Chapter 9

You faced the Ruin Guard and huffed as it powered up. Apparently, it had been causing trouble for passing merchants and travelers, so Katheryne asked if you could take care of it. It..looked a lot bigger than the other ones..

You grabbed your polearm and widened your eyes when it stood up straight. That was indeed a lot larger than the other Ruin Guards..(It was actually a Ruin Grader btw :'D )

AN: No way in hell am I writing that long of a fight scene, I suck at writing them anyway

You watched as the machine's core flickered and you battle cried dramatically, rushing towards it and hopping up onto the top, stabbing your polearm into the eye. It made a few gurgling noises before locking up.

You slid off and stood in front of it, waiting for it to fall. What you didn't know was that it already was falling. By the time you noticed, it had fallen beside you, barely missing you. UNFORTUNATELY, a larger piece fell off and crushed your arm, pinning you to the ground.

"FUCK!!" You yelped in pain as you heard a loud crack. "OHHH MY MOTHERFUCKING ARM IS BROKEN, DAMMIT!!" You shouted, doing your best to push the metal off. It barely moved. You winced in pain and choked back painful tears, swaying your free arm around.

Water streamed around the metal and lifted it enough for you to pull your arm out. Sure, you could heal things like burns or cuts, BUT NOT THIS SHIT! ESPECIALLY NOT NOW!! Your knees shook and you stumbled to the ground, holding onto your shoulder.

Your arm didn't look too bad, other than all the blood and the fact that it was broken, IT LOOKED NORMAL :D. You shut your eyes tightly and stood up, walking slowly to Mondstadt.

You walked into the gates, reassuring Swan that you were alright, telling him you just needed to find Barbara, and grumbled as the sun came back out from the clouds. It was so fucking hot holy shit. You rolled your eyes and made it up the stairs, past the fountain, up the other stairs, up the other stairs, up the other stairs, up the other stairs, up the other stairs, and up the other stairs.

so many fucking stairs

You opened the door to the Cathedral and smiled weakly at Barbara who stared at your arm in shock. "Can you like..help me?" You asked her. "Oh! Of course, right this way please!" She beckoned, leading you to a room. It was the same one you were in when you first got back.

She grabbed some bandages and streamed water towards your arm while she looked through cabinets. The water rested on your arm and you hissed in pain. "Is it broken?" Barbara asked. "Yea.." You chuckled nervously. "Alright, the water is gonna snap it back, it's probably going to hurt and be sore for the next few days, but you'll be fine!" "Wait what?"

Your arm suddenly snapped and your jaw dropped. The pain was so bad, that you couldn't even make a noise. The water continued to do its job and you squeaked quietly, a tear running down your face.

"Are you alright??" Barbara asked with worry, wiping the tear away. "Yep! Totally fine!" You trembled, shuddering. "Alright, the bleeding should be stopped now so.." She mumbled grabbing some bandages. You looked at your arm and raised your eyebrows in shock.

Other than a crap ton of bruises and a few small cuts, it was perfectly fine! Barbara wrapped your arm with bandages and you glanced at her occasionally. "Barbara, you are an absolute miracle worker.." You hummed, rubbing your wrist. "Oh, I wouldn't say that.." She chuckled, rubbing her neck.
