After the enemy Frame was done filling the outer shell of Rilus with dents, Elora now had peace and quiet to reflect on her actions in the mock battle. She thought back to the moment when she was fighting the Frame with the explosive weapon. It was there where she got scared and fled. And not only that, but Sigma was also fighting a big, scary-looking Frame too. She was regretting her decision.

[i]I should have stayed there and fought with Sigma against the big Frame. I shouldn't have left her alone. I'm a coward.[/i]

The opposing Frame shut down, and the professor announced the mock battle to be over. Elora rose up from her seat, and started climbing out of Rilus. Her thoughts now went back to the moment she decided to charge at the high-energy Frame. She was brave that time, but where did the bravery actually come from? Was it the desperate situation, the only choice of attack for Rilus, or Sigma's kind words? Once Elora got out and slid off Rilus' round torso, she came to a conclusion: it was all three, in addition to Elora's desire to prove she wasn't as weak as she was. She learned a lot about combat and teamwork today, even without the CA, and decided that from this day forward she would try to change into someone more courageous, someone who never betrays her friends. It's not going to be easy, and she knows she's going to have a hard time, but she was now set in her path. Becoming friends with her co-pilots...that's what she wants the most.

She was standing near her own Framewerk for a while before she noticed that the pilot of the other Frame was also outside, and sat on one of the  shells. Elora wanted to see who was piloting such a scary-looking Frame, and Elora ran closer. She soon realized it was the idol, since she hasn't changed to the pilot suit, which struck Elora as curious. She came into conversational distance and waved her hand a little bit.

"Umm, hello. I was the pilot of the Frame you shot down. I attempted to contact you, but you had your communications shut off. Not that it really mattered, since this was everyone against everyone." Elora made a weak smile, hoping that she didn't offend her. She took a quick look up towards her Frame. "You've got a really cool-looking Frame to pilot, with the red eyes and all. My Frame looks kind of goofy in comparison. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Elora Liu'un."
