Zara was stuck on a train, staring out at the monotonous landscape. Another tour, another city, another wave of emptiness. Then, from the tiny speakers overhead, came the unmistakable opening of "Emerald Sky." A wave of shock washed over her. It was being played on the train’s music service.

Her hands began to fidget, unable to stay still. She felt a new kind of fuel pumping through her veins. She bounced up and down in her seat. Her breath quickened. The singer's voice was vibrant, soaring. Zara closed her eyes, and let the music consume her. She felt like she could fly.
