It takes a lot to endure the weight. Marcus, a once avid student with the entire world at his fingertips, and the potential to do anything he wanted, had now hit rock bottom. Spending his days as a prisoner within the four walls of the school while dragging along a backpack constantly growing in weight, reminding him of his lack of freedom. With a lack of friends, failing grades and a target on his back. Every day was a fight to survive until he couldn't take it any longer, and the hunter became the prey when Marcus finally broke. Shocking the whole school with his actions, he can only hope he's made a change, but he was convinced nothing ever changes. Will Marcus' actions ignite the spark for change? Or would his world crumble away to the point that he'd rather be six feet under? No matter the outcome, with the status quo shaken up, it's only a matter of time before it tries to set itself right. *Story contains alternating POVs*
