Aeris: Ryoko is going to have nothing to do with this chap.
Disclimaer: I don't own FF7. Elora, Pink14, and Silent Moon belong to me. Kriel belongs to MercuryKnight.
A Memory Never Erased
As soon as Elora had made sure Kriel was alright, she made her way over to Pink14. The wolf was still laying on the ground the ground from when she had woken up. Elora bends down and feels along her back.
"How do you feel?" Elora asks.
"I won't be able to walk properly for a while."
Elora stands up and so does Pink. She whinces slightly, but stays up.
"I can't heal it. But it will heal on it's own. Go into the forest and stay there until we come. If you run into any monsters, use Diamond Dust."
Elora unhooks a red materia from her staff and puts it into Pink's headband. Pink nods and limps off. Elora watchs her until she gets out of sight. Elora then heads over to Red13. He didn't seem as bad as his sister, but the gash in his back had stained his fur a darker red becuase of the blood. Elora bends down and places her hand near his neck. She feels the blood from the wound and heals it. Red opens his eye nad looks at Elora. She smiles and stands up.
"How do you feel?"
"My neck and back hurts, but thankz."
Elora nods, smiling again.
"Follow your sister into the forest."
Red nods and walks off. They had yet to have a formal introudction. Maybe that will come soon. Elora lifts her head up to see Kriel follow after Red. Elora smiles softly and a red materia in her staff glows. He had changed somehow. Elora could feel it everytime she was near him. The pretence of an Anicent was within him, but how? There were only two Anicents left, Elora was sure. Well maybe not. Thier enemy, Sephiroth had the familar enegry of an Anicent, and that was an even greater mystery. Elora couldn't think for very long as she went over to Silent Moon. A green crystal was glowing slightly, but the magic it was soppuse to be for wasn't helping. Elora puts her hand on Silent and she groans softly, letting the girl know she has at least halfway awake.
"Your lucky. You only got halfway paraylzed, and it's soon going to be out of your system. Esuna is helping somewhat."
Silent growls at that and looks at Elora. Elora puts her arms under her stomache and helps her stand. She lets go and Silent stays standing. Both start walking over to the forest.
"Come on. It's going to take a while for it to competely disapper. Umm...here!"
Elora puts something near Silent's mouth. The panther takes it off her hand and chews it. She cringes when she swallows it. She makes a face and keeps walking, limping badly.
"That was awful! What was it?"
"Hyper." Elora answers.
"How is that going to help?"
Both keep walking towards the forest.
"To keep you from falling asleep until Esuna helps you fully recover."
Silent nods and twitchs her tail. Elora starts fiddling with her staff, then takes out a yellow orb. It glows and Elora points the way. As they walk, Silent notices a haunting look in Elora's now purple eyes. Silent limps over and rubs aganist her arm. The girl smiles and pets her head.
"It's amazing. When I first meet you, I wasn't in the least bit scared. Though I knew you could eat me. Now I'm terrified."
Silent gazes up at her friend and realization of that haunted look hits her. A strong sense of something going to go wrong was around her. Silent twitches her tail and looks up at the sky. Elora starts rummaging in her backpack and hears a muffled clank-clank. Her new Fairy Tale staff had had a few less materia slots then her other one so she stored them in her backpack. That is expect for the white materia. It was still on the ribbon in her hair and was always glowing slightly. Elora pulls some food out and as they reach the camp, she walks over to Kriel and gives him some. He nods his thanks and his gaze shifts to her elbows. Elora stiffens, knowing he's going to ask about the faint scars.
"What happened to your elbows?" He asks.
"I got attacked by the dragon in the Temple of the Anicents. My mother died protecting me."
Elora's eyes water up. Kriel stands up and hugs her. Elora's eyes change to blue as she starts crying. Elora then looks up at him as he whispers something to her. She closes her eyes and inches towards Kriel until his lips meet hers. When they break apart, Elora whirls and runs off. A couple hours later found Elora standing on a hill. Her eyes had dried up and were back to thier usual golden color. A determined look is set on her face. She turns around, but turns her head back as she hears somebody call out. She sees a whole gorup of people, more like an army. A few minutes later found Elora talking to Phire, Kriel's friend. She tells him to protect Kriel then turns and runs away as Kriel walks up. She didn't know how long it would be till she saw him again. Little did she know it wasn't going to be for a long while. The two wolves, the panther and the girl walk on until they come over a hill. Elora smiles and runs forward.
"Aeris!"
Aeris lifts her head up and smiles. She opens her arms and Elora runs into them, hugging her.
"I'm so happy to see you!" Elora says, looking up at Aeris.
Aeris smiles and ruffles Elora's hair.
"Same to you."
A couple hours later, close to dusk, found the whole group sitting around a campfire. It was finally time for formal introudctions. First off was Cloud Strife. He was the pericing blue eyed blonde haired male. His hair was spiky, he was wearing a purple outfit, and he carried a huge sword on his back, much like Elora did with her staff. Next was Tifa Lockehart. Her black hair fell midback and hair a red hairtie at the end. Her garnet red eyes are smiling at Elora. She's wearing a leather skin tight miniskirt and a midrift showing shirt. Elora returns her smile and looks over to the next person. Barret Wallace was his name. A dark skinned man. Elora tilts her head as she tried to sum up her thoughts about him. Nothing bad, but she thought he wasn't one you could become good friends with. Oh well, she would try. She shifts her gaze to the next person. The youngest member of the group, unincluding Elora and Silent. Yuffie Kusaitigri, ninja girl. Even after getting what she looked like from Silent, Elora was still shocked. She looked agile alright. Almost more so then Silent. Elora smiles at Yuffie and Yuffie returns it. Elora then switches over to the next person. Likely the oldest of the group, Cid Highwind. That was all Elora could tell about him, for he was mostly covered in shadows. Next was Vincent Valentine. He was the one that picked Elora by steel claws in the Forgotten Captial. Elora smiles at him and he nods in reponcse. Next was the red wolf, Red13, or Nanaki. He looked identical to his sister, expect for fur color and the roman numeral on the front leg. Elora was curious to know how both of them got it, but didn't ask. Next was Aeris, herself, Silent Moon, and Pink14. The last of the group was Cait Sith. A cat on top of a moogle. Elora thought it was very cute looking. Dusk falls and Elora looks over to Silent as she stands up and walks off. Elora excuses herself and walks after her. Elora stops when she sees Silent looking up at the moon. She smiles softly and sits down beside her. Both end up falling asleep there.
*Dream*
"Elora."
"Mother?"
The golden haired woman appears in front of Elora and the girl hugs her.
"You've finally gotten back with the group. That's good. But be prepared tomarrow."
Elora looks at her mother, her eye color shifting to green. Her mother smiles softly.
"A battle will take place where you will lose somebody close to you, then lose the trust of a few others."
Elora scuffs loudly. Three members of the group hadn't trusted her as of yet, so what would losing a couple more do? Her mother seemed to read her thoughts.
"Elora, listen to me. This is very important. Just because the three do not trust you know, they will later. Remember that and keep your love for them."
Elora's thoughts turn to the summon in her staff. The one with a bird. She hadn't figured out what it was yet, but she really wanted to. Her mother hugs her once more, then disappers, leaving Elora with a nightmare."
*End dream. Start nightmare*
A silouhette of a girl is seen as she stands in a doorway. In front of her is a monster that looks like a wall with arms and a head. The girl gasps outloud as the creature rams itself into a man. The man falls to the ground and the creature disappers. The girl runs forward and gets on her knees beside the man, sobbing loudly.
"Elora. Don't be sad for me." The man says weakly.
"Tell your mother I love her."
"No, poppa. Come back with me. Momma will be so lonely without you."
The man smiles at her and puts a hand up to her cheek.
"You'll be there for her and so will Iifalna. Remember that."
The girl nods and closes her eyes. The man smiles at her, then goes limp in her arms. The girl stands up blows a half hearted kiss, then turns and runs out of the temple. Tears blind her but she soon ends up facing a red dragon. This was the same one that had killed her mother and twice it had killed her. This time she was alone. It closes it's mouth on her arm and tries to pull her down. The girl whrils her staff around and tries to hit it's nose. When she succedds an icecle hits it's nose and it roars, letting her down. The girl turns and runs out of the room, holding her injured arm.
*End nightmare*
