Rise of the Malactric Heir



After taking Zack to his apartment, Alix opened the door and when he entered he smiled a little since the place was still clean, knowing that while he was gone, Sally was the one that was taking care of his place for him. 

Zack entered his apartment with permission, then he closed the door behind them and Adora looked around his apartment, then smiled a little and Alix glanced at her. 

Zack smiled at how nice Alix place was and a little cozy despite being a little small and Alix looked at him then approached him and Zack glanced at him. 

"So, is it to your liking Zack?" Alix asked and Zack looked back at him then smiled a little. 

"Think it won't do because you guys saw the type of place I live in?" he asked and Alix shrugged then Zack chuckled, knowing that's exactly what he was thinking. 

"Don't worry, this is perfect, it's nice and sort of cozy, right, Adora?" Zack asked and she glanced at him. 

"Yeah, cozy it is," she responded as Zack kept on looking at the two of them.

Alix noticed that he was looking and he scoffed then opened the curtains of the balcony.

"Well, I am glad that you are okay with staying here, you can stay for a s long as you like, I don't mind..." Alix said as he looked at Adora. 

Alix noticed that she was slightly lost in her own thoughts and his brows furrowed, wondering what she was thinking about so intently. 

"As long as you don't mind, thanks for letting me stay here Alix, even though you have not known me for that long, I really appreciate it," Zack said and Alix smiled at him. 

"You are welcome, also I know you enough to let you stay over, we have all been together for a good while," Alix replied and Zack nodded. 

Zack opened the balcony door and went outside and he smiled as he saw the view that he got, which was a nice one of that which was in the city and his brows furrowed when he focused on the air that was flowing around him. 

"Adora," someone called out and Zack flinched when Ifrit appeared on the balcony before him and Ifrit looked down at him and Zack exhaled deeply. 

"You are going to give someone a heart attack, with what's going on lately, don't just show up out of nowhere," Zack said. 

"He is right, you will get hurt," Alix added and Ifrit smiled at them. 

"Ah, I am sorry, this was one of the shortest, I am feeling a bit lazy today, so don't mind me guys," he said as they stared at him then laughed and Adora sighed before stepping into the balcony. 

"What is it Ifrit? Did something happen as soon as we get back?" she asked and he glanced at her. 

"Not as yet, no, nothing has happened but I would like you to come with me," he responded and her brows furrowed as did Alix's. 

"Now? I am not in the mood for work you know Ifrit," she said and he smiled at her then she sighed. 

"Fine, I will come along with you, Alix, I will see you later, I guess," she added as she looked back at him.

Alix smiled at her then nodded and Adora grabbed onto Ifrit's hand and he jumped down. 

Both Alix and Zack rushed to look down and fire formed under Ifrit's feet, balancing his body and both of them landed on the ground and Alix sighed. 

"You guys really are reckless at times, the sun is going down, be careful, you two," Zack said and Adora looked up at them as she released Ifrit then waved at Alix and he chuckled, as Zack looked at them then scoffed. 

"Don't worry, we will be just fine," Adora replied then left with Ifrit and Alix sighed. 

'I hope so, these days, I have been getting that feeling, whatever it is, it's nothing good and it's close, damn it, I hope she is not going to get into any sort of problem, who knows what can happen next,' Alix thought as he went inside with Zack, who closed the balcony door as night fell. 

"Ifrit, what's the matter?" Adora asked and he glanced at her. 

"Let's just talk a bit, also, with the way they do things, especially their leader, they won't wait long but Alix already knows that, I hear they want to hold a meeting tomorrow as well," Ifrit responded as they walked a street. 

"I see, so they will be gathering the other leaders, well it is time for that, we don't want to wait too long or it might be too late," he said and Ifrit nodded. 

"Where are we going though?" she asked and he glanced at her. 

"Part of the energy is disturbed here, I will show you, I followed it on my own and found it, we might have a bit of a problem on our hands," he responded and she sighed. 

"All right, I will have a look, if anything we will talk to Xemon," she said and he nodded. 

A little while after, Adora and Ifrited headed to the place that they needed to go, someone knocked on Alix's door then rang the bell and Alix looked and his brows furrowed. 

"Expecting someone?" Zack asked, even though he was on his phone. 

"Not that I know of," he responded. 

Alix got up and walked to the door and Zack got up from the couch with his eyes glowing blue, just in case it was an unexpected guess. 

"Who is it?" Zack asked and Alix peeked through the hole in the door then he sighed and opened it and at the same time, Zack's right arm began glowing blue. 

"Sorry for the intrusion," Kyris said as he walked in and a few of the others followed him in and Alix left staring at them as they walked in. 

"You guys," Alix said and when they saw that Zack was ready for attack, some of them jumped and he exhaled deeply then Alix sighed and the ones that barged into his home, smiled at him then Alix closed the door properly behind them.
