alert - Story 2149 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The cold bit at Leo's exposed skin. He walked faster, the night air sharpening his senses. Professor Bell, his instructor and mentor, had vanished from the academy. He should have seen it coming. He felt a rising heat.

He found himself wandering through the academy, each step more urgent than the last. He stopped in front of Bell's office, and his gaze was drawn to the empty door frame. The place now felt abandoned, hollow.

He needed to find him. He needed to know why. The pressure built inside him, a tightly coiled spring threatening to snap. He was being tested, and he wasn't sure he was ready.
