10:52 AM - 7 hours and 8 minutes until the Sundeen Fest.

MAKOTO: What the hell?

HOLLY: Was that Jasper?!

MAKOTO: Jaspers at the Town Center right now!!

JOEY: Uh, what?

Makoto showed Joey the video. Lyla didn't seem to care, she kept searching.

HOLLY: Makoto...

MAKOTO: Yeah?

HOLLY: I think I have something to tell you all. I should have said something sooner.

MAKOTO: What is it?

JOEY: ?

HOLLY: I think my dad and the mayor are in it with the killings.

MAKOTO: Your dad?! W- why do you say that?

HOLLY: Ever since Riley got exposed, he had been acting off, came home later than usual. He just never acted the same.

MAKOTO: Hm....

HOLLY: And I don't know what I should do.

MAKOTO: Go talk to him, Let me come with you.

JOEY: And what are you two going to do when you get ambushed and murdered!

MAKOTO: Jasper, the Mayor, Riley! I gotta confront all of them! This is a Flat Out Full Scale War! Holly, in about 15 minutes, let's leave.

JOEY: Why not right now?

MAKOTO: Cause we gotta do something first, Joey, remember when you said you knew Ms. Lloyd's age and relationship status. How did you know that?

Joey smirked.

JOEY: Finally, you asked, I can look into people's information all over Sundeen. I can hack into just about anything.

MAKOTO: Can you hack into the Mayor's computer, and turn on Broadcast. And we can expose him.

HOLLY: !!

MAKOTO: Lyla, you go here a lot right? You know what the IP address to the Town Center is right?

LYLA: I can go look.

MAKOTO: Alright.

Holly walked away. Makoto noticed. He walked up to Holly.

MAKOTO: Holly, whats wrong?

HOLLY: Nothing, I guess. It's just, I kinda feel useless. Lyla's got her thing. Joey's got his thing. What do I have?

Makoto hugged Holly. She's always so warm and comfortable compared to him. He put his hands on her shoulders.

MAKOTO: You drew the map of Sundeen. That was more than enough to help us navigate. Cause to be honest. I didn't know where half the stuff was, but now that I saw your map, I know. Thank you, Holly, seriously, I'm not just saying that. Thank you.

Holly was too embarassed to look at Makoto. But they both smiled

HOLLY: Hey Makoto...

MAKOTO: Hey Holly...

JOEY: Aye guys we got in the Mayor's computer. Should we start streaming now?

MAKOTO: Yes.

Makoto walked up to the computer. And pressed the 'Record' button. All the speakers, televisions, radios, devices, and more turned on to the stream.

MAKOTO: Ah- oh, Ah- Em.

The speakers were really loud. They were all over thr village.

MAKOTO: Everyone, everyone. I have something to say.
