Rise of the Malactric Heir



While checking the direction they were going in, Scott looked at Adora and she glanced at him, then smiled after he lowered his head.

She tapped him on his shoulder and he looked at her then she sighed, knowing he wanted to say something but was probably afraid to.

"Do you want to say something? If you do then it's totally okay, Scott," she said and he looked at her then sighed before nodding and she smiled.

"The place where we are heading to, right now it's not quite on the map is it?" he asked and she chuckled and then looked outside.

"You are right," she responded and he looked at her immediately and she glanced at him.

"Really? We are going to a place that's not quite on the map?" he asked.

"Yeah, we are, this place is hidden, you can tell the others if you want, it's not a secret, you guys can talk about it and guess where that may be, turn it into a game if you want to, no problem," she responded and he chuckled.

"That's just amazing, I want to know where it is but from the way we are going about going there, I know you can't tell us exactly where it is, I am right, right?" he asked and she chuckled then patted him on his shoulder.

"Yeah, you are right about that as well, I just changed the direction a bit, I will come to check on it again, make sure it keeps going that way," she responded before walking away.

"Yes, I will, don't worry," he said and she smiled then left.

Adora went to the living room, then sat down on the couch and poured herself a cold glass of juice then drank it before looking around.

She exhaled deeply and placed her head back on the couch while thinking about certain things in their lives.

While Adora was relaxing her head, Alix and Ifrit talked about a few things. Ifrit told Alix a few things about his past and even the way he was used.

"You know, I could tell you more about my life with Adora, but that's not necessary, since you guys already know half of it, but, I will tell you that if it wasn't for her, I would have been completely lost and would have become exactly what people thought of me to be," Ifrit said and Alix smiled.

"You are right, we already know about your story but I have to say, only a strong person could survive a story like yours and you did, also, if I am right about this, Adora is the one that made you live again? Basically saved your life, right?" he asked and Ifrit chuckled.

"Yeah, she is the reason that I am still here and I have to say, because of her I got to live a life I never thought I could even get, she made me get to live better than my dreams and for that, I will be forever grateful, but she doesn't know this so don't tell her," Ifrit responded and Alix laughed as did he.

"Don't worry, this is safe with me, I won't tell her anything because that's not my place to, they are your words, she should only hear it from you when you are ready to tell her of course," Alix said and Ifrit chuckled.

"Also, I have been noticing a lot of changes with you guys lately, are you guys dating as yet?" he asked and Alix glanced at him.

"Why would you ask that?" Alix asked and Ifrit scoffed then looked at him.

"I have known Adora for too long and how you two have been with each other lately, of course, I would notice the changes, the others haven't, they don't see it as yet but you two are closer than ever before," he responded and Alix sighed.

"Yeah, you are right about that, Ifrit, we are closer than ever and yes, we are dating now," he said and Ifrit patted him on his shoulder.

"Damn it, it took you guys long enough, I am happy for both of you, you guys are a perfect match, in many eyes, not just mine," Ifrit replied and Alix smiled.

"Don't tell her I told you that we are dating, not for now at least, you can, later on," Alix said and Ifrit chuckled then patted him on the shoulder.

"Yeah, don't worry about it, I won't tell her until she talks about it or come clean," Ifrit replied and Alix scoffed when they both noticed that the ship changed direction and they looked at each other.

They decided to check and see if they were still going in the right way or even if they are close to their destination.

Both of them went down to the living room and when Adora saw them, she smiled at them. Alix and Ifrit approached her and the others looked at them.

"Are we still going in the same direction, Adora?" Ifrit asked.

"Or did we change course?" Alix asked as Scott approached Adora, she looked at him then he smiled.

"Still going the right way?" she asked.

"Yeah, we are still going in the direction you changed it a bit to," he responded and she smiled and then stood up.

"I changed it a bit, but yes, we are still going to the same place, sometimes I just have to check and make sure we are always facing that way, due to the weather and so on, it can change up a lot of things," Adora said and Alix's brows furrowed as he looked at her.

"Something about that is weird, it's still on the map, so you can always keep going in that direction unless it's not quite on the map?" Alix asked and Scott laughed and Adora smirked.

"You are right," Scott said and Alix glanced at Adora and she chuckled.

"The place where we are going is supposed to be a long lost one, it's not quite on the map which can make it a pain to find if you are not careful," she added and Alix smiled.

"Interesting, are we nearing here?" he asked and she smiled then nodded and they looked out the window at the storm clouds they entered.
