The driver, none other than Rohan himself, tries to warn her that a prominent [[Eco-Terrorist|climate activist]] is hiding in her car, using her as transportation for a terrorist plot. The ensuing crash leaves Rohan nearly immobilized, forcing him to choose between the eco-terrorist's noble goal and the well-being of his [[Morioh|hometown]].

[[Rohan Kishibe|Rohan]] is working on ''[[Pink Dark Boy]]'' in his office as [[Bakin]] watches. [[Kyoka Izumi|Kyoka]] arrives and is impressed to see his {{W|Drip painting|drip painting}} style but points out that the way Rohan is doing it isn't improvised or random since he's precisely aiming the drops of ink. She offers Rohan café au lait and then pretends to spill some on his manuscript, before laughing that she's just kidding. However, she notices that Rohan is crying. Confused, Kyoka mentions that she thought the story he's working on has a happy ending. Rohan begins describing Episode 11. It's a story that tells of the time Rohan was invited to interview at the home of a "decent person" with a certain background. Although he usually draws manga with the intention of providing hope to his readers, there isn't a single positive thing in this story. He warns the readers to be prepared for this dreadful episode.
 
A woman having an affair realizes how late it is already and decides to leave the hotel. The person she's with offers to take her home but she refuses. As she runs to her car in the parking garage, she's worried about what she just did. When she opens the car door, it hits the door of the SUV next to her and causes a dent. She also notices her stockings are torn up but she doesn't have time to buy a new pair. Her name is revealed to be [[Mitsuki Murase]], age 37. Mitsuki starts panicking about how her husband will react, and fears he might already suspect something. She regrets going all the way to the next town and thinks her husband might check the GPS records. Taking a deep breath, she takes her wedding ring out of her bag and puts it back on her finger.
 
[[File:TSKR11Creature.png|thumb|250px|Mitsuki witnesses a spiked being]]
As she's driving back home, Mitsuki encounters a traffic jam. Thus, she drives off the main road and heads into the mountains. Suddenly, her phone rings. When she answers, her husband is relieved that she finally picked up. He exclaims everyone was trying to call her for over an hour. Their daughter [[Emma (Drip Painting Style)|Emma]] is crying because the kindergarten's closed and nobody is there to pick her up since Mitsuki has the car. Mitsuki lies that she lost track of time and got caught in traffic due to a roadblock. Her husband thinks that's suspicious because he's never seen any roadblock in their neighborhood before. Although it would take about 20 to 30 minutes for Mitsuki to get to Emma's kindergarten, she lies and says it'll take about 5 minutes.
 
Suddenly, Mitsuki notices a dark figure with several spikes on its back just outside her car by the passenger window. She swerves her car and stops to take a look outside but there's nothing there. Her husband keeps trying to talk to her but Mitsuki doesn't respond. He says he'll go pick up Emma himself without the car and then they can talk at the kindergarten. He then hears birds cawing and asks where Mitsuki is. Mitsuki lies again and says those weren't birds but just the noise of her slamming on the brakes. She hangs up, saying she'll be there soon. Wondering what was near her car, she notices a "Watch for Animals!" sign. At first she thinks it might have been a boar but realizes it looked nothing like one. She stops worrying when she notices there's no damage to the car and starts driving quickly to reach the kindergarten.
Line 43 ⟶ 44:
As soon as Rohan shouts, the man behind her places his hands around Mitsuki's face and snaps her neck. Both cars crash into the guardrail. Rohan manages to crawl out, bleeding from his head, nose, and mouth. He's on the phone with the police and asks why they aren't there yet. He informs them about the murder and that this guy is too much for him to handle alone; they'll need to block the roads and bring all the riot police that they can get in order to stop him. Looking at Mitsuki's upside down car, Rohan wonders why he got himself involved in this.
 
The man crawls out of Mitsuki's car and climbs on top of it, eerily noting Rohan's recent adoption of [[Bakin]]. He remarks that Rohan will probably be able to make 15 to 20 years' worth of happy memories with the dog, but that they will soon become painful to remember due to the effects of climate change. He cites a 2018 prediction from the {{W|IPCC}} about the Earth's average temperature rising towards a point of no return at an alarming rate. He uses this as evidence that Bakin won't be able to have the happy life his owner wishes for him.
 
[[File:TSKR11EcoManBackstory.png|250px|thumb|left|The terrorist lostexplains his familymotivations]]
The eco-terrorist continues his speech, going into details about his past. 12 years prior, he joined an environmental organization dedicated to reducing carbon dioxide emissions, but their leader was paid off by a big company that planned to invest in the deforestation of tropical rainforests. In spite of that, the man tried continuing his work but was arrested several times by security officials, had people trying to kill him, lost his job, and his family abandoned him. Now sick of everything, the man reveals his goal of blowing himself up at the nearby power plant. He is wearing 40kg40&nbsp;kg of {{W|ANFO}} explosives along with nails and screws, and also carrying hydrogen fuel tanks and liquid oxidizers under his coat and in his backpack. All of these are wired to switches strapped to both of his palms.
 
[[File:TSKR11RohanBurs.png|thumb|right|Rohan uses burs to stop the man's plan]]
Rohan retorts that the man needs therapy and wonders why he invited Rohan to his house since Rohan is just a manga artist and not a journalist. The eco-terrorist claims that TV reporters would distort the truth and spread fake news about what happened, but Rohan could depict the truth in his manga using what he's about to see now. He lured Rohan all the way to this specific spot to keep him safe, and he just happened to kill that woman because she was driving nearby. Hearing the police sirens approaching, the man starts making his move. Rohan cries for him to stop and go do his plan somewhere else since [[Morioh]] is his birth town. Rohan looks around and notices the nearby {{W|Bur|burs}} on the ground. He's thankful that Mitsuki's car is outdated and powered by gasoline, wondering if it's just a stroke of irony or the whim of the [[Gods of the Mountain|mountain godsGods]]. Summoning [[Heaven's Door]], Rohan writes on the burs to shrivel up until they're hollow, then suck up fumes from the exhaust pipe of Mitsuki's car, and finally stick to the eco-terrorist's clothes. After the burs do so, the man falls unconscious due to the carbon monoxide released from all of them.
 
Back in the present, Rohan asks Kyoka what she's doing. She had just warmed up pasta in the microwave and asks Rohan if he wants some. Rohan angrily points out that he has never permitted food in his workroom but Kyoka's tomato sauce dripped onto his manuscript and made two orange dots. After he yells at Kyoka to leave, she reveals to Bakin that she did it on purpose thinking it would cheer Rohan up since he can't draw while being all gloomy. Although she thinks that the story had a happy ending, Kyoka looks dejected as she leaves.

==Trivia==
*The first half of this chapter was originally published in the May 2022 issue of ''[[Ultra Jump]]'', alongside the [[CDDH Chapter 5|fifth chapter]] of ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak]]''.
*The one-shot seems to be somewhat inspired by the 2020 film ''{{W|Unhinged (2020 film)|Unhinged}}'', which tells the story of a woman who is terrorized by a seemingly mentally ill stranger following a road rage incident. Its Japanese title (アオラレ) is directly referenced by [[Mitsuki Murase|Mitsuki]] while she is being tailgated.
*[[Mitsuki Murase]] directly references the 2020 film ''{{W|Unhinged (2020 film)|Unhinged}}'' when she notices she is being tailgated, a film which also follows a woman being terrorized by a seemingly-deranged stranger following a road rage incident.
*The one-shot alsobears referencesheavy ansimilarity to the urban legend knownof asthe "{{W|Killerkiller in the backseat|The Killer in the Backseat}}",: whichboth involvesfollow a [[Mitsuki Murase|woman]] who is drivingfollowed and being followedassaulted by another vehicle whowhile flashes their high beamsdriving, tailgatesonly her, and sometimes even rams her vehicle. However, sheto realizesrealize too late that the [[Rohan Kishibe|driver]] was actuallyis trying to warn her that there wasof a [[Eco-Terrorist|man]] hiding in herthe back seat of her own car.
*[[Soft & Wet]]'s [[Statue Legend]] figure, [[Killer Queen]]'s [[Super Action Statue]] figure, and the [[Ichiban Kuji#JOJO'S ASSEMBLE|Ichiban Kuji JOJO'S ASSEMBLE]] line figures of [[Jonathan Joestar]] and [[Jotaro Kujo]] can be seen on Rohan's shelf. The [[Hot Summer Martha (Character)|Hot Summer Martha]] figure from [[TSKR Episode 10]] also makes an appearance.
