It's cute to think she's being honorable at all, though - the word means almost nothing to her. Really, she just wants to avoid getting scolded by her boss. That, and even Maria has a grasp of common sense, however tenuous; it wouldn't be good to get jumped by the police in broad daylight. She could always kill them all, she's sure, but it would be a lot of trouble, and then she'd definitely get cussed out.
Regardless, she pauses from her inspection of the alleyway to turn to Kenshin once he asks for introductions - a request that's met with a melodramatic sigh. ]
Eehh, really? But I'm all fired up. You Japanese are so formal! [ whatcha gonna do. It seems like she'll listen, at least; she takes off the hat, shaking her hair loose. ] I guess it'd be good for you to know my name, amigo! I'm Maria Barcelito! And...
[ in a flash, she's thrown back the haori, unsheathing both swords and holding them before her - no wakizashi, both katana. ] This here's Murasamia, and this is Kochite! We came here to kill you, Hitokiri Battousai! Get excited!
