My first surprise of the day.

I woke up.

Normally after being pretty much impaled by purple energy shards, people don't wake up.

Mainly because they die.

Granted, I've never died so I have no idea what dying is really like, but I've always woken up having trouble breathing due to a sickness I've had all my life, and today was no different.

As I said before, I'm no master at death, but I'd think that dead people can't get sick, but I digress.

I sleepily open my eyes to a white ceilinged room. Still, it's gray enough to not be a hospital room. I sit up and find myself in a small, mysterious bedroom.

There is a single bed in the middle of the room facing the door, the one I woke up on, with white sheets and a heavy black comforter. The walls have no decorations except for a painting of the sky. There is a wooden desk/dresser to the left. On it are some scattered papers, a few notebooks, and a picture frame. The picture is blocked out by a glare, however, so I can't see what's on it. There is a white laced window right behind the bed. There is a beige carpet on the floor, and a small closet on the wall with the door.

A black and purple backpack rests on a hanger on the door.

The door is closed.

I get off the bed and look at myself.

I carry no injuries from my recent attack, surprisingly enough. I am wearing something different, however. I'm dressed in navy sweatpants and a black shirt in which the collar is hanging around my shoulders leaving my neck and a little under my shoulders exposed. I'm ninety percent sure that this shirt has been classified as a "girls" shirt.

Also, why black?

Black is one of my least favorite colors.

I move my eyes over to the desk/dresser and see something that I haven't seen in a very long time.

A silver laptop.

I gasp with shock as I realize what'd happened to me.

That's why Xiao said the attack wouldn't kill me.

I'd been sent through realities.

Normally when this happens, I can easily get back with my powers, but since they got stripped away by the Sustainer of Heavenly Principals, I'm a little trapped.

Wait.

I don't have my gloves or my cape/scarf.

Also, my earring has changed into a different one.

That means I can't use Anemo/Geo/Electro.

I'm completely powerless.

Granted, if I have a laptop in this reality, there probably won't be any monsters or Hilichurls.

Hopefully.

I open the laptop and the screen turns on to show a lockscreen with what looks like a modernized version of the church in Mondstadt.

I backcheck my memories and log on.

My wallpaper looks like the view from Starsnatch Cliff. It's pretty, not going to lie

I look for any more information on myself in this reality.

I can only rely so much on my double memories.

Waiting for the web browser to open, I glance at the picture frame and nearly cry.

It's a picture of me and Lumine.
