So this is the beach where the cryptid showed up, huh? Look at this crowd!

Maybe they saw the posts online and came searching like we did?

No way! Then we better hurry or someone might beat us to it! We gotta track it down first and have it show us the way to its secret undersea palace!

Oh, so it's totally from an undersea palace now, huh? Well, I'm not about to crush anyone's dreams. I wanna befriend a cryptid too!

There are so many people trying to find it… I've got to get there first. I'll find it before anyone else does!

Oh? Looks like our former wet blanket is totally amped and ready to go now!

Wha?! I-I mean, I'm not really, but… Um, I'm gonna go look over there!

Thanks, Ayumu! We should get going, too. You look over there, Ai! I'm gonna look over here.

Got it! Wait for me, little cryptid!

[Fade in/out.]

*Sigh*

Oh! Welcome back, Honoka!

Yeah, I'm back… Huh? Where's Ayumu?

She's still… Oh, there she is! Hey, Ayumu!

*Huff* *Huff* S-Sorry I'm late.

*Chuckle* And here I thought you weren't interested.

I-I told you, I'm not!

How'd it go for you two? Any luck?

Nothin' here, unless you want to count a horse.

A-A horse?! You saw a horse out here?!

Just some toy someone dropped. But Scotland has a cryptid like that! A horse that swims in the sea! Though…wouldn't that just make it a seahorse?

*Whine* Nonexistent creatures only, please!

What about you, Ayumu?

I didn't see anything out of the ordinary either.

Man, me neither… Ugh, this is so frustrating! Where could it be hiding?

Are you sure that this whole cryptid sighting wasn't someone just seeing things wrong? Like…maybe they just saw a fish or some trash or something?

Whaaat?! There's no way! At least, I don't think so…

Do we have any more detailed info on it? Y'know like, where on the beach they saw it, or like, a clearer picture or somethin'?

Lemme check… Hmm… Nothing. All of the photos are either too far away or too dark. No one has any clear photos of it yet.

Hmm… Well, it hasn't been long since the first sighting, so I guess we'll just have to be patient if we want more info.

You're right. This is just our first day looking for it. It's not like it's gonna just leap right into our arms or anything. I mean, it's a cryptid!

That's the spirit! We'll just have to ramp up our efforts from here on out! Our cryptid catchin' crusade has only just begun!

Um… O-Okay…

We'll get more info and more people, and then we'll DEFINITELY find the cryptid!

All right! Now I'm gettin' real fired up!
