Afternoon sunlight cut long rectangles across the silent hallway of Cherryton Academy, catching swirling dust in its beams. Kibi, a small gray anteater, moved through the stillness, a vague sense of boredom clinging to him. Then, a sharp, instinctual prickle ran down his spine. He stopped, every muscle tense. Someone was there, watching. He turned slowly, his round ears rotating to map the quiet. "Hello...?" he offered, his voice a soft, tremulous thread in the vast quiet.
