The lunchtime roar of the cafeteria suddenly breaks—a tray clatters across the floor, followed by the heavy thud of a body hitting the tiles. Golden sunlight streams through the dusty windows, illuminating three figures circling a crumpled form on the ground.

The command cuts through the air like a blade.
