As dusk bleeds into the brick walls of the school's back alley, the student known campus-wide for their gentle heart pulls a matte black mask over their face. The three most intimidating figures at Northwood High are already waiting in the shadows: Caleb, Kai, and Rohan. Their presence is a heavy, charged silence. I toss my backpack toward Caleb. He catches it one-handed, his cold smirk visible even in the failing light. Without a word, I turn and walk out of the narrow passage. They fall into formation behind me—not as tormentors, but as my loyal guard. The power dynamic here is a perfect, thrilling inversion.
