Docks

Auria's POV

"Are you sure you did the right thing? He has no way to get out now." Kai asked. "He deserves it. He's a traitor to the crown and me. We have to continue without him, to Oderga. I managed to get as much info as I could before he could notice me. I had a few close calls. The sun elf is Adelaide First of Air Camp, and she's fled back to her home country. I don't know what camp she's in, but we should try Air first. Or fire. We have a comrade in the Fire camp, technically two. Faelern and Seena. |Flern ;-;|" Kai nodded. I brought out my dagger. "Qui vidit mortem. Qui apparebant ultra extrinsecus." It glowed and transformed into a tiara. I quickly put it on and we approached the docks. I pinned the small amount of hair I had up and thanked the fact that I had some decent clothes left. Kai and I got changed into some posh clothes, me wearing a white and red dress with a corset. He was wearing a normal white collared shirt and red pants. I laughed at Kai, who was trying to look serious. He ended up looking like a constipated tomato. "Hey, atleast I'm not like that all the time. Oh, and by the way, your eyes are messed up again." I touched my eye. "What colors?" I asked. "Blueish gray and green." I cursed and brushed some hair in front of the blue one.  "You may need to hide the kitten. If they ask about Arlyn, just wing it. Say he turned back to deliver a message or something. But no matter what, we leave now. No Arlyn." He nodded and we rode up to the Savage Princess. "Hey, Nina. Sorry we're a little late, we got caught up with some.. troubles. We're, uhm, changing course to Oderga. Is that possible?"  Nina looked up at us from her work. "Who are you? Her Majesty just boarded. Get lost." I got off my horse. "We've met before. I'm Auria, not these imposters." She shook her head. "The real princess is green-eyed and an eagles member. You're neither." I stepped back and looked at my collarbone. "Damn Aileene. She likes to change my appearance. Like I used to have a bird tattoo. She can do her magic to change my appearance, and the blue eye is hers." I went to my pack and started digging for the seal and some proofs of our identity. "They're gone! Kai, our seals are gone!" I stood back up. "Must've been Arlyn." A bell sounded on the ship. "We're leaving. Get one of the guards to arrest these imposters." Nina called out to her shipmate. He rushed away. "Wait, Nina. We're not the imposters. We've met. Ask me any question, and I'll answer it correctly." The sailor returned with around ten buff guards. They surrounded us and one grabbed Kai's arm. "Stop! STOP!" I yelled, with a voice not my own. The guards paused for only a moment before grabbing my arms. They locked my hands in iron handcuffs. "I don't want to fight you. STOP!" Flames engulfed me. The guards surrounding us backed away. My hair was flying upwards and I was on fire. My dress was charred and torn. One of the guards held his burnt hand. I held my hand out and a splash of water landed on it. "That's what you get for trying to arrest a powerful mage noble princess. Now this meant to be secret mission has the whole dock's attention. Please get these cuffs off me before I break someone's neck with them." One of the guards stepped forward shakily. "I won't burn you unless you give me more reasons to." He unlocked the cuffs. I rubbed my wrists and addressed Nina. "Now you see it's me? You should get those imposters off the boat, and fast." She nodded and we all boarded the boat.
