A Memory Never Erased
Three days have gone by and Elora is still captured. Well in her mind she wasn't captured, just isolated. She had been allowed to walk around the cave she was in and had quickly found out where she was. The Mythril Mines. She knew the name becuase her mother had once told her of a place where there was a snake gaurding a cave. This was that cave, for there was a gaint snake outside the entrance. And Elora still had yet to find an exit. This would be the day she would do just that. As she walks, with a slight limp in her leg, she comes across an opening she never saw before. Elora leans aganist the entrance as she looks at this new area, resting her leg. The injury had healed, mostly. It still would hurt, if walked on for an extended period of time.
"I want out of this cave." Elora whispers.
She stands up and walks further into the new area. She looks over the area and finds two other doorways. One was within walking distance. The other on a cliff. The one on the cliff had to be climbed to get too, but Elora didn't care. She slowly starts climbing the vine. When she reachs the top, she sits on the ground for a few minutes, resting. When her leg stops throbing, she gets up and walks through the door way. She's meet with darkness and bitter cold when she finally stops. This was when she realized she was out of the cave. She gives a slight smile and starts walking. The staff on her back glimmers in the moonlight as she stops walking.
"Where am I?" Elora whispers.
She had never been further out then the Bone Village and had no clue where she was. She starts up her walk again and looks around. After a while, she spots what looks like a fort, with a beatiful bird on the top. Elora walks closer to the fort to try and get a closer look at the bird. It looked like a pheniox, or an eagle. Elora walks inside the fort and sees another rope. She sighs and climbs up it. Once she gets to the top, she sighs again as she sees one more rope. She climbs up it and looks around. She sees a few people and some stairs. Her heart sinks and she walks over to a man.
"Excuse me." She mumurs to get his attetion.
The man turns to look at her and smiles.
"What do you need?" He asks.
"A place to stay and some food." Elora answers.
The man smiles again and leads her to another rope. He climbs down and Elora follows, vaugely wondering how many more ropes she will have to climb. When Elora lands and stands up, she notices four beds in a row.
"You may sleep here tonight, free of charge."
Elora's eyes light up.
"I can? Oh thank you!"
The man smiles and climbs back up the rope. Elora walks over to the bed in the far corner and takes her staff off of her back. She lays it down on the ground beside her and lays down on the bed. She instantly falls asleep, and for once in three days, sleeps soudly. As she sleeps, a black panther walks into the fort. She looks beaten up and is bleeding in a few places. As she walks, she sways and falls to her side. Her golden eyes close and the collar around her neck cracks. In the morning, Elora wakes up to much commotion upstairs. She sits up and stretchs. She felt a lot better and she didn't even feel sick anymore. She reachs over the side of the bed and grabs her staff. She stands up and puts it in it's case on her back. She gets a confused look on her face as the commotion gets louder. She climbs up the rope and stands up at the top. She sees the man from last night, but she also sees a couple of other people she hadn't seen the night before. She walks up behind them and stands up on her tipy toes to see over thier shoulders. She huffs in slight angier when she finds she can't see a thing.
"Excuse me. What's going on?" Elora asks.
A man, different from the one last night turns to her.
"A panther turned up down below and looked about ready to attack when it woke up."
Elora's golden eyes widen when the news sinks in. The man takes a closer look at her and nods.
"What?" Elora asks with caution.
"You have the same color eyes as that panther."
"Let me see it!"
The crowd parts to let Elora see the panther. Her eyes widen again and she runs forward, ignoring her leg. She gets down beside her and holds the panther's head in her arms.
"Silent? Silent! Wake up!" Elora cries.
The panther twitchs her tail and utters a low groan. Elora hugs her panther friend around the neck and a green orb in her staff glows softly. The wounds on the panther's body heals and she opens her eyes.
"Elora?" She asks.
Elora nods and pulls back. The crowd looks at Elora with confusion and both cat and girl stand up.
"Everyone. My name is Elora Day and this is my friend Silent Moon. I know she looks vicious, but she's actually quite tame. I have humbly asked for food and a place to sleep. And I've gotten one of the things I needed. The thing I need now is some food for me and my friend. Would anyone like to spare some?"
The crowd nods happily and goes off to get some food. Elora sighs and Silent smiles. The golden-eyed girl turns to her panther friend and smiles.
"So, what happened?" Elora asks.
Aeris: Tell us and we'll remove it. Don't be shy. It's not going to hurt our feelings.
Discliamer: We don't own FF7.
