"Without...?"

*Grey wondered a moment, a few things coming to mind. Looking down at the girl and seeming to size her up, determining if she might have potential. It was hard to say, with her being in such a sad state already... But he still had to try. It was his duty to help those who couldn't help themselves after all.*

"There are ways. They wont work every time though... To not kill is to give a second chance. Not all are grateful, and some might use this chance to try and hurt you once more."
Beverly
*Juna couldn't help but feel slightly down casted at the response, it wasn't that she didn't expect it, though she could only blame herself for getting her hopes up even slightly. He said there were ways. If there were then maybe Juna could figure it out from there even if it didn't guarantee working. A chance was better than none at all.*

"I want to know how then..."*She'd say, looking back up him. The Canifor had retained a more serious look, her tail growing still as she waited for his response. Juna knew very well that taking advice from a stranger could just end in her getting herself killed, but for what few spiteful people were left in this world, she needed what she could get. Not every person was gonna be friendly, but maybe the ones she found could help her defend herself against them.*
Nicola
*Grey's eyes would seem to widen at the sudden determination in Juna. Something he hadn't seen much of in the short time he's talked with her. The droopy pitiful look in her eyes replaced by a seriousness... How odd. Grey couldn't help himself but smirk in response.*

"Very well then. Come with me."

*How interesting Grey thought to himself. His amusement overcome by a realization of required gear. He looks around, the wolf's keen senses eventually finding him a prey. A tree, not far off in the distance with branches strong and durable. They'd function mechanically the same, if not abit unrefined and unwieldy. He turns towards the tree, heading off in its direction, waving the for smaller Canifore to follow.*
Beverly
*Juna's tail would give a light flick in response. Was that a potential sign of happiness from her? If it was, it would be the first in a long while. The Canifor would follow after Grey, seeing him make his way over to a tree.

Juna couldn't help but tilt her head slightly, unsure of what exactly he was planning for them to do with it. Climb in it maybe, but Juna already did that anyways. Unless he was trying to say that she should simply hide out in the trees, but that didn't make much sense either.*
Nicola
*The two soon arrive at their destination, and Grey stands idle next the the tree. He observes quietly before reaching to his back, gently lifting the longsword that rested there. In two clean swipes, Grey brings down two of the tree's branches. Taking out a smaller knife as he sits, cleaning off the smaller leaf barring twigs growing off the two. Within a few moment's the wolf had seemed to craft two quarter staffs from the tree, the wolf soon tossing one to Juna.*

"This. This is your new weapon of choice."
Beverly
*Juna would clumsily catch the staff as it was thrown to her, having to readjust her hold so as not to drop it. With him pointing out the branch being her new weapon, Juna would simply stare back at him as if he had gone crazy.*"A... Stick...?"*She'd question, looking down at it.*"How... How is this supposed to help me defend myself...?"
