Rise of the Malactric Heir



Each of them looked at the door and Alix was about to move ahead, but Adora grabbed onto his hand and he glanced at her then she sighed and released his hand and his brows furrowed.

"I don't like the feeling I am getting," Ifrit said and Adora glanced at him and he looked at her then Alix walked forward and went through the door and they followed him in.

They walked a slim pathway, one which was concrete and there were carvings within the wall.

"I am starting to think this is not going to be as easy as the last one," Aerav said.

"We are on the same page with that one, bro," Ayden added and Alix glanced at them and Adora sighed, then they came to an opening and they saw that they had arrived at the next section and the door behind them closed.

"We are here," Ifrit said.

"This is pretty, but..." Elia mumbled and Adora patted her on her shoulder and she sighed.

The place was beautiful, had different colours on the wall as well as different designs that shined with the light.

There were carvings on the walls, which were rocky, there was a path leading straight to a silver door and four other paths by the side as well as water streams, coming from within the walls and magical flowers which were planted by their sides.

The area contained, small broken apart compartment and many other things and it almost seemed like a place with no danger.

"It's pretty and a little too calming, I don't like this one bit," Alix said.

"Same here," Kyris added and Adora exhaled deeply before stretching off and Alix glanced at her then his eyes narrowed as he began sensing a change in the air and the others sensed it as well but Alix sensed a stronger version.

"There is something stronger in here with us," he said and Adora stepped forward, then her eyes began glowing slightly red.

"Whatever is in here with us, is nothing human or even mixed with it," Alix and Adora said and the others exchanged glances.

"They are right, I can sense it as well and it's not only one," Ifrit added.

"What do you think it might be Ifrit?" Yaron asked.

"Dark, they are dark," he responded and they looked at him.

"They?" Kurson asked and Ifrit nodded, then he sighed and pulled his weapon.

"I am not going to become anything's meal, not today," Kurson said and they laughed then Alix patted him on his shoulder.

"Whatever they are, we are going to have to fight our way through," Alix said ad Adora sighed.

"Fight... I think I am starting to really hate that word," Adora mumbled and Alix chuckled since he heard her and she glanced at him with her eyes narrowing.

Adora lifted her hand and was about to touch him when dark smoke like things began appearing in the air and she flinched when Alix moved.

"What the hell is that?" Zack asked and she looked up in the air with her eyes narrowing, wondering what it was that they were seeing and the magical things within the area began shimmering.

"Whatever they are, I have a feeling that they are coming now," Alix said as his eyes began glowing as did theirs and they pulled out their weapons.

"We have to be careful, whatever they are, I don't think, it will be easy to get past them," Scott said and Adora smiled at him.

"Don't worry, Scott, everything will be fine," Alix replied and Scott nodded then black flames began moving around Alix's fingers on his right hand, forming a design.

"I am in no mood to fight here," Kyris said as Adora began seeing blurry when colorful gas began appearing in the air above them.

"Don't breath it in," Alix said and they closed their eyes but Adora had already sniffed it since she was not focusing and her head began getting dizzy and Alix glanced at her.

"Hey, are you okay?" he asked as she started seeing different things happening before her and it stopped on the night of her mother's death, showing her piece by piece what happened and she clenched her right fist in anger before lowering her head.

"Adora," Ifrit called out as they looked around, the gas started disappearing and the black smokes in the air began to take form, some even started rising from the floor.

'Why am I seeing this now? Why now of all times? I don't want to see that night again, I don't want...' she thought as she stepped forward.

Alix grabbed onto her arm and her brows furrowed when she heard her mother call out her name and a slight smile appeared on her face when she saw her mother's smiling face in the images she was seeing.

Kyris looked at Adora and Alix's eyes narrowed as he passed his hand before her eyes, when he realized that she didn't see his hand, he knew she was seeing other things and at that moment, they understood what she inhaled was doing.

"She is seeing things, snap her out of it, believe me, she never sees good things," Ifrit said and Alix sighed, knowing it was the truth.

"Hey, Adora, whatever it is that you are seeing right, now, you need to snap out of it," Alix said as his black flames touch her hand and she gasped then the images began disappearing and she glanced at Alix and he smiled at her then she exhaled deeply and her eyes widened when she looked and saw the black smokes taking their true forms.

"Another fight huh? Sorry about that just now, I got lost," she said as her eyes lit up blue and they began hearing growling and they looked ahead of them and saw a large creature, glowing black and purple and a smirk appeared on Alix's face.

By then, all of the creatures had taken their form and there was enough for each of them to fight, their eyes lit up as they got ready to fight them off since it was the only way to get to the next door.
