          When you walked through The Celestial Realm, you had this aching feeling constantly tugging at your heart, not knowing how to feel. You're sure the reason you were feeling this way was because of you finding out about your feelings for the many people you held dear. Though, the longer you walked through the realm, ignoring the odd stares you were getting, you came to realize that the feeling was more that of dread. Dread for what though, leaving Mk and the others by themselves? You're sure they'd be fine.

Admits your thoughts, you were pulled from them by a woman screaming in the distance, you turning your head to see a familiar pair of grayish blue and light yellow eyes. "Hey, hey! Wait for me!" She shouted as she ran over to you, picking up the ends of her hanfu as she ignored everyone's awkward stares. "You walk awfully fast, you know that Piggy?" The immortal you had found on New Years gave you a soft arm slap, you blinking in confusion as she did so.

You stopped yourself from rolling your eyes and just turned back around, starting to walk the way to Nezha's temple. "I didn't know you were down around here too." You muttered through your teeth, your grip tightening on the bottle of water you had bought. The only reason you were down here was because you had forgotten your water in a rush to get out of the apartment. Nezha scolded you a little, playfully of course, before handing you some of his currency and telling you to go and get some water at the markets.

The immortal laughed, not picking up on the fact you didn't want to talk to her, and marched right next to you, holding her head high as she waved to people on the streets. "And I didn't know you were either! What an odd stroke of luck!" She gushed as she put her hands into a prayer position, sighing blissfully as you avoided eye contact. "Speaking of, I haven't seen you in oh so long, which part of the realm do you live in?" She asked you, getting closer to your side and rubbing her arm against it.

You blinked at her and gave her a side eye, watching how she didn't flinch and just smiled brightly at you, eventually sighing and giving in. "I don't... live up here." You said in a low tone, looking at the people around you. "I just come up here for training, I usually never come down to the market. I just forgot my water today is all." You explained, hopping she would catch the hint and leave you. However, she did no such thing, in fact she just squeeled and clapped her hands, doing a few spins in place in her own celebration.

You tried to take this moment as a time to slip away, but she was swift on her feet and was soon wrapping her arms around one of your own. "Oh, you're trying to be a Celestial Guard? Right? Oh, you must be so strong then!" She giggled to herself as you slowly felt yourself lose your life source, despite being immortal. You just didn't answer her and continued to drag the black haired girl down the marbled streets, many people pointing and laughing, claiming that this girl has claimed another victim.

You kissed your teeth at the idea, were there others before you that this girl pried on, and where are they now? "Oh, how very rude of me, I just now realized I haven't told you my name yet!" You sighed as you saw Nezha's Temple slowly come more into view, it's already to late for names now, you wished you never met this girl ever again. "I'm Feng Lian, you're Y/n if I remember correctly?" You nodded your head, not really caring for her name anymore. "What's your surname?" You paused your walking and stood still for a moment, Feng Lian not sensing the tension that grew from the question.

You looked at the ground for a minute, holding the water in your hand tightly before looking upwards and starting to walk again, Feng Lian's hold on your arm dropping. "L/n." You said dully as Feng Lian stood there for a moment, the busy streets passing her by as she watched you walk away, a small smile on her face. You sighed when you noticed she wasn't walking with you anymore, pushing past the crowd and into a clearer path.
