Elora flinched a bit at the white creature's appearance. She wondered how a feline mammal was in a military base once she saw the little ball of fur hop on Antwon. It was really cute, and Elora worried for its safety once one of the scary soldiers ordered him to dispose of it. Thankfully Antwon had a heart and refused, if in an impolite manner. Zan scolded him for that, which wasn't that strange to her: he would be the type to be strict about authority. He had a point though: They all now knew what happens if you're not careful around your superiors. Her thoughts ran back to a certain somebody who learned that the hard way.
[i]Poor Ian. If only I could see him again.[/i]

And then, as if her wish was granted, she heard his voice, and Ian was once again among them. Elora clasped her hands together on her chest, her mouth agape. There was something about Ian that was different, even strange, and she did notice that Ian was missing an ear, but Elora was too distracted about her joy at seeing him alive to pay attention to it.

"I-Ian, I'm so glad you're alive. D-Did everything go well in the med-bay?" She wanted to ask him about Sigma, but she didn't want to put too much pressure on the recently wounded.

And then Sigma appeared, and placed a cake on the table. Elora was confused at first, but then she remembered that Sigma promised her and Serah something like that. But Elora didn't care about the sugary treat: she was more glad to see her friend again. However, it was then that she realized: Sigma wasn't herself. She didn't show much emotion when she greeted her, and Elora was frightened by that. 
[i]Maybe she's just taking her new role as squad leader seriously?[/i]

"Umm, thank you Sigma," she meekly responded to her. Her previous joy from seeing Ian disappeared like the setting sun. Elora didn't know what happened in the med-bay between the two of them, and that made her worried.
