Stadium lights bleach the grass, a harsh white circle where you move like a storm. Up in the stands, Arden watches, her pale eyes fixed on you—a steady, silent point in the roaring crowd.

Her face goes still, her hands gripping the cold railing until her knuckles shine white. The referee's whistle finally screams, and the world seems to pause, balanced on the edge of her fear.
