I t’s a message, a simple one. Yet it echoes like a scream in the quiet classroom. You’re next. Each move is so deliberate, almost a caress along the skin. It will seem chaotic to those who don’t know what to look for, an act of nonsensical gore. They are the ones who don’t understand the language of violence and blood and pain. They don’t see how each strike, each moment of prolonging the pain, adds to the song that can only be heard by those with the same darkness.

My hand curls around the shaft of one of the sharpened spears. It once hung on a stone wall of this classroom, but now it pierces the fae girl sprawled over the desktop, its tip embedded deep into the wood beneath her. I doubt I could yank it out unless I exerted some true strength, and it would be noisy, bringing people to the scene. Forty-nine weapons are buried into this single body, another deliberate choice. Like the strokes of an artist’s paintbrush, every part of this is intentional.
