Rise of the Malactric Heir

"Ask us anything, we will answer as much as we can," Adora said as Sally drank the glass of water that she was given, then she looked at Adora and a gentle smile appeared on her face. 

"I am sorry princess, that you have had to deal with all of this as well, I know you are caught up in the middle as well, am I right or wrong?" Sally asked and Alix smiled a little then Adora nodded and Sally sighed. 

"I know that, I am sorry for everything you have been through as well," Sally added. 

"She has been strong, even though she lost as well, she pushed through and became similar to that of a leader," Alix said and Sally smiled when she looked at him and saw the two looking at each other and her brows furrowed. 

"I see, yeah, you are right, also, the two of you are quite similar to each other you know, more than you imagine, both of you have too much in common," Sally replied and Alix scoffed.

"What? Don\'t you agree with me on this, Alix? Are you not seeing properly huh?" Sally asked and Dral chuckled as did Zack, who wanted to laugh at Alix but held back. 

"I agree with you, damn you don\'t have to be ready to eat my head out over something like this," Alix responded and Sally smiled at him before glancing at Adora, who was staring at Alix with a little disagreement, clearly shown on her face and his brows furrowed. 

"What?" he asked and she scoffed then went to get something to eat since she was feeling peckish and Sally chuckled. 

"You still have way more to go in certain ways that\'s for sure, now I need to catch up with everything that is going on, I see the knights and a few of the nobles as well as others with abilities that are working for them, being busy these past few weeks, what is going on? Are you guys going to start filling me in or not?" Sally asked and Alix smiled at her a little. 

"All right, we will fill you in on the need to know, the necessary, we have to watch how we speak as well, who knows who might be listening, I will tell you how everything happened, including how I ended up at the place I was born, how I came to know the truth and what\'s going on right now, you have an idea about that already though," Alix responded as Sally looked at him. 

"I see, then that\'s interesting and worth my time, go on," she said and Alix chuckled. 

"Well, the very same one that destroyed everything back then is the leader of the ones that we are fighting against now and he is also the one that killed Adora\'s mother," Alix replied and her eyes widened as they shook and at the same time, Adora came towards them and Sally glanced at her. 

"Adora," Alix said and she sighed.

"It\'s fine, it\'s true and she needs to know as well, after all, she was once a part of it all, there is no need to hide it, Alix, I am fine with it, I can\'t change the past, but..." she replied as her eyes narrowed and Alix glanced at her and his brows furrowed. 

"All right, if you say so, then I will continue telling her the rest of it," Alix said and she nodded then began eating what she bought since she was hungry. 

Since they were in an area within the cafe where no one else was sitting, Alix began telling Sally what she needed to know and about how their trip went, including everything else in between. 

As Alix was telling Sally what happened during their trip, she paid close attention and lowered her head as he was talking parts of it, since the past came to her mind and she gritted her teeth then clenched her right fist. 

"They destroyed everything back then and now again? What more do they want? How much more are they going to destroy? We can\'t let the same thing repeat itself once again, so they are the ones behind everything that you guys have been facing these days?" Sally asked with a little bit of fear in her eyes/ 

Alix saw that and he exhaled deeply, knowing that she had every right to feel the way she was at the moment and Alix nodded, knowing that certain things were kept from Sally by Dral for her own good. 

"Yeah, they are the same ones, during most of our journey, we didn\'t expect that we would end up at the home of the Malactrics, the place where I came from, where my history lies, something I think I didn\'t have, I didn\'t expect that I would be the missing piece along with the leade of the enemies, most of the things that happened was unexpected, still are," Alix responded and Sally sighed. 

"Yeah, I understand, I am sorry as well Alix, for all that you have lost," Sally said and Alix looked at her then smiled before sighing. 

"It\'s okay, there is no need to apologize, none of it was any of you guy\'s fault, I am grateful that you both protected me and did everything you could, if it weren\'t for you guys, I wouldn\'t be here today nor meet the people that I have or know the truth, thank you," he replied and Sally smiled at him. 

"You are welcome, your parents would have been proud of you if they were here today, I hope we can all get past all of this as soon as possible with less damage, if possible, the enemy is strong and won\'t care about who dies next," Sally said. 

"You are right, which is why our final plan to face them has to start, now I will talk to you guys more, matter for now I am going to show him to my apartment, it\'s going to be night in a few," Alix replied and Sally nodded. 

Zack and Adora left the building with Alix, heading to his apartment, while Dral stayed with Sally to talk more since they hadn\'t seen each other in a while.
