"Next scene! An alternate version to the last cutscene of the Mondstadt Archon quest."

As the screen flickered to life, showing the harrowing scene of Signora betraying Venti, Zhongli and their children were immediately drawn in, their expressions shifting from curiosity to shock and burning anger.

Venti groans annoyed "not that!"

Xiao, ever the vigilant protector, was the first to react. His stoic demeanor tightened, his golden eyes narrowing with a lethal glint. "Mother," he muttered, the word laced with an unspoken promise of swift retribution. His spear materialized in his hand, its sharp tip reflecting his deadly intent.

Aerden, the second son, with his dual affinity for Geo and Anemo, felt a surge of conflicting elements within him. The ground beneath him trembled as rocks lifted into the air, swirling around him in a tempest of power. "How dare she?" he growled, his voice a low rumble as his aura flared, the fusion of earth and wind creating a formidable storm around him.

Harmonia, always the diplomat, felt a pang of anguish seeing her mother in such a vulnerable state. But instead of despair, her resolve hardened. "We will stand by him," she declared, her voice ringing with authority. "No one betrays our family and escapes unscathed." Her presence became a beacon of unwavering strength, her aura calming yet unyielding.

Lyra, with her adventurous spirit and musical talent, channeled her shock into action. She grabbed her lyre, its strings glowing with elemental energy. "Our music will be his shield," she vowed, her fingers plucking the strings to produce a melody that resonated with power and protection. Her song amplified the courage and strength of her family.

Navarre, driven by his passion for discovery, felt a fierce protectiveness over his mother. "This isn't just an attack on Mother," he stated, his voice trembling with barely controlled rage. "It's an assault on our legacy." He summoned ancient symbols and runes, their golden light illuminating his determination to defend his family.

Valea, the youngest daughter and a fierce warrior, immediately stepped forward, her resolve evident in her every movement. Her spear glowed with a fiery light as she pointed it towards the screen. "I'll protect him," she declared, her voice filled with unshakable conviction. "Anyone who threatens our family will face my wrath."

Zhongli, witnessing his children's reactions, felt a swell of pride amidst his worry. He stepped forward, his presence commanding and calm despite the chaos. His eyes glowed with a golden light, his dragon horns emerging as his power surged. "We are stronger together," he proclaimed, his voice resonating with divine authority. "Signora will face the consequences of her actions. We will not allow her betrayal to go unpunished."

Venti bites his lip, whining at the sight of his husband onscreen "fuck that's hot!"

Said husband just chuckles.

As the intense beat of "Flashbacks" by CRASPORE seemed to resonate through the very air, the family made their entrance, their combined might shaking the ground and stirring the wind. The atmosphere crackled with elemental energy, a palpable force of nature. They moved with purpose, their footsteps echoing like thunder, their eyes blazing with unwavering resolve.

Xiao, leading the charge, exuded a menacing aura. His spear, gleaming with lethal intent, sliced through the air as he advanced. "Mother," he called out, his voice a growl of pure rage. "We are here."

Aerden followed, his storm of earth and wind swirling around him, creating a vortex of power. "You will not harm our family!" he declared, his voice rumbling like an approaching storm.

Harmonia's presence brought a wave of calm yet intimidating authority. Her eyes fixed on Signora with a steely gaze. "Your betrayal ends here." she stated, her voice carrying the weight of an unbreakable will.

Lyra's music filled the air, a haunting melody that amplified the family's resolve. Her lyre glowed with an ethereal light, the notes weaving a protective barrier around Venti. "Our song will protect him," she promised, her voice ringing clear and strong.

Navarre's symbols and runes glowed brighter, their ancient power illuminating his determined expression. "This is our mother," he proclaimed. "We will defend him."

Valea's spear blazed with a fiery light, her every move a testament to her warrior spirit. "Stand down, or face our wrath." she warned, her voice carrying the promise of relentless retribution.

Zhongli, at the forefront, his dragon form partially revealed, was a sight to behold. His golden eyes blazed with righteous fury, his voice a thunderous command. "Leave now, Signora," he ordered, his tone brooking no argument. "Or face the combined might of our family."

Signora, witnessing the formidable front of the family, hesitated, realizing the true extent of their power and unity. The sight of Zhongli and their children, ready to unleash their fury to defend Venti, served as a powerful reminder of their strength and loyalty.

Venti, feeling the warmth and support of his family, looked up, tears of relief and gratitude mingling with his pain. "Thank you," he whispered, his voice trembling. "Thank you for standing by me."

In that moment, the family stood united, their bond unbreakable. Signora, sensing the overwhelming power and seeing the determined faces of Venti's protectors, took a step back. The air was thick with tension, charged with the promise of retribution.

With one last defiant glance, Signora retreated, leaving behind a whirlwind of tension and fear. The family remained vigilant; their protective stances unyielding as they watched her disappear.

As the danger passed, they turned to Venti, surrounding him with their love and support. Venti smiled through his tears, feeling the strength of his family bolstering his spirit. Together, they stood strong, a united front against any threat, their love and loyalty shining brighter than any betrayal.
