[b]Katsumi, in a Ring of Swords with Roxy and Yuji[/b]

Okay, this had thrown her off for just a minute. But only a minute. She wasn't going to let it shake her, nothing shook her! Katsumi raised an eyebrow for a moment as she watched the boy who had... fell from the sky somehow get up and ask his questions. She folded her arms once more, and her grin returned in full force. Asking about monsters, huh? She only had one response for that kind of talk.

"Monsters, huh?" said Katsumi, "There's no need to worry. If there were any monsters, I, the Great Nomura Katsumi of Team Zyguard, would have destroyed them effortlessly! They're no match for me!"

Katsumi's native language was Japanese, so she understood the boy perfectly even without the aid of Zyguard translation devices. Though she had to wonder why he had just jumped through a portal with no indication of where it went. That was a pretty strange choice, even she admitted that. On the other hand, he had a guitar, so that redeemed him slightly in her eyes. "And it looks like you're my business too. But first, I still need to take down some jackasses who're trying to hurt innocent people. That's the Team Zyguard way! That's [i]my[/i] way!"

[b]Anno, with Moerin and Raineh[/b]

Anno decided that being patient and not questioning Rain's bizarre choice of outfit was the best choice. She didn't want to be rude to her friend or anything, regardless of how questionable her choice of clothing was. Really, it was... it was very very weird. Instead, she remained beside Moe and waited... and then Rain was off incredibly quickly without running. Anno barely had time to wonder just what was going on before she was off.

"Wh-wha...?"

And then Moe grabbed her arm, pulling her along in a bid to catch up to Rain. Anno stumbled as she tried to run with her taller friend, but... it wasn't working very well. The poor girl panted and struggled to keep her feet under her desperately as she was half-dragged with with Moe after Rain. While she wasn't completely unathletic(fencing was fun! She liked fencing!), running was... not her strongsuit. Not at all. Her skirt fluttered about as she tried to keep running until finally, Rain stopped, and so did Moe.

Anno nearly fell over.

"Haah... haaah... M-Moe... d-dragged..." Anno was kind of tired out from her desperate attempt to keep up. "Th-that was too fast!"
