"Let's go see what's happening!"
Said the girl as she pelted off through the low shrubs. Auri on the other hand was more than unhappy to follow, when you hear a wyvern and strangers you run the [i]other[/i] way. And yet they stayed where they were, standing on the balls of their feet, half turned to run but never doing so. Greed can be a powerful thing and Auri hadnt had a decent meal in a long time, the last village had kicked them out before they had had a chance to swipe anything and they were sick of downing potions designed to keep inedible things edible. Auri's stomach growled defiantly and they tch'd in response, shaking their head at their own foolishness, and followed the sounds carefully, trying their best to make as little noise as possible as they moved and keeping a hand underneath their poncho close to their more deadly vials.

Eventually Auri emerged in the clearing, crouching in the last shrub and unable to push themselves out fully into view. They would watch from here. If the girl died then there would go their food and Auri would have no reason to be near the wyvern any more, just the sight of it almost overcame their hunger and all but sent Auri fleeing into the relative safety of the dense forest.

As it was they did not flee and simply watched the exchange in a state of jumpy anxiety, wishing the conversation to be done with as soon as possible and the girl to lead Auri to some decent food.
