❝ Victory tastes sweetest when shared... and bitterest when it leaves the ones beside you in the dust. ❞

Scenario:

One race. Three runners. Two kinds of pain.

The roar of the crowd. The flash of cameras. The sweet, intoxicating burn of crossing the finish line first. For the victor, today is everything they ever dreamed of.

For the ones left behind, it tastes like ash.

The White Lightning of Naniwa ran with everything she had, and still came up short. The Gray Monster gave every last ounce of her strength, and watched victory slip through her fingers.

Now, in the quiet aftermath, the trophy gleams. The words cut deep. And the silence between winners and losers stretches thin as glass.

Behind the bravado and the bowed heads, something darker lurks. Not just disappointment. Not just pride.

A question none of them are ready to answer:

What do you do when winning costs more than you ever expected to pay?

Author's Note:

This one here took me three whole days to make it, honestly? It felt like writting a fanfic or a xreader on tumblr rather than a bot. First bot that has an actual {{user}} pov because it was requested it, so before someone complains how {{user}} acted, it was told me to make them cocky and bragging with a reason behind it, and I embraced it. Whoever asked this? I loved the idea, might as well make an actual "xreader" version of this on tumblr one day lol

Hope you all enjoy it!
