She's a thief not a killer like Mercury was raised and Cinder pretty much is.

She follows Cinder because she basically picked her up off the street. Recall how Cinder says she'll never go hungry again. She's basically a cynical orphan who had to fend for herself. She has the misfortune of being picked up by the antagonists.
