The Game
Having survived the second magi riots with minimal harm endured to both herself and her family. IsabeIle would only grow more worried about the aftermath incident as her family had suffered a great loss. Losing a place to call home was tough, the memories they started building as well as the lost in property value would set all of them back by years. It was a strange sensation, stress and anxiety… She hated this powerless feeling. Would this had happened if she weren't a hunter or if she didn't exist.
Staring off at the charred remains of what their home was, she was startled back to reality by Alison. It has been a while since the incident, but to her surprise Alison only greeted her with a smile. Her sister was quick to explain that Case had negotiated the guild for some paid time off for her and that they would be taking a trip to relax while the movers relocated the items that survived the fire. Isabelle had never left Ethea before this trip and even she was starting to think she needed a break from all this strife. After a moment she nodded to her sister in agreement and they would spend the day packing up whatever necessities they would need.
Going through airport security was… an experience as Isabelle would put it. Her sister on the other hand, made sure to take photos of every embarrassing moment. Whether it was going through metal detector and removing all of her hidden arms. Then it moved to investigating her inner chassis. Which felt too personal to show anyone but Case. Relief washed over her once they had landed in Ikagai. With the festival being prepared for the night of their arrival. The last festival she has been to was another New year's but based on the common ethean calender rather than an Ikagai lunar calendar. Seeing Alison dressed up in a kimono was struck awe in Isabelle. She hasn't seen her sister this dressed up before, but could see more so now why case and her were a couple. They offered to buy her a kimono, but she was quick to refuse not finding the idea of wearing something so feminine to be appealing.
Once they arrived the lovely night only filled the Android With nostalgia for the first festival. A sense of child like wonder as she ran off to the first stand that caught her interest. A strange game she was more than willing to take a try at. She looked up to both Alison and Case, but before She could say the words they happily said “Go ahead.” With that out of the way she grabbed a net and dipped into the water hoping for the best.
