Akio sighed at Takeshi's completely incorrect comment on her fighting style. [color=Gold][i]Someone needs to learn how to listen, tempted to just let him think that, but that would cause complications to the mission.[/i][/color]

[color=Gold]"Completely wrong, I'm a distance fighter for the most part, but can hold my own when it comes to close quarters. I'll be watching your back and keeping you from getting overwhelmed by picking off and weakening foes from a distance. As for Tsukiko-nee not saying anything? Probably because nobody asked.[/color] Shortly after she said that, Takeshi warned her about taking Yamato lightly, as well as telling her to focus on the mission more. Needless to say the comment earned her fellow good wearing loner a small glare, though it was more out of annoyance than anything else. She took a few seconds to try and calm herself down, with mild success. [color=Gold]". . . *tch* I will take that arrogant prick down a notch someday. . . but not today. I'll take your word for it and do it what any good strategist would: study him and see what makes the asshole tick."

As they entered the land of frost, Akio felt a slight chill, but her clothes did a good job of keeping the heat in. Was still pretty chilly, though, and Saburo's comments about his own history(as well as his complete lack of emotion while saying it) did little to lighten conversation. His next statement about what she assumed to be a slumber party, however, more than made up for things. While she only nodded her agreement with her teammates decision, one could practically feel the excitement radiating from her at the idea. 

[color=Gold][i]Thank the Rikudo Senin for Saburo, I've always wanted to have a slumber party! Is it weird that I'm the only girl though? Hmmm. . . ahh, who cares, I'm sure it'll be fine. Besides, if they try anything, I'll make sure it's the last thing they do.[/i][/color] This thought was followed by a dark chuckle that would send a definite shiver up Takeshi's spine, while Saburo's ignorance of the subject would make him immune to it. When the older churning asked for them to speed up, Akio was happy to oblige, picking up her pace as she hurried along to their destination. She wanted to get this mission over with so that they could go home and have the slumber party already.
