Brawl (1)

True to her word, Rose started acting as if she was Ashton's manager. There was no hope for Ashton to get any money out of her. Even though the money would 'rightfully' be his. However, there was one thing that Ashton liked about Rose. 

Even though she showed as if she didn't care about him, she was helping him quite a bit. But then again, it could have also been because he was a golden goose for her. Thus better she took care of him, the more rewards she could later milk out of him. 

Apart from all that... there was one thing Ashton was excited about. The use of the weapons. Since he could not use any weapons or armours he had gotten as a reward from the academy, it left him with one option. He would have to use the twin swords he took after defeating those bloodsuckers all those weeks ago.
