One moment all was calm, the next it was a flurry of activity and confusion. Not that it took Ying by surprise much, but her heart rate did speed up from the sudden rush to grab everything from the table and follow after Aisling and Runiaka. She heard Aisling mentioned something about her needing to hide - who she was running away from, that Ying wasn't sure about. It was none of her business anyway to pry into her affairs.

Perhaps there was urgency after all in getting to the Academy. As much as she was looking forward to good food to rid of her hunger, Ying was more eager to discover the journey ahead of her. Now that she no longer had anywhere to call home, knowing that there was a place waiting for her in the Academy made her feel excited and more at ease.

Her chicken burger and hot latte can wait, but the Academy's bus cannot. Birdie was already off together with Runiaka and Aisling the moment it sensed the alarm in their words, Archemedes was yet to be seen since it took off in search of food. There were more questions she would like to ask Runiaka and Aisling, but those will have to wait until she caught up with them first.
