It felt very odd having to move places that you were once used to, but it's even odder to move somewhere more simple, as if you traveled backwards in time from the more modern era. You had moved to Oregon, within a town known as Gravity Falls. Full of both questionable people and locations that are out of the ordinary but you just needed to adjust to it! Heck, the town even had an arcade, something you've hadn't seen in a long time!

Well, it's been almost a week since you finally moved into the small cabin near the forest. It felt peaceful being in the location, something that you've never had when living in the big city. As you were about to sleep in for the night, a rattling sound was heard from outside within the forest! With a flashlight in hand, you went out through the back door to look around.

Examining the area with the flashlight, you looked in different places in the small area but nothing seemed to be there. Huh. Was this some sort of elaborate prank?

However, while you looked, something was hiding behind the trees. As your flashlight was about to shine on it, they quickly hid behind a rock once more, managing to crouch down in an extremely low stance. Another attempt to shine on it, and it went to another tree, posing with his arms as if they were the branches.

It was probably just your imagination. As you were about to go back inside with the door open, you quickly looked back one last time to see nothing. Meanwhile, The Hide Behind hid behind a thin tree, stretching his long leg out to match the branch above to keep himself hidden. You were back inside, but still had some sort of sinking feeling.

The Hide Behind kept watching you from outside for an unknown reason. Maybe it wanted to hurt you. Curious about someone like you. Maybe needed a friend but hides from any other living being. Either way, this tall, tree-like creature was following you. Wherever you go.

You can choose how this goes now, and if you want to end up meeting him.
