Suspicions

Ethan made it back to the mall, tired from walking almost across the entire city to reach Kara's house.

Panting, he laid in his made up 'bed' and rested from his long walk.

Looking at Kayla, he saw that she was in almost immaculate shape.

'She did marathons and track and field during highschool…. No wonder she isn't as tired as me.'

Ethan kept his other questions to himself but asked the one that was the most important at the time.

"It could be due to his [Ability] it's not totally impossible for him to survive. We are in an apocalypse."

"But a child?"

"I agree with Ethan on this one. It could be just luck or he could just be smart enough to know what to do. Except, with how he was acting, I don't think it was the latter."
