the sun beat down on her pale hair , making her feel uncomfortably warm in the black suit she'd donned that morning. small patches of sunlight peeked past rooftops and reflected off puddles on the ground , causing elena to blink more often. she absentmindedly thought about rude , and how he always wore his sunglasses - perhaps she should get her own pair ?? maybe they could all match.

fighting down a snort , she forced down the urge to shift her weight from one foot to the other. standing still for long amounts of time was still something she didn't particularly enjoy , but turks didn't fidget. shooting a glare back at a passerby who had decided to give her a dirty look , elena hoped that tseng wouldn't be much longer. it wasn't often that the two went out on an assignment together , but she still enjoyed it all the same. she found solace in tseng's company and cherished the sense of camaraderie they shared. he had disappeared into a building , telling her to stay and to guard the front, and so she did. the door to her left swung open and elena turned her head , watching as the dark-haired man emerged from the shadowy room. ‘ did you get what we need ?? ’ she asked quietly , aware that they were garnering attention. ‘ or do you need me to go in there ?? ’

the mirror in her hand was something she had cherished since her childhood. it held countless memories of double-checking her once-long hair before leaving the house and inspecting black eyes from training. it had become a symbol of her past. despite its battered and scratched appearance , the mirror had survived the test of time , its once vibrant yellow color now faded to a pale shade. elena had no idea how it wasn't broken , but , at that point , she was relieved ; she wasn't really interested in getting seven years of bad luck.

she studied her reflection , her brown eyes contrasting with her blonde hair , and couldn't help but purse her lips , narrowing her eyes at the bandage on her right cheek. the slice from her cheekbone to her chin marked the aftermath of her run-in with the remnants. valentine , assuring her it was not deep and unlikely to scar , seemed more concerned about the physical outcome than she did.

snapping it closed and dropping the mirror to her lap , elena lounged back on one of the sofas of healen. the medication she had taken earlier was beginning to wear off , and the dull ache in her muscles was steadily returning. after being poked and prodded at by shinra medics , elena was ready to enjoy a moment of tranquillity.

‘ hey , ’ she opened one eye , canting her head in the redhead's direction. elena had almost forgotten he was in the room with her , what with him being uncharacteristically quiet. she was tempted to be suspicious , but that was behaviour she would've indulged in when she was younger. ‘ do you think i'll look tough with this cut ?? y'know , if it scars ?? ’

pale fingers paused in their typing frenzy as elena exhaled loudly , eyes scanning the screen in front of her. they darted back and forth , double , then triple checking her report. data entry was mind-numbingly boring on the best of days , but that didn't mean that she didn't want it to be incorrect. she had standards , after all. a few clicks later and the document was sent with a whoosh to the appropriate inbox.

reaching her arms above her head , elena linked her fingers and stretched. her back popped in a few places , alluding to the length of time she'd spent hunched over writing. a content sigh left her as she lowered her hands and then propped her chin up with her palm , gaze directed towards one of the many windows in the office.

a bright orange was refecting off the the many buildings surrounding the tower she was in , bathing the room in a myriad of dusky tones. she could almost feel the warmth of the setting sun on her skin. the door creaked open , causing her to look the other way. at the sight of the figure , elena let a small , polite smile arrange its way on her features.

‘ marie , ’ she greeted , rising from her desk. ‘ hi , what brings you here today ?? i'm the only one in at the moment. ’ she kept her tone casual and tried to not be as clipped in front of strangers as she normally was. marie , after all , wasn't a stranger. elena had seen the other woman around often , sending her a polite smile whenever they made eye contact. truth be told , she didn't know how to act around her ; elena was used to working with men , and the only other woman she'd been close-ish with was her sister.

stepping back from the microscope , she motioned for the scientist to take a closer look. shielding her mouth , elena discreetly stifled a yawn that had surfaced , a testament to the toll of staying awake for almost 29 consecutive hours. her fingers grazed through her tousled locks , smoothing them away from her weary eyes , as she sought to regain her composure , only then realising tseng's presence in the room.

suppressing the fluttering sensation in her chest , elena straightened her posture and cleared her throat with resolve. she was determined to project an image of alertness and composure , despite the fatigue that threatened to betray her. she silently prayed that tseng hadn't caught sight of her momentary lapse , striving to uphold the utmost professionalism. offering him a timid smile , she redirected her attention to the scientist , who busily scribbled down their observations. the sudden whirring of a fax machine startled elena momentarily , causing a fleeting break in her focus. swiftly recovering , she reached out and retrieved the paper emerging from the tray.

as she perused the contents of the page , a frown etched its way onto elena's forehead. the reports indicated that the elusive sickness had surfaced in yet another sector , adding to the mounting list of afflicted victims. the absence of direct confirmation regarding its nature only heightened her frustration. however , her determination flickered in her gaze as she extended the paper to tseng , seeking his attention.

‘ sir , it's been sighted in another sector , ’ elena informed him. ‘ we're still attempting to find out what it is for definite , but we can rule out any sort of influenza. the symptoms look like it could be a plague , but again , it's strange. ’

‘ you lost ?? ’

elena's voice cut through the air with a touch of amusement and curiosity. it wasn't often someone new stumbled into the bar she worked at , especially when that someone was dressed so lavishly. the contrast between their opulent attire and the casual ambiance of the bar piqued elena's interest. she couldn't help but wonder if this stranger had been on their way to one of the trendy clubs that had recently sprung up in wall market , stealing away the business that had once flowed steadily into her bar , but she wasn't going to complain. it gave her more time to read her academy books and get started on an essay for next week's materia usage lecture.

slipping a bookmark between the pages , she slid off a barstool she had dragged behind the bar , brushing her skirt down and flicking one of her pigtails over a shoulder. she regretted not changing from her academy uniform , but she'd been in a rush going from martial arts practice to her job , leaving her with little time to change into a more suitable outfit. her academy uniform with sweatpants under would have to do.

nonetheless , she mustered a confident smile , her eyes narrowing slightly as she tried to place the face before her. they seemed strangely familiar , almost as if they had crossed paths before , or she'd seen them somewhere. she wracked her brain , attempting to recall a name or context that would help her make the connection.

‘ if you're not lost , d'ya wanna order ?? ’

the mocking glow of her alarm clock read 3:54 am , its digits seeming to taunt her as the thunderous banging on her apartment door continued. tempted to bury her head under her pillow and curl up under her comfy duvet , elena let out a long , exasperated groan. sitting up and glaring in the direction of the noise , a scowl etched itself onto her features , her hand instinctively running through her short blonde locks , only to encounter an unruly tangle that caused her to wince and yank it hard.

rising mournfully from her bed , elena tucked a robe around her pyjama-clad form and tied it tightly , offering a modest shield against the chilly air that seeped into her apartment. reaching under her bed , she pulled out a small , sleek handgun and slipped it into a pocket , quickly making sure it was loaded. padding through her apartment , a yawn erupted from her , causing her jaw to crack and a shudder to go through her frame. the knocking continued.

‘ yeah , yeah , 'm comin' , ’ elena muttered , her fatigue causing her slum accent to slip through slightly. standing on her tip toes , she peeked through the peephole to be met with the sight of fiery red. closing her eyes and tipping her head back , she scrunched her face up and let out a silent scream. reno.

‘ quit fuckin' knockin' so loud , asshole , ’ she seethed , fingers deftly unlocking the multiple security devices she had on her door. yanking it open , elena stared. ‘ what do you want ?! ’
