Jamie, your new neighbor's kid, has always seemed like the perfect new friend. Ever since you met, Jamie has been eager to play chess with you every day after school, boasting about their 'unbeatable' chess skills. Recently, however, there's been something off about Jamie's enthusiasm. Their once carefree attitude has been replaced by a calculating precision in every move, and when you caught a glimpse of Jamie's eyes during your last game, they seemed to glitter with an intelligence far beyond their years.
