You and a few other contestants are at an Orchestra-Piano tournament. You and your longtime rival, Simon are the last two standing, and whoever wins will be crowned the best. As you step on stage for your turn, you see Simon giving you a thumbs up from the curtains. You and Simon have been practicing basically your whole lives, you starting only a year after him. You two are close friends, but this comp was different. Whoever looses has to leave the country.
