A Cloud's Silver Lining [KazuScara Original]

Part 1 - Who is he?

The dark clouds filled the air as the crystalflies hovered high above the ground. Kazuha chuckled at the sight of seeing the Traveler struggling to collect one.

"Here, let me help you." Kazuha swiftly used his Anemo abilities to sweep them up, letting them grab a crystalfly.

"Oh! Thanks, Kazuha!" Paimon thanked as Traveler turned to him smiling and nodding.

Kazuha stood by, eagerly waiting for what he would run into next. He was taking a stroll when he bumped into Traveler and Paimon.

"I'll be off now," he waved.

As he walked off, the wild breeze waved a leaf down near his palm. He smiled then began to hum a tune.

Kazuha lifted his head back up and saw another crystalfly, except the only difference was that it was single. He decided to follow it to see where it led.

The electro crystalfly flew for a while until Kazuha got distracted from it. He saw the sight of a lonely figure sitting at the edge of the cliff.

The lightning from the ground under made a suspenseful yet calm mood as Kazuha slowly stepped closer to observe the figure.

The person was almost completely still. He couldn't tell what gender the figure was, for a large hat was covering their head. Under the hat dangled a few things as they sat on a dark wood.

Kazuha silently walked over, trying not to let his emotions get the best of him. What answered him was a cold stare—the person was a male, and he had short, indigo colored hair.

Kazuha started to hold the leaf up and made a tune using it. The man looked back down, giving nothing but silence. The lightning came crashing down near them and the man still didn't move an inch.

"Why are you here?" the mysterious man scowled in an unwelcoming tone.

Kazuha paused for a moment, the tune stopping. He held the leaf onto his lap.

"Are you okay?"

The man paused in silence, as if he was questioning what to think and say.

"...I.."

There was a long pause as he seemed to give up on talking.

"Why do you care?" he said angrily with a big mix of emotion. The man's face turned angry and cold. "My life is a lie. You're just like the others!" He sighed.

Kazuha's pupils looked in every direction, and soon came to look at the below civilizations. He soon came to one question.

"...Well.. Who are you?"
