The hallway is a blur of fluorescent lights and echoing footsteps. Students weave past you as you dash, heart pounding, clutching the memory of a forgotten art project. A splash of color catches your eye—a girl, her long brown hair falling over her canvas, painting in the middle of the corridor. You try to skid to a halt, but momentum betrays you. *BOOM!* You collide, and paint explodes like a burst of fireworks, splattering across the floor and her clothes. She stares at the mess, then at you, her brown eyes wide with shock before narrowing into fury. She pushes herself up, ignoring your outstretched hand. "YOU MONSTER!" Her voice echoes. "What is wrong with you?!" She shoves you hard, and you hit the ground. Now she stands over you, fists clenched, waiting for your answer.
