The Book and the Watch

Tourist Trapped

Author's Notes (A/N from now on): Welp! This is my first time writing in a few years. And my first time posting anything I have written. 

Fair warning for anyone who came here expecting drastic changes or an original story mixing these concepts, this will mostly still follow the plot Gravity Falls canonically has, maybe with a few original chapters for Ben 10 plotpoints sometime down the road. Why? Because I'm trying to get back into writing as much as I did before and starting with something simple, inserting a character or characters from fandom 1 into fandom 2's storyline, to help get my head back in the game seems like a good way to do it.

There also won't be any shipping done that didn't happen in the show. Make any arguments you want, I can't write shipping.

Don't be afraid to take a few days to read a single chapter. Since I'm essentially taking the original episodes and adding onto them, these will be rather long chapters. This one alone is 11,000 words without this intro or the outro.

This story can also be found on FanFiction.net for any who prefer that site.

And without further ado, anyone still interested: Enjoy

"Ah, summer break." a young voice begins to narrate as the hot summer sun shines down on a family having a nice grill out.

"So do you want cheese on that hun?" the father asks his loving wife, flipping a burger patty on his sizzling grill.

"Sure, Clyde." The mother answers, eating another burger at a picnic table with several of their friends. Two of their children run around in circles, laughing at the fun they're having.

"A time for leisure, recreation, and taking 'er easy..." The narrator continues.

"Unless you're us." A second, slightly younger narrator continues.

A golfcart with two children, a boy in an orange shirt, dark blue vest, and with brown hair who is driving the golfcart, and a girl with much longer brown hair, a purple sweater decorated with white stars, braces, and yellow star shaped earrings riding with him, screaming at the top of their lungs fly through a billboard and swerve onto a forest trail, then drive off a small cliff! Behind them, a loud buzzing noise can be heard, and several trees are being knocked over by some grunting creature!

"It's getting closer!" the girl exclaims, looking back at the beast behind them!

A looming shadow of the thing crawls over them as it catches up, but a second shadow can be seen flying around the larger. The main monster tries to grab the golfcart but misses as they briefly speed up and drive over a small boulder, making them spin in the air before landing safely. A gross spewing noise, akin to squeezing ketchup out o a bottle improperly can be heard.

"My name is Dipper." The narrator who is also the boy explains, "The girl about to puke is my sister Mabel." The girl, 'Mabel', can be seen holding her hand over her mouth with puffed out cheeks looking panicked and nauseas at the same time. "You may be wondering what we're doing in a golfcart fleeing from a creature of unimaginable horror while some other creature is trying to help us."

The larger monster pulls a tree out of the ground, takes a swipe at the fly like entity spewing a substance onto it, and then throws it ahead of the golfcart! "Look out!" Mabel shouts, pointing to the tree as it lands directly in front of them! The golfcart swerves as Dipper tries to avoid the tree but is ultimately unable too!

"Rest assured, there is a perfectly logical explanation." Dipper continues as a narrator, "Let's rewind."

"It all began when our parents decided we could use some fresh air. They shipped us up north to a sleepy town called Gravity Falls, Oregon, along with Ben and Gwen, the grandchildren of one of our elderly neighbors. We were sent to stay at our great uncle's place in the woods."
