Ava smiled at the boy that had spoken earlier and smiled as he answered her question about the smell she had asked earlier.  "Thank you.  It's good to know that it will eventually become tolerable.  I wonder if we smell different to them?"  She asked.   Kiryu and Alex had gone towards the kitchen and she had not realized they had returned when the smaller girl, who seemed to know her name, introduced the very boy that had insulted them earlier.<br/><br/>"Yes, my name is Ava.  A pleasure to meet you, Lyk."  She said civilly.    Rudeness was rudeness no matter who you were or what species you might be.  But, if there was going to be peace, she would still reach out and try.<br/><br/>As the bell rang, Ava stood up.  "I think you are right little one.  Saved indeed."  She smiled, as she headed towards class.
