Alone in the woods, a noise could be heard. But like the ancient proverb... Would it make a noise if nobody is there to hear it? Who knows but there certainly was something happening, and it wasn't good.

"CRACK, CRUMBLE"

Someone is interested.

Over the seas and far away... Two old men were sailing. Away and searching for many different unlikely entities and cryptid beings. Currently on their bucket list was the Kraken, a squid/octopus of gigantic proportions. Idly looking out to the vastness of water was Stan. Still reminiscing over his memories in Gravity Falls, thinking about his past of conning people out of their money. A dangerous act.

"Hey Ford." he turned to his brother, calmer than the ocean in its current state. "Heh, when did we have the summer with the kids again?"

"Hahaha. My, it's been years Stanley. What brought that up?"

"Ahm, I'm not too sure, something making me feel... trapped? Like I'm in a cage." He looked back out to sea and continued to reminisce. "Like there's a big part of it all that I am forgetting. What was the name of that one guy? Syph?"

Ford looked at him with serious eyes and walked over to him briskly. "Stanley, I have told you before how dangerous it is to think about that one summer." Ford placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Yeah, yeah. I know." He grunted. "Don't you feel like something's kinda wrong though?"

"... How about we look for this Kraken instead, huh? We are really close." He showed the map to Stan with careful enthusiasm.

"Sure thing, Ford." Stan said with a smile. Deciding it was easier not to ask more questions.

The next few minutes were still and quiet, almost painfully so. That was until they ended up in the centre of nothing. The eye of the storm, as it were. Something big was swimming underneath them. Something massive.

The boat shook and Ford was at the ready with his gear, Stan held on to the side as the rocking got more intense, then it appeared, a long black tentacle came swinging down onto the Stan-o-war. The two of them screaming a war cry at the beast now attacking their boat.
