Everyone looked at the storm cloud and Adora smiled at it before placing her hand on the window as the rain began pouring down and a gentle smile appeared on her face as she stared at the droplets.
Alix glanced at Adora before letting out a relieved sigh and she glanced at him and her cheeks flushed when he smiled at her.
Adora immediately returned her attention to the rain before lowering her head and she shivered since the atmosphere had begun getting cold.
Alix approached her then tapped her on the shoulder and she glanced at him, but couldn't look at his face, when he saw that, he chuckled, then took his silk jacket off and give it to her and she collected it then thanked him.
"So, when exactly do you think we will arrive with all of this rain?" Alix asked and Adora looked outside.
"It shouldn't be that long, right?" Scott asked.
"You are right, the top might be a day or two, shouldn't be more than that," Adora responded and they smiled.
"That's good to know and after this, we are heading home?" Alix asked and she nodded.
"Yeah, after this we will be returning home," she responded.
"We have a lot to prepare for, I am starting to feel lazy," Aerav added and they laughed then Sarah patted him on the shoulder.
"I know the feeling, but we have to hang in there or we might all fall, right guys?" Eliza asked.
"Yeah," they responded and Adora chuckled as Alix placed his hand on hers which was against the glass and she smiled feeling how warm he was.
Ifrit and Nina glanced at them and when they saw they were holding hands, they smiled and remained quiet since they wanted the two to get closer and understand each other a bit more.
"I am a bit sleepy now..." Adora mumbled before wiping her eyes and looking at the lightning as it flashed through the sky and at the same time, the others wanted to see and got up.
Alix looked at Adora as she peeked at the others and he chuckled, then released her hand and she looked at him when he passed his hand on her head.
"Look at me properly next time," he said with a smile and she left staring at him as he walked away and she held onto her cheeks.
"What's the matter?" Ifrit asked as he approached her and she looked at him and he chuckled.
"Your face is beet red," he responded.
"Something must be wrong with me then," she said and he patted her on her shoulder, then wrapped his arm around her neck before exhaling deeply.
A few minutes after, Adora's phone rang and she took it out of her pocket and then answered it.
"Hello," she said.
"Hello, leader," the person replied and she smiled.
"Ah, you have heard, huh?" she asked.
"Yeah, I am going to be heading back soon, will we see you there?" the guy asked.
"We better see you there, we all have a lot of catching up to do!" a girl in the background shouted and Adora chuckled.
"Ignore it, she has gone crazy, I called to tell you we are coming back, hope to see you soon," he said.
"Same here, we will be back soon," she replied, then hung up. Kyris glanced at her as well as Alix who was eating a snack while going through his phone, to kill time.
"It was team one, they will be heading home soon," she said and Kyris smiled after hearing that.
"That's good to know, at least they know they need to go home," Kyris replied and Adora nodded before yawning and shaking her head to keep herself from falling asleep due to the nice weather.
"Uh... Adora, phone for you," Kyris said and she glanced at him.
"What is it now?" she asked as a hologram appeared before her and the others looked and a guy's face appeared on it.
"Oh? It's the one working with the Mechs," Alix said and Adora nodded.
"Hello," Adora said.
"Hello, everyone, I called to show you a recent update based on what happened the last time when Alix tested the mech out, can I have his opinion as well?" he asked and Adora smiled then nodded.
Alix got up from the couch and approached them.
"Hello, good to see you again, " Alix said.
"Alix, it's good to see you again as well, the last time when you were in the mech, it couldn't handle certain things, we are close to finishing up on them, where do you think we should adjust based on your experience?" he asked as a design of the inside of the mech he used appeared before them.
"You are going to adjust them to protect those who can't use magic as well, am I right?" Alix asked as he used both of his fingers and grabbed onto the hologram, where the mech design was and he separated them.
The others looked at what he was doing and Adora smiled at him.
"Yes, we want to be able to protect them as well, since you tested it out, I thought it would be good to get your suggestion, the princess already gave hers and we are currently working on the changes for a better performance," the guy responded and Alix smiled.
"Okay, I will tell you what I experienced and what I think should be adjusted for some of the pilots," Alix said.
"Thank you, kid," the guy replied and Alix smiled, then began talking with him. Adora braced herself against the glass while looking at Alix and she exhaled deeply.
While Alix was discussing what should be done with the guy, Adora and the others sat down and she zipped up his jacket, then braced back near him and he smiled at her and the guy who was building the mech chuckled.
"This is a good suggestion, I will adjust it for them to be a bit more comfortable as well, take a look at the other one," the guy said and Adora poured herself a glass of drink while looking at them as they adjusted some of the designs within the mech.
