Aria's weight shifted under the scrutinising gaze of both Jedi masters. In the back of her mind she considered the chance she would have of disappearing altogether. There were places in the galaxy that one could go where even the most adept Force sensitives would not be able to track through the noise of the other lifeforms. Aria had been tempted to try it, to go to such a world and seek out a way of removing her connection to the Force entirely to make sure there was no way she could have been followed, but she had been too young and lacked many of the basic piloting skills to pull off such a feat and it was soon abandoned altogether. And now was in so deep, was there really any escape? She wracked her brains, trying to think quickly of some kind of excuse that they would find believable without blowing her cover prematurely. The rest of the Sith might not know the truth, and thus would not ask too many questions if she were to disappear from the acolytes' ranks, but her father did and he would be watching for her return; at least for a while.
"Perhaps. But as far as they would know on my return I would have escaped my imprisonment on my own. Why give you the credit for it when it puts my neck on the line? You might think it perhaps but I'm not stupid. I've learned how to manipulate my words to my own gains. He might be stronger than me but that doesn't mean I can't give him the slip if I wanted to."

The acolyte knitted her fingers together and rested her chin on her entwined hands as she pondered the possibilities. Agree to help them, for now, or push them until they did use the techniques that they threatened to be capable of? Aria's throat quivered as she swallowed nervously. Being nearly eaten alive was a fate she had come almost close to once before and she had no wish to risk it again. She didn't want to drag this conversation out for fear of seeming too suspicious and the Jedi woman was right. There'd be no-one to save her skin from the starving Force sensitive tomb beasts if it came to that.
"The truth rarely serves me well, I find." she smirked, but nodded abruptly. "So that's it, you would just let me go if we survived?" it seemed too simple, there had to be another catch...surely?
