Love War and Becoming a Teacher

Saying Goodbye

Asuno's POV
"We." My father stood from where he lounged on our E Dorm  couch. "Are going back to France."
My stomach felt like I had swallowed a million rocks as dread settled into my very being. I had grown up in France, back before my mother divorced my father we had lived in a large mansion that had been past down to my father from his father. When my father got a job as a tutor for the original Kugeuka cram school. My mother had not been to happy about the down grade, but back then Teaching was my father's passion so we went anyway, three months later my mom left, I haven't heard from her since.
   "No." I glared. "I'm 19 you can't...." I began to argue but my father interrupted me.
"I can and I have, or do you not remember that form you signed freshmen year? Slow me to refresh your memory; if you ever became an E, I would have complete and total control of your life. Well look where we are." My father sneered and gestured to the E dorm.
"Asuno....You didn't." Nora shook her head in denial, pleading with her eyes that everything my father had just said was a lie. But it wasn't, I remember the day I signed away all my human rights just so I could prove to my father I was better than him. Oh how blind I had been, too caught up in my pride I failed to see why E Class began to succeed and by the time I woke up, it was to late.
"I'm sorry Nora." Was all I could say, what else could I do? I knew if I didn't go something awful would happen to everyone, Karma, and certainly YN had had enough hardship this year. They deserved to stop fighting. Glaring at my father I did the one thing I never thought I'd ever do...I surrendered. "Alright. I'll go, but you will have Professor Mandoza removed from this school and arrested for what he did to YN, and you will stop rigging tests for E Class." I demanded.
"What?" YN and Karma gasped looking at me like I had grown octopus arms.
"No way!" YN shook her head. "We can fight this..." Seeing her brain working so hard to find a way around this made me smile, I was glad I had let go of my selfishness last year, I was glad I had became an E. Being an E gave me the the confidence to defend my friends, pull all nighters, wake up late and care about people. Being and E allowed me to laugh, cry, argue and pull pranks. Being an E let me be me, and even though it was only for a short time...it was all worth it.
"YN." I smiled and shook my head. "You deserve not to have to fight any more. All of you do." I shrugged and smiled at Karma, Nora and YN. "If that means I have to leave to make that happen then so be it."
"Deal." My father growled braking up our goodbyes. "Asuno get in the car."
"Fine." I nodded turning and smiling at my classmates for the last time, then got I got into the car. I wouldn't look at my father as we drove to the airport. No matter what happened, I would never regret my time I spent as an E. Through them I had done things I never thought I would be doing. YN taught me how to be concerned for the people I care about, Karma taught me how to have faith when everything was lost and Nora taught me that it was okay to argue. No, I would never regret my time as an E, I would only regret the days I spent thinking I was better than them, because I wasn't. No matter what, I vowed to remember that.

Karma's POV
What the hell! Just who does that guy think he his? I stared after the car in a daze, just when we thought we were in the clear for at least a week, but no, E Class losers don't get the luxury of taking a break. What Asuno had said 'that we deserve to not have to fight anymore' was true. I was tired of fighting, but that doesn't mean that I was going to let the Principle get away with this. "Nora." I sighed. "Do you have a pass port?" I asked.
    "Ya, why..." Nora asked not looking away from the road where Asuno had disappeared.
    "Because it looks like we are spending Christmas break in France." I rubbed my temples and as we walked into our dorm. One day YN and I would have a normal Christmas that didn't involve traveling to a different county.
    I stole a glance at YN and she looked so upset, she looked at the ground deep in thought. "I want to be done." She sighed taking my hand. I knew what she meant, she wanted to be done fighting, she wanted to feel safe at school, she wanted to be equal.
    "I know....me too." I wrapped her in my arms and kissed her gently on the head. "This is the last time something like this is going to happen." I promised. "If one more thing happens, YN I think you should transfer."
    "What are you talking about?" YN asked looking up at me.
    "I applied to this school because I needed to see what I'd be up against as a teacher, but YN...you have been through so much this year. I just want to make sure you are safe." I sighed. It was my idea to to come to this school together. It was my fault YN was attacked by her teacher. It was my fault she had to hurt herself before someone helped her, when I should had noticed right away. 
     "And what about you?" YN narrowed her dark eyes. "I'm not going to be that girlfriend that sits around worrying about her boyfriend all the time. Yes this year has been a lot, but we are in this together." She gripped my arms and stared me straight in my eyes, determined to make me understand.
    In that moment I knew, there would be no arguing with her, so I just intwined my hands with hers, until we got to our dorms and went our separate ways.
                                                                           ~~~
Once we collected our passports and packed for Christmas break we came out of our rooms wearing our old, grey assassination classroom camouflage.
    "AWWWWWWWWWWW!" Wined Nora walking down the hall with a giant suitcase. "I want to look bad ass too!"
    YN chuckled and handed Nora the same camouflage we had. "Lucky you, I had an extra."
"Alright. Here is the plan." I began, this wasn't going to be easy from what Asuno had told me his home in France was like the US White House. There were guards stationed at the wings, on the roof and at the gates, inside there were video cameras everywhere except for in the master bedroom. So, Nora, would have to detract the guards at the gate and YN and I would enter through the master bedroom window then we'd work our way around the house until we found Asuno, then we'd have to figure out how we were going to get out of the house....which we'd have to figure out later.
