Ei's Chosen

United: Cryo and Electro

Book One: Chapter Nine

"Yes. We are the Raiden Shogun."

"... Huh?"

"A lot to take in, I understand." She speaks walking to him.

Taking in every inch of her being, his eyes burn it all. Clearly seeming like that of a young adult, the words departed from her soft lips carries volume from experience. A perfect blend of stature in the way she walks. The subtly though effect sway of her hips matching her very eminence. Even for Relon, he can tell that much. The woman before him isn't one to be trifled with.

Long braided violet hair behind her back, a hairpin with pale violet flowers resembling morning glories and a fan-shaped piece. Her eyes a powerful purple with a beauty mark below her right eye. A small crimson ribbon acting as a choker and a dark-colored bodysuit underneath her kimono, an assortment of patterns in shades of purple and crimson. On the back of her outfit, she wears a crimson bow with tassels. She wears dark purple thigh-high stockings with small diamond openings at the top and high-heeled sandals; the one on the right is adorned with two of the same violet flowers on her hairpin.

An attire he feels he hasn't seen before, but the power he can feel exuding from the woman- no. From the goddess before him all of a sudden made him gain feelings of thought he couldn't comprehend.

"You've become slightly infatuated by me. I am quite relieved." She smiles, stopping right before him. "I didn't know what your first thoughts would be once we were reunited."

"You knew me before I lost your memories?"

"Lost? They are not lost." She corrects holding out a hand for a sphere of electricity to appear in her hand. "I am holding onto them as per your request."

"What do you mean... request?"

"Now isn't the time."

"But-"

Placing a finger to his lips, a jolt courses through his body. Widening, his vision zooms from his body lodged in the snowy cliff, to the Electro Army over him to Ganyu and company battling Trishula to Qiqi.

Widening, her smile remains as her finger lowers before stepping away.

"They need you, Relon. We all do." She says closing her eyes, her body levitating as she once again takes to her meditative stance.

"How-'

"We are one. Therefore we shall always be together. Should you wish to speak once the battle is over, you simply must think. Preferably of me." She opens an eye exhibiting a small smile. "Now go." Both eyes closed once more as light encompasses his vision.

Feeling the soreness return in full force, Relon steadily blinks his eyes open to the clear sight of Trishula surrounded by the Cryo Army. Sara, Ganyu, and the others fighting their hardest against the monster.

"Was all of that... a dream...?" A flash of the Raiden Shogun's face crosses his mind as he breaks his arm of the rubble. "No... All of that was real...! Which means...!" Gritting his teeth, a blast of electricity erupts causing the group above the cliff to stumble as a blur of colors zooms into the air before landing on the ground. "I'm still needed." He raises to stand before Miko.

"Good to have you two back." She greets.

"There's a lot I don't understand so..." Looking from his hands to Miko and the rest behind her and the army behind them, he raises his head reverting to normal. "Please, lend me your strength."
