Childes POV:

I'm shaking, trying to recollect memories from when I went through that. I don't doubt Klee's abilities, I just want her to be okay.

There's 8 more minutes, c'mon Klee you can do this.
My eyes kept pacing between my watch and a document, I don't know what I would do if Klee died.

Suddenly the door opened. The sweet Klee I knew walked out and wiped a speck of blood off her face.

"3 minutes?!!"

Klee started to run towards me and flung into my arms.

"Dad that was so fun! Why didn't you tell me about this earlier!?"

"Fun..? Ah, whatever you did a great job!"

"CHAMBERS CLEARED,"  the speakers echoed as Klee looked back at it.

Klee looked around the room as everyone was staring with wide eyes, shocked. She then nonchalantly took her gloves off and switched them out for another pair in her bag.

"Who are you." Her Majesty said.

"I'm Klee."

"Klee.. You do know you just placed 3rd place for everyone in this room who has taken this test."

"3rd place? Nice!"

"Well. Congratulations, you've been granted the role as the 12th fatui harbinger, and here is your delusion."

She has the same one as mine.

"Electro? Cool!! What's your de..delusion Dad?"

"Aha.. Mines also electro."

"Yay we're matching!"

A long silence conveyed the room until Scaramouche decided to open his big mouth.

"3 minutes is impossible for a kid like her! Someone had to have made it easier, who did it?!"

"The chambers were not changed, Scaramouche," A guard chimed in.

"What?!" He grabbed Klee by the hood, "Who are you how did you do tha-"

"Let go!" She screamed as she grabbed around her neck and kicked around in the air.

"Let go!" She screamed as she grabbed around her neck and kicked around in the air

"Don't touch her!" I swung at him and grabbed Klee.

"Childe you bitc-"

"SILENCE."

"Let's all just say congratulations to our new harbinger and be dissmissed."

"Congratulations," everybody said together, not Scaramouche though he was still on the floor staring at me like a psycho.

"I've got to get going." I said as I picked my bag up.

We walked past Scaramouche and as he finally stood up I whispered in his ear, "Next time I'll kill you."

As we left the room I heard him sit back down and the others were making fun of him.

"Bro who told you it was okay to hit children?" Sae said as everyone else laughed.

"Just shut up.." Was the last thing I heard as I showed Klee to our rooms.

"You should sleep in my room for a couple weeks.. I don't trust Scaramouche enough to let you be alone."

"That's okay! I'll just use my sleeping bag I used at The Golden House!"

"No, you can take the bed your comfort is more important to me."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Are you reallyy sure?"

"Yes. I'll be okay."

"Okay then I'll take the bed," She gave me a smile as she went to go brush her teeth.

"Little kid that works with alcohol.. that really reminds me of someone," I heard Klee mumbling to herself.

"Klee!" Signora suddenly barged into my room, "I knew you were here."

"Signora you can't just barge into my room what if I was naked?! Hmmm?"

"I'd leave, anyway Klee how does a makeover sound?"

"Make..over?"

"Yes, you know when you change yourself?"

"I know what a makeover is! And yes i'll do one."

"Perfect, I brought clothes," She said as she handed Klee some things, "Childe go away and do something."

"What?! This is MY room."

"Leave!"

"Fine." I said as I left, "Don't be too long, I have thing to do in here."

"I'll call you when we're done."
