She became tired. Easily. Out of the 6 hours she was training with Amber, in the first hour or two, she couldn't train anymore. Amber was a good opponent in sparring but was too energetic. Y/N's energy was nearly gone and she was wheezing.

"Ok- Amber- I think- I'm done for- the day" Y/N struggled to get out. Amber chuckled and gave her another punch to the shoulder. Amber was somehow strict when teaching her, Y/N could barely take the heat anymore.

"Come on! We just started!" Amber punched again.

"6 hours ago, the sun is nearly setting now" The sun was halfway shown on the horizon, turning the sky into many different shades of pinks and oranges. "Dusk is apon us Amber, can we just continue tomorrow, I forgot to water my plants this morning and I'm getting worried"

"There just some stupid plants! How bad can it be?" Amber punched Y/N's gut. She fell on her back and out of the practice ring.

"I water them at 1pm each day, and I was so occupied with training with you that I forgot" Y/N struggled to get up. "Ugh, everything hurts" She mumbled. Only the second day of training and it was a nightmare. Yesterday at dawn they started, but then Y/N thought it was too early in the morning for her so Amber adjusted the time to 1ish. Which is the time Y/N waters her plants.

"Fine, I was getting a bit tired anyways, you can go home now, remember to get lots of sleep!" Amber gave a thumbs up as Y/N stood up. Her knees were wobbling and her breathing was heavy. She thanked Amber and slowly walked back to her home.

Her walk was a bit off and she was shaking, she didn't feel right. She felt like she was gonna puke. She'd never worked that hard in her whole life. It wasn't healthy sure, but it wasn't her fault that her parents locked her in the house for the first 18 years of her life. Now she was free, but weak. She took an apple out of her satchel and began to eat it. Slowly, she began to regain her energy little by little.

A rustle soon came from the bushes, then it started to get louder, and louder. Y/N took out her huge knife and pointed it at the bush. She noticed some thorns nearby so she quickly took those and wrapped them around the blade.

"IKA YA!" Something yelled. It was a hilichurl. No it was a whole group of them. She was just trying to get home, she didn't want to fight them now. But she had to. There were five hilichurls and one human.

"Ok" Y/N charged them with all her energy and began stabbing and swinging in fatal spots. The thorns on the blade were a big help, and that apple she ate earlier too. "Take this!" With one clean horizontal slice, she wiped out two hilichurls. Now she had one more to go. She easily took it out but as soon as she did she felt it the ground. Tears were built up in her eyes from her accomplishment.

"I- I did it" Her voice shook. She looked at the sky, and saw a green glowing light. "What? Surely, this can't be it, I just beat some hilichurls it's not that big of a deal" A green emerald gem was placed into her hands. A Dendro Vision. What she had wanted all along.

[♡]

"Wow if only huh?" Y/N laughed at her day dream. "Me beating hilichurls in this weak of a body? Please" She was still walking home from practice and eating an apple. "I just want that vision" She whispered. She never actually got the vision, it was all a day dream, a wish if you must. Her house came into view. At last she got to sleep the day away. But she had to water her plants.

"Paimon, what do we do?" It was Aether and Paimon. Talking about something that Y/N didn't really care about.

"What? About those flowers on her doorstep that you didn't put there, or your curiousity to get to know her? It's creepy ya know!" Paimon yelled. Y/N was near the dou and didn't want to get caught being there. She dove behind a bush and began listening.

"Obviously neither of those two options Paimon, I mean about storm terror" Aether chuckled, then mumbled something inaudible to Y/N. Paimon obviously heard it though.

"I HEARD THAT!" Paimon laughed. "Your jealous!"

"No! I'm just!" Aether put his hands in his face and groaned. "I'm just curious about those flowers" Paimon huffed and put her hand on her hips as a mother would when talking sternly to their child.

"Your curious about everything evolving her! And how do you even know where she lives? AHH! YOU FOLLOWED HER HOME YOU STALKER!" Paimon grabbed his arm and dragged him away from Y/N's home.

"Wait! Paimon! I have a reason!"

"Shut up you stalker!"

Y/N chuckled and got out of the bushes as soon as they were far enough. She knew who the flowers were from. Obviously from Keaya. He always liked to surprise you with the sweetest things. The finest chocolates, the freshest of flowers, or a walk durinh the most beautiful sunset of a life time. Sometimes, she thought he loved her, sometimes she thought she loved him. It could work, she could date him if she could. Maybe Y/N was just curious about Aether and his personality.

But she can't just be curious about everything. There has to be another reason why she wants to hang out with the new kid in town.

It couldn't be something as silly as love, right? She had only known him for three days so it was impossible.

Really really impossible. So impossible, that it shouldn't be a thought in mind.

Y/N L/N, was NOT in love with Aether.
