Chapter 4

All students and faculty are safely evacuated from the false alarm. To your surprise, the girl with the spiky red hair strolls up to you, hands nonchalantly buried in her pockets.

She's strikingly muscular up close, and for once isn't wearing earbuds. For a moment she just looks at you intensely as if trying to determine something. When she finally speaks, her voice is rough and low in pitch.

Morgan

A little birdie told me you pulled the fire alarm. None of my business why you did it, but I can appreciate a good performance. You can call me Morgan. Invite me along for the ride next time, alright?

She disappears back into the crowd just as soon as she appeared, leaving you to stand there, slightly perplexed but also very intrigued.

Later that school year...

The entire first year of university has been full of new experiences you won't soon forget. With exams fast approaching, you know that you need to start preparing.

The day has arrived – just one more exam left until freedom. After this, the only thing left on the agenda is the university prom – an established tradition.

As a member of the party planning committee, you will have your hands full organizing the biggest event of the year, but you can't wait. It seems like the perfect conclusion.

Your mind is already drifting off to thoughts of relaxing summer days with scoops of ice cream and late nights gathered around the bonfire. Hopefully you get to spend time with the new friends you've made at university.

Having read just the necessary chapters for this exam, you feel sufficiently prepared and not too mentally exhausted from overworking yourself prior. Sitting down at an empty desk, you reach into your backpack to pull out the snack you brought.
