Summer Break

Summer Break -

'Dipper Pines here on the first day of summer. Me and my sister Mabel have been sent to stay with our great uncle who lives way north in formerly Gravity Falls, Oregon. The town was fused with another town of Brighton and it was decided to renamed the town to Gravity Falls Brighton. Our parents thought it be a good idea to send us out of Piedmont, California which thanks to what people have called the Merge is also part of Republic City. Home to millions from the 4 nations who each can bend one of the four elements with only Korra the avatar being able to use all four at once, along with spirit energy. They're also some of the few people from a magical like world who can still use their powers. But it's not actual magic but spiritual energy, like how some people from worlds where fighters can throw energy attacks by using their ki or chi.'

'Our world has really changed since the Merge, with many worlds being fused together or bits and pieces of others. There are many worlds where magic use to be real, but in this new world there isn't any magic left. According to Star Butterfly of Echo Creek, she had destroyed the magic that allowed magic to exist in her dimension that also linked to other dimensions. Which the best guess is that when the merge happen it also got rid of the other magics of the other worlds also pulled together. The kind that is used to cast spells with, seeing how there are two kinds of magic. Spell magic which was destroyed and passive magic that is just there. Like how the ponyheads can be how they are and live on magic clouds with all the buildings and things that don't just fall through like with normal clouds.'

'It changed things for all the magic users who found themselves in this world. Like in Japan there are some magical girls who now without magic have become idols there. Sailormoon and other magical girls from the anime and mangas are based on the real life ones. Some of them miss their magic, which without magic have fallen on hard times as they depend on magic so much and were so isolated, they had no idea how to live without magic. While others who had magical curses on them are now free of them, no magic means no magical curse.'

'There are expectations like the witches from the Demon Realm, which turns out, Edalyn "Eda" Clawthorne, the Owl Lady, the most powerful witch of the Boiling Isles, is the ex-wife of uncle Stan. They married in Las Vegas and she took off in his car and his winnings. She and the other Witches are able to use magic thanks to their magic being different. Like the three girls in LA where they used power gems to defeat the big bad behind the frog invasion. Magic that has one source of magic like the magic realm that Star destroyed, are gone while other sources of magic are still around. Which the magic users who lost their magic have found to be like putting diesel into a car that isn't made to handle it. They can use different sources but it damages their bodies when they used it, power at a price short of thing. Some magic users just drop dead from the strain using magic puts their bodies through. On the most part, easy to use magic but a few exceptions is gone.' (1)

'The merge also revealed aliens who have been living on some of the other Earths. Like that Zim guy a little green alien who just wore a wig, contacts, which no one on his world could see through, even with him having no nose. The only person who saw through it was my online friend Dib, which no matter what happen like the time a big alien went and crash into his classroom in front of everyone. That no one cared about and quickly forgot about that and just laugh at Dib when a bird poop on his shoulder.'

'Now with magical creatures and other non-humans walking around, Dib is no longer seen as crazy. He even made friends with a boy name Lincoln and another 2 kids Clyde and Ronnie. They made a web series of them going around and learning about the new creatures and non-humans. Which is a big hit and how I became friends with them, as they share my love for the supernatural. Even if there isn't any magic anymore.'

'People just got use to all the non-humans and creatures instead of the whole we go to war and all that which was the main reason why in some worlds they hide with magic. And having been proven so wrong in their views on normal humans, many of the younger generation who had wanted to reveal themselves but were stop by those above them, who refused to even think that they might be wrong. The younger generation have broken away from their old culture and stop listening to their elders. Like the American dragon of New York, who can still change from human to dragon. He has been very publicly denouncing the old ways of hiding from humans and that because of the elders of the magical world having the mindset that humans will always seek to kill them because they're different, and that there is no way the younger generation would think differently. Having been proven so wrong has help with Star Butterfly and a Juniper Lee in helping people to adjust to their new world. They started clubs where kids of both human and non-humans can meet up and become friends, as we're the ones who will change things and not the older generation.'

'I did some research on Gravity Falls and it was just a small sleepy town in the middle of the forest. Our uncle Stan turns his home into a tourist trap the Mystery Shack which played on all the many supernatural occurrences there. Of course, now that the merge happens, our uncle still runs the trap but mostly with all the weird things that still found there. Like the Maw a huge ship resort that appeared that was an actual a prison for children who are fed to the guests who come to the ship to feast. It was cleaned up and now is serving as a home for many non-humans and humans who moved in.'

'The town of Brighton which has merged with Gravity Falls, has a portal to a ghost world with the current leader of the ghost world Scratch living with a human family. The ghosts appear in the town and hang out, getting tourists to come to the town. It's still strange how a midwestern town ended up In Oregon of all places. But that's not the only out of place town that appeared near Gravity Falls Brighton.'

'There is also Equestia county home to both talking ponies and colorful humans like the old Doug cartoon. The ponies come in 3 types normal or Earth, pegasus and unicorns, with 3 royal ponies who are all 3. They used to be able to use magic, that allowed them to do many things but without it they have become limited in being able to do what they use to do. There are also other races that came with them and have spread out since the merge. They're still ruled by their princesses but the news of the white one abandoning her daughter has caused her to step down from her throne and now her sister and niece are ruling the ponies. As for the daughter, Sun something she's helping her aunt and cousin in modernizing everything. She turned the entire county into a resort and is now a big tourist hot spot, which uncle Stan is also making money from.'

'There is also a town of Peach Creek between Gravity Falls Brighton and Equestia County. There's also Canterlot City that sits on the land above the valley. And a few miles away is Big Apple City, which the people there are really into baking and other food stuffs, and is home to a version of Strawberry Shortcake and her friends. There is also Rainbowland home to Rainbow Brite and the color kids, they also still have their powers thanks to them being more like superpowers than magic. And yeah, that's it for the big locations that have appeared thanks to the merge around Gravity Falls Brighton.'

'There is a summer camp that appeared in Gravity Falls Brighton next to the lake near a lighthouse which also appeared. Camp Lake Bottom which is run by a sasquatch, a zombie and a normal human woman when it appeared. It's now a camp for both human and non-human kids to spend summer together and learn to become friends. Both Dib and his gang are going to the summer camp along with a whole other bunch of kids across the country. I'll finally be able to meet in person my online friends during the summer.'

Dipper put down his journal he has started writing ever since the merged. He's been writing his thoughts and writing down what he sees so that all the new and strange things he encounters would be recorded. He looks to his sister Mabel who is busy looking up things with her phone, which is just cat videos. A flash of memory of an older Mabel in a rundown apartment... Why does he keep having these strange flashes?

"Ready to go?" Ronnie asks as she got out of her brother's car to join the others at the bus station. They would take a bus for about 2 days before making it to their camp.

"I'm ready," Clyde said. His dads were busy making sure all the things he needs would be in his bags, which turns out that won't all be able to fit in the bus. So they're rearranging and taking out things from the bags with the bus driver having told them there is too many bags.

"I can finally be alone and away from my family," Lincoln said who came with Dib so that he wouldn't have to spend any more time then needed with his family.

Ever since the merge the relationship with Lincoln and his family has changed. News came out about how his family had kick him out of the house because of them thinking he's bad luck. The only reason why the Loud family wasn't broken up with the parents in jail and the kids sent to foster homes, is because of all the confusion that happen because of the merge. With so many worlds all pulled together, and no one knew what laws were still in effect and who was allowed to serve it, the police had their hands full in dealing with all the chaos and looting. Seeing how the city that became fused with Royal Woods had some very... strange laws to say the least.

But with that said the Loud family became a broken one once news came out of them kicking out Lincoln. The parents lost their jobs and their old friends stop being their friends, with them having to get new jobs in the city that... was just a dump compared to Royal Woods. The people from the Royal have been constantly befuddled by the sheer insane amounts of apathy and stupidly shown by just about everyone in the city. To the point where they name their city, The City, even their schools are spelled Skool to show how dumb most of the people are. Needless to say the people of Royal Woods avoided going over to the City side of their new city, which is half The City and half Royal Woods, the new city is now called Royalwoods City. With how different and insane most people are in the City part few Royalwoods venture into that crapsack part of the city. Which both parents now had to work in to put money on the table, it's also the main reason why they weren't put into jail thanks to their home falling into the City side, which has their own laws from the Royalwoods side.

The girls of the Loud house also suffered as they became outcasts in their schools once it became known what they did to their brother. The girls tried to make things right, but Lincoln gave up on them ever treating him as they would if he was born as a girl. He's expected to be the good brother while all of them get to do what they want while expecting him to drop whatever he was doing to help them. The only one Lincoln still sees as a sister is Lily, who is now walking and talking. Now he spends most of his time away from his family besides Lily and hang out with his friends, especially Dib who shares his love in the supernatural.

Lori lost all of her friends and Bobby broke up with her. The same with Leni in losing all of her friends with both older sisters losing their jobs and having to find work in the City. Luna got kick out of her band and no one would hire her, forcing her to look in the City which was just bad. Luan also lost all of her customers and the only ones who would hire her is in the City which, usually has her being pelted with waste if she's lucky and heckled. Lynn became blacklisted from sports because of how bad of a sore loser she is with no team wanting her, even being the last being pick for PE. And no one paid or listen to anything she says pretending she wasn't even there. Lucy likewise was kick out of her circle of friends, along with everyone learning she likes reading the cute pony comic. As were the twins Lana and Lola, with the latter being blacklisted in beauty pageants. Lisa has to face being mocked by her peers for believing in something like someone is bad luck and being seen and treated as the small child that she is. In all the entire family is seen and treated as if they came from the City, who are avoided and not talk to at all. (2)

"Tell me about it," Dib said.

Dib love how the merge brought people who weren't at all like the people around him. He quickly transferred out of his old Skool and went to the school that Lincoln goes to for a better education. Which also meant Gaz got in as well, seeing how both of them were the only students who tried and actually could understand what the better school taught. And where Dib being into the supernatural and aliens was seen as cool. Especially after he, Lincoln, Ronnie, and Clyde exposed Zim as an alien, to people who weren't from the City. Then there's their website and blog where the share what happens to them and what supernatural things and beings they discover. Their online videos are mostly about how to interact with all the new nonhumans and for said non humans learn how to not treat humans. Both sides having different customs and cultures needing to learn how to work together, with them mostly focusing on the kids around their age then adults.

"I'm surprise your sister isn't coming," Ronnie said to Dib.

"Please ever since she learned about online gaming, she's been posting and streaming herself playing games, which makes her money so she can buy more games and make more money. She's even entering game tournaments and winning quite a few of them. And Dad is too busy as all he cares about is all the new technology for him to study. But he and Gaz are doing better after the merge happen. Dad no longer having to be the only smart guy that keeps everything running and Gaz no longer has to deal with being surrounded by idiots all the time, is much more relax and calm. She has been nicer for her, anyways and dad has more time to spend time with both of us," Dib said.

"What about the clone of your dad, Clembrane?" Lincoln asked.

"Oh, he's still taking care of the house and helping dad now and then," Dib said. "He's been learning how to cook different kinds of pudding."

Clembrane is a failed clone of Professor Membrane created by Zim in the past as part of an aborted plan to swap him out with the real Membrane and have him ground Dib forever. Zim gave up on him, not because the clone obviously looks, sounds and acts absolutely nothing like the real Professor Membrane, but because the clone couldn't make pudding just the way Dib likes... even though Dib doesn't even like pudding. He's has gotten use to the new world they're all in, better than others for, their world.

The City part of Royalwoods City only lasted about a month before it all fell apart. In fact, all the people from Dib's world had the rude awakening of where their stupidity isn't rewarded or ignored, they actually have to deal with the consequences of their actions. Most people quickly found themselves kick out of their old jobs seeing how people from other worlds weren't dumb and just let someone who is completely incompetent for the job to keep it. Many children found themselves in foster care which caused its own problems. Which is why both Dib and Lincoln avoided going into the foster care system seeing how overwhelm the workers were and how bad things were. The city part of Royalwoods is only running because of people from the Royalwoods side now in charge of things once the government of the city was disbanded. But people only worked there because of the pay or like the Loud parents because no one else would hire them. The City part is the bad side of the tracks and the people over there are morons, with only a few of them being competent enough to do low skill jobs.

"It's still strange in how busy he is that the only time he can spend time with you and your sister is once a year in your old world," Clyde said.

"I gotten used to it and now he has more free time," Dib said.

"So, what's so special about Gravity Falls Brighton? You 3 been going on about it since we signed up for the camp," Ronnie ask.

"From what we been hearing unlike everywhere else in the world. Gravity Falls Brighton is a weak point between worlds and magical items appear now and then. It's like how in the Demon Realm human stuff ended up washing ashore on the Boiling Isles, something happens in the valley and the surrounding area. And normal people like us can use magic from there," Lincoln said.

"Actually the magic there are ritual magic, completely different from the wand and chanting types. More powerful but you do have to setup everything just right or it won't work," Clyde said.

"Oh like dancing under the light of a full moon while waving a dead chicken or being hit in the face with a tuna a hundred times?" Ronnie asked.

"Yup," Dib said.

"Tuna?" Clyde asks.

"Cartoon, Mr Pickles about an evil dog. The ritual is for switching bodies, hitting with a fish, eating out of a sloth's butt of mice butts, bats tied to eyelids, a boar licking beetle spit from a bellybutton, lizards pooping in the ears while saying name backwards, and eating a brussel sprout," Ronnie explains.

"Eewww," Lincoln and Clyde said.

"Yeah that sounds like something you would have to do for a ritual. All the easy to use magic have been destroyed, well for the ones that people can learn to do anyways," Dib said.

"Wait a boar and a sloth? But those animals live on different landmasses separated by the sea. How would you be able to do that ritual before people even made it across the sea?" Lincoln asked.

"Not to mention brussel sprouts wouldn't be even around as we know them back in the old times," Clyde adds.

"It's a cartoon, don't have to make sense," Ronnie said Causing the two boys to shrug it off.

"Also while there, i can try recharging some magical items I gotten. The magic that powered them is gone but maybe if I'm in a place where there is magic long enough it be like recharging a solar battery," Dib said.

"Well don't expect to use any of those old magical girl transformation crap. There is no way I'm dressing up like them. Running around in those mini-skirts showing off their underwear for the world to see," Ronnie said.

"Would never dream of it," Lincoln said, which cause Ronnie glared at him before punching one of his shoulders.

"That's wonderful, glad to see how well the Sparrow Scouts are doing in making friends with non-humans," Juniper Lee said as she chats with a young green haired girl name Hilda.

"Yes, the Frea brothers and sisters are helping in keeping the wild new creatures away from the town and farms. Me and the rest of the kids think it is neat having some friendly trolls around. The adults are still uneasy with them. They're also talking with the trolls of my world and are trying to figure out a safe way to move the mother troll underneath Trollsberg without destroying the city," Hilda said.

"By the way how's Thor doing?" Juniper asks.

"He's still touring around and showing off in those shows. I never imagine a god be like... well him," Hilda said.

"Tell me about it. I'm surprise that he still has some of his old powers. Is he still acting like Marvel comics Thor?" Juniper asks. Thinking how Thor while losing the lion share of his powers, still has super strength, lightning powers and being immortal. With his hammer still being magical, with his metal gloves that lets him handle the hammer and the magical belt that makes him even stronger.

"Oh yes he's all dress like him and even trim his beard to be like what Thor has in End Game. And helping the police whenever he can," Hilda said.

"Nice to see someone like him doing my old job," Juniper said.

"So how are things now that you no longer have to protect the magical world?" Hilda asks.

"Great, I can finally have a normal life, I can leave the city as the barrier is gone. My human friends and non-human friends get along and got to show everything that I have wanted to tell and do. Sure, we had problems at first and with the whole merge thing but we quickly bounce back, with us kids leading the way," Juniper said.

"You did had super powers," Hilda said.

"Well thanks to the merge I no longer have magic and no longer trap in the barrier, since it's gone for good. Seems the magic my world used is like the magic source of Star's world and was destroyed. So all the magic of my world but for a few exceptions like Thor is gone," Juniper said. "I can't believe all of this time of hiding because of the magical elders feared that humans couldn't be trusted not to go to war was all for nothing."

"Same here with those wizards who now without magic are just muggles now. The magic that magic users of my world requires intensive study, even if the actual incantation is only a simple phrase. However, once the requisite spell and gestures are memorized you're usually good to go unless you need ingredients. And you have to make sure the runes are right if you want them to work. Not to mention be able to calculate in your head to be able to use magic, which is why my friend Frida is able to learn to use magic, she's good at math. There is no skipping on the advanced math and physical labor involved in creating potions and powders that forms the backbone of sustainable magic. Lots of magic users who lost their magic came here to learn and flunk out as they're use to just being able to use magic or are poor in math. Well, there is those Spell Drives but those are expensive. It's too bad with all the separated worlds because of how things were in the past. There was so much we could had done," Hilda said.

"Grandma took it bad when she realized that if she started when she was younger, like I'm doing with the younger kids to learn to be friends with monsters that she wasted her life in keeping a broken system going," Juniper said sadly as her grandma has been depress once she realized that fact.

"I never understood that. Even before the merge happen in my world we always knew about the magical world and just learned to live with it. And now school has some non-humans attending. In my class we have the goblin twins Gine and Gina, Max a small breed of arachne, Jak a cyclope, Sally a mermaid who uses a wheelchair on land, and Anne a dragon like Jake," Hilda explains.

"Same here and even with non-humans in the classroom. School is still school," Juniper said. (3)

Jake stood in front of the dragon council with his grandfather being a member. Much has changed since the merge and the magical world couldn't hide anymore. With all the things happening with figuring out who is running the government and all the other stuff. Jake help at first but once things settle down, he just stop being the American dragon and just let the police handle things, seeing how they also been hiring non humans to serve as law enforcement too. He and his friends started a club where kids could make friends with non-humans. Seeing how everything the council did to hide because they genuinely believe that muggles will never be ready for them, only was true because no one ever tried to change things. Which he told them in their faces before abandoning being the American dragon.

Jake and his friends got the young of both groups together, to ignore what the older generation thought was right and make friends with each other. Using the civil rights moment where it was the younger generation who just didn't care about the old ways and their parents who stubbornly held that the color of someone skins is all that matters, to become friends with kids their own ages, no matter if they're human or non-human. And it spread quickly across the world as the young were the ones who did the most to adapt to the new world, they're in while many of the adults held onto their ways till it was either change or be shoved out of the way. (4)

"Yeah, so what do you want?" Jake asks showing no respect towards any of the elders. He like many of the younger generation of the magical world look down at the elders who kept the worlds separated, which they been proven so wrong.

"Jake, we call you here for an important mission," Luong Lao Shi said to his grandson.

"Why not have Haley do it. She's still wants to be the American dragon. I made it clear I don't want to ever see any of you again or work for you. Not after what you all tried to do," Jake said. The dragon council had joined with other magical councils to try to restore the veil that hides the magical world from humans and erase everyone's memory of what happen. It works for only a couple of hours before the magic just faded like every other magic spell that was cast in the early days. As some magic sources lingered like pools of water before drying up. Once it was discovered what happen it cause many to distrust the different magic councils.

"Now kid, I know you don't want anything to do with your gramps and the others. But this is a big deal," Fu Dog said who had led Jake into the chamber.

"Well, what is it?" Jake asks.

"There might be a way to restore magic," Fu Dog said.

"As if I didn't hear that before," Jake growls out. "Let me guess it's something like those wizards tried in a ritual that has them offering the blood of thousands of babies to regain their lost magic."

"Don't remind me," Fu Dog said remembering the massive backlash to hit the magic users after that. Seeing how the babies weren't all human but other races, the wizards also gathered those who still could use magic in the hopes that it would restore theirs. In the end the magic world of witches and wizards of England was destroyed. All the wizards and witches of from that world they came from, were hunted down and killed. And the ritual didn't even work, making what they did all for nothing, not that there was any left from that world.

"No. Nothing like that. There is a place called Gravity Falls Brighton a weak point in the dimensional barriers. Magical items keep on appearing there. We need to find the source where the items are coming from and maybe it will lead to a new source of magic," Lao Shi said.

"In other words a source of easy to use magic, which you can use without it ending up killing you. Like what happen to the ones who casted the spell to recreate the veil and erase the memories of the magic world," Jake said causing the elders to look uncomfortable, some of their members had tried to recast the spell that failed using other magic but ended up killing them horribly. "Of course seeing how you are the only members left who aren't in jail but are still under house arrest, none of you can go out and find out yourselves."

After the failed second spell, many members of the magical councils were arrested and put into jail to make sure they can't try it again. Only a few members who weren't on the second attempt didn't ended up being arrested. But they're all being closely watched and under house arrest.

"Many magical beings are at a lost without being able to use magic kid. And they are paying for everything," Fu Dog said.

"So why me?" Jake asks.

"We don't want to make a big scene and seeing how there is a summer camp for humans and non-humans...," Fu Dog began.

"And you want me to go and check things out, seeing," Jake said.

"Not just you. We're sending Trixie, Spud, and Rose to maintain cover of kids going to the summer camp. With the kingdom of Equestia being around Gravity Falls Brighton, the council doesn't want...," Lao Shi was interrupted by Jake.

"Don't want people to flock to get their hands on the source before you," Jake said. Without their magic and the lost of faith from the younger generation, the council lost much of its power. The elders like his grandfather are also under house arrest with ankle bracelets and be thrown into jail for real if they tried to do anything without informing the people monitoring them.

"We do need something before things turn ugly. Lots of people moved to the Boiling Isles in hopes of being able to use magic again and that didn't worked out thanks to the witches not needing an outside source to use their magic," Fu Dog said.

"Well at least it be a nice place to spend summer," Jake said. He and the others have been leading the movement for the young to become friends with non-humans and the camp would be a big event. Him and his friends going would be a big PR move and it's not like he has to tell the elders what he finds or only tell them.

"Also, Juniper is going as well," Fu Dog adds.

"Cool, we finally be able to speak face to face," Jake said.

XJ9 or Jenny was busy as usually as she with XJ8 track down some rouge animal machines. The merge had brought with it a complex from a world that had been wipe clean of life and only brought back to life by the A.I. Gaia. Along with humans that live in a world that have been teraformed by machine like animals, in the ruins of a technology advance world.

Now in the rebuilt GAIA Prime, Ms. Wakeman, Jenny's mom was able to repair and restart GAIA and get all the robots from that world under control. Now she's the CEO of GAIA Prime that uses the teraforming technology to help make the world a better place. Like turning ruin fields into fertile fields and cleaning polluted waters and using the bio-fuel that the grazer animals make into the new main fuel source instead of oil.

Jenny used the cauldron where the robot animals are built to upgrade her sisters, giving them new bodies that are like hers. Now each of them are shattered around the country to help protect the nation. Seeing how Skyway Patrol was disbanded after the current government was formed, saw how incompetent they are in doing anything without tons of paperwork being filed to do anything. They simply refused to do anything without orders signed in triplicate, sent in, sent back, queried, lost, found, subjected to public inquiry, lost again, and recycled. Not to mention that they used a pigeon to deliver attack forms to let Skyway Patrol to do anything.

A new unit was from name S.C.P. Secure, Contain, Protect, which now is running all of the old Skyway Patrol bases and are actually doing the job in protecting without all the paperwork that use to have to be filed first. As for the former members of Skyway Patrol they were laid off with them being informed that they're a bunch of over-glorified legalese bureaucrats who expect people to fill out paperwork in duplicate and triplicate before taking any action whatsoever, and any heroic action done without proper paperwork is considered dangerous.

When Skyway Patrol tried to fight against it, they were given a taste of their own bureaucrat ways by giving them overwhelming heaps of paperwork to be filled out in duplicate, triplicate, and other multiples beyond that, leaving them with a burden full of excessive paperwork to be authorized and notarized. All just to get the forms they need to fill out for a reversal of their disbanding of their agency. The former members are all now out of government work and looking for new jobs. And needlessly to say they're all discovering that besides some very limited number of jobs where filing papers in duplicate and triplicate like in law firms and banks, they weren't wanted. With many having to put up with their new jobs having them do things without filing the right paperwork, with them having to work to earn their paycheck. (5)

Jenny and her sisters are now working with the SCP in keeping the US safe. Containing any dangerous creatures and arresting people, placing them in cells design to hold them. Her world already had supervillains so there were already people who know how to safely contain people with superpowers. There are other agencies that deal with strange things too, like the one that dealt with a demon family and onis who could summon ninjas. All of them are working together to handle any big treat.

Jenny and her sisters have also been called to help with big problems around the world. Jenny and her sisters enjoy having people who like having them around. Not taking them for granted in all that they do in saving the day. And that they're not seen as easily replaceable like their mom Wakeman sees them, which is why all the sisters have been avoiding being with her. Each of them are now living in one of the newly built cauldrons for their home base, where they can recharge their power cells, refuel, and rearm themselves. And they been getting along with GAIA who they view as their new mother figure, who still send them to deal with rogue machines that appear now and then. Mostly when people try to modify the machine animals, causing them to go out of control.

"For some reason, the rogue machines have been appearing in the area around Equestia," GAIA informed XJ9.

"Is there an unaccounted cauldron near there?" XJ9 ask.

"There isn't but the machines aren't just mine, there are those malfunctioning Robco robots showing up as well," GAIA said.

"Maybe a vault or a group of robots like Captain Ironside's crew?" XJ9 ask. "Or maybe someone like the Mechanist?"

Pieces of that atomic post-apocalypse world had appeared during the merge, the casino home of Mr. House, the USS Constitution, and the underground complex that was taken over by the Mechanist, are the only known ones. Mr. House has restarted his company Robco and started to mass produce his robots again, but without the atomic power packs.

"Yes, that's what I'm thinking as well," GAIA said.

"So, who's the closest?" XJ9 ask.

"XJ6 is the closest," GAIA said.

"Alright better inform everyone who needs to know," XJ9 said.

She's happy that her sisters get to go around and save the day like her and they're much happier. But she doesn't go out as much anymore as she's stuck in her sector unless her sisters need help and even then, it's the closest sisters who comes to the aide of the one who calls for help. Then again, she is now part of a real family and not just a project that her mom made and then turns off and sticks her in the basement to replace her with a new sister.

Gravity Falls Brighton -

Inside the bookstore Book Marks the Spot, that her friend Libby Stein-Torres family owns, Molly McGee is listening to the latest song from the Alraunes. Things have really changed since the town been fused with another town and ghosts are now common knowledge. Molly and Libby are setting up book display of the Alraunes, entertainers from Garden Grove in Equestria.

Rose Petal, a pink-haired, pink-clad woman whose singing keeps the other flowers alive.

Sunny Sunflower, a yellow haired and clad tomboy who tells jokes to make the other flowers laugh.

Iris, a purple and white clad painter of the group. Her paintings of flowers are for sale in the gift shops of the garden.

Orchid, a purple clad shopaholic with white hair.

Lily Fair, a blue haired and clad ballet dancer.

Fuchsia, is a fashion designer, whose floral creations are the rage around the garden.

Gladiola, is a happy-go-lucky tap dancer with a lot of get-up-and-go.

Cherry Blossom, is the resident interior decorator. She has a real eye for color and style.

Sweet Violet, is a southern actress with a star quality and taste for the dramatic.

"Wow I can't believe your mom manage to get these promotional books," Molly said.

"Sunset is trying to make as much money as she can. Both groups do have interesting backstories," Libby said. "By the way where is Scratch?"

"Another meeting," Molly said.

"Still can't believe that Scratch is now the ghost in charge of the ghost world," Libby said.

"At least the Frightmares are being taken care of by Danny and Dani Phantom. I had no idea that the Flow of Failed Phantoms was also a prison for dangerous ghosts," Molly said.

"At least they're being taken prisoner by that warden from the Ghost Zone," Libby said.

"Scratch said that it's part of a deal the warden made with the government to handle ghosts that cause trouble and need to be lock up," Molly said as she and Libby return back to stocking the display with books.

In Canterlot Castle -

Sunset sat in her office as she looks over the latest sales reports and figures from all the assets that now belong to her, after her mother Celestia step down. Which she didn't had much choice, not after Sunset drop the bombshell that she abandons her because she wasn't what she wanted and replace her with a student who would bark and jump when told. Her own adopted daughter who she took in to raised and then cast aside when she wasn't the tool she wanted.

Now she rules with her aunt Luna and cousin Cadance over Equestria in this new world. Sunset prove herself as a ruler by heading the charges that were needed to be done to keep the kingdom together. As a unicorn by birth and thanks to being transformed into a human which she is now stuck as, she knows how both sides think and act. She managed to get Equestria be like a Native American reservation once the new government began to get everything up and running across the country again. They are self-governing on the most part but still follow the laws of the state and the federal.

Sunset had her hands full in getting the ponies to get use to the new worlds they're in and how much of their magic is now gone. All the unicorns can still use telekinesis, but now in this new world magic spells for most unicorns could only be used a spell up to 3 times before they're out, unless their talent is magic.

The pegasuses can still fly but they can't control the weather of this world, they can control the clouds from their world or made from the weather factory but other clouds they can't.

Earth ponies can no longer be able to just grow crops super fast anymore, as crops need fertilizers, and good soil. They couldn't just put seeds in the ground anymore and let magic do the rest.

No more spell casting magic, weather control, or fast-growing crops. Needless to say, the ponies as Sunset remembers them, all panic and ran around screaming.

Once she was sitting on the throne Sunset quickly went to work to get things into order. Firing all the guards and having them replace by humans who actually do the job in protecting then doing nothing and leaving it to a group of young ponies to do it instead. The only way the old guards would be able to get their old jobs back would be retraining by human standards so that, when something happens, they actually show up. Which after the whole Changeling invasion with the only ones who did anything to stop it were the human polices while the royal guards were nowhere to be found and only showed up afterwards when everything was over. Gave Sunset all the excuse she needed to fired them on the spot, both Luna and the real Cadance agreed with her. Seeing how none of them were there to help during the battle, the captain was under mind control and Celestia was going with a wedding when there was a threat to the kingdom, which discredit her.

Sunset still had to go to school but on her spare time she helps run things with Luna and Cadance. Who followed her plan in turning Equestria into a resort, once things had settle down and there was a government to run the infrastructure to keep the country running. Other countries weren't lucky and are still in chaos, with other countries who got everything in order helping where they can.

As for the human counterparts of the ponies, the local government is still around helping to run the new Equestria. Sunset plan to turn Equestria into a resort distraction went well, the money was coming in from people who wanted time away from the chaos back home. They also made money from the crops, the gem mines with the growing gem crystals and gold mines where the bits came from. And the biggest draw of people who went crazy over cute talking ponies.

Currently she's looking over the numbers the new entertainments she has hired are bringing in.

The Alraunes a group of tiny flower women, till the use of a crystal that can change the size of things once it's attached to a flashlight change them to full size women. They do have abilities, from being able to spread pollen, from the giant flowers on their heads, that are often mistaken for hats, they also can grow vines and some of them can grow thorns. They're working as entertainers in the Garden Grove, a large park with many different areas for the tourists to walk around in, go to the restaurants, shops, the indoor or outdoor theaters. As well as gardeners thanks to their plant growing powers.

Then there are the Kindles another group of former tiny women before they were grown to human size. They are six young women who are mushroom women. Like the Alraunes they have mushroom abilities, spreading spores that grow into edible mushrooms and they glow in the dark. They also work in the garden, mostly in the area for young children. And in the mushroom farm where fresh mushrooms are harvested for the restaurants.

With the Kindles ability to grow any kind of mushrooms anywhere that is dark and damp, the mushroom farm is growing rare and expensive mushrooms. Truffles that could only be found in certain regions and environments, are now being farmed when they couldn't before or not as hard to get them to grow. Not to mention being able to grow them out of their season.

The phone on Sunset's desk rang and she answers it. She talks to the person on the other end before ending the call. She began calling another number and waited for the person to pick up.

"Danny, I need you and Dani to look into something for me," Sunset said to her heroes for hirer.

"What is it this time?" Danny asks his boss.

"It seems that the machines and robots that have been causing trouble are being drawn to here for some reason. Got a call from the SCP about one of the XJ sisters, XJ6 coming over to investigate the matter. You and Dani while on patrol are to help her whenever you can," Sunset said.

"Right away boss," Danny said before hanging up.

"Calling on your hired heroes again?" a voice ask her.

"What is it Discord?" Sunset ask not bothering to look up from her paperwork.

"Oh, you're no fun," Discord said appearing in front of her.

"Well seeing how you most of the reality bending magic you use to have with only your shape shifting powers left. You are not that scary compared to what the other worlds have to offer. Besides after getting to know, you, all you really needed were people who unlike the ponies who ran and scream if they couldn't control it, found you funny and wanted to be your friends," Sunset said.

"Finally taking Celestia's lessons to heart?" Discord asks.

"She made a better teacher than mother," Sunset said bitterly. "That's why she's now working as a teacher with her human counterpart."

"Well, you are running things better and more open to things that are different. Like giving me a royal pardon after having served my time," Discord said.

"The SCP have been imprisoning people like you ever since they were setup. And with your knowledge of things that are chaos in nature, it's better to have you around to help then being imprison. And you being able to shapeshift with no known limits, like Impossible Man from Marvel, makes you way too useful. Celestia just cuddled the ponies too much, they're still scared of humans because we eat meat," Sunset said.

"Yes, you eating those porkchops at the royal party with the other meat eaters did shock many of the ponies," Discord said.

"Well, they just have to get use to it. Besides my human family lives on a pig farm. I like pork," Sunset said before looking up at Discord. "So why you drop by? Is it about Twilight?"

"Nope sorry still can't find a hair of her," Discord said.

"She needs to be found. Cadance and Luna are worried sick about her, I thought she would be just Celestia's lap dog, but she did try to expose the Changelings, till the merge did it for her," Sunset said.

"Yes, I have heard of things like that happening but never been apart of it before. Shorts out all magic when it happens no matter how powerful like freeing me. But that Star Butterfly destroying most of the magic sources, now that's something else," Discord said snapping his fingers and making a soda appear in his hands and took a drink. "I still have some of my old magic but her destroying magic has depowered me from what I use to be."

"That's why I have you on the payroll. You know things that no one else knows," Sunset said. It was Discord who revealed that because of certain actions all taking place at the same time in the worlds that are whole when they merged, is the reason why it happens as it did. Star's dimension would had only merged with the ones closest to hers. But as Discord said because of people doing something that open a hole in time and space at that very moment, or something like Lisa Loud's radio managing to get the right wavelength to sync with the merge, the number of worlds merged got bigger, not to mention bits and pieces of others. Also thanks to what happen with the three girls in the frog world, the Boiling Isles, all happening in the same world at the same time didn't help matters.

"Also, there is something strange about Gravity Falls. I can enter and leave whenever I want but I'm sure that if I was at full power, I wouldn't be able to leave," Discord said.

"Aunt Luna said the same thing when she first visits the town. What do you make of it?" Sunset asks.

"I have no idea. I heard of places that are design to trap beings once they enter but never encounter one myself," Discord said.

"Well, I guess I can always ask Star when she gets here. She and her family are coming to stay for the summer," Sunset said.

"Oh, that's great, I always wanted to meet her," Discord said.

"Well from what I was told your show is a big hit at Echo Creek," Sunset said.

"I really should had visited the human world when I had the chance. They're so much more fun than ponies," Discord said.

"The show wouldn't be held back by the shows budget if you had," Sunset said. "Any new ideas why this all happen or why so many places ended up here of all places?"

"I'll say it's a weak spot that opens to other dimensions. While you can open portals to other worlds anywhere, it is easier to open one where it's the weakest, like breaking a wall where there's a crack already. You know where to apply the pressure to break through. And would explain all the things that keep on appearing around Gravity Falls. The crack won't allow anything that powerful to slip through but till it's sealed things will keep on appearing. Like a leaking dam, all dams leak but once you see water coming out in streams that's when things will get bad," Discord said looking around the office. "Which is why you have so many magical items to put on display."

Sunset has been collecting magical items that have been appearing around Gravity Falls Brighton. Either sending people to collect them or people turning them in for the reward money she's offering for any item found. She's been using them as displays for her office.

A golden lance that looks to be nothing more than a simple short staff. Once activated for battle, it sprouts two long blades on each tip, then splits into a pair of swords. (Galtar and the Golden Lance)

A encrusted magic armlet that fires ice if the diamond is pressed and fire if the ruby is pressed, the emerald doesn't do anything. (Galtar and the Golden Lance)

A long boomerang that is made up of three different smaller boomerangs, red, blue, and yellow, that splits up into pieces when thrown and combine back together when they return. (Galtar and the Golden Lance)

A compass that points to what the holder desires. (Pirates of the Caribbean)

A magic lightsaber. (Thundarr the barbarian)

A trio of different colored pearls. The blue pearl that gives to the person who carries it a strength so great that no power can resist them. The pink pearl protects its owner and anyone they touches from all dangers that may threaten, no matter what the source. The white pearl can speak, and its words are always wise and helpful. (Land of Oz)

Magical eyeglasses that reveal the immediate future to the wearer. (Land of Oz)

A magic umbrella that can take the holder anywhere in the world, by flying there and the user holding onto it. It is a large umbrella, as long as an eight- or nine-year-old child is tall. It is far from new; once covered in thick brown cloth, it has faded with the years to a dull drab (except in the creases). It has been described as looking common and very old-fashioned. Its wooden handle is carved in the shape of an elephant's head, the long trunk was curved to form the crook of the handle. The elephant has small red gems for eyes, and two tiny tusks of ivory. (Land of Oz)

What looks like a supersuit that would give the wearer incredible powers, if it wasn't for there isn't a battery to power it. (Earthworm Jim)

Several magic wands and staffs, most of them don't work anymore.

The size changing crystal.

A jug that has the power to trap anything or anyone inside of it when the one using it says 'Get In' on what they can see. Once inside the jug nothing can break out from the inside. Can only hold one thing at a time.

A American penny that while being held by someone who makes contact with something will turn anything into copper. The effect can be reverse by the user touching the thing that was change into copper a second time while holding the penny. (SCP - 1015)

A pocket watch that allows the user to control any linear process. It specifically allows the user to slow down, speed up, reverse, pause, or prolong any process, be it the firing of a bullet, a fall from a great height, the time of day, or the age of a person or object. The catch is that once a process has been finished, it's completely beyond their control; for instance, the user can't float back in the air once they hits the ground, and they can't "unbreak" what's already been broken.

A metal bracelet that cause any type of damage or status effect hitting the wearer, the damage and effect be done to the attacker instead.

A staff with a purple orb on top of it that has the power to nullifies all forms of power, in a radius of at the maximum range of a mile. It doesn't matter what kind of power or magic or being it is, once in the field of effect, all powers and abilities will be gone. Making the area of effect completely normal, where beings and things either lose all their powers or just cease to be.

A ring that allows the user to use less energy while using magic.

A necklace that protects the wearer from any form of magic by absorbing it and restoring the wearer's health and energy.

A rune in a small crystal ball that Sunset calls it the Rune of Friendship. The owner of the rune can enhance all of their personal belongings so that only their friends can touch or use the item. Can only be freely given away to someone willingly who is the owners friend. Which is why Sunset is able to have all of the magical items on display as people who aren't her friends just have no desire to touch the items on display.

Sunset herself is sitting on a magical chair. It's a large chair made of varnished oak and bleached leather, carved in the form of a reclining woman in a restful state. (SCP-1609)

"Can't have them just floating around and be misused. Too many former magic users will do anything to get their hands on these items. At least Tartarus is up and running to hold the sapient ones that are dangerous," Sunset said.

"Celly really didn't like you handing over the prison for the deal you made with the government," Discord said.

"It's not like there was any reason to hold onto it. All the prisoners escape when the merge happen. Which besides the magic cells the only guard was the dog with 3 heads," Sunset said. (6)

"Well, whatever they're doing there is big," Discord said having seen all the construction going on over there.

"Building it to be a real prison and expanding it. Locking away people and things that are simply too dangerous to ever be allowed to be let loose," Sunset said.

"Like the Changeling Queen?" Discord asks.

"Have no idea where they lock her away. The magic of the Changelings magic thing disappeared and the only one that didn't change was her," Sunset said.

"Well, I have a show to do," Discord said as he transforms into a bird and flew out the window.

Sunset went back to work on the plans she's working on to keep Equestria running. Not to mention the schoolwork she still needs to do. She might be a ruler of Equestria, but she is still underage and expected to have an education. And the only reason why she goes to the same school, is that it be too much of a bother to go to one of those ivy schools that are still running. Not to mention she's already dealing with stuck up nobles who think they're better than anyone else.

Secret Location -

Reagan Ridley sat in front of her terminal as she looks over the data coming in. The tests done on Anne Savisa Boonchuy, Sasha Elizabeth Waybright, and Marcy Regina Wu, came up with that while they do have trace amounts of the power they used to fight the artificial moon in the frog world. What's left isn't enough for them to be able to use their super forms, and that Boonchuy is a copy of the original who sacrificed herself to stop the moon. Who according to what she revealed, would become the next guardian of the multiverse from the guardian who created her from the original after she dies at the age of 91. They are a multidimensional entity who created the Calamity Gems and implanted them in Amphibia as a test to find a replacement.

Reagan wanted to contact the guardian to know what happen to cause the merge to happen but there's no way to contact the guardian. She turn to the Butterfly family but the only one who would have any idea, was Glossaryck and the Magic High Commission, who are all gone once magic of their world was destroyed. And Discord the only spirit of chaos around that they can talk to, said that he has no idea who the guardian is or who Glossaeyck was. Explaining that just because he's a spirit of chaos and very old, doesn't mean he knows beings who are higher level than him or know that many others. At best he has heard stories of other beings in the rare times he has interacted with other beings like himself. Which in his own words, is very rare as the last time he actually talked with someone else like him was back when there was an evil magical goat running around.

Then there's what happening in Connecticut in the town of Gravesfield. A portal to the demon realm and on the decaying body of a titan that is the Boiling Isles. The witch race who can still use magic, closely control who enters the Boiling Isles. They don't want former magic users going crazy trying to get their magic back. While those wizards and witches from that Harry Potter world in England are all dead, they didn't want to take any chances with a repeat. And they're still rebuilding their homes. The Collector has gone off somewhere in space and there isn't anyway to contact him for information. But seeing how the Collector is just a child who didn't understood what death meant, he might not know anything.

When all the changes that happen thanks to the merge, many of the secret groups had been exposed and other secrets, to the point it couldn't be covered up causing her bosses to change their plans. The Order of the Black Robes, the heads of the Illuminati, the Deep State, the Atlantis and Hollow Earth coverups, and a dozen other conspiracies, and they are secretly pulling the strings of every major government on Earth... And also act like a normal, surprisingly civil board of directors, have decided to change up things now that so many things have been completely been blown out into the open. Also that most of the worlds merged with theirs, aren't populated by idiots, with the world where Professor Membrane hails from is even more dumb to the point it's amazing that they even managed to survive for that long. (7)

They're changing their plans and reorganizing things, leaving Reagan to see if she couldn't figure out how the merge happen and what could be done to reverse it. They're too busy dealing with new rival groups that have popped up and dealing with people who aren't too dumb to live. It all came to ahead as the many different groups went against each other in a shadow war, when suddenly they all found themselves short of money causing many employees to leave once their paychecks began bouncing. Leaving most of the groups and the Black Robes just a hollowed out husk of their former selves, with them losing control of the groups and governments they use to pull the strings of, ending with them just disappearing. (8)

With many people leaving Cognito Inc. and other groups, Reagan reorganized the company as SCP, Secure, Contain, Protect, to became a police force to handle the many new dangers and the villains that have appear, all funded by the government with the group working for them. Which she had to as like all the other groups, they did do shady things but they also kept many dangers locked up. Which is why she reached out to other groups when she decided to create the SCP And pooling what's left of their groups remaining resources together.

Reagan rubs her head as she's getting nowhere fast, and she has other responsibilities to attend to, with how she's the head of SCP. Leaving her to handle the minutia necessary to keep things running. She's not working for the Black Robes anymore but she still wants to see if she can figure out why all of this happen and if there's a way to reverse it. She brings up a screen on her terminal.

On the screen is Dr. Amelia Buck, a researcher who ended up in this world during the merge with a small group. Who has joined up with Cognito Inc. shortly after the merge, seeing how they have no way to get back home as there are infinite universes to go through just to find the right one. And where she got the idea to form a group modeled after the SCP, but more open and less cloak and dagger.

"Ridley what do, I owe the pleasure?" Buck ask.

"Get your team ready, I'm sending you all to Equestria. The new base near the crash spaceship is nearly complete and the prison is up and running. Items are appearing in the nearby town of Gravity Falls Brighton and even before the merge strange things kept on happening around there. I need your team to figure out what's happening there and also get in touch with Danny Phantom. He knows Clockwork the ghost of time and can get in contact with him and we can see what he knows," Reagan said.

"Isn't there anyone else?" Buck ask.

"No, most of the old guard are gone or training new recruits or like me are up to our necks with the day to day tasks and paperwork to keep things running. My schedule is too pack for me to just go off no do stuff like I use to, and no Brett is busy working in Human Resources," Reagan said.

"I'll inform the others," Buck said signing off.

Reagan brings up another screen showing pictures of a triangle with one eye. From cave paintings, pots, and more recent, the triangle creature keeps on appearing. Even in the Demon Realm there are pictures and stories of a strange dream demon that keeps on appearing. Which all seem to come from the valley where Gravity Falls Brighton is located. She needs to find someone who knows something about this Bill Cipher.

Author's Notes -

1 - Seeing how easy it is for magic to be used in Star Vs Evil is, in this story all the safe to use magic is now gone, where it was like using a tool is now like in fiction where using power is cast from lifespans. Where using a simple spell to lift a piece of paper is now costing you a year off of your life each time you used a spell. For the magic users who lost their magic and try using a different source of magic, which in real life is you using diesel in a gas engine, which will gum up and damage your car. The only expeditions are the magic users who have been using it already like a diesel engine won't be harm at all by the diesel used to power it unlike a gas one.

2 - With how much of a crapsack world Invader Zim's Earth is with almost all the humans very dumb to the point where someone like Zim can do what he does and no one even notice him. People from a more realistic setting would avoid them at all cost.

3 - The sad part is that even with a school that has monsters and other non humans going to it with the human children. It's still school with all the pains that come with it.

4 - The fictions where people actually know about the magical and supernatural world and do their best to live with each other is low. Thanks to it's just makes a better story for the magic world to remain fearful that the muggles will always just go to war just because of how people acted in the past. Instead of making a plot where it's the younger generation who made the changes and stop listening to their elders in how to act towards each other. Like in real life where younger people who don't care about what so and so did in the past, makes a friend out of someone according to how the elders say they should be bitter enemies.

5 - With Skyway Patrol being expected to fight and save the day, them being a military force is completely unbelievable.

6 - With how useless all the guards are, I'm surprise how one 3 headed guard dog kept the big bad villains from escaping.

7 - The world setting of Inside Job only works because like Invader Zim, most of the people both human and non humans, are too dumb to live.

8 - Seeing what kind of world Inside Job is, having the many different groups suddenly having money problems and paychecks begin to bounce, many of the groups would have people leaving in mass.
