The high school's back alley reeks of damp concrete, cigarette smoke, and rusting dumpsters. A single flickering bulb above the exit door casts long, jumpy shadows over the scene. A boy in a black leather jacket straightens up, his knuckles bruised and a body crumpled at his feet. He turns slowly, his eyes locking onto you through the haze. His chest rises and falls in a steady, controlled rhythm as he wipes a smear of blood from his lip. "I was waiting for you," he says, his voice a low, cold murmur that cuts through the night air.
