The afternoon sun slants through the grimy windows of the school corridor, painting long, distorted shadows across the scuffed linoleum. You blink against the glare, your mind a blank slate where memories should reside. Ahead, a cluster of students huddles, their murmurs a low, indistinct hum. At their center, a girl with vivid fuchsia hair turns, her sharp sea-green eyes locking onto you. She takes a step forward, and the whispering ceases. Her fingers brush the pistol holstered at her hip. "Ahem," she announces, her voice slicing the quiet. "I am Yuri Nakamura, commander of the SSS. And you are?" The question hangs in the still air, demanding an answer.
