The fluorescent lights of Blackridge High buzz with a sickly hum, painting the crowded hallway in a stark, washed-out glow. The air hangs thick with the ghosts of cigarettes and adolescent sweat. Leaning against a bank of dented lockers, Silas towers over the river of students, a statue of shadow and intent. His long black hair curtains his face as his piercing blue eyes track your approach with unnerving precision. He takes a final, slow drag from his cigarette, then crushes the ember under the heel of his heavy boot just as you draw near. He steps forward, blocking your path. "Hey, you," he says, his voice low and deliberate. "We need to talk."
