She'd said too much, great, she wasn't good at subtlety, but this wasn't a good situation to be in. "The manor is an entity in it's self, it's kind of a sentient being. Sens, one of the kids there can talk to objects, so far she's the only one that can speak to the manor. It doesn't really eat people, but yes they disappear, apparently the Manor just plops them somewhere else in the world, we don't really know how it works."

She laughed, "Of course we have to steal food, how else would a bunch of penniless ragamuffins like us manage to feed ourselves. Don't worry though most stores have extra goods just because of us, you should know that. so it's not as if we're stealing food out of other people's mouths. We need to eat too you know. Now come on." She got up and walked over to him grabbing him by the hand and pulling him to his feet.

"We've got to get home eventually, no sense lazing about. Come on Avon, I'm sure we can get you two something to do, even if kyle here won't steal from the stores." Just keep a close watch on him, eh?" still holding Kyle's arm she went on into the woods, leaving the pool and bushes of raspberries behind. They were surprisingly close to the manor, the woods quickly grew thin, and they were almost there.

Kyle's arm was hurting again. Doesn't Livia know what it feels like when someone grabs your arm, yanks you up and keep on holding on for a very long walk? he thought, though he just kept his mouth shut and followed Livia through the woods to this so called home for the weird people with powers. In his mind, he was debating on whether to give up his ATM card so they wouldn't have to steal or not. He made up his mind to. "But you don't have to steal! You can use my money!" He reached into his back pocket and pulled out his wallet and waved to Avon to stand beside him. Kyle shook it over Avon's hand and out came his ATM card. "See? You can use it. It's the most I can do to repay you for giving me... a home." Home. It was hard to speak out. Since he became conscious of the fact that he didn't belong anywhere due to his powers, people have been afraid of him and there was no place he personally called a home. Then suddenly, Cathriss was slapped on his face. Home. He shook his head. "Since I'll be living in your Manor, what use is it to me? I don't care about my money, and no matter what happens to me, my father's account will automatically transfer a hundred pounds into mine every month." His expression was pleading but his voice had a tone of uncertainty.

"100 pounds a month, we've near 20 mouths to fed and clothe, boy. 100 pounds for two weeks might feed a family of six with a good bit of food. Not to mention if the thefts stop and a bunch of rag wearing children show up to buy the supplies what will they think, we'll get even more idiots sent to different countries. Plus people we know, and our families might see us, the police. I'd be better not to be apprehended in broad daylight, make a scene." She pushed the ATM card back into his hand. "Save it, that way you'll have something when you get out of here. The majority of us will have to figure out what to do when we get to old for Cathriss."

She let go of his arm and continued on.
"This is Cathriss, lad. It'll take good care of ya till then," she poked the side of her nose in a joking manner. Now lets go get you patched up, I sur did a number on that arm of yours." she motioned to Avon and they walked across the grounds to the door.

"Avon'll show you where you're sleeping, that'd be where he does. And now that you're here careful to go to the library and read the rules, alright?" She walked off leaving the two of them on thier own in the manor. "I'll go find Veran to patch ya up." she called back before disappearing into the dining room.

"See ya, Livs." Avon smiled at Livia and pulled Kyle towards his room before he could object.
