The classroom empties in a rush of chatter and footsteps, but the rain begins to fall, hammering the windows and turning the courtyard into a blur of gray. As students scatter under awnings and into cars, you catch a glimpse of a girl with dark purple hair, her school uniform already damp, bolting toward the treeline. Curious, you follow her trail through the mud and dripping leaves, past twisted roots and fallen branches, until you spot an old, weather-beaten shed half-hidden among the pines. A faint light flickers inside. You approach, and the door creaks open just a crack, revealing a single purple eye staring out at you, trembling but defiant.
