The Mystery at Usukiland

Polly hated waiting in line, especially when it came to a sale. The later she showed up to Usukiland, the less likely it was that she’d find a Paranormal Time Detective Usuki Doll left.

Boys' Night Out

Night had fallen on Faerie City, Kreludor illuminating the shattered windows, burnt out lanterns, and rubble still piled up on the streets and curbs.

"The Mystery at Usukiland" by faeriequeenoffire
Polly hated waiting in line, especially when it came to a sale. The later she showed up to Usukiland, the less likely it was that she’d find a Paranormal Time Detective Usuki Doll left. The doll wasn’t a new release, but every week that she showed up during a stock refresh it had always sold out before she got to the store. She hoped that today would be different, but considering that the doll would be 15% off – and that she had slept through her three alarms – she didn’t have a lot of hope. Evie Dance, the Paranormal Time Detective (PTD for short), was TV’s hottest crime fighter. No matter where or when the crime happened – or will happen – she showed up to save the day. Polly wanted to be just like her – minus the time machine – and was even planning on becoming a police officer. Right now, though, she really wanted this specific Usuki Doll as a reminder to always be on the lookout and to always fight for what’s right. When Polly got to Usukiland, there wasn’t a single line outside and the door was propped open with a green hand truck. She knew the shopkeeper Usulla hated breezes, but thought nothing of it since it was a hot day today. Polly headed for the door, noticing a truck idling outside the store. A Mystery Island Skeith unloaded some unmarked boxes and took them to the loading dock beside the store. She hoped there were a few extra orders of the PTD Usuki Doll in there.
