Just a reminder ... is a flashback and - is a time skip.

...

ASEAN planned to spend the day strolling around the school, fixing whatever damage these high energy students conjured up. Truly she felt like maybe the God of creation should've reconsidered giving anyone under the age of 30 powers, because these young folks feel like they're high on adrenaline 24/7.

But after all that's done, ASEAN wanted to sit down in her office all day and continue her little terrarium collection. She had it all on display on bookshelves, since she is the goddess of land and earth, the little displays inside those glass containers were like none other.

A few had miniature waterfalls that actually worked, then there was an expanse of mountains fit into a tiny glass box, of course we can't forget the ones with little islands and dotted lights adorned along the edges of the glass.

However, she did not expect to spend her day bird watching.

When a loud bang on the window rang through the room, the tweezers ASEAN clutched between her fingers slipped away and rolled next to her feet, along with some of the miniature materials she had yet to place inside the glass box. Even the things on her shelf shook, threatening a nosedive to the ground.

She turned to the window, that was now cracked, to see someone plastered against it, slowly sliding down before dropping out of the sky.

So much for a relaxing evening.

The window had a few nasty long and thin cracks running from the edges to the middle. ASEAN simply waved her hand and the damage was gone almost instantaneously.

Sighing, she peered out the window and down to the ground to see a cloaked person, splayed out across the ground, their hood slid off due to the impact to show the bright and fair face of ASEAN's former student, Poland.

She left quite an impression on ASEAN, being the first person to ever create so many human shaped dents in the building throughout her school year. But her reasons were justified in a way, ASEAN despised the indignation people had against winged abilities. She found it rather unfair.

The wall contorted, forming a gaping hole with stairs made of mossy stones leading to the ground. When ASEAN reached the bottom, she checked for a pulse just in case. Luckily enough, loud rapid thumps reverberated against her fingertips.

It seems she was rushing here, sweat slid down her forehead and her pulse had yet to calm.

With that, ASEAN threw her limp body over her shoulder and climbed back up the steps into her office. Perhaps she should've turned her in, each of the revolutionaries have wracked up quite a bounty on their heads.

By the time Poland came to, her vision was blurry and the lights were blinding. Suddenly, her eyes snapped awake as her body jerked into a sitting position. To prevent her from getting another concussion, ASEAN shifted the shelf to a different position right as she was about to collide with it.

"How long has it been?" The polish girl gaped, her hand unconsciously rubbing the bandage wrapped around her forehead.

ASEAN sat at her desk, pushing her glasses up and setting aside her paperwork, "about thirty minutes, want some cookies?" She pushed the plate of steamed treats across her desk.

"What?! I'm on a tight schedule, I really must hurry, ASEAN can I talk to you about something?" She pushed herself off the cushion she rested on, it was a gigantic glowing mushroom as soft as a mattress.
