Rui placed his little ball drone on the ground, standing up and taking a few steps back. His dad helped him make this one, so he really, really hoped it worked..!

The boy took the remote, holding it in his hands as he trembled from the sheer excitement. He flicked the on button, watching in awe as his drone whirred to life, the blades turning around and round like a helicopter as it slowly rose into the air.

With a pump of his fist, Rui cried out excitedly, "Yes!!!"

Using his remote, Rui controlled the drone and let it fly around the park, watching in excitement as it circled around the structures, other kids pointing it out and some even trying to touch it. Rui quickly maneuvered around that, though.

"I wonder how far I can go.."

Rui grinned to himself, looking closely at the camera on his remote as he let the drone fly off into the distance. The camera displayed the whereabouts of the drone, flying over some bushes and treetops and..

Hold on, what was that?

Rui paused, controlling the drone to fly a bit lower so he could take a closer look at what he spotted on the screen. It displayed a small figure, a boy.

A boy.. with a bleeding knee!

The inventor gasped. There was someone hurt here, he had to go help him!

Rui looked up from the screen, looking around to remember the direction that his drone had gone. It was somewhere..

There!

Rui sprinted in the direction, weaving through the bushes to find the boy that he had discovered through the drone. Eventually, he found him, looking up at the drone in confusion. His hand was on his knee, carefully avoiding the scratch, while his other was on the ground. "Hello?"

With a surprised squeak, the boy jolted upwards, whipping his head towards Rui. "Huh..?!"

Rui trotted over to the boy, lowering the drone and taking it into his hands. "That's my drone, sorry," He piped up, turning it off with his remote. "Are you okay?"

The boy looked up at Rui with wide eyes. "I-.. well, of course I'm fine..!" He exclaimed, slowly standing up. He struck a pose, before hissing in pain at the scratch on his knee. "Ow.."

"Do you want me to help?" Rui asked, setting his drone and remote on the ground. He duck into his pocket, taking out a small teal Band-Aid with Perry the Platypus on it. "I have a band aid, if you want it!"

The boy laughed loudly, shaking his head. His hair was pretty, Rui noticed. "No, I'm fine..! It's gonna take a lot more than that for a star like me to fall down!"

Rui blinked, tilting his head to the side. "A star?" He repeated curiously, "Is that what you are?"

"Well- not yet," The boy admitted, rubbing the back of his neck with a sheepish grin. "But I will be soon! One day, you're gonna see me on the stage, as Tsukasa Tenma, a world-famous star!"

"Is that your name?" Rui asked, looking down at Tsukasa's bleeding knee. He still couldn't help but be worried.

Tsukasa nodded, holding his hand out for him to shake. "Yup? About about you, Mr. Drone Guy?"

Rui let a smile spread onto his face, taking Tsukasa's hand and shaking it firmly. "Rui Kamishiro, nice to meet you!"

"Likewise, Rui!!"
