H'oh, is that so? [Ace, anticipating Selphie, gestured ever so slightly with his pinky finger. A doorway opened in the flames, so she could pass. That didn't mean it wasn't ever-present as a reminder to the Navy, though. The moment Selphie would pass onto their side, it would represent the start of the fight again. Ace would curl his hands in and draw all the flames back into his body, skin tinted orange from the heat all about them.]

You heard her, Ikki.

[At that, Ace's fingertips and palms began to turn green, glowing brighter than any of the flames he'd brought up before.]

We'll take a stroll through the square and see if we know anybody. Then, we'll work on supplies. Got it?
