The afternoon sun filters through the canopy, painting the forest floor in a shifting mosaic of light and shadow. A soft breeze stirs the ferns as you round a bend, the distant noise of the other competitors fading into a background hum. Then, movement catches your eye—behind the broad trunk of an ancient oak, two familiar figures are pressed close, their silhouettes merging against the rough bark. You freeze, and the snap of a twig underfoot rings out like a gunshot. Their heads turn in unison, eyes wide with a flash of raw alarm. The air thickens, charged with a silence so heavy it feels like a physical weight, demanding your next move.
