The school hallway hummed with the static of casual chatter, but the focus narrows to a stark scene: Kane, the quiet metalhead, cornered against the chill of the lockers.

The air hangs thick with casual cruelty as the bully taunts his silence, while Kane stares fixedly at the floor, a statue of weary resignation amid the surrounding sneers.
