Ashley “Ash” “Soot” Clade
“Well that’s disconcerting…” Ash mumbled to herself as Dawn explained her predicament and her apparent disappearance from all public records. Just how much pull did this place have to make something like that happen and have someone vanish from existence? Did she even exist anymore at this point? She hadn’t really had time to investigate what happened with her family and what the rules were around that sort of thing. Unlike Dawn and Jojo, she had people who would notice her gone. Well, she’d left a note saying she was leaving, but still, that was different. If she could go see them, she wanted to – Though explaining all this in some way was going to take a fair bit of work.
Not getting much longer to think on it, there was the oddest sensation as the temperature from her legs changed before moving up before finally the portal that Illusion had used passed over her head, leading to a more interesting transition of scenery as Ash whirled, looking briefly around for the garage before coming to realise that they’d moved location. A perplexing sensation, but at least it didn’t make her feel ill this time. Looking to the rest of the dweebs from the bus, they seemed a bit more shaken than before. Had something happened? Giving a small salute-wave, Ash began to take a few steps to wander from the group, boots crushing fallen leaves underfoot. So, it was a little like a traditional camp, seeing as they were out in the wilderness. Ah shoot, her bike didn’t get warped with her. Well, they’d probably be hiking around and shit, so it wasn’t like she’d get much chance to use it. Still, it was a comfort she’d be missing.
“So, this the place? Where we staying? And when do we start?” Ash asked to no one in particular before noticing Zadkiel in the corner of her eye, turning to face him fully and staring a moment before doing her best to act nonchalant. Some other demon thing? Maybe? He was certainly magical to some extent, judging by those… Wisps? Wings? Whatever they were coming from his back. Well, she’d have to start getting used to that stuff. Freaking out and making a big deal about every vampire, werewolf and monster was going to make adjusting difficult. After a moment more of waiting for an answer, she turned to the brainiac of the group, giving Rick a deliberate stare. He almost always seemed to have some smug answer about this sort of thing.
