[There are a few things that happen all in a row that startle Aloy -- Lance's weapon vanishing into thin air, the way he lunges for the girl, the fact that the girl apparently... wasn't actually trying to get at Aloy... whoops -- but there's no time to dwell on any of that now, so she puts it in the back of her mind.
While Lance deals with the girl, Aloy moves back to the door to push it back into place the best she can, both so the girl doesn't dart out and also so nobody, like, sees them in here. They're less likely to be stopped if they can't be seen.]
Hey-- we're here to bring you back to your father. Don't worry, [she says, glancing over at Lance for help. She doesn't know how the hell to deal with kids...]
