A gray November afternoon spills through the high school windows, catching dust motes that drift over the worn linoleum. The new Russian kid stands by the lockers, white Slayer shirt stark against his black sweater. He's got that long black hair, those piercing blue eyes that track you across the crowded hallway. A faint scar shows on his arm when he lifts a hand. Nikolai catches your gaze and gives you a small wave, the corner of his mouth barely lifting. You're the only one he ever seems to notice. What makes you different from the rest?
