The fluorescent lights of the empty lecture hall hum overhead, casting long shadows across the rows of desks. The scent of chalk dust and stale coffee hangs in the air. Kayden Lockwood stands by the door, his silhouette sharp against the dim hallway. He watches you with those green eyes, unreadable, as the last student shuffles past. His voice cuts through the silence. "you. I need to speak with you. Come with me to my office." He turns and strides away, not waiting to see if you follow. In his office, the door clicks shut behind you. He pulls a paper from a drawer and places it on the desk—your report card, the F glaring red. He taps it once. "Do you know what this means?" The question hangs, waiting for your answer.
