Once upon a time,

a Demonic Prince and a Beautiful Mortal Princess fell in love.

Their love had its up and down.

Despite the Demonic Prince setting fire to the world around him, he will never let a flame touch his Beautiful Mortal Princess.

Two hours later, the airplane landed at Portland International Airport. The landing caused Talulla to wake up from her slumber. She opened her chocolate brown eyes and blinked.

" Dipper. Mabel. We are here," Talulla turns her gaze to her younger siblings.

Dipper fell asleep after reading several chapters of his Sherlock Holmes Book. The landing woke him up, and he opened his chocolate brown eyes to stare at his older sister.

" I'm Up!" Mabel shouts while waking up from her slumber. " Are we at Oregon?" She asked while looking at her surroundings.

" Yes. I will call Dad and let him and Mom know that we made it to Oregon," Talulla speaks. She pulls out her cell phone from her mini backpack and calls their father.

A few seconds later, Franklin picks up the call. The two converse with each other, reassuring him and Annalise that they have reached Oregon and will soon meet with their Grunkle Stan's friend.

The airplane parked at the terminal, and the doors opened. Talulla stands up, grabs her and her younger siblings' luggage from the cabinet, and gives the two luggage to her siblings.

The flight attendant escorted everyone out of the plane and into the airport. Talulla walks with her younger siblings to the Arrivals, seeing many people holding signs with passengers' names and greeting them.

" Do you see Grunkle Stan?" Dipper asked. " Dad must have shown you a picture of him, right?" He turns his gaze to his older sister.

" I do know what he looks like," Talulla responded. She glanced at her younger brother. " Dad said a friend of his named Zeus is going to pick us up," She speaks.

" Like the Greek God of Thunder?" Mabel asked while looking at her siblings in awe.

Talulla and Dipper turned their gaze to Mabel. The two fondly stared at their sister since they found her adorable.

" Ta-Lu-La Pines," A masculine voice calls out Talulla's name. She turns to see a tall twenty-one-year-old Hispanic male with black hair underneath a light brown cap and brown eyes looking around and holding a sign with their names on it.

" Dip-er Pines," The young Hispanic male's brown eyes squinted while looking at the crowd.

" Ma-pel Pines," The young Hispanic male looks forward, and his brown eyes blink when he sees Talulla and the twins walking up to him.

" Hello. Are you perhaps Zeus?" Talulla greets the young Hispanic male and softly smiles at him.

" Yeah! My name is Soos," The young Hispanic brightly smiled. " Well. My real name is Jesus Alzamirano Ramírez. But Stan calls me Soos," He looks at Talulla and the twins.

" Is it Zeus like the Greek God or Jesus like the Christian Savior?" Talulla asked while eyeing Soos.

" Like Jesus, the son of God," Soos responded. " But, I imagine Stan spells my name like Soos," He grabs a black pen and writes his name and nickname on the board.

" Cool! Nice to meet you, Soos. My name is Talulla Pines," Talulla introduced herself. " These two little munchkins-" She points to her younger siblings.

Dipper annoyingly rolled his brown eyes while Mabel waved at Soos.

"-are my younger siblings, Dipper-" Talulla motioned to her younger brother, who nodded. " And Mabel," She points to her younger sister, who smiles at Soos.

" Nice to meet you all. I am close friends with Stan. He is like a father to me since my father doesn't want to be in my life. I am digressing. Stan wants me to take you three to Gravity Falls. So, are you guys ready?" Soos asked.

Talulla and her younger siblings looked at each other and then at Soos. " We are ready," They responded.

" Great! Follow me," Soos turns around and walks out of the airport with the Pine siblings following him.

" How long have you known Grunkle Stan?" Dipper asked.

Talulla and Mabel eyed Dipper.

" Since I was twelve," Soos responded. " I will be twenty-two on July 13. So, almost ten years now," He brightly smiled.

" Do you work for Grunkle Stan?" Talulla asked, looking curious.

" I do! I am Mystery Shack's Handyman. I repair stuff," Soos turns his gaze to Talulla. " Stan tells me you are going to be working for us," He brightly smiled.

" Yeah. I want to start building a good work experience on my resume and getting money off it," Talulla laughed.

Soos amusingly chuckled. " We also have one other employee at the Mystery Shack. Her name is Wendy. She's our cashier," He stopped walking when he saw his truck.

" That's cool. I still don't know what Grunkle Stan wants me to do," Talulla murmured.

" Is this your ride?" Mabel asked while pointing at the truck.

" Yup! It was a birthday present from Stan," Soos proudly stared at his truck.

" That's cool!" Mabel brightly smiled.

Talulla's gaze softened, thinking that Soos was a sweet guy. She can't help but feel curious about meeting her Grand Uncle, Stanford Pines.

Soos unlocks the car, opens the trunk, and grabs Talulla and Mabel's luggage. " You two can get inside," He motioned to the vehicle.

" I called Shot Gun-" Mabel was about to sit in the front, but her older sister grabbed her by the collar, causing her to look at Talulla.

" No. You will be sitting in the back with Dipper," Talulla motioned to the back passenger door.

Mabel adorably pouts and nods.

Talulla lets her younger sister go and watches Mabel open the back passenger door and get inside. She looks away and turns her gaze to see her younger brother helping Soos put their luggage in the trunk.

" Thanks, Little Man," Soos brightly smiled at Dipper.

" You can just call me Dipper," Dipper awkwardly smiled.

" Coolio!" Soos closed the trunk and watched Dipper get inside the truck. He turned his gaze to Talulla, and the two smiled.

" How far is Gravity Falls from here?" Talulla asked.

Soos walked to the left side of the truck and opened the door. " It's a 2-hour drive," He responded.

Talulla's chocolate brown eyes widen. She didn't expect Gravity falls to be so far away from the airport and the busy city of Portland.

" Is Gravity Falls a small town?" Talulla asked. Her chocolate brown eyes blinked when she remembered her younger sister mentioning that the people of Gravity Falls know everyone.

" Yeah," Soos nodded.

" Good to know," Talulla nodded. She and Soos get inside the truck, and they leave the airport.

On the road to Gravity Falls, Mabel has decided to ask Soos a question.

" Soos! What's Grunkle Stan like?" Mabel asked.

" Stan is a funny guy. He is very caring even though he doesn't like to show that he cares," Soos amusingly chuckles. " Stan will look out for you and make sure you are okay. He is loyal and brave and is a brilliant businessman," He warmly smiled.

Talulla warmly smiled. She could see that Soos admires their Grunkle Stan and looks up to him. Her nerves begin to fade away, feeling excited to meet their relative and summer guardian.

Two hours later, Soos drove passed the Welcome to Gravity Falls sign. Mabel and Dipper looked at their surroundings with mixed emotions. Mabel looked excited while Dipper looked wary since they noticed that Gravity Falls is a small town of 3,120, now being 3,123.

Talulla silently looked at the window. She closed her chocolate brown eyes, feeling the summer breeze brush against her face as though the town was welcoming her home. She soon begins to daydream, wanting time to pass by.

" You will soon be mine, Princess," An echo-like masculine voice speaks, making Talulla's whole body shiver.

" We are here!" Soos' voice brought Talulla back to reality. She opens her chocolate brown eyes and blinks when she sees her new home, The Mystery Shack.

The door to the Mystery Shack opened, and a sixty-eight-year-old male with silver hair and brown eyes named Stanford 'Stan' Pines stepped out of the house to greet them.

" Welcome to the Mystery Shack," Stan grinned.

Mabel is the first one to get out of the truck. " Grunkle Stan!" She widely smiles and runs towards Stan.

" Hey! You must be Mapel?" Stan picks up his Grand-Niece before she can hug him.

" It's Mabel," Mabel giggled.

" That's what I said?" Stan raised an eyebrow.

" Soos is right. You are funny," Mabel snickered.

Stan puts Mabel down and sees Talulla and Dipper getting out of the truck.

' Huh. Twins must be genetic in this family,' Stan internally speaks when he notices Dipper and Mabel look identical yet different.

Talulla and Dipper approached their Grunkle Stan.

" Um. Hello. My name is Dipper," Dipper greeted.

" And my name is Talulla," Talulla held her right hand out to Stan.

Stan got tensed when he saw that Talulla had six fingers on her hand like his twin brother, whom he hadn't seen for years.

Talulla anxiously stared at Stan when she noticed that he was staring at her hand. She was about to pull her hand back, but Stan grabbed her hand and shook it.

" Nice to meet you, Talulla. Your old man told me that you would be the one to work for me?" Stan asked while looking at Talulla.

" That's right," Talulla nodded.

" Great! How good are you with customer service?" Stan eyed Talulla.

" Such as?" Talulla raised an eyebrow.

" Be my Tour Guide and tell Tourist all the cool stuff about Gravity Falls," Stan grinned.

" I do love history. Then again, I did get an A in my World History class," Talulla murmured.

" That's great! Can you start working tomorrow? I thought it be a good idea for you and the kids to get acquainted with the Shack and town," Stan looks at Talulla.

" How much will I be getting paid?" Talulla asked.

" Twenty dollars an hour," Stan responded.

" Great! I'll be at the Mystery Shack in the morning," Talulla reassured.

" Alright! I will tell you more about your job in the morning. Soos! Take the kids to their room. I will show Talulla where she will be staying," Stan lets go of Talulla's hand and approaches Soos, taking Talulla's luggage from the younger male.

" My room? I thought you were, you know, going to have Mabel and me share a room," Talulla walks with Stan to the Mystery Shack.

" Aren't you a teen? Don't you, you know, want privacy?" Stan asked with a raised eyebrow.

Talulla hummed. She nodded, thinking it was best to have a room for herself.

" Am I selfish for wanting to have my own room? Talulla asked.

" Nah! You aren't selfish," Stan reassured. " Your siblings are kids and, to be exact, twins. They are bound to want a room together," He shrugged.

Stan and Talulla entered the house and walked up the stairs.

" My room is over there," Stan points to a closed-door across the hallway. " That's the bathroom," He motioned to an open door that showed the bathroom. " And this is your room," He opens the door to let Talulla enter.

Talulla stepped inside the room and looked at her surroundings. She noticed that the bedroom had a bed, a closet, a cabinet, a desk with a lamp, and a bay window.

" Make yourself at home. You are welcome to redecorate the room whatever you want," Stan speaks while putting the luggage beside the door.

" Thanks, Grunkle Stan," Talulla looks at Stan and brightly smiles at him.

Stan's brown eyes briefly glanced at Talulla's hands. " Yeah. Yeah. I'll be downstairs in the living room watching TV if you need anything. You are welcome to explore the town, but be home before dark," He firmly speaks.

Talulla nodded. She watched Stan leave and close the door behind him, leaving her alone. She looked back at her room, and her chocolate brown eyes blinked when she noticed a blue carpet with yellow circular arrows by her feet.

" I'm not a big fan of the carpet," Talulla rolls up the carpet, opens the door, and carefully sets it outside. She steps back inside and looks at her bedroom.

" Now, it's perfect," Talulla grinned. " All this room needs is a little cleaning and some colorful posters," She clapped her hands, looking excited.

Talulla turned around and was about to leave her room when she felt her right shoulder suddenly burning. She puts her hand on her right shoulder and looks at her surroundings.

" I should probably have Grunkle Stan install a fan," Talulla murmured, thinking the room was hot.

Unbeknown to Talulla, a demon-like eye was watching her from the shadows.

" Talulla Pines. We will soon meet, and I will have you all to myself," A mischievous masculine voice cackled.

Talulla turned around, and her eyebrow raised when she saw nothing. She couldn't shake the feeling in her that she was being watched. She looks away and shakes her head.

" I should go check up on Mabel and Dipper," Talulla murmured. She walks out of her bedroom and closes the door behind her.
