The mission had a simple premise. She was following up on a mission she had had many months earlier almost an entire year had passed in fact since she had partaken inside the mission that started this. Yet this time things were different as Aina had grown stronger as had the guards guarding the place she had infiltrated. The first had died with little effort or noise as her dagger made its way through their alien neck and the blood had trickled out instead of spraying all over the ground. ‘Quick and clean’ was the phrase she kept telling herself as she made her way into the moderately sized royal spaceship. It was not quite as large as other cruisers but this one was most certainly one of a wealthier target than any before her. The second guard had come around a corner and she had to toss her dagger and nailed the man through his voice box with the blade. With a flick of her wrist she would move in and slice out his artery causing him to begin bleeding out.
Working on a door panel she opened up the door and she looked inside. Counting she saw twenty four men, women and children with stark white hair and red eyes. It was eerie to see but she realized just why she had been sent on this mission to kill the slavers. She was a Kagami Saiyan half breed. This was a mission to save her own people from a life of near certain back breaking servitude and death. Right as she was going to say something one of them pointed behind her and yelled out inside the language of the Kagami. In an instant her goddess translated it and she ducked as a ki blast from a ki gun sailed over her head. Spinning she slammed her fist into the man’s chest sending him flying into a nearby bulkhead.
“Come on everyone we are leaving this place and setting you all free…”
Unknown to her that Lhinith had translated every word before even her voice box could say the words and she spoke the words in fluent Kagami. Guiding them she managed to get to the entrance of the ship when the alarms began to go off. Getting the last of the Kagami off the ship she felt the ship take off into the air and instantly take off toward another planet. Toppling forward onto the ground Aina would pick herself up and look up at the sky as she stood there and depressed the transmitter to the location of the refugee’s. Handing it to one of those that appeared in charge.
“Hold onto this. The people that come will help you all. Go with the Goddess.”
Bowing her head she would release her ki and take off into the sky to a quiet location as she stopped and slumped onto a stone as she felt exhausted from the mission. It was as she sat there that the emptiness of the Yunzabit Highlands swept over her. In the far distance she heard the soft whir of the BBA transports coming to pick up the refugee’s. This fact warmed her heart as that meant she had completed a mission successfully and that more of her mother and now her own people where free. She knew though it would take a lot more than single hit and runs while on Earth to set free her people. Someday she would pass her mother. She would surpass her and she would do as the man she had inadvertently shared memories with wanted originally. She was going to free her people from the chains of slavery no matter where that slavery was occurring inside the galaxy.

[PL: 2,000,]
Levlidian burst through the chilled air at a higher rate than he'd usually contract from himself, a broad grin depicted his lips as he swept low. There was no notion as to why he possessed such a good mood. A power level swam into his mind and again, his curious nature overwhelmed him directing the soul on wards, though his direction was diverted by a rough, metallic transport to which he veered dangerously close to and downwards to the ground. His chest had grazed the surface, damn drivers he cursed and rotated in mid air. The descent lead him closer to a recent goal of his unbeknownst to the Saiyan.
Rage swelled and he looked to where he was directed before he struck the floor with incredible force, knees bent and knuckles digging into the rough floor, he rose with one eye sealed in pain to the sudden emergency landing.
"Blast," he cursed and rose a hand to his partly torn Gi, switching on his heel, the chocolate haired Saiyan was divulged upon his sight to witness the source of energy he'd felt. Parting the closed eye to reveal a pair of dark orbs resonating with a tricksters amusement. This investigation merited no real knowledge besides an overall status on who this was. Oddly, her species smelt familiar but he lowered his arms from his vague injuries.
"An odd place to simply rest," he uttered, Levlidian's pointed features betrayed a level of enjoyment from obvious questions, it was worth making nore of as many fighters as he could muster. How long had it been since he'd simply had a conversation with another, without attempting to kill them, his thoughts flowed as they would whilst the wind tackled his mane and its spikey nature sweeping it about his forehead and cheek.

[PL: 13,190 - Light Weights are on, reduction to 9892]
How long had it been since Hinawa last felt the aura of a fellow being this close? Months, or years? She didn't know, but she knew that it wasn't long enough. She had no desire at all to return to a world full of beings more powerful than her that were all solely focused on fighting and getting stronger... It was a world she had been a part of, until the disappearance of her master and nearly dying more than once had shown her what a fool she really was. But maybe this power signature had something to do with the odd object moving through the skies she had seen some time ago...? And then, another energy signature came up, and this one caused the Zoanthrope to scamper out from her makeshift shelter inside of a natural cave with a tense expression on her face.
That feeling, all of her hairs standing on end... She had only felt this kind of energy once before, and even then, it had only been an 'image' of it. This was undoubtedly the aggressive, primitive and powerful aura of a Saiyan! It didn't feel as overwhelming as her master, but still... With a deep sigh, Hinawa released her own Ki, materializing a fox tail and ears on her body, as she shot up into the sky to fly towards the two power signatures as fast as she could - and having to dodge some odd transport craft on the way. Why were so many people up here in the far north all of the sudden?! And they could really use some lessons in how to fly properly without nearly ramming people out of the sky!
Two figures came into view - a woman with white hair, and a man with black hair... Of course, that man was the one giving off the Saiyan aura. With supernatural grace, the kitsune flipped through the air only to land softly on the cold, frozen ground near the other two, measuring up the Saiyan with a questioning look. She doubted that he'd just randomly attack, but... You never knew with those savages. If worst came to pass, she could still throw down the detachable sleeves and boots she was wearing - they were specially weighted to impede movement, and while she had not used them for actual training in weeks at least, she had simply grown so used to wearing them that she still did it either way.
"Well, this is unexpected. Usually nobody comes up here into the cold." Crossing her arms under her chest, the kitsune gave them both a questioning look. Her eyes shone slightly red as she did so, a side-effect of using her animal-like abilities to sense their Ki signatures. Her tail swished through the air behind her, slightly uneasy. "Hope you don't mind me asking, but what brings you up here?" While she was trying to be polite - trying being the key phrase - she couldn't help but sound weary of them both. The woman seemed more powerful than Hinawa herself... And she had no desire to find out for sure.

Aina’s gaze was down as her scouter went off about a power approaching the area. Glancing at it she would notice the direction and strength before pressing the button to turn off the scouter and to have it retract so that it was not blocking her face. Looking up to the figure’s face as she saw him land inside the snow in front of her. It was not but a short time later that she felt another signature come flying in and land behind the Saiyan. Looking over at the feminine figure she felt Lhinith nibble at the back of her mind as she blinked to push the goddess back into her mind. Turning her ruby colored eyes back toward the saiyan she would answer him before the female zoan.
“Just finished up killing some slavers and rescuing their captives. So that is why I am here resting. Easy to say after having to fight through about half a dozen of them. “
She had answered the both of them as she stood slowly from her seated position. Grabbing the pack of cigarettes out of her arm pocket just below her badge of the BBA would give the pair a glimpse of the badge inside the moonlight as she lit the cigarette in a single concentrated burst of ki. Taking a light drag of the cigarette she glanced back and forth between the pair.
“You know just to ease the air here between us I will introduce myself. Seargent Aina of the Blue Banner Army. It is a pleasure to meet the both of you.”
The others could easily tell that this was a obviously rehearsed line that Aina just recited as it seemed nearly robotic in delivery and execution. Glancing back and forth between them she would give a soft smile toward the kitsune as one of her best friends growing up on the streets had been a zoan. So she had something of a soft spot for others like her old friend.

Another large power cascaded towards them and Levlidian barely turnd to take note until they had confirmed their arrival. The young Saiyan turned in such a way that he was side on with the two women allowing for easy glances between them as each spoke in turn, tilting his head and raising his arms to fold in a weft of cloth and flesh, he barely felt the cold against his weathered flesh. Snow rolled behind his heel as he turned and he'd absorb each word they uttered. Deep, obsidian orbs fix upon the new comer and trail from head to foot, another one that stood with a greater energy signature than his; excellent another he could investigate to gain a little bit of knowledge.
"I was passing by and noticed this woman's energy signature, my curiosity got the better of me and thus, here I am," the oddity about his barrow toned voice was the poisonous edge, Levlidian was outwardly arrogant wearing his bravado as equally like a badge as Aina wore hers. This noted badge of hers, however, did not go unnoticed, with his stolen attention rounding to face the shining image, the Saiyan cocked a brow.
"BBA?" he asked quizically, "What would that stand for, clearly some form of justice but you've clearly been ridding this world of pathetic weaklings; I can respect that-" her introduction came as a shock, however, thrown he simply frowned and clenched his jaw. Why would she want to know his name? What use was that to a Warrior? "-My name isLevlidian," he answered in a blunt, defensive tone.

This Saiyan was so... predictable. The energy signature of this woman was enough to attract his kind... She couldn't banish the sheer disdain for his kind from her red eyes as she kept them mostly fixated onto him. She quite enjoyed learning that yet more slavers had gotten taken out - her former master had been a slave once, after all - so at least this woman seemed respectable and nice enough. Hinawa bowed her head slightly towards her as she introduced herself, and after the Saiyan did the same, she figured she'd also do it.
"My name is Hinawa Hyoukai. Good on you to take out some slavers. I noticed your auras and figured I'd take a look." With a short, appreciative smile, something suddenly clicked inside of Hinawa's head. White hair, red eyes... really, it was obvious now that she thought about it. This woman was like her master, which was why Hinawa had even noticed her energy signature in the first place! She had managed to successfully ignore way more powerful auras in the past, after all. Her red eyes widened slightly.
"Wait... are you a Kagami?" asking with actual curiosity in her voice, the enmity and accusatory tone had vanished from Hinawa's voice, now actually sounding a bit interested. Maybe she'd finally find out what became of her old master... Not that she cared too much about him as a person - he had not been a 'good man', after all - but it would give her some closure on that chapter of her life. Maybe she could finally stop living out in the wilderness, all alone, if she found some peace of mind. Hinawa relaxed her stance slightly, her muscles losing their tension - she had little fear right now of getting suddenly sucker-punched, the rude Saiyan seemed to be sociable, for the standards of his kind. And well, if he DID start trouble, there were two women here that were both perfectly capable of kicking his behind to the moon and back.
"Blue Banner Army... never heard of it, either." shrugging slightly, Hinawa felt as if she SHOULD know about the BBA... But even when she had still been part of society, she had not exactly been interested in politics... But she would've noticed if aliens had taken over the Earth, right? ... No, no she would not have noticed. That realization was almost a bit scary, really - Hinawa had no doubts about herself and that she was utterly self-absorbed, but getting confronted by it so openly was still an unpleasant experience.

As Levlidian gave his reasoning as to why he had arrived Aina could not but internally scoff and roll her eyes a little bit. Despite her own mixed heritage she still had a disdain for saiyans. Yet when the times like this came for her to be diplomatic in the easiest of senses she would do it. To her the bravado and the outward arrogance of a lot of the saiyans had turned her off to the culture more than the ones that had tried to kill her during the short invasion of Earth. That and Emer’s blood ran through her veins after the ceremony he had helped her to strengthen her bond with Lhinith. Those memories were still had to separate away from the other ones.
“Stands for the Blue Banner Army. Also know as the army of Earth Defense. Led by President Virtual Poi we are the line of defense against all aggression on the Planet Earth and her inhabitants.”
She had not always felt this way about the Blue Banner Army but the time working with them. Training with the soldiers. And living with them had made her come to terms with what they did in West City had been a necessary evil. The Earth Military had become bloated and over politicized. Yet something she was not expecting was when the Kitsune looked at her and asked her point blank if she was a Kagami. This brought a smile onto her face.
“Half Kagami but enough that I have all the features of my mother and not my father. Of that I am thankful to be honest. Can barely stand being around my father’s people most of the time anyways.”
Shifting her weight she looked back and forth at the other two. Her overall form relaxed but weighted down which would be easy for the others to see as she had sunk a small bit into the snow as she had been standing there just cause of the sheer amount of weight that she had upon herself. The few visible knives upon her person just out her arms reach as she crossed them in front of her and even with the smile she seemed to be keeping a wary eye on both of the others near her.

The outburst caused his brow to rise in wonder to this 'Kagami', what on Earth was this? The snow settled easily about his resting form, the cold breeze picking up to a gentle swim of air and courting his mane to obscure his visage in part. These two seemed powerful yet so very delicate, it was an impossible notion he was unaware of could possibly occur. Still, he fended the desire to bluntly word his observations and fluttered his gaze between the pair.
Taking in their forms, their weapons, styles and frame, it was a short smirk that joined his complexion and bloomed a further notion of obscure malevolence. Yes, they were strong but not orientated as he was towards combat. his heavy, stocky but partially short form pressed against the Gi as it fluttered towards the flowing breeze, Levlidian resembled a typical beserker yet his words would herald a modicum of intelligence unheard of in his people, though, it was truly a betrayal to the colder logic he'd house.
"What is a Kagami, it sounds edible," not the wisest joke to lean upon and yet with a flex of his back, a crack filled the air. No, not wise at all but twas not a depiction that followed a Saiyan until later years, even then it was wisdom in battle that frequented the stereo type. "Who were your Father's people, you hardly both seem like combatants at all despite the attire; had I not the ability to observe otherwise, I'd had depicted you both as little more than lost souls,"
He adjusted his stance, boots rising and falling to the weight of the falling snow and a quiver followed to the cold, it came mostly from muscle memory that true conscious choice and his brow sank to the developing conversation.

Protectors of Earth? Well, those guys seemed like an alright bunch in that case. Really, if she was still a fighter, maybe she'd even think about joining up with such an organization - but really, in her current state, the kitsune wouldn't be of any help to anyone, really. And she really was Kagami - or, at least, half of one. Maybe someone more familiar with her people would've noticed right away that she was a half-blood, but Hinawa had met exactly ONE other Kagami before - and Emer wasn't exactly what you'd call the usual Kagami, even if you didn't notice the missing arm and horrible scars.
The fox girl couldn't help but groan at the Saiyan's idiocy. Why was he so full of himself?! Maybe she should just drop those weights on her arms and legs and beat some sense into him...!
No, don't think that. You've left that behind, remember? Closing her red eyes for a moment to take a deep breath, they actually switched back over to their natural blue color - she had no need to keep tabs on the power of those two. This woman was a bit like her - or she had eaten twenty cakes before killing those slavers - considering how she was sinking a bit lower into the snow. Hinawa was leaving deeper marks in it than one would expect from someone of her stature too, but not nearly as much as Aina.
"My old master was a Kagami - I've never met any besides him. And as for your question, Saiyan..." The fox looked over at the monkey-man, narrowing her eyes slightly. She wouldn't even honor this man with calling him by his name - she'd just call him exactly what he acted like, a perfect image of what people thought of Saiyans. A living stereotype. "I was a martial artist once. Studied under my master Emer - not for long, and he wouldn't appreciate me calling him master, but there you go. I hope that satisfies your curiosity?" A bit flippant, the girl blew some stray hairs out of her face. Months spent in this frozen wasteland had hardened her to the cold, but even without that, as a fox Zoanthrope, she had always been relatively resistant to normal cold weather. Still, she could go for some hot tea or coffee right now. Meeting two people from civilization suddenly woke some memories of the commodities of living among other people. With a look back at Aina, she couldn't help but give a bit of a smile - entertaining this Saiyan's curiosity couldn't be fun for either of them, right?

“A Kagami is a race of people conquered by the saiyans but instead of killing them they allowed the Kagami to live as slaves to them. Fulfilling their every desire. Be it physical labor, menial tasks in the home or being the canon fodder that not even the low class saiyans paid to minds about… We were taken and driven near to extinction til the saiyans decided they would prefer us to do all your cleaning and raising of young so that they would not have to inside the elite households. So they use us as punching dummies and objects for parties….”
Her words were twinged with anger as she spoke them turning to look over at Levlidian. It would appear that Aina was a little steamed that a Saiyan would not know about his own races deplorable treatment of her own people, but then again she had the memories of two slaves and then her own memories within her head so her outburst was a culmination of all those thoughts. Yet her murderous thoughts where reigned in as Hinawa mentioned Emer. In a flood she felt a few memories come flooding back of the other Kagami training the kitsune for only a short while.
“I… should of known you… Emer helped me out and transferred his memories to me when he helped me get in touch with Lhinith. Most of which I wish I could not remember. Though I must give him credit as he had some memories from my mother that I actually am thankful for. Otherwise I would not know who my father was or the type of man he was… As for my fathers people…”
She turned her gaze toward the saiyan as sherolled her own neck making a similar cracking noise and grinned at him her own toothy saiyan like grin. Her hands rested on several weighted sacks which she unzipped off her uniform causing them to fall onto the snow in front of herself.
“Well my father was an elite of the elite my mother his dutiful servant and assassin. My father was one of the members of the Saiyan Royal Council before his death at the hands of Arcosian like treachery from his own flesh. So you ask yes my father was a Saiyan so now you know my contempt for the saiyan people as a whole…”
With the weights off her body Aina’s own ki would be spiraling around herself slowly bringing her power up to its maximum. She was not trying to hold anything back as she looked right at him.

The pair seemed to be heralding a racist notion each for his people, a grim smile replacing the arrogant one and his own aura burst about him as if taking the sudden increase as a threat, the air about him distorted as though a large flame had ignited but he was dwarfed by the apparent part Saiyan. Fending off his desire to assault the greater power as a means of defence, the young Saiyan mimicked the savage neck crack. Cold air whipped around him, a deep hum resonated as his adjustment caused the molecules to vibrate and thus creating a subtle heat. This was looking to go down hill quickly, typical, he actually stopped to acquire some information and now it seemed combat might actually come of a social visit.
"I am a Saiyan Elite, I was seen as a threat due to my insubordination since I disagreed with a lot of the notions of my people," Levlidian was careful not to mention it was in fact their requirements and history more than politics. He spoke to both women, each as dismissive of him and racist as the next but there was no intimidation shown, he would not allow them to see that he was indeed aware he was in trouble, "I care very little for any aspects of a person that refer to me as an obvious problem child due to my race when I myself have done nothing; whilst respect is earned I would have assumed someone who abhors my heritage wouldn't emulate their social interactions,"
The Saiyans intelligence breached the surface, was he trying to defuse this situation? probably, his life was being threatened and he saw no survivability if they chose to attack and so his bonus power gained by recovery was a mute point.
"I know Saiyan treachery well, my own Father preferred to kill me rather than raise me simple because I argued his points. I, however, only hold him accountable for his actions not the rest of the race. Have your opinions and I've hardly helped the stereotype, but I will not act as anything but myself towards others. It is dishonest and dishonourable,"
The ruse was summoned from his intent to live, malevolence snaked its way into his brow as he glared between the pair and his brutality reigned mostly in his physical form and stance. Yes, he was betraying the idea that he was no hero, Levlidian cared little for anything beyond his own power but his argument swam as though he was at least one to be reasoned with; which was a lie.
"Whilst I admire combat and revel in the chance to fight you both, I do not wish to die, not here, not before I develop a means to actually defend myself and exceed you all,"

Emer's memories. Well, that was one bombshell she had not expected to get dropped onto her today. Looking entirely surprised, Hinawa lowered her crossed arms, looking at Aina in complete surprise. She not only knew him, but... she carried part of him? And what was more, she was half-Saiyan - and clearly despised them regardless. Yes, those wannabe warriors were nothing but cruel monsters hiding behind pride and honor... Though oddly enough, the Saiyan present seemed to agree on that. Now that was ANOTHER thing she had not seen coming. Shaking her head slightly, the Zoanthrope took a step away from the two who were releasing their auras up to full. Those were some truly terrifying auras... or well, they would be. Aina's aura was still smaller than Emer's, even without the weights, and the Saiyan would've been easily able to crush her before her training - but not after.
"Hey, relax. I said I USED to be a martial artist, I don't fight anymore." Waving one of her hands dismissively, the Zoanthrope actually yawned. At first she had wanted to kick this guy's ass, but now, she felt like SHE was the asshole, and that really got rid of her anger quickly. Being like the kind of people you look down on was hypocritical to the highest degree, so she aimed to correct that. "Aina, if you've got Emer's memories... then I guess that means he's really gone this time, huh?"
With an oddly sad smile, Hinawa sighed and folded her hands behind her head now, still trying not to be worried by the two raised, battle-ready auras they were obviously clad in. Yeah, this weather was probably not helping the moods of any of them - it began to snow more heavily now, as if the weather itself was offended at their auras driving away some of the falling snow.
"If you two want to throw down, feel free. Just don't get me mixed up in it, kay? I'm human, I don't have a hunger for battle." Hopefully her words would help to make sure nobody would have to pick their teeth up from the ground in the near future. So this Saiyan wanted to fight her... In a way, she was almost flattered. This was about as romantic as she assumed their people got, but Levlidian wasn't exactly her type. Too burly, too many muscles. Sadly, martial artists without muscles were rare, and normal people were too boring to hang out with. That was the entire reason for her exile, after all - how utterly bored she was with normal life AND martial arts, without a goal to follow.
"And Levlidian, feel free to surpass me any time you want." For a moment, Hinawa was actually friendly, and had an honest, friendly smile... Which then turned into a slightly mean smirk, because she just could NOT keep her mouth shut. "...If you can, that is."

"So you are one of the smarter saiyans then... One that does not follow their stupid fighting instinct with every single thought and movement of your life. Then I have no quarrel with you so long as you do not start anything..."
Aina spoke softly as she calmed down her ki and looked at the Saiyan man before her. She listened to how his father betrayed him and tried to kill him. She had stories from her half sister how their uncle had come along and tried to kill her repeatably over the years. Sending people to try to kill her, and then finally attempting it personally. That would be the last mistake that man made as her sister went Super Saiyan and slaughtered him and his men for what they did that day.
"I will not stain this land with the blood of innocent people. I just saved fifteen innocent lives today I will not change my tally toward the negative by attempting to or taking your life Levlidian."
Aina turned to look at Hinawa. When she mentioned him being gone for good she shrugged.
"I doubt he is gone forever... Just the caves within which I used to meet him are empty and his bandages no longer held blood upon them when last I helped him to change them. Knowing him as I do from his memories and those of my mother he is off training himself. Getting ready. Cause someday he feels that the Kagami will rise and will free themselves."
Aina would smirk at the mention of fighting but she did not really care to spar in the moment. She would gladly do it but them again she would have to slip her weights back on it would actually be a much more fair fight between herself and Levlidian.
"You know Miss Hinawa I have an idea of a few things that Emer had trained you in. As for when he gave me his memories lets just say he knew how to do the ceremony so that I could actually contact my goddess. In order to do it he needed to share blood in order to quell my mind to keep it from going insane when the ceremony pushed me near the edge of pain I could handle... Though I would love to have a spar with you sometime. Either of you... Mostly cause I want to see if my sisters training would actually work in a fight."

Levlidian glanced between the two and his lips bloomed into more than his usual smirk, he unleashed a loud, booming laugh and his orbs fixed to Hinawa at first. The depth of his aura slowly decreased till it fluttered out of existence entirely whilst he laughed, the air calmed then ceased its overall assault upon the Saiyan. At his boots heel, the vortex formulating against the opposite flowing air currents descended back into the thin sweep this breeze provided to create a blanket of snow.
These two interested him, both were powerful there was nothing denying that and both seemed positive to his challenge. They even met the young Saiyan with one of their own each. Densing that the moment was diffused, the intellect he boasted took heed and was swallowed by the bravado as he uttered to Hinawa; "Challenge accepted, I'll surpass you both though tell me, why is there so much concern for this chap you both seem to know. Clearly they are capable as a Warrior,"
With an exhale, the beast flexed his form against the cold, freeing the joints to warm themselves and lowering his arms into a less aggressive pose. Indeed, Hinawa had drawn this conversation back onto the roots of intrigue and for that, he silently thanked her within his mind. Had they fought now, levlidian was sure he'd die and eradicate all of his hard work before he could express it, in his own twisted way.
"If he hides, he has a reason unless he is a coward-" allowing the observation to settle, Levlidian laughed again; "-but I doubt that,"
As amused as he was, the rough, feral orbs of obsidian which was the Saiyan's eyes fix to Hinawa intently, another study fell underway, "I do not understand why you would stop, this person worked to push you as far as you have come, is it not disrespectful to cease?" Quizzically he spoke, mostly to conjure a response that might press this one to uptake it again as he goaded, "I don't want our future fight to be an easy one, if you slack, I might actually defeat you. Which would be a shame, I'm looking for powerful rivals and apparently-" looking to Aina he'd eye her from head to foot; this betrayal of her half-breed self intrigued him almost as much as Hinawa's challenge; "So is she,"

"Goddess...? Sorry, but I don't know too much about the Kagami. But I'm glad to hear that he's probably still out there, working on his goal." Hinawa was a bit confused at the described ritual - she had never heard of 'goddesses' within the Kagami, but it was far from her to doubt someone who knew her old master. It was already rare enough to meet such a person in the first place, and thankfully, everyone seemed to calm down enough to have a civil conversation again without any punches being thrown. Just that they were both really putting her on the spot with their questions, and she couldn't help but blush a bit in embarrassment.
"I doubt you'd get much out of fighting me, Aina - and please, just call me Hinawa. Feels weird when people are more polite to me than I am to them." Looking between the two, Hinawa sighed. "Really, I have no idea why I'm worried about Emer. I didn't know him very well, and I think the only thing I want to thank him for is actually disappearing from my life, I guess. I was... different, a few months ago. In your memories, that hatred I had back then... When I finally wasn't concentrating on it, I was able to let go of it." With a bit of a smirk, Hinawa released a short burst of her Aura - mostly to blow the snow away that was by now collecting on her ears and tail. They were more sensitive to the cold than the rest of her body. Her Ki was harmonious, calm even - no negative emotion was within it.
"But well, I think you're right about one thing, Levlidian. I'd waste the training Emer gave me if I never fought again, I suppose. But what am I supposed to fight for? Just for the sake of fighting?" With a shrug, Hinawa let a spark of blue Ki that looked almost like a flame dance between her fingers, making it veer off into the air above them and disappear in the snow. "I'm just not wired that way, I guess. If I'm pissed, yeah I can fight, but right now, I don't really feel like it. Strength without purpose is meaningless. What do you two fight for?"
