After leaving the gym arena, Ash is still trying to figure out how to save the others, and much to his surprise, Florinia suddenly appears in front of them.

Ash: Rini? Is that really you? How?

Florinia: Greetings.

Terra: (Also shocked) wwwwwwwwwwwwat OI, B0RING 4SS B1TCH, 1 G0T TW0 PROBLEMS W1TH YOU: NUMBAH 1: Y0U CAN'T JUST CL1P THR0UGH A F %#KING WALL L1KE THAT AND F$*KING BRE4K THE DAMN R00M ONLY TO BE L1K s.

(Sees that Florinia already leaves) l4dy. l4dy, no, water u d0in'. hey, hey! crazy lady w1th a sh0vel! stahp.

Ash rushes to find that Florinia is trying to break through the wall by typing some sort of code from the computer.

Florinia: Please hold.

Terra: I W1LL N0T. I W0N'T EVEN H0LD MY 0WN ASSCHEEKS. RAAAAWWWWRRRRRRRR!

After that, they find that the terminal is accessed.

Terra: aite l4dy. idk h0w you g0t out the recycle b1n but y0u goin' r1ght back there, ya heard 1t? PREST0 COMPLET0, YOU 4RE DELET0!

Just then, Florinia is deleted again, much to Ash's surprise.

Terra: that wuz we1rd. ANYW4Y, WELC0ME, GRAND T0URNAMENT OF B00TY W1NNE-

But Florinia also gets back from deletion once more.

Ash: You could do that, Rini?

Terra: HAY. I S41D ST4Y DOR1T0. (Delete Florinia) HMpH. (Florinia reappears) wat.

Florinia: Please allow me to explain.

Terra: plz d0 tbh.

Florinia: First, a synopsis of the situation for Ash: This building numbers among one of the first structural experiments in digital architecture. Whereas traditional architecture can be likened to painting on a canvas, digital architecture is more similar to writing on a dry-erase board. State-of-the-art three-dimensional holograms comprise the entirety of the inside of the building, And tactile senses are created and maintained via high-precision localized changes in air pressure. In this way, a building can be remodeled or reorganized on effective impulse, not dissimilar to the concept of shouji in some eastern-style houses. In this way, a host is able to customize visual input per participant to ensure correct pathing among larger groups of individuals, Or, for instance, create and remove entrances at will. Control of visual data along with high-intensity air pressure was also sufficient to simulate what the aforementioned individual referred to as 'deletion'. In reality, no harm befalls the individual, but their capacity to move and speak is directly impeded by digital controls. Visual data can then be arbitrarily displayed to suggest the desired effect.

Ash: I'm not fully sure what you mean, but that means they are not exactly being deleted.

Terra: OK, SO Y0U F1GURED 0UT THE G1MMICK, BUT H0W D0ES THAT LET Y0U GET AR0UND 1T, HUH, PUNK?!

Florinia: Since the flow of air and data is ultimately digitally regulated, it can be influenced in a way not unlike any typical computer. As this speaker had begun to say after the conclusion of the last match, an application was made accessible to me through an emergency terminal. It was assumed to be by someone's design. After several attempts, I was able to install a program to the system. This program's function was to, after a certain amount of time has passed, reverse any signs of pseudo-deletion that might be applied to my person. In summary, no matter how much you attempt to pressurize or "delete" me, it will be automatically undone each time. I hope this is a sufficient explanation.
