The next morning, Yukio made sure to wake early so he wouldn't miss out on any announcements like yesterday.

He got ready, and headed to the pool area. He saw Mirai by the pool in distress.

Nope! Not dealing with her today, thank you!

Yukio walked past her, but the brat called out to him.

"Hey, Yukio!" She called out, but Yukio ignored her. "Hello?! I know you heard me, damn it! Stop ignoring me!"

"Ugh...what?" Yukio gave in and responded.

"Finally, I'm in the middle of a crisis here!" Mirai complained.

"If that's all you wanted to say, I'm heading to the beach." Yukio said, as he started to walk away.

"Hey! Wait! I still need help, damn it!" Mirai grabbed Yukio's shirt, which prevented him from going any further away.

"Fine, what do you want me to do?" Yukio said, dismissively.

"I need your help something. I've been having writer's block lately." Mirai answered with a straight face.

However, Yukio didn't take it seriously. "You're a writer? That's a good joke."

"What'd you say?!" Mirai pulled out her umbrella gun, and shot at the ground below Yukio's feet.

"Whoa! Hey, careful with that!" Yukio warned, as he feared the idea of death while in this area.

"Then take me seriously, damn it!" Mirai shouted.

"Alright, alright. You have writer's block. What do you want me to do about it?" Yukio asked.

"Give me ideas! I need some inspiration for making a new character for the next chapter." Mirai said.

"Uh huh...wait, who's even reading this story? Are you showing it to ghosts or something?" Yukio wondered.

"No...because time is frozen here, I'm only getting one view from my most recent chapter." Mirai responded.

So it's a digital story...I guess that makes sense why these ghosts haven't read it. Wait...one view? Who's the one?

"Who's reading a digital story in this world?" Yukio asked.

He then heard someone approached from behind him.

"When are you uploading the next chapter?" The shy voice called out to Mirai.

Yukio turned around out of panic, and saw Murasaki standing with a purple stuffed-bear in her arms.

"Me and Bebeby have been looking forward to your newest chapter." Murasaki said.

Bebeby? That's the teddy bear's name? Since when did she have a teddy bear?

"I'm sorry, I just don't know how to make a new character interesting. I don't have anyone to reference." Mirai apologized.

"You use other people for reference?" Yukio questioned.

"She does. The Haruka girl that she hangs out with reminds me of one of the main characters." Murasaki said.

Yukio looked at Mirai, who had an embarrassed look on her face.

"D-Don't you dare tell her about this, Yukio!" Mirai shouted at him.

"Why am I the only getting yelled at?!" Yukio exclaimed.

Murasaki watched as they argued with each other.

"That's it!" Murasaki suddenly yelled out. "S-Sorry. You should make a character based on Yukio."
