The Siren's Flute

Enemy

"Stop what you're doing, Leia."

It was none other than Damien. Thank God. I really thought I was gonna die there.

"Why are you protecting here, Damien? You know that she's an enemy!" Leia, as what Damien had called her, exclaimed.

It shocked me to hear that I was an enemy. How did I become an enemy? I'm pretty much sure that I did not do any crimes at this place. So, why am I an enemy?

I looked at Damien's direction and gave him an questioning eye. But, he did not gave me an answer neither Leia. He only sighed and then went to Leia's spot.

"She's not an enemy. I assure you. I'll explain it to you later." He told her. But, Leia did not accept it. She still giving me that aggression. "How can she not be an enemy? You know that her family did to us!" she insisted.

Damien took a hold of her shoulders and said, "Just let her go for now. Trust me."

It took him a few minutes to convince Leia from not hurting me. I am rely confused as to why she's acting like this but, for now safety is first.

They finally let me go. I immediately stretched my body to relieve the aches. Leia gave me a glare before exiting the room together with the Triton guards.

"Thanks." I said. Damien only smiled at me before saying, "Let's go."

"We will have to postpone the tour. You might encounter other dangerous situations because of your disobedience." he said. I know that he's clearly making fun of me but, I let him go just this one time since he helped me awhile ago.

We continued walking to I-don't-know-where when I remembered what Leia said awhile back. "Hey." I called his attention. "What does she mean by enemy?" I asked.

Damien halted. Maybe the question took him by surprise. "Don't mind it. She's just worried because you have a different scale color than ours."

"Oh." I simply replied. It doesn't sound convincing to me but, I'll just buy it for now. Maybe he has a good reason why he's not completely telling me the truth.
