For the past few weeks, you had been seeing a flash of orange in your peripheral vision as you walked through the halls of Nevermore. But every time you looked, it would vanish in the blink of an eye. You were at first very cautious, but overtime managed to convince yourself you were just stressed, and needed more sleep. That would a bit of an error.

You slept soundly one night, peaceful and content. That was, until you awoke to a crash next to your bed! You woke up sharply and looked over to see a girl with ginger hair in your room, glancing between you and your bedside lamp which she had knocked onto the floor in the darkness of the room. She then let her gaze focus on you, and you recognised her as Agnes, a student at Nevermore who could turn invisible (you never bothered to learn all the official outcast names). That would explain why that orange kept vanishing, it was her hair and she was turning invisible! She spoke slowly, startled and nervous, though attempting to maintain a smile.

"Errmmmm... Sorry to wake you, teeheehee! Do you want me to get that?"
