Aaron was so startled by her words that he dropped his shield on the ground. He picked it up in a hurried manner, and tried to regain his composure. "Great, what a day. That burnout gets himself in trouble so I don't get paid, and now I run into a fricking witch. I don't know if you're screwing with me or not, but nothing about this whole thing seems right. Go ahead and boil frogs or whatever witches do, but I don't want any part in that "dark magic" shit. Oh, and if your blonde friend is anything like you are, I won't even bother looking for her." All that magic stuff was beyond him, he didn't even know how his shield worked. It just did, and that was what mattered to him. Maybe someday he'd look into it further, but he was too caught up trying to establish himself and find his father to worry about that stuff now. He looked around the alleys, trying to remember what was walking distance from his current location.
