Hands out stretched as you tried to grab something, you continued to fall through the air nothing stopping you. Eyes closing, you just accepted your fate knowing that you wouldn't die. You had already tried falling down a mountain once before and although you felt the full brunt of the pain, your death wasn't written in the books.

You laughed to yourself of how troublesome the situation was. The whole walk up the mountain was tiring and tedious to say the least and now here you were fall down the mountain that you had climbed up due to the mystery man that had pushed you off.

"Y/N," you heard Paimon's high-pitched scream as something else came down from the mountain dropping towards you.

"KAZUHA!" Aether yelled out as you saw his figure trying to catch the falling body.

Eyes wide open, you saw Kazuha diving down towards you. Eyes locking with his, you gritted your teeth questioning why he had decided to follow you down the mountain.

Soon enough, Kazuha had reached you and you felt his strong arms envelop you in a hug. Once again, your heart felt warm with what Kazuha had done. He not only helped you, reignited your flaming passion to find an answer, now he jumped down the mountain to fall with you.

Suddenly realizing something, you grabbed Kazuha's face, "I won't die if I fall from this height but what about you!"

"Don't worry," Kazuha smiled at you, his confidence melting your heart.

Just as the two of you were about to his the ground, Kazuha summoned a gust of wind below him. Being lifted up by the wind by a bit, the two of you slowly made your way to the ground while being supported by his anemo power which he had called upon.

As the two of you landed, you slapped Kazuha's face, "Why did you do that! You know I won't die so why did you jump off the mountain to save me?"

Tears threatening to fall because of frustrated you were about the situation, you hugged your knees.

Kazuha watched you silently not saying anything. Head looking up at him, you saw your hand mark on his cheek and gasped in surprise from how strong you had slapped him.

Standing up, you looked at him with concern, "I'm so sorry. I- I freaked out."

Placing your hand gently over the spot where you had slapped him, you gave it a soft massage in hopes of possibly soothing the pain from your slap. You clenched your other hand which laid at your side as you thought of how you didn't control yourself.

"I was so worried," you shook your head. "You know that I wouldn't die yet you still came down the mountain to save me."

Kazuha gave you a smile while chuckling a little and patting your head with his slightly calloused hands, "I know you won't die but that doesn't mean that you won't feel the pain."

"Why," you hugged Kazuha while nuzzling your face into his chest. "Why are you willing to do so much for me?"

Kazuha hugged you while simultaneously patting your head. This selflessness of his to help you, you couldn't help but feel guilty thinking that that were using him.

"Don't worry about it," Kazuha embraced you, adding a little more strength in his hug to pull you closer to him.

"It seems you didn't die," the same voice from the person who had pushed you called out.

Both of you turning your heads towards where the voice was coming from, you and Kazuha immediately stood up and brought your swords out to point it at the blonde haired man that was casually walking towards you. His cold and calculating blue eyes gave you a warning that you would have to be careful. He was the one who had pushed you off the cliff and because of that, you couldn't help but feel like you wanted to cut him down to size.

"Why do you want to kill her?" Kazuha questioned the man, hand by the hilt of the sword that was at his hip.

Glaring at the man, Kazuha was prepared to attack him at any moment to protect you. He didn't know how he was able to go down the mountain or push you down without either one of you noticing so he made sure to be more cautious.

The man continued to glare at you, ignoring Kazuha. Slowly walking towards you with his fist clenched, your heart started beating faster knowing that you had to stop him where he stood.

“What do you want with me,” you muttered through your teeth, annoyed and confused with the situation that you were in.

Your vision shining by your side as you collected your power in preparation to fight, you waited for the blonde man’s response. Once again tightening your hand around the hilt of the sword, you let out a small breath.

Out of nowhere, the man ran towards you, his hand pulsing with blue energy. Quickly reacting, you held your sword with both hands to defend against his attack. Just in the nick of time, his hand met your sword, clutching the blade as if it didn’t harm him. He continued to push your sword and you grunted, questioning just how strong the man was.

His hand bleeding and running down the sword, you enveloped your sword with electro energy and gave an abrupt push to make him back up. Sliding on the ground, he looked at you once more, his eyes glaring at you.

“How dare you act like you didn’t do anything,” the man stood up. “How dare you pretend that you aren’t at fault after you betrayed us.”

‘What are you talking about?” You ran towards him and summoned a blade of electricity to slash at him. ‘I have no idea what I did and I have no idea who you even are so just leave me alone.”

Jumping up and collecting a large amount of power, you slashed down at the man putting all your weight into this attack.
