened a pink blur shot up, jumping over the group and slammed right into Obsidian. The copter machine shifted back into its robot form as it fell onto the ground and its attacker standing above it.
"Lion!" Steven shouted happily.
Strika turned around, facing Lion. "Organic creature with unusual readings. Detecting Gem energy…Its completely altered its biology. Detecting transdimensional energy inside its mane. Particle scan shows it's been alive far past its expiration date."
Obsidian looked up the creature pinning it down. "Confirmed. No pulse, detected. Its biological functions are inactive but the Gem energy keeps it sustained. Saving all recorded data."
He bashed Lion in the head with his arm, knocking the pink feline creature off of him and floated back up. Lion growled as he got back on all fours, glaring at the machines.
"I'll finish you myself, dog meat." Obsidian declared, aiming his finger cannons at Lion.
"Lion!" Steven shouted, rushing forward, ignoring his father's protest.
"Steven no!"
Obsidian fired but luckily something landed in front of Lion, taking the hits. When the dust cleared everyone saw who it was.
"And what reason do you have for causing such ruckus and attacking a little boy, machine?" Major Glory asked, arms crossed.
Steven gasped, recognizing the hero from the fight with Vilgax. "Major Glory!"
"Target identified: Major Glory. Threat Level: Extreme. Unable to deploy appropriate countermeasures at this time. Retreat recommended." Obsidian said, shifting into his vehicle mode.
"Understood." Strika reversed and turned around, leaving the shell shocked group behind as she and Obsidian took off.
"Yeah, you better run!" Amethyst shouted, shaking her fist as they departed.
"No so fast!" Major Glory declared, preparing to give chase. However before he could a green portal appeared and the two robots vanished into it before disappearing. "Curses."
"Ruby! Sapphire!" Steven knelt down, looking at the two unconscious Gems. "They are hurt. It's like the weapon Jasper used."
"Come on. We got to get them out of here." Greg said, picking up Sapphire.
"Allow me to help." Major Glory said, picking up Ruby. "So we meet again, Crystal Gems. What brings you all the way to GrimmFall?"

Obsidian and Strika reappeared in the city of the Racing Drones, changing back into their robot forms and bowed as Gelorum approached them, followed by Jetstorm, Thrust and Tankor. "You failed to shatter the Gems."
"We did. There was an unforeseen complication." Obsidian replied, presenting the data he and Strika recorded.
Gelorum analyzed the data, looking intrigued. "Pink Diamond…alive. This is unexpected. No wonder those Gems rebels were so effective in the war. They had inside help from a Diamond of all Gems."
"The Gem destabilizer weapons proved effective. Their fusion was neutralized." Strika continued.
"Good." Gelorum turned away. "You have managed to convince me not to delete your memory files and have you scavenged for spare parts. Now that we have established your effectiveness in battle we can begin producing the drones you will be leading."
"What of Pink Diamond?" Obsidian asked.
"We will leave her for another day. Homeworld and the Elementals remain our top priority." Gelorum walked out of the portal chamber.

"Detecting Gem signatures…here." A red hand pointed at the view screen. "One of them has got to be Jasper."
"Setting course. Make sure our shields are still up so we aren't detected."
"Shields online."
"Set course."
"Course set."
"Full speed. We got to find the leader of the failed mission immediately."

Pacifica led Dipper down a decorated hallway, pursued by the laughing ghost out into the courtyard.
"Hurry! Through the garden! Watch out for peacocks!"
Dipper, with his head in the journal, hit a peacock as they ran. Dipper and Pacifica muddied their shoes on the garden path as they run.
"Come on, come on-" Dipper kept flipping through journal desperately. "I got it! Haunted paintings can only be trapped in a silver mirror." He spotted one up ahead. "Look! There's a silver mirror right there!"
Dipper and Pacifica ran towards a pristine white room, where a large, rectangular mirror hangs on the rear wall.
"Figures my dad would hog the one thing we need to himself." Pacifica grumbled as they ran into the room.
"PREPARE TO DIE, NORTHWEST!" The ghost shouted, raising his ax and charged Pacifica.
Dipper dashed in front of Pacifica, holding the silver mirror. There was a flash of light and Dipper and Pacifica were knocked out window, becoming entangled in a window drape and fell down a short hill.
"Did you get him?" Pacifica asked as they got up.
They looked at the mirror, still held by Dipper.
Inside the mirror was the ghost. "NO! FREE ME!" It pounded on the mirror's interior.
"Haha! Yes!" Dipper cheered.
"We did it!" Out of happiness Pacifica surprisingly hugged Dipper. Her eyes widened when she realized what she was doing, and then she backed off awkwardly. She cleared her throat and holds out a techno, avoiding eye-contact with Dipper. "Can I pay you to pretend that never happened?"

"Well, Pacifica, you really found the right man for the job." Preston snapped his fingers and butler shook Dipper's hand. "That's enough." The butler stopped shaking Dipper's hand.
"Hey, just holding up my end of the deal." Dipper said before turning to leave.
"Wait, leaving already?" Pacifica asked, actually sounding disappointment. "You're at the world's best party, dummy."
"Heh, I'd love to stay, but I've got a Category 10 ghost to dispose of." Dipper said before walking into a garden pillar. "Aah! Heh heh... Category 10." Both kids shared a laugh before Dipper left.
"Good job. Now we can move forward." Preston said once Dipper was gone. "I'll assemble our contestants."
Pacifica walked off without a word.
She almost looked…saddened for some reason.

"Come Eddward."
"Coming, Mother."
Eddward, better known to his friends Double D adjusted his tie and quickly joined his parents at door.
"Good. Mr. Northwest wishes to meet us in the basement."
Xxx
"You ready, Dexter?"
"Of course I am ready, grandpa. Time to see this challenge." Dexter said confidently and looking even more so in his tuxedo.

"STANLEY PINES!" The door to the Mystery Shack was kicked open, allowing a very annoyed Lydia to enter. "GET YOUR WRINKLED OLD BUTT OUT HERE!"
There was a shuffling sound before Stanley Pines stumbled out, wearing only a white wife beater, a gold chain, striped blue boxer briefs, slippers, and his usual glasses and fez. This outfit revealed Stan's vast amounts of body hair, burly arms, skinny legs, and his very large belly.
"Oh Gob!" Lydia covered her eyes. "Are you trying to kill me!?"
"Hey, give me a break, Lynds. It's not like I was expecting company." Stan retorted. "What do you want?"
"My grandson."
"Huh?"
"My idiot grandson has disappeared again and last time it was with those kids of yours!" Lydia pocked Stan in the chest with her cane. "So where are they?"
"Up at the Northwest Mansion, hanging out at that stupid party." Stan batted the cane away. "Something about a ghost."
"And why aren't you there?" Lydia demanded.
"Cause knowing the Northwests it's just another hoax. The kids will be gone, steal some food, get their hearts broken and come back here." Stan explained. "Nothing new."
"Except my grandson was supposed to be there but he is not and we know what happened last time he went off with those kids."
"Look, Lynds I don't know where he is. I am not sure what where he'd be if he wasn't up at the mansion with the kids." Stan shrugged and rubbed her head. "But he's not here."
Lydia glared. "If I find out he's hurt and it's remotely connected to you or the kids I will be back and you better have a very good excuse." She then turned around and stomped out of the Mystery Shack.
A pair of eyes watched as Lydia left. "Okay, time to move."

June narrowed her eyes. "Fine. I was cocky last time. I won't make that mistake again."
"Is that so?" Hoss held up his taser. "Well this might come as a shock to you."
He fired a blast of electrical energy right at June, starting off their rematch. June ducked and raised her leg, firing a blast from her Burning Flower at Hoss who dodged. He switched from his taser back to his chainsaw and jumped at June, trying to slash at June's head but June head-butted Hoss in the face strong enough that Hoss stumbled back. June raised her leg to fire another blast but Hoss raised his other hand, revealing a gauntlet with a black gem, possibly a Dust shard.
June's Fire Dust coated projectile collided with the gauntlet and…
Nothing?
"What?" June lowered her leg, suddenly feeling strange as her Aura shimmered. "What the…" Her Aura suddenly broke and she felt herself growing weaker. "What's happening?"
"What's happening?" Hoss grinned as the compartment holding the Black Dust shard closed and held up his chainsaw. "That would be me winning this fight."
June jumped back, feeling the drain on her weakening. "It's that gem, he's got. It's absorbing the Dust energy from my weapon and my own Aura."
"I didn't use this the first time we fought because I thought you were some brat." Hoss slowly walked after her. "I won't make that mistake again."
June narrowed her eyes. "Where did you get something like that? I doubt they give away Dust like that for free."
"It was a gift." Hoss held up his gauntlet. "Say hello to Purgatory. It's able to absorb and disrupt energy in range of the Black Dust it carries."
"Black Dust?" June whispered. "I never heard any kind of Dust like that."
"Neither did I." Hoss replied as he continued walking towards her. "Lucky me. Your magic won't be able to help you and with this, I'll exterminate all the magical scum in this town and start taking down every other freak in the world."
"You haven't beaten me yet, freak." June growled.
"Don't worry. That comes in the next five seconds." Hoss replied before managing to grab June and hurl her into a nearby store, shattering the window she hit.
June grunted, feeling very sore even with the magic inside of her making her more durable than an ordinary Human. "Okay, now I'm mad."
"Not much good without your magic, Aura and Dust powered weapon are you?" Hoss chuckled. "Time to go down."
"You first." A voice said from behind.
Hoss turned around, only to hit in the face with some kind of capsule that exploded, releasing a gas. "GAH?!"
His one eye was stinging back and watering as he rubbed it.
"Like it? It's a little something I cooked up in case I was ever attacked and outnumbered." Jasmine Lee said, cracking her fists. "Several ingredients chlorine, sand, pepper, extremely small shards of glass and a special chemical to keep it in gas form. No Dust at all."
She reared her fist back and sent it forward, slugging Hoss in the face so hard he slammed through the back wall and out the other side.
"June, are you all right?" Jasmine helped her granddaughter to her feet.
"Yeah." June answered, feeling her strength returning. "Thanks, Ah-Mah. He really took me by surprise with that thing. How come I never knew about Black Dust?"
"It's not something I'm familiar with either. There was a rumor of it but it was written off as a myth." Jasmine replied, following the hole left by Hoss. "How a meathead like this guy found it I could never hope to guess."
In the back of the shop Hoss Delgado was on the ground and knocked out.
"Idiot doesn't use Aura so he was easy to knock out." Jasmine spat at the man who tried to kill her granddaughter. "Let's get this weapon off him and turn him in."
"Fine by me." June nodded in agreement before her bracelet started flashing again. "What now?"
"Go. I'll handle this." Jasmine said, pulling Purgatory off of Hoss' hand.
June nodded. "Thanks, Ah-Mah."
She ran off, leaving Jasmine behind as she pulled out a charm. "All right, time to make sure you never hurt my granddaughter again."
