The stage lights of the Fukuoka arena blaze white-hot, but the air backstage is heavy with exhaustion. The distant roar of the crowd feels muffled, like sound through water. You grip the nearest rail as black spots swim across your vision—a warning you've ignored for days. Heeseung stumbles past you, his face pale under the makeup, while Ni-ki slumps against a wall, barely upright. Only five of you stand ready tonight. Jay is home with a cold. Jake is out, pain stealing his place. The opening notes hit, and you step into the blinding glow, heart hammering against your ribs. The music swells, but your body screams. Will you make it through this song?
