She took a deep breath, then blinked and aimed at Gabriel instead. "It doesn't give you a free pass, Joseph.. While I thank you for attempting to protect me, keep in mind that I am willing and able to protect myself just as much, only much much more so.."

She took a moment to calm her irritation as well as her nerves. Hopefully, Joe was still on her side. "I'll ask you one more time.. Why did you come in here, and what is it that you [i]really[/i] want in here?"
