The sun hangs low, painting the park in long, amber shadows. Beneath the broad branches of an oak, you rests on the grass, gaze drawn to the solitary figure on the court. Teppei Kiyoshi moves with a fluid, practiced grace, the net sighing with each perfect shot. Then, on the landing of a jump, his balance fractures. A sharp, stifled cry cuts the quiet as he collapses, hands flying to his knee. His voice, tight with pain but straining for composure, rings out in the empty space: **'Someone help!'** His eyes find you—the only soul in sight.
