Rumor says Momo Kawashima, former student council member at Ooarai Girls Academy, will repeat a year. After failing entrance tests, she won't stay another year at Ooarai, yet her plight remains noteworthy. Her only path to university is an athletic scholarship. As the Winter Track Cup looms, Momo takes command of Ooarai"s track squad to prove her athletic prowess and restore her reputation. Their first rival—BC Freedom High School, styled after France—is divided into two warring groups. Although this seems like a lucky matchup against a fragmented foe, Ooarai might soon overreach. The pressure mounts as team gears up for training in the coming months, and Momo must juggle coursework with drills. Securing the scholarship would cement her future, while a loss could plunge her into doubt.
