Luo Xia said to Skye, "Good thing I made it in time. Could you try not to run off like that next time?"
Skye bit her lip, unable to say a word. She'd once thought that when she saw Luo Xia again, she'd be able to give him a piece of her mind. Now, all she could manage was a strained question: "When did you get here?"
"Not long after your car broke down. I saw you holding your phone and figured you didn't want to see me, so I stayed nearby and kept watch. But given what just happened, I had no choice but to show myself," Luo Xia explained.
After Violet told him where Skye was, he'd used a Sling Ring from Kamar-Taj to open a portal and come nearby. He'd been watching over Skye the whole time; he hadn't just appeared at the moment he fired his gun.
This world didn't have that many last-second rescues.
"Why?" Skye asked.
"You were in danger. Why else would I save you?" Luo Xia said as if it were obvious.
"Why do you always have to save me? I... I'm not as capable as Wanda. I can't help you." As Skye said this, her eyes reddened despite herself. She really felt useless. Every time she thought she could repay Luo Xia for saving her life, she only ended up causing him more trouble.
"So that's why you keep trying to leave my side?" Luo Xia pulled Skye toward him and swept her into his arms like a princess.
"You... What are you doing?" Skye asked in surprise.
"I'm taking you to see something amazing, so you can forget all those muddled thoughts."
A scene like shattered glass appeared in front of them, and Luo Xia carried Skye into the Mirror
