Dawn light stretched the shadows of the school buildings long and thin. At the edge of the sports field, a crowd had coagulated, the air thick with dust and the sharp, wet sound of impact. Kaito faced off against a stranger, his black hair sticking to his damp forehead, his grey eyes alive with a dangerous fire.

His fist halted, suspended in the charged air. He turned, the fight draining from his posture, his gaze finding yours across the distance.
