Child of a Dream Demon [Gravity Falls]

Chapter 10: The Mystery Shack is Back!

[•3rd POV•]
The night after getting the mystery shack back. Stan goes down into the secret room, punching in the code in the vending machine and going in.

He starts doing sciency stuff and checking the journals from time to time.

"Thirty long years and it's all led up to this. My greatest achievement!" Stan exclaims in delight. Until the portal spout out fire that landed on Stan's red buttoned up long sleeved shirt, the one he wore that day. Stan pats it to take the fire away.

"Feisty, I like it." Stan thought aloud. He flipped some switches then looked to the readouts.

"If I finally pull this off, it'll all have been worth it. I just have to keep playing it cool; if anyone ever finds out about this..." He trailed off as he sat down and looked at the picture of Dipper and Mabel.

"Yeah, right. I've come this far. Who could possibly catch me now?" He shrugged off the feeling of foreboding.

Stan pulls a lever that caused a power surge throughout the town. Gideon, who is in jail, notices the light from the window bars. And Wendy from her bedroom.

| ~Meanwhile~ |

"See there! There it is again!" Agent Trigger exclaims as he looked at the readout.

"We haven't seen readings like this for thirty years." Agent Powers mused.

"Is it coming from deep space? An enemy weapon site?" Trigger questioned as he zoomed into the location of the source.

"Could this be related to the sudden earthquake that occured all around the world?" Powers questioned as he looked at the screen.

"Just as I suspected. Gentlemen! We're going to Gravity Falls." Powers declared.

| ~The Next Day~ |

Stan was asleep in the lab. Until his alarm clock went off.

"Oh right. Showtime." He mutters. He got up and left the room.

[•Dipper's POV•]
Yesterday was exhausting!

Ugh, and for some reason the town's people don't remember the earthquake that occurred that day. It was like no one cared or they thought of it as a natural calamity.

Even the gnomes for reason, something isn't right here...

"Welcome, to the grand re-opening of the Mystery Shack!" Stan greeted the tourists, my thoughts being cut off.

We were all back in our usual clothing, the clothes we wore yesterday was put away to wash.

"We're here to celebrate the defeat of that skunk Li'l Gideon!" Stan continued while holding a small Gideon doll.

"BOO!" The crowd hissed.

"Please, please... boo harder!" Stan exclaimed while gesturing his hands up.

"BOOOOOOO!" The crowd hissed louder.

"But I didn't catch that porkchop all alone. These two scamps deserve SOME of the glory." Stan says as he wrapped his arms on My and Mabel's shoulders

"Oof!" Stan groaned in pain from Mabel's elbow hit.

'𝘋𝘪𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘳 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘵 𝘎𝘳𝘶𝘯𝘬𝘭𝘦 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘯' She thought. I smiled softly at her.

"Okay, okay. Most of the glory." Stan gave in.

Toby Determined walks up and points a cinder block camera at us.
