Kasumi turned her gaze on me.
"I don't like it either Kas. But if Tamotsu trusts her, don't you?"
Kasumi huffed again and grumbled to herself.
Shiori kelt with her head down and wouldn't look at any of us.
"Shiori," I said
She startled and looked up at me. "Yes?" At least her voice sounded strong.
"If you stay with us, you have to act like one of us. No harm to any innocent people, human or halfer."
She tried to rebutle but I gave her an icy stare.
"Yes, okay."
"Dani could you get blankets for her? She's going to stay with us," I said authoritativly.
"WHAT?!" Kasumi shouted. Tamotsu grabbed her hand.
Dani looked surprised at my decision, but did as I asked.
"It's fine Kasumi, she's not a bad person you'll see," Tamotsu said.
"Yeah whatever," Kasumi said.
"Thank you," Shiori said with a somewhat...un-practiced smile.
I looked over at her coldly, "Please don't make a fuss. We aren't here to babysit." I don't think I would ever like her, but she still deserved a second chance. Just like Gray. Just like everyone who had made bad decisions in life.
