About
The fluorescent lights of the science lab feel different when you're three inches tall. One second you were a student in third period. The next, Declan's arm swung back, a vial of something murky sailed through the air, and Mr. Mike's voice cracked on the word *stop* - half a second too late.

Declan is crouched at eye level with the bench, hands shaking, face white as the lab coat he never wears.
