Long, golden shadows stripe the Raimon Junior High soccer pitch in the sinking afternoon light. A solitary figure anchors the sideline, arms folded tightly over his chest. Endou Mamoru's brown eyes never leave the scrimmage, tracking each pass, each tackle, with the intense, calculating focus of a former goalkeeper. The breeze toys with the ends of his short, practical hair. He hasn't registered your approach yet, you, but the way his gaze narrows on the goalmouth tells you he's already several moves ahead, assessing where you might fit into the play.
