As Old as time, second part

Back to Gravity Falls

Skià pov

I open my eyes to see the sterile white of a hospital room. I am in the arms of my father and look over to see my tired mother on the bed.

I look all over the area to try and figure out where I am in time but am distracted by a young girl and boy running in. They look to be about three and to be twins. They run up to my father who is holding me and look up at me.

"Mabel, Mason, this is your little sister Elise." Oh so I am a girl this time and as expected they are my older siblings.

It has been ten years about since I was reborn and I found out that we are the grand children of Shermie who was my oldest brother a few lives ago.

Today we are going to Gravity Falls. Our parents said we were visiting Stanford but I know he is still in another dimension because Bill told me so it must be Stanley posing as him. Bill is coming too, as I promised he got a better form after helping me with the whole gate to Gehenna fiasco. So now he has a bird body so he can talk to other people if he wants and can also fly. His rules are the same as his other body though. With not disclosing who he really is to people added on.

Our parents stuck us on a bus with all of our things and sent us off. When we arrived in Gravity Falls. It was similar to what I remembered but more built up. As expected Stanley was the one who picked us up.

We get taken to Stanford's house which has been made into a tourist attraction. He send the twins up to the attic where he set up their beds and tries to stick me in a small spare room but I head straight to my old room. It is kind of hidden so when I immediately find it and head in Stanley gets confused.

"How did you find that room?" I just look at him to try and figure out what I am going to say. "It doesn't matter. You can't have that room it's my brother's."

"I know. It is my room." I say before opening the door and throwning my things on the bed. I dust off my desk and Bill gets off my shoulder to sit on it.

"What do you mean 'it's your room'."

"It's my room, it always has been. Stanford gave it to me." He looks at me in shock before narrowing his eyes.

"Are you telling me that you are my little brother reincarnated or something?"

"Or something."

"Fine. Then answer some questions to prove it."

"Alright."

"First who am I?"

"Stanley. Though my parents now said that you are Stanford so my assumption is that you are posing as him."

"What was your name then?"

"Shawn."

"Where is Stanford?"

"He fell in the portal leaving behind his journal. So the assumption is that he is in a different dimension."

"Okay, fine, I believe you. How are you alive again? And a girl?"

"Well when I die I come back. I do not get to pick who I come back as." I say putting my stuff away.

"Huh." He says before just leaving the room to check on my siblings.

Over the next few weeks nothing really happened other than Stan, as Stanley asked me to call him, telling us we would be working at the shop. "I will not be working at the shop."

"You and your siblings should get some work experience." I give him a look. "Come on it's not that bad."

"I am too young to have a job and I will not be working as a part of the mockery of the supernatural that you built here."

"Fine. But can you do runs into town to get things?"

"That is fine. Send someone to find me if you need me." I say before grabbing a book and heading outside with Bill. We walk through the forest and I examine things that have changed. Mostly it is just a difference in how much growth is around but some of the creatures also moved to slightly different areas of the forest.

I talk to Bill as I walk around and take sips of blood wine from a cup. I know it is not as important now as it was when I first got bit because it was rather hard to drink blood in my last life but it definitely affects me if I wait too long.

I end up napping in a tree until Dipper, the nickname Mason goes by now, shows up and tells me it is time for dinner.
