[His collar must be gold at present.
That is the first thought running through his mind when Gaara awakens. He hears grumbling from Shukaku, and answers back somewhat absently. Once he regains his mental bearings, he realizes the darkness surrounding him. Gaara extends one arm forward to push at the unknown restriction, not expecting his sand powers to work in this state.
Outside of the cocoon, he inspects the room with blatant curiosity. A new F3 location, he instantly assumes. He needs to check in with Sai, his siblings, and his friends, and then figure out what this week’s challenge will entail.
However… the communication device doesn’t seem to be in his possession at the moment. Frowning, Gaara steps out of the room to begin his exploration. His senses are on high alert, in anticipation of monster attacks.]
[ Ishtar brushed off some of the leftovers of the cocoon as she woke up and pushed herself out of it. Sidia rested at hers side unhappily and no one else she knew was here. She tugged at her hair and furrowed her brows. Where was here? Did the Facility vanish again? It’s not another one of those 3rd Facilities right? It can’t be. She just fought with everyone to get rid of them.
What the hell is going on?! ]
[As Gaara is walking down the hallway, he keeps searching for the device, as well as any signs of the other inhabitants. His movement is swift, and after a few dozen strides, he begins calling out in an even, but audible tone.]
Sai. Temari. Kankuro. Ishtar.
...Gaara?
[ Ishtar raised a brow catching sight of red hair that stood out in the room of cocoons. ]
H-Hey….what the hell. GAARA!
[ Ishtar started pacing quickly towards Gaara, and trying to make sure she wasn't delusional when her eyes darted towards Gaara and realized it was Gaara but she might be seeing things. The Facility did that to people! ]
[His head immediately turns toward the source, his breath briefly catching in relief. So they had simply been separated. He will find the others, after ensuring Ishtar’s safety.]
Ishtar.
[Gaara heads toward the princess, his expression soft with concern. She is armed, fortunately.]
Have you been able to locate your communication device?
N-no but this-- it shouldn't be happening, and you--you’re not suppose to be-- GAARA.
[ Ishtar throws her arms around him the minute she realized he was the real thing without even giving him a warning but she did it discreetly so that the shield didn't smack her in the face when she wanted to hug Gaara. ]
…?
[His eyes widen with surprise at the ferocity of her reaction, but because this is Ishtar, he allows her to hold him. He doesn't understand why she seems so worried and upset, when they are already accustomed to this routine. It takes a moment for the Suna ninja to recover, before he slowly lifts his arms, and wraps them around her slender frame.]
Are you all right…?
[ She squeezed him tightly against her form. It was Gaaa, in the flesh and bone. He wasn’t fake and he was still alive. She kept squeezing him, fighting back tears that were welling up in her eyes. It was so saddening when she lost a lot of her friends. To see them again, she was so happy. There were no words to describe how happy she was. ]

Gaara...Gaara...
Gaara
Ishtar
[Action]
No, I'm not. I'm glad to see you Gaara.
[ She replied wiping the tears from her eyes. ]
[Action]
...I don't understand. [He murmurs quietly, his voice filled with uncertainty.] You are crying. That trait isn't typically associated with happiness.
[At least, not from his personal experience.]
[Action]
I'm really happy to see you since you've been gone for a long time, Gaara.
[ She replied giving him a sad look. ]
I can cry tears of happiness too silly.
[Action]
[Instant confusion from those words alone. What could she mean by them? They had scarce contact during the last F3 expedition, but then when they returned to the primary facility...
Damn. For some reason, he can't remember clearly. Did the Doctors do something to affect his memory? Possibly alter it, to suit their needs?] ...I don't understand.
[Her expression is twisted with sadness. Gaara refutes in a stern tone.] Don't spare my feelings, Ishtar. You are experiencing sadness, right now.
[Action]
[ She replied giving him a small smile, though slightly painful as she gave him a look. ]
It means you've been gone from Facility for a long time. You-- you know what happens to people who disappear. Gaara, I'm not-- I'm just happy to see you and that you're okay. A girl can cry when they're happy too you know?
[Action]
[He remembers leaving the facility, but had assumed that Ishtar also escaped… Wait. His mind halts to a sudden stop.]
Where are my siblings? And Sai?
[So he had been terminated… but why is he here now, then? Theoretically, he should be dead. And if time had passed since his departure… why can’t he remember what happened? He doesn’t recall having returned home before arriving to this new world.
Without warning, his grip on Ishtar tightens.]
My memories… They may have been altered. Please elaborate.
[Action]
[ She furrowed her brows as she said those words, softly and carefully. Ishtar tightens her grip on him too as she pets his hair. There were things she needed to tell him, but she couldn't right now. All she could do was hug him and make sure that he felt safe with her. She was going to protect him even of no one else was there to do it. She knew she wasn't strong enough, but she wanted to be strong enough. She wanted the power to protect Gaara, who was like a brother to her and everyone else that was kind to her. ]
You were terminated a long time ago. I was still there for another two or so years...it's been a painful journey. I remembered the break out of fighting and us winning before I woke up here. There were so many deaths though, so many casualties.
[Action]
...Unless that was intentional as well.
Gaara acknowledges her head petting with a slight shift. He knows he should back away at one point, but for now... he can't bring himself to leave the sanctuary of her arms.]
Two additional years...? [He regrets not being by her side in the final fight. But he does feel relief in knowing that they were able to secure victory.] Nonetheless, you were able to escape and return to Pheliosta. Correct?
[Truth be told, hearing about the number of deaths don't perturb him. He is a ninja, after all.]
[Action] seriously my notifs are being bitchy with this thread ... ugh
Yeah about two years give or take. I've been there for almost four years myself.
[ She replied nodding her head. ]
Th-that I don't know...and I woke up here after it. All I know was that there was a lot of injury and people died a lot.
[ She looked down. ]
