Hah. What an amusing thought. For so long, Aralyn had done everything on her own and was used to and happy with doing so. Yet, for the first time, she had someone in it with her - and she was unsure that she liked it. "...Fine. Just stay close," the blonde replied, eyebrows furrowing as the beast came into sight. As long as the other female was close enough, she could guard her with her barriers - which had already began forming around them, demonstrating a faint but pure light.
But as the beast spoke... Aralyn almost let the barrier go down. There was no time wasted in her response. "...Your master. Does he work here? As the World History teacher, by any chance?" she asked, keeping her voice as calm as she could. "If so, we're looking for him. He never came around, so we decided to make sure he was around and alright.. Except, we accidentally set off some magical trinket in the process," she explained.

"His security wards! Something was rooting around my masters work! And I can smell its influence now!"
"That would explain why the pentacle was glowing blue."
Ella said thoughtfully before dispelling her weapon. The longsword returned to crucifix form, going around her neck as she crossed her arms in thought.
The only question was why anyone would want to rob a history teachers office, even if they were a wizard. Was it connected to his absence today? She looked at Aralyn pondering as she asked aloud in curiosity.
"We should report this to the authorities. One of us can go to find the local Ketchman, the other can head off to our professors apartment and check it out?"
Ketchman....A Moonlit term for what was broadly best compared to a Sheriff or some form of Law Enforcement among the magical community. Certainly, each faction was governed over by their own kind. But if something like this, that couldn't be hidden was found? It was time to call out one of them.
The only problem was what they were. Drawn from the ranks of hunters and the like, to many creatures with long memories? It was akin to seeing the local gestapo agent in uniform next to a holocaust survivor. Great potential to save, but a lot of red tape and anger to cut through if involved.
What choice do you make?
