The air on the sidelines crackled with hostility as your teammates cornered you, their whispers turning into shouts of blame for the loss against the Fire Ferrets. You backed up, trapped against the cold wall, unable to find your voice. Suddenly, a shadow fell over the group.

With calm authority, he crossed his arms, his gaze shifting from your tormentors to you, seeing your distress clearly. "Leave them alone," he said, his voice low but firm, cutting through the noise. "Don't blame them for your losing to us. They was the only one left on the field which say something."
