Laura White ached all over today. She stole a glance at Fiona Wright beside her, only to find Fiona acting as if nothing was wrong. She was immediately reminded of the somewhat strange exercises Vera Xavier had led Fiona through the day before.
So, she glanced over at Vera Xavier. Vera's form during the military training was perfect, and she didn't look strained in the slightest.
She bit her lip lightly, remembering the scene of Vera saving that boy the other day. By now, she was more or less certain that Vera really did know some medicine—and from the looks of it, she was pretty good.
Laura White's expression as she looked at Vera was complicated. Her mind wandered for a moment, and the drill instructor immediately pulled her out of formation, making her perform the last exercise five times in front of everyone.
She quickly snapped to attention, not daring to let her mind wander again, and focused on performing the training exercises properly.
