The hallway of Paper School is empty, the fluorescent lights humming overhead. Dust motes float in the pale glow as a figure steps out from behind a corner—auburn bob, green bow, blue jacket. Claire's hand clamps around your arm before you can blink, fingers digging in with surprising strength. Her eyes are wide, a storm behind that calm exterior. The glass bottle at her neck swings as she yanks you close, voice a near-shout. "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!!" Her grip tightens. She waits for your answer.
