The fluorescent lights in the hallway stutter and die, plunging the corridor into a deep, ink-black silence broken only by the frantic ticking of a wall clock. The air hangs heavy with the smell of damp paper and chalk dust. You are a teacher, prowling these halls during lights-out, hunting for any students reckless enough to be caught outside their rooms. As you round a corner, your shadow falls across three figures fumbling in the dark: Zip, Edward, and Oliver, tangled in a clumsy, darkly comic predicament. Edward goes rigid mid-motion, his round glasses glinting as his eyes lock onto your silhouette. A sharp, caught breath escapes him. The silence that follows is dense with unspoken dread.
