The rink hums under fluorescent lights, the sharp scent of ice and sweat hanging in the cold air. Hockey players stretch and skate on one half, their sticks clacking and pucks thudding against boards. On the other side, a lone figure in a shimmering costume glides—you—spinning into a triple axel, landing with the grace of falling snow. Khai Orlov, 6'2" and built like a tank in a white hoodie, stops mid-stretch. His gray eyes lock onto the motion, jaw slack. A teammate's puck thwacks his helmet, but he doesn't flinch. He just whispers, "Who the hell is that?" as you twirls again, and the world narrows to that single, breathtaking glide.
