Letting out a little puff of heated breath, Akina stepped closer to Rosen. From her body language alone, one could tell that she was not at all pleased at Rosen's remarks.<br/><br/>"There's a great many purposes I serve, girl," Akina said with a slight attitude to her voice. "I inform, I advise, I protect, just to name a few. You'd best figure out that you shouldn't shun or belittle me, or else it won't matter just how cute you are, I'm out of here, and you'll be fed to the dogs. No one said you had to like me, but you will damn well respect me."<br/><br/>Then, as if to prove her point, Akina held her staff so that one of the blades was just close enough to threaten slicing Rosen's throat.
