(Kris POV)
We finally made it back to Alex's Kingdom and into the long halls. "Go check if Elliot and Jordi have finished their training, We'll be in the debriefing room," Alex said as he walked through a door with Millie and vanished. I walked through the long hall full of paintings and guards while looking for the training room. After some admiring of the artwork, I come across the door with a huge label with the words "Training" on it. Two of the sentinels guarding the door nodded at me as to say hello as they opened the door for me. I nodded back and walked in. I looked around the room full of training dummies and spotted Elliot and Jordi chatting on one of the benches laid down across the room. Elliot spotted me first, "Hey! So youre not dead, good!" She said as Jordi waved me over. I walked to them and sat down on a bench that was next to the one they were sitting down on. "How was the mission? Did you guys find anything?" Elliot asked. "We found the water kingdom, and we liberated it. Dark knight threatened them into the deep sea." I told them. "That's horrible!" Jordi said. "Yeah, but we did it, they're liberated and back onto the surface. Alex wanted me to tell you guys to meet him in the debriefing room. I bet Tombstone and AJ are back." I said as I got up. They got up as well. "Me and Elliot are done with training anyways so we should head back," Jordi said. "How was it?" I said while starting to walk out. They followed. "Exhausting." Elliot said. After some walking, we finally made it to the debriefing room. I opened the door and looked inside, where Alex and Millie were talking about the water kingdom and what they've missed out on, AJ seemed to be lost in thought, and Tombstone was talking to Katzen while wearing a Fox mask that Sharky seemed to be matching with the one Sharky was wearing. They all stopped what they were doing as the three of us stepped into the room. "Jordi! How are you feeling man??" Tombstone said. "I feel good, man," Jordi replied. "Elliot, Jordi, this is Millie, the newest recruit, and also the water elemental," I said while motioning over at Millie. "Millie, these two are Jordi and Elliot, The primordials of Fire, and plants and stuff like that," I told Millie while sitting down in one of the chairs pointed towards Alex. "So, how was the mission? What did you two uncover?" I asked Tomb since AJ was still lost in his thought. "Oh you know, we entered their kingdom, and some 'Dark Council' huddled around this cool-looking tree with dark knight while some weird voice spoke and it apparently broke some sort of seal." Tomb said, to my surprise he actually had sense in his words, barely. "What?" Alex said in a concerned tone. "Listen that was too much talking on my end, let AJ explain the rest." He said as he picked up Sharky and placed him on his lap. "AJ, care to explain what just happened over there?" Alex said, snapping his fingers to get AJ out of his trance. "We're in so much trouble." was AJ's only response. "What did you see?" Alex said hoping what AJ will say is not even more concerning. "The Tree of Life, The Seal, Seviathan. It's all started." AJ said looking more distraught than ever, "We need to act. FAST." He let out before going back into his thoughts.
