Man In the Mirror - A Gravity Falls Fanfiction...

A/N - Well here is another Gravity Falls fanfiction. I really shouldn't be doing this since I'm almost done with one and I have two out still, but I really wanted to try this idea and I thought this would be perfect since they haven't done anything paranormal with this yet. So as normal I own nothing from Gravity Falls it all belongs to Alex Hirsch and I hope you all ENJOY chapter one! :)

Chapter 1

The Mirror

"Careful with that!" Stanford Pines yelled as his niece and nephew carried an old antic mirror up the front steps of The Mystery Shack. "That thing is old and priceless, it was my grandfather's and if you break it, you're paying for it to be repaired." Stan finished explaining as he watched the young twins struggle with the item.

Meanwhile Dipper and Mabel Pines were indeed struggling with the old tall mirror. Pushing it up step after step seemed forever long and the more they pushed it, the heavier the mirror seemed. At this time, Dipper and Mabel wished that their friends Wendy and Soos had been there to help, but they were long gone.

"Grunkle Stan - " Dipper muttered to himself as he rolled his eyes at his great uncle's comment and continued to life the mirror up the flight of steps.

"Cheer up Dip; this will all be worth it because the mirror is beautiful and it will look nice in the gift shop." Mabel said with a smile.

Indeed the mirror was stunningly beautiful. The outside rim and back of the mirror was carved from hand, and small squiggly pattern lines went around the edge of the circle. Sparkling glass shined in the last rays of sunlight as they carried it up the steps. Wooden leaves came out on the corner of the edges along with stems.

"I just don't understand why we even need this mirror, it's not like he's selling it." Dipper complained once more. "If you ask me, it's just gonna take up space."

"Space for what?" Mabel asked in confusion as they heaved it up another step.

"I don't know, something more useful then an old mirror." Dipper stated with annoyance.

"Ugh, let it go, besides maybe once you see it in place, you'll think twice and like it." Mabel said with a smile.

"Whatever - " Dipper began as he rolled his eyes. "I'm just glad were almost done." Dipper said as they pulled it up yet another step.

"Right just three more steps to go!" Mabel added with a smile.

Together for the last three steps Dipper and Mabel pushed the mirror over the steps and they both took deep breaths when they made it to the landing. Instantly when the mirror was set down they both slid against each side of it and laid on the ground trying to catch their breath. After all, they deserved a break, right?

Theme Song

A little while later Dipper and Mabel stood in the Gift Shop of The Mystery Shack with their great uncle. Stan was setting up the mirror and making sure it was perfect while the twins stood to the side and watched (they were just happy that they didn't have to carry it anymore). When Stan was finished he backed up and smiled at

"This is gonna be the best item ever! It totally ties in with the shack!" Stan gloated as he placed his hands on his hips and smiled.

"Don't you say that about everything?" Dipper asked with confusion as he sent Stan

"Maybe..." Stan said as he trailed off. "But that's besides the point, I got a good feeling about this mirror, I can just feel it." Stan explained as he smiled once more.

"I don't know Grunkle Stan, something about this mirror is making me feel kind of...scared." Dipper said as he shuddered.

"Come on Dipper! There's no way this mirror can be part of you're supernatural mojo." Stan explained. "Maybe you're sweating problems back again." Stan added.

"Ha, ha, zing!" Mabel called with a laugh.

"It's not my sweating problem..." Dipper muttered in annoyance. "It's just that after everything I've seen and been through, I can just feel that something isn't right with this mirror at all." Dipper added as Stan rolled his eyes at him. "Maybe...maybe...we should just leave this one in storage?" Dipper asked with hope.

"Yeah I'll do that when Waddles flies." Stan said with a laugh.

Suddenly an awkward silence came over everyone as they all turned their heads to look at Waddles who was lying on the ground. When Waddles felt eyes on him, he turned his head up and looked at all his owner and her family with confusion and snorted before ignoring them and lying back down instantly.

"There proves my point!" Stan stated with a smile as he tuned and grabbed a towel and some Windex, he began to clean the mirror off.

"Besides this mirror is awesome! It's the most prettiest mirror I've ever seen!" Mabel added with a smile.

"Right, what you're sister said." Stan said as he looked at Dipper but pointed to Mabel.

"But - " Dipper began as he tried to talk them out of keeping the mirror out, Stan however cut him off.

"No but's, now don't even try anything with this mirror because if you break it, well let's just say things won't turn out well for you." Stan finished with a look.

With that he finished cleaning the mirror and walked out of the room with Mabel behind him. Dipper stayed and continued to look at the mirror once more and think about what his great uncle said. Could Dipper just be paranoid? It was possible to say the least. So he shrugged and followed behind Stan and Mabel soon enough.

If only he had turned around and noticed his own reflection in the mirror with a smirk on it's face...
