Summary: Elsa has completed the mission, but the pair has changed each other. Can they go back to the way they were before or is the change permanent?


"Do you want to talk about what happened today?" Aren asked again.

"What is there to talk about? I can't lie to her and I have no idea why I can't," Elsa felt like her head weighed a hundred pounds and her neck couldn't hold it up anymore. She dropped her head into her hands.

"Then you know what you need to do just stay away from her as much as possible," Aren answered.

"How, I'm on a ship with her and I have to deliver three meals a day to her. Also I don't want to stay away from her. I want nothing more than to go into that room, curl up next to her and pull her close," the words sounded so strange coming out of her mouth, but they were so true.

"Do you think this has something to do with the opposing marks on your arms?" Aren asked.

"I have no idea, but it is the only plausible explanation. The other thing is why I was able to lie when she was around with other people, but alone I can't," Elsa couldn't believe something like this could happen in the real world. "Do you think I should have you activate measure thirty two?"

"Absolutely not," Aren's lack of hesitation and steadfast loyalty was encouraging, but Elsa wouldn't have brought it up if the thought hadn't crossed her mind already. If her ability to make emotionally competent decisions is ever compromised then, measure thirty two is Aren taking complete control of the ship and returning them to Elysium.

"I'm going to go to bed. What is Anna doing right now?" Elsa asked

"She is curled up on the bed and I believe she is sleeping," Aren was holding something back probably to protect Elsa in some way. She didn't want to delve deeper, because if Aren was holding something back it was best to let it lie. "I'll let you know if there is anything of note." Elsa left it at that as she went into her room and she collapsed into her bed with a loud thump. She then looked over at the wall and couldn't help thinking that Anna was on the other side of the wall laying down near her.


Elsa woke up the next morning and her body felt better, but her mind still felt like she had been drugged or something. She jumped in the shower and got on a fresh pair of PT cloths. They were comfortable and gave her better access to her wound. She left the bandage off to let her skin finished drying from the shower, but probably needed to rewrap it after breakfast. She ate her breakfast pack before placing another on a tray with a fork and taking it to Anna.

"Aren is she awake?"

"Yes, but she is still laying down." Aren replied as the door opened. Anna instantly sat up and looked up and she still had fear in her eyes. The look struck at Elsa, but she did her best to ignore it.

"Here," she said as she set the tray on the desk across from Anna.

"Do you know what the device you have taken back for them even does?" Anna asked with a defiant tone in her voice.

"Nope," Elsa answered truthfully once again as it seemed that her ability to lie was still gone. "It is probably dangerous and needed to be recovered."

"You have no idea," Anna said as she pulled the tray off the desk and sat on the bed with it. Elsa stood there waiting to make sure Anna didn't try and hurt herself with the fork. "Do you want to know what it does?"

"No."

"So you are doing this with blind faith in a corrupt government," Anna replied as she set the tray aside.

Elsa could feel the heat in her face as her anger rose. "The alliance isn't corrupt. The only people that have to fear the alliance are those who wish to create disorder and don't obey the laws."

"Unless you disagree with those laws and try and get them changed, then accidents happen or something happens to discredit people. The Alliance lies –"

"No the Alliance gives only truth. The Alliance is the light in a dark galaxy and they have only ever told the truth to me," Elsa interrupted angrily and she stood up to leave.

"They only tell half-truths and take whatever they want and give nothing in return," Anna replied towards Elsa back.

"They gave me a life." Elsa's anger had flared out and left nothing else, "They wanted me when no one else did and not even my own flesh and blood wanted me. They told me that I could be strong and able to stand strong and they gave me the tools to do both. The Alliance gives life to those who have nothing else." She left it at that as she let the door close behind her before Anna could say anything else.

"Is there anything I can do?" Aren's voice rang out overhead. She obviously heard the exchange and she always wanted to try and make Elsa happy.

"No I need to take care of my wound," Elsa answered feeling even more exhausted then she had ever felt before.

"I'll prep the medical bay for you."


Anna collapsed on the bed. She couldn't believe how stupid she had been. Of course Elsa was a ward of the state, all NARK's were. Attacking the Alliance was the absolute worst thing to do to someone who owed everything to them.

"You probably just isolated the only friend you had left in the galaxy Anna," she said to herself. It was also a several day trip to Elysium and this might be her last meal if Elsa didn't want to talk to her ever again. Of course Anna let her mouth get away with her, but it felt like something had changed inside her recently. She had become more defiant and felt stronger, but now she felt like someone had taken all of that away. She felt like a deflated balloon that had been over stretched.

She pulled the tray of food over and opened the meal bag. She had seen these before, but never ate one. She looked and saw that the food inside could have been messily eaten with fingers, but Elsa had brought a fork. It was probably why she stayed to make sure Anna didn't stab herself with it, but now she could and no one would know until they reached Elysium.

She wasn't going to because she was going to dedicate what probably was the last little bit of her life to making up with Elsa. Of course to do that she would need to come back through that door, which might not happen. So Anna ate her food and decided to wait to see what Elsa did. If she came back it would give Anna a chance to apologize and if not then she would have to try and find a way to get Elsa to come back.


Elsa had her arm rewrapped and ready to go. The wound was closed and healing quite well. It would be a red line on her arm before they reached Elysium. She grabbed the case that Anna had gotten and brought it to the cargo hold. The fact that it took this long for Elsa to confirm recovery of the device proved how off her game she was.

She pulled out the one the Knighthood had given her and set it next to the one she had taken from Anna.

"The object inside the case matches the specifications I got from the mission information," Aren sounded like she was trying to reassure Elsa. She didn't reply as she placed a lock decoder on the case and set it to unlock it. She then opened the other case and saw a perfectly shaped hole surrounded by soft foam to protect the device.

"Aren send a mission update to the Castle so that they are ready for us," Elsa called out as she pulled up a stool to sit on while waiting for the decoder. The case clicked just as she sat down which surprised her as the case wasn't that secure. She opened the case and saw the handle shaped device that didn't look dangerous in the slightest. "What can you tell me about this thing?" she asked as she picked it up.

"Not much. It is made from a material that I can't scan through. It doesn't' look like much though does it?" Aren replied as Elsa placed the device in the other case. She then closed it and saw the lights on the front glow to life. They were flashing yellow in order from left to right as the case scanned the device. "The case must have better scanning abilities then I do because I couldn't detect anything from it."

The lights then flashed green and Elsa sighed in relief as the case wouldn't have accepted anything but the real device. She then heard the case click as it locked itself and she placed it in her high value storage compartment. The ship could be completely eradicated and that compartment would still survive floating through space.

She then went back up to the flight deck and sat in the pilot's chair. She couldn't stop thinking about the confrontation this morning. Normally things like this wouldn't bother her in the slightest, but now she couldn't stop thinking about it. What about that girl made her so scatter brained.

"Am I going crazy Aren?" she couldn't help asking.

"You brain waves have changed a little, but they don't match a person that is mentally unstable," Aren replied as she had scanned Elsa in the med bay. "What are you feeling?"

"Like crying and I can't stop thinking about Anna," Elsa replied with the truth. This time it wasn't shocking to hear not because she didn't expect it, but because she was getting use to telling it. She got up and walked back into her room

"I wish I could do something to help," Aren replied, but Elsa just lay down and closed her eyes.
