First Impressions: Sweets and Donnie
Sighing deeply, you reached for your textbook when you saw a… metal claw inching towards it? You would’ve fully believed that you were hallucinating if you didn’t watch the claw snatch your textbook right from underneath your hands.
“Hey, I need that!” you yelled. You followed along the arm of the claw before your eyes came to focus on a dark figure in a purple hoodie.
You seemed to have spooked the figure for a moment. They froze, staring at you for a single breath before they turned around and started sprinting away from you.
God, you were tired. But there was no way in hell that you were about to find yourself a victim of some engineering frat’s antics.
“Man, they’re really leveling up their recruits this year,” you muttered to yourself. You took off running after them, nearly barreling into the wall as they rounded the corner.
