Trifecta I

## Resolution and evaluation

"Heh, if you think that story i told you wasn't scary. heard of the legend of the Rectangle?" Tetraloid said, everyone else looked at Tetra with a slightly dissapointed yet intrigued look. Hextra sat beside Tetraloid, "hexy here told me this story a while back, and i'm sure it'll shake atleast one of you to your core" Tetra said again, staring at polyzoid, the little pipsqueak of the group. "just tell us already, i'm already bored out of my guts" Trideca said, eagerly yet aggressively

"it had a long and thin body, Peculiar diamond shaped eyes. They enjoyed stalking and brutally murdering anything with even the slightest pulse, mainly through De-gloving and disembowelement. The most horrifying feature of all was it's tentacles which it used to grab and kill it's unfortunate victims, sightings are rare but it's better off to remain a distance from it.

It was theorized to have been born from a warped and distorted collision of timelines, which explains it's odd features and elusiveness. The most infamous story involving this beast is with the death of [REDACTED], where the guards instructed with guarding the young rascal took their eyes off them for a second before a bloodcurdling screech was heard from a bush. before the mangled remains of [REDACTED] were tossed out of the bush, and the unfortunate guard was dragged into the bush never to be seen again... the other guards standing by all took their own lives after seeing the mangled bloody corpse, and 4 were executed by the cheif themself.

It's cries can be heard from the darkness of the woods at night, bloodcurdling screams and sobbing. if you find yourself in that situation, Run for your life. otherwise it could be too late"

trideca was intrigued in the story, what was this elusive monster that drags anything with a heartbeat to their painful demise?. the rest of the group huddled together, shaking with fear. "Haha! you cowards don't actually belive the rectangle will come for us at night and tear us in half for the fun of it?. i heard it likes to target small pipsqueaks like you Poly-" Tetra said before being cut off, "STOP IT! YOU'RE SCARING ME!" Ovi exclaimed. "Wow, i thought that you'd take the story with a grain of salt" Trideca said. "Yeah, but the de-gloving and disembowelement part..." Ovi said, gagging. before everyone froze and supposedly looked at Tetra, "What are you guys looking at?" tetra said, unaware of what loomed over them. "t-tetra... behind y-you"

the group scurried off into the woods out of fear, Tetra was confused by the sudden change in tone of the few that were faking being scared. Trideca and Hextra wasn't beside them aswell... "It's just an unreal story... right?"

## Reckless escape

"Huff... Huff... We escaped" Ovi panted, taking a rest after running from the threat unseen by Tetra "You don't suppose the Rectangle is real, right Hextra?" Poly said, Nervously. "Ugh, Of course not!. It's just some story that tetra exaggerated when i told it to them, the Rectangle isn't real. it's just some story passed down by weirdos!" Hextra said, trying to sound brave. Unbenounced to the group that had so foolishly ran from the campsite, Black long tentacles were coiled around the trees, the darkness of dusk made them invisible. the group rested in a nearby cave, if it weren't for the dark blanket masking the tentacles, the group would've ran deeper and deeper into the woods
