"Who are you ?" The woman asked a wide mouthed me .
"Uh - Uh - I- I'm Rene Roosevelt I'm a Berthim. Please don-" I couldn't finish my sentence because Nath was standing in front of me , as if to protect me from the woman .
She giggled . I couldn't make it out if it was friendly giggle or an evil one . "And I'm Leah . I'm a siren . I can't hurt you even if I wanted to because you haven't chosen the wrong path yet . Good for you !" She said with a cheerful smile on her face . I tried smiling back to her . Nath still had his hands on mine , keeping me from approaching her .
"Well then , let's get outta this place . We need to share so many stories with each other to be able to think alike . "
She agreed with me and we headed out . I took one last look into the room she was in a moment before and saw both the skins of the security guards lying like goo on the floor . The room had handcuffs on , and a tape recorder . Why a tape recorder ? I was confused but just in case it was important , I took the tape recorder with me after stopping the recording .
"Oh ! I almost forgot to take the recorder with me ! Thank you ! It would've been used for bad reasons of you hadn't taken it . " I asked her , "Why?"
She replied to me saying , "It recorded my most powerful song that I could sing . If they play the recording with the song and think of bringing something back to life , they're gonna be able to do it , even though one of them would die ."
One of them ? "So Nate and Fredrick ARE working together ?" I asked her .
She shook her head as a no and replied to me while we entered the black car that Fredrick's security had bought for us to be taken away , "No , they're not working together anymore . I was talking about Fredrick and Jessie . "
It only made sense that Jessie was involved inn this too . It must've been hard on Leah to stay without food and water , especially since she was a siren . She needed to consume SOME evil kind once in a while to stay alive ! right ?
I told Leah about how we ended up there , straight from how I found out about Kate since I didn't have to explain to her about the existence of supernatural creatures . Leah agreed to take us to Fredrick's house and see what he had to tell us . Then she started delivering her own story .
She was the only living Siren she knew , sadly . She had accidentally watched Nate turn into a human from a Morkoth and approached him . Big mistake . She ended up being locked up . Unfortunately , Nate already knew all about Sirens and he taped her face up to keep her from singing , cuffed her to the wall , and gave food only once a month so that she wouldn't decease completely . Fredrick found out about her when Nate invited him over and freed her . She thought that he was good guy but , another mistake . He DID treat her better than Nate but she needed to be free . She still had no idea why she was locked up like that just because she was a Siren .
We reached Fredrick's house . We didn't look suspicious at all because the car was also the planned car . Only the security guards were missing , but Fredrick wouldn't be able to see that because the windows had black tinted sheets on . Leah was driving and she said that she would wait for us in the car . It was decided by us that if we take more than 6 hours , she would interfere . Leah was simply 27 years old and it definitely felt like having a big sister , something I had craved for since I was little , the word 'caring' not being in the vocabulary of Bob and Haley .
Nath and I got out of the car and entered the house . We expected him to be in the same room we had seen him before when we came . The way was still in our memories because we had talked about it a lot during our 4 day starvation . We were hungry again but it wasn't as bad as being hungry for 4 days !
We entered the room and was not at all surprised to see Fredrick on his phone . "Where are the body guards ?"
I was about to reply but Nath beat me to it this time , "They didn't seem interested in bringing us here at all . They left as soon as we entered the house . "
Fredrick wrinkled his face a bit before saying , "Then why do I see the car still in front of my gate ?"
I didn't know what explanation he had for me to testify against my own kind , that too in front of people thinking realistically . Who would believe the existence of supernatural beings ? Now that I was free and better , I could make a deal .
I kept my right hand on the table and stood up , leaning on my hand . "You better give me an answer to the question I asked before being abducted , or your never going to see your precious siren again ." The look of shock and fear on his face was everything I needed to feel the feel of revenge .
"Don't you dare , Rene ! You don't know what she can do to humans !" He said , trying to calm himself down . He thought that he was on the winning side . "Oh no , you got it all wrong , I saw her beautify herself with those arrogant security guards you sent for us . I think I've seen what I needed to see . "
