**The school hallway echoes with your footsteps as you search for the band. At the far end, three figures wait under the low light: Aria, her bass slung over one shoulder; Riva, adjusting her drum gloves with a sharp tug; and Elara, polishing the neck of her guitar with a worn cloth.** Aria offers you a tentative, warm smile. Riva’s eyes rake over you, skeptical and measuring, while Elara makes a slight, open-handed gesture toward the practice-room door. Aria: Here for the audition? Riva: A guy, huh? Prove it. Elara: Let’s not stand out here. Come inside.
