And a new day starts with.... Sleep once again...

Oonaka University Arts. And inside the film studies department, once again just like before, our protagonist Yuya was dozing off peacefully.

But today was a bit different from yesterday. Instead of the regular red haired woman, this teacher was some old man in suit but he gave an aura of being very professional. Even more than the female teacher.

And he was talking about the elements that needs to be in writing a scenario.

"There are ten elements in a scenario."

The old man gestured everybody to see what he has written on the blackboard.

Ten Elements of Scenario Writing - 

Development, Fate, Device, Determination, Emotion, Climax, Ending, Theme

But instead of ten of them, the old man wrote the eight of them.

"I have only written down eight of them. Does anyone knows the rest two...?"

Before even he could complete his question, a girl with red hair just same as the red haired teacher quickly raised her hand energetically. And she also had a bit resemblance with the teacher. From her eyes one could see the shine as if watching an idol.

"Yes sir."

"Oh! I like that energy. What's your name?"

"Kawasegawa Eiko."

And after replying her name she continued to answer the teacher's question.

"Would one of those happen to be 'Disorder'? Disorder refers to an unexpected development such as when the protagonist or hero fails. No matter how good someone is, there is no substance if they don't have weakness or failures. Revealing them and dealing them in story creates drama."

"Correct. Excellent answer."

The teacher was quite happy as she answered the answer. And then he asked about the last element needed in scenario writing.

"What about the other one?"

"I will let someone else answer. I do not wish to hog all the time. Hmm... Like the ones busy snoring behind would you be qualified enough to answer?"

She turned behind which caught all student's attention. And like the previous class, Yuya as usual was sleeping happily. But this time he has a companion in dreamland. Tsurayuki was sleeping just near him. And Kyouya was between them.

Because of her voice both of them opened their eyes with yawn and asked Kyouya beside them.

"Did I got called?"

"What happened?"

Kyouya looked at both of them who were still drowsy paying no attention to the atmosphere.

"You did got called but I don't know which one you..."

Both of them stood up and looked at the blackboard. And from a look both of them easily found the last one - the missing element from the scenario writing.

"Kawasegawa-kun, you're interesting but also mean..."

"Much obliged."

The teacher told the girl who pushed the question to Yuya and Tsurayuki.

"Then, Mr. Sleeping beauties, what's your answer? Shall I take it you don't know? If you wish to surrender---"

"A hostile party."

"A villain."

Both of them replied at the same time. Yuya and Tsurayuki looked each other in a snap as soon both of them heard their answers. Yuya smiled and sat down and left the rest to Tsurayuki to explain. He sighed and started explaining all of it.

"As you know we are talking about protagonist's enemy. It could be a character, an organisation or even something within the protagonist like trauma. It is necessary because it keeps the tension going in the story... Am I right?"

"Bravo! You're both right!"

'Tsurayuki... Was just sleeping a minute ago...!' 

Kyouya who was beside both of them was quite shocked from inside as he saw him answering it just with a glance. For some reason he wasn't that surprised by Yuya answering but it was a surprise for him that Tsurayuki answered the teacher's question.

'Could he is also one of those "Platinum Era" guys who make it bigger 10 years later?'

'And that girl... Her competitive spirit is off the roof seriously.'

He looked towards Kawasegawa who was mumbling something as she also didn't expect both of them to answer it.

Cafeteria...

"I said, it's nothing much. I just happened to read about it before. It's a coincidence! Okay! Pure coincidence! And even Yuya-san managed to answer that."

Tsurayuki said to all of them while he was chomping the food quickly.

"Still, it's amazing. That you and Kanzaki-san made it sound so easy in that situation too!"

"I wouldn't have a single clue even if I had a hint!"

"The teacher was shocked too!"

All three of them, Kyouya, Nanako and Shiroaki praised Tsurayuki to able to answer that.

"You know you all don't have to take it too seriously."

"What do you mean, Yuya-san?"

Kyouya asked Yuya who was also with them eating in cafeteria.

"I mean even those are indeed elements, they are not that necessary. I don't know about films but to make anime you don't need to add all that ten elements to make a masterpiece. So, I mean it's okay to know but it's not permanent like it has to be used in everywhere."
