Eventually, it was Samantha's turn to rouse from her slumber. As she stood up, it took approximately two seconds for her to go from being on high alert because of the unfamiliar surroundings and how she had gotten there, to confusion when she noticed that there were other girls on the island and they were all wearing swimsuits. She wasn't sure why, but she expected being kidnapped to be less... lighthearted? She was concerned, but everyone else seemed rather okay with the situation, so she imagined there was not any immediate danger. So for now, she remained completely calm.  

Spying Veronica, the girl naturally decided she would approach her employer, whom she hoped would have a better idea of their situation. Though a mere second after Sil thought to do this, Veronica herself confirmed to another girl that that was simply not the case. A shame, but if Veronica wasn't in the know about things, then perhaps it would be best to keep her guard up after all? 

Samantha's inclination was to keep a cold exterior up anyways, so that wasn't a particularly difficult plan to follow through on. She wore an apathetic expression as she glanced at the others. 

[color=violet]"Heeeeey!"[/color] a voice called out. 

Samantha recognized the girl's voice instantaneously. Chloe. She could not forget that girl's voice no matter how hard she tried. But even if she could, doing so could potentially be an even bigger mistake than the one she made when she was sparring with Veronica. Chloe was an important, unique girl, after all. Sam knew this much since their encounter at Chloe's apartment. She was capable of things Sil had not seen other magical girls do before, and that alone was something to keep an eye out for. The fact that she hadn't once heard anybody else recognize this was, quite honestly, baffling to the assassin. 

Was everyone else just stupid? 

Maybe it was arrogant to think that she alone was the only one who could comprehend the importance of Chloe. That, in a sense, she was almost a sort of 'chosen one' who could recognize greatness. But if there was one thing she had become certain of in her time as a magical girl, it was this: 

Not many of them appreciated a good cup of coffee. 

[color=red][i]Fools, all of them![/i][/color]

[color=violet]"Dunno what's going on here, but I'll take eye candy any day, heh. Any of you beauties happen to be free for a bit of fun on this mysterious deserted island?"[/color]

Now that Chloe had spoken a few more words, Samantha remembered that she was a bit difficult to interact with. But maybe it was simply because Samantha never quite could understand the point of flirting and the sort. Wasn't it kinda dumb? A proud girl like Samantha could only find such trivial things irritating. She should hurriedly put a stop to this before it got out of hand, after all. She approached Chloe with narrowed eyes and a fire in them reminiscent of those woman with short hair who felt a need to speak to the manager of a fast food establishment because a new employee accidentally forgot to take off the pickles.

[color=red]"You know,"[/color] Samantha turned a palm up. Happening to glance at it and perhaps seeing something that wasn't typical, the girl's eyes snaked along her own arm and down towards her body as she spoke. The volume and confidence of her voice soon followed suit. [color=red][sub]"...You should really..."[/sub][/color] It became really hard to even hear her as she tried, and failed, to continue speaking in a strong enough voice to understand. [color=red][sub][sub]"...try to not be so... [sub]aggressive....in...[sub]your[/sub]...."[/sub][/sub][/sub][/color] Even magically-enhanced hearing couldn't discern whether she simply finished her sentence in a really low voice or gave up, but with her face turning red as a beet and any semblance of confidence having evaporated on the spot, there was one thing that likely became apparent to anyone watching: 

Samantha had realized that she, too, was wearing a swimsuit.
