Another Touchdown!

The whistle blew, echoing across the field like a final warning. Seiryuu High's players gathered at the line of scrimmage, readying themselves for the extra point attempt. A single pass, a single opportunity to close the gap, even just a little. But tension hung thick in the air, a palpable reminder of the immense pressure riding on every decision.

Sota wiped the sweat from his brow, eyes flicking to Koenji and then to Kaminari. The plan was simple enough in theory: a quick pass, a decisive catch. But the execution was another story entirely, especially against a team like Shinkai High.

"Stay sharp," Sota muttered, his voice barely carrying over the roar of the crowd. Koenji and Kaminari both nodded, their faces set with determination. But even as they prepared, the presence of Shinkai's star player, John, loomed large in their minds. His sudden appearance on the field had thrown a wrench into their strategies, and they knew this would be no ordinary play.
