The Reservoir (4) : The Destiny City Reservoir opened about two years ago and is an easy escape from the big city. It’s a five minute drive outside of the Eastern side of town and features clear water and sandy beaches--although, the sand here is notorious for squeaking when you step on it. It’s a hot spot for all fun summer activities, but it’s been in the news for mysterious reports of some strange, aquatic monster. Some accounts say they’ve spotted a twenty foot long, snake like creature capable of rearing a long neck high above the water. It’s hard to tell if the videos are doctored, but there are too many rumors to dismiss easily. Something strange might be lurking deep in the water. Or it’s just a hoax to get people out to the Reservoir!
But…Sometimes, people feel like something is grabbing their ankle, even if they are just wading in the shallow end. In the deeper parts of the water, it gets a little more intense: something has been said to grab onto ankles and pull. People have been warned about dangerous pranks, but so far no one has been caught. In the shallow end, anyone unfortunate enough to be targeted may feel themselves being knocked off their feet and tugged into the water; anyone in deep water may feel a firm grip on their ankle, tugging them lower and lower. Somehow, anyone it targets is freed--either by wriggling and fighting, or because someone intervenes and pulls the would-be victim up. No one has drowned in the lake. Yet. It's impossible to see who, or what, is doing this, but it usually gives up after one failed attempt. Usually.
While you may find yourself harassed by the supposed cryptid, or see something visibly odd in the distance, you cannot take any pictures of the creature. Who knows if you’re even being attacked by the cryptid–or just another youma?

Iduna was incredibly bad at keeping up with her powered friends, ugh. It was hard when you couldn't just, call 'em up, because they were part of the Negaverse and not part of the White Moon. It didn't help having to juggle a part time job, her patrols and college at the same time. In all, she'd done about jack in the last two years since she'd grown from a chibi to a full senshi.
Since she'd met Lazurite.
Stars she felt like a terrible person. Either they'd just kept missing each other or Lazurite was avoiding her or she was just making some sort of excuse up for not showing up last year when the Star Festival came around again. She didn't even have any good stories to talk about, except helping some senshi purge Chaos from his world. She just.
Forgot, she guessed.
Iduna pulled herself up onto the side of the reservoir wall and groaned into her hands. Like every year, there was something trying to kidnap people in the water, and like every year, she could never actually find it. So really, she was just sitting here, in the twilight, because she was hoping that Laz would show up miraculously and be all buddy buddy with her again.
Lazurite was so damn nice but she just dropped the whole ball on... everything.
"Stars am I a piece of s**t friend ugh..."
