Elisa gave a final, wary glance back at the ‘Elemental’ before following Walter, walking alongside of him. She had no idea of who or what these ‘Ghost Bears’ were, only that the thought frightened her on a deep and fundamental level. There had been twenty-five of those suits, each one of which had one of those monsters inside of them. Even then, Elisa imagined that those were just a small portion of their overall force.<br/><br/>The comments from the Kuritan officer only served to reinforce those feelings. “It would appear that the situation has changed and that we are the worse for it. Right now, sir, I would suggest that our best bet is to try and get off-world and escape with the intel we’ve gained. If the Lyrans want to take it up with us over contract breach, then we can use it as a bargaining chip. I mean…” She glanced at the Kuritan and then back at the distant, but still huge, form of the Elemental woman. “That was a single platoon of their infantry. What can their ‘Mechs do?”<br/><br/>She shook it off, returning to her original motivation. “All that aside, I have severe reservations about Shadowborn.” Elisa continued. “She panicked and tried to deliberately get herself killed out there, and that’s the least of her problems. The girl’s crazy; she’s unstable, unreliable and likely to get herself killed along with someone else.” She was trying not to raise her voice, but it was hard to keep a lid on this.<br/>
