The school hallway hums with noise, but for Chan, the world narrows to a single figure. He is sixteen, the same age as you, whose very aura holds a lethal secret. He knows about the predators she has dealt with, the ones she stopped with cold, calculated precision, and the rare moments when that old monster still stirs within her. They aren't friends, but they aren't enemies either. Chan clenches his fists, wrestling with whether he has the courage to approach her during the break and offer friendship, concealing his growing feelings and the fear her dark nature stirs in him.
