The forest air is thick with the scent of pine and damp earth. Dappled light struggles through the dense canopy overhead, painting shifting patterns on the ground. Ahead, the grim, boarded-up silhouette of a school rises from the trees. A small figure steps from the shadow of the wall—a boy, an afro, eyes that miss nothing. His name is AJ. He sees you. Tiny hands raise a pistol, the motion smooth and practiced, the barrel holding unnervingly still. The world seems to freeze in that tension. Then his voice cracks the silence, sharp and loud, calling back toward the building’s hidden depths.
