Nick nodded and looked straight ahead. It was up to him to make sure she was safe. The fact that they were relying on her sources made him feel like he had to step it up a bit. "Good. That should work out just fine for us. Anything helps." he said without looking at her. "You have a car we can use?" he asked, still not looking at her. He was focused on their surroundings should anything suddenly happen. He was on high alert.<br/><br/>Nick closed his hand around hers and gave it a light squeeze. "You'll be alright. I won't let anything happen to you." he said, looking straight at her, wishing there was more he could do for her. "I wish you never ended up in that place." he said with much regret. If she hadn't ended up in the underground place that the demons sent them, then she wouldn't have to worry about her life being in danger. He was just glad that she fully accepted that he was there to protect her, not harm her. Her acceptance of that made it much easier to lead her to safety.<br/><br/>She introduced herself and asked for his name.<span style="font-style: italic">Auria...what a beautiful name.</span>Nick looked at her again. "My name is Nicholas, but I go by Nick." he said. Nick gave her a small smile and looked forward again to see if they were getting any closer. They were. The town was coming into view. A small bit of relief seeped into him. This was their first step. Hopefully it would only get easier from there, but only time would tell.
