Dippers POV 

I watched as Mabel hit her 'ball' into the cup. "HWWAA! TOTAL DOMINATION!" Mabel says looking like a dork. 
"I am the MASTER at attic stuff mini golf!" She held up her golf club. I walked up to the starting point.

"To the mighty Swiss south's! From the bad lands of Dippers old laundry where man fears to tread!" She exaggerates, looking over the golf course we set up.
"Alright, let a pro on the field.. or... floor whatever." I say and swing at the eye. I hit it and it bounces across the courses, straight out the window, and hits Grunkle Stan in the head. 

"YAS! STAN SHOT!" I rejoiced. "Is that legal?" I asked Mabel. She turns to her pet pig, waddles, and he was eating the paper. 
"The judges say it's out of bounce." Mabel says. "Your out of bounce!" I teased Mabel poking her lightly in the stomach. She giggles and does the same to me. All of a sudden, Mabels clock goes off.

Then, Mabel hands me her stick. "Here Dipper. I'm hanging out with Candy and Grenda tonight." She says stopping her clock. "Awe again? You can't leave mid-game!" I say. She turns. "Don't be silly i'm not leaving! My friends are coming to me!" She exclaims. "Wait What?! Oh no... no no no!" I panic seeing the sleeping bags and girly board games out. 
"Your not having a-"

Candy and Grenda burst in. 

"SLEEPOVER!!" They screamed.

I shouted not wanting to go through with ANOTHER sleepover of Mabel's.

Jess' POV

I fluttered my eyes open and groaned. The sun peered through every little spot through the blinds on the window. It shone bright in my eyes and I rolled out of bed onto the carpet. I groaned not really sure wether I wanted to get up or not. So I lied there for a good 2 minutes before there was a knock on my bedroom door which scared the daylights out of me. 

I stood to my feet and right before I was going to open the door I realized, It was just me in the house last night. Who the heck would be knocking at my bedroom door? I slowly opened the door and saw.... No one. There was no one there. 

The hallway was completely empty.

I felt a shiver go down my spine at the silence that followed. I checked my front door and there wasn't even anyone there. I was hearing things now? First a strange, disturbing phone call... and now i'm hearing things. 

Gravity Falls is driving me insane.

I sighed and checked every OTHER room just in case I wasn't being robbed or anything. Luckily, It was just me.

I brushed it off the best I could and got dressed. But, I failed horribly. That was all that was really even on my mind after that. I hear another knock. But this time on my... Kitchen door. It was coming from the kitchen itself. I ran from the living room to the door and opened it normally. No one. 

I walked inside. Everything looked untouched except for a single cabinet that was wide open. I walked over to it. Inside was nothing but My Journal, and a note. 

I read it and my eyes widened a little bit more as I continued. And for once in my time here, I felt like... I was in deep trouble. I got in deeper than i could have ever imagined. I remembered the bottomless pit and crumbled the paper. 

I slightly jumped at ANOTHER knock. But this one at my front door. 

I felt a pang of worry through my body causing me to stay frozen there. Waiting. I heard the knock again after a minute and walked over to the door. I opened it and to my surprise saw Dipper. I quickly slid the paper into my pocket. "D-Dipper? W-What are you doing here?" I asked. I looked behind me for my own safety.
