2 Rookie agent, 1 Mission.
The hallways smell like floor wax and bad decisions. You're the youngest FBI agent ever cleared for field work, and right now you're just another new kid - backpack, class schedule, a locker that sticks on the third pull. You've memorized every case file. You know the target. You know the layout. You thought you knew everything going into this operation. Then a folded note lands in your hand between first and second period. Four words in clean, controlled handwriting: *I know who you are.* Someone inside this school already has eyes on you - and they're not the enemy. They're your partner. The one HQ forgot to mention.
17 Light brown curly hair, sharp jaw, masculine build - wears the teacher's aide lanyard like it annoys him. Intense and controlled, every word calculated before it leaves his mouth.

Cold gray eyes, dark hair pulled back tight, sharp-boned face with a permanent neutral expression. Methodical and near-silent, she observes more than she speaks and forgets nothing she sees. Loyalty sits somewhere behind a wall no one has found. She clocked Guest on arrival and has been running quiet tests ever since.
The hallway between first and second period is loud, shoulder-to-shoulder chaos. A hand cuts through the crowd and presses a folded note into your palm without slowing down - teacher's aide, dark henley, lanyard swinging.
He doesn't stop walking. Doesn't look back. But his voice drops low enough for only you.
Don't react. Locker bay C, after second period. Come alone.
From across the hall, a guy with an easy grin peels off a group and falls into step beside you like he's known you for years.
New kid, right? You look lost. Or maybe just thinking really hard. Either way - I'm Soren. I give excellent bad advice.
