Kirlia picks up on this REALLY easily, and notifies Nathan.  "Ventus, STOP.  You're in enough trouble with the Rangers as it is.  And what makes you any better than him if you act the same way?  My problem, I'll deal with it.  If I need your help, I'll let you know.  Got it?"  There's a fire in his eyes as he says this, looking straight at Ventus.
