"Kai," Her message read, "I need to talk to you about something. It's urgent. Can you please come to me?"

Elliot, ever attentive to Rain's needs and aware of the importance of her uneasiness, excused himself from the ongoing conversations and discreetly made his way to the control room where Rain was locked in for the evening. 

Rain's uneasiness had reached a breaking point as he began pacing back and forth in the control room. And as soon as Elliot entered the control room, she didn't waste a moment before rushing into his arms and wrapping him in a tight, desperate hug.

If it were before, Elliot would have already broken some of his bones with the intensity with which Rain was hugging him but the training with her for the past few days proved its efficacy as Elliot not only not broke his bones but also returned it with the same fervour.
