[She flips to her feet easily and nods, one hand rising to her chest. This was the same promise she'd made with Ryu and Fei Long, and the same one she'd asked of Yun and Yang. It wasn't unreasonable, it was entirely Marco being unreasonable.]

I promise that I know what I'm doing. It's the same agreement that I have with my training partners at home. But, I want you to understand something too. Don't treat me like a flower. All that'll do is make me angry.

And frankly? I want you to promise me the same thing you're asking. I may be human, but that doesn't mean I can't hurt you. Your world's Haki is like Chi in mine. I'm hardly a mere mortal.

[She puts an arm on his shoulder as she follows him.]

But I appreciate you giving me the trust. I know you don't trust easily.
