Crack In The Sky

『 Returning A Copy 』

Y/n could've guessed anything else but going for missing books as what Lisa wanted them to do.

But here they were, a few months after their freak-out with powers, standing next to the woman.

They'd grown taller, they knew it, but not as tall as they wished to be. When their (h/c) reached the length where the tips would start glowing, they cut it before anyone would notice.

Other than that, Y/n looked like your normal 10-year-old. Short (h/c) hair, (e/c) eyes, and very quiet.

They stood next to Lisa, listening to the woman explain what they'd be doing for the day.

"I have a list of overdue books," Lisa summoned said list, "We'll be going from most important to least important."

"As in the latest to most recent?" Y/n asked.

Lisa snapped her fingers, "Bingo! I just need you as a second hand here."

"A force of persuasion?"

"Mhm," Lisa pat Y/n's head, "You're a little cutie. I know at least two on this list that will be persuaded by your sweet heart."

Y/n gave a smile and a nod, "Alright. Let's go then."

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

The list went through pretty easily, save for a few people here and there.

With those who tried retaliating, Lisa made quick work. They were practically begging for a chance to search for the overdue books after one minute.

Lisa and Y/n stood in front of one of the homes of the deeper section of Mondstadt, and Lisa looked over her list.

"This is the last one for the day," She smiled, "You're good at this. Maybe I can get you some stuff to get stronger naturally."

If their hair was still long, the tips would have glowed the horrid purple light. They gave a smile to cover up that thought, "I'd like that."

Lisa gave the door a knock, and a rough, male voice responded, "Who's there?"

"It's Lisa; the librarian," Lisa spoke up, "Your book is overdue."

"Oh dear! Let me let you in then while I search for it," A female voice spoke up, and the door creaked open. Y/n looked at Lisa, who just nodded along and walked inside.

The inside was lit only by little blue lights, that were strung up alongside small seashells. They reminded Y/n of Watasumi Island, and sure enough, they recognized the patterns.

They were from Watasumi Island.

Upon closer inspection, it seemed that things from Inazuma littered the walls. It mixed perfectly with the Mondstadt home, just so if an outsider were to enter, it would just seem like simple exotic items.

"Sorry about Y/n," Lisa explained, when the man of the home gave a weird look, "It's just a lovely apartment."

"Oh, thank you dear!" The woman laughed, "It's not what I had back at my first home, but it's enough to make the home more like there."

Y/n looked at the woman, "Are you from Watasumi Island?"

The woman's smile furthered, "I am! Aren't you a smart cookie?"
