Arizona watched Jean Bart, and her escorts approach. She was thankful for the fact that she had Effingham, and Suzuya beside her. She drew so much strength from her friends. As the other three drew new, and Jean Bart mimicked Ari's posture, Arizona's lips became a thin line. Though she was quite surprised to hear Jean Bart being so pleasant. Even going so far as to bow before Arizona, and her companion. Arizona could tell that she meant her apology about coming with Weapons drawn, and how her Flagship felt it necessary. The Battleship was starting to worry that what Zara, and Abby have been saying about the state of the Fog was worse than they let one. "Your apology is thankfully appreciated, and it is a pleasure to meet you as well." Arizona replied as she bowed to the three in respect, and a gesture of good will. "I'm Arizona, Flagship of Fog Detachment 223. This is my Vice-Flagship, Effingham." She stated to Effie on her right. "This is Suzuya, my Protector." She told Jean-Bart. The warmth she introduced the two showed that Arizona considering them much, much more than simple acquaintances, but close cherished friends.<br/><br/>With the introductions out of the way, Arizona's countenance returned to the business-like nature she had when the tree arrived. "You say your flagship is "Paranoid". What does she have to fear from us? We're few scattered ships that the rest of the Fog seemed to have forgotten about. What kind of threat are we to her to warrant such actions to approach us in such a hostile manner?" Arizona asked.
