Quote: The Scavenger Hunt (8 ) : Destiny City is hosting an annual scavenger hunt during the Star Festival to encourage people to get out and explore their city. The prize for turning in a completed scavenger hunt is a coupon booklet and a few free tickets to upcoming city events. Even if you aren’t interested in the prize, the scavenger hunt is specifically designed to take you through the city to showcase a few historic buildings, some art installations, and some of the city’s greatest accomplishments. While many of the places are familiar, during your explorations you come across a building you’ve never seen before--something that feels out of time. You’ve been in the area countless times before, so how did you miss this place? When you lay eyes on the building, you feel a strange timelessness and have the distinct sensation of being a part of something bigger. Briefly, you may see flashes of some distant past--a flickering memory that you can’t quite place or fully form. It’s hard to make out, but at some point in time you have the distinct impression of a faded figure taking your hand and telling you to do something. They sound hopeful and encouraging, like they really believe in you. By the time you blink, the visions are gone, the building is gone. The only thing that remains is a beautiful little garden and a plaque so faded that you can’t make out the inscription.

Issy decided she wanted to do the scavenger hunt so she could see the historical buildings. She figured her family could also use the booklet for the festival events as well. She didn't mind the art places either, so she was looking forward to doing this for a while now. Being Mabella in secret didn't change this at all for her. She came to one building that certainly shouldn't be where she found it. She frowned of course she couldn't even do a simple scavenger hunt without finding something paranormal. She glared at the building knowing something weird was going on something weird was always going on in this stupid city.
She felt like she had been here before even though she knew the building didn't belong her or at least didn't belong in this time and she felt like something wanted her to do something. She couldn't quiet grab it. She continued to glare at the building she knew she would figure this out and if she didn't she was going to be really annoyed. She was getting used to the feeling of agitation. There were far more questions than answers in this city after all. She had never been do annoyed in her life.

Sabrina had been itching to get to know this city more. After all her family had moved here a few years ago, and she felt like all she knew was the family hotel and the nearby craft stores. So, when she saw a flyer advertising a scavenger hunt, she had to participate! It was like the answer she didn’t even realize she needed.
So here she was dressed in black, with striped black/white stockings, and with her cute bat backpack on. She made sure to fill it with snacks and water bottles just in case she needed it. She noticed everyone was already dispersed by the time she arrived. So, she quickly grabbed a pamphlet and headed north. Not many people were going that way, but she didn’t think much about it.
After only walking a few miles she looked up and saw an old-looking building, but when she looked at the map the old building wasn’t on there. “Well this is weird. I don’t see it on the map. Could this be a hidden find?” she said as she walked closer to the old building. The closer she got the more she felt a timelessness feeling, almost like she had passed through this place thousands of times before. Accept she knew she never had not even been on patrol in this area. So why was she feeling this way now?

Issy cocked her eyebrow at the person who had joined her "Are you not from around here?" She asked curiously she didn't want to burst there bubble if they were clueless about the area and didn't think this was totally strange and paranormal. Issy already knew that this wasn't right and was totally weird. She had been in this city long enough to remember the building that was supposed to be in this spot and she knew it wasn't this one. She still wasn't going to tell this person that if they didn't know this wasn't how it was supposed to be. She had no way to tell if someone was magical or normal so she didn't want to risk blowing her cover as normal girl Issy rather than being Mabella. She understood that was a secret and not something to be shared lightly.

Sabrina heard some answer her question, and she turned towards the voice. "Oh hello there - I'm Sabrina! Well I have been here a few years, but never got out of the city much since my family owns a family hotel there," she said proud to admit that her family owned such a wonderful hotel. It had really become a big part of all their lives, and her family was the closest family she knew. She figured the hotel played a big part in that.
"How about you? And it's just I feel like this building is much older than anything on the scavenger hunt list. Not only that but I feel like it's not supposed to be here either," she hoped she didn't come across as odd, but she loved spooky stuff and if this old building was something like that she was even more happy she came on this hunt. She cautiously approached the building, running her fingers along the rough exterior. '
"Would you like to investigate it with me?" she asked as she examined the building. If it were just her she would transform, but with others nearby that was out of the question. Plus she was so curious about this building that she may have spoken a lot on accident.

Issy listened and shrugged her shoulders, whatever it didn't matter to her if they knew that this was weird or not. Issy looked at the building "I haven't been in the city for very long but no this isn't normal, it's really weird but then again this city is really weird." Issy nodded "Only way to find out about this place is to take a look makes sense to me." She said nodding again. "Let's go." She said walking toward into the building. It was strange she got the feeling again that someone needed her help and she got some strange visions. As she thought about it the thoughts faded away and the building was starting the fade away as well. Issy blinked building couldn't fade away. She crossed her arms in annoyance as she looked at the garden that now replaced the building. "Like I said weird city." She grumbled.

Sabrina couldn't argue with that fact, the city was weird - full of youmas, magical people, and talking cats. Things she now considered pretty normal, but she did have to be careful who she shared those facts with.
She just nodded and walked into the building. The second she entered she saw a flash of light, and her head started to hurt. She killed over from the pain, and in the vision she saw her Senshi with a boy that looked identical to her. It was like she had a twin, but the timeline was all off. It looked like they were somewhere in Egypt? The boy was taking her hand and asking her something. But that would be impossible she lived here in star city and as far she knew had never been to Egypt.
As the vision faded and the words the people spoke came to her head fuzzy. She noticed the building around her began to fade as well. It was like the building was there to send a message, and once that message had been sent it was no longer needed.
She rubbed her head and opened her eyes. "You're right that was weird, and this city just keeps getting weirder," she said before looking at the Garden around her that had replaced the building. She had no idea what just happened, but she knew that it was a sign of some kind.
Maybe if she continued the event she might get more visions that could answer it. She didn't know for sure, but she had to try. "You know I don't know if it was a one off, but I think I'm going to keep looking at the buildings around here. I need to know what that vision was," she said determined for some answers, "So maybe I'll see you around! Feel free to stop into my family's hotel sometime, you'll always be welcomed!" With those words she started heading out of the garden and back on the path of the scavenger hunt.
