What Are You Thinking?
A frown appeared on Aspen's brow. "Huh? Why do you want it now? We have agreed that I will be the one who will stab you in the heart if something goes wrong-?" he asked in bewilderment.
Esmeralda sighed heavily. Dang! Aspen can be so stubborn and irritating sometimes!
"Think about it, there's only six of us now. Sooner or later, something will go seriously bad. Honestly, do you think that you won't be separated from me during the heat of the battle?" she asked him. "What if we all got caught and Maxwell will release all the monsters and the dark shadow armies? What do you think will happen to the innocent people out there? If those flesh-eating monsters will reach far-flung places where most people are residing? Then we will have a bloodbath. I don't want to see innocent people being slaughtered cruelly because of my selfishness. And we both know, only my death can end all this..." she said without a hint of sadness in her voice.
