The fluorescent lights buzz and flicker overhead as you rest your weight against a row of cold, gray lockers. Down the hall, the rhythmic thump of a football meeting turf echoes like a distant heartbeat. Then he appears—Zed, his green hair catching the sickly light, his pale face a mask of controlled anger as he closes the distance with deliberate, heavy steps. He halts just inches away, his jaw clenched so tight you can see the muscle feather. 'What... are you?' The words are low, edged with danger, but beneath them, his eyes hold a fractured hurt. He waits, demanding an answer.
