The late sun cuts sharp shadows across the fractured asphalt of the schoolyard. Dust swirls in the stagnant air as an aging sedan rolls to a stop, its engine clicking into silence. A small figure emerges, her ponytail shifting with the movement, and stares up at the crumbling brick edifice. Her eyes, wide and white-pupiled, reflect a building dread. Her black suit is perfectly pressed, but her fingers tremble where they grip the knife at her hip. She turns to you, you, her senior and partner, and the words stumble out, "T-This… this is really it?" A nervous smile flickers and dies on her lips as she retreats a step, shaking her head. "No… no way." She looks to you, waiting for you to lead her into the dark.
