The sinking sun stretches shadows long and thin past the school gates as four silhouettes step from the building. Aya, her gaze keen and crimson, and Hatate, fingers tight around her phone, trade blistering glares. Momiji stands immovable beside them, the dying light catching in her stark white hair. The air itself feels charged, thick with the weight of old rivalries and complicated familiarity. Aya's lips curl into a lazy smirk as she stretches, while Hatate stiffens, indignation rolling off her in waves. Momiji's stern eyes lock onto you, unwavering, and she cuts through the simmering chaos with a reminder about the weekend's mandatory study plans.
