Her grip tightned on her bow as he turned against her. "You said you were sent to kill Caspian. That alone is enough for me to not trust. You also call yourself ruthless and kill without second thought. Become my enemy or friend, the choice is yours, but hurt Caspian or my children and I will not rest until you are rightfully punished." She silently hoped the boy would understand and not fight. She didn't want to kill, she hated it. She had killed the falcon and for many weeks it had played over in her mind, both in and out of dreams. She hated to kill.

Devon dropped his bloody daggers in the sand and looked at her, " Your friend yes, your enemy no" he walked up to her, "Lets take a little walk and let me tell you a little about me that's if it's ok with you", Devon puts out his hand for a handshake.

Susan's eyes would not leave the daggers as he spoke. she would never admit it but the sight of blood was not a good thing for her. Her stomach flipped over again when she tore her gaze away. She did not lower her arrow or extend her hand. "I've been to quick to call people ally recently," She said thinking of Lucy's murderer, "I'll have to watch you for a bit longer before I can say if I can trust you as a friend."

"Was Carter the one you killed just now?" She looked back to the body that stained the desert with it's blood remembering the mare she had sacrificed to get here. It hurt that after she had tried so hard to find some water for him, even if it meant spending hours walking through the desert instead of riding through, she had still died. If anything it made the belief inside her that nothing will last forever, not her time under Lamont's torture or her time with Caspian at her side. She lowered her bow but kept the arrow knocked and her hand on the string. He could still turn against her at any moment. "You could have at least give him a chance to defend himself. Why did you do it?"

Devon looked at her with a smile, tears ran down his face ," yes I killed carter, I still have my power to turn into him, Devon throws his daggers in the desert lake "those daggers have the blood of carter on them" Devon looked at her bow , " you can put your guard down now" Devon walks in front of her and continues to go north.

She disregarded the last part and her grip only tightened. The last one who had consistantly tried to convince them that he was their friend and earn their trust turned on them and killed Lucy. Being that he was told to kill Caspian it could happen again. "But why? What did he do to make you kill him. He hadn't done anything to us and you killed him. Why should I give you the chance to live? Why shouldn't I kill you now? Yes, you haven't been the most horrible of people here. You heal with magic I don't understand and you have offered your service. But then again, you are meant to kill Caspian and you killed Carter before he's even done anything."

"So your story changes," She sighed and looked to the sun and prayed they were headed south. That was where Tash lived, that was where she needed to be if she was going to kill him. She didn't understand what was happening. What did he mean when he meant 'change back.' Was it simply him charging and attacking, or did he actually change form like Cotnar and Firemane did? Was it possible that yet another demon was working their way into narnia? She looked down for only an instant, her eyes landing in two places before she raised her head again. She looked at him, her eyes meeting with his as he said to. "No, I don't trust you."

Devon changed back into his regular self, " If I didn't control it he would have killed you" he looked at her "well i guess we stop here for now i'm really tired what about you" , he started a fire and layed out a blanket for himself and handed her one and he layed there and looked at the stars.

"I've been tired most of the day lately," She said regretting that she had told him moments after she said it, "But I can't afford to rest. I have to keep going and finish my mission. That's what comes first, before myself."

She looked past the fire as he slept. The sun was set and the land was cool now. But the wind still came and continued to shift the endless tides of the sea of sand. The fire flickered and waved in the wind, sending it's dancing shadows all around them. You need rest. I can keep going. I must keep going. If I stop then who will bring down Tash? I have to do this and survive. If you do not rest you will lose the reason for going. Without arguing further she chose a place beside the fire and curled into a ball. She had no blanket or pillow now, only the sand. But she would be content with just resting. Quietly she hummed a seemingly tuneless song she sang as a child until she fell asleep.

Flames erupted from behind the sand dune that conceiled him. He watched for a long time as he killed the creature he called Carter and fought for Susan's trust. She would not give it to him, not to anyone she did not know well at this point. Her own father was denied her trust and he was no trap laid out by the demons, but a true soul of the dead brought to Narnia by Aslan. When at last she fell asleep he stood and went to where the boy lay and kicked his side. waiting for him to wake up. But he didn't want Susan to wake. Not yet at least.

Devon awoke from his sleep to see a strange guy in front of him" Who the hell are you and what do you want" Devon still wishing he had his daggers, He stood there with his knife.
