Love or hatred? (Diluc x y/n) OLD VER

46:Mysteriously

Diluc POV
I sighed as I looked out the window. It was raining outside, thunder roared and lightning flashed. It's been months since I've last seen (y/n). Lumine and Paimon has gone to Inazuma.

I hope they're fine. Inazuma is dangerous. Especially with the vision hunt decree.

I had sent more spies into the Fatui, I was waiting for their report. Someone knocked on my office's door. "Come in," I Said.

They came in, it was one of my spies. "Master Diluc. I have information that you will find useful. (Y/n) is currently sent in Inazuma," Said the spy. My eyes widened.

Inazuma...? Why? I hope she'll be fine. Don't you die, (y/n).

(Y/n) POV
I found the delusion factory and found Scaramouche sitting on a chair. He was quite short compared to me. "Hey shortie! Mind telling me what you've been up to?" I Said, waving at him as I entered the room he was sitting in.

"Don't call me shortie! And the plans to get the gnosis is quite slow at the moment. Maybe you would consider lending me a hand?" Sneered Scaramouche, giving me his very angry stare. I thought he looked rather childish.

"Yeah yeah whatever! As if I would know how to get it from the Raiden Shogun!" I Yelled, snatching Scaramouche' hat and holding it high up so he can't reach it.

"Shortie, tell me why the Fatui is 'sponsoring' the resistance? For what purpose? And giving them these new delusions?!" I Said, moving out of the way as Scaramouche tried to tackle me.

"Oh I'll tell you! We're going to third party them and snatch the gnosis just as the Shougn's army gets weak!" Yelled Scaramouche, jumping as high as he could to try to reach his hat.

I sighed and plopped the hat back onto his head. "A good enough answer I guess. Byeee!" I stuck my tongue out at him as I left the factory. I didn't like it's aura anyways.

I was heading towards Inazuma city, I hid my vision as I was getting close. I decided to try a dessert sold by a street merchant. It was delicious, he called it 'dango milk'. I brought an extra bottle and wave goodbye to him.

I decided to pay a visit to the Grand Narukami Shrine the next day and went on exploring Inazuma city. The people were very nice, it was an enjoyable experience.

The next day...

I yawned as I climbed up the mountain. It was such a long morning hike. I finally reached the entrance and saw Lumine and Paimon with a pink haired fox lady. "(Y/n)? What are you doing here?" Exclaimed Paimon.

I shrugged and walked up to them. "I just so happen to be here. So uh, what are you doing? And who is this?" I asked.

Paimon explained everything but she exaggerated a few things.

Wow so Scaramouche encountered Lumine? She seems a bit intimidated by that shortie?!

I looked behind to see three people. Two guards and one woman with a red mask on one side of her head.

They went on to talk about how the Kujou clan might be working with the Fatui. Lumine and Paimon turned to face me. "What?" I Said, crossing my arms.

Sara left, expecting proof in 3 days. Yae turned to face me and so did Paimon and Lumine. "It seems that you're from the Fatui? Do you happen to have any solid proof for us?" Said Yae. I shook my head. "Sorry but I don't have any penned documents on the cooperation with the Kujou clan. Even if there was, they are probably with the Kujou clan and Scaramouche or possibly Signora," I said apologetically.

Yae nodded and thought for a moment. I decided that I didn't want to be involved in whatever they were doing and decided to go exploring around the beaches of Ritou. I heard a loud roar of the thunder and looked up. A storm was looming over the whole island.

I was confused, isn't that the storm that surrounds Inazuma?

People were yelling and screaming in fear as lighting struck the ground at random. I seeked shelter under a cliff. The wind started to gain speed and the waves crashed against the shore louder than ever. I felt someone grab my ankle.

"H-hey!" I yelped as the person used something heavy to knock me out. I fell into silent darkness, the sound of the storm echoed distantly in my mind.

After waking up...

I groaned as I opened my eyes to see the sun glaring down cheerfully at me. I was all wet, my limbs hurt. I tried to sit up but my arms hurt too much. Where am I? How long as it been? I turned my head to look around. This doesn't look like Inazuma at all. It was all too bright and cheery.

I finally got myself to sit up after a while. My hair was all messed up and I could see wounds all over my body. I felt the pain hit me all at once. It stung a lot. I frowned as I held my left arm. It hurt the worst. My right ankle felt broken. Whoever grabbed me back then definitely wanted to kill me.

I looked around, I couldn't recognize where this was. I sighed to myself, my only hope was to wait for someone to find me or I go find someone. Somehow.

I looked up at the sky, it seems to be a whole new day, it could've been weeks! I was washed ashore! How did I survive the Inazuma storm?! Or anything?

I checked my body, my vision was there. Which was a good thing. I checked for my delusion and sure enough, it was there. My bag wasn't on me when I was at the beach and I left it with a trusted Fatui member who I called 'Dumbass no. 121'.

I heard the voices of people. I looked at that direction. My eyesight was a bit blurry, I couldn't make out the person that well but it was a person.
