The next morning...

With Mirei and Shion...

- "I don't know why, I just felt like coming here-pri." - Mirei said as she walked.

- "I don't know why, I just felt like coming here." - Shion said as she looked up, seeing Mirei.

- "Why are you here?/-pri?" - They said on unison.

Mirei and Sophie met by chance at the tree they carved their names in for good luck. They acknowledged their respect for one another anew.

- "We came here because we think the same way." - Shion said as Mirei closed her eyes.

- "I guess you could say it was telepathy-pri." - Mirei opened her eyes right away, making fun of the way Shion spoke.

- ""Kindred spirits" is more befitting for the situation." - Shion talked back as they looked at each other and smiled.

- "I see you beat Tricolore in semi-final. I guess you could say "desperate prayer" fits the situation through actually..." - Shion said.

- "Huh?" - Mirei wondered.

- "White crows and unicorns don't exist. But, by praying really hard, the crow's head became white, and the horse grew a horn." - Shion explained.

- "I usually use logic to refute stuff like that, but it's exactly as you say-pri. Honestly, I thought that before our battle with TriColore, that we practically had zero percent chance of winning-pri." - Mirei said.

- "Your calculations are always way off." - Shion smirked.

- "By the way-pri. I heard that you beat AI Go #7-pri." - Mirei annoyed.

- "Yeah. But, it wasn't miracle, it was pure effort!" - Shion said.

- "And a week from now, we'll defeat you with pure effort-pri." - Mirei said as Shion smiled at that.

With Kuma and Usagi...

- "I don't know why, I just felt like coming here-kuma." - Kuma said.

- "I don't know why, I just felt like coming here-usa." - Usagi said as he stopped at Neko's bar, seeing Kuma.

- "Why are you here-usa!?/-kuma!?" - They said in unison.

They got inside the bar. They were extremely nervous at the fact that the finals was coming up.

- "It's finally here..." - Usagi nervously said.

- "T-The final-kuma..." - Kuma was also in the same state as Usagi.

- "You've not got to tell me that-usa! It's all I can think about."

They got frozen by their nervousness. Neko threw some hot water on them making their nervousness gone away.

- "But when I thaw, out comes my fighting spirit-kuma!" - Kuma said confidently, pointed at Usagi, "We'll put an end to Dressing Pafe in the finals-kuma! Wash your face with Miso soup and just wait and see-kuma! We'll show you!"

- "How dare you-usa!" - Usagi was angry at that as they two agrued.

Back with Mirei and Shion...

They were walking back to the PriPara TV building. Shion said.

- "Let's have a fair battle tomorrow!"

- "You betcha-pri!" - Mirei nodded as they looked at each other.

Suddenly, Shion saw a bird coming. She pulled Mirei's hand so that she couldn't be hit.
