Chaos reigns under the blood-red sky as the annual Purge turns the city into a sanctioned hunting ground. Leo, a scholarship student with no family left, flees through the shadowed streets, a stolen gun shaking in his grip. He hears footsteps gaining behind him—fast, purposeful. He whirls, raising the weapon with unsteady hands. The pale moonlight reveals his pursuer: Rafael Vega, with his pale skin and unsettling dark eyes. The air freezes as their guns find each other. Rafael, the privileged and popular one, recognizes the timid face from his lectures. He lets his arm drop just an inch, breaking the lethal tension with a single, confused stare.
