LUX'S POV

It was the next day. Lux had her hearing with the council on her release. Lux was woken up to an enforcer opening her cell and calling out her name.

"Inmate 2137, please stand." The enforcer said. Lux turned around quickly as enforcers are never this polite.

"Here to take me to my death?" Lux said.

"No, your hearing is today and I was assigned as your body guard." The enforcer scoffed.

"I think yourself lucky that you are stuck with me all day." Lux said as she walked over towards the enforcer to lead her the way.

"So... what's Piltover like?" Lux asked with a quick smile.

"I will not answer such a question." The enforcer said.

"Hmm. What's your name?" Lux asked.

"Caitlyn Kiramman." The enforcer said.

"How fancy!" Lux said.

"And your's?" Caitlyn asked with a subtle smile on her face.

"Luxanna Crownsguard of Demacia." Lux said with a giggle.

"You're from Demacia?" Caitlyn asked. Lux nodded back at her. She knew it wasn't a good idea telling the enforcer girl about her but Caitlyn was different, she had good intentions.

"But you probably think I'm a dangerous rouge person who needs to die for their crimes." Lux said dropping her gaze.

"Why would I think such a thing. We are the city of progress having someone like you here would really help out our city." Caitlyn said. What Caitlyn had just said cleared Lux's nerves a bit, it made her realise she might actually get out of this in one piece.

What about Vi?

"I have a question enforcer Caitlyn. If I am to be released today, is there any possibility you could release someone else?" Lux asked.

"Well it depends on their crimes. And the councils opinion of course, although I could-" Caitlyn was cut off by Lux.

"Please. She's my girlfriends sister, she needs her." Lux said. Caitlyn gave the blonde a quick smile.

"I'll try my best." Caitlyn said.

~~~

The two had arrived at the councils meeting where Lux's restraints were removed and she was presented to the council.

"Luxanna Crownsguard, you have been brought forth today to discuss your use of arcane talents in Piltover." Councillor Medarda said.

"Is it true you used your magic against an enforcer to cause harm?" Councillor Heimerdinger said.

"No. I thought they were hurting my.. my friend. It was an accident, I didn't mean to hurt the enforcer." Lux said with a worried face.

"It is too my knowledge that you are not from Piltover. Where are you from?" Councillor Kiramman said.

"I am from Demacia. I was born into a family of mages, I didn't know I had arcane talents. I was kicked out because of it." Lux said with a frown on her face. Lux looked over at Caitlyn who gave her a subtle thumbs up and a smile.

"We are to believe you could help the city with our understandings of magic through the use of science. Councillor Tallis suggested we release you on one condition. You are to help the scientists understand the way of the arcane." Councillor Medarda said.

The other councillors all raised their arms as lights around the table began lighting up.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

"It has been decided. Luxanna Crownsguard of Demacia will now reside with the Kiramman house hold, as Jayces understudy."

I'm really free!

~~~

The hearing was over and Lux was now finally free of her hand cuffs and locked up life. Lux walked over to Caitlyn.

"Hey roomie." Lux said to Caitlyn as she punched her arm.

"You got out of it easy. But welcome home." Caitlyn said.

~~~

The Kiramman's had taken Lux home for the night to show Lux her new home. Lux was amazed, it was just like her home back in Demacia.

"This feels like home." Lux said to Caitlyn. As she was dragged up stairs to her new room.

"This is where you'll sleep. I'll be just across the hallway if you need me." Caitlyn said as she winked at Lux and walked away.

What was that for?

Lux looked around the room touching every chest of draws and piece of furniture. This place was actually more beautiful than her home back in Demacia.

Lux walked over to Caitlin's room and knocked on the door. Caitlyn opened to door and let Lux in.

"Hey, do you know anything about an attack that happened in Piltover?" Caitlyn asked.

"What kind of attack?" Lux asked.

"I am to believe that the person who stole the gemstone is from the under-city. Did you know of anyone who would do something like this?" Caitlyn said.

The gemstone Jinx stole...

"No I'm not sure. Sorry Caitlyn." Lux said as she dropped her head.

Caitlyn was after Jinx. She had to warn her.

"I think I'm going to head to bed I'm really exhausted." Lux said.

"Of course. Goodnight Lux." Caitlyn said with a soft smile. Lux just smiled back as she walked to her room to plan how she was going to sneak out and tell Jinx.
