CHAPTER 22.
"Your Majesty, it has been more than five months since King Miro disappeared ..." Julius spoke, but was interrupted again by the queen.
"We can't lose hope. Not yet.''
'' But majesty ... ''
'' I said no, Julius. '' Leandra stood up. "We're going to keep looking for Miro, I know he's around." She looked at the window. '' I just know. ''
"Leandra, it's been five months!" He exclaimed. ''I do not think that...''
''But I think. And the people still have hope. That's what matters.''
Adora was surprised by her grandmother's determination and then saw the scene change once more. She was no longer in the throne room, but was in Ashley's house.
Miro was coming back with wood and entered the house.
'' He stayed here? '' Adora raised her eyebrow and followed his grandfather inside.
"I came back!" He exclaimed as he closed the door.
"I see." Ashley commented as she stepped out of the small kitchen with a towel in her hand.
The two were silent for a while, both distracted their minds with distinct things, but as soon as they sat down to dinner Miro decided to speak.
"Look, I've been thinking." He started. '' For the past few months I've had no clue about who I am and I do not think I'm going to have it so soon. '' Looking into her eyes, he continued to speak. '' I have no idea who I was before, but I can not stop living because of it. ''
'' He will not do that, '' Adora exclaimed intrigued.
'' Oh Max. '' Max was the temporary name of Miro, since he did not remember who he was and she had no idea. Ashley hugged him wordlessly, after all she loved him and from what Adora could see, he loved her too. Maybe as much as he loved Leandra.
'' I do not believe it! '' Adora exclaimed and then woke up.

Adora opened her eyes and sat down. No wonder she was tired, her powers leaving her like this every time she had these visions. Looking at the clock by the bed, she saw that it was still two in the morning and decided to go back to sleep, when she turned around she hugged her husband while he did the same with her.
"Are you okay?" He whispered.
''I am. Let's go back to sleep, "she whispered back.
The next time Adora opened her eyes, it was daylight and she found Hawk staring at her.
"Good morning," he said with a smile.
'' Hi. '' She yawned and stretched. ''What time is it?''
'' Seven o'clock, '' he replied and stared at her. It was not necessary to be a telepath to know that Hawk wanted to ask something and he was waiting for her to wake up completely so he could ask the question.
The princess raised a curious eyebrow. '' What are you trying to ask me? ''
'' What's the real reason you did not want to go to the doctor yesterday? ''
Adora could not hide the smile on her face as she sat down.
"Well." She bit her lip. '' I was hoping I could surprise you, but I know you will not let me get up until I respond. ''
'' You know me. '' He flashed a smile. ''So? What surprise did you expect to do?''
After a few seconds of silence, she whispered.
''I'm Pregnant!''

'' They managed to get her! '' One of the villains exclaimed angrily.
"If I were you I would not worry about it," Susan replied.
'' Said the warrior who was defeated by Lohni. '' Another of the masked men commented.
'' Lohni was as good a captain as Adora. Both in struggle and in wisdom, '' Susan replied. '' And did not you take a beating from Adora, Catra and Evil-lyn? Adora this pregnant, Catra has softened and is with the heroes and Evil-lyn is without powers, so I ask you, how you were defeated? ''
Before he could answer, Caspian's voice was heard.
"Ah, you're fighting again! Stop it. Adora may have run away, but she will not risk fighting until that child is born. That is, we do not have to worry about the next few months. ''
'' And what will we do now? ''
"Let's continue with the plan, but with a little change. Leandra's powers will be caught last. ''
