Rise of the Malactric Heir

Alix checked the time after everyone had finished eating.

"I'll start packing my stuff; how about you guys?" he inquired.

"They won't take long," Cameron replied, "but we should get it done and over with so we don't have to worry about anything at the last minute."

"How about you, Adora?" Sarah asked.

"I will pack my things soon, when you are all finished, you can relax in whatever way you feel want, this goes to you Cameron, especially you," she responded and he grinned.

"Got it, my lady, don't worry too much," he said as they stood up and exited the dining hall.

"Adora, I'm going home for a bit, but I'll be back before nightfall, okay?" Zack said.

"All right, Zack, be careful and be on you guard," she replied.

"I will, see you then," he said then left and Cameron yawned.

"Cameron, take your shirt off," Adora said and he did as told and her eyes started glowing blue as she stared at his body.

"I'm just checking to see if they left anything on you," she explained.

"Okay, found anything?" he asked then her eyes stopped glowing and she looked at him.

"Nope, nothing, oh and you'll be fine soon, I see everyone else has taken their bandages off, you still have until we arrive to the next kingdom, no training," Adora said, and they laughed.

"We won't go behind your back and do that, go have some ice cream, it will cool your brain, it's boiling," Alix replied, her right brow twitched then she looked at him and smiled as he grinned.

"You enjoy playing with fire, don't you?" she inquired.

"Not all fire," he replied, smirking.

"You're looking forward to your death at her hands, I get it," Kyllan said, smiling. "You two always fight like an old married couple, it never gets old, I think I'd pay to watch you two go at each other."

"No thanks, I do not want to turn gray at such a young age," Alix replied, and the others laughed as Adora's eyes began to glow blue and she approached Alix.

"What are you up to?" he inquired.

"Checking something," she replied, placing her hand against his chest, and he smirked before leaning in closer and she pulled her face back.

"Do you have a hidden agenda?" he asked, and she sighed before he winked at her and walked away.

"Would you guys mind if I strangled Alix?" she asked.

"Yes, we would," Kyris said, resting his chin on Adora's shoulder as she looked at him.

"You'd suffer a lot if you did, am I right, my lady?" he asked, and she smiled.

"Whatever, move," she said, and he chuckled before moving away from her, and she sighed.

"Uh... Adora," Alix said as he stood at the top of the stairs and she looked up at him.

"What's the matter?" she asked.

"Where will we be staying in the next kingdom?" he inquired.

"At the castle," she replied, and they all looked at her.

"Are they also your family?" Ayden questioned.

"No, we have an alliance with them and the king is also a good friend of my father's, and he offered us to stay there; they are all aware of the situation, and they are all caught up in it now," she replied.

"So they appreciate our assistance?"Alix asked.

"Yeah, they do; they had some issues, and they confirmed the enemies are strong as well," she responded.

"I see, they're not afraid to attack all the kingdoms at once, they're bad news," Alix said, and the others agreed.

"Adora, if we can't win this fight, we will probably lose everything, right?" Sarah questioned, and Adora sighed.

"I have a lot more questions, but I'm patient because someone asked me to be," he replied, smirking then went to finish packing his things while the others went to do theirs.

Later that day, shortly after nightfall, Adora was playing with the dragon when she began humming a tune her mother used to hum to put her to sleep at night, and the dragon looked at her with shimmering eyes as the queen heard her humming and rushed outside, smiling when she saw it was Adora humming the very familiar and peaceful tune.

'Mom, a lot is going to change now,' she thought as she softly hummed, and the dragon's body began to glow as it flew up in the air, and the moon appeared in the night sky, the others came out upon hearing the loud yet soft and relaxing tune.

"That is nice," Alix said as he looked at Adora from his balcony and she smiled when she looked up at the dragon as he danced in the sky.

'I am broken from within, yes, I know that, but I have to live for now,' she thought as her body glowed white and the tune became louder, causing the queen to grip the king's hand tightly and he smiled.

"This is nice, it's peaceful coming from someone who is not," Alix said while looking at the princess and she looked up at him and both of their eyes glowed bright pink and blue then stopped and she stopped humming at the same time.

"That was nice," the queen commented.

"I felt like doing it, sorry," Adora said and the queen patted her on the head with a bright smile on her face.

"Don't worry, I'm glad I got to hear that again, let's go have dinner," she said as the dragon looked at Adora, roared, and the other jumped, then looked up at her, and Jade came back down to Adora, who patted the dragon on the head.

"There, there, you looked pretty up there, are you upset?" Adora asked.

"No, No, I am not, I am glad I heard that now go on and have your dinner, my lady, you don't eat as much so go on," the dragon replied and Adora smiled then went in with the others to eat and Alix came down to have his dinner as well.
