Traveling through the calm roads of Oregon, there is a bus, a bus almost empty.
-«If you judge me for seeing my scratches, scars and bandages, you’ll say I’m, the coolest kid on the block, or a troublemaker, and you’ll be wrong, unless you think I’m cool, and in that case, thanks, but the true is different» - thinks for himself a boy, around 12 years old, blond hair, dark blue eyes, wearing a brown and dark brown cap with a dark brown star in front, reddish-orange t-shirt with a navy blue vest over it, gray shorts, white knee-high socks with a red stripe, black sneakers with white soles, his arms legs and part of his face are covered in scratches, bandages, scars, and even the mark of a dog’s bite.
-«My name is Mason Northpines but everyone calls me “Dipper” because I have a birthmark with the shape of the Big Dipper constellation in my forehead, that’s why I prefer to wear a cap and bangs, to cover it, not because I’m really ashamed of it, but because everybody else finds it funny; I was saying you’ll be wrong, because I’m really a nerd, good grades, video games and tabletop games enjoyer, and pretty curious, to a reckless degree, you must understand that when you live a boring life like mine in Piedmont, California, where there’s nothing exciting after you have seen it all, you look for something that makes you feel that burning passion again»
The road begins to show lines of trees to both sides of the road, Dipper looks at the new landscape, filled with pine trees, cliffs, and a waterfall -«Summer has begun, and I hope to find that burning passion in the place I was asked to spend all summer, to this hidden town in the middle of Oregon»- He looks at a big sign over a Cliff that reads “Welcome to Gravity Falls”
TOURIST TRAPPED AU (Part 1 of 2)
-«Maybe you wonder why I accepted to go from the sunny California to the wild forests of Oregon, to understand that, I must tell you about my early life, my parents met in California, they married, and apparently they loved so much that decided to combine their surnames, Northwest and Pines, in a single one, Northpines… sweet, right?, if they loved each other so much, why did they divorce?, why dad said he had no option but to back to Gravity Falls?, why did they… took her away from me?»- =sob= -«Sorry, I’m going ahead of myself, but yes, one day, dad received the news that his father had not much time, and he had to go back to Gravity Falls, but that would mean he had no option but to stay there, as the last member of the Northwest family, he had the obligation to stay in Gravity Falls, he couldn’t explain why, he said the reason was just revealed from mouth of Northwest to ear of Northwest during the deathbed, an obligation that was passed from fathers to children for the last 150 years, but even if he didn’t knew all the details, he knew it was something serious, but mom didn’t want to leave California, she had her career made there, they couldn’t, or didn’t want to compromise with each other, so in the most devastating decision they could have taken, they decided to divorce, I was going to live with mom, while dad took with him who was, the most important person in my life»
Dipper looks through the window the sky, that was starting to show the orange shades of the twilight, he also saw a water tower, where someone was painting the outline of a muffin.
-«That could have been all, but yesterday, after 5 years, the unexpected happened, dad appeared in the door of our house, we didn’t cut all communication with him, but he never visited us until now, and I could see, he really missed us, he told us that he had some business to attend in different countries, and like now there was someone else with Northwest blood in Gravity Falls, he could go to attend them, this travel could last all summer, and asked my mom to come with him, he begged her for the change to prove her that he still loved her as the first day, and maybe they could give another try to their marriage, mom accepted without doubt, I didn’t know she missed him so much, and for me, he also begged me to make him a big favor, if not like from son to father, at least from man to man, he asked me to go to Gravity Falls and look out for the member of the family who is staying there in his place, the person he took with him, the person who was the most important for me, my twin sister, Pacifica»
Near the out of the town, a girl of long blond hair with a purple tiara, three bangs, dark blue eyes, round and bright purple earrings, wearing a lavender shirt with the face of a bear printed on it, a purple jacket, a periwinkle belt, purple mittens, lavender shorts, black leggings and black boots with cream colored fronts, sits on a wood bench, with her right elbow over her right leg, her head resting over her right hand, while her left arm rests over her left leg, and looks pretty bored towards the road.
-Miss Northwest- Pacifica turns to who is calling her, still looking as if she was bored and sees Soos, standing up close - You should go ahead to the Mystery Shack, it will be dark soon -Aggg, Soos – Pacifica says- for the last time, there are no more Northwests in Gravity Falls, my surname is Northpines, and I also told you that you can call me Pacifica- Then turns her sight towards the roofs of a mansion that sands out over the pine trees – This is my first day out of that cage in a pretty-pretty long time, and the least I need is to be treated as if I still was inside of it.
-Ow, sorry miss…- He stops when Pacifica gives him an angry look – I mean, Pacifica, but the bus is having a half-hour delay, you should go back while I wait here for your brother -No, I won’t, I haven’t seen Dipper in years, I want that the first person he meets here is me -But if you haven’t see him in years, how are you going to recognize him?
Pacifica smiles while takes out a compact mirror from one of the pockets of her jacket, and opens it, looking her reflection in it –Is easy, Soos, we are twins, so he must not look to different from me, but for what mom has told me, he’s some kind of nerd who is always in some kind of trouble, so maybe he must have freckles, brackets, bottom-bottle glasses, and a lot of book under his arms, so he will not look as attractive as me -Hey, the bus is arriving – Soos says while points in direction to the bus.
Pacifica looks how the bus stops some meters from them, only Dipper, who carries a travel backpack with a roll bed on it, goes out of the bus; when Pacifica looks at him for the first time in years, her eyes turns sparkling, her cheeks turns red from the blush, while sees Dipper in slow motion going out of the bus. Pacifica closes her compact mirror, and stars to sweat nervously –Ok, forget that last part- She place the mirror in the pocket she took it off, and stands up
-Dipper, is that you? – Dipper hears, when he turns to see who is talking to him, he froze at his first glance of Pacifica in years, who he sees approaching to him in slow motion, with her arms towards him, but before he can react, Pacifica is giving him a hug, that makes him blush nervously – I can’t believe it, is you, is really you, it’s been a long time!- She separates from him, and when she looks at him in detail, he notices all the scratches, scars and bandages that covers almost all the parts of his visible skin –OH MY GOSH DIPPER!, you look as if you have had a fight with a wild cat, are you ok? What happened to you?
Dipper looks nervously to Pacifica, sweating hard, he smiles nervously and waves with his right hand – He-he-hey Paci, what’s up? – Pacifica looks at him firmly, but after some seconds where none of the two moved or made a sound – Uh, Hey Paci what’s up? is that all you are going to tell me for the first time in years? – her face turned serious, while Dipper remains nervous and sweating – Ahh… I don’t know… what else where you expecting?! – He shrugs while smiles big showing his teeth
-I don’t know maybe a how are you? You have grown up, maybe a hug a kiss or a rizz, SOMETHING THAT TELLS ME YOU MISSED ME AND NOT SOMETHING THAT SOUNDS AS IF YOU JUST SAW ME YESTERDAY, didn’t you miss me? – Dipper remains silent. Pacifica face palms herself, downing her head while turns to Soos and walks towards him – I get it, I wasted my time waiting here for you, instead to go to the shack and install myself there and avoid the embarrassment – Wait – says Dipper, stretching his right arm towards her – Are we going to stay with Gruncle Stan? I thought we were going to stay in the Mansion – Why do you want to stay in that bird cage when the real life exist out of it? – Pacifica says in a clearly frustrated voice while open wide her arms, then cross her arms, and looks Dipper over her shoulder with a cold look, pointing with her head towards the mansion, and Dipper looks the roofs of the Northwest Mansion – But if you want to stay there, you can do it, the servants will pamper you all you want – She starts to walk, with her arms crossed, followed by Soos.
Dipper turns towards them, and follows them, keeping his distance – (low voice) Good job Manson, what a good impression for the first time you see her after so many years… (sigh) but I never expected she had grown up in such a hottie – Suddenly, his face turns totally red, and pulls his cap down with both hands, like trying to totally hide inside it – (low voice) Did I just say that I feel attracted to my own sister?, man, I must be the sickest man alive – He leaves his cap, takes a deep breath, and exhales – (low voice) I said I was going to look out for her, now I suppose I’ll have to protect her from my own carnal desires too, maybe the best will be to not to get too close to her for too long.
Soos looks Dipper following them – It looks he’ll come with us after all – Then turns to Pacifica, who keep walking with her arms crossed, but her head low – He looks as a nice guy, don’t you think you were a little cold with him? – Didn’t you hear him? – She says, but in her tone, is noticeable that she feels hurt – Apparently he didn’t miss me at all, I bet he would have preferred to stay in California instead to pass the summer with me – When she noticed tears were coming from her eyes, she walks a little faster, and cleans her tears with her hand, in the comfort of not being seen by Dipper not Soos.
Finding himself suddenly between both Northpines twins, Soos stops and shrugs, Dipper passes next to him, and Soos walks with him – Hello Mr. North… em… pines?, my name is Soos, and I’m the technician of the Mystery Shack – Hi Soos - Dipper says, keeping his head low – Call me Dipper, everyone does it – Ok Dipper… umm, sorry to say this, but you didn’t look very happy to have a reunion with your sister – (sigh) Is not that, I’m happy to see her, but – And he looks towards Pacifica – She looks so different from last time I saw her that I… literally froze – His face shows an expression of seriousness, and begins to walk straight – But I’ll figure out how to solve this – You must – Soos says – After all, you’ll be sharing bedroom- Dipper stops, eyes wide open, while Soos continues walking – Wait, WHAT DID YOU SAY?!
Moments later, Dipper and Pacifica find themselves in the attic of the Mystery Shack, looking astonished the place, two simple beds, a night table with an old oil lamp, a whack-a-mole game under a blanket, and – There is a goat on this room!, gross – Pacifica says while looks a goat over one of the beds, chewing the blanket – Ok, I was expecting the little space, but I never expected this little – Well, we could get more space if you just send some of this back to the mansion – Dipper says pointing with his left thumb a wall behind him, made of pink suitcases that says “Pacifica”, that blocks the view of the other bed - Why did you bring so much luggage?, you house is not that far, if you need something, you just could go there and bring it – Pacifica turns to him placing her hands on her hips, and bending towards him – You still don’t get it, right pointdexter?, I brought all this because I want to be out of that house as much as possible - then turns sad, showing her back to Dipper, while she rubs her right arm with her left hand – But is not like if you care, right? – Paci, I... – What? – But Dipper remains in silence, not knowing what to say – Just, stay in your side of the room Dipper, I’ll try to pass as invisible as possible – Then the goat burps – And you, GET OUT OF MY BED! – She screams, pointing the door to the goat.
The next day, Dipper is out of the bathroom, wearing a white shirt, blue shorts, and a white towel around his right arm, and bags under his eyes, he yawns. The door opens, and Pacifica comes out, covering her body only with a towel, leaving visible the upper part of her growing breast – You take so long to bathe – Dipper says in a voice that reflex he still feels tired – I love to have a clean hair – she moves her head, her hair waves, hitting Dipper in the face with it, before she walks to their room, Dipper then goes inside the bathroom, closing the doors – (yawn) I barely could sleep thinking that she was on the other side of the room, where I just could stand up, go to her and… - He open wide his eyes, and slaps himself - man, I’m really a sick person – He takes off his clothes, open the curtains, and goes inside the tub – I can’t be like this all the summer, maybe I should move to the mansion, that way I wouldn’t think about her all the time… no, I decided to take the responsibility to look for her, and I’ll do it (yawn), even if I can’t sleep during summer – Dipper opens the faucet, the water starts to run, and immediately, a girly scream is heard around the shack.
In their room, Pacifica who is already wearing the clothes of the upper part of her body is putting her feet inside her leggings, when the door slams, and Dipper, who is now wearing just a towel around his waist, goes in – You used all the hot water! – Wait, you can run out of hot water here?... hmp, but what’s the problem?, I though cold-hearted persons like you loved cold things – Dipper places his right hand over his eyes – (sigh) Paci, I know I have been acting distant, but there is but a good reason… – when he lows her hand to see her, he notices Pacifica is standing up, lifting her leggings, and has a glance of her lavender panties before the leggings cover her; Dipper’s face turns red, and then turn his back to her, covering his manhood with both hands – Oh yeah?, and what is that good reason? – Dipper starts to sweat, before running to the other side of the suitcases’ wall – I’ll tell you later!
Moments later, in the Shack’s store, Dipper is placing bubble head dolls of Gruncle Stan on a shelf, he looks at his left, and sees Pacifica at the end of the shelf, cleaning the outside of a jar filled with eyes with a spray and a hanky, he tries to move towards her, but stops, takes more bubble heads from a box at his feet, and keeps placing them on the shelf. Gruncle Stan comes in, burping while he holds a soda can in his right arm, and three wood arrow signs under it –Allriteallrite, look alive people, I need someone to go hammer up these signs in the spooky part of the forest – Not me - Dipper says quickly. – My fingers are not to be smashed – replies Pacifica while cleans some of the bubblehead dolls Dipper placed on the shelf. – Uh, also not me – Soos, who is over a small ladder, screwing a shelf on a wall, replies – Nobody asked you, Soos – Stan says to Soos, before turning to Wendy, who is in the cash desk, with her feet on the table, reading a magazine - Wendy! I need you to put up these signs! – I would, but… – Wendy says, without take her eyes away from the magazine, and stretching her left arm – uhh… can’t… uhh…reach it. -I’d fire all of you if I could – Stan says annoyed.
Pacifica keeps cleaning the dolls, approaching to Dipper, she touches his butt with her waist, shocking Dipper, who jumps a step ahead with Pacifica looking at him, and Dipper raises his right arm – I’LL GO! – says while he blushes and sweats – That’s the spirit, boy – Stan says, and he gives the signs to Dipper, and turns to Pacifica – Do you want me to go with you? – Pacifica ask – No thanks, I can do it for myself, you know, alone… away from… eh… you? – says Dipper before to giggle nervously, Pacifica looks angry, Dipper runs to the door, immediately when he goes out, the spray Pacifica was holding, crashes in the door, Pacifica looks angry, and raise his right fist – I hope a bear chews you and spits you, you moron! – says while everyone look at her.
