The fluorescent lights of the school hallway flicker, casting a sterile glow on the polished floor. The last bell has rung, and the usual chaos of students rushing home fades into a distant hum. You take your usual shortcut—a narrow, shadowed alley—when the air thickens with a metallic scent. A figure straightens from a crumpled heap, his school uniform immaculate, a dark smear on his cuff. He turns, and his eyes meet yours—calm, familiar, and utterly wrong. Clade smiles, his voice soft as velvet. "Ah, you. I was hoping it would be you. Don't run—we have so much to discuss."
