The Chujo simply shoke her head at Ritsu.

"Ritsurin, if you lose control on my ship and hurt any of my crew, I will kill you, simple as that. There is no forgiveness when you take the life of your crewmates and you'd better learn to control yourself. You are the a Half-demon, don't make yourself a slave to it. I believe you've been going about the matter wrong, you cannot make yourself different by closing your eyes and wishing it so. You must accept that you are who you are and then, self-control will come. Fighting half of your blood by rituals, by seeking surgery, only aggitates the situation.

If you really want to kill the demon blood in you, we can take you to PNUgen after the mission is over to get you an injection, but until then you will learn meditation and sit through anger management sessions with me. " She folded her arms across her chest, again taking on the appearence of a concerned mother as she continued to speak.

"And Lavinia will be kept on board out of stasis until the mission is over. I trust that both of you will be on your best behavior now and if not, we'll see what happens. The reasoning for this is as such, I need every able bodied crew member working on this ship and that's why you two were reprimanded. It is not right to kick either of you off the ship for commiting an offense before I enstated my rules, so you can consider this as you and Lavinia's first and last warning. " She smoothed her hair back behind her ears again before refolding her arms across her chest.

"NOW, as for preparation for the Angel attack, keep on your guard and run hourly sweeps of the ship both night and day with live rounds and weapons. Make up a day shift and a night shift and rotate out guards in the shift every week. Also inform your sentries of any weaknesses you know of for Angels and if you ever dealt with them, Seraphim. I also want you to tell them that Angels can change their body structure and will try to infect you by changing their body's consistancy into the vecosity of thick mud. You must be prepared to board and attack the Angel Ships. You may go and establish the shifts as well as arm your sentries. I'll work out a time to meet with you and work on anger mangement and meditation with you tomorrow whenever you are off shift. Unless you have further questions you are dismissed."

Chiharu looked over to Aya as she patched the message from the 5th fleet officer through and she looked up at the screen. "Taii Ciraxis Tensykyn, with all due respect, please do not hail my ship and then tell me to cut my transmission and get moving on my mission. It's just rude. But thank you for your support. Chujo Ketsurui out." She cut the transmission before the Taii could reply again. She shoke her head again and looked to Aya and Arume, "Ladies, how long until we reach the corrdinates?"

Arume responded, "Five hours ma'am, and then we have to play a game of seek and destroy."

Chiharu offered her bridge officers a smile to let them know she wasn't mad at them and that everything was ok.

"Carry on."
