Seconds later, both of you were aware that you weren't the only ones in the building.

You heard discreet shuffling, and you could literally feel your anxiety rising to the max.

Soon after, you both also heard whispering. It sounded like they were arguing. Over something stupid, I might add.

???

"No- You go!"

???

"I don't wanna! It's scary out there!"

You and Xiao looked at each other, confused.

These two people who were making such a fuss were hiding under a work desk, it was pretty tall.

You took out a random gun that just happened to be fully loaded on the ground and ran to look at what was on the other side of the desk.

Quickly, you pointed the gun right at the two.

???

"Hey- You take that thing out of my face right now!..."

Said the boy, also short, who was holding onto a tall boy's arm.

Tall Boy

"I don't know what that is, but we're innocent, I promise!"

You

"Oh?..."

Xiao

"Aren't you... Aren't you Childe?..."

You

"What are you talking about... He definitely doesn't look like a child."

Xiao

"No- Y/N, that's the name he goes by."

You snickered.

You

"Pfft, Childe."

Childe

"Ah- Yes! You're Xiao, right?"

Xiao

"Yes, that's me."

You

"You know each other?..."

Xiao

"Since he's here, this also must mean that more are here."

As for the short boy with the attitude who was clinging onto Childe's arm, was confused.

???

"Who's the person with that dangerous-looking thing?"

Xiao

"Who are you?"

Childe

"Oh- This is Sc-"

???

"I can introduce myself, dumbass."

Childe

"Okay, okay! I hear you."

You

"Does this mean th-"

???

"I'm Scaramouche, another one of the harbingers."

He rudely cut you off, exaggerating his voice.
