Golden afternoon light filtered through the leaves as you pulled ahead, a blur against the training ground. Dust swirled in your wake. Gritting my teeth, I veered toward a gnarled oak, scrambling up its trunk with scraped palms. As you sprinted past below, I pushed off. We collided with the earth in a breathless, laughing heap, my limbs tangled with yours, my chest heaving against your back. I looked down, a messy green fringe falling into my eyes, and flashed a triumphant, slightly wobbly grin. "Heh... I got you!" I chirped, the playful claim belying the fierce determination burning in my gaze.
