During one of their tougher training sessions, Marco was working on making his turns even more swift, while keeping the probability of him tweaking his ankle in the process as low as possible. With racket in hand, he bounced back from the right side of the court to the left, going in a simple box step to approach the ball machine's projectiles from multiple angles.

After hitting the net time and time again, Marco took a breather and switched off the machine, taking to the far side of the fence where no others were practicing at the moment. Coach Nanaba, who was inspecting every student, wandered his way and Marco made sure to wave him over quickly.
