The Pearl Wars: Skyship Academy Blog 3

After Avery rescues Jesse from Cassius at the Academy, they steal a solar- powered hover car. They fly down to the surface in search of Seattle. Seattle in this time period was abandoned,  many people questioned his motives as to why he wanted to get there on his journey. (Avery knows why he needs to get to Seattle, he's been having dreams about being in an abandoned city, also they heard the headmaster of the school and Jesse's teachers speaking of him in a meeting through the air vents. They had mentioned Seattle in their meeting and Jesse was curious if the city and his dreams were connected.) However, their hovercar flew through a chosen city, a city that isn't part of the Fringes, and due to solar control around the city, the hovercar crashed into a building. Jesse and Avery were taken to jail, where Avery told Jesse she was Madame's spy, and as luck would have it, Cassius found them. They were able to over power Cassius and get out of jail. A pearl started to fall toward their location while they were trying to escape, Jesse found out that he is able to catch falling pearls and break them open. They get away from the jail and find a train to ride to a different city. Cassius boards the train too after he gets out of the cell he was put in. Cassius explodes on the train again after he drops his last two pills, that will help him not explode, down the drain.

In this part of the book the author starts to explain more, and go into detail about what he was talking about before. I'm not as confused as I was before, but there is still some confusion about some of the topics the characters talk about. I still don't understand why they say 'mass' instead of 'very'. One line in the book says 'this is a mass nice place you have here'. I'm sure it's part of the authors style of writing that makes him say 'mass'.
