[color=lightblue]"Yeah, we'll go into town and get you some things to wear. In the meantime, wear this."[/color]

[i]I hand her my cloak. She puts it on without issue, and wraps her whole body in it. I feel attached to her, like she's another chance to finish what I coudln't before...[/i]

...

[i]We go into town and I purchase her all the clothes she likes. I've got her both casual attire and tactical gear. She takes after me in wearing the pants and boots all the time, smiling after she told me she wanted to work as I did. She's so sweet... I could take her as my sister for real any day.[/i]

[color=lightblue]"Alright, that's that! So, Ela, time to train up on what you're going to need to know for real combat. I'm going to teach you my skills and knowledge. I'm called 'he Reaper' by many. Perhaps one day you'll make a name for yourself too. Are you ready?"[/color]

[i]We were at the practice holo-ranges at Black Ops headquarters. She picked up fast on everything, hopefully this too.[/i]

[color=lightpink]"I'm ready as I'll ever be!"[/color]

[color=lightblue]"Wonderful. I have several situations for you to run through. Here are your weapons. I just want you to use them in the way you best see fit. Ready?"[/color] [i]I hand her her equipment and get her ready.[/i]

[color=lightpink]"Ready, begin simulation!"[/color]

[i]I initiate the simulation, and we practice her stealth and assassinations with it for hours.[/i]
