?

Adora raised off of Alix then braced her head against his chest and he opened his eyes and smiled at her.

Alix wondered what Adora was thinking and wanted to ask, but with the way she was at the moment, he decided to leave it alone.

"Don't mind me," she said then hugged him tightly and his eyes, shook as he stared at her and a gentle smile appeared on her face, then he exhaled deeply before placing his hands around her and she looked up at him.

"Uncomfortable?" she asked and his eyes narrowed as he leaned in closer to her.

"No, I am not uncomfortable, I am just thinking about a few things," he responded before raising his right hand up and moving a few strings of her hair, behind her ears.

"What are you thinking about?" she asked.

"We don't have to talk about that right about now," he responded and her brows furrowed.

"If something is bothering you, talk to me about it, okay?" she asked and he smiled at her.

"I will, there is something I have to talk to you about but I will do that later," he responded and she nodded then turned around to look at the clouds with Alix's arms wrapped around her waist.

Alix noticed that Adora while Adora was staring at the clouds, her eyes began shimmering in another color and he peeked at it and she glanced at him and then smiled.

"What's the matter?" she asked.

"Your eyes, it shimmered a different color just now," he responded and she chuckled.

"That's sort of normal with me, some colors are for different abilities, only a few people get that," she said and he chuckled.

"Well, to whoever gets it, it's pretty awesome, I like the different colors," he replied and she smiled.

"That's good to know because you might be one of the few that has that type of eyes," she said and his brows furrowed.

"I am?" he asked and she chuckled.

"You will see for yourself," she responded.

"Adora," someone called out and she moved away from Alix immediately, he chuckled as Scott and the others came up to the deck.

"What are you two doing up here? Bird watching?" Kyris asked as he approached Alix and Alix scoffed.

"What are you guys doing here? Came to join us watching birds?" Alix asked and Kyris laughed.

"We came to talk to Adora about what's going on in another nation, it's not going great for some people, we just saw it," he responded and Alix's eyes narrowed.

"What happened?" Alix asked and Kyris took put his phone then swiped up and a hologram appeared before them and Adora looked at it.

"What's the matter?" she asked.

"Come on, take a look," Alix responded and she approached them.

"What's going on guys?" Scott asked.

"My brother sent this to me just a few minutes ago, it's getting started, he is making his moves," Kyris responded as they gathered to look at what he wanted to show them.

"Adora..." Kyris said.

eaglesnov?1,?o? "Go on, show it," she added and he nodded and her eyes widened as they stared at the video he was showing them.

"You are kidding..." Adora mumbled as tears appeared in Serina's eyes and Eliza exhaled deeply before lowering her head as well as the others.

"One nation almost got destroyed this morning, by his men, they stopped killing those in their way and destroying things a while after, a deal was made or something," Kyris said and Adora lowered her head before taking her phone out of her pocket.

"Give me a minute, I will find out about the deal from my father, if he even knows," she said before calling her father.

A few minutes after, he answered his phone and she placed hers on speaker.

"Dad, you guys are okay right?" she asked.

"Yeah, kiddo, we are fine, we are having a meeting with the other leaders in this kingdom in a few, are you guys okay out there?" he asked.

"Yeah, we are okay," she responded.

"Adora, I am sorry about what happened with Vellon," he said and she smiled.

"It's okay, certain things we just cannot stop, I just saw what happened with the other nation, a lot has been destroyed for them," she replied and the king sighed.

"Yes, a lot of things have been destroyed, they had to make a deal with the one that led the attack for his leader in order for them to stop," he said.

"What kind of deal your highness?" Alix asked.

"Ah, Alix, to not get involved with our kingdom until this is all over, accept that or have their nation fall flat on their face, they contacted me, asking whether they should make the deal or not," he responded.

"You had no choice but to tell them to make the deal? For their own survival, at the time it was your only way to help them since it was an unexpected attack?" Alix asked.

"You are on point, that's it, Alix, we are all going to have to make a few tough choices in this fight," he responded, Alix glanced at Adora and she lowered her head.

"Adora, are you still there?" her father asked.

"Yes," she responded.

"Kiddo, from now on I have to make sure to fulfill my role as king, I have to do what's right," he said.

Adora clenched her right fist and her eyes began glowing blue.

"Do you understand?" he asked.

"Yeah, I understand, please take care of yourself as well as her," she responded.

"I will, I have to head to the meeting, you kids take care of yourself, I will keep in touch," he said.

"Okay, bye," Adora replied.

"Bye..." he said then hung up and Adora's eyes returned to normal then Alix handed her the phone and she collected it from him.

"You okay?" Alix asked and Adora looked at him before smiling.

"Yeah, I am okay," she responded.

"Scott, can you increase the speed of the ship?" she asked.

"As you wish," he responded before leaving and the others looked at each other before continue talking about what happening.

Adora looked down from the ship before exhaling deeply and closing her eyes, allowing the fresh air to brush against her cheek and Alix glanced at her before sighing.
