Rise of the Malactric Heir

They smiled when they heard his questions, and Zavis looked at the spirit.

"We have no ill will," Zavis said.

"We only want to do what is right," Ifrit said, and the spirit smiled at him.

"We intend to destroy it; there is an enemy at hand, one who wants the powers of the crystal to do no good; destroying them will help prevent what he intends to do," Alix said, as the man sighed.

"I see, well, I know about the enemy, I sensed it because of the other crystals, he is dangerous, I can't see the face, but when he raises, a lot will fall, you are both connected to him more than you think," the man replied, pointing to both Adora and Alix and she lowered her head.

'I don't care who he is or who he might be to us, how he is connected, none of that matters.' "Alix said as Adora stared at him, and his eyes began to glow red as the man stared at him.

"Very well, since you have no bad intentions, I will put you to the test, let's see what the crystal does to you two, it won't do anything to you boy because you have crystal powers, step aside," the man said, then Zavis sighed and looked at Adora.

"It's okay, Zavis," she said as her eyes widened and everyone looked at each other.

"They've arrived, I'd rather you take the crystal, there won't be time for a test, either way, they'll be able to take it because I'm not strong enough to protect it, if only this thing was destroyed by them in the past, this wouldn't be happening," the man said, then looked at Adora and Alix and smiled as he began glowing white and the hill began to shake.

"What's going on?" the men approaching the hill inquired, and Vellon smirked.

"It's the crystal emerging," Vellon responded as they rushed to the hill, and Adora and the others stared in horror as the giant crystal appeared before them, piercing through the top of the hill, causing the hill to collapse, and Vellon smiled when he saw the crystal, then it shrunk a little, enough for them to carry in a car, and they sighed.

"Listen, I'm not sure if you'll leave today with the crystal, but both the past and the future are up to you, protect yourselves, because if you guys fall, so does everyone else, fulfill your duties, the reason you guys were born, your mother would be proud of you too, princess as well as you Alix," he said before disappearing and the two looked at each other.

"Us?" Alix asked.

"I am just as confused as you are, so don't go getting any ideas," she replied, "but I know a few things, so I have an idea," he scoffed.

"Guys, I understand what he was saying about fulfilling your duties, the reason you were born, and so on, but I am beginning to think we have bigger problems on our hands," Zavis said as they looked at him and then at the crystal, which was emitting a dark aura and Alix clenched his fists as he looked at it.

"Don't let it get to you no matter what, Alix," Adora said, and he sighed as her eyes began to glow red and a red magical dome formed around them along with the crystal.

"Reinforce the barrier, they won't let us get away so we might as well protect ourselves and be ready, they will want to fight," Adora said as Kyris along with Yan reinforced her barrier then they sighed as they remained on guard and Adora looked at the crystal.

"This crystal is really bad news," she, Alix, and Ifrit all said at the same time, drawing the attention of the others.

"Scott, you okay?" Alix asked and Scott smirked.

"Yeah, it's been a while since I've been in a real fight, so I'm fine here," he responded, and Alix smiled.

"Well, well," Vellon said as he and his men approached them and Adora looked at him and he smirked.

"You are really a pain, aren't you princess?" Vellon asked as one of his men attempted to enter the barrier dome and his hand began to burn, and the others gasped as Vellon smirked before the guy's hand returned to normal.

"You guys are seriously getting more on my nerves and his, hand the crystal over, this time won't be like the last," Vellon said with pure rage in his eyes while looking at Adora and her eyes narrowed.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" What, it won't help you get to the crystal Vellon? "Are you too frail to come and get it yourself?" He chuckled as she asked, her eyes turning red.

"There you go with the tone in, which makes me wonder how well you know me," he responded.

Nina said angrily, "I think she knows you better than you know yourself, bastard," and Yan grabbed her.

"You're a strange bunch; tell me what you're going to gain by getting in his way?" Vellon inquired.

"Who is "his," idiot?" Vellon scoffed when Alix asked.

"I heard you were the most talented newcomer in the group, bastard, where did you come from?" Vellon asked.

"Unlike you, I'm not offended by being called a bastard," Alix responded, and the others smirked.

"I will kill you and your precious pets, princess," Vellon said as he approached the barrier and placed his hand against it, and they gasped when he didn't get burned.

"It's breakable, attack it, don't stop until it's broken, don't worry about who gets hurt, the crystal is our top priority, they won't even be able to destroy it that easily, that crystal is a monstrous poison to your mind, it will only do more damage especially if you have darkness within you, destroy the barrier we are getting that crystal today, no matter what happens, don't let them get in your way or you will all be killed," Vellon said, and the men began attacking the barrier that was being held up by Kyris and the others.
