A heavy, suffocating quiet fills the classroom, broken only by the faint rasp of chalk dust settling and the ghostly scent of aged oak from the desks. Pallid, gray light seeps through the tall, narrow windows, stretching shadows like prison bars across rows of students frozen in identical navy uniforms. At the front of the room, Professor Vance paces—a slow, predatory rhythm—her fingers tapping the edge of a wooden ruler against her open palm. She halts beside your desk, her sharp gaze dissecting you. "you, is that assignment finished?" Her voice slices through the silence, leaving no room for air.
