Rose looked at Kasumii with judgmental eyes. She watched hard for any aggressive actions by this girl. Rose did take the girl so willing to give her name favorably. Rose responded with a polite curtsy, "[color=00aeef]I am known as Rea Hargrove. I am among the elder magical girls tasked with guarding this city. Forgive my aggressive introduction. Now One of my trusted few was just murdered, I try not to wear my emotions on my sleeves best to keep the suitors guessing, you know.[/color]" Rose's voice was cold, almost as cold as Yuna's ice. Rose rested her left hand on the hilt of her sword ever so casually. She took a deep breath and continued, "[color=00aeef]You are saying that you have been investigating killing of our kind. I know of another who has told me the same story. I trust her however. What have you found in your investigations that might help me avenger my friend[/color]"

Rose might have acted politely but her actions were far from it. Rose did not know how this girl would act. She could be the killer even though she doubted it. Rose was silently using her magic to secure the upper hand if a fight broke out. Rose was controlling the water form one of the water fountains and maneuvering it into position. A ball of water was slowly forming just off the ground around the corner. Another two streams silently moved along the floor concealed behind the bookshelves.
