Wouldn't you rather save yourself, then become another victim to an Avada Kedavra curse? When saying that you'd never use Dark Magic, that's like saying you'd rather die than kill a dark wizard." she paused to think for a concluding statement. "well, that's just something for everyone to think about."

Audrey thought for a moment this time before she spoke. The girl had asked some very thought provoking questions."Once again, I think it goes back to what is right and what is wrong. The terrible thing about dark wizards is that they will use an unforgivable curse. Because of that, we consider them evil. By using one against them, are you saving yourself and defeating one of them, or are you simply dissolving the barrier between good and evil? Are you becoming one of them? It all depends in what you believe; I don't think there is a clear answer on what's right and what's wrong. Everything isn't black and white...there is a grey area here, I believe."

She stopped speaking and went back to her notes, a little more confident in what she had said this time. She was glad that another student had agreed with her previous statement.
