And so it should seem the town had gotten the better of me! I wonder, Mayfield, just how long have I been gone? At least a month but with this town, this stagnate little pond our captor tries to see as a haven...who knows how long it's been. I wonder if anyone here even remembers me, or knows my name.

It would be a shame to be forgotten, wouldn't it? Some would say that would be the greatest punishment of all. They're wrong on that, of course, but I suppose it could be frightening to some but I have never paid it much mind! I am a man who has tended to live most often in the present. The future after all is for....well, the future!

[And he laughs at his own poor excuse for a joke.]

Of course, I suppose it is possible some of you have found a way out! In fact perhaps I'm stuck here merely with drones!

But I doubt it.

[And Mabel thought to herself upon waking up this is not my beautiful bed. And this is not my beautiful attic. Or at the very least she's pretty sure it isn't. If it is then Grunkle Stan did some pretty heavy renovating while she was asleep. Mabel wouldn't put the possibility of Stan messing with her and Dipper's room past him. The idea that Stan would make the room so much nicer though? That was harder to believe. In fact of all the weird things that could and have happened in Gravity Falls it would be the weirdest as far as she was concerned.

The fact that Dipper is no where in sight bothers her a bit too. But that could mean he's just downstairs or in another room. And if that's the case then that means there's nothing to worry about because if Dipper isn't paranoid about something and could be exploring there should be no reason for her not to explore.

When I say she's going to be exploring? I mean quite literally and quite early in the morning. She is just going to be going room after room looking to see what's up with this place. And if you happen to be a vague shape in a bed?

She is just going to poke the hell out of you to wake you up and see who you are.]

Dipper? .....Grunkle Stan?

[Even if you look like a kid, MAYBE you could be Stan. You're asleep and all and covered n sheets and Stan could be a lot smaller without his shoes and hat as far as she knows.]

[Phone]

Hi! So I'm Mabel Pines and I'm pretty sure I'm lost! Lost or kidnapped but I think lost! Like I think I may have sleep walked into someone else's house which is weird because I haven't sleep-walked since I was nine! Apparently it was a reeeaaally big problem cause this one time I ended up back in the school and covered the arts and crafts room in super glue and glitter. I don't remember it but they took a picture so I guess I'll always have that!

So can anyone tell me how I can get to the Mystery Shack? I'm thinking it's....to the west!

[Mabel Pines: master of introductions.]

[Action; Around Town]

[After using the phone Mabel decides that using the phone to get answers is stupid! This calls for action and some first hand investigation of where she is!

Of course after going around the town over and over again Mabel decides not that she's bothered by the town looping over and over again but rather intrigued and interested by it. In fact she's decided, here and now, that she is going to set a new record: the record for most times someone has consecutively run around over and over in the loop of the town. So as you're passing by you might see a girl running excitedly and shouting]

Seven!

[And then, if you're in the area again, you might see her still running and this time shouting]

Eight!

[Of course, she's so caught up in the new task she has set up for herself that she isn't paying attention to a goddamn thing in front of her. So it's quite possible she's going to manage to run into you as you're going about your business.

Sorry. Just the price to pay for glory.]

[1664 nelson street: 8:00 AM]

[It had happened in an instant. They were so close, they were going to defeat fate... and Keiichi, holding the torch high, had fallen. A single bullet had hit it's mark, and the cold brush of death had once again taken it's victim. A toss, a turn in the children's room of 1664 Nelson was met by Keiichi throwing his head up and arching his back.]

UWAAAAH!!!

[Had it all been... a dream? No... that was impossible. He could see it so clearly. Takano had clearly--]

Ah...

[The pain, it was still there. Keiichi's hand brushed along his chest and, once his shirt was risen, he found no wound. But he felt it. He knew for a fact it had happened. It was extremely vivid, far too realistic for a mere dream. But there was a problem... Once the shirt was lowered, Keiichi made a very shocking discovery.

This wasn't his room.

That wasn't his shirt.]

W... Where the hell am I?!

[Trying his best and I mean his absolute best not to panic, the boy jumped himself up out of bed. An entire hour was spent running around the house, trying to take in any familiar details. He couldn't see anything... but then caught his eyes on a photo. The photo pictured many strangers that he didn't recognize, which caused him to nearly break out in a cold sweat. Was this the afterlife?]

...Ouch!

[Nope, it wasn't. Evidenced by how the teen tried to pinch and tug on his cheek. He wasn't dead, he could still feel it. He wasn't dreaming because the pain was very real. So what the hell was going on here? All Keiichi could do was take the phone off the hook and reach it over to his ear... But who to call? Who to communicate with? Once he let out a harsh breath into the phone, he noticed that it had seemed to reflect across the home. Perhaps others would hear him too? The normally confident, explosive orange flame had a very large hint of worry in his tone as he spoke.]

[phone: 9:00 AM]

L-Look! Someone tell me where the hell I am! The last thing I remember is... [...] Ah! Rika, Satoko, Mion, Rena, Shion!! Can any of you hear me?! Are you guys alright? ....Did you make it out alive....

[The final question falls as his voice falls. He wasn't even sure if they were here, let alone if they'd ever hear his voice. What if they had perished? What if all of their efforts had been in vain, and they couldn't break away from fate's cruel grasp? A long bit of silence is heard over the phone, before Keiichi finally mutters.]

...If you guys are out there... please... answer me...

[Action - 1649 Albright]

[There's a package on the doorstep for Nyanpire, but it's several times larger than him. And heavy, very heavy. He's trying his best to shove it inside so he can open it, but there's no real progress being made. It's stuck against the bottom of the door frame.]

Help! I need help! Nyaaaaaaa!

[Action - Park]

[Mayfield was a pretty scary place. The phone had some people saying some pretty serious stuff. Something bad could happen to his friends and any moment, and he didn't want that! He'd have to protect them! And the only way to do that, tiny-tiny as he was, was to get stronger. Up until now, he hadn't been too sure how to go about this. But he had just gotten back the giant pile of fitness gear and health products that Masamunya had bought for him. So now he was gonna use them! And get strong! And protect everyone!

So there's a little kitty with little kitty-sized weights on his legs, and a sweatband on his head, and a wagon full of highly questionable vitamin supplements nearby. The kitty is working out quite hard, doing side lunges and squats and running around in circles... and occasionally just falling over and panting and looking quite exhausted.]

N... nyaa... it's hard to be strong...
