She brought her sword up and lightly ran the unedged side of the blade down Hokuto's back, almost caressing her with it. "My, my... aren't we a little overzealous?"

She moved the sword back up and let out a throaty chuckle, her crimson eyes intense upon Hokuto's. "Some things you... don't want to rush," she purred.
