"Uh... Adora, we've arrived," Kyris said.
"Take their bracelets off," she replied, and Kyris did as instructed as the ship's door opened and everyone, including the captain, rushed to Adora.
"Your highness, I hope you enjoy your stay here," the captain said as the pirate crew followed them out of the ship.
"You guys are free to go, but I have my eyes on you, especially you captain," she replied as they divided the gold and bowed to Adora before leaving.
"Your highness," the captain said as he prepared to leave, and two black fancy cars arrived, and Adora looked at the ship's captain, who smiled.
"I arranged it for you guys," he clarified.
"I see, thank you, captain, and pirate, what were you saying?" Adora asked.
"Uh... thank you, I guess, and be careful," he said, her eyes narrowing.
pαпᵈα-noνɐ1·сoМ "Be careful?" "Why are you of all people warning her?" Alix questioned.
"This kingdom is one of the largest, filled with different types of people and monsters just like yours my lady, but it can get really dark, good luck," he replied then left, and the team exchanged glances.
"Don't worry guys, let's go," Kyris said as they climbed into their cars.
"Alix, you will be going in the next car with me," Adora said, and he looked at her.
"Why?" he questioned.
"Stop asking questions and get in the next car," she said, "wait, let me split you guys," she responded and Kyris smiled.
"Kyris, Yan, Eliza, Sarah, and Ayden will be going in one car, the cars are big enough for five people, just like the ones back home," she explained. "As for the others, Alix, Aerav, Kyllan, and Nina will be coming with me in the other car, am I clear?"
"Crystal clear, another person can fit in here," Kyris replied.
"No, that's enough," she said, looking at the captain of the ship.
"Thank you, old man," she said, and he patted her on the head.
"Be careful, I am going to take care of my ship," he warned and she chuckled as she got into the car and took off first while the others followed because no one wanted to be separated from each other even by mistake.
"Woah," Nina exclaimed as they left the docks and entered the kingdom's city, which was teeming with all manner of people and monsters who were pets.
"Aren't people afraid of walking around in public with their beasts like that?" Alix questioned.
"Nope, some are powerful enough to take on a challenge right there and then, it's not that different, I want you guys to be careful here," Adora said, looking out the window.
"You are being extra cautious," Kyllan observed, and Adora looked at him.
"I have many reasons to be here," she replied, "after all, you are all my responsibility, and we could get into a lot of trouble here."
"We will assist; after all, we are a team, aren't we? If we run into trouble, we will simply face it together; you don't have to bear the brunt of it alone " Alix said and Adora smiled.
"That's great to hear, Alix," she replied.
"Do you guys want to stop somewhere and get something to eat or drink?" Adora asked.
"How about we go check out the arena, then maybe grab some lunch?" Alix inquired, and both Kyllan along with Nina agreed with him.
"All right, if that's what you guys want," she replied.
"Can you take us to the arena where the tournament will be held, driver?" Adora asked.
"As you wish," he replied then Adora sighed as Kyris and the others followed them.
"I am curious as to where we are going," Eliza said.
"I don't know, but this place is cool," Kyris responded. "I am amazed at how free some of them are with their monsters; back home, we just have a little more love for them."
"Our homes might be similar, but what the pirate said gave me chills," Sarah said, and Kyris smiled.
"Don't worry, Sarah, I am sure everything will be fine; in any case, we're all here for each other; we will protect and defend each other, right?" Kyris questioned, and she smiled.
"You are right, we have all grown and can protect ourselves and others; we are not the same as we used to be," she responded, and they both smiled.
"Adora said we might run into trouble, I wonder what we will have to face, kind of worries me, but I am excited for a fight," Eliza said, and Kyris scoffed.
"We all need to blow off steam, but let's not pray for a fight; we won't win every time, and the danger this time is great," Kyris responded.
"You are right, we've never been in fights like you guys before, we don't know if we will win or lose, but if it comes down to a fight where our lives are on the line, we won't run away, not after coming this far," Ayden said, and Yan smiled.
'You sure know what you are doing Adora, teaching them to never give up on themselves, this is a team with a lot of potential, you've helped them a lot, they have grown so fast and they understand better about how things work, their powers, thanks to you, you really are a great person, I hope we can all help you back someday,' Kyris thought as he looked out the window.
"We have arrived at the arena, be careful, it is heavily guarded," the driver said as the car came to a halt and Adora and the others stepped out. Adora smiled as she looked at the massive arena before them, which was heavily guarded with electric fences and magical barriers and was located in the city's mountain area.
"This is the ideal location for an arena this size; if the fights get out of hand, it won't have any effect on the people, this finals will be really big that's for sure," Kyris said as he approached Adora.
