The sound of clashing metal could be heared coming from the training grounds. It was not a rare sound, but who was fighting was surprising. I had managed to convince Sin to have a full on sword match. I wanted to see if the student passed the teacher, cause I taught him how to fight originally.

I charged at Sin, my swords at my sides. He was preparing for full frontal attack, by I jumped d and did a back flip over him, quickly kicking him in the back on the way down. I spun around, ready to get the winning blow, but instead my swords got stopped by his. We both smirked at each other, both too stubborn to back down.

"Ads!" a sudden voice inturupted our fight. We both put down our weapons and turned to see Mei running at me, with a guard standing by the door, obviously have escorted her here. "There's some people at the orphanage for you..." she said, instantly sounding like she was regretting what he was saying.

"Who?" I asked, putting my swords back in their sheath.

"Maranda and Joseph," she whimpered. My mood instantly changed. I bit my tongue in irritation. I thought I got rid of them, and they would never need to bother with them again.

I let out an irritated groan. "I need to go," I reluctantly told Sin. I could have probably stayed there and not interact with the two, but that wasn't mature of me to do.

"Come back when you're done," he offered, giving me a kiss on the forehead. I gave him a forced smile and left with Mei. She knew better to talk to me with the dark aura radiating off of me. I stormed to the orphanage, losing Mei on the way.

The two of them were standing outside of the orphanage, looking as pathetic and cripple as ever. Both their hair was gray now, abd wrinkles were showing up on their face. "There's our little girl," Maranda cheered and came up and gave me a hug. I got stiff under her touch.

"Still growing I see," Joseph joked. I just glared at the two. The abandoned me when I was five, yet when we met again in Reim, with me being a successful business woman, they clung to me as if they deserved to.

"What do you want?" I hissed, crossing my arms in front of my chest, "I've repaid you for taking me in, you have no business left with me." I bought them a house and gave them a small fortune, more than enough payment.

"Can't we come see our daughter," she said, fake tears pooling in her eyes.

"You don't have one," I hissed at them, "And the last three times you've come to me you've wanted money. But I've told you, I don't have any! I take what I need to survive and give the rest to people who need it, which is not the two of you."

"Audria, that is no way to speak to your parents," the man who once taught me to hunt scolded me. I just laughed at his statement.

"That is true, but you are not them," I growled, walking past them, sending to get away before blood is spilt.

"If we didn't take you in you would have died, we saved you. You owe your life to us," Maranda hissed.

"I owed you five years, now get out of my face," I said, shutting the door in their faces. I stormed to the door of my office, unlocking it with my charm, and entering into the AR HQ.

I didn't want to be bothered and stormed out into to rift, letting the darkness surround me as someone called my name from the structure. Once I had enough of the darkness I pulled out my staff and lit up the end. I used that light to help me find my way to a place I haven't been in a while.

I put out the light as I was in some coming from the woodden cabin in the middle of the rift. I knocked on the door, knowing my mentor didn't know I was coming. The door opened to reveal a fanalis I should have known was there. "Audria?" she asked in her way of astonishment.

"Hey Morgiana," I greated her, "Is Yunan there?"

"Audria!" the magi screamed, pushing out to give me a quick hug. "I thought you forgot about me."

"Me forget about the weirdo who taught magic, never," I laughed, returning the hug.

"You're cheeks are red, you were angry. What got you angry?" he asked getting his protective father vibe he sometimes gets around me.

"Maranda and Joseph," I sighed, "I just need thwm to die already."

"Those are you're adoptive parents right?" Yunan questioned, going through lol his memories of our once weekly tea parties. I nodded in annoyance. "Just ignore them, they'll go away."

"How do you two know each other?" Morg asked, finally getting around to getting into the conversation.

"She's my student," Yunan declared, like it was something to be proud of.

"He taught me magic," I shrugged like it was nothing.

"So are you a magi too?" the young girl asked, probably piecing together some things she knows to make assumptions.

"Sorta," I shrugged, "But for simplicity I am. I just have a different goal than rest of the magis." We all walked inside, where Yunan started making tea. "Don't burn yourself," I warned him right before he yelped in pain.

"Weren't you wearing that clothing last time I saw you?" Yunan asked, "You used to change outfits every day, now you haven't changed in over three years."

"It's a waste of money to have so many clothes, so I just stick with this," I shrugged, helping him with tea.

"I only have this," Morg added, not wanting to be left out.

"And through all the years I've known you, I've only ever seen you here that green ensemble," I pointed out.
