"It was just another typical day for the common folk of Reverse Falls, the sun was shining and birds were chirping. Well, unless you're me. Pacifica, the one that's being attacked by gnomes. And next to me, is my cousin Gideon. This might seem impossible, but trust me. I couldn't make this up if I wanted to."

"Pacifica, I think we should start running!"

"It all started when I first arrived in this tiny town named, as you've heard, Reverse Falls."

"WHY ARE YOU MONOLOGUING?"

A few days ago before the insanity began...

"PACIFICA! GIDEON! I NEED YOU TO PUT UP SIGNS FOR THE SHACK!"

The man shouting is the uncle of Pacifica and the father of Gideon. Ever since Pacifica arrived to her cousin's house to stay for her vacation, she became free labour for her uncle's scam shop the "Mystery Shack". The only thing mysterious there was how much superglue the man used to create his so called "mythical creatures".

"We're sleeping!" the kids shouted as they were having fun.

"JUST GET DOWN HERE!"

"We're dead!"

"GET DOWN HERE BEFORE I COME UP THERE!"

"ugh, fine..."

Could this day have gotten any worse for Pacifica? First she was bitten by so many mosquito bites on her hand, and under close inspection, itspelled out a word..."beware"? 'That's weird,' Pacifuca thought to herself, 'oh wait, it actually looks more like "bewarb", dumb mosquitos.' To add on, she hasn't found her summer crush yet! Judge all you want, but a teenage girl needs to leave a good memory for her summer. The only time she had gotten close was when I rigged my confession. 'By only giving him,' yes', 'definitely' and 'absolutely' you're a genius Pacifica, now he can't say no! Although he just ran away in paradoxical fear.' Pacifica thinks as she continued to plot on her plans for a summer love.

After the both of them walked down the flight stairs from the attic, they saw Robbie on the counter, and...

"Hey little dudes!"

"Hi Deuce!"

That's the handy man of the shack, Deuce. The man might look muscular and strong on the outside, but he has a soft and loving heart on the inside.

"KIDS GET OVER HERE, DON'T MAKE ME SAY IT AGAIN!"

They walked inside the living room and Uncle Bud was sitting down and watching TV as usual, he looked at them and pointed at the signs on the table.

"You know what to do kids." he told the two as he continued to look at the TV.

"Yes Uncle bud/dad..." they answeredas they took the signs and left the house.

The both of them wander into the creepy forest, they have decided to walk apart so they could finish the job quicker. While Pacifica was nailing the signs, she saw a black, shadowy figure walking towards her, afraid, she held up my hammer, and readied to defend herself.

"Stay back! I have a hammer!"

The figure stopped.

"Woah woah...Calm down, My...name is, uh....norm...al...man." the figure stutters in fear.

"You mean Norman?"

"...Yup"

She walked closer to Norman, 'huh, he's kinda cute, with his stuttering, and he does have a really cool black hoodie. Summer romance, eh? PERFECT.' she grins as she finishes her thought.
