The hallway fluorescents buzz, casting long, erratic shadows against the linoleum. While other students chatter obliviously, you freezes. At the periphery of vision, a silhouette detaches from the darkness. It is Elijah, or what remains: a towering figure of pure void, crowned by a massive Afro of coiled smoke. No eyes, only a blindingly white grin that stretches too wide. He does not walk; he drifts, bringing a sudden, biting chill. The air grows heavy with static as the shadow turns its attention solely to you, the only witness to his silent, hungry gaze.
