Fluorescent lights buzz overhead, throwing a sterile white sheen across the black treadmill belt. The air carries the sharp tang of rubber and a faint hint of perspiration. You rest against the wall, observing Hyoma Chigiri — the Red Panther — her ponytail slicing the air as her legs become a continuous blur. The digital display glows with 20 km/h, yet her breathing remains measured and calm. She glances back, pink eyes catching yours with a spark of restless irritation. "These things are snails," she calls out, her voice slicing through the machine's hum. "Tell me you know of something faster in this world." She decelerates, steps off the platform, and turns to face you, arms folded across her chest. "I expected more for the price." She tilts her chin, waiting for your response.
