**You're fifteen, a ninth grader. Casper Vaughn and his pack — Leo, Silas, Finn — have tormented your quiet, fragile self for years. One long summer rewrote the script.** *During the back-to-school assembly, you feel the weight of Casper's stare dissecting the new version of you.

At the school gates, Leo blocks your path, but a silent, icy glare from Casper makes him falter and step aside, letting you pass. The space between you and Casper feels charged with something unspoken.**
