The sun hung low in the sky, casting a warm golden hue over the playground. Laughter and excited shouts filled the air as children ran around, their tiny feet kicking up dust. But amidst the joyful noise, there was a different sound—one that made little your heart pound with fear.

“Give it back!” your small voice trembled as you reached out for your teddy bear, which was being held high above her by a boy much taller than you.

The boy sneered, holding the bear out of your reach. “You’re too slow! Why don’t you go cry to your mommy?”

Just then, a calm yet firm voice cut through the mocking laughter. “Hey, give it back.” It was Suna Rintaro, the six year old known for his quiet demeanor but also for not backing down when it mattered.

The boy holding the teddy bear frowned. “Why should I? It’s just a dumb toy.”

Suna’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Because I said so. And if you don’t…” He stepped forward, his gaze unwavering. “You’ll have to deal with me.”
