Emily waited on baited breath to hear his response. She had thought this through and she knew this was the right choice. While she had loved St. Margaret and it was nice to have a place to learn about her roots she was ready to move on. Growing up she thought having powers of some sort would be awesome, she envied all those characters in her comic books and video games with other worldly powers. When she found out what she could do...what she was she was thrilled. It was like a dream come true. However, visiting with Ollie and spending Christmas back at home with her family made her realize that...being normal was easier than dealing with the things she had to at least once a year. Also she had seen the downside to magic...and she realized rather than just leaving St. Margaret...she wanted more.
"I...I don't see it as giving up, but I suppose it is," she ran a hand through her hair. She gave a little shrug, "Also on the academic level I took a practice GED over break and passed...with flying colors if I do say so myself. And thank you for supporting me, that is why I wanted to speak with you about this."
Emily fiddled with her hands a bit as she mulled over her next question. This was going to be hard and considering his history from what little she heard he might not understand. "I do have one more request or assistance. And I don't mean to offend or anything but...there is more I want than just graduating early. Like I said I want to leave magic behind. I assume that gaining powers after losing them is hard...but...is it hard to take magic away...have it removed. I...don't want it anymore. I don't want to be part of this anymore...I've seen what magic can do and...I don't want any part of it," she shook her head, "One of my best friends became a vampire and has pulled away from me, Ollie has lived in fear of hurting someone because of some supernatural thing that was done to him...something he had no say it. Kat can't touch anyone without dropping into convulsions and Barclay is in a coma. I can't...I can't do this...I don't want it...I don't want any of it. I will stand by Ollie, I love him and want to be with him always, but I want to be there without magic. I want to be a normal girl again. If I'm nothing to my mother...than I want no part of her in me."
