Mason "Dipper" Pines was in the middle of Gravity Falls Woods putting new advertisements to announce his uncle's touristic trap "The Mystery Shack". His parents sent him and his twin sister Mabel to his uncle's house for the summer, because they "needed fresh air". His uncle Stan doesn't believe him when he says that strange things happens in the town, but he's pretty sure that some strange stuff is going on, and his sister wasn't helping him either, she was in the middle of a boyfriend hunt madness and stalked almost every boy about her age that got in the Shack.
- I don't know why I am doing this? This place is strange. -He mumbled while trying to nail another advertisement to a tree, but when he hit the nail with the hammer he heard weird sound, like if he hit a piece of metal. -Uh? -He hit the tree again and confirmed that it was fake, he then found a secret door and opened it, revealing a rusty control panel, he pushed a few buttons and pulled a lever on the panel, behind him another secret door opened in the floor and he checked it, he found an old book inside of it and started to check it out. It seemed to be some sort of journal and unfortunately for him, he couldn't read who the owner was, he flipped through the pages and found it very interesting, but two messages got his attention above everything else, the first one was "Trust no one" the second "I never knew who she really was", Dipper could have kept reading the journal, but his sister appeared out of nowhere and startled him.
-What are you doing bro bro? What's that? -
-This is some sort of journal that I found in that hole over there. -He signaled the hole and Mabel peeked on it while he flipped through the pages a little more.
-Hey! Look at this! There's something else in here, it looks like a little jewelry box. -Mabel took the little eight-sided little box and showed it to Dipper. He glimpsed at it uninterested and went back to the journal, Mabel tried to open it, but it didn't budge. -Damn, I can't open it, I will need some tools for it, come on bro bro, let's go back to the shack. -Mabel pulled Dipper by the arm and dragged him with her.
-What's the rush? It's just a rusty jewelry box, perhaps it's empty. -Dipper complained.
-Perhaps, but perhaps it contains the most beautiful jewel we've ever seen, and I can use it on my date today. -
-What?! Let me get this straight! In the half hour I left you got a boyfriend? -He asked her dumbfounded.
-Yes! And he will be at the Shack pretty soon, so hurry up! – She was pulling him back to the Shack.

Pacifica Elise Northwest is the richest girl in Gravity Falls, but she isn't happy, actually, she's going through a very hard time now, her grandma passed away just a couple of days ago and she's broken, her grandma seemed to be the only person that cared for her. Her parents just cared for their status and their business, never had time for her, they always bought her anything she wanted, any toy, any dress, anything, absolutely anything, despite being too young for makeup, when she asked if she could have it, her parents just bought the most expensive set of makeup and vanity available, and Pacifica got excited a little with the idea "Perhaps mom will teach me how to apply it" she thought happily, but that didn't happen, she really expected her mom teach her something like that, she even tried to ask her for help but her mom's answer was "You can do it yourself honey" ironically she was getting ready for a social event, in front of the vanity, applying makeup on her face. In the end, her grandma taught her and Pacifica was very grateful to her. Pacifica's life has been very lonely, no friends around her age, no school, she was home schooled, she barely left the mansion, always with her parents accompanied by several armed bodyguards that didn't let anyone get close to them, to her, her grandma seemed to be her only real friend.
But now her grandma's gone and they've just arrived from the burial and from reading her grandma's last will and testament where she left her beloved granddaughter a quite good amount of money, that she can't use because she's underage, but her parents couldn't lay a hand on it either, it was Pacifica's money, and once she's old enough to get it, she will be able to use it however she wants to. Her grandma also left Pacifica her most beloved possession, a little jewelry box, that seemed to be sealed, because no one could open it, no matter what they tried, and a note attached to it, the note just said "USE IT WISELY MY DEAR".
Pacifica slumped on her bed, feeling miserably, the jewelry box and the note in her hands, she read the note over and over again, "What do you mean grandma?" she asked.

Mabel excitement was overwhelming and annoying, she was waiting for her date and at the same time she was trying to open de jewelry box, but no matter how hard she tried, the little box just didn't open.
-Ugh! It's no use! This stupid box just won't open. -Then the doorbell rang and she threw the box back and ran to the door. -He's here! -She yelled in excitement, Dipper managed to catch the box before it fell on the floor.
-What's in the box? -Stan asked him.
-I don´t know. -Dipper answered looking at the box intently.
-Then why it seems so important to you? -Stan asked again.
-I… really don't know. -Dipper answered doubting his words, still looking at the box. Stan just gave him a weird look.
-Hey everyone! I want to introduce you my new boyfriend. -Mabel got back with a very strange guy dressed in a black hoodie and blue jeans behind her.
Almost immediately, Dipper got a bad feeling about the guy. -What's your name? -He asked him.
-Ahm, I'm Normal Man. -The guy answered with a trembling voice.
-His name is Norman. -Mabel answered for him.
-Are you bleeding Norman? -Dipper asked when he saw a red liquid on his cheek.
-Ahm… It's… jam. -Norman answered, still with a trembling voice.
-Hehe… He likes jam. Come on Norman, let's go on our date. -Mabel pulled him from the arm.
Dipper was unsure about this guy and went to check on the journal and found a page with a draw about a creature that looked a lot like Norman and he started to read. -The undead, usually mistook as teenagers, these creatures are very dangerous and they FEED WITH HUMAN FLESH! ZOMBIE! Oh no! Mabel is in danger! -He looked through the window and saw Norman getting closer to Mabel in a threatening way but then he saw him putting a flower necklace on her.
Dipper sighed in relief. -Is my sister really dating a Zombie? Or I'm just going nuts? -Dipper asked to himself.
-It's a dilemma to be sure. -Soos said and startled Dipper. -I couldn't help but I over hear you talking aloud to yourself in this empty room. -
- Soos you've seen Mabel's boyfriend, he's gotta be a zombie right? -
-Hmm… How many brains did you see the guy eat? - Soos asked him back.
-Zero. -Dipper answered defeated.
-Look dude, I believe you, I'm always noticing weird stuff in this town, like the mailman, pretty sure that guy is a werewolf. But you gotta have evidence, other way people will think you're a mayor league cucu clock. -
-As always Soos, you're right. -Dipper nodded.
- My wisdom is both a blessing and a curse. -Then Stan called Soos to help him at the gifts shop. -I'm needed somewhere else. -And he left Dipper alone.
-My sister could be in trouble, time to get some evidence. -Dipper closed the journal and left it on his nightstand beside the jewelry box and proceeded to spy at his sister and her boyfriend on their dates, he even took a camcorder to record their activities but he just couldn't get anything that proved Norman being a Zombie, so he decided to talk to Mabel.
-Mabel we gotta talk about Norman. -
-Isn't he the best. Check out this giant smooch mark he gave me. -Mabel showed him the smooch mark and Dipper gasped. -HAHA! I got this with the leaf blower, by the way, I have to tell Soos to fix that thing. That was fun. -
-No Mabel, listen, I'm trying to tell you that Norman is not what he seems. -Dipper showed her the journal.
-Hmph, you think he might be a vampire, that would be so awesome! -
-Guess again sister SHAZAM! -Dipper opened the journal in a different page with the "Gnomes description. -Oh wait, I'm sorry, sorry, SHAZAM! -He flipped the pages to the right one.
-A zombie? That's not funny Dipper. -
-I'm not joking. It's all the heads up, the bleeding, the limp, HE NEVER BLINKS! Have you noticed that? –
-Maybe he's blinking when you're blinking. -Mabel tried to explain.
-Mabel, remember what the book said about Gravity Falls, trust no one. -
-What about me huh? Why don't you trust me? Pip! Pop! -Mabel put a pair of star shaped earrings on her ears.
-Mabel! HE'S GONNA EAT YOUR BRAIN! -
-Dipper, listen to me. Norman and I are going on a date at five o'clock, and I'm gonna be adorable! And he's gonna be dreamy! And I'm not gonna let you ruin it with one of your crazy conspiracies! -Mabel said getting angrier by the second and pushing Dipper out of the room while Dipper tried to reply, she finally slammed the door on his face.
Dipper just fell by the door. -Ah! What am I gonna do? -He asked to himself.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Exactly at five o'clock the door bell rang and Mabel rushed to it. -Coming. -She opened the door to find Norman. -Hi Norman, how do I look? -She asked showing him her new sweater.
-Shiny! -Norman answered with his weird voice.
-You always know what to say! -Mabel smiled at him and they left, Dipper saw them from his seat, he was checking all he recorded from them on the camcorder. -Soos is right, I don't have any real evidence. I guess I can be kind of paranoid sometimes and…wait! WHAT?! -He saw a scene and rewind it, on it, it was clear as day how Norman's right hand fell from his arm and he just took it with his other hand and put it back on his arm. Dipper jumped back so hard that he fell from his seat. -Gruncle Stan! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! GRUNCLE STAN! Gruncle Stan! Gruncle Stan! Dipper rushed outside calling for his uncle, but he was too busy with a group of tourists showing them a rock with face, or is it a face in a rock? Something like that.
Meanwhile, Mabel and Norman were in the middle of the woods. -Finally! We are alone. -Mabel stated.
-Yes, alone. - Norman said behind her.
Dipper tried to call his uncle's attention but it was useless. -Stan! -Then he saw Wendy coming to them and the golf chart behind her and ran to her. -Wendy! Wendy! Wendy! I need to borrow the golf chart so I can save my sister from a Zombie. Wendy smiled at him-
-How funny Dipper! -
-I'm not joking Wendy! Mabel is in danger! -
-Well, I'm sorry Dipper, but the golf chart is broken, Soos is coming to fix it soon, but now this thing won't move for a while. -Wendy explained to him and Dipper fell on his knees.
-Noooo! Damn it! -he yelled and ran back to his room. -What am I gonna do?! What am I gonna do?! -he asked over and over again, he was looking for something, anything to help his sister. -I wish I had something to help her!
CLICK!
-Uh? -Dipper heard it and followed the sound, which lead him to the jewelry box. -It's open! -Dipper took the jewelry box in his hands.

Pacifica was an isolated person, like a prisoner in her own house, but she had a telescope in her room, and with it, with her privileged position, she could see the whole town from there, she didn't know anyone's name so she named them herself, there was the hairy lumberjack, the tattooed guy, the one-eyed lady, the car salesman, and his creepy son, the wacko old man, and so, everyone had a name, she was bored and was looking around the town, but something got her attention, it was a brunette girl, about her age, she had never seen her before, "she must be new in town" she thought, she was with a very weird guy, that she didn't recognized either, -No fair! That girl is on a date! SHE'S MY AGE FOR GOD'S SAKE! Why I can't have a date?! -She was complaining while watching them, but then, something unexpected happened, the guy took of his black hoodie and suddenly, there were five dwarves in front of the brunette girl. -PFFF! -Pacifica felt like laughing. -Poor girl! Her boyfriend was a bunch of dwarves or gnomes or something like that. -she remembered how her grandma used to tell her stories about the mysterious things that happened in the town.
She saw the girl talking with the gnomes for a while but then, the gnomes pulled a jewelry box with a huge engagement ring. -ARE THEY PROPOSING TO HER? REALLY? SHE'S TOO YOUNG DAMN IT! -Pacifica yelled. Then she saw the gnomes attacking the girl. And pulling her to the forest. -God! She must have said no and they didn't take it well. Oh gosh! She needs help! What can I do?! MOM! DAD! THERE'S A GIRL BEEN KIDNAPED BY GNOMES! CALL THE POLICE! MOM?! DAD?! -Pacifica called for her parents but to no vail, they weren't at the house. -sigh! Typical. -Pacifica sighed in deception. -I wish I had something to help her! -Pacifica whispered.
CLICK!
-Uh? -Pacifica looked at the jewelry box in her nightstand. -It's open. -She took the box in her hands.
At the same time, Dipper and Pacifica opened the boxes and a flashlight blinded them and pushed them to the floor.
With Dipper.
He brushed his eyes and looked at the jewelry box on the floor, it contained a ring, above it, floating in the air was a weird black creature which yawned and looked at Dipper straight in the eyes.
-Hi! I'm Plagg, I'm a Kwami, I grant superpowers, nice to meet you Mason, do you want to help your sister? – the creature introduced himself.
With Pacifica.
Pacifica brushed her eyes and looked at the jewelry box on the floor, it contained a pair of earrings, above it, floating in the air, was a weird red creature with black spots. It yawned and looked at Pacifica straight in the eyes.
-Hi! I'm Tikki, I'm a Kwami, I grant superpowers, it's so good to finally meet you Pacifica. So, do you really want to help that girl?
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Well, let's see what I can get with this. But I'm going to need your help with it guys, first I need feedback, especially to know if someone else has done something like this before, I don't want to get in troubles with anyone.
Second, I don't know why, but I have the strange feeling that I haven't seen all the gravity falls episodes, I don't know why, I just feel it, so, if someone would be a dear and tell me all the gravity falls episodes in order, I'd be very grateful.
Third, as always, I'm asking for a cover, pretty please.
Read you next chapter, bye.
