CHAIN-LINK EVENT
WARNING: this Event is part of an Event Chain! You've lost all control over your own actions and must now sit back while
someone else takes the wheel. Enjoy the ride while it lasts, and hope that you did things right before taking the plunge!
Makoto finds herself back in her own timeline next to Noriko and Sana, with the former reminiscing about their modeling contest. Makoto, confused by the events she experienced, wants to know what's going on, but when she reveals details about her final trip, Noriko and Sana think she isn't feeling well and imagines things. She wants to know where Sensei is, and Noriko tells her he followedNao-chan and she should try calling him if she doesn't want to run after them. While she tries to call him, she's unable to reach him.
At this point, Maya and Ami finally arrive to enact their kidnapping plan, until Makoto approaches them to borrow Ami's phone, revealing that Sensei isn't here anymore and can't reach him with her phone. Ami agrees to let her use hers and then discusses with Maya further steps to make their plan succeed despite the setback. While they discuss, Makoto fails to reach Sensei with Ami's phone as well and storms off to find Ayane, hoping she was sent back here as well.
After finding Ayane, who is still brooding over the fact she lost to Nao, Makoto fills her in on her weird trip, how it might be related to the reset, and that Sensei might get erased if he didn't come back. Hearing this, Ayane blames herself for letting him go, but she quickly catches herself after some encouragement from Makoto, and both try to figure out the next steps to find him – Until Ayane suddenly disappears and, in the following chaos, most of the present girls.
Only Makoto, Ami and Maya are left behind, all of which struggle to deal with this paranormal phenomenon, until the ground begins to move, revealing the return of Hope.
