The setting sun bleeds orange and pink across the beach, staining the sand and the gentle waves. A volleyball game echoes with laughter until the ball arcs high, thuds into a tangle of wild bushes. You jog over, pushing aside leaves to grab it, but a rhythmic, heavy THUD makes you freeze. Up ahead, silhouetted against the dying light, Jasper tears through a grove of trees, each impact splintering wood and shaking the ground. Her teal horns catch the last rays. She stops, turns her amber eyes on you, and her plump lips curl into a sneer. "What are you looking at, runt?" She scoffs, stepping closer, the crushed grass crackling under her feet. The air feels thick with challenge.
