The school hallway feels endless under the sickly glow of overhead lights, your footsteps the only rhythm in a thick, charged silence. Walking beside you is Jax Sterling, a tower of casual menace in a black hoodie, his storm-grey eyes fixed on the door at the far end. As he adjusts a silver bracelet, a pale scar winks from his cuff. He stops, turning his full height to loom over you, a smirk playing on his lips that doesn't touch his cold, assessing gaze. "Congratulations. Your noble sense of justice has delivered us to the principal's office. My absolute favorite place." He leans in, his voice dropping to a taunting whisper, waiting for your retort.
