7:19 PM

Makoto was shocked when he held his phone right infront of his eyes. He had completely forgot about Jasper. Makoto answeres the call. No one said anything at first, but then. On the end of Jasper's side, there was a static noise.

MAKOTO: Jasper,

JASPER: Sss... sss... whyyy???

MAKOTO: .... why what?

JASPER: .... You didn't do IT.

MAKOTO: "IT"? what is "IT"?

Jasper hung up. Makoto was confused. He put his phone down and laid back to bed for a few minutes.

MAKOTO: What is even happening anymore?

Makoto called Jasper back. He wanted answers. Jasper declined the call. Makoto was getting calls back and back and they were all incomplete. Then, he realized. Everyone was stressed as hell. He turned off his notifications and took a nap.

Meanwhile, Murphy and Riley were in Murphy's room in the Town Center. Murphy was sitting in a chair and Riley was standing beside him.

RILEY: What should I do though? My name is known to the public, my son knows who I am. No matter where I go. I'm not safe.

MURPHY: We'll figure it out from here. In my personal opinion. You messed up at the Cemetery. Why the hell were you guys walking at the Front Gate, where everyone was?

RILEY: Cause of those damn kids, Tyrone, Jacob, and Rosie. Althought Tyrone wasn't there at the time.

Murphy sighed and leaned back in his chair.

MURPHY: The kids sold you. Let's kill them.

Riley gasped.

RILEY: If we see them again tomorrow. Sure.

Murphy stared out the window right infront of him, there was the bell. He remembers Makoto ringing it.

MURPHY: Riley, Yoshi's dad, Kishi Masami is back.

RILEY: .......: Who is that?

MURPHY: My childhood enemy. It took be 15 years to realize that he's been lurking in the shadows this whole time. He probably has a whole army and they will rebel.

RILEY: How do you know this?

MURPHY: Because yesterday, when you were at the cemetery, I noticed an odd piece of stone in the border. I pressed on it. The stone opened up and it turned out to be a door. Then I saw IT, the Outside World.

RILEY: The Outside World...!, not even I could fathom what is out there. Did you look out and see what was out there?

MURPHY: Of course not. But during the Sundeen Fest tomorrow. I'll gather all the forces and we'll open it.

RILEY: Tomorrow is going to be a war, isn't it.

MURPHY: Yes.

Hours later, Makoto woke up. He looked at his phone, and saw a missed call from his father. Which was weird, cause he didn't even have his father's contact. At least that's what he thought.

Makoto called Kishi. After a few seconds, Kishi answered.

MAKOTO: K-Kishi?

KISHI: Makoto, listen. After tomorrow, Sundeen will turn upside down. It won't be the same.

MAKOTO: Dad? What are you going to do?

KISHI: We will commence a war tomorrow. Whether you like it or not. If you haven't man up already, you're gonna have to because, the Mayor, the Police, the Killer. This is all ending.

MAKOTO: .....

KISHI: You can join me if you want. But if you wish not to. Then be my guest.

Kishi hung up the phone. Makoto was left there, silent. A little while later. Tsuga opened the door to see Makoto asleep on his bed.

Tomorrow. Is. The End.
