Dante's POV

It was about a week ago when me my twin sister Tracey and Jocelyn woke up in that cave without our memories and wandered into a town called Gravity Falls. Erschie and Star sat around my neck in their necklace form as we wandered into the mall looking for something to eat since we haven't had much to eat in a while, yet no one said they were hungry, I thought that we should eat something instead of nothing.

"So we are getting something to eat okay cause we have to eat even Erschie and Star are saying we should eat we're only human." I told them lying about Erschie and Star hoping it would get them to eat. 'You shouldn't lie you know, it becomes 2nd nature far too easily.' Erschie stated sternly as I smirked at his comment.

Tracey walked up to me as I tensed still not quite over what transpired between us a week ago hence why I haven't been able to exactly explain our twins status. She put a hand on my shoulder as she whispered. "Dante we didn't want to eat because we didn't think you'd have any money on you like us. So we decided not to ask as we thought it might hurt your pride." She said as at first it gave me shivers with her being so close but I realized that I didn't know if I had money to buy any food.

I asked if Erschie or Star knew if I had any money but all I got from them was. 'You have $10 in each of your inner jacket pockets, try the lotto to your left.' They told me as I reached in my jacket and found said ten bucks in each pocket and decided to walk over a get a lotto ticket which happens to be free the first time. Taking the ticket back with me I showed it to the girls while I pulled out the ten bucks in my pocket as they had wide eyes in surprise. "See trust in me and we'll go far of that I'm certain." I told them as they nodded sarcastically and giggled quietly.

As we ordered burgers and drinks from the food court we all kinda ravaged into the food well I did the girls just ate faster than a normal person would but I practically devoured everything whole, but slowed down as people began to fill out the chairs around us. We ate our food peacefully as I began to scratch out the lottery ticket until the girls started getting up prompting me to follow. Exploring the mall was fun as I learned things about this town, the girls just went around looking at the sights and trying the free samples of stuff, we even met a fortune teller who and I quote. "Just had to tell our fortune." Personally I didn't think much of it since when do tellers actually predict or tell you anything of importance to you specifically. She lead us into her shop of arcane objects as she had a back room saved specifically for fortunes.

"I see great power and a life of adventure and deep sadness in you, but I also see love...one transcending life and death my dear." The teller told Tracey as she smiled and thanked this Lady Fortuna Reader of Fates, she was a pretty woman probably in her twenties with the usual get up of fortune tellers ritualistic rings on her fingers, bracelets, necklaces, and a head piece with pearls in them.

Next was Jocelyn who seemed to believe a little less than Tracey did, she gave the teller her hand and she was told. "You lived a posh and easy life one you weren't deserving of... but love opened your heart and you rose to live the life of a queen and a happy one at that." Jocelyn thanked the teller and left coming back over as her face was one of disbelief and surprise. It was my turn next as I gave her my palm she took it happily a smile on her face.

While reading my palm her eyes widened as if some secret was revealed about me to her. "Y-Your soul has something Dark inside it with light shining through the cracks. Something powerful is watching you... the question remains is it watching over you and your sister? Or stalking you?" Her words were actually creeping me out as I felt a chill crawl up my spine. "Um yeah... I'm leaving now." When she grabbed my arm. "Once you trigger it The Devil's power...it will call to you, torment you, you'll be helpless to resist!" She shouted as I took back my hand as she vanished from sight. After that I simply ran out of the room as I didn't want the others to see how freaked out I was when I bumped into someone outside.
