"If he found out, we're talking about whole word annihilation," Ashley nodded in understanding. With his Davenport temper, it made sense that he would get that angry. Now the question is would it be worth skipping, with the risk of death as a form of punishment. "But, truth be told, I don't think he'll really notice... He's infatuated with Erieda," Ashley still could not understand why he was willing to throw away everything for her. "Besides, what's the worst that could happen? So he'll miss out on a day of teenage gossip, big deal." Scavenger did have a point. It was the first day of college. And most likely nothing interesting would happen. Ashley was less concerned with the gossip and more interested in who Erieda’s children interacted with. That was more beneficial than who is throwing a party and when.
Her gaze moved from the pink haired girl to the students strolling into the classroom. Ashley leaned farther back into her chair, her face completely unamused. It was obvious that Ashley was antisocial. It is mostly due to her lack of trust for anyone. Her desire to leave was stronger now that the classroom was filling up. At this point she did not care about getting caught. If need be she would blatantly disregard his orders and let him get upset.
"If you take off, I'm coming with you... You're not about to get on my case about attending classes and then leave me to do this shit on my own. I can cover for us if we do get caught.” Ashley looked over at Scavenger as if that was a given. The dark skinned girl did not have any plans to leave the only person she could tolerate here in this god forsaken building. Ashley may want to be alone, but she was not completely heartless. ”What did you have in mind, anyway? If you wanna risk getting in trouble, surely you have something in mind?" Ashley had a really horrible plan and a logical one. Her irrational plan involved burning the entire building to the ground. No building. No school. But that would send a red flag to Alex. He would have the building rebuilt immediately and ship Ashley off to the dragon realm to be dealt with as the elders see fit.
The rational plan involved all of the crap she actually read about some of the classes. Ashley did not pay much attention to details, but she did get a basic idea of a lot of her classes. Like the names and the attendance policy. ”None of our classes check or report attendance. If we miss days then the assignments are online.” She said. But Ashley never planned on turning in an assignment, so there was no need to worry about that. ”So after this class, we can just leave and no one would care.” Ashley finished, checking the clock on her phone. The class hasn’t even started yet and she already feels like she has been here too long. ”Actually we could leave now and no one would noticed or care.” She added with a shrug.
