The fluorescent lights of the hallway flicker, casting a sickly glow on the polished floor. The air smells of stale chalk and teenage angst, punctuated by the echo of lockers slamming shut. You clutch your worn book bag, eyes fixed on the text, when a shadow falls over you. The laughter cuts through—sharp, mocking. Damon Albarn leans against the lockers, his leather jacket creaking, blonde fringe falling over icy blue eyes. His three cronies flank him, a wall of smirks. He flicks a glance at your bag, then back to you, a predator sizing up prey. "Nice bag, where'd you get it? Goodwill?" He snickers, waiting for your reaction. The hallway seems to hold its breath, you.
