“No, I don’t and that gives me every reason to be wary of you and not trust your intentions here. No one giving themselves the title of hunter has ever meant well in our town. History, all of the stories, they show that.” She sighed, glancing over her. “Fine. I’ll walk with you. I still don’t want you to pass out on me. You’ve just pushed your muscles too far,” she noted.
“I’m a witch… I have my own problems that I don’t need to share with you,” she said as she started to walk. “Don’t you get it? You’re calling it a mission. In our town. Whatever you’re doing is never going to be welcomed by anyone here.”
“Then answer me this… do you want peace between the humans and supernatural? Yes, we helped each other that night… and I still don’t know where we stand. Magic you?” she laughed a little, the words sounding slightly funny. “Believe it or not, we don’t just use magic on people. We have our own rules and morals too.” She paused. “So you do have a boss? What is he trying to prove here?”
“Because it’s his town, his people. What did you want him to do. Welcome you with open arms? Put his people in danger?” She sighed, glancing down at her leg. “I’m a paramedic. I have this really good stuff for it. I also have you know… witchy stuff. But I don’t you want that.”
Fallon wouldn’t argue with the town’s history. It was one catastrophe after another, but hunters hardly shared the bulk of it, but that did depend on what history you read.
“I figured that much. Kinda zoned out while running.” Fallon admitted, the air feeling cold against her still sweating body. The quicker she got to take a hot shower the better.
“Exactly why I lied and had a cover. But things happened and I got found out. I knew there would be a possibility of becoming persona non grata, but It’s my job to put myself on the line to help others.” Fallon said matter of factly, feeling like they understood each other pretty well. “We all have our secrets and agendas, especially when it comes to all of this supernatural business.” She’d been at this too long she didn’t know how to relate to people anymore. Everything was about her mission so this distance that was created when people found out actually suited her more.
“Of course I do. So I don’t blame you for being wary. I know I would be. I don’t think there’s anything that I could say to get you to fully trust me.” She said, honestly. And she sighed when turning to talk about her boss. “Ultimately, I think my boss wants to prove that while we can all live peacefully we should never forget the differences between our species. To not respect those differences and understand them means people will get hurt. On all sides.” She said, having seen it first hand enough times that the sentiment was true for her.
Fallon chuckled at the idea of the stern and very scary Mayor greeting her with a hug. “I’m more surprised I didn’t get forcefully ejected from the city limits or worse. But I’m not lying, we talked. I’m still here because he allows me to be.” Though that was a tenuous allowance she knew and it meant even more she needed to be here to keep an eye on Aria lest she get found out too.
“I’d really appreciate any stuff for it. I usually am more careful. But I’m not scared of witchy stuff, you know, just super curious and just as wary. I’d ask too many questions about it, so probably best to stick to the paramedic stuff.” She said, plainly.
