Aurora had been in the custody of the Ark for a few weeks now. She had been given help, but the biggest help she found was the reassurance of a Vera Kane. She helped her to accept the inevitable, that she was alone now. Aurora expected to be with the other orphans until she turned 18, but it seemed like Vera Kane, the religious leader and kind woman, had different ideas. One afternoon after school Aurora found Vera packing up her things. She froze in the door, shocked. Why would she take her things? But then Vera turned around, smiling brightly. The woman explained to Aurora why she packed her things. She had gotten custody for Aurora and would take her in. After helping her with packing her two large bags with what belongings she had for herself and from her father and grandmother, she followed Vera to where she would live now
Aurora looked around curiously. The apartment was bigger than the one where she had lived. Vera brought her straight to a small room. It held a bed and a closet, more than she had in this group placement and perfectly enough for her, though Vera still felt the need to apologize. She apologized again for having to leave until the late evening again. Not quite knowing what to do with herself, Aurora sat in the living area of the apartment and pulled out her small tablet to do her homework. With the whole moving she had not gotten that done yet. It still felt weird to be in this new place, but with how legal this already was, she guessed she would have to get used to it.

Marcus bounced into his mother's place and almost turned around and walked out--Had he come to the wrong place? Who was the girl? His mother sometimes took in children, but never for long. He no longer lived here so she had the space to do it. "Hello." He greeted in a light way. Then in a bit more serious/curious one, "Who are you?" He tried to remember if his mother was taking anyone else in--but honestly he tuned most of her conversations out when she got in on the children.
He cared, but he was trying to be a guardsmen, not a priest. He was more about fixing the problem rather then helping the victims. Even still, this girl was older and sort of hot. He walked closer tot he table and put his two hands on it so he could lean over and look at what she was working on. Homework? Marcus was grateful he was past that stage. He had paid his dues and now he wanted to move up into a position that gave him some freedom to make the choices--not follow someone else.

Using the pen, Aurora wrote her homework down. She needed every good grade she could get, if she wanted to get a good job. Being here would certainly help her, though. She suspected Vera would keep a lot of worries off of her back while she studied and she intended to make herself useful in return. As Vera had not given her a task and she had not seen any possible task she could do, she had no choice but to do her homework. That was until the door opened and a young man came in as if she belonged here. She knew, from her grandmother, that Vera had a son, but she couldn’t remember ever meeting him. The age might even fit, so that was probably her legal guardians son.
“I’m Aurora Blake.” She replied. “I’m … Vera has gotten custody over me.” Meaning she was her legal guardian now, she didn’t know if the woman had told her son about her or if it was a spontaneous decision to take her in. Either way, she was very grateful for what the woman was doing for her. She felt more hope than earlier that day, when she was prepared to fight her guardians on getting to do homework or studying. Now the young man stood over her, basically, peeking onto her tablet. Aurora tilted the screen to show him what she was doing. “Are you Veras son?”
