Rising From Gravity [Discontinued]

Chapter 011: Spazzy Pazzy II

Dipper, Mabel, Soos, and Wally walked through the front door of the Mystery Museum, laughing.

"I knew that she wouldn't be all of that but come on." Wally said.

Mabel laughed as she turned to Dipper, "I don't see why you aren't laughing Dip." She said.

"I thought it was really cool." Dipper said, as he rubbed his arm nervously.

"Come on Dipper," Wally said, "There's no way you could actually believe that stuff, she only knew your name because it's on your shirt!" He said.

"Well..." Dipper searched for an answer as he cheeks started to turn red.

"You're not serious... Do you like her?" Mabel asked.

"What?!" Dipper squeaked, "Of course not, why would you think that?" He asked.

"Why are your cheeks all red?" Soos asked.

"They are?!" Dipper asked, earning giggles from his siblings.

"Ah, young love." Soos chuckled.

"Don't worry Dipper, if it'll make you feel better..." Wally felt his own cheeks heat up in embarrassment, "I sorta... have a thing for... Mari." He said.

Mabel face-palmed. Great, now her brothers were falling for two wannabe psychics, how quaint.

"Are you sure this is where that Crystal Ball wanted us to go?" Pacifica asked, as she trampled through the snow.

"I'm positive. When have I ever been wrong before Sister?" Mari asked.

Well, she had her there.

The two sisters spent nearly an hour and a half walking through the snow filled forest. According to Mari's crystal ball, there was supposed to be something to help them with their problem.

"How much farther do we have to walk, my toes are probably gone by now." Pacifica said.

"Keep complaining and it will most likely take longer." Mari said.

Suddenly, they heard familiar laughter ring out in the forest.

"Ooohhh..." Pacifica groaned, "Don't tell me..."

"Well, well, look what the cat dragged in." said a young, male voice.

"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be living it up in some indoor jacuzzi?" Mari asked.

"I should be asking you that. So what brings you two so far out into the woods. Knowing Ms. Fussy-Britches, it must be something important." said the voice.

Pacifica growled as her amulet glowed fiercely.

"Calm yourself Pacifica." Mari ordered.

Reluctantly, Pacifica regained her composure.

"If you must know, someone's found a fourth Amulet." Mari said.

"Impossible, even I know that there's only three in all existence." said the voice.

"Well believe it. He's blocking my mind reading!" Pacifica said.

"Of course, you always need to know everything. But fine, I'll help you."

"Well good. But, would you come down from the trees, we'd like to be able to see you, thank you very much." Mari said.

A figured lowered themselves from the trees with a white cape fluttering around them. They gently touched the ground with a short burst of blue light.

"What's with the cape? Are you some wannabe superhero?" Pacifica asked.

The boy removed his sunglasses with a smirk, "This coming from some Carnie."
He said.

"Whatever Gideon." Pacifica spat, "Are you going to help us, or not?" She asked.

The smirk on Gideon's face grew, "Why not?"

The Pines triplets were currently stationed in the living room while Ford was giving one of his tours, a full day after they visited the Tent of Telepathy. This left the kids to their own devices until the Museum closed.

"Ugh." Wally groaned, "There isn't anything interesting on at all!"

"Try picking up a book." Dipper chuckled.

*ding-dong*

The triplets all exchanged glances to each other.

"Did someone order pizza?" Mabel asked.

"Not me." Wally said.

"I'm flat broke, how could I?" Dipper asked.

*ding-dong*

"Well, whoever it is, they better have a good reason for being here." Wally grumbled. He jumped off the sofa and started walking towards the door.

When he opened it, he was surprised to see whoever was on the other side.

"M-Mari? Pacifica? What are you two doing here?" Wally asked.

"Well I'll be... I thought everyone was kidding when they said you were Stanford's great nephew." Mari said.

"You still didn't answer my question." Wally said, as he raised a brow quizzically.

"Is your brother here?" Pacifica asked.

"Um... yeah. Look, there better be a reason for you two showing up on my doorstep unannounced." Wally said.

Dipper, at the mention of his name popped up beside his brother and gasped. "It's little ol' you!" Dipper exclaimed.

Pacifica nervously giggled. "Yeah, my song's quite catchy." She responded, as she placed her hand on her chin, "Now, I know we haven't formally met, but after yesterday's performance, I just couldn't get your laugh out of my head."

"You mean this one?" Dipper responded, imitating her gesture as he began laughing obnoxiously.

"Oh, what a delight! Now, when I saw you in the audience, I said to myself, 'Now there's a kindred spirit!'" She exclaimed, placing her hand on her hip. "Someone who appreciates the sparkly things in life."

"That's totally me!" Dipper exclaimed in shock, laughing. Suddenly, he began coughing up sequins, all landing on Pacifica's collar, decorating it in a wonderful fashion.

"Enchanting. Utterly enchanting." Pacifica whispered, admiring the sequins that lung below her, decorating her collar.

"Who is at the door?!" Ford yelled once again, from the gift shop.

"No one, Grunkle Ford!" Wally yelled back, as Pacifica began whispering.

"I appreciate your digressions. Now, Ford's no fan of mine. I don't know how a lemon so sour could be related to a peach so sweet." She commented, gesturing to Dipper.

"Pacifica!" Dipper responded in modesty, blushing slightly, "Aha ha!"

"What do you say we step away from here, and chat a bit more. Perhaps in my dressing room?" Mari offered.

"Oh! Makeovers. Yahoo!" Dipper exclaimed, leaning in to poke her. Upon the impact, Pacifica nervously giggled, rubbing her stomach in pain.

"Excuse me, I need to chat with my brother for a minute." Wally said, as he gripped his brother's arm and pulled him aside.

Once they were out of earshot, Dipper pulled his arm back, "What's your deal Wally?" He asked.

"Look, I know that they're famous and you're excited, but I got a bad feeling." Wally said.

Dipper scoffed, "Is this payback for what happened with the gnomes?" He asked.

"Dipper..." Wally sighed, "Just... promise me you'll be all right." He said.

Dipper saluted. "No prob Bob!" He said.
