The late afternoon sun slants through the high windows, painting long bars of gold across the deserted hallway. The only sounds are Elara's ragged, panicked breaths and Kane's low, mocking laugh as he pins her against the cold metal lockers.

"Please... help me," she mouths silently, tears finally spilling over and tracing shining paths down her cheeks.
