Well, get ready to see more of Alexander Belos' family. Let's just say, he has a problem with them.


Emperor Belos has had a lot happen in his life. Some was good, a lot was bad. He's made numerous enemies, had several attempts on his life, almost lost his wife during her early reign as Empress, his daughter has been the target for assassins for the past fourteen years, and his daughter was currently in another realm, possibly dead. But, the good parts of his life made him... better. He used to be ruthless, a man hellbent on crushing his enemy, a man that had no heart, no feeling. Then he saved Camila from a griffin. Suddenly, he felt something he never felt before. He felt love. He felt joy. When he proposed to her and she said yes, he cried for the first time, he was that happy. The day Luz was born and he held her in his arms for the first time, he took his mask off so she could see the face of the man that would protect her. The smile she gave him when she saw his face made him happy. He was a father. Even after all the bad things happen, his family was what kept him going.

"Alex?"

"Hello, Camila."

"You're worried about Luz, aren't you?"

"Can you blame me?"

"No, but you still have a job to do." Camila said, "And I'm still here for you. I'll be the shoulder you cry on."

"Thank you, Camila. I feel better alre-"

"Oh, Alexander!"

"Oh, please don't tell me that's who I think it is." Belos said.

Belos looked behind him and saw a woman in her mid-thirties, with green hair, and pale skin skipping towards him. Very contradictory to Belos dark brown hair, and light tan skin.

"Hey, Alex. We heard what happened. I'm sorry." She said.

"If you were sorry, then you would get out there and drag Nathaniel back by the hair!" Belos yelled.

"Wow, you are way more intimidating without your mask." She said, "Your real voice doesn't hurt either."

"I don't understand why you're even here. I would've thought that the best assassin on the Boiling Isles would have something better to do then come visit me."

"I came because Mother is worried about you."

"Well, that's a first! Isn't she the one that cast me aside when we were kids?!"

"Are you really going to hold on to that even after all these years?!"

"Leave. Leave this castle and never come back! I'm tired of this fake family interrupting me when I'm trying to help my real family."

Belos left the room and left Camila alone with the guest.

"H-he's had a very bad few days." Camila said.

"I deserve it. I just watched as he was thrown onto the streets during the Savage Ages. Then he becomes the all powerful Emperor and we all want to be back in his life. That's why Nathaniel has been trying to kill all of you. If Belos dies then he becomes Emperor."

"You can still make it up to him."

"No, I really can't. I'm a horrible sister."

"That's not true, if you can find a way to get the portal-"

"Well, I can't. Not anymore. My portal was destroyed years ago."

She left and Camila went to go find Alexander.

Meanwhile in the, Human Realm, Luz and Heather were arm wrestling.

"Give it up, Belos. I am the school's best wrestler." Heather said.

"Well, I am a former MVP athlete." Luz said.

Luz started getting the upper hand and forced Heather's hand to the ground.

"Not bad, Luz." Heather said rubbing her hand.

Luz won't lie, she cheated. She had a few power glyphs on hand and used one of them.

"So, former athlete. What happened?"

"I got injured. Parents didn't want me playing anymore."

"Yeah, my parents didn't want me wrestling anymore after I got a broken arm. I managed to convince them that I would be fine."

"What's taking Tracey and Emelina so long?" Luz asked.

"I don't know. If they take any longer, we're going to be late for the movie."

"I'll go see what's taking so long." Luz said, walking up the stairs.

Luz felt lucky that she had a great family and friends in the Human Realm. Back in the Boiling Isles, R.J was entering her house. Visiting Alex went about as well as she expected. The past few days have been confusing, Nathaniel coming back, her niece stuck in the Human Realm, Alex freaking out. This is a very confusing time. Suddenly, a knife was placed against her throat.

"I thought, the best assassin would be harder to sneak up on."

"What do you want Nathaniel." R.J said.

"Don't be like that Rachael. You seem to have no love for your older brother."

"You faked your death, tried to kill Alex and his family, and spent the past fourteen years trying to kill our niece. I think it's clear as to why I don't have any love for you."

"Well, you may not like me, but the knife says you'll help me." Nathaniel said, pressing the knife against her neck enough to cause a small thing of blood, "Or else, there will be a real death in the family."
