20 Fall 517 Sitting the paper animal down Tierra looked down at the jumbled letters she had written down. This had to be a clue! Taking pencil back she ran the tip of her pencil over and over again, trying to see patterns or something that would help crack the code. At first she see anything. On the what seems to have been the fourth time through the coded words she started to see at least one pattern. The letters 'BLFI' were repeated in a number of places. She underlined them, it was a starting point the orphan thought. Once she underlined those four letters she saw that two of the groups were exactly the same, these she circledspoiler shows them in bold. She went back through the jumbled lettered now feeling that there really was a hidden message in the letters that were lied out before her. Glancing up from cryptic message to paper animal she smiled, it seemed to be watching her every move. Occasionally it would come up and nudge her hand to keep going, as if to say not to get discouraged. A smile graced her face at the animal's desire for her to crack the code as much as she wanted to. It felt nice to have a friend, well as much as a friend as a small paper animal could possibly be. Shrugging off her jacket though the orphan tossed it down on the bed, not realizing that her key she had placed in the pocket last season had fallen out in pure sight of anyone. Her attention was back on the message, diving back into determining it's hidden message. “C'mon c'mon there has to be a clue... Something that I am not seeing.” Tierra muttered, the blunt end of her pencil finding its way in between her teeth to chew on without much thought to it. Her eyes ran over the message several more times, “KIVKZIV BLFI HVOEVH IZELP GSV RMEVI...” Her eyes widened, she had found another clue! The letters V and I were repeated in combination of each other, she boxed these offall combinations of VI and IV are colored in yellow and paused. An odd sound had distracted her from the puzzle before and she looked around for the noise, it was the little animal creature eating something. Paper! It was eating paper, it had somehow found a strip of paper and started to somehow consume it, as it did though the girl could see the written words on it. It was her key! “No no no!” she went to grab for at it trying to pull it out from the creature's mouth but was too late. The strip of paper had disappeared into the valley fold that constituted as it's mouth. “Give that back!” She picked it up and pulled at the folds, pulling it open. It was only paper after all there were no guts but what was revealed was something rather odd... Printed all over the paper in odd locations were the paired letters. AZ, BY, etc... But there was only 13 that she had counted. Thirteen pairs... Tierra set the paper animal down and thought about it, Thirteen pairs of letters. That makes sense, each letter is just its corresponding letter at the end of the alphabet. A and Z, B and Y, C and X. Setting it down though she watched the animal refold itself, this time it briefly took the shape of a triangle, with a point pointing downward. The letters 'IR' where positioned at the bottom tip in pure sight of Tierra before the shape folded up more and a swan took its place. What the code looks like currently. :
