Oh, the Misery - Arcane Male Reader Insert

VIII: Oil a̸n̶d Water

The warning horn took over the early hours of Piltover, immediately prompting its citizens into action

Amongst the chaos, Vi guided Caitlyn towards a hallway and laid her to rest against a wall. The young woman grunted as she tried to fight back the pain that now coursed through her leg

Vi: Will you be okay?

Vi placed down the canister she had with her and tapped Cait's arched knee to get her attention

Vi: I'll be right back

Cait nodded and breathed her answer

Caitlyn: Okay...

Vi got up and rushed to the corner, but quickly hid behind it once a large group of Enforcers clamored past her. All carrying their rifles as they hurried towards the scene

The brawler could only see the crowd of armored men and women making their way into the bridge. She looked at the scene she had just fleed. Thoughts of her sister flooded her mind, when--

Caitlyn: It's gone

Vi looked back at Cait, who was staring at the canister in her hands with utter shock

Vi: What?

Caitlyn: It was all for nothing

Vi lowered her head at the news, knowing how much violence was spilled over an empty canister

But that's when something else crossed her mind, and as she looked around, her concerns were voiced

Vi: Wait...

"Where's Y/N?"

---------------------------------

A lone figure sprinted through the smoking remains of the carnage that had taken place just moments ago. His breathing became more frantic as he tried to get away from the scene as fast as he could, he could hear the Enforcers closing in

In his hands, was the body of his younger sister, holding on to dear life, and finding an odd sense of comfort in whoever was taking her away

That night at the bridge, you had made a promise. You promised Jinx that you would return for her, and when you did, you were met with the heartwrenching scene of her burnt body, barely breathing but still alive

Ekko was nowhere to be found, so you promptly picked her up and ran as far and fast as you could

Going back to Piltover was suicide, they would shoot you in the spot, and Jinx would receive the same grim fate. So you ran away from it all

But that's when you came across three figures on the other side of the bridge. It was Silco, and with him, were two bodyguards

When they tried to approach you, you took a step back and tried to protect Jinx. The man glared at you, but when he noticed the girl in your arms, that hatred transformed immediately into dread, into confusion

And into fear

And just like that, he wasn't the undercity's most feared kingpin

He was a worried father

And he was talking to a worried brother

Silco: What happened to her?

You: ᴀɴ ᴇxᴘʟᴏꜱɪᴏɴ ᴛᴏᴏᴋ ᴘʟᴀᴄᴇ. ɪ-ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴋɴᴏᴡ, ʙᴜᴛ ɪ ɴᴇᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ ᴛᴀᴋᴇ ʜᴇʀ ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴡʜᴇʀᴇ ꜱᴀꜰᴇ. ɴᴏᴡ

Thug: Boss. She has the gemstone

He pointed at Jinx. You looked down to see that she was clutching something in hand, something glowing
