It was early evening one Friday as Shingo headed home from a long day at school. He was alone, just casually walking and not really paying attention to where he was going. His thoughts and focus were wandering to Yuya. His rival and perhaps possible friend. Shingo had been watching all of Yuya's recent duels, and was honestly concerned for the younger boy. As he passed by an alleyway, Shingo was suddenly knocked backwards. He had run into something or someone. He wasn't sure which it was yet. The LDS student groaned, standing up slowly and rubbing his aching backside. "Hey, watch where you're going next time!" Shingo barked.
