.•What Once Was•. (vixreader)

A Nice Gesture.

.•2nd Person P.O.V

When Vi was done showing you the ultimate view of the Undercity, she began finding her way back towards her home.
"Alright, now I'm gonna go back to the rest of my 'gang', if you wanna tag along."
You nodded, knowing very well that if you declined, you would have nothing else to do.
Besides, that feeling of excitement seemed to only intensify after this girl's presence, and you didn't want to return back to the base just yet.
Not when this crazy adventure was just starting.
So, the both of you began walking, following along after her as she guided you towards another foreign path.

"My little sister was very eager to give you a thank you, but, I had to make sure you were safe to approach first." She brought up, finding the statement quite amusing. Her cerulean eyes drifted towards you, offering you a flicker of a smile.
You let out a small, exaggerated gasp, the realization of her ulterior motives dawning upon you.
"So that whole 'I knew you weren't bad since the start' thing was a lie? You just wanted to tell me thanks?! I feel betrayed."
The sentence came out dramatic on purpose, earning a scoff from Vi. But, it was then when you realized that her tour of the Undercity was probably offered to you as a form of thanks, and you prided yourself in figuring out her little 'secret'.

"Oh come on! You were a stranger, of course I had to make sure you were safe to approach, even though I was 98.99% sure you were."
She shrugged, her violet locks of hair swaying along her movements.
"And I'm no stranger now?"
The sentence left your lips with a bite of sarcasm, a sneaky grin on your face.
"Well, I mean, you aren't anymore. I say you're a good accomplice."
You chuckled.
"My, I feel flattered. Such a high status, and I've only known you for 2 hours, Vi."
The both of you continued to trot along, exchanging laughs along with bits and pieces of information of one another in hopes of not being 'accomplices' for very long.

And finally, after a short while of conversation and laughs, you were met with a building that seemed abandoned.
Though, you presumed it not to be, given as you saw the little blue haired girl from earlier -that was now obviouslyVi's sister- wandering about outside.
The little one seemed lost in thought, pacing back and forth almost in nervousness.
"Vi, You're back!"
She exclaimed once her eyes landed on her older kin, running over to envelop her in a hug.
"Hi Pow-pow, sorry I took long! It was for a good cause, though, because now you get to meet Y/n: the absolute savior of our heist."
Vi remarked, turning to you with an enthusiastic demeanor.

You smiled, waving at the wide-eyed little girl.
She returned the gesture, quick to hold out her hand in a well-mannered way to greet you.
"I'm Powder, nice to meet you! Thank you for that, by the way." She affirmed.
You clasped your hand with her smaller one, giving it a firm shake in return.
"Nice to meet you, Powder, it was my pleasure. By the way, I didn't get the chance to tell you how awesome your hair looks."
You declared, smiling a little.
It was adorable how quick she turned from eager to shy, a small blush dusting her speckled cheeks.
"Thank you! That's the first time I've heard someone say that, other than Vi of course."

As she replied, she ran her fingers through her powder blue hair, seemingly smoothing her bright tufts of hair down.
"Vi cuts it for me! Sometimes, I cut her's too. Hm, maybe that's why she's always giving me compliments..."
She hummed, placing her hand on her hip as she began to ponder about every encounter she's ever had; wondering if anyone had in fact complimented her  before other than her sister.
"Yeah, she's named like her hair, too, crazy huh?" 
Vi mocked, to which you gave her a playful glare.
"Her's is better though."

The pink haired gal rolled her eyes, while the smaller sibling seemed to practically beam with joy. Her excitement caused her to eagerly turn to Vi's side, before hastily whispering something into her ear, giving her a combo of pleading puppy eyes and a slight pout.
Vi only sighed with a smile, nodding her head.
The little girl turned to you, before motioning towards the run down building before you.
"Would you like to come in to our arcade?! It's right here, and we actually made this new game that's totally epic! You wanna try it?
You grinned, agreeing to try out her game.
That was her cue to grab ahold of your hand and drag you towards the mysterious arcade as Vi trailed along.
