"You people look strangely familiar," the guy said as he stared at Adora and smirked.
"Seems like we got a big catch, today captain," a guy on his ship said, and Adora stared back as he came on her ship.
"Who are you and what are you want?" Nina asked.
"Who are you?" the guy asked as Yan stood before Nina who smiled.
"You were asked a question, I suggest you answer it, you don't board someone else's ship without their permission," Alix said coldly.
"Your highness, you are a feisty set," the guy replied, and Adora sighed.
"You have got a nice ship here, my lady," his crewmate said.
"Leave my ship if you have no business here," Adora said as she turned to walk away, and the captain grabbed her arm, having caused her to turn to face him.
"Let go of me or I will break your arm," she threatened.
"No need for that; where are you heading?" "for the finals?" he asked as Alix narrowed his eyes while looking at the captain.
He was a tall, slim, muscular young man with fair skin, grey eyes, and black hair, as well as a broad jawline and shoulders.
"I am not sure about this guy,' Alix thought.
"I recognized your team from television, your father and my family are friends, this might look like a great pirate ship, just like yours, but it's not, I am not a pirate my lady," he said, and Adora's eyes widened as she noticed the crest beside his ship and turned around to look at the others.
"Yan, come here," Adora said as she leaned in closer and whispered something in his ear before raising her head and smiling.
'Good Ayden isn't here,' Adora reflected as Yan walked away.
"Your family and my father may be friends, but you and I are not, so get off my ship before I break you and your ship," Adora said as her eyes turned red and he smirked.
"Now, now there is no need to be angry, you know you took him, believing you saved him, but you know the type of family he came from, he will break just watch, I have no intention of making an enemy out of you your highness, but I won't let him get his way either, he is a traitor to his family," he replied, to which Adora scoffed.
"I will never let you or your family have your way within my kingdom; mess with me, and I will burn your legacy to the ground; come at me, and I will destroy everything your family has ever loved," she said, and he looked at her with a stern expression.
"I suggest you don't threaten my family because you won't like the outcome," he said.
"And I suggest you get the hell off this ship because for some reason I really want to kill you," Alix said, his fists clenched.
"Relax Alix, and I really hope you understand what I'm saying, leave my ship right now, you came picking a fight with the wrong person, say hello to your family for me," Adora said as the guy returned to his ship, smirked, and looked back at Adora.
"See you soon, my lady," he said as he took off, and Adora sighed as their ship kept on moving full speed ahead.
"Is the pirate ship gone?" Ayden questioned as he returned to the deck with Yan.
"Yeah, they're gone, Ayden. I have a question for you," Adora said and he tilted his head while looking at her.
"If your family forces you using their own way to go back to them will you do it?" she asked and his eyes shook as he stared at her then lowered his head.
"Are you saying that guy that was here just now is a part of Ayden's family?" Yan asked.
"Yes, it was, so I want an answer, Ayden," she said, and he smiled at her.
"No matter what method they use, I will never return to them; I will never make that mistake, no matter what I won't waste this opportunity that you gave me, never" he replied.
"Ayden, relax, I don't know how we bumped into your family here of all places, but I think we're headed in the same direction, it doesn't matter, I just want you to know if you ever want to go back, you can, you have a choice, relax please," she said as she walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder, and he sighed in relief and smiled at Adora.
"I really don't want anything to do with them; I'm curious if we will run into them again," he said.
"Don't worry, even if we do, I will be there, and you're not the scared young man they once knew," she said, and he smiled before sitting.
"I don't like that guy," Alix said, looking at Adora.
'His protective instinct, impulse, everything seems to have changed,' Kyris thought.
"Adora, you know it won't be nice if we run into them again," Kyris warned.
"I am looking forward to a fight if that's what they want; I am not going to let them do whatever they want, even if my father doesn't like it; if they come at me, I will break them one by one," she replied with a smile, and Alix approached her, leaned in close, and she pulled back.
"W-what is it?" she asked.
"You need to practice hand-to-hand combat with me more," he said, and her brow twitched as she looked at him.
"Alix, you're crowding my space; move before I hurt you really bad," she muttered, and he smirked.
"You should have known that when you were crowding my space earlier, my lady," he said as she stomped him on his feet.
"Damn it," he said in a bit of pain as he moved away from her and she chuckled.
"I had to get rid of a bug on your shoe," she explained as she walked away, and he grinned.
