We Will See About That

That's it! You are going.

I walked out of fencing class and saw that my uncle Jason had come to take me home. I told him that if I go home things will get worse. I will have an episode and it won't be nice. He asked me to stay with him for a day. If it gets bad he will bring me back. I decided to give him a reason to bring me back here so I can figure out how to escape. Jason was waiting for me by his car. He gave me a sad smile and helped me get in his car. I had promised my friends that I will be back the day after tomorrow. They prayed that everything would go smoothly. I winked and got in the car. Jason drove me to his house instead of mom and dad's. It was a nice change of pace but mom will come and I will be dragged back to the nightmare that seemed to be neverending. Can't talk to anyone just be quiet and be the recipient of mom and dad's yelling. I had to pull an episode. I practiced a good one where I saw a monster who is made of trash come at me.
Mom came over and started about how I should go home. How she is lonely because she has no shopping buddy and she can't inject insulin into herself. How she has new juicy gossip that she is dying to share. I felt like the walls closing on me. I wanted to scream but opted to pretend to have an episode about a monster made of trash. Mom was so offended by my outburst that she decided that Jason should escort me back.
I gave back before dinner and my friends embraced me cherishing my arrival. Uncle smiled at them and asked them to take care of me. They told him not to worry they will take excellent care of me. We sat down to eat when I saw my old roomie was here but as a teacher. Even the others gave her the eye. They complained to the supervisor and he asked her how she went from junkie to teacher. This was a sensitive subject and finally she had to leave because she was ruining the integrity of the Academy.
We were to go back to our rooms where the doors looked like the ones in solitary confinement. At least we had the key to open or close them. We snuck out to the woods when I sensed that we had an intruder so I asked to turn around. We hid and I used telekinesis to move rocks and a man in an FBI standard suit walked into the clearing. He looked around to see if I was anywhere before he shouted, "Alice Stone I know you are here. Just come out and do yourself a favor." I waved my hand and made him think that I managed to get past him and was running away. When he left we snuck back in and slept.
The next morning we had a surprise inspection but it proved nothing because I was using telekinesis to levitate when we were in the woods. The supervisor yelled at the FBI for harassing the sanctity of the Academy and warned them to never set foot on the property. This infuriated them more that they demanded to see the security footage. Which showed that we never left the room. I snuck us out through the window which is covered with fog so you won't be able to see even if you try. They spend the next few minutes trying to convince the heads of the Academy to a lie detector test which only convinced them to remove the FBI from the Academy. They called the board of trustees and they got a court order that says that they must stay as far as the border of the nearest town. They are henceforth denied entry because so far they have hindered the work of experts. There was a tantrum that nearly had the trustees call the police to have the Feds removed. Dimitri came with popcorn and sprite. We sat by the stairs and laughed as the FBI got themselves into bigger trouble and was evicted. We remained hidden till they left begging and crying.
We partied in a part of the woods where no one has been able to go. We stopped by the library and found a book on cartography. A book about map making. We sat down decided to map the woods so we can enjoy ourselves without being harassed. The supervisor caught us and he was impressed with our new pursuit and made it part of our extra credit. We were allowed out as long as we don't make trouble. If we get in trouble then we must halt till we complete the community service. We happily agreed to the terms. I walked out of swimming class and decided that I need to check my secret sketchbook and found a drawing of a building of historical architecture that seems to call out to me. This was the one drawing that I couldn't get rid. I decided to scan the picture and tried to find out where it was. It was from Astoria from Oregan. I felt a pull that refused to go away. I decided that I need a distraction so I picked up a paper and a charcoal pencil. I closed my eyes and started to trace the woods outside but ended up drawing something else. It was the subterranean map out of the city. I even traced the path I must take so I will be safe. I realized that I will be running away soon. I had to start packing my belongings. I explained my drawing to my friends and they promised to help as much as they possibly can. Only Dimitri had a home to go to. The rest of us had a place that was the reason we were here to begin with. So we began planning how we will get out without the FBI finding out about us.
The Feds came the next morning to take me away because they can't barge in anytime they wanted. They wanted a controlled environment where they can prove to those skeptics that I am the Cassandra. My friends were concerned but I winked at them and walked with them. This made them apprehensive. The counselor lied to the FBI and said that I had taken my meds. They checked me from head to toe and asked me to get in the SUVs. I pretend to sleep and flit into my friends and asked them to meet me in the outskirts of the Academy at midnight.
