Aaron clung to Shadow almost desperately as they flew and didn't bother to open his eyes this time. He didn't want to see the burning, the smoke or the firemen nad women down below. He just could't. When they landed Aaron stumbled slightly but managed to remain upright. He looked at Shadow as the demon asked the question and he could feel his chest constrict slightly.

"Yes..." he mumbled quietly, glancing away from the demon but there was nothing to look at so his gaze returned to Shadow. "I remember what I prmised you." His tongue felt too big for his mouth adn he had to force himself to swollow. His throat felt like sandpaper it was so dry. "What...what do we do now? How does this work?"

It felt bizarrely like he was entering into some kind of contract, a contract that he was unable to back out of. Shadow had alreaydy upheld his part of the deal and now it was Aaron's turn.
