My Little Gravity Foals

by SummerCandyPegasus

A Night In The Woods

I stared up at the ceiling above me. My twin sister, Mabel, snored quietly on the other side of the room. I looked at the clock, which read 11:38 in bright neon letters. Finally, I decided to go for a walk in the woods. It was dangerous to go alone, but Mabel slept lightly, like me, and I knew she'd wake up. She always did. I sat up and put on my favorite hat, the white and blue one with the pine tree. Then I put my black tennis shoes on, double knotting each with a neat bow. The wooden floorboards of the attic where we slept creaked as I walked to the door. Mabel sat up, trying to rub the sleepiness from her eyes.

"Dipper, where the heck are you going? It's too late, go back to bed." she said, her voice thick with drowsiness.

"I'm going out for a walk. I can't sleep." I responded. Mabel sat up on her bed and yawned.

"If you're going, I'm going with you." she said with a determined stare. She pulled a black sweater- the one with a yellow lightning bolt- over her head, getting up to go put her shoes on.

We walked into the forest together, carrying bright LED flashlights with us. Mud from that day's rain coated the soles of my shoes, and water dripped from the needles of the pines. Raindrops batted at the branches, threatening to drench us. I'd had the good sense to not bring my '3' journal out into this weather. It was too valuable to lose. Mabel and I walked silently together through the woods, following a lazily curved path paved with pine needles. Of course, I was always a bit on edge, but who wouldn't be? These were the woods, in Gravity Falls, of all places. Dangerous things live here, but hey, the town's still here, so nothing could be too terrible. In the darkness I spotted a soft, orange glow, warm like a fire. In a particularly thick pine tree, a ring of golden light illuminated the night, surrounding a jet-black oval as big as a person. Mabel must've noticed it too, for she ponted to it and asked,

"Hey, what's that?"

"I don't know, I've never seen it before. Maybe it's a portal." I responded, somewhat sarcastically. Mabel, however, didn't get it, and proceeded to walk right up to the portal and poke it with a stick.

In the blink of an eye, the portal started to suck her in like a vaccum. In the panic, we both dropped our flashlights as I raced toward her, grabbing her leg. Yet, pull as I might, I wasn't making much of a difference.

"Aaaaaaaaaaahh!" we screamed as the portal swallowed us.

Author's Note:

Little by little, guys, little by little. The ponies shall come soon. I've been working on this story since 2/22/14.

SHORT CHAPTER, I KNOW. NEXT ONE WILL BE LONGER, I PROMISE. A LOT LONGER.

Yeah, I know Mabel and Dipper might be a tad OOC in this fic. Advice always helps. :) Pointing out the obvious won't.

Yes, I know the indents may be weird. I do it the manual way, with 5 spaces. Not the tab key. I may go back and fix it.

Every chapter will have a fun cipher to decode, like in Gravity Falls' end credits and in various places throughout the show. Some are spoilers and lampshading, others are just easter eggs. DO NOT POST DE-CODES IN COMMENTS OR I WILL DELETE THEM. Remember, three letters back!
