An Odd Little Town, Called Gravity Foals...

Ah summertime. A time for relaxation, fun, and games. Unless of course you're me.

A golf cart smashes through a sign that says Welcome to Gravity Foals, it drives through the woods, loud hoofsteps are heard behind it and a shadow looms over it. The shadow throws a tree at it, driving it is a lavender Alicorn mare with a purple mane baring a magenta streak down the middle, and the same pattern on her tail. Beside her sits a pink Earth Pony mare with a poofy mane colored a slightly darker shade of pink, and both of them are screaming like a three year old filly being read 'The Story of Slender-Mane'.

The one on the right is me, Twilight Sparkle. The one sitting next to me looking like she's about to puke is my sister, Pinkie Pie. I'm sure you're wondering what were doing in a golf cart fleeing from a creature of un-imaginable horror. Rest assured, there's a perfectly logical explanation..

It all started a few weeks after the whole 'human world' incident, when Trixie, Big Mac, and Flash Sentry got the idea to start a tourist trap. So they left and nobody saw them again. Now, let's fast forward about a month. I always knew I was a triplet. and that my sisters had been foalnapped at birth, but now I could actually do something about it. I decided to find my sisters by using an ancient spell called a 'blood summoning ritual' that summons anypony related by blood, of the casters choice, to their location. Anyway. Pinkie Pie and Trixie showed up, and Celestia freaked out and banished us to small town on the northwest edge of Equestria called Gravity Foals, turns out Trixie had opened up that tourist trap she wanted too. She had transformed an old house into a store called 'The Mystery Shack', the real mystery was why anypony came. We went to work there, and it looked like it was going to be the same boring cycle for the rest of our lives. Until one fateful day...

Inside The Mystery Shack, Pinkie Pie is staring at a brown unicorn colt with an orange mane from behind a desk with a linge of Trixie bobbleheads on it, the colt is levitating a small piece of paper in a red aura. "He's looking at it! He's looking at it!"

The colt unfolds the piece of paper and reads "Would you like to go out with me, yes, certainly, absolutely?"

Pinkie Pie giggles as she whispers "I rigged it!"

Behind her Twilight was cleaning a jar of fake eyeballs (although the customers didn't know they were fake) with hare magic, she rolled her eyes, having gotten used to Pinkie's new-found obsession with colts that she'd formed over the few weeks they'd been away from Ponyville "Pinkie, I know your going through a whole 'Colt Crazy' phase now, but I think your overdoing it a little on the crazy part."

"Oh come on Twilight! Were not in Ponyville anymore, I have a whole new town to make friends with! So why not make my first new friend a REALLY SPECIAL friend!"

Twilight felt like face-hoofing "But do you HAVE to flirt with every colt we meet?"

"I do not!"

FLASHBACK

Pinkie Pie jumped out behind a bench where a green pegasus colt with a black mane was trying to eat a cupcake. "You like cupcakes!? I like cupcakes!? What is happening here!?"

ANOTHER FLASHBACK

A dark purple unicorn colt with a yellow mane stood in front of a mattress store yelling "COME ONE! COME ALL! TO THE MATTRESS PRINCE'S KINGDOM OF SAVINGS!" Pinkie Pie popped out behind him whispering "Take me with you!!"

FLASHBACK END

"Mock all you want sister, but I've got a good feeling about this summer! I wouldn't be surprised is the pony of my dreams walked though that door right now!"

At that moment Trixie walked through the door, in all her light blue glory  Pinkie Pie face-hoofed "Oh why?..." Twilight couldn't help but chuckle a bit.

"Alright everypony, Trixie needs somepony to go hammer up these signs in the spooky part of the forest." Trixie levitated some signs that had been next to door into the air. A chorus of 'not me' erupted around the room.

Trixie sighed "Nobody asked you Big Mac"

"Eeyup, and Ah'm comfortable with that" Big Mac said smiling and eating a chocolate covered apple

Trixie rolled her eyes "Flash, Trixie needs you to hang up these signs"

Flash moaned fakely reaching for the sign while focused on his book "I.. Would... Can't reach..." If you looked closely you'd see a smirk cross his face.

Trixie scowled "Trixie would fire both of you if she could. Ok.." she lifted her hoof into the air and began randomly pointing "eenie meanie miney... Twilight, go do it!" she tossed the signs between Twilights wings.

Twilight groaned and turned torwards her sister "Trixie, whenever I'm in those woods I feel like i'm being watched, it's like the Everfree only... So mus]ch worse..."

"Ugh, this again."

"I'm telling you, something's off in this town, just today, the dew on the window spell out 'beware'." Twilight protested.

Trixie face-hoofed, then pointed at the window above the counter "First off, that saws BEWARB, second... Look sis, the whole monsters in the forest thing is local legend made up by ponies like Trixie, to sell stuff to ponies like that." She pointed across the room where a changeling drone was laughing hysterically at a Trixie bobblehead "So stop being so paranoid!"

Twilight sighed in defeat, taking the signs and leaving.

                                                  - Hello, I'm a line break. -

Twilight sighed as she put up a sign on a tree using her magic, the sign read in big blue letters 'TO MYSTERY SHACK'. As she went to put up the next one, the nail hit the tree with a loud metallic thump! She tapped the nail on the tree three more times, each gaining the same result. Wiping away the dust with her hoof, she felt a small opening in the side of the tree, upon opening it she found a box with a small dark glass screen on the side, and several switches and levers, she began randomly flipping switches, waiting for something to happen.

A low groan sounded behind her, as she turned around she noticed part of the ground had opened up, she ran over to it, looking in she found an old book "What the?"

She quickly levitated the book out with her magic, and flipped it opened to the first page "It's hard to believe it's been six years since I started studying the strange and wondrous secrets of Gravity Foals, Equestria... What is this?" One of the pages she noticed more had said 'TRUST NOPONY!!!' She continued reading "Unfortunately, my suspicions have been confirmed, I'm being watched, I have to hide this before SHE finds it. Remember, in Gravity Foals there is nopony you can trust..."

"Nopony you can trust..."

"HELLO!" Pinkie Pie said, popping out from the log and successfully making Twilight scream "Watchya readin? Some egghead thing?

Twilight hid the book under her wings an quickly stuttered "Uh... Uh... It's nothing!"

Pinkie began giggling "'Uh... Uh... It's nothing!'" She said mocking her sister "Come on, are you actually not gonna show me!"

Twilight looked down and said "Lets go somewhere private..."

                                      - My name is also Line Break, would you like some coffee? -

"So, Trixe said I was just being paranoid, but according to the book Gravity Foals has this secret dark side!" Twilight was currently telling Pinkie Pie. She levitated it up to her sisters face so she could see better.

Pinkie grinned widely "Whoa! Shut up!"

Twilight grinned pulling the book back "And get this, after a certain point the pages just stop, like the pony writing it just mysteriously disappeared!" And thats when the doorbell rang "Who's that?"

"Well, time to spill the beans!" Pinkie tipped over an empty can of beans that had appeared seemingly from nowhere on the stand next to her "Whoop! Beans. This silly filly's got a date! WOOP WOOP!"

Twilight actually had to levitate her mouth closed "Wait a minute, in the half hour I was gone you ACTUALLY managed to get a coltfriend!?"

Pinkie smiled and shurgged "What can I say? I guess I'm just irresistible!" The doorbell rang two more times and Pinkie ran out of the room to answer it saying "Oh, coming!"

Trixie walked in and addressed Twilight "What you reading princess purple?" Twilight quickly hid the book behind her wing and levitated a magazine on the floor to her face.

"Oh um... Just catching up on..." She closed the magazine to see the cover "Get Rich Quick Schemes For Teenage Mares Magazine?"

Trixie grinned "That's a good issue." Twilight kept on pretending to read the magazine.

Pinkie Pie came hopping in and yelled "Heeey family!" her two sisters turned their attention to the door "May I introduce my new coltrfriend!"

A tan unicorn colt with a brown mane wearing a black jumpsuit entered the room "I'm...Normal..."

Pinkie giggled "He means Norman"

Twilight raised her eyebrow noticing a speck of red on Normans cheek "Are you... Bleeding Norman?"

Norman looked around nervously and replied "It's... Jam..."

Pinkie gasped as she seemingly hovered into the air "I love jam!" She nudges Normans hoof a bit.

Norman quickly looked around and said "So.. Wanna go hold hooves or... Whatever..."

Pinkie's grin only grew and her tail began spinning like a helicopters blade "Yes! Yes! Don't wait up girls!" She literally flew out of the room like a torpedo.

Norman turned around and smacked into a wall before following Pinkie out of the room, although five seconds later the sound of glass shattering was heard.

There was something about Norman that wasn't right, I decided to consult the journal.

Twilight sat in an empty room of the shacks attic, she was reading the book, looking for clues on what - or who - Norman could be. Finally, she landed on a page that was a near dead match "Aha! Known for their pale hair and bad attitudes, these creatures are often mistaken for... Teenagers! Beware of Gravity Foals nefarious..."

The book feel to the floor, and a cry of "ZOMBIE!!!!" could be heard throughout the shack, somewhere in the house, Trixie mistook the word for 'Crombie' and commented that she was losing her mind because the word didn't exist.

Back in the attic, Twilight was looking out the window in fear at Norman who was inching torward Pinkie "Oh no! Pinkie!!! No! No! Pinkie ,watch out!"

Norman lifted presented Pinkie with a daisy necklace and she responded by giggling.

Twilight turned around and sighed "Is my sister really dating a Zombie, or am I just going nuts!?"

A voice with a distinct southern drawl answered from above "It's a dilemma to be sure."

Twilight looked up to see Big Mac on a ladder replacing a light bulb, he looked down at her and said "Ah couldn't help but hear yah talkin' to yerself in this empty room."

Twilight sighed "Big Mac, You've seen Pinkie's coltfriend, he's got to be a Zombie right!?"

Big Mac smiled "Look Twi, Ah believe ya, Ah'm always noticin' strange things in this town. Like the mailmare, I'm pretty sure she's a changeling"

FLASHBACK

An all black green eyed pegasus mare with blue saddlebags passes by Big Mac who is eating an apple on a nearby bench. He scoots over to the other end of the bench.

END FLASHBACK

"But yah gotta have evidence. Otherwise ponies are gonna think yer a major league cuckoo clock."

Twilight smiled "You're right, thanks Big Mac."

Big Mac got down from the ladder and said "Mah wisdom is both a blessin' and a curse."

At that moment, Trixie's voice sounded from the hall "MAC! THE PORTABLE TOILETS ARE CLOGGED AGAIN!"

"Ah'm needed elsewhere." And with that, Big Mac left the room.

My sister could be in trouble, it was time to get some evidence.

One montage of spying on Pinkie and Norman later, the lavender alicorn seemingly had nothing but a video camera with full memory

I'd seen enough.

Twilight ran into hers and Pinkies room in the attic and yelled "Pinkie! We've got to talk about Norman, he's not what he seems!"

Pinkie Pie gasped excitedly "You mean he's like some kind of Vampony? That would be so cool!"

Twilight shook her head "Guess again sister! Sha-bam!" Aaand she had flipped opened the Gnome page "Oh, sorry. Sha-bam!" She opened the Zombie page.

Pinkie frowned "A Zombie? That's not funny you silly filly!"

Twilight quickly started rambling "I'm not kidding Pinkie, it all adds up! The bleeding, the limp, he never blinks! Have you NOTICED that, not blinking at all isn't scientifically possible, HE is not scientifically possible!"

Pinkie sighed "Maybe he's blinking when your blinking! That'd make sense!"

Twilight grabbed Pinkie with her magic and said "Remember what the book said, TRUST. NOPONY!"

Pinkie broke out of the magical aura by twirling her tail around violently for a few seconds "What about me Twilight? Why can't you trust me?" Her mane flattened a little, but quickly poofed back up as she put on a star shaped necklace "Beep! Bop!"

Twilight was beginning to panic "Pinkie! Please just listen!"

Pinkie Pie's coat visibly grayed and her mane flattened "Look Twilight! Me and Norman are going on a date at five o clock, and I'm NOT going to let you ruin it with one of you're STUPID CONSPIRACIES!" And with a small poofing noise she was back to her same old cheery self, hopping out the room and closing the door behind her.

Twilight sighed, turning to the video camera where the footage was replaying on a small screen.

Meanwhile, Pinkie was meeting Norman on the edge of the forest "Hey Norman, how do I look?"

Norman spotted the necklace "Shiny..."

They went deeper into the forest until they found a clearing, Pinkie grinned "Finally, were alone..."

Norman looked down "Yes... alone."

Back at the Mystery Shack, Twilight was re-watching the video footage "Big Mac is right, I don't have any REAL evidence. I guess I can freak out sometimes and -Wait WHAT!!"

On the video, she had just seen Normans hoof fall off and get levitated back to his jumpsuit sleeve, this time staying on. She. Was. Freaking. OUT!

"TRIXIE!!! TRIXIE!!!" She yelled running outside only to see her second sister introducing some tourists

"And here, we have 'Rock That Looks Like A Face Rock' is it a rock? Or is it a face?" Trixie was saying to the tourists. Several hooves went up and she pointed to one "Yes?"

"Does it look like a rock?"

"No it looks like a face!"

"Is it a face?"

Trixie face-hoofed and groaned "No, it's a rock!" Twilight then ran, leaving Trixe to be bombarded by the insane crowds questions. She ran into Flash who was getting out of the golf cart "Flash, Flash, I need to borrow the golf cart!"

Flash shrugged and got out, leaving the keys in the ignition. Twilight got in and started driving away when Big Mac stopped her "This is for the Zombies." He handed her a shovel "And this is incase you see a pinata." He handed her a wooden bat.

"Thank's Big Mac" Twilight yelled as she drove away.

Back in the woods, Norman was now standing on his hind legs "Pinkie, I've... Got something to show you, now just keep an open mind ok."

Pinkie was smiling "Anything for you Norman..."

Norman unzipped his jumpsuit and let it fall back to reveal... Gnomes. A bunch of mini unicorn colts in gnome outfits with beards "Is this too weird? Is it? Too much weirdness?... Anyway... Were gnomes! I'm jeff, this guy here is Jason, theres Carl, Steve, Derek, Rogers, and... Sorry, I ALWAYS forget your name."

"Severlock"

Jeff smiled "Yes, Severlock. Anywya, us Gnomes need a new queen! So, what do you say, will you join us in holy matri-gnomey, sorry matrimony, bleh, I can't talk today! "

Pinkie shuffled awkardly "Look guys, I'm sorry but... I'm a mare and your... Gnomes... And it's like, Whaat? You get it right?"

Jeff closed his eyes "We understand. We'll never forget you Pinkie Pie... Because were gonna foalnap you."

Pinkie's eyes widened "Wait, WHAT!?"

The gnomes lunged at her.

                                      - I'm the Line Break, I'm back from lunch. -

Twilight drove the cart through the woods recklessly "Don't worry Pinkie! I'll save you from that Zombie! Also I should have learned how to drive!"

In the distance Pinkie screamed "HELP!"

"Hold on!"

Twilight pulled up to see the Gnome known as Steve help to restrain Pinkie's front left hoof "What the hay is going on here!?"

Pinkie yelled "Twilight! Norman turned into a bunch of Gnomes and now their trying to marry me!"

Jeff chuckled and tried to explain "You see you're sisters not in any trouble, she's just marrying all one thousand of us and become our gnome queen for all eternity."

"YOU COLTS ARE FLANK FACES!" A gnome put a cork in Pinkie's mouth, if you looked closely you would have noticed her coat starting to gray.

Twilight levitated the shovel she brought and began trying - and to some extant succeeding - to threaten the gnomes "Give her back right now! I already lost her once, I'm not losing her again!"

Jeff scowled "You think you can stop us filly? The Gnomes are a powerful race! All hail the gn-" Jeff got hit in the head with the shovel, that proceeded to cut Pinkie free of the ropes holding her down, he managed to get to his feet in time to see Twilight and Pinkie drive away in the golf cart "Their getting away, Gnomes of the forest, ASSEMBLE!"

Pinkie was frantic "Hurry, before they come after us!"

Twilight grinned "I wouldn't worry about them, their so small they couldn-" she was cut off be massive hoofsteps chasing them.

Jeff, on top of a massive pony shape pile of gnomes was saying "Alright gnomes, team work just like we practiced!"

Pinkie screamed "MOVE! MOVE!"

They quickly took off, but Severlock jumped on Twilights face "AAHHH"

"I'll save you Twilight!" she kept hitting the Gnome until it was thrown off Twilight and out of the cart. They were chased back to The Mystery Shack where the cart crashed. they backed up against the wall pointing the shovel at the knomes "Where's Trixie!?"

Inside the shack Trixie was finished the tour with the worst thing possible "Behold! The worlds most distracting object!" She turned it on, catching the full attention of everypony in the room... Including her.

Back outside, Pinkie stood up "I gotta do it."

Twilight gasped and protested "Pinkie! No!"

Pinkie ignored her looked up to the gnomes "Alright Jeff, I'll marry you."

Jeff was so excited he hopped down the giant gnome-pony "Alright, let's get you back to the forest and-"

"You may kiss the bride!"

Jeff smirked "Don't mind if I do!" He turned around... And got sucked into the leaf blower.

Pinkie proceeded to set the leaf blower in reverse and shoot the gnome-pony, scattering the gnomes that made it up around the yard, the gnomes proceeded to panic and run away "Um.. Hey Twilight, I'm sorry for ignoring you're advice..."

Twilight smiled and replied "That's okay... Look on the bright side, next time it might be a vampony!"

Pinkie grinned at this remark "Awkard sibling hug?

"...Awkard sibling hug."

They hugged patting eachothers back and saying 'pat pat'

Later in the store, they were about to go upstairs when Trixie stopped them "Hey, uh... Why don't you each take something from the shop, it's free!"

Twilight raised her eyebrow "The catch?"

"The catch is do something before Trixie changes her mind, now go!"

Twilight picked out a blue and white hat with a pine tree on it, and Pinkie Pie picked out a grappling hook, despite her two sisters attempting to change her mind.

That night, Twilight and Pinkie sat across from eachother in their seperate beds, Twilight was writing in her journal.

This journal said there was nopony in Gravity Foals I could trust. But when you know someone long enough, and battle enough deranged villains side-by-side with them, I think it's safe to say they've pretty much always got you're back.

"Hey could you get that light?"

Pinkie grins "I'm on it!" Pinkie fires her grappling hook, effectively destroying the lamp. "It works! Haha, grappling hook."

Trixie told us there would be nothing strange about this town, but who know what other secrets are just waiting to be unlocked.

• Twilight Sparkle.

Meanwhile, Trixie walks into the mystery shack with her horn lit up, she closes the door behind her, going into the main store, she types a random code into the vending machine, which proceeds to move to the side revealing a secret staircase, she goes behind it, pulling it closed with her magic as she walks into the newly revealed room...
