Gosh, I really should've gotten this done sooner. I put it off for months, then school started, and it was a mess, but here I am! I'm not dead!

"Dipper, did you raise the dead again?"

Of course, I was confused, and anyone would've been; I would certainly remember raising the dead!

And then I remembered what Great Uncle Ford had told us, about Mt. Ebott and the monsters.

Crap!

Why would I let her go on ahead?

And so I did what any sensible human would do: run towards where I heard her yell. What I saw when I got there, my brain did not comprehend. So, let's get this completely straight. There were two skeletons, two… goats?, a lizard, a fish, and in the very back, I spotted a girl holding a flower pot and a diary. Mabel was there, too, of course. In fact, maybe she'd better tell this one, because I still don't understand this madness.

Hehe, thanks, bro-bro. You're the best sometimes, y'know! But most of the time you're just a big dork! (Shut up!)

So, as I saw it, there was this small skeleton with a blue jacket, who we'll call "Dead Jake" for now. (I think you mean "whom".) Nerd! This is exactly why you couldn't get Wendy! (Ooooooooh, savage!)

Candy! When did you get here? (A few seconds ago while you two were arguing.)

Oh, okay. (Is it okay if I write in this?)

Maybe later, but right now I'm telling how we met the monsters! (Oooh, scary! Okay, I'll wait!)

And now to the story! Dead Jake was staring at me like how Dip-Dop stares into space sometimes. Don't tell him I said that!

It was for obvious reasons, obviously. I mean, I did kinda make a scene back there. Well, there was another skeleton who was a lot bigger than Dead Jake, like twice his size! He had a red scarf and was all cool and stuff and when he talked, he sounded like Skeletor. (That sentence was a mess..) Hey, Dipper, look! Something cool in the woods! (..Like I'd fall for that.) Aww, worth a shot..

But anyway, the red-scarfed Skeletor looked at me, then Dead Jake, then back at me.

"Sans, do you know this human?"

Dead Jake looked at red-scarfed Skeletor, then at me, then back at red-scarfed Skeletor.

"C'mon, Papy, you know that's impossible."

But something about the way he said it just bugged me. This may sound odd and Dipper-ish, but even though what he said should've made sense to anyone with at least half a brain (My half is right), but he seemed uncertain with himself. Just then Dipper came bursting through the bushes.

"Mabel!"

He looked relieved to see me in one piece, at least until he saw the beings in front of us. He looked like he had just had a heart attack, wide-eyed and in complete shock.

For some time, the two of us just stared at the six seven of them. Dipper slowly but surely regained control of his senses, and the human in the back stepped forward, apparently tired of this silent staring contest. She cleared her throat. She held a flower pot in her arms, I noticed. The flower was turned away, which was a shame. I like to admire nature's beauty.

"Um, excuse me, but do you, um," she didn't seem to know what she was trying to say.

I tilted my head at her.

Dipper interrupted.

"Can I ask a few questions?" he looked at her with those big, blue, curious eyes he gets when he has a chance to learn something. Why he's so excited about learning, I will never understand.

To my surprise, she nodded.

"First off," he gestured to the six monsters, "What exactly are they?" Silly Dipper, you know this! The seemingly male...Goat? Let's go with that. The seemingly male goat stepped forward.

"Forgive us for any shock or panic we may have caused," he bowed politely, "But we are monsters from the mountain over yonder. My name is Asgore, king of the monsters." Asgore straightened, "And we would like to know where the nearest, er, civilization lies."

Dipper seemed satisfied with this answer, so in return he'd give an answer of his own, "There's a village called Gravity Falls just East of here." As always, his internal compass was spot on. "If you come with us, we'll show you." He turned and so did I. To victory! To friendship! To adventure! To weird! To Gravity Falls! Let's lead a group of monsters there, because that's smart! But just as we started walking back to the little town over yonder, we were startled by a high-pitched, quick, echoing noise that sounded remarkably like sneezing. We both spun around at once, slightly confused, because that noise didn't seem like it could come from any of the seven who stood before us.

Well, turns out we were wrong about one thing. There were eight.

Dipper was the first to speak, again.

"Did...Did that flower just sneeze?"

And for whatever reason, that was the only seemingly logical explanation.

If my writing style seems different, it's probably because I'm currently reading the book Chime by Franny Billingsley, and I kind of fell in love with the style. Seriously, though, it's an amazing book and I just had to give a small shout out to it. But, anyway, I FINALLY UPDATED. Hurrah! Congratulate me! Or throw things at me, whichever you prefer! Not exactly proud but it's alright.
