"Whatever he is, he is mine, do me a favor, track the guy down and send me the location when you do find him, I want to have a talk, no one attacks my students like that, I want to know what he knows and why he wanted to kill me along with the foolish boy," she said as she got into the car.
"Are you okay?" Sally asked as she looked at Alix's bleeding arm.
'Don't touch me..." he said with a sweating face.
"I am going home, I will see you later" he replied then left and Sally sighed.
"That I don't care what happens next look, it's not good for him," she thought.
'Take me back to the castle, I need to have a word with the king" she said as the driver drove off.
"Sure" he replied as Adora looked at her trembling hand and remembered the look Alix gave her.
"That's the first," she said.
"Argh.. my head," Alix said as he went into his apartment and his body felt as if it was on fire, he was boiling hot.
'What is wrong with me?" he asked as his entire body started paining and his eyes switched from red to green as his body started glowing red and green he looked in the mirror and saw his nails getting longer and his eyes trembled as he screamed and the mirror before him shattered.
"This is not happening, I am not a monster," he said as tears ran down his cheek and he fell unconscious on the floor but his body went back to normal.
The next morning when Alix finally regained consciousness he noticed his hair had a red stripe in between and he knew he didn't put it there.
"What the hell is this?" he asked as he went to freshen up.
"Today is the first day of the tournament, I hope we won't have to fight today, I am in no state to fight my entire body aches," he thought.
After he finished taking his bath, he got dressed and left the apartment heading to the bakery where he saw Ayden, Aerav, and Sarah waiting.
"Morning guys," he said.
"Woah what's up with your hair?" Sarah asked.
"What?" he asked.
"You have stripes, blue and red with green, it looks good on you," she said.
"Did you dye your hair?" Ayden asked.
"Yeah I didn't," he replied nervously while passing his hand on his hair.
'This is getting weirder," he thought as Sally brought out a bag with things for them to eat
"Sally, are you coming to see the beginning of the tournament?" Alix asked.
"No I can, we will all be watching on the television though, it will be live," she responded and he smiled while she stared at his hair.
"It's bright red and dark blue, it's how your face up more, but why did you color your hair?" Sally asked.
"I sort of just did," he replied.
"Alright guys time to get to the arena now, it's getting late and you don't want to keep Adora waiting she is in a pretty foul mood today," Elijah said as Alix scoffed.
"Just today?" he asked.
'You are messing with her head, the outcome won't be good Alix," Elijah replied as they got into the car and then left.
"I hope these kids make it out alive, this life that we are living it's not a safe one," Sally said as she walked back into the bakery.
"Alix are you okay?" Elijah asked as he looked at Alix from the mirror.
"I am fine Elijah," he responded.
After a little while of driving, they finally took a right turn and drove to the arena which was a huge building just outside of the city where the mountains and valleys were.
"Woah," Alix said as they came out of the car and he looked at the arena before them, the wind was cold and the place was noisy, Alix knew that if his turn came to fight on the very first day he is most likely to lose.
"You guys go through the main gate, the guards will let you in, also Alix meet with the princess she said she wanted to talk to you, I will park the car," Elijah said and he nodded his head yes as he walked into the arena.
The seats were filled and the referee was in the ring which was direct at the center of the arena, there was a barrier around it just in case things went south so the audience won't get hurt.
"This is epic, people from all over the kingdom are here," Sarah said as they looked around, they saw the top graduates from the academy sitting in the VIP section where the royals were and Alix spotted the princess too.
"Oh no," Alix said as the princess got up from the very top VIP section in the arena and she was heading towards him.
"I see you guys made it just in time," she said.
'Your highness" Sarah and the others said as they bowed their head.
"No need to bow, Sarah you have a match today," she said.
"Wait, we are;t going as a team?" Ayden asked.
"There will be team against team match, but not today, it's individual, I cannot do anything about this, I am trying my best to handle this," she responded.
"Alix what are you here for? a fashion show? I get you are well handsome, I guess, no need to show off your looks more by adding stripes," she said and he sighed.
"Somethings I wonder if you pretend or you are just dumb," he said and a smirk appeared on her face as she leaned in closer, he pulled back nearly falling over the rail but she grabbed him by the collar.
"I am not your friend, you don't speak to me like that, are we clear? answer me or I will let you break something right here, right now by letting you fall," she said in a cold tone and his eyes trembled.
