Quote: Radioactive Mysteries (13) : Destiny City has been booming, but with more people you need more power. Recently, an old power plant has been renovated and updated and just opened for business–but now people have been claiming dizziness or fatigue when in the area. Not to mention the animals. So far one shady, blurry video has been posted online of a strange bear-shaped humanoid ‘monster’ in the area. It’s difficult to tell if it’s a hoax or not, but whether or not you believe it, it might be a good idea to keep your eye out if you’re in the area. Especially because if you pass through, you feel like something’s watching you. It doesn’t have an aura so it can’t be a youma, but if you poke around too late at night you might find a strange creature that's built like a bear, covered in fur, but which has a strangely human presence. Something about it is just off--or, maybe it’s just your imagination. Maybe it’s just someone in a costume having a bit of fun at your expense. Still, its claws are sharp and it’s fast. When it runs through the forests, the trees seem to crack upon impact, and if you explore during the daytime you might find strange scratches and odd markings in the grass. The longer you’re in the area, the dizzier you get. Note: If you choose to encounter the strange creature, your character will recognize that it is not a youma. The creature seems smart enough to understand human words but does not respond and does not seem to listen. It will always disappear before it can be caught or gravely injured. It was something people were whispering about, with a certain concern coloring their words, that the power plant which had been reopened had some sort of creature hanging out there. It was in the woods and attacked people, if they got so unlucky as to run across it, but it was there and if that didn't get to a person than the headaches and dizziness would. She could only think that the place was leaking perhaps, though that also made no snese to her. If there was some sort of contamination than people would know - right? It wouldn't be hidden or covered up and people would be a lot sicker, and dying, so it couldn't be a leak.
She wanted to know what it was however, she was just too damn curious about this, she was thinking it was magic or a youma. Maybe even some sort of a plot going on with the Negaverse, though hadn't something just recently happened involing a bank and a fire? She'd seen it on the news.
Not wanting to worry her cousins, as both were still rather protective of her, she had instead asked someone else who was sort of family. Seung's brother in-law was who she'd asked.
Matt was someone she figured she could trust and he wouldn't worry endlessly over her like her own two cousins would, and Terry would have asked Seung to come so she couldn't trust asking Terry either.
Already powered up and waiting for him, towards the entrence to the power plant grounds, she was brushing her hair from her face and looking around nervously as if something might already be watching her. This place gave off the creeps if you asked her.

Rumors of creatures was always something worth investigating when it comes to Destiny City as at least nine times out of ten there is indeed something. It could be anything between a youma, just a plain Negaverse plot, or one of the many random creatures that seem to show up with no explanations. That being said, when Matt had heard about the bear like creature and saw the blurry footage, he knew he had to take it seriously due to those reasons, especially when it sounded like the creature was attacking people. And that didn't even take into account the strange reactions people were having to the Power Plant area itself.
When Eunkyung had asked him to go with her to check it out, he of course said yes. She was family after all, extended or not, and they had done patrols before together. Although that one time had ended up with Terry and Seung being lost in portals for a while... Best not to think on that right now.
He had powered up to his Page form and met her at the agreed upon place, the plant entrance. When he spotted her, the brunette gave her a smile in greeting, though his attention was caught by the area around them and the feeling of off it gave. "Sorry If I kept you waiting long."

"It's ok, this place is creepy though. I don't like it." She didn't liek the idea, it was similar to how she wouldn't like any power plant though. The idea that any plant could be giving off radiation and how silent, with no smell, it was. It was scary and something she very much didn't like in a way which she couldn't find proper words to describe. She just hoped Matt understood, somehow, what this sort of place felt like to her. Though she didn't see how he couldn't either, didn't these sorts of places creep everyone out? Especially this one with the rumors circulating about it.
"Let's see if this bear isn't around." And hopefully not suffer any symptoms people were describing. She didn't feel like having a headache right now, it wouldn't help either of them with this hunt of theirs.
"You've heard the rumors and know what we might be walking into...right?"

Siwa nodded in understanding at what she was saying. The area just gave off a vibe that was somewhat hard to describe fully other then that it was off and creepy. "Agreed. Maybe it just needs to be relocated farther away if we are lucky." He said, putting a bit of optimism in his voice to try and distract her from the general feel.
His tonfa same to his hand before he lead the way into the forest around the power plant. "I did hear them. Let me know if you start to experience any of the symptoms and I'll do the same in return." He wasn't going to go into over protective mode of course but they would have to have each other's backs if they find trouble which was, frankly very likely.

"Yes, if either of us startsn to feel off we should leave, if we let it persist we'll be useless if a bear does turn up." Or if it was something else, something more dangerous like a youma, she was hoping ti was a bear but did they even have bear inthe area? She didn't think so and she'd never heard of any getting into the city. Perhaps out past the city they had bear...but to get this far into the city? It seemed nearly impossible.
"If anything happens to use half the family will be mother henning us." The other half would be off hunting whatever had hurt them, she knew how their family was. She just wasn't sure who would go which way, they were all equally capable of doing either thing. She loved their family but some members were a bit too over the top at times. It was why she'd yet to introduce Sachio to anyone, though she was sure everyone knew she was dating someone. She kept it a good secret.
Walking through the woods, at Siwa's side, she kept herself prepared for anything which may happen. She was set in keeping silent, for now, so if anything did head their way she'd hear it quick enough to respond.

That was certainly what he had been aiming for so Siwa nodded again in agreement. So far it didn't feel like a youma was near by but there could be something hiding any youma signature so he wasn't ready to rule that possibility just yet. Of course what they could do to move a bear was limited as well so he wasn't entirely sure what they would be doing when they found it but it wouldn't be the first time planning had to be done on the fly.
"True, so hopefully nothing happens that would trip that up." He let out a sigh. Of course he could be just as bad at times he could fully admit that. But Terry took their power difference seriously even though his brother was the younger of the two.
They lapsed into silence though it wasn't awkward, just alert to anything out of the ordinary. Of course neither were good enough to move completely silently through the forest so the natural denizens would still have a fair amount of warning. However keeping quiet did seem to make a difference as Siwa could suddenly hear something in the distance that sounded like claws on a tree. He paused and held up a hand to get Hamel to stop as well in case she didn't hear it, and he listened closely.

Stopping in her tracks, Siwa's hand signaling her to do so, the super senshi kept still and silent as she listened for whatever had caught the others attention, She heard it then something against a tree, it sounded like someone carving into a tree, that wasn't good. She was certain that wasn't good because if they could both hear it, and not see the creature, it meant it was potentially how far off and yet they could hear it.
Mouthing the word Bear at the other she gave him a questioning look. If this was the bear she was wondering just how big it might be; how strong. She stood there watching, trying to pin point the directiojn the sound came from, which wasn't too hard, but she now had to wait and see if it would come for them. If not than good...if it did than they'd have to deal with it.
Mouthing a 'careful' to Siwa she took slow deep breaths in order to try and keep calm, and make as little noise as possible.
