Eliatrope

To the Final Battle

      And so it begins. Our journey to the Sadida Kingdom, and the rest of our lives. Adamai reluctantly gave us a ride so we could all get there. I felt bad, leaving Aster and Astred on Oma to go fight the final battle without them. I don't even know why I decided to leave them. Heck, I don't even know if they're okay!

Maybe it's because inside, something was telling me not to waste any time. But that part of me... It felt- It feels empty. Souless even. Or maybe just... Broken. A clock that can't tick properly. Almost as if it wasn't supposed to exist.

The more we venture fourth, the more I have these thoughts. Like I was something broken from the start. Afterall, how can someone be part of two things. An Eliatrope and a Xelor? We haven't even come any closer to finding out the truth about my parents, who they are, where they are... The only thing new I've learnt about them, is that one was a Xelor, and the other was an Eliatrope.

Stop it Kaido! Clear your mind and focus on the task at hand! (Get it? Because clocks have hands? And she's part Xelor: a Time Magi? Ha ha... Killme.)

But wait a second! If Xelor magic took from Dragon magic, which in a sense is just like Eliatrope magic... Then how the heck do I even have power?!

"Kai?" Yugo asked and placed his hand gently on my shoulder. "Are you okay?"

I shook my head slightly and looked at him, both of us making eye-contact.

"Oh uh, yeah." I said before looking ahead. "I just have a bad feeling. That's all."

"What for?" He asked curiously. "Now that we have the Dofus safe we don't have to worry! Besides, I'm sure we can beat Nox easily! You're a pretty good fighter!"

"Yeah but," I began, "I don't think I'm up for this. I can't read Wakfu currents, I can't make cool portal lazors, and I-"

"You don't need to be able to do that stuff!" He interrupted. "I think you just need to believe in yourself a bit more."

I blushed lightly at his statement.

"He's right, you know!" Adamai added from beneath us, seeing as how we were still progressing toward the Sadida Kingdom.

"I guess... You're right." I responded slowly, before givinf a small smile. Even though I knew they were probably right, I still felt like something terrible was going to happen. I couldn't shake it away either.

No matter how badly I tried to ignore it, it just wouldn't go away.

Hours had passed before Adamai finally told us we were arriving in the Sadida territory.

"Woohoo!" Yugo cheered. "We're gonna see our friends again!" He smiled at me.

I returned the smile before speaking. "Yeah! It'll be great!" As long as we win the fight...

We flew through a cloud and once we made it through, we were able to see land. The sun shone down on the grass at the edge, making it almost glow, while the trees stood tall and proud against the blue sky.

When we got closer, we could hear the sounds of people yelling. I assumed they were cheering for our arrival before a bunch of arows were shot at us. My eyes widened a little as Yugo began to speak.

"Hey! We're on your side!"

Adamai just did his best to keep the three of us from getting hit. He turned sharply and quickly, causing me to grab hold of Yugo's arm so I wouldn't fall.

"Yugo!" Adamai said. "Use your portals! Let's try to speak to their leader!"

"Yeah!" Yugo agreed as he concentrated his energy to make a portal big enough for all three of us to pass through.
