Kazuhas Pov:
"Scara, Scara~"
The voice of a child echoed around me.
"Who are you!?" I asked.
"Oh? ...that's my question I'll have to ask you."
"I asked it first."
Suddenly, an illusion of a girl dressed on green came and glitched on.
"I'm Nahida, Scara's adoptive mother. Where is he?"
"You! His..mother?"
"Answer the question."
"He's uh..."
I looked down but strangely he was out of the green circle.
"He...passed out.."
"Passed out!? What....what is going on!?"
"I don't think I'll have enough time but maybe because apparently..you archons like to chat, ask Venti about it."
"Venti? Wait- how do you know I'm an archon?"
"Venti asked me to say hi to somebody called Nahida and I presumed she was an archon so now that I found you're Nahida, might aswell save me the trouble and ask Venti that question as you have the benefit of being an archon.."
His mother is an archon huh..
She frowned and seemed to inspect me but then turned away.
"Well then, Kaedehara.."
"How did you k-"
"Tut, tut. You don't tell me, I don't tell you, its how deals work these days."
Sigh....she probably knows because of Raiden Ei anyway.
"Alright, so, did you need anything?"
"Mm..no, nothing in particular..it's just usual for a mother to check up on their son no?"
...
"Ah..I wouldn't know really.."
Then, Nahida gasped and cupped her mouth with her hands.
"Oh oh...I'm so sorry...my ap-"
"Oh its fine don't worry about..! It's not a hard topic to talk about or anything, in fact, I'm quite interested on how mothers treat their children.."
Nahida suddenly seemed to gloom a little down.
"Ah..well um, if you ever talk about it..please don't talk about it with Scara.."
Hmm?
"Why not?"
"It's a pretty hard topic for him because of his past mother..."
"Ah...right.."
"Mm very well then..I need to go now"
"Oh! Very well then!"
"Nice meeting you Kaehdehara.."
I flinched.. Kaehdehara..huh..
"Sorry...call me Kazuha please.."
Reminding about my ancestors isn't the happiest thing to remember for me..
"Oh right..sorry..okay then, I'll take my leave now- matters to attend to, if you two need anything do it through this ball alright?"
"Okay then..goodbye."
She waved at me.
"Wait! Wh-"
Before I could ask her the question, the transparent walls dissapeard and swirled back into the ball.
*Jingle*
"Oh..."
I was going to ask what organisation The Seven was but it seems her matters were far more important.
"Well-"
I looked around me, an exploded building and nothing else except dirt and a Scara on the floor.
I should wake him up..
"Hey..Scara..!" I whispered in his ear.
"Scara! Scara!"
Hmm...how should I wake him up.
"Halt! Who are you!!"
What?
Inazuman soldiers surrounded me with spears.
"I wasn't the one that bombed down the building I swear-"
"Ha! Who said you were the one that bombed it down..?"
Fuck...they got me.
What do I do, what do I do!?
"You are now under arrest. Please cooperate and come with us and nobody gets hurt."
Lies.
"Ha! Well..not today, my apologies."
"What!?"
"See ya!"
I stood up and with all my energy I picked Scara up abs carried him on my shoulders then making a run for it.
"HEY! COME BACK HERE!!"
"I can't sir! I have to go! I'm really sorry!"
I shouted back whilst running with Scara on my shoulders.
Wait..why am I apologising?
As I ran, I almost fell and Scara woke up from all the chaos.
"..ka..zu- ha?"
He yawned.
"Finally you're awake sleeping beauty!! Great timing there!"
I said sarcastically while avoiding a tree root from the ground.
"S..leeping..beauty?"
"Ugh...just wake up already.."
"I am!"
Then he proceeded to stand up, forgetting that he was on my shoulders, he fell of and landed on the ground.
His legs then entangled with mine and we both ended up falling over.
"Woah!!"
"Agh!!"
For seconds we both layed on the ground.
"Oww...my head.." Scara whined.
"Thats all your fault!"
"Shut up..." He groaned.
Then we heard yells from the distance coming closer.
"The soldiers...their catching up.."
"Soldiers!?" Scara asked me.
"We are getting chased."
He turned to me and looked at me as if to say "are you serious right now!?"
The soldiers stopped and one pointed his spear right at my face.
"Ah!" I yelped and unconsciously clinged onto Scara.
"Hmm?"
"Hey! You guys!"
A voice shouted.
"OH MY GOD HEIZOU!!"
There he is!!
"Ah! Mister Heizou!" The soldiers said.
Mister Heizou!? What the hell!?
"We caught the cri-"
"No- in fact you did not. That over there is my best friend and he saved everybody's lives, and his other friend over there."
"What? I thought you were the one that saved them?" One stated.
"Oh I did...but...only, because of them." He said sternly.
Heizou.....why are you so amazing!?
"Ah right...my apologies Mister Heizou..."
"Get a move on then, leave them alone."
The soldiers all nodded and hurried away.
"Well then..that's sorted.."
Heizou started.
Scara covered his hand on his face turning towards me.
He leaned over and whispered.
"It'd be best if you let go of me now."
I flinched so hard and turned a shade of velvet. Why'd he have to say it like that.
I scratched my head and laughed.
"So Heizou...what brings you here..?"
"Came here to save your asses. I figured that you would still be at the ruins when the soldiers came to investigate..quite dumb they are to assume you committed arson.."
"And quite smart you are.." Scara stated.
"Why thank you."
Scara's Pov:
"Ah right..I've got to talk to you both about something..." Kazuha said.
"What is it Kazu?" Heizou replied.
Oh? Kazu...is that a nickname? Cute..
"Okay so...when you passed out-" Kazuha said pointing at me.
"-and you left."He said to Heizou.
"I was met by a rather strange trio. They call themselves 3wirl, and..to put it...they saved us both.."
"Oh..me too?" I asked.
"..yes, when you passes out and the building was about to collapse."
Ah...that must've been painful..poor Kazuha..
"They are part of an organistaion called The Seven.."
"What exactly do they do..?"
"Oh...I don't know actually...I'm not quite sure exactly..all I know is that it involves fighting and exploding buildings...and we need an Anemo vision"
Heizou stared at him with a side eye on his face.
"I'm not joining then." Heizou said.
"Oh? I am.." Kazuha replied.
"I'm in." I said.
They both looked at me in surprise.
"I've got nothing better to do..plus, I loveee fighting."
Heizou looked away.
"Are you sure..?" Kazuha asked.
"Mm, it's a good way to pass the time."
"Oh..so you're that good!?" Heizou asked.
"Indeed I am."
He bit his lip from anxiety and looked away again. Kazuha didn't seem to notice.
"Well..okay then..what about you Heizou..?"
He stared for a while before replying.
"Sigh...I'll join.."
"You will!?"
"Yep..."
"Thats great! Thank yeww!!"
Kazuha hugged Heizou..
...
"Haha! No worries, I would do anything for my besties!" Heizou laughed.
...
I yawned.
"Well..I'm pretty tired..."
I said looking bored.
"Ah, right...we best get home then.." Kazuha said
"We?" I asked.
"Yuh, me and Kazu live together now." Heizou said.
"Oh.."
"Only after something happened and I was forced to hide in his house." Kazuha said quickly.
"Oh? Well okay then..I'll go then."
"Bye bye!!" Heizou waved me off.
"Wait!" Kazuha said.
"Hmm?"
"Where are you going?"
"Uh...um..I'm going back to the Kamisato Estate.."
"Pfft-" Heizou laughed.
Then he started choking on air and seemed to die of laughter.
"Ha! Are you dumb!? That place is bombed and collapsed down! You have nowhere to go!" He laughed.
Kazuha sighed and pinched Heizou.
"Shut up.." He whispered.
"Ah..sorry, sorry.."
"Well..it seems your right...I have quite forgotten about that.."
"Yeah yeah, well that's a you problem, we've got to go." Heizou said.
"No.."
Kazuha grabbed my arm..
"Uh..."
"You're coming with me."
"WHAT!?" Heizou yelped.
I was quite surprised to in fact.
"Are you crazy!? That is not happening! Nuh uh." Heizou said.
"Well..I'm having him here okay? Whether you like it or not. Hmph!"
Kazuha pulled my arm and started walking away.
"What...?" Heizou stuttered.
I kind of felt bad for the guy...
"I feel betrayed." Heizou begged.
Kazuha sighed and turned back.
"Come here you dummy."
He held out his hand.
Heizou took it and smiled.
We started walking to a direction where a black car was parked.
"They gave me that for free..you know..for evacuating the people and stuff." Heizou explained.
"Good, good."
We went inside the car and Heizou drove the car.
...
All was silent.
Heizou seems to have a nice connection with Kazuha.
I turned to Kazuha and stared at him...he was quite pretty...
"Hm? Anything wrong Scara..?"
"Ah..it's nothing..."
I looked out the window.
