"i miss my mom" she whimpered "and dad."

Kain had walked over to Ava and grabbed her hand with both of his smol hands
(Smol means small just cuter)
ash looked away from him and started crying, but no tears rolled down her cheeks.
"No, I'm on the run from my family," Ava replied, annoyed. "And kit? You definitely grew up with the wolves." but hearing the girl's words, she scowled. "Kid, parents don't mean anything. They just protect you from everyone else, but in the end, they turn on you. Everyone does."
Kain whimpered and nuzzled into Ava's arm
"my dad didnt" she told ava, standing up "he saved me."
"speaking of parents where are kain's?" she asked
"Doesn't have any," she replied and sighed, hugging Kain closer. He was such a smol bean.
"What?! EVERYONE has parents. Also is kain like your chilled?"
"Really? You don't really have any anymore after they try to kill you and cover it up," Ava said in an annoyed tone. "And no, he's just a smol bean that needs to be protected. He's only 9 anyways."
"mabie hes a herareth."
(herareth means like an apprentice)
"he's your herareth." ash said, making up her mind.
"Look, I don't mean to be so forward, but be straight. Who sent you?" she asked through clenched teeth and narrowed her eyes.
"no-one" ash said glaring at her
"Then why here? Why us? And why do you seem to be so… ignorant of so many things? Have you been living under a rock for your entire life?" Ava questioned.
Kye was silently listening to their conversation as well as keeping an eye out for any unwanted attention. He walked over to the fire escape and jumped up to grab it. Then he pulled himself up and let the ladder down for the others. "Hey, if you want to keep talking that's great and all, but do so while we move," he called down to them.
"Fine," she sighed and climbed up the ladder, following Kye.
Kain followed Ava but feared Ash
Ava looked apologetically at kain seeing he was scared of her
Ava took Kain aside by the shoulders gently and began to speak to him in a soft voice. "Listen kid, I… don't really trust that kid either, but if we want to survive, we gotta be able to all get along, okay? Could you try? I'll protect you if anything happens, I promise."
Kain nodded but still a small whimper came from him
Ava sighed. It was hard, having to hide her true emotions. Inside, she was shaking, trembling, even whimpering like Kain. But still not a single peep of sound or motion escaped her body.
Ethyn followed Kye silently. He was wrapped up in his thoughts, thinking about how he could help without pissing off Kye. He had taken the glasses off and his eyes weren't fully orange anymore, only the iris. "So, where are we going again?" he asked Kye.
"We are headed to the edge of the city to get some help from a friend of mine," Kye explained. "Or, if we can't reach him, we'll be hopping towns."
"Oh? Who is this friend you speak of?" Ava inquired.
