"I'm not working for the demon." She replied to him after he had finished explaining himself. At least she was talking to him, that was a good sign. Tink breathed a sigh of relief that she had forgiven him. He didn't know what he would have done had he made an enemy of her.
"That's good. So what-"He said starting to ask a question before remembering how well it went last time. He looked up to see that she was staring at him now. He looked into her hazel eyes and secretly wished they would tell him something about her. As if by his command her eyes started to glow an unnatural orange. Each pupil moved as if driven by it's own flame and then was quenched just as quickly. He rubbed his eyes and looked back at her but they were the came hazel as before. Despite being brief, Tink had no doubt that it had really happened. He knew illusions well and that definitely wasn't one.
"That's cool. You've seen what magic I know." he said with a shrug. In case she didn't know what he meant he created a life-size illusion of himself next to him. He didn't put any thought into the illusion so instead it was a comical version of himself. It stood taller and skinnier than himself and it's hat was 3 sizes too large, hanging down over it's eyes.
"Tink!" He heard someone yell from the camp. He jumped and his illusion wavered before he turned to see Axe walking towards them.
"Tinkerton, ready for duty!" He recited after swiftly taking to the air and saluting.
"Who is this girl? Is she a new recruit? Why are you accompanying her?" Axe asked in his usual loud and commanding voice.
"Girl what girl?," he asked forgetting all about the girl next to him for a moment. "oh her. Well her name is...(sending a questioning glance at the girl) well I don't know her name. I don't think she's a new recruit and she was alone in the woods when I found her." He said knowing as soon as he started that it didn't sound good. He didn't want to jump to conclusions and say that she was potentially a chosen one. She could share that when she was ready.
