Chapter 214 Disturbed

Upon entering her room, Adora took her bag and placed it on the bed in her room, which was so big that it could fit five people.

"Not much has changed, this kind of feels a bit relaxing," she said as she drew the curtains and opened the balcony door.

"Wow," she exclaimed while gazing out the window at the city and the valleys along with the rivers and houses not far away.

"So this is your room," Alix said as he entered her room, and she turned to face him.

"Which one is yours?" she inquired.

"Mine, along with Kyri's and Sarah's, is down the hall," he replied as Kyris approached and rested his arm on Alix's shoulder.

"This is a very nice room," Kyris said.

"Are you guys happy with yours?" she inquired as Zack and Sarah entered.

"I see my room is being invaded again," she said and they sat on her bed, Alix lying back on her soft pillows.

"They are soft, really soft, and we're happy with our rooms," Alix said to which Adora smiled.

"You're a bunch of room invaders," she remarked and Kyris chuckled while approaching her.

"Nice view, isn't it peaceful here?" Kyris inquired.

"Yeah, it is," she replied as Kyris took the rose from her grasp.

"This is nice, and it smells good too," Kyris said and she smiled.

"Please give it back now," she said as the wind blew it out of his hand, but because it flew in Alix's direction, he grabbed onto it, and Adora looked back at him as he sniffed the rose.

"It smells nice," he commented.

"Can I have it back now, or do you intend to keep it?" she inquired.

"Hmm, maybe I'll keep it, do you have a problem?' he asked.

"It was given to me, so I'd like it back; try to take it and you'll be sorry," she replied.

"I don't mind," he said as the others laughed, and she sighed.

"Are you sure you don't want to give it back?" she asked as he grabbed onto her hand, pulled her down a bit, then raised up and placed the rose in her hair and she left staring at him as her hand began trembling along with her eyes and she moved away from him immediately.

"What's the matter? Angry because I touched you? If so then sorry, I guess," Alix said and she lowered her head.

"No, that's not it," she replied.

"Oh good," Zavis said, "because you don't push us away if we touch you." Adora's eyes began to glow red.

"Are you all right?" Nina inquired, and Adora smiled before her eyes returned to normal and no one saw, well so she thought.

"Yeah I am fine, I am sorry, Alix," she responded and he smiled a bit.

"Sure, no problem," he said as she sat down on the bed and he passed her one of the small round chocolates he had picked up, which she took.

"Thank you," she said.

"You are welcome," he replied as she opened the chocolate and ate it.

"So, what are you going to do now?" Adora inquired, placing her hand on her chest.

"Nothing for now; I'm going back to sleep because I didn't sleep well last night," Kyris replied.

"Well, I need to talk to you all for a minute, call the others, I'm just going to give a brief explanation on another clue," she said, and Kyllan went to call the others into Adora's room, who arrived within a minute.

"We are all ears," Alix said.

"Go ahead," Kyllan said, "we're all listening now."

"Well, the king discovered an ancient way for us to track down the next source and see what it might be now," she replied.

"All right, what way?" Alix inquired.

"I need to get a map, one that will show the location of the next source, but it has to be on a full moon night, because the light of the moon will shine upon the map, showing us the direction," she replied, and Kyris' and Alix's brows furrowed while thinking.

"And you know where to get this map right?" Alix asked and Kyris sighed.

"Yeah, I do, that's not something anyone should be concerned about getting, but once we find the location, they might find it too, or maybe they already know, either way, we might have to fight because they won't let us get away with it this time," she replied, and they all smiled.

"We are not overconfident, but we will be ready your highness; however, when will there be a full moon?" Ayden inquired.

"Don't worry, we'll know in a week or a few days, but starting tomorrow, things will get tough and I want you all to focus more, but please don't overdo it, there is a limit to training, am I clear?" Adora inquired, and they bowed their heads with their eyes closed, but just as Alix was about to bow his, she placed her finger under his chin, and he looked at her.

"Don't," she said quietly.

"We understand, your highness," they all replied, and she had already moved her hand away from Alix before they raised their heads to look at her.

'What made her do that?' Is it all related to what she knows? 'I know I want to know, but I'll wait a little longer,' Alix reasoned.

"Alix, where are you lost this time?" Eliza asked and he smiled.

"Just thinking about the past, present, and future," he replied, and Adora smiled at him.

"That's good in a way, but don't overthink it," Eliza advised.

"I'm sure he's not, I know it sounds cold, but..." Adora said.

"Some of us may not have a future, I think we all know that by now," Alix said as they smiled.

"Adora, if you are still worried, don't be, we all made our choices, and we won't regret it," Cameron said.

"All right, if that's what you're all sticking to, then so be it," she said as she leaned back in her bed.
