Flower Garden (Genshin Impact OC story)

The Girl and The Monster in The Sea

Hana woke up with the sun hitting her eyes. She had dreamt all night about that kiss she had shared with Beidou." I hope it wasn't just a dream..." she thought to herself. She sat up in the bed, rubbed her eyes, and looked to her side. There she was, Beidou was still sleeping, after all, the sun was just rising. Hana got of the bed, covered Beidou with the blankets that had fallen off the side of the bed, and fixed Beidou's hair since it was all on her face. After this she sneaked out the room and went to sit on the floor in the Alcor's front deck. She stayed there for some hours, just watching the horizon and thinking of everything that had happened in such a short period of time. "I'm really going to miss her..." she thought. She heard some footsteps behind her, heavy yet delicate footsteps. She heard the voice of a young man, "Beautiful, isn't it? The view from here." He said. "It sure is" she answered. She turned around to see a tall and slightly tanned man, with an eyepatch in his right eye that looked just like Beidou's. "Homura Kaji, nice to meet you." he said. "Ueda Hana, likewise!" said Hana. "Oh you're from Inazuma too?" asked Homura. "Well, yes and no, it's a long story haha" she answered. "Well we got time, I'm all ears" said Homura. "Well, you're not wrong" she said. She told Homura what happened and pretty much all she had told Beidou of her life. "So to answer your question, I was born in Inazuma, but raised in Mondstadt." said Hana. "Woah, sounds like a pretty fun life!" said Homura. "You could say so! But what about you? How'd you get here?" asked Hana. "Well it would be rude not to tell you after asking to listen to your story, so here goes" said Homura. "I was born in Inazuma and raised for 10 years there. When the vision hunt decree started to hit the hardest, my family decided to escape, so we took a small boat and started sailing. My parents gave their lives to get me safely to an island, where I survived for one year before the previous Captain of the Alcor and the crew saw my light signals asking for help. Beidou told me she was having breakfast when a strong beam of light hit the window and she saw where the reflection was coming from when she alerted the captain. They came and picked me up from that island and took me in as part of the crew after I told them I had no family left." said Homura (this is briefed, it took Homura almost and hour to tell the entire story, possible future story). He looked to his side to find Hana with tears in her eyes. "You had to go through all of that at such a young age?! I'm so sorryyyy!" she said. "Ahh don't worry about it! I found a new family as part of the crux, so there's nothing to be sad about." he said. Hana wiped the tears off her face, and turned around to see Beidou walking towards them. "Hana! I see you've met Homura! You two getting along?" she said. "Ah? Yeah! He was just telling me about how you saved him from being alone in an island." said Hana. "Yes! Still remember that day as if it were yesterday!" she said. "I gave him that eyepatch when I saw the cut he had on his eye. He survived a long year in that island, to this day I can't believe such an intelligent kid isn't working as an alchemist or alongside Ningguang with the Liyue Tianquan or Keqing with the Qixing!" she added. "Stop it sis! You're embarrassing me!" said Homura. BAMMMM. 

The Alcor was hit strongly. "What was that?!" Asked Hana. "Go to my room to safety Hana! Homura! Come with me to the bow of the ship!" said Beidou going from laughing happily to ready to defend the ship. "Let me help Beidou! I'm pretty strong!" said Hana, taking out her Jade Spear. "I know you are,but... Ahhh, FINE! JUST DON'T GET HURT!" said Beidou. "Follow me!". They all ran towards the front of the Alcor, where they found a member of the crew. "Captain! We've been hit by a sea monster! Should we load the cannons?!" she asked. "Load them up, but don't fire unless I give the order, it could attract more of these monsters." answered Beidou. "Any ideas guys? What should we do?" asked Beidou. Homura thought for a moment and remembered Hana had a cryo vision. "Hana, do you think you could freeze the water beneath us so that we can attack directly?" he asked. "Leave it to me!" she replied. "Then let's go with this, Hana, you will grow some vines from the Alcor and freeze the water under us, connecting the Alcor  making an ice platform, I will attract the monster, and once it attacks, Beidou, you know what to do, got it?" asked Homura. "We're ready, let's do this!" they answered. 

The three of them ran towards the side of the ship, and Hana jumped towards the water, while creating a bed of flowers under her, she took her polearm and hit the flowers beneath her, creating a large platform of thick ice. Homura and Beidou followed behind her, and Homura ran towards the end of the platform. He took out his catalyst, at first it looked like an emerald orb, but the gem inside was white as snow, surrounded by two crimson red rings. He created a small yet incredibly bright orb of fire behind one side of the gem and a strong beam of light came out the other side of it, hitting the water. "It's heading toward us!" said Homura. "Im ready for the counter Homura!" said Beidou, walking towards where he was with her claymore. "It's 20 seconds away from here!" he warned them. "Wait a moment... It submerged! I can't see it!" said Homura worried. "PREPARE FOR IMPACT!!!" Shouted Beidou, seeing how the creature was beginning to emerge from under them. Hana had already used all of her own energy to create such a big platform, but she remembered Kusanali was still in their room. She took a deep breath and her eyes began to glow and her hair to wave with the air. With all her strengths she made the platform grow, making it into a pillar reaching towards the sea floor. The creature hit the pillar, but continued to swim, breaking more ice every time. Beidou ran towards where Hana was and prepared to counter the creature's attack, and right when the monster broke through the ice below them, a purple bolt of thunder came down from the sky, activating Beidou's shield. "DO IT HOMURA!" she Shouted. "But it could hurt you!" he Replied. "Shut up and do it!!!" she replied. Homura took sand from a bag he had and threw it up in the air, melting it and turning it into multiple screens of glass that increased the power of his light beam, which he shot directly at Beidou's shield. Beidou kept the counter for a few seconds while Homura shot at her with all his strength, and when the creature came up from under them, she released the counter, cutting the creature from inside in many pieces. Hana kept making the platform while the creature was destroyed so that neither Beidou or Homura would fall into the water. "Are you both okay?!" asked Beidou, walking out of the creature's body. "So the person who literally got eaten by a giant sea creature is asking us if we're okay?" asked Homura. "Of course we are! What about you Beidou?!" asked Hana worried. She ran over to where Beidou was and saw all the burns she had from the light beam hitting her almost directly. She tackled her and rested Beidou's head on her laps as she began to heal her. "You can't just do things like that! Think about other people's feelings, some might be really sad if you weren't there with them anymore!" said Hana crying. "I-... I'm sorry..." said Beidou. Hana carried Beidou to the ship as Homura followed them. "I'll be heading to my cabin now, make sure she gets some rest Hana." said Homura. "Sure will Homura! Now go get some rest yourself, you must be tired." said Hana. Homura left and Hana kept carrying Beidou to her room. "I'm going to miss you Beidou..." Said Hana. Beidou didn't know how to respond, she just blushed. "Thank you Hana, I'll miss you too..." she said. "We still have one more day until I leave, but I wanted to thank you for all these experiences and memories we've made together, they really mean a lot to me!" said Hana. "You... you're gonna make me cry!" said Beidou, wiping small tears from her eyes. "I don't want to say goodbye, I want to stay here, stay with you..." said Hana. "I wish that were possible, but that can't happen, our lives go in different directions, and I can't just leave my crew like that with no one to command them..." said Beidou letting out more tears. "I don't want to leave you! I really want to be with you Beidou! Please!" said Hana, also crying. "This can be solved in another way" said Homura, walking up the stairs towards them. "You could leave me in charge of the Crux for as long as you want, and you could come visit us every now and then to check if everything is alright." he added. "First of all, don't spy Homura, second... You'd take on that responsibility for me?" asked Beidou. "Of course sis! I know how much you love adventure, and it'll do you good to spend time with someone that isn't the crux fleet. That's one option, another option would be to take me with you and leave the Alcor to Chief Juza, I'm sure he'd take care of both the ship and the crew." he said. "Well I think this decision is up to Hana, so... what do you think about me coming with you on your journey Hana?" asked Beidou. "That would be great! Are you sure you'll be okay though? You're probably miss your ship and your crew..." said Hana. "I might, but I'm sure I'd regret not coming along with you!" she said. "Then yes! Please come with us to Inazuma! And you can come with us too Homura! I'm sure that you'll get along with Kusanali, you two are both geniuses!" said Hana, with a big smile on her face. "Alright! Seems like the matter is settled, I shall announce this to the crew tonight, but for now we should go to my room and rest Hana, you go get ready Homura, pack up only basic things." said Beidou. "Okay!" said both of them.
