Cryptid Catchin' Crusade! Ep. 5
You
Heeey everybody!
Honoka
Oh! You's here! Over this way!
You
*Giggle* Sorry to keep you all waiting! I was so excited to see you guys and the cryptid, I rushed all the way here! So, did you guys find it yet?
Ai
Sadly, not yet. And we've got nothin' on land either… I'm not saying I thought it'd be easy to find, but it's a pretty small needle in a huge haystack.
Kanan
I went diving a few times to look for it, but I didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
You
Nothing by land or by sea, huh? Guess all that's left is the sky.
Ayumu
The sky? Y-You mean, we're gonna fly?
You
Yeah! I mean, you can see super far out from the sky. I'll bet we could see way further out than we could from the shore or from the ocean.
Honoka
I see! Yeah, if we're in the sky it'd be way easier to see if it's floating around in the ocean or hanging out on a rock or on the shore somewhere!
Hanayo
But…how exactly are we gonna get up into the sky?
Ai
Let's look up what the next plane that flies over this area is and buy tickets for it!
You
We could charter a helicopter! Oh, hang on, Mari already has one, huh? Man, we should've asked Mari to come!
Ayumu
H-Hold up! There's no way we can arrange for a plane or a helicopter!
Hanayo
Hmm, what about this? I did a quick search and apparently, they're letting people go on parasailing adventures right around here.
Ai
Parasailing? Isn't that the thing where you ride on a parachute pulled by a motorboat or something?
Honoka
I bet that would totally let us see across the ocean! Let's have ourselves an adventure!
[Fade in/out.]
Ai
Parachute fitted and secured! Is everyone ready?
Ayumu
Yup. This is my first time parasailing. My heart's pounding…
You
It's not every day you get to see the ocean from high up in the sky. I'm so excited!
Honoka
Oh, looks like it's starting! Let's go on a sky-high adventure!
[Fade in/out.]
Ayumu
Oh gosh! I'm really flying! Wow, it's like I'm one with the wind!
Hanayo
Eek! Th-This is so high up!
You
I can see all the way over the horizon! This feels amazing!
You
I can see so far out over the town! Yoohoo! Aye aye! Hahaha, they probably can't hear me, huh?
You
It's just blue as far as the eye can see! Man, the ocean is just the best!
[Fade in/out.]
You
Phew, that was so fun!
Kanan
I know! Flying is a blast. It's as fun as diving in the ocean!
Honoka
It felt so good, soaring against the wind! I wanna do it again!
Ai
My spirits were pretty much soaring too! I wonder if they'll let us go again right after?
Hanayo
*Whimper* …My knees are shaking so badly… I was so scared of falling into the ocean that I couldn't even open my eyes…
Ayumu
Hanayo, are you okay?
Honoka
I had so much fun! Hm? Hey, why did we go parasailing in the first place? Oh!
You
S-Sorry! I totally forgot about the cryptid!
