The two girls glared at one another, their argument ceasing as Jaakuna made his point. For a moment, there was silence.

It didn't last.

"[b][color=f6989d]We could probably take him on together.[/color][/b]" Emiri murmured.

"[b][color=fdc68a]Truly that concussion of yours is starting to take the blood from your brain.[/color][/b]" Nadeline responded, crossing her arms.

"[b][color=f6989d]Well it's true! What makes you think he won't steal the next Esper like he did just now?[/color][/b]"

"[b][color=fdc68a]We are lucky he decided to leave when he did, lest he goes and pulls another fatal attack on one of us.[/color][/b]"

"[b][color=f6989d]That's...You're missing the point![/color][/b]"

"[b][color=fdc68a]What point? The one where we foolishly go after that which we cannot defeat? Some of us value our lives![/color][/b]"

"[b][color=f6989d]Some of us aren't cowards![/color][/b]"

"[b][i][color=fdc68a]Look who's talking![/color][/i][/b]"

The two continued bickering, things starting to get heated. Nadeline couldn't believe how truly reckless Emiri had become. Was she crazy? Did she not hear Jaakuna? Once they were properly ready, then they could maybe fight him. She actually wanted to avoid fighting with that ruthless madman, but it couldn't be helped. Meanwhile Emiri couldn't believe the normally bold Nadeline was backing down from a challenge. Seriously, what was wrong with her? They needed to be realistic, the guy wasn't going to wait around for them, he was going to act, and they needed to take the initiative!
