"Sorry, I just got lost on my jog." Ken replied apologetically.

"Right… Well, go and join in on the drills. We're up against Elite Squad this game, our hardest match up of the group stage." He said, waving him off.

"Yes sir." Ken replied back, jogging onto the field.

Coach Wyatt let out a sigh, stopping Steve on his way past. "Next time, don't let him go off by himself alright? I want you to never let him out of your sight."
