Emerald nodded to the girl as she walked away, saying she didn't need any help. So now how was she supposed to get anything done? Apparently the two half-angels she had talked with so far hadn't trusted her. Why, she wasn't sure; she hadn't ever really fit in with other demons before, so they shouldn't see her as a demon. But then, blood is blood, and her blood was demon. Children did have an annoying internal alarm system for things like that, anyway. This was really getting more and more frustrating. She paused as she heard Laisin's plan, and closed her eyes, shaking her head. 'A good plan,' she consented, replying mentally to keep the other children from hearing.

She waited until she was sure Laisin had told the child what she needed to hear, and hesitantly took a step towards the girl. "I know you said you didn't want any help...but at least take some advice?" She approached the girl; she wasn't going to be thwarted by foolish excuses. "It's getting late, and children shouldn't be out so late at night. You'd be safer at home, or a friends house, you know?" She would wait for Laisin to attack. Her minor control over shadows would let her hide a good deal of it, so that the children wouldn't catch on.
