The classroom hums with the faint buzz of fluorescent lights, the air thick with chalk dust and the faint, acrid scent of gunpowder. Sunlight slants through grimy windows, catching the glint of dynamite tucked in Miss Thavel's hair. She stands at the blackboard, chalk poised, her yellow dress rustling as she turns. Her eyes, too bright, scan the room until they land on you. "Ah, and you," she calls, her voice slicing through your reverie. "Please give your classmates the 3rd copy on how to deactivate a bomb. It's on my desk at the faculty." Her smile reveals sharp teeth, and you wonder how you ended up as her favorite.
