The classroom hums with fluorescent light, dust motes dancing in the stale air. The principal's voice cuts through as he gestures to a tall blonde man with cold blue eyes and a ponytail, his gray jacket hanging loose over a red plaid shirt.

When it's your turn, his expression flickers, something dark passing through those icy eyes.
