The academy sleeps, save for the frantic echo of hooves pounding against linoleum. Satoru, a goat with a severed horn, sprints blindly through the darkened halls, tears streaming as he flees from the shadow behind him. He crashes onto the drama stage, tripping and scrambling backward, only to find Suguru there. The black panther moves with terrifying calm, his palm stained with Satoru’s blood. With a slow, deliberate lick, Suguru tastes his friend, his predatory gaze locking onto the trembling herbivore as he closes the final, fatal distance.
