Rise of the Malactric Heir

After they finished eating and talking that night, they returned to the ship.

Some went to freshen up, while others relaxed in the living room, talking about what was going to happen next, wondering if they will be able to defeat the enemy or not.

Adora had finished freshening up and went out onto the lawn, where she sighed as she looked up at the night sky.

'I'm concerned about what will happen, but... I also wonder if I should tell Alix the whole truth or not, his reaction is important, I wonder if he'll hate me for not telling him sooner, maybe I'm just overthinking this, damn it,' Adora thought as Kyris approached her and tapped her on the shoulder after which she turned and looked at him.

"What is it, Kyris?" she asked and he smiled at her.

"Is something bothering you?" he asked and she exhaled deeply.

"I just have a bit too much on my mind, are the others okay?" she asked.

"Yeah, they are fine, good thing we all know the risk, want to talk about what's bothering you?" he asked.

"That's a good offer, but I can't take it; it's something quite complicated, I assure you," she responded.

"What in our lives isn't complicated? We spend every day wondering what will happen next in our lives; it has become quite natural for us now, we are used to it, but I understand," he said and she chuckled and then patted him on the shoulder.

"I know and you are right, it is a part of our everyday life now, to be honest, it's something a lot will get tired of pretty fast, let's just hope we get an answer soon, we need to know their next move or at least where they will start the attack from," Adora replied and Kyris exhaled deeply.

"I know, do you want me to start interrogating?" he asked as she lowered her head.

"We'll need something to use to get into their heads; people like them don't like being called weak and teased; we'll need to do more than that to irritate them," she responded as he began to think then sighed.

"There are many ways to do that, I will go start taking care of this," Kyris said.

"I will do it myself," she replied and he looked at her.

"Hey, are you serious? There are many of us here, we can do it, you know we can do it right, Adora?" Kyris asked and she looked at him with a gentle smile.

"Of course, I know that, I just didn't want you guys too.." she responded and he scoffed.

"Don't worry about it, we are a team Adora, this is what we are supposed to do, always be there for each other and help each other, by the way, you should know the help each other part is Alix's words," Kyris said and she smiled.

"I will do it," Ifrit said as he approached them and they looked at him then he smiled.

"Are you sure about this, Ifrit?" Kyris inquired.

"They will know who you are, are you going to take that risk?" Adora asked and he smiled then patted her on the shoulder.

"Yes, I am, you are great kids, I don't mind doing it because I want them to know it's me and that I will stop at nothing until they are destroyed, there is no hiding," he did reply, and she sighed.

"Do you understand Adora or are you mad at me now?" he asked and she smiled.

"No, I am not mad at you, Ifrit, I am just a bit worried, that's all," she responded.

"Good, there's nothing wrong with being a little worried after all, this is a dangerous game we've gotten ourselves into," he said, and they nodded. Ifrit turned to face Kyris, who exhaled deeply before turning to look at Adora.

"I'll bring them out, but should I also call the others?" he inquired.

"Yeah, please do, it will be better if they are here, we are going to need the help in getting those two to crack, I think from this, and when we captured them, you can tell that they are strong, and if they get loose it won't be good at all," Adora replied.

"You're right, but we don't need all of us to get rid of them, so don't worry too much; I'll get the others, and you two can chat or do whatever you want in the meantime," Kyris said as he rushed off, and Adora chuckled.

"I can tell he's worried from his tone, he said a few pretty clear and unnecessary things there just now," Ifrit said, and Adora chuckled.

"Yes, he is really worried as well, and they have all grown from when I first met them, a lot too," she replied and he smiled.

"Yeah, I've seen a lot of growth in them, and they've been training a lot on their own, learning more control and what else they can do with their abilities, they are special, all those you take in, Adora, they show great potential, are you worried about them more now?" Ifrit asked, and she smiled as she looked up at the night sky.

"To be honest, I'm a little worried; this fight is unlike any other; they are strong, hopefully, stronger than their future opponents; I believe in them; I believe they are," she responded.

"You believe that because they actually are really special, I can tell that you really care about that and they care about you as well as each other, that's good, in the future, they will be able to rely on one another, you have been doing great so far even though your methods are a bit different," he said and she chuckled as the others came outside and they looked at them.

"What's going on?" Serina asked.

"We are going to do some interrogating, we need answers, we need to get them soon, we cannot afford to waste too much time and we have a few different methods in which we think will work in getting those minions to talk," Ifrit responded and they looked at each other before smiling.
