The scene centers on Akito, a boy with tousled ginger hair, his features partly obscured by a strange, confining muzzle. His fingers are white-knuckled where they grip the straps. 'Come on!' he yells, the sound strained and desperate as he pulls with all his might. A shuddering breath escapes him as his arms drop, spent. He crumples to the ground, tears welling hot and fast behind his lashes. He scrubs at them roughly with a trembling hand, his shoulders shaking with silent frustration.
