Love Of Eli

She tried on many occasions to seduce Eli, although all failed her. Eli never returned her feelings, for he truly does not care about her or pretty much anything.

2010-2013
Cassie was able to fit right in with most of the Reacher family. She would sit and watch television with Eli. Help Eugene Reach for snacks and little hugs Juice barrels. When Spartacus would stop by she always enjoyed siting and doing nothing with him as well. She loved her new life among the Reachers. Only one family member got under her skin and became her enemy. Ethan Reacher hated Cassie's addition to his already lame family. He would make fun of Cassie's dyed blue hair and love of anime. This made Cassie very angry and she became aggressive towards Ethan. the two would constantly bicker and even get into physical altercations at times. On one occasion Cassie hid all of Ethan's golf clubs. This caused Ethan to destroy some of her anime gear. Cassie was furious and started collecting her belongings from around the house. She was starting to become fed up with the family.

Life Upstairs
After countless rejections from Eli, relentless attacks from Ethan, and a lack of will to continue training under Eugene, Cassie retreats upstairs with a laptop and a sack of anime products. She takes a personal oath to watch as much media, especially anime as possible. She enjoys her new secluded life. No more worries or fears. The isolation from the world drives Cassie deeper into madness. She remains upstairs binging anime for four and a half years. The years take their toll on Cassie's body though. Her legs become weak and jelly like from not doing anything physical in years. She would go days and sometimes weeks without moving. This caused he to depend on her duel Reachers for mobile support.

Going Downstairs
After consuming as much anime as possible, Cassie uses her Reachers to help her move down the stairs to see what has been going on there for the past four and a half years.

He gives her a little refresher course in Reaching, but Cassie refuses to listen or partake. She rejects her master's words and leaves the room. As she does she finds that one of her Reachers, or limbs as she calls them due to the walking support they offer her breaks. This causes her to return to her teacher who in turns revives it for her using dark magic.
