Emerald P.O.V

"We should get out of this place" I said when silence surrounded us. He looked at me raising his eye brow "Don't you think that I haven't tried it" his words giving no assurance to me. I sighed and closed my eyes. 

There are lots of soldiers for us to fight.

We can not fight them.

Suddenly a bulb lighten in my head. I have got my powers back. I am fully capable of fighting these creatures on my own. 

But what if I lost control?

What if she came forward?

I can't take risk.

I am feeling like a ticking time bomb, a slight mistake make me go off.  

Just then, Alex made a triumph noise and looked at me with glee. 

"You got your powers back, right?" he asked, I nodded my head still confused that where he is going with this. 

"And you can manipulate air element" he stated grinning.

Okay.

"You want us to fly out of this place?" I asked him, joining the dots. He quickly nodded his head proud by his idea. Well, it is a good idea but there is a catch, there are flying creature as well whom will fight to us.

When did you become this person?

You are afraid of fighting these creature?

You are a Warrior Princess, you can hold on your own.

You are a Sabriyan, you can control yourself, she won't come out.

You have been keeping her at bay for decade now, you can do it.

"Let's do this" I smirked at him, cracking my knuckles.

We slowly made our way outside of the cave, creature were still running around doing their works. Lets get this show on the road. We slowly walked forward nonchalantly not to draw attention towards us. "What's the plan?" Alex whispered beside me, I looked at him from the corner of my eyes and shrugged my shoulder in response "Just go with the flow" I murmured. When we reached a secluded place where I couldn't find any creature, I quickly call my air power, grabbing Alex hand. I started taking heights and in no time we were in the sky without any interruption.

"Whoo hoo" Alex made a noise from his throat, he looked excited, air was slapping at our face. I quickly scan the area for any flying creature we could possibly encounter but coast was clear. 

Is this for real?

"Come on what are you waiting for" Alex yelled because of the heavy wind. I averted my eyes from the Baruna and nodded my head. "Hold on tight" I shouted and with that we flew in the sky with speed.

"Where are we?" he asked when we landed at a place for rest.  "I don't know" I said looking around, how come we get here. This place look weird , energy surrounding this place is different. I slowly started walking in the forest, everything is bright here. Its like there is something calling me here. 

"Emerald, what is this place?" Alex asked again, he too can feel the pull of this place. His eyes is shining bright looking around taking in the view. 

Just then I felt it and my face quickly fell taking in the condition. I quickly took the hand of Alex, pulling him towards where we came from.

"What happened, I thought we were resting?" he asked confused and a little astonished with my forceful nature. "We shouldn't be here" I muttered worried, we have to get out of here as soon as possible.

"Why?" he asked stopping himself from being dragged. I stopped as well "We have to go" I said urgently looking around, my heartbeat rising . I took a deep breath to calm my heart.

I have to be in control.

He raised his eye brow waiting for my response. I opened my mouth to answer him when some one beat me to it.

"I thought, I sense familiar energy" A voice said, we both jerked our head in that direction looking at the figure walking towards us. My eyes widened and I quickly ran in their direction. My worry forgotten for the time being. I quickly latched myself to them hugging them tightly.

"Aunt Cassy" I whispered engulfing her sweet scent which I am familiar with since childhood. We broke the hug and she looked at me calmly. "Emy, Its being so long" she asked looking at me, taking me in. Then I remembered the issue at hand. "Get away from me Aunt, she tricked me, she wanted you that's why she tricked me in coming here knowing very well that I can found you because of the connection we share" I said quickly and started taking steps back, standing beside Alex again. She stared at me after my rant and gave me a slow smile. "Not to worry child, no one can find me if I don't want to be found" She said walking towards me and putting her hand on my shoulder.

"Now tell me, who is the young man?" She said looking at Alex curiously. Alex who was standing frozen on his place get out of his bubbles and bowed his head in respect. "I am Alexander, Prince of Midnight" he introduced himself, Aunt nodded her head smiling at him. "I thought when we are going to meet again the King of the Midnight will accompany you but I guess that I will have to wait for it" She said giving me sly smile. I averted my eyes away from her shyly, she knows he is my mate. 

"We have a problem" I said avoiding Chase topic. I don't know where our relationship stand right now. I am the one who want to destroy whole world including his home and he is my mate who want to save it. "I know, that's why you are here, the time has come" she said in somber voice, I looked at Alex in worry and he gave me the same look.

"But one thing before we start the ritual, this Prince has to go home" She said and with the flicker of her wrist Alex vanished from the view. I looked at her confused. 

"I will tell you everything" She said taking my hand in her and walking towards the direction from where she came a while ago. I followed her without any complaints knowing she knows better than me. We walked for a while and I looked at my surrounding this time calmly taking in the view of this place.

"Do you like it?" She asked still walking, I nodded my head "Very".

"This is my home" She said appreciating the calm and gentle nature of this place. I looked at her amazed, wow this place is better than any castle or any forest. "And you are welcome here any time" she said smiling. My face fell, I shouldn't be here, I have a monster residing in me who want to come out to destroy this place and she is welcoming me here.

"Isn't this place have some enchantment from intruder?" I questioned.

She gave a laugh "This place can only be seen if I want them to see it" she said, oh that's why Rose can never find her even if she tried hard.

I stopped in front of a waterfall, it was very beautiful and mesmerizing. I looked at it in awe. I have never saw that scene before. "This is beautiful" I said , Aunt stand beside me looking at the same view. "Yeah, it is, that's why nobody will guess that its a portal to a different realm" she said, I stare at her in bewilderment, making portal to the other world is impossible, it takes lots of energy, why did she create it?

"Why do we need a portal?" I asked

She looked at me and gave me a sad smile, "So that she can portal to HELL".
