Well, this was quite the conundrum. Aurora's eyes flitted between the two Children of the Dark, slowly processing the information that had just given her. She only had two real options, and neither of them were very appealing. Option one, try to leave the Deathwood under her own power. If she chose to carry out with this one, she has a very high chance of death. There was no telling who else was in these woods if a General of the Dark is patrolling in these parts. In addition, with the high probability of smashing into trees and damaging her body even further, the faerie was surprised that she hadn't broken her own neck yet. As uncaring as she was about her own mortality, the brunette would rather not die in such an unsightly manner. The second choice was just as bad, having to trust the enemy to bring her safely to the Light side of the border... Like they weren't just going to stab her in the back when she let her guard down.

Eyes narrowed in suspicion, Aurora picked herself up from the ground and looked at the duo infront of her with a curious intensity. Why did they care so much about a single grimore, enough to betray their own Kingdom? Couldn't they just buy another one from their witch friends? Her free hand channeled a hint of magic, creating a small tongue of flame on the tip of her index finger. Well, she was going to find out. The last time she was suspicious about the Children of Darkness, they were kidnapping the angel princess of the Light. There would be no lucky guessing this time.

Aurora held the book near the tongue of flame she had generated, the fire not yet touching the book, and not near enough for the wind to blow and catch the object on fire. The faerie focused on the witch in particular as she did the action. Let's make them sweat a little. [Color=pink]"Why don't you tell me why you care about a stupid book? What kind of evil secrets are hidden inside?"[/color] Aurora asked the witch, completely and totally relaxed as the upper hand within this situation. If they get too close, the book burns, and then she will fight them to the death. If they give their answer... Well, it depends upon the answer, in all honesty.
