'How am I supposed to deal with this?' 'I want to start by getting rid of the energy sources, and then maybe I will take him out of me and tell Alix the truth,' Adora thought.
"Adora Are you planning on attending the Royal Rumble tomorrow night?" Zack inquired.
"Can we go?" Alix asked.
"Do you guys really want to go? Well if you want to, you can go; you don't have to ask my permission just because you're on my team; you have the authority to do whatever you need to," she responded and Alix's eyes narrowed while staring at her.
"I am going out for a minute," Adora said before getting up and leaving.
'For some reason, I have a bad feeling,' Alix thought as he ate, and Adora stepped outside to get some fresh air.
"Are you all right?" it questioned.
"Yeah, I am fine, sorry, I promised I would get you out as soon as possible and I am still holding back," she said.
"You are letting what's been going on lately get to you, you need to pull yourself together, I think your new team is rubbing off on you in many ways, not just one, and that's not a bad thing, but don't say you are sorry to me again, you have kept me safe, there's nothing more I could ask for," it said and she clenched her fists knowing that there is a lot that needed to be done.
"I got it," she said.
"Got it," she said, her eyes widening as she sensed a strong, dark presence around her.
"Wh- what is that?" she asked, her eyes glowing orange.
"I believe you are being watched; return with the others," it replied.
"From where is it coming?" Adora questioned.
"In the building the others are in, meaning the restaurant, they are many people there, you won't know who or what it is," it responded as she went back into the restaurant.
"I am sealing you back now; I am not going to risk having you taken away," she stated.
"Okay, be careful," it replied, then she closed the seal and went back to the others a bit tense and Alix sensed it.
'What in the world is this? 'Where did that heaviness come from?' Alix wondered as he looked around.
"What's the problem, Alix?" Eliza asked.
"N- nothing," he replied, before pouring himself a glass of orange juice and drinking it.
"Kyris, I will accompany you to the match because I can't afford anything to go wrong," Adora said.
"What exactly do you mean?" Alix questioned, and Adora clenched her fists when she sensed the same presence she had earlier.
"It just means I want to join you guys," she explained.
"You are more than welcome to do so; I am interested in seeing what happens and how they fight, as well as who wins," Alix said.
"That's great; we all want to, and this royal rumble will be epic," Aerav responded.
"Guys, don't get too carried away here; remember that danger is still lurking," Zack said and Kyris sighed.
"He is correct; we must exercise caution; we came here for other reasons as well," Kyris explained.
"Oh, are you guys talking about Adora's new mission?" Zavis asked.
"Yeah, we are," Kyllan replied.
"Well, I wish you guys good luck on that, don't get yourself in too much trouble," Zavis said.
"Do you have any knowledge of energy sources, Zavis?" Adora questioned, and he paused, then looked at her, and Adora smirked.
"So, do you know?" she asked.
"What energy source?" Niya asked.
"We'll explain later, Niya, but it's a very dangerous one; for now, I need your brother to answer my question, I don't care if we get along or not," Adora replied and Niya smiled.
"I get it, Adora," she said.
"I don't know what you are talking about Adora," Zavis said with Adora's gaze fixed on him and he stood up immediately.
"What's the matter?" Zack asked.
"I just have a lot of things to do and can't afford to waste my time talking to her about something I don't know about," he replied and left, leaving Adora with a sigh.
"I am curious what's bothering him again," Niya remarked.
"Again?" Alix inquired.
"I think something happened to him a while ago, he's been acting strange and more on edge, well, a lot has been happening in this kingdom, enough to freak out my father," Niya responded.
"Would you mind providing us with a little more information, Niya?" Eliza asked.
"I will tell you what you need to know, and since you're here, you probably should, there was an attack a few months ago on the leader of the vampires here in this kingdom, according to my father, they wanted information about something I don't know what, nor did the vampire, he was saved by his fellow mates, but according to his description, the guy who attacked him was dressed in a white cloak and had some sort of marking on his right hand," Niya said.
"Do you have anything else?" Kyllan questioned.
"The mark do you have anything as to how it looks?" Adora asked.
"The looks of the mark I don't know, I'm afraid you'll have to speak with Zavis," she replied.
"Got it, Niya, thank you for sharing," Adora said as she patted the girl on the head and she smiled brightly.
'What are you concealing from me, Zavis?' 'Whatever it is, I will find out because I will not let anyone I care about die again,' she thought.
"Adora, for however long you are here, know that no matter what happens, we are a family, and you can ask us for help, if not from the others, then for me, I promise I am useful," Niya said.
"You don't have to tell me you are useful Niya, I know you are, you are a good kid," she replied and Kyris smiled as Adora's eyes glowed red sensing the same presence again except this time it was really close to her but she couldn't tell where it was coming from at that time.
