Resistance School [Genshin Impact]
Episode 2: Secret Hidden
The bell rang indicated it's recess time, most of the students rushed toward the cafeteria in hunger. Some of the students even push each other out of patients.
There is even students rooming around and went to the library. Meanwhile, Xiao and the others are at the rooftop eating peacefully. Though, it was the least thing to say...
Xiao
"No means no! You fool! Stop disturbing me!"
Childe
"Oh, come on~ let me copy your report Xiao, my brain is on jam right now!"
The ginger whines. Xiao growls in annoyance and kick his face once a while when he tried to approach him.
Amber laughed nervously while Lumine laughed in amusement. Aether smile nervously while sweatdropped along with Venti. Kaeya just yawn sleepily, resting his body on the wall. Closing his eyes ignoring the noise they make.
The door suddenly wide opened made everyone look at the door. A student seems out of breath but quickly speak.
Student: I'm sorry for disturbing your lunch! But, Jean sensei and Zhongli sensei said to call these name. Xiao, Kaeya, Childe, Lumine and Amber to quickly went to the main hall. It's an emergency!
They all exchanged glances.
Aether look at his sister worriedly.
The others narrowed their eyes before nodded, Xiao lightly tapped his shoulder.
Xiao
"It's okay, I will take care of Lumine. We are going."
Just like that, they left. Leaving only Aether and Venti behind, the blonde teen awkwardly looked at him. He doesn't know what to do.
Realize his awkwardness, he smile before summon his lyre. That is enough to pull his attention to him.
Venti
"Well, since we are all alone now. Why don't I let you listen to my favourite melody?"
Aether
"Your favourite melody? You know how to play lyre? This is my first time seeing the real one too."
He claimed excitedly, all of his nerves disappeared just like that. Venti smile silently glad that he managed to talk to him.
Venti
"Ehe~ yes, I supposed you love music seeing your reaction. Then, if I may. I will play it for you!"
He claimed with a smile, playfully winking at him.
Aether bashfully smiled at his playfulness and nods in excitement. He then closed his eyes, concentrating before began playing the lyre.
Meanwhile,
With the others.
Jean
"Take you long enough."
Xiao
"What is it? You can't possibly tell us 'that'."
Lumine look at them completely clueless, she did not understand why they look so serious. Especially Xiao, she sweat feeling terrified, it was the first time for her to see his face darken. Full of kill intent, he doesn't even hold back his KI. She silently whimper, Lumime can clearly see the rage on his brother's face.
Childe
"Hey, calm down will you? Getting angry like this will get you nowhere."
He daid in serious tone with a faint frowned while tapping his shoulder. Xiao glared at him before roughly brushed his hand off his shoulder.
Xiao
"What are you thinking? I don't care if I need to settle them by myself. Why did you try to involve them in this."
Zhongli
"Xiao please listen to us first and you're scaring her. I know that you have a grudge on them but please for Archons sake calm down."
At that mention, realisation hits him. He quickly turn to Lumine and rushed to her, she slightly trembled in fear.
Xiao
"Lumine, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scared you, I really sorry."
He whispered to Lumine while embrace her tightly, trying to calm her down. Kaeya crossed his arm with a frown.
Kaeya
"Who would have thought we got to see his soft side."
Jean sighed, putting her left hand on hip.
Jean
"Of course, after all they are the only family he has left."
Amber stayed silent the whole time only observing and listen to them. After the situation is much more better, they continue. Zhonglin exhaled heavily closing his eyes.
Everyone except Jean were shocked hearing it, Lumine still feel lost and didn't understand what's happening.
Lumine
"Xiao-nii, please... tell me what's going on? What did Zhongli sensei mean?"
She stared at him sharply with a frowned.
Xiao
"Lumine.... Hmm, fine. If you insists."
His delicate yellow eyes glinting sharply almost looking emotionless.
Back to Aether and Venti;
Aether
"That was wonderful Venti, I envy you. How come you're good at playing lyer?"
Venti
"Ehe~ you flatter me too much Aether, all you need to do is practice and learn how to play it."
Venti
"Since you seems to taken a liking with it, you can take this lyer."
He said while giving it to him, Aether hesitantly accept it.
Aether
"E-eh? Is it okay? I'm sure this lyer is dear to you."
Venti
"Nah, it's fine really. I have a bunch of it in my dimension."
Aether
"I see.... Thank you Venti."
He thank him with a bright smile. Venti froze when he once again saw the same image, Aether look at him worriedly when see him freeze.
Aether
"Venti? What's wrong? Are you okay?"
"Ahh... a spirit? Hello, my name is Sora. What's yours? Ahh-! Silly me, you don't have any name since you're just a spirit."
"Then, I will give you one! Your name will be Venti! Nice to meet you Venti."
Aether
"...ti... Ven...! Venti!"
He snapped back to reality only to see Aether staring at him worriedly.
Aether
"Are you okay? Is something wrong? You were zoning out."
Venti
"Ah, sorry. I didn't mean to worried you, I'm fine. Just wondering why Jean sensei and Zhongli sensei called them."
Aether
".... Hmm, you right. I wonder if they did something wrong..? But, Lumine also got call too."
Venti
"I'm sure it's alright. Zhongli and Jean sensei probably have something to discuss with them."
Aether
"Is that so..? I hope it is."
He muttered and Venti proceed to reassured him everything is fine. <Time Skip> After the school ended, all the students rushing out from the school. A few of them walk back home with their friends, others decided to stayed behind either to finish their homework or review on what they've learned.
The blonde hair girl lunge herself toward the older male, hugging him while Aether returned her embrace.
Aether
"Did something happened? You and Xiao-nii didn't even come on the rest of the classes."
Her words stopped midway when remember what Xiao said to her before. "Don't tell him anything about this." Is what the older male reminded her after told everything.
Lumine shook her head and force a smiled that look slightly strain.
Lumine
"No, it's nothing really! I and the others only help Jean sensei and Zhongli sensei on some stuff..."
Lumine sweating bullets since she can't lie when it is Aether. He felt she is lying but decided not to pry it any further. Aether let out a sigh. Xiao quickly took over the conversation.
Xiao
"It's still too early, why don't we look around a bit."
Lumine
"Wait, really? We going to shopping?"
Lumine
"Yaaaayyy!! Aether did you heard him? We finally got to roaming around and shopping!"
Lumine claimed excitedly while intertwined her hands on his. He just smiled in returned.
Xiao
"Come on you two let's go."
Aether and Lumine look the views around them excitedly like a child go to the park. Their hands linked by Xiao, he can't risk them suddenly to loss them out of nowhere.
They stopped at the milkshake shop.
Xiao
"Which one you want?"
Lumine
"Umm.... Strawberry! I want strawberry."
Aether
"I want nutella..."
Xiao
"Okay, then. One fráppucano, strawberry and nutella milkshake."
After a while waiting, they left after receiving their drink and payed.
Lumine
"Ah~ strawberry is the best."
Aether
"Can I really drink this Xiao-nii?"
Xiao
"Of course you can. If I let you drink it then it means it fine."
He replied while sipping his drink.
A thin smiled grace upon his lips.
He said softly before start drinking his milkshake, they continue walking around. Xiao would let them buy anything they wanted.
Xiao
(Just this once I'll spoil you. You two deserve it, you have been staying in the house since a child.)
Xiao
"Do you want to rest Aether?"
He stopped when saw the blonde teen tried to hide his tiredness but failed. Aether smiled weakly.
Aether
".... Sorry I ruin the mode, if only I didn't have this illness..."
Aether and Lumine sat on the bench resting, his face is gloomy.
Lumine
"Hush! Nii-chan stop talking about that, it wasn't your fault you've this illness. You don't even ask for this."
Xiao
"Yes, she right. Stop thinking you're a burden. You know that we never thought of you one."
He claimed while flick on his forehead.
Aether
"Ow! Okay, okay! I'm sorry!!"
Xiao
"If you think like that again I'll punish you, hear me?"
He replied with a slight blushed, Xiao once 'punish' him by swat his *** for thinking he is a burden. Leaving him can't sit properly afterward for a week.
In the end, the twin finished their day by spending time with Xiao. Once they reached home, they went straight to bed and fast asleep since they play the whole day. Xiao brushed their hair softly before quietly left them sleep.

"Quick! Catch her before your highness furious!"
??
*Pant* *pant* *panting*
??
"In your dreams sucker! I'll never let you capture me! Not anymore!!"
??
"Khh! Why this brat..!! Quick catch her now!"
She stopped in the track when she found a dead end. She look around trying to find any path but futile, there is a big waterfall infront of her.
A group of man now infront of her, the man who yelled at her before smirked when saw the trouble face on her. She bit her lips. It's risky but it's better now than never!
??
"I won't let you capture me! Even if it's mean I die!"
With determination, she jump in the waterfall as the screamed of panic can be heard by her. She drawn by the heavy water and got dragged into an unknown place. One of her hand place on neck when she out of breath, her other hand reached out to the sky.
??
(Can't... breath.... Someone please safe me-)
Her conscious slowly slipped away as both of her hand fell down. Her body being swayed along by the heavily waterfall.
