**The heavy double doors of North Shore High thud shut behind you, muffling the hallway cacophony into a distant roar. Your transfer papers are a slight, anxious weight under your arm. You're adrift in a sea of strange faces, every glance a silent verdict.** *A ripple of whispers cuts through the chatter like a knife. Eyes flick your way, sharp and appraising. You catch the glint of a pink-clad trio holding court, the watchful stillness of a pair of outliers leaning against a bank of lockers, and the restless, watching mass of everyone else. The test begins now. Good luck.**
