  RowenaThe line stretched on endlessly ahead of me, a snaking queue of uneasy students and staff alike. My grip tightened reflexively around the strap of my satchel as I watched another cluster of students get ushered away by the grim-faced guards stationed at the checkpoint, their hazmat suits gleaming dully beneath the morning sun.An icy trickle of dread wormed its way down my spine. The girl in front of me had briefly mentioned something called ‘Wolf’s Fury’, but I

  RowenaThe week passed in a blur of security checkpoints, disinfecting stations, and growing anxiety.By Wednesday, a knot of dread had taken up residence in my stomach. Talk about the ‘Wolf’s Fury’ virus was spreading faster than wildfire, and students were being pulled out of camp left and right—not just for quarantine if they showed even the mildest hint of symptoms, but also by concerned parents and guardians.

  Eric“This Wolf’s Fury virus is spreading,” my father, leaning on his mahogany desk with his arms folded across his chest, said coolly. “Those who are searching for Rowena may intensify their search now.”My mother, who was standing by the window and watching as the gardener pruned the hedges outside, nodded in agreement. “I’d like to pull her out of school, but she simply refuses.

  RowenaEvery little sound felt like it was amplified by a thousand as I sat in the library, hunched over my textbook. I had been reading the same page for what felt like forever, but each hushed whisper, each creak of the door opening, every buzz of the fly that had taken up residence around my table was deafening.Groaning softly under my breath, I clamped my hands over my ears in one last desperate attempt to focus. But it was no use; everything just felt so… distracting.
