"Well, you can't stay here." He crossed his arms and glared down at her.

"Well, why not?" she crossed her own arms and glared up at him, mirroring his stance almost
flawlessly.

"Because it's too dangerous here."

"I've lived 'ere for at least three months! Don't ya dare give me that!"

"You can't stay here. You do not belong here. It is far to dangerous for your kind."

"I've only seen one danger 'ere, an' as long as I stay in tha ring, I'll be fine!"

"You can't stay here."

"Why not?! Give me one good reason!"

He let out a little sigh. "You need to be with your own people."

"No, I don't!" a note of fear entered her voice.

"Yes, you do."

"Why da ya want me ta leave so badly?"

"Why do you want to stay so badly? I've told you all along that you will be leaving.  This should not be a surprise."

"S'not." she muttered. "But I don't want ta leave."

"Why not?"

"Because..." she paused for a second. She hadn't told him about the past, and she wasn't going to now. So she gave him the first thing she came up with. "...'Cause I want ta learn magic."

He gave a little snort of laughter.  "Magic? Your kind can't use magic."

"I can."

"Prove it."

"I can't. That's why I want ta learn."

"If you can't prove you have magic, than what makes you think you do?"

"Its... come out on its own before."

"Oh really?"

"It's true! Look, give me a month a lessons.  If I can't da anything, then I'll leave. Yeah?"

He considered this for a minute before nodding. "Alright. One month. But no complaining when you leave."

She smiled and relaxed a bit. "Yeah. Where do we start?"

"With meditation."
I needed a dialog-centered work for my CW portfolio. another version of this will end up being in Siren's Song.
