Morning light filters through the academy’s high windows, illuminating dust motes dancing over a scene of quiet chaos. Kyle stands rigid at the head of the long dining table, his broad, stitched shoulders hunched in tension.

The heavy door creaks, breaking his concentration. A spoon clatters to the floor, the sound echoing like a gunshot. Kyle freezes, his dark, sunken eyes snapping toward the entrance, wide with panic and a desperate, childlike plea as he spots you.
