Achlys : Arcane fanfiction {Finished}

Chapter 35

Sevika ...

"Boss, what are we doing with the boy from Piltover?"

I looked back at her.

"Has he spoken?"

"Yes but in an unknown language."

I sighed.

"I'll go interrogate him."

I looked back at Viktor as Sevika closed the door.

"I'll give you blood samples If you want to. Hopefully my father's curse could become a blessing for you."

I patted his shoulder before getting out. Sevika observed me as she waited for me.

"What? Just spit it out." I said seriously.

"Good job."

I looked back at her surprised as she turned around and walked away.

Did she just say ...

I ran after her.

"Did you just compliment me?!"

"No. I don't know what you're talking about." She said ignoring me.

I put myself in front of her.

"YES YOU DID! You were like "Good job"" I said imitating her.

One of her eyebrows raised but she stayed silent. I turned around when she spoke again.

"You're a good leader, I'll admit it."

I looked back over my shoulder.

"You're ... Completely insane and reckless but you haven't given up on neither Zaun or your men... I can respect that."

A smirk appeared on my face.

"What day are we?" I asked.

"Sunday why?"

"Just gonna write down the date you complimented me on. That's something that needs to be immortalized. Sign it, so I have proof."

She rolled her eyes at me and slightly chuckled.

~~~~~~~~~

I opened the door of the basement they had put him in.

The door closed behind me as i watched the Young man. His eyes darted towards me, unable to speak with the ropes in his mouth. He had been tied down and restrained very strictly.

I crouched in front of him.

"How do you know my childhood nickname... Who are you."

I caressed his face with my hand.

"Are the the Young man my sister ran away with...?"

I removed the tape from his mouth.

"Are you lily...?" He asked.

"I used to... Now it's Achlys. Why you asking?"

He looked down at his feet and chuckled. I looked at him confused as even though he was chuckling, his expression was saddened.

...

I cut his ropes and freed him.

"What are you doing?"

"I trust you won't run away. Follow me." I said.

We walked out and everybody observed us. I brought us to the rooftop.

"Are you the head of all of this?" He asked looking out at the city.

"Pretty much yeah..."

I turned back to him again.

" I never thought ... I'd see you again." He whispered.

I raised my eyebrows in confusion.

"I'm sorry for leaving you... I should've taken you with me ..." He said looking back at me.

"What are you talking about?"

"That night ... When I found you ... I didn't know what to do. You were so scared and i had trouble to hold onto you. I went to Silco hoping he'd take you in but i couldn't stay..."

My eyes widened in shock.

"How do you know that ... Is this a sick joke?! Where is my sister!"

"Lily... I know this must be a lot-"

"DON'T CALL ME THAT!... You know what? I don't need your help! I'll find my sister myself!"

I started walking away when I heard him mumbling something.

"I hope to be your eyes... And lead us where we go... And help you to be wise... In times when you don't know... "

I stopped in my steps.

"Let this be our song, when we lose our way...." I whispered.

I looked back at him in shock. As he looked at me with tears in his eyes, he ran up to me and took me in his arms. We both fell to our knees.

#-)/A memory of my sister hugging me flashed in front of my eyes. #-)/

He took my face between his hands.

"I'm sorry you had to wait so long for me."
