Middle school baseball, Nationals.
For Naoki, life became meaningless the day her twin brother died. She became a shell of her former self. Living but not truly alive.
Chasing the connection she will never have and trying to find the self she had lost.
A journey to recovery.
A play.

But in its place, we'll create something new.

The sky is blue and the heat of the sun isn't as scorching as Naoki had thought. The wind feels cool too, and the way it blows wouldn't hinder her here.
Today is a good day.
Naoki gave one last longing look at the wide expanse above her. If only she's not short in time she would have lost herself to its beauty, unfortunately, at this moment she cannot dally.
This next move will determine their fate.
Naoki's eyes connected with his. He who is waiting on the diamond with a smirk and a sign.
"Let's finish this!"
Naoki smiled, loosening her shoulders and her grip on the ball.
Every person who had helped them, who had helped her flashes before her eyes.
For you.
Whoosh..
Pack!
"Strike! Batter Out!"
"Game set!"
