Ford closed his eyes as memories started to replay in his head. He sighed and opened his eyes. "This journal as well as two others were stolen from me thirty years ago. I wrote these journals to document my findings of this rural town including the supernatural activity."
"Then... Then you're... They..." She smiled as she realized something. "You're an expert on the supernatural!"
Ford smiled a tiny bit as he placed one hands on each of Dipper and Mabel's shoulder. "I want to ask you two something. Can you help me find the other two journals?"
Mabel widen her eyes in shock at this questions. "Why us?" She asked.
"Because I've been searching for thirty years and not once was I able to get a trace on them. But you two found one of my journals on your first day here. It makes me wonder if you two can find the other two during the course of your stay here."
Mabel glanced at Dipper and he looked at her. He nodded with a smile which Mabel took as a yes. She smiled as she looked at Ford. "We'll do it."
Ford smiled as he released his hands from their shoulders. "Thank you." He grabbed the journal and gave it to Mabel. "Keep it. You'll need it more than me." After giving Mabel the journal, he stood up and walked out of the room leaving Mabel and Dipper alone in the room.
Mabel stared at the journal as she gently touched it with her hand. She couldn't believe it. Ford wrote this journal. He knew everything about the supernatural and weirdness at Gravity Falls. He was an expert and a person she could look up to. And so if he needed their help, she was going to help him. Even if it took their whole winter break. Because Ford was a person she felt she could trust. Especially when he researched what she loved to question.
