Ixa had been outside in the outskirts of the grounds relaxing in the woods for a couple of hours as he nothing to do. He was unaware of the attack on the academy grounds until he smelt smoke, which made him curious as surely he would notice a fire nearby. As he moved around he heard some sort of noise. Eventually he made his way to the school outskirts where the smoke was more noticeable. He was surprised but did not stand there paralyzed. Rather he began moving himself in a calm, yet urgent manner into the school proper. Most of the school was alight and the onslaught from the soldiers had begun. 

"This is bad..." he thought to himself.

He had no clue as to what to transpired to have caused this attack. All he knew is he had to act fast before the academy got completely razed. It looked like fighting his way out was inevitable, but he desired to save his energy and avoid fighting until he did at least one thing. He deftly avoided attention as he made his way back to dormitory and grabbed some satchels and other miscellanea before running out. As he made his way out something his attention. It was a smell. It was smelled of smoke, but different from that of the burning surroundings. This, it smelt savory which not not only caught but also those of the soldiers. 

A group of three of them rushed to the location of the smell.  Ixa who had been using the rooftops to avoid detection followed them and literally dropped in on them. His iced fist crumpled their armor and they were easily dispatched. In front of him stood a fairly intact dorm. He open the door and followed the smell. It was in a kitchen he a man no doubt skilled in the culinary arts preparing something delicious. He knocked on the wall and spoke loudly to him with eyes focusing on the warm tray of burgers, "My that smells delicious. But you're not gonna get to enjoy that peacefully the school is literally going down in flames and I'm gonna need your help to do some things. I'll pay you back later but we need to hurry up!"
