I was frantically searching all over the place. I could find my swords. I could find my metal vessels. I could find Altezca. After all these years it's quiet without her comments in my head. Not to mention I freaking love her and don't want her to be lost from me. "I don't think it would be in here?" Son sighed as I checked under the couch in his office for the third time.

"I don't know where else to check," I yelled, getting close to crying. I had checked my room, Sin's room, the training grounds, the armory, and practically the entire castle.

Sin got up from his work, which was a plessing all its own that he was doing it. "Ady calm down," he tried soothing me, pulling me into a hug, "I'm sure it will come up, and if it doesn't I can always get you a new one." I pushed him away, looking up at him with the highest amount of repulsion.

"No," I hissed, pushing him away, "You can't just get a new one. These things have been with my my entire life. They were the swords I learned to fight with. They've comforted me when I thought I was lost. They're practically family." I turned and stormed out of his office.

Sin stood the dumbfounded. "There just swords...?" he reminded me through the confusion. I scream incoherent sound and went on with my search.

I was in the midst of searching the hallways, silently sobbing. "Audria?" a timid voice called out to me. I crawled out from behind the suit of armor I was checking. "What are you doing?" Dunya asked me, coming over and sitting next to me.

I reached up and wiped away the snot and tears gathering on my face. "Looking for sword," I informed her. She pulled her knees into her chest and looked at me with a sympathic smile.

"They must be important to you if you're this worked up about it," my friend commented. I nodded in agreement, still silently crying, not having Altezca to turn to for comfort and Sin being an inconsiderate jerk.

She waited paciently for me to explain why they were so important. "They were given to me by someone important. They are the only link I have to where I'm from. I've had them most of my life, they are what I learned swordmanship with. They are also my metal vessel. And I've had my djinn longer than I haven't, and I'm really close to them. They're like family, and it doesn't feel right not having them making snark remark in my head. And I can't sense her, and the ruhk aren't letting me know anything. I'm scared something has happened to her. "

Dunya but a soothing hand on my back and rubbed small circle, easing the tension from my tears. "I'll help you look," she offered, "They sound really important." I looked at her with hope in my eyes.

All hope died as I fell into my bed sobbing my eyes out. "They're gone," I screamed into my pillow. We had scoerred the entire palace, and probably more than once. We could find my swords anywhere. "Where was the last place you had it?" Dunya asked, sitting down on the edge of my bed.

I let out a couple sobs, evening my breath. "Maharajan a couple days ago," I wimmpered between breaths.

"Well maybe you lost it during that party," she suggested, trying to solve a problem by making a larger one. Instead of a cowering the palace, I'd nerd to search the entire island. Well I'm sure I have some more friends that are more than willing to help.

After quickly getting Mei and Kansi into it we started searching the island. We even managed to get over a few AR members Tha had the spare time to help look. The sun had began to set and we gave up looking for the day. Dunya and I had a meloncoly walk back to he palace. I didn't even notice when we split ways. I was going to tell Sin what the day in tailed, sure I was irritated with him, but he had the right to know.

Over the months I've gotten into the habit of not knocking before entering Sin's office. This would only lead to his downfall. "Ja'far, she's out scowering the island for this, what am I supposed to do?" Sin asked his adviser in a frantic voice.

"Not this," Ja'far scolded the king. What ever they were arguing about was heated, something controversial, and me. This only gave me the right of way to ease drop a bit more.

"I can't just let her go on searching everywhere for something she won't find," Sin sighed, "The most I can do is limit her search area."

Ja'far let out a disgruntled sigh, "I get it, but hiding the sheath someone just to keep her from looking for the sword itself all over the place just feels devious." That was my que to anerly barge into the office and right over to Sinbad.

I glared at him with all the anger I had been feeling towards myself the entire day over losing my swords. " You had it? "I growled at him," More specifically, you took it. You looked me in the eyes and said you didn't know where it was, when you were the one that had it. "

" Technically Yamriha had it... "Sin confessed like that would make a difference what so ever.

" Ja'far can you leave us alone? "I asked the advisor. I knew he was involved in some way but I needed to deal with the King first. The kid scurried out, fearful of what is about to happen.

I looked back at Sin, complete fear written on his face. " Give me my sword, " I commanded calmly. I outstretched my hand for him to place it into.

The calm just made him more fearful. "Ady just...."

"My sword Sinbad," I hissed, louder and firmer. I commanded the ruhk to put my Sheath in my out stretched hand. "I'm not gonna ask again. Give. Me. My. Sword."

"It's dangerous... " Sin started whatever rediculous reasoning he had. My anger had gotten to the point of me grind my jaw.

"Give me my sword!" I yelled on the top of my lungs. Emotions were getting the best of me and tears were streaming down your face. Sin scurried over to try and calm me only to be held in place by a magic barrier, which he frantically began to pound against.

I had never seen that much fear that he had on his face at that moment. "There is something wrong with them Ady, they're cursed!" he cried out to reason.

I was not listening to reason, expecially when it dose not exist. "That gives you no right to take it!" I cried out, finally figuring out where my sword would be. Walking there would be a waste of time, so I just teleported there right behind the magician. "Yamriha," I hissed her name, scaring the magician, "Where is my sword?"

Yam looked at me with fear, probably scared of all the ruhk swarming me. "I don't know what you're talking about?" she said through lying teath.

"LIES!" I cried out, "I will scour this entire room to find it, brick by brick if I must. Give. Me. My. Sword!" I cried out at the top of my lungs. I could feel my throat getting sore from all the screaming.

Yam must have been completely terrified and scurried to go get my sword. The moment it was in my sight I commanded it to be in my arms and I teleported away and into my room. I hugged to sword to my chest, balling as I curled into a ball on the floor. "I got you back," I cried to the djinn in my metal vessel.

For rest of the day there were knocks in my door, from the generals, servants, guards, even the king himself. I screamed at them all and stayed curled up on the floor. They all broke my trust today, for keeping my friend away from me. It wasn't until the point of the day where I was debating getting up from the ground and going to my bed that someone else actually got into my room.

"Ady?" Sin called out into the darkness. He was surprised to find me curled up on the floor, hair loose and going everywhere with read puffy eyes from crying all day. I glared at him from across the room, still angry for what he had done. "Ady..." he sighed, sitting down next to me. He reached out to me, only for me to slap his hand away. "I'm sorry," he finally got around to saying it.

My haze lightened a bit, I'd forgive him, but I was still angry. "I didn't know why your swords were so important to you, but Dunya told me," he explained, playing with some of my loose hair on the ground. "I didn't know. So when I thought they could bring you harm, I saw no other option than to take them away."

I was confused, why did he think they would hurt me. I sat up so we could have a normal conversation. I voiced my confusion, and an embarrassed blush appeared on his face. " During Maharajan, you ran off. We found you out in the fields, there was this entirely link woman with you, and when we approached she looked ready to attack, using your swords. We assumed the worst."

My gaze met the ground as well. "That was Altezca," I confessed, "My djinn. She's extremely protective of me." Well someone has to protect you, cause you aren't gonna do that yourself.

It was Sin's turn to be confused. "But she was pink? And human sized? And out of her metal vessel!?" I laughed at his extreme confusion.

"I'm a magician with a metal vessel, she's obviously not a normal djinn," I pointed out. He had to know that magicians can't conure dungeons. He was still a bit confused and had his head clicked to prove it. "Can't you trust me enough to have one secret?" I asked him with a pleading smile. "You can have one of your own." He gave me a smile in return, I'll take that as a yes.
