Surely it's not...

Once the door closed behind Sam and Ichigo, the other Valkyries stood there in silence for a few seconds. It was Zero Three who came back to her senses first. She turned to face the others, clapping her hands once as she spoke with a smile.

"Alright then! I guess we're free to relax until it's time for departure." She said. "There is no need to linger around here so… everyone's dismissed!"

The others stared at her for a while, their eyes half open. Faced with such looks the young Valkyrie couldn't help but take a step back.

"W-what!? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Well, personally, I don't like how you keep talking as if you're our superior." Triska said with a sigh, twirling a few strands of her dark blue hair around her fingers.

"I mean, we know you're Doctor's personal Valkyrie and all." Venti added with a wry smile. "But that just means you're his bodyguard, right? What makes you think you have the right to order us around?"
