Advertisement
Dipper and Pacifica are now on the outskirts of town, they are now near a town named Martinsville.
"What time is it?" Pacifica asked.
Dipper checks his phone.
"Almost 11 pm," said Dipper.
"Ugh, Serriously, its almost tomorrow and I'm starving," said Pacifica.
"I think there's a diner nearby," said Dipper.
"It could be closed," said Pacifica.
"Most Diners are open 24 hours a day just so drunk people have a place to go get food at 2AM," said Dipper.
Just like that, they find a local diner.
"How do you..."
"My family used to go on Roadtrips a lot," said Dipper.
Dipper and Pacifica walk into to see a 50's style diner, somewhat similar to a Johnny Rockets.
Dipper and Pacifica sit down and our handed two menus.
"What are you going to get?" Dipper asked.
"I don't know something filling we'll be going around for awhile," said Pacifica.
"I'm sorry I have to ask, where are you trying to go?" Dipper asked.
"The one place my dad would never go," said Pacifica, "Malibu, California."
"Why there?" Dipper asked.
"I don't know he hates beautiful things," said Pacifica, "Which is ironic because he buys beauty products for my mom in bulk?"
They then got their food, Pacifica got pancakes while Dipper got a Turkey club sandwich.
After that the check came.
"I got this," said Pacifica.
Pacifica goes throw her bag grabs a hundred dollar bill.
"Are you trying to piss a place that don't take bills over 20 off?" Dipper asked.
"The waitress will keep the change," said Pacifica.
"That's an $82 tip," said Dipper.
"I know Math, I maybe blonde but I'm not dumb," said Pacifica. (words to live by)

The waitress then comes for the check.
"Keep the change," said Pacifica.
"I was already going to I own this place," said the waitress.
As they got up to leave they notices a photo booth looking thing, that read the words, "Karaoke Power."
"Huh most diners usually have Mario game cabinets," said Dipper.
"Wby don't we try it out?" Pacifica asked.
"Are you sure?" Dipper asked.
"Hey doesn't hurt to have a little fun running away," said Pacifica.
Pacifica walks into the booth.
"Welcome to Karaoke Power," said the machine, "Insert $5 to play."
"$5 what a rip," said Pacifica.
Pacifica pokes her head out.
"You wouldn't happen to have $5 on yah?" Pacifica asked.
"What you can't break a $100?" Dipper asked.
"That's littlerally the only king of bills I have," said Pacifica.
Dipper goes into his wallet and pulls out a $5 bill.
"You owe me," said Dipper.
"Deal," said Pacifica.
Pacifica inserts the $5 bill.
"Select your song," said The machine.
Pacifica looks through the song list and chooses one.
"3 2 1, Go," said The machine.

Somewhere in the world there is a father and a mother
And the father is a son, who has a mother
The mother has a daughter who gets married to the brother of a mother
And they all just tryna multiply with one another

It never ends till the end, then you start again
That's just the way of the world

Somewhere in the world they think they're working for themselves

And somebody works for them and so they think they've got it made

And the bank robbed the people, so the people rob the bank
And the police came to get him but they let him get away

"Congrats you got 100%, Great Job," said The Machine.
"Uh Pacifica," said Dipper.
Pacifica walks out of the booth and sees a black car outside.
"Dipper," said Pacifica.
"Yeah?" Dipper asked.

Oracle by Default
Oracles are known as divine handouts passed down from the Holy Creator. There are times when evil exist and the Holy Creator wishes to intervene, to which the title of the Oracle is bestowed upon an individual to become the Creator's will in physical form. The Oracle's mission is to then gather heroes from different races to purge the evil. “For the reckoning that is to come, all are tested. Thou shall be the shadow of which valiant souls shine and guide thee through harsh trials. Till oblivion comes, do not turn astray but to continue down the path thou chosen to walk. Lastly, thou must not see eye to eye with, but against the world.” A mysterious man engraved a seal onto Kihet before saving him from being consumed by the flames. The seal seems to have a strong connection with the legends of the Oracle and a Tower with no entrance that suddenly sprouted near the village. Throughout years, his efforts to study the strange tower remained fruitless. Then one day, the village decided it was time for his friends and him to become envoys to look for the potential evil the Holy Creator detected. Before Kihet can set off on his journey alongside his friends, he has his own set of problems to overcome against the village. Note: It's slow. There is romance, but it plays a small role that I don’t know if I should add it in the tags. Main story starts at Chapter 12. Chapters before do contain meaningful context for the rest of story.
