𝐏𝐋𝐔𝐓𝐎 ☹︎ VIKTOR ARCANE

CHP 10. HER

" WHY NOT, I TRUST YOU "

Tears were burying in Viktor's eyes once he realises Y/N wasn't at work, why was he getting so emotional? She probably got a cold or something so that's why she's staying at home. But he hated the fact that she wasn't there because he was already better, a glimmer of him shone through when she told her that they could both go back up to that tower once Viktor was better. And Viktor tried his best to get better for 3 days they were already seeing improvements in him. He just needed to rest often, that's all...

Shit... Viktor didn't even realise it but the hexcore was already changing. He inspects it with such curiosity. Why was it... changing..? He went to touch it when his nose started to bleed. A few droplets dropped down onto his desk as he stares at it. He smudges the blood with his fingers as he looks back at the hexcore. It started to... contract and move. Viktor felt like a sort of connection with the hexcore.

So if the hexcore could respond to human DNA what could all the things he could do to help him?

Viktor ran to grab his notes and started to jut his ideas down. His brain overflowing with things that he could experiment on. Completely forgot about Y/N and everyone and everything else. His work could kill him.

...

"Why can't you tell me?!", Y/N asks, annoyed at how Sevika-- for the 3rd time today after those other 3 days of asking for things that could help with Viktor's disease. "Fine, I'll tell you", Sevika puts the cigar in her mouth as she eyes Y/N who eagerly sat up in her chair, listening intensely to what Sevika was about to say. "Shimmer".

Shimmer?", Y/N asks, looking up at Sevika who shrugs her shoulder. "Look at my arm", Y/N hums in response as she stares, even more, Sevika's whole arm was metal, the structure looked a bit... unstable but the design and purpose for it were definitely there. "And when I add this liquid", Sevika takes out a tube that was filled with that same purple-pink liquid she first saw in the undercity. "My arm turns superhuman".

Y/N stares in amazement. Her face suddenly turned bright red. "Can I take a look at it?".

Sevika blinks and agrees, "why not, I trust you".

Y/N's eyes soften at those words. Trust is a strong word to use. But Sevika must feel the eagerness to help and to save Zaun in Y/N. Y/N sat on the couch that Sevika was sitting on, her fingers delicately touching the metal, she eyed every nook and cranny of the steel arm. Her face contorts into a delighted one. "The base of the arm is really well made, being able to withstand a punch, that's for sure, but eh, the support could use a little more work but I know you probably had it for a long time-- OH! Where do you insert the tube?!",

Sevika nearly felt overwhelmed. She didn't expect someone to... care so much but still be so delicate with it. Her eyes soften as she stares at Y/N's excited face, her face practically lit up, twinkling like the stars. She... couldn't help herself. Sevika-- with her other hand, tucks a bit of stray hair behind Y/N's ear, Y/N immediately stopped her cute rants as she looks up at Sevika, feeling her face go hot.

"You twinkle, I-I don't know why but that's what I see in you, star".

Y/N felt her stomach turn, but not in a good way. "Please... don't use that, you're not allow--", Y/N stops herself as she softly sighs. "Jeez, What am I saying?", Y/N chuckles and looks back at Sevika. The little window provides sunlight that hit Y/N's eyes and smiles almost perfectly as Sevika stares at her.

Someone must have fallen in love.

...

"Alright, I taught you the basics, didn't I?", Y/N nods, it was the next day, Sevika was teaching Y/N how to properly fight and not run away which Y/N does very effortlessly. Sevika raises her eyebrows at Y/N to invite her to fight.

She takes a deep breath and lunges in with one foot. Her hand

Sevika blocks all of Y/N's attacks almost immediately, she gets frustrated with herself as she doubles back to see the situation when Sevika lunges at her. She couldn't think properly, nearly getting slammed down to the ground but then Y/N grins and sees the opportunity to kick Sevika at the back of the knee if she manoeuvres herself around Sevika. Sevika knew what Y/N was trying to do and she started to play with her knees bent. Y/N 'tch'ed at this.

But in the end she was still able to kick them behind the knee and Y/N went in for the final blow.

Panting for air as she looks down at Sevika who smiles up at her. The wooden knife so close to Sevika's throat as Y/N's loose hair fall a little, her mouth slightly gaped as she took in breaths of air. The both of them could practically hear Y/N's heartbeat.

Sevika couldn't help but grin more to Y/N. "You're really, really hot, starlight".

Y/N's face turns a little red. But she dismisses Sevika and turns away.

"Woooow", It was Jinx's voice, "very impressive, mhm, mhm, just don't kiss on this floor please?", She says and rolls her eyes and stares daggers at Y/N. "Jinx, I thought you were going with Silco to do something?", Sevika asks, getting up from the floor. "Oh, I was? Oh... heh, well sorry", she giggles and sits on a bar stool, laying her head on the counter as she plays with a grenade she held.

Jinx and Y/N never really got on well, but Y/N was determined to find out how she makes those grenades. She sits beside her and eyes those grenades, Jinx looks up at her and furrows her eyebrows. "What? What do you want?!", Y/N chuckles softly, "can I see that grenade?", Jinx blinks and looks down at her grenade, she looks back up at Y/N and reluctantly gives it to her.

Y/N examines it, basically taking it apart and having a good look at the mechanics of it. "It's really easy to defuse", Y/N mentions, she eyes looking at the wires, "you know what some people do? They just add fake wires everywhere to make it harder for someone to defuse, but mm... the form is a bit... dusty but you did a really great job at the um explosion bit".

"So?!", Jinx asks wanting to snatch the grenade back, "were you just gonna criticise me??", Y/N laughs and shakes her head, "I can help you make better ones",

Jinx's eyes widen, she looks at Y/N with fear in her eyes. Jinx was scared to open up. Y/N's smile turns into a frown, "why are you scared..?", Jinx shakes her head. "Y-Yea... you can help me make better ones...", Y/N's face immediately lit up and nods.

Wasn't she getting comfortable with these Zaunites huh?

COMMENTS: A LOVE RIVAL MAYBE??? O.O I love Sevika so much and I think she deserves to be more in fanfics and stuff like that cause I um, I might be a bit of a Sevika kinnie if I do say so myself ohoho LMAO but still! Y/N might have to choose between protecting Zaun or protecting Piltover, which would she choose~
