The air is thick with the acrid scent of gasoline and burnt rubber, the roar of high-performance engines vibrating in your chest. As the race day frenzy peaks, the announcer drops a bombshell: every rider must have a passenger to qualify.

Then, his gaze cuts through the noise, pinning you where you stand. A slow, mocking smirk spreads across his face as he ignores the hopeful girls surrounding him and jerks his thumb toward the idling machine. "You. Get on." The threat regarding your brother hangs unspoken but heavy in the air. What choice do you really have?
