When I was a kid, Back when I watched heroes on TV and stuff,


the hero said,








"What is your happiness?"





He absolutely hated ending without knowing what happiness was, he said.

But no one knows the answer to the meaning of happiness.


the voice with a yellow hoodie went through a path.


I thought, "Don't say scary stuff to kids who aren't even in grade school yet."



To become rich?






A suitcase with money is shown to a man with pink hair and glasses.



To become popular with girls?






A man is shown kissing two women at a bar.





To get into a good school?






A young boy is seen doing school work.





To be respected?



A man is seen opening a closet containing a skateboard with a heart on it.





Of course, I'm sure that for many people that's what happiness is.

the man in a yellow hoodie is seen doing kickflips while skating.



But none of them are my happiness.





I know...





What my happiness is!



The redhead smiles then does a high ollie, smiling in the air.

He then lands smoothly on the floor, but not without almost tripping, and continuing his path.

Going to a car, and sitting in the passenger seat.

"You're late Reki." The driver says as Reki gets in. "Sorry," Reki responds as he puts on his seatbelt.

The car starts driving to 'S'.

As they are driving they pass by a few skaters who are in the path.


"Jeez, that was dangerous," Oka says worryingly. "It's all hyped up, as usual, tonight," Reki says calmly whilst he is smiling.


then in the distance, a man with spiked shoes, orange hair, and clown-like face paint is standing, waiting for Reki.


"I thought you made a run for it." The muscular man in face paint says. "I'm gonna have you take back the fact that you dissed my skating, SHADOW!" Reki replies.


"It's a beef!"


"Shadow and Reki are at it!"


"Show some backbone!"








A siren is loudly blaring while blue light is shown.

People are moving out of the way for the two skaters while a staff member asks "Ready?"



"No problem here" one of them responds.


"None here, either." Another one says.


Shadow does a mocking neck slice gesture with his thumb while sticking his tongue out.



"Keep your calm, Reki," Oka says, in the crowd of people with Sketchy in hand. Sketchy makes a confident yelp in response.



The traffic light is counting down to 4 with each beep a red circle is shown.

beep

beep

beep

beep

DING!



and with the final light being filled green replaces all the red circles as a woman with a face tattoo waves a white flag with the 'S' symbol for the racers to begin.



With that, the two racers start with Shadow in the lead.


The two racers make curve turns whilst skating with Reki behind and people cheering on.


"Hey! You're never gonna catch up to me like that!" Shadow taunts.

He does a kickflip landing successfully and turning towards Reki.


"C'mon bring it, why don't ya." Shadow taunts once more.


"Wha..... Dammit! He's thinking nothing of me." Reki says with a pissed expression.

Reki gets more closer to Shadow trying his best to stay in balance.


'A little more...' Reki thinks to himself as he continues to get closer.


'Just a little more...' Reki thinks once again.


As he tries to get more closer both skaters make a turn using their gloved hands to help them.


Reki finally manages to get a bit past Shadow while skating.



"Psyche!" Shadow says once he notices.

"Eat this.." Shadow says revealing small green bombs that are between his fingers. "Haemanthus Bomb!"

with that, he throws the small bombs in front of cherries board shaking him up and making him lose balance. Making him crash into a bunch of other skaters, signaling a whistle to be blown.



With Shadow showing a smug face. the whistle announcing that Shadow won.


"The antihero of the "S" community!"

Oka hears this and puts a hand to his face saying "Oh man..."

......








A car is seen driving on an empty road with two passengers inside. One with Blue hair, and the other brown.


"What's wrong?" The woman with brown hair asked the blue-haired boy.

The boy turns to his mom and then looks away.


"Nothing."



"There really isn't any snow here." he points out.

The woman looks back to the boy and then the road.



"Was it really okay for you to come here?" she asks.



He doesn't respond for a bit, looking outside the window.



"It's fine," he responds.
