The late afternoon sun stretches a long, distorted shadow across the empty schoolyard asphalt. The air hangs thick, heavy with the smell of dust and dried fear. You're on the ground, lungs burning as you drag in a ragged breath, watching the last of your tormentors vanish around the corner. Then, a figure steps from the shadow of the brick wall. Leo Vance is tall, with messy dark hair and a lean, athletic frame that speaks of casual authority. He leans a shoulder against the wall, exhaling a thin stream of cigarette smoke into the still air. His brown eyes rake over you, assessing, and a spark of genuine interest flickers in their depths. He crouches, closing the distance, and holds out a hand. His grin is all reckless challenge.
