Tatyana held Maddi tighter for a moment. She wanted to pull in Kenzie so bad, but the other girl was harder to bring in. Tatyana understood that. It was hard for her to trust too. "I'm so sorry sweeties. It had to have been so hard for you to go through that." She turned to Kenzie. "I know - I'm lucky I have this - it's why it's so important to me."
At this point she was no longer surprised to hear Nox's name. The kids had already said he had come. She had no desire to talk about him though. It was more than likely to make her angry and she didn't need the kids to see that. She'd deal with Nox when she could and figure out what the story was. Maybe he'd actually be truthful about it. The Ascendancy popped up and she wondered why he had been down here. It surely hadn't been to help these kids. She was certain the man was just another rich asshole who cared nothing about anyone who couldn't make him a penny or two. Coming down here hadn't been altruistic. It made her happier she was allied with Zeke who was actually doing something to help these kids that Nox had made homeless.
"Well - you have me now too," she smiled and finally had an idea to help get Kenzie to open up a bit. She looked towards her. "You've been learning to fight? My dad taught me how to fight too. Will you show me what you've learned? I'd really like that."
