[No! I don't wanna!] Akula complains as she turned her head away arms crossed as she sat inside Rosaline room where she was being held by her companion now turned Levi as Akula glared at Levi.

Said machine that has just taken a much smaller form gave the equivalent of a deadpan and exasperated look that his tiny face could make as he hovered just in front of the pouting kansen it has been a day now since she was grounded.

Rosaline having berated the little girl in nearly giving the former a heart attack even if she'd only started to realize how to be a mother after finding out that she was her daughter for reasons... unkown.

The fact she was a fog ship made it more confusing and absurd to believe in since Rosaline had faithfully served the navy and hadn't slept with any men as far as she can remember, which confused her.

Rosaline is deeply troubled by this fact... and since Akula could not even give her an answer as the little girl had said that as far as she could remember which was little since the little kansen has amnesia.

Which means she has no clue as to how and why Akula came to be her daughter which made it all the more confusing for the woman herself, though that's not to say that she oppose being her mother.

Rosaline refuses to just ignore or neglect her own child even if she never wanted once yet in the first... but fate works in mysterious woman and who is she to complain when she no control over fate.

Akula is both a blessing and a curse, like most children's of her she may be obedient but she can also be quite the troublemaker, being curious or reckless like any children would have in her age.

Rosaline didn't had the fine to be able to talk with her own daughter much since yesterday as she was distracted by the amounts of paperwork and the need to keep Akula being her daughter a secret.

No one... but her grandfather and some kansens in the base knew that Akula was her daughter... while Rosaline trust that her subordinates won't spread her secret she fear some couldn't be trusted.

Possible spies may even be hiding in her base and she refuse to let them know about Akula being her daughter as that will only give her more headaches than she could possibly handle... on her own.

Roslaine knows that others will even try to experiment her child if they ever find out that Akula was her daughter it would be a shocking revelation that will also ruin her reputation if they misunderstood and label her as a traitor.

Which would be bad not only for her or her family but to her own daughter Akula as well... she may had only known got her for a short while but that doesn't mean she'll allow anyone to use Akula as their own personal test subject.

That is not even mentioning the defense system that had been put in place within Akula herself if they ever trigger that defense mechanism then one can only imagine that destruction it'll create.

No doubt a disaster that Rosaline wishes to avoid for everyone's sake as whoever had created Akula and sent to her they'd made sure that should she ever be threatened... a defense mechanism will activate to erase the threat... thoroughly.

One can imagine what it would do if the defense mechanism hardwired or deeply ingrained within Akula activates, no one and I mean no one would be able to stop it... thats assuming Rosaline gained enough authority to deactivate it.

Based on what the Warmind had said to her regarding the authorities needed which involved finishing objectives she doesn't know where to to due to the cryptic message that she had left behind.
