Riza was not so jumpy as to be startled by the voice near one of the tables. Although she is surprised someone is up this late -- especially when she turns and realizes it's one of the younger residents. The boy, however, only looks startled by her presence, and not some monster. Granted, she must look a sight -- blonde hair tousled and falling all over while she holds a knife tightly in her hand, her eyes wide with anxiety and perhaps a little fear. But still---if he'd seen what she had---but it doesn't make sense. Where else could it have gone? There were no screams. No sounds of a fight going on upstairs and this floor seemed just as empty. She lowered the knife, though she still appeared to be scanning the room.
She decided she better confirm her suspicions and asked, "Did you see something come through? A creature?"
being vague cause i wasn't sure if we should hand wave them having "met"
