Dipper's POV

Dipper: Wait.

Dipper and Mabel: GRUNKLE STAN!!! *run to Stan*

Stan: KIDS!!! I can't believe it!!!!! *hugs the twins tightly* I thought I lost you two!!!

Soos: *hugs Stan* Mr. Pines, it's really you!!!!!!! I've been hugging strangers practicing for this moment!!!

Wendy: *hugs Stan* We missed you, you old codger!!!

Soos: *lifts you all up in his hug then places you all back on the ground as you all pull away*

Stan: I missed you knuckleheads too. It's good to have you back.

Dipper: *sees all the creatures and people in the shack* So what's everyone doing here? *gets startled by the Lilliputtians passing by*

Mabel: Yeah, there's like monsters and gnomes, and is Pacifica wearing a potato sack?

Pacifica: Hey, even in a sack I still look better than you!

MultiBear: It's... it's a long story.

Wax Larry King's Head: Hey, is anyone gonna feed me? Larry Kong's disembodied wax head wants nom noms.

Grenda: We're trying to ration our food, remember?

Wax Larry Kong's Head: *starts chewing on Grenda's ponytail*

Grenda: Uh, it's happening again....!

MultiBear: *closes the vent*

Dipper: ? *gasps* Wait, is (y/n) here?!?

Stan: She's not with you?

Dipper: ... *looks down in worry*

Mabel: *gently places a hand on his shoulder* Don't worry, Dipper, we'll find her...

Dipper: ... I hope so...

Manotaur: Hey everyone!!! Eye bat!!!

Everyone: *gasps*

Gnome: Evasive maneuvers!!!

Stan: *closes the door as everyone lower their heads* Shh, keep it down!!!

Gnome: Get the lights!!!

Other Gnome: *blows out the light*

We waited a bit until the eye bat finally flew away. It wasn't long after that everyone calmed down and sat around the place.

Stan: *turn the lights back on revealing everyone* Welcome to what's left of normal around here, home base.

Dipper and Mabel: *look at everyone in the shack*

Dipper: *gasps at the sight of Rumble* Rumble McSkirmish?!?

Rumble: Do not be afraid, Weirdmaggedon has taught me there are some battles I cannot win. I am now Humble McSkirmish...

Mabel: Grunkle Stan, how'd this all happen...?

Stan: So I was hammering signs out back when the sky started vomiting nightmares. I listen to a lot of a.m. radio, so I knew what this meant: the end of the world. What I didn't expect was what happened next. Turns out whatever you and my brother did to the shack with your unicorn voodoo made the crazy place invincible to weirdness.

Dipper: Of course, the unicorn spell! That's why this is the only place Bill's magic can't touch!

Stan: That's when possum breath over here shows up leading a bunch of injured stragglers through the forest. They needed a place to stay, and since the mayor got captured I elected myself to Facto-Chief! The plans to stay in here and eat brown meat until we run out, *trying to whisper* then I vote we eat the gnomes.

Jeff: Hey, I'm short, not deaf!

Stan: Shh shh, stress will make you chewy.

Dipper: Grunkle Stan, we can't just hide inside the shack. There's a town in need of saving! We tried to do it but Ford got captured by Bill...

Stan: Serves that jerk right, my brother's had some stupid plans but going up against an all powerful space demon was his worst one yet. Trust me, we have everything we need right here! *sits on a chair* It's not a Ritz but at least the monsters inside know how to massage.

MultiBear: *massages Stan's shoulders*

Stan: You know shiatsu?

MultiBear: Yes, I've taken some classes.

Dipper: So you're really just gonna let Bill win..?!?

Stan: Look, kid, we got a good deal here! Besides, I'm sure wherever the rest of the townsfolk are they're fine. *accidentally hits the remote turning on the tv*

Shandra: *tv, whispering* This is Shandra Jimenez reporting live from inside of Bill's castle. Here for the first time are images of what's happened to the captured townsfolk.

Tv: *shows a throne of people turned to stone*

Shandra: Viewers are advised to look away if they don't want to see their friends turned into a twisted throne of human agony.

Pacifica: Mom and dad?!?

Wendy: My family!!!

Blubs: Deputy Durland!!!

Shandra: Is there no one who will save the people of this town? I'm Shandra Jimenez and I'm being turned into stone by a flying eyeball. *gets turned to stone as the tv shows static*

Everyone: *gasp*

Pacifica: Oh no... My parents are bad but even they don't deserve to be turned to stone...

Blubs: Curse you, Bill!!!!!! Why must you take everything you love?!?!?!?

Everyone: ...

Mabel: *climbs to the top of the MultiBear* Guys, don't you see? Our friends need us but we can only save them if we fight back!

Dipper: *climbs next to Mabel* Mabel is right. Bill wants us to run and hide! He wants us to think he's invincible! But Ford told me before he was captured that he knows Bill's secret weakness!

Everyone: *gasp and start to mutter*

Dipper: Now, if we band together, if we combine all strength, our smarts, our- whatever Toby has.

Toby: Various rashes!!!

Dipper: Then we just might be able to rescue Ford, learn Bill's weakness, and save Gravity Falls!!!!!!

Everyone: *cheers*

Stan: Whoa whoa whoa!!! Have you all forgotten who's in change here?!? Besides, we're only safe inside!!! It's not like we can take the Mystery Shack to Bill!!!

McGucket: Wo- woo!!! Holy hootenanny!!! Flapjack and fiddlebanjos!!! Sorry, sorry, got a little excited. *slaps his knee which shakes strangely* What I meant to say is: I think I figured out a way to fight Bill and rescue Ford, but we're all gonna have to work together!!! *snaps his fingers* Now.

McGucket explains his plan to us. It was insanely crazy!!! So crazy that it was destined to work!

McGucket: *puts some blueprints in the table* Alright, I've made some thing-a-meticulous robo-magigs in my day, but this is the first one that won't be used for evil!

Dipper: Whoa, this blueprints are incredible, McGucket!!!

Mabel: This is your most amazing invention yet!!!

Soos: Question: does it have any gun swords? I watch a lot of anime and trust me, you're gonna want some gun swords.

McGucket: What's an anime...?

Soos: We have much to discuss.

Stan: Discuss nothing!!! This scribbles are a lot of cockamamie balderdash!!! Excuse my french!!!

French Lilliputtian: *in French* I don't believe that was French.

Stan: And where would you even find a bunch of idiots crazy enough to build it?!?

Mabel: Grunkle Stan, you're looking at those idiots!!!

Everyone: *cheers*

And so we start doing this machine. We use anything we could find, and it wasn't as hard as one may think. Soos even taught McGucket some anime.

At the end of the day we were all sitting around a campfire wearing sweaters Mabel knit for us. However, I couldn't relax, not when I had no idea where (y/n) was...

Soos: Thanks for these apocalypse sweater, Mabel! The end of the world has never been so confortable!

Everyone: *nods*

Pacifica: *trembles with cold* Ugh, fine, I'll wear it. *takes Mabel's llama sweater and puts it on* But I'm not gonna like it.

Mabel: Admit it, this is the best day of the end of the world! I think we actually have a chance to beat Bill and win back our future!!!

Dipper: Yeah, getting to actually live to see our 13th birthday party is the only birthday present I want right now.

Soos: Hey, if we're lucky enough to get there I guarantee this whole town is gonna throw you the best birthday party you've ever seen!

Dipper: Thanks, Soos. ... *looks down*

Mabel: Dipper?

Dipper: I'm just... worried about (y/n)... We don't know anything about her for days... w-what is she's-...

Wendy: (y/n)'s a tough girl, Dipper, I'm sure she's ok...

Soos: Yeah, dude, we'll find her...

Dipper: I really hope so... *looks around* Hey, has anyone seen Grunkle Stan?

Dipper and Mabel: *walk over to Grunkle Stan who's a little farther away from the campfire*

Mabel: Is something wrong, Grunkle Stan? You're acting... grunklier than usual.

Stan: It's this darn plan to save my brother, if you didn't notice I already saved him once from that portal and he never thanked me!!! He causes the end of the world and somehow it's still always: Stan's the screwup, Ford's the hero!!!

Dipper: Well maybe people think he's a hero because he didn't want to hide in the Mystery Shack!!!

Stan: Well maybe if he hid in the Mystery Shack he wouldn't have been captured!!!

Mabel: *wraps her arms around them* Guys, guys, trust me! Trust me, tomorrow's gonna be great! I believe in us!

Chutzpar: Help, leader Mabel!!! I keep accidentally flexing through my sweater!!! *flexes, causing the sweater to break* Ah, it happened again!!!

Mabel: Those weird cow monsters are delightful!!! Coming!!! *runs over to Chutzpar*

The next morning we all gathered up in the attic.

McGucket: Alright, fellers, let's hope this turns out better than my other adventures!!!

Mabel: Everybody ready?!? Dipper, now!!!

Dipper: *pulls a lever*

We all shake as the Mystery Shack is lifted off the ground. Controlling it, we made our way to Bill's pyramid castle attacking it from all sides. His demon friends began attacking us, but we were able to fight them off. In fact, we actually beat them!

But our celebration was cut short when Bill began to fly towards us, his hand pulled into a tight fist about to punch the Mystery Shack into complete destruction.

However, it didn't matter how hard he punched, how hard he tried, the unicorn barrier would not break. We took the chance and our T-Rex (yes, we had a T-Rex) ripped his eyeball out.

"Rescue team, move out!!!!" I heard Mabel yell. Some of us, including myself, went into some tubes and were launched into the pyramid landing safely inside because of the parachutes Mabel knit us. Once inside...

Everyone: *gasp at the sight of the throne of people*

Dipper: Oh man, it's even worse up close...

Mabel: *uses her grappling hook to climb up to the throne* I found great uncle Ford!!! *throws her grappling hook down* He's golden!!! But not in the good way!!!

Stan: Great, grab him and let's get out of here!!!

Dipper: But how are we going to unfreeze them?

???: I can answer that, actually.

We all turn to see a familiar face inside a glowing blue cage. My eyes widened as I ran over.

Dipper: (y/n), you're ok!!!!

You: Physically? Yes.

Dipper: I was so worried...!

You: I know, I'm sorry...

Dipper: You've been here all this time...?

You: Bill thought I'd "come in handy" for something, though I'm afraid to ask what...

Dipper: How do we get you out?

You: The cage is powered by the throne, get Mayor Tyler out and the whole thing falls apart.

Mabel: *pulls Tyler out causing everyone to fall and turn back to normal and setting you free*

Lazy Susan: Oh my mouth taste like nightmares.

Robbie: Ah!!! I think I've darkened torture for reals now!!!

Tad: This experience will forever scar Tad Strange.

You: *fall out of the cage with a groan*

Dipper: *helps you up before wrapping you in a hug*

You: ! *smile softly as you hug him back*

Manly Dan and Wendy's Brothers: *hug Wendy tightly* Wendy!!!

Wendy: Guys!!!

Pacifica: Mom, Dad!!!

Blubs: Durland!!! *pushes Preston and Priscilla out of the way and kneels beside Durland*

Durland: My Blubs!!!

Blubs: Don't you ever scare me like that again!!!

Blubs and Durland: *hug*

Everyone: *cheers*

Ford: *turns back to normal* Kids!!! Ah, you did it!!! *hugs you, Dipper, and Mabel* I knew I could count on you three!!! *laughs, then sets you all down as he notices McGucket* Fiddleford, I- I haven't seen you since we parted ways. You must hate me...

McGucket: ... I've tried forgettin', maybe I should try forgivin'. Come here, old friend.

Ford and McGucket: *hug*

Stan: Hey, good to see you too, bro. Now let's get out of here, huh?

Dipper: Listen, Grunkle Ford, we don't have a lot of time. Remember how you told me right before you were frozen that you knew Bill's weakness?

Ford: I- I do! *as he puts on gloves* Now, does anyone have a pen? Pencil? Anything? *notices a can of spray paint on the ground* Ah! *picks up the can* Perfect! *starts to draw something on the ground*

You: Uh, Bill went outside, but I don't know how long he'll be out for.

Ford: *continues drawing something* Yes yes, good good.

Stan: Drawn a circle on the floor. Well, he's lost his mind.

Ford: *still drawing something* My mind is fine, and there is a way! With this! *reveals a circle with symbols all around it and Bill in the center*

Pacifica: The world's most confusing game of hopscotch?

Ford: No, a prophecy. Although it would be a pretty fun game of hopscotch. Many years ago I found eleven symbols in a cave. Some I recognized them, and some I recognize now. The native people of Gravity Falls prophesied that these symbols could create a force strong enough to vanquish Bill. With Bill defeated, his weirdness would reverse and the town could be saved! This whole time I thought it was just superstition, but seeing you all here now I finally understand that it's destiny! Dipper, the pine tree.

Dipper: *steps on the pine tree symbol*

Ford: Mabel, the shooting star.

Mabel: *steps on the shooting star symbol*

Soos: A question mark!!! This one's unsolvable!

Wendy: *sees the sewed up heart symbol and pushes Robbie unto it* That one's easy! You've been rocking that dumb hoodie since the seventh grade!

Robbie: Whoa, destiny hoodie...!!! 

Soos: *steps on the question mark symbol*

Dipper: The tent of telepathy sign, that must be Gideon!

Gideon: *steps on the tent of telepathy star sign* Woo, and excuse to stand next to Mabel!

Mabel: Don't turn this into a big deal.

Gideon: Oh I won't! *whispers* I will!

Ford: *steps on the six fingered hand sign* Hold hands, everyone. This is a mystical human energy circuit.

Dipper: Ice?!? Who's ice?!?

You: *think for a bit* Do all the symbols need to mean something literal?

Ford, No, they don't. It just has to be someone cool in the face of danger.

Nate, Lee, Thompson, and Tambry: Wendy!!! Wendy!!!

Wendy: *laughs* Shut up, you guys. *stands on the ice symbol*

Ford: Much like the spectacles need to be someone scholarly. 

McGucket: *stands on the spectacle sign and laughs*

Pacifica: *as she steps on the llama sign and seeing her sweater* This is weird.

Ford: *looks at the symbol of a flaming heart* This one I never was able to understand, though now it looks familiar.

You: ... *take the pin on your head you've head since the first day* ...

Dipper: *offers his hand to you* The Fireheart.

You: ... *take his hand with a smile, standing on the Fireheart symbol* 

Ford: Now hold hands, everyone.

Pacifica: *sees she has to hold McGucket's hand* Ew, I'm not touching that!

Preston: Do it, sweety. Do the one thing no one in our family has ever done: *whispers* touch the hillbilly.

Pacifica: *hesitantly holds McGucket's hand making you all start to glow*

Dipper: Great uncle Ford, I think it's working!

Ford: Yes, this is it! The rest of you get out! It's too dangerous!

Everyone Else: *runs away*

Ford: We just need one more person. *sees the fez hat symbol* Stanley!!! Stanley, get over here!!! You're the only one left!!!

Stan: You realize this is a bunch of hogwash, right? You really think some caveman graffiti is gonna stop that monster?

Gideon: Dang it, old man, now is not the time!!!

Wendy: C'mon!!!

Pacifica: What are you doing?!? You're gonna ruin this!!!

Robbie: I've never held hands this long and I am very uncomfortable!!!

Stan: Whoa hey, I'm not the enemy here, people! Don't forget who literally created the end of the world!

Ford: I'm sorry, Stanley, I know, just help me it! Please!

Stan: Fine, just do one thing: say thank you.

Ford: What?

Stan: I spend thirty years trying to bring you back into this dimension and you still haven't thanked me!!! You want me to shake your hand?!? Say thank you!!!

Ford: Fine. Thank you.

Stan: *takes Ford and Soos's hand* Ah, see? Between me and him I'm not always the bad twin.

Ford: Between him and me. Grammar, Stanley.

Stan: I'll grammar Stanley you!!!!!

They start to fight, letting go of the circle. Mabel and I ran to stop them, but it wasn't long until we heard the familiar cackles.

Bill: *laughs* This is just too perfect!!! Didn't you brainiacs know the zodiac doesn't work if you don't all hold hands?!? And what's better, you brought every threat to my power together in one easy to destroy!!! *turns the zodiac circle into flames*

Mabel: *gasp*

You: No!!!

Pacifica: *shriek* My hair!!! *pats down the flames in her hair*

Robbie: Ah, my hair also!!! *pats down the flames in his hair*

Bill: *ties Stan and Ford with magic hand ropes* You want to see what happens to your friends when you don't get along?!?

McGucket: Hey, you give them back!!!

Gideon: You've gone too far, Cipher!!!

Wendy: Yeah, we're not scared of you!!!

Everyone except Bill: *take out a weapon each*

Bill: Oh but you should be!!!  *snaps his fingers making everyone except you and the two sets of twins float up next to Bill as minds slaves* You know, this castle could really use some decorations!!! *snaps his fingers making them all turn into tapestries of them screaming*

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *gasp*

Bill: Looks like it's too late for your friends, Stanford!!! *points at you and the twins, a triangular jail forming around you all* But you can still save your family!!! Last chance!!! Tell me how to make Weirdmageddon global and I'll spear the kids!!!

Dipper: No, don't do it!!!

You: Don't trust him!!!

Mabel: Yeah, Bill makes bad deals!!!

Bill: Don't you toy with me, Shooting Star, I can see EVERYTHI-

Mabel: *shoots spray paint into his eye*

Bill: *covers his eye in pain* OW!!! NOT AGAIN, WHY, EVERY TIME!!!

Stan: Great shot, pumpkin!!!

Stan and Ford: *fall on the ground*

Bill: I JUST REGENERATED THAT EYE!!!

Mabel: I know that hurts because I've accidentally done it to myself!!! Multiple times!!!

You: *take the shrinking/growing ray, making the cage you're in grow and escape with ease*

Dipper: Save yourself, run, we'll take care of Bill!!!

Stan: What?!?

Ford: That's a suicide mission!!!

Dipper: Trust us!!!

Mabel: We've beaten Bill before!!!

You: And we'll do it again!!!

Mabel: HEY BILL, COME AND GET US YOU POINTY JERK!!!

The three of us ran down the infinite halls of this place, trying to buy everyone as much time as we possibly could. But it didn't last so long. We eventually hit a dead end, seeing the others in the Mystery Shack getting defeated.

Bill picked us up in his fist, taking us back to where we originally started this chase, all three of us struggling in his grip.

Bill: Alright, Ford, time's up!!!

You, Dipper, and Mabel: *try to struggle out of Bill's fist*

Bill: I've got the kids~!!! I think I'm gonna kill one of them now just for the heck of it!!! *shooting star* Eenie!!! *pine tree* Meenie!!! *fireheart* Miney!!! *shooting star* YOU!!! *about to shoot a laser from his eye*

You: *manage to let your arm out as you hold a small knife, harshly stabbing it into Bill's arm*

Bill: *lets go of you and the twins at the sudden sting, shooting the laser directly at you and sending you flying back harshly into the wall*

Dipper, Mabel, Stan, and Ford: (Y/N)!!!!/KID!!!!

You: *groan a bit, standing up as you clutch your side* Ow...

Bill: WHAT?!?!? HOW DID YOU SURVIVE THAT?!?!?

You: *look at your hands which are glowing (f/c)* ...

Bill: You know, Fireheart, you could've joined me, ruled the world, but you chose them!!! So now, I have no choice but to DESTROY YOU!!!!!!! *points his finger at you as fire shoots from it in your direction*

Dipper: NO!!!!!

You: !!! *cover yourself with your hands out of instinct, the flames hitting your hands harshly, but being pushed back by your force* H-huh?!?

Dipper and Mabel: !!!!

You: *pushing back the flames, a (f/c) glow taking over your body*

Bill: *growls angrily, adding more force*

You: *get pushed back, still pushing back all the flames, then place your foot in front of the other to steady yourself as the fire turns (f/c)*

Bill: !!!!

You: *open your eyes which glow a bright (f/c), harshly pushing the fire towards Bill which harshly knocks him back through the wall*

Dipper and Mabel: *starring at you in shock*

Dipper: *shakes his head rapidly before running over to you* A-are you ok?!?

You: I uh, think so...?!?

Mabel: *runs over* How did you do that?!?

You: I-I don't know, I never even knew I could!

Bill: *floats back in, red in anger* RAHHHHHHH!!!!!

You, Dipper, and Mabel: !!!!

Bill: THAT'S IT, I'M DONE PLAYING GAMES, TIME TO END THIS ALL ONCE AND FOR ALL, RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!

Thick layers of fire were shot from Bill's hands. (y/n) ran to stand in front of it, shielding us from the flames she was now fighting to push back.

We wanted to help, but we didn't know anything we could do.

Her hair began to change to (f/c), from her roots to the end. She bared her teeth, I knew this was hurting her, but she didn't stop. She let out a battle cry, the flames glowing (f/c) before letting it go, the flames consuming Bill as he yelled.

The rest was blurry, and I could barely make out anything. After what felt like an hour, maybe less, I started to regain consciousness, and my vision started becoming clear.

I saw Stan, Ford, Soos, and Mabel around me, and I started to stand up as they woke up. All of Gravity Falls had turned to normal, and we were in the forest.

Ford: Is everyone ok?

Mabel: I'm good!!!

Stan: Define "ok".

Soos: I'm good, dude.

Dipper: Wait, where's (y/n)...?!?

Mabel, Soos, Stan, and Ford: *look around for you*

Dipper: *sees a cloud of smoke from a far* Oh no... *starts running towards it*

Mabel: DIPPER!!! *runs after him, followed by Stan, Ford, and Soos*

After running for a few minutes, I saw (y/n) lying on the ground unconscious, and I felt my blood run cold. I ran over, gently taking her in my arms.

Dipper: (y-y/n)?!? (y/n), w-wake up!!! P-please wake up!!!

You: ...

Dipper: No no no!!! (y/n)!!! (y/n), please!!!

You: ...

Dipper: P-please, don't leave, I-!!! ... I-I love you...!

You: ...

I felt tears streaming down my face as soft sobs escaped me, gently gripping her hand. I closed my eyes to try and stop my tears, but it was of no use.

I suddenly felt a hand gently pet my hair, making my eyes shoot open. (y/n)'s eyes were slightly opened, but a warm smile was spread across her face.

"Hey Pine Hat..."

I immediately wrapped her in a tight hug. She was a bit surprised at first, but it didn't take long for her to hug me back. Once we pulled away, she was tackled by Mabel who was also crying, now of joy.

We walked to the Mystery Shack. I was more than happy to know (y/n) was ok, though very confused to how we defeated Bill. Once there, we saw it was completely destroyed, Waddles was there waiting for us. Mabel hugged her pig, and we all went inside.

Stan: Great, more stuff to repair.

Mabel: Then I guess we better get started.

It took us a few days, but we were able to get the shack back in shape, and just in time for our birthday too. The days went by fast, and it was already the day of the party. Before we know it, it was time to blow out the candles.

Everyone in Town: *cheer as you all finish the birthday song*

Mabel: I can't believe you all got together just to throw a party for us!!!

Tyler: After all the Pines family has done for the town it's the least we could do!!! You've helped everyone here!!!

Gideon: Thanks to y'all saving us I learned to open my heart to kindness!!! No more evildoing!!! From now on I'm gonna try to be lil' Gideon regular ol' kid!!!

Soos: Dude, make a wish, dawg!!!

Dipper: You know, on my first day here if you had asked me what I wanted I would've said: adventure, mystery, true friends, but looking here at all of you I realized that every wish came true. I have everything I've ever wanted.

Mabel: If I had only one wish it would be to shrink all of you with the shrink ray and bring you home with us in my pocket, but since that's impossible- *looks at Ford* it's that impossible?

Ford: *moves his hand as a "more or less" sign*

Mabel: Since that's probably impossible, my only wish is for everyone to sign my scrapbook. I'll never forget you guys. Wait. *steps on the memory ray destroying it* Now I'll never forget you guys!

Dipper and Mabel: *blow out their candles*

Wendy: *puts an arm around the twins* I now officially declare you technically teenagers!!! Welcome to angst and acne forever!!! *pulls away*

You, Wendy, Nate, Lee, Thompson, Tambry, and Robbie: One of us!!! One of us!!!

Blubs and Durland: *shoot a cannonball*

Soos: So how do you feel?!?

Mabel: Same-y, but different-y!

Pacifica: Hey, you two! When are you gonna open your present already?*shows her bandaged hands* I broke a nail wrapping them!

All: *laugh*

We began to open presents. As they did, I noticed Stan and Ford go beside the Mystery Shack, but I just shrugged it off. We noticed them coming back when Stan lightly hit a pen against a Pit Cola bottle catching everyone's attention.

Stan: Everyone, I have an announcement to make. *puts his arm around Ford* Me and my, heh, nerdy bro over here have some catching up to do. We're gonna be away for a while, that's why I'm shutting down the Mystery Shack for good!

Everyone: *gasp and murmurs*

Soos: You shut down your mouth for good!!!

Stan and Ford: ...

Soos: I'm sorry, Mr. Pines, but the shack is the most magical place on Earth!!! Sure, the attractions are all fake, but dreams aren't fake!!! *picks up an attraction* Like this mermaid!!! It's not just a dead fish butt sewn to a monkey carcass, it's a marvelous creature that makes us believe that anything is possible!!! You shut down this shack and you shut down our dreams!!! *takes off his hat* At least... my dreams...

Everyone: Aww...

Stan: *sigh* I'm sorry, Soos, it's just there's no one around to run it... At least, there wouldn't be if I hadn't just found the perfect replacement. *puts his fez hat on Soos's head* Ladies and gentlemen, the Mystery Shack is under new management!!!

Everyone: *cheers*

Soos: You mean it, Mr. Mystery?!?

Stan: You're Mr. Mystery now, Soos. Just, make sure he doesn't burn it down.

Hours passed, the sun had started to set and it was time to say goodbye to the everyone. We were already at the bus stop.

Candy: Do you really have to go...? There's just so much we haven't done together...

Mabel: Summer's over, Candy, it's time for us to grow up.

Dipper: *nudges Mabel* But not too much.

Grenda: Ah!!! I hate my dumb heart for making me feel things!!! *punches her chest*

Soos: Hey, can you punch my heart too?

Candy: No, mine, punch my feelings away!

Mabel: *hugs Candy and Grenda who hug her back, then pulls away* Candy and Grenda, thank you for being my people. You'll always be my best friends. Grunkle Stan? Thanks for wearing my goodbye sweater.

Stan: Uh, it's cold out, I had to.

Soos: What? But it's like eighty something degrees out.

Stan and Ford: Can it, Soos!

You, Dipper, Mabel, Candy, and Grenda: *laugh*

Wendy: *walks over to Dipper* Hey, you mean a lot to me, man. *offers a fist bump*

Dipper: *fist bumps Wendy* You too.

Wendy: Oh and this. *gives Dipper a card* Read it the next time you miss Gravity Falls.

Mabel: *runs over and tackles you into hug* Thank you for being the best best friend and roommate ever.

You: *hug her back* You too. *pull away*

You: Take care of Dipper for me, will you?

Mabel: Of course.

You and Mabel: *laugh, Mabel walking away*

Dipper: *walks over* Hey.

You: Hey.

Dipper: So... what are you gonna do now?

You: I'll continue to work at the shack, Soos offered me a room in it so I might live there now, and learn about this new powers I have.

Dipper: I wish I could still be here to help.

You: You got your own missions to handle.

Dipper: *chuckles* Yeah.

We stayed a few seconds in silence before she gently cupped my cheek, pressing her lips against mine. I froze for a second, but soon kissed her back.

I was really gonna miss this... miss her... we had been through so much together this summer...

She soon pulled away, a warm smile on her face.

You: I love you, Pine Hat...

Dipper: I love you too, (y/n)...

Bus Driver: Last bus leaving Gravity Falls, all aboard.

Mabel: Guess we've said goodbye to everyone except...

Waddles: *walks beside you and sits*

Mabel: Waddles... I-... I don't know how to explain this but... *pets Waddles* mom and dad won't let me bring a pig home to California so... you have to stay here...! *starts to walk away but is stopped by Waddles pulling her skirt, then she tries to push him away as teats fall down her face* C'mon, c'mon, I have to go!!! I'm- I'm sorry, Waddles!!!

Stan: *growls* Ah, you know what, forget it!!! *picks up Waddles* I lived with this pig all summer, now your parents are gonna have to!!! *puts Waddles on the bus entrance* Hey, bus guy, this pig is coming with the kids!!!

If you've ever taken a road trip to the Pacific Northwest, you've probably seen a bumper sticker for a place called Gravity Falls.

It's not on many maps, and most people have never heard of it. Some people think it's a myth.

But if you're curious, don't wait. Take a trip. Find it. It's out there, somewhere in the woods.

Trust me, you won't regret your visit.

Thanks for reading!!! And I'm so sorry this episode took forever to publish, but it's out! And as I usually do, I'm gonna write a epilogue! So... yeh! 'Till next time!!!

❤️❤️❤️
