"You, in charge?" Akina asked, then snorted out yet another laugh. "Let's get one thing straight here; I may be a Vanguard, but I'm in no way, shape, or form your subordinate. I don't follow your orders unless I find it a good idea. I'm just around because I was brought here, and I have nothing better to do half the time. So, get used to it, cutie; I'm going to be around, and I'm going to stay for a long,<em>long</em>time, whether you like it or not."<br/><br/>As she started to restrap her breastplate, Akina's attention then turned to Rosen's little dare. She knew that it would be a simple matter to get close to such a human, no matter how much experience she had with hunting her kind; however, as far as she knew, her world's demons and Rosen's world's demons could be two seperate beings. It seemed to her at the time that Rosen did not quite know how to handle her, and thus made her think her theory was true.<br/><br/>"Tempting dare, sweet thing," she said as she finished strapping on her breastplate, "but I think I've already proven I can get close to you, unless you have a short-term memory and can't remember a few minutes ago. However, let it be known that I can do it whenever I please, no matter what defense you put up. Like I said, I didn't reign so long because I let my subjects do all the fighting; in fact, I made it law that a battle could not start without me on the battlefield. So, brute force won't keep me away, sugar. Just remember that the next time you think that spear can cause me any harm."
