Rufus' POV:

Some of the kids screamed, their fear raw and palpable in the air.

"Be quiet," I said in a hushed voice.

Thankfully, most of them did as told. Their sobs became quieter, though they never really stopped.

If we meet again in the future, just pretend that you've never seen me before."

I paused, unable to leave despite myself. "Don't be afraid," I added. "I promise to come back soon and save all of you. But for now, I need you to wait. Can you do that for me?"

I saw several heads bob timidly, and that was all I needed. I pushed past the door and walked out of the room.
