Lamia paces in front of the Prince who is currently tied to a tree because he underestimated a girl smaller then him. ''Alright all I have to do is stab him and the King will be distraught which gives my parents revenge. It'll be fine.'' She tells herself. Harmonia just stares at her like she's crazy. ''So are you going to kill me or not like?'' He asks and Lamia's head shoots up to look at him. ''What?'' she asked. ''Are you going to kill me or not I don't got all day.'' He remarked and Lamia looked at him weirdly. ''You know for my own health I should leave you here to die. You know what I will. Bye now.'' She said beginning to walk away from him. ''Wait no come back don't leave me alone.'' He cried out. He kept shouting for her to come back and she stopped at the treeline but he kept complaining.
She heard something in the distance but she couldn't sure with all the screaming. ''Shut up.'' She said and he stopped and looked at her. Next thing the noise was getting closer and closer until a wolf jumped out of the treeline and tackled Lamia sending her rolling. ''Hades.'' Harmonia cheered. Lamia groaned as she propped herself up on her elbows before the wolf charged at her again. Before the Prince could say anything Hades had bit down on her leg. ''Hades no bad dog come here.'' The prince yelled and the wolf ran to him and bit through his restraints. He stood and quickly rushed over to her where she was leaning against the tree trying to wrap her leg with her cloak. ''Here let me help.'' He offered but was pushed away by her as she glared at him and finished wrapping up her own leg. She may have tried to kill him but she was till hurt because of his wolf.
She tried to stand and Harmonia and Hades just watched her. She stood using the tree for support and started to hobble back through the forest away from the two idiots. ''Hey wait up.'' Harmonia said and began to follow her, Hades not far behind. ''Leave me alone.'' She said through gritted teeth. Harmonia sighed and quickly picked her up and started to carry her through the forest. ''Put me down idiot I can get home myself I don't need you and your stupid mutt to help me.'' She argued but Harmonia just carried her.
''Hah you don't even know what village I live in.'' She smiled smugly. Harmonia stopped in his tracks. She was right he doesn't know where she lives. ''I'll just have to bring you back to the castle then.'' He said and began walking towards the castle. ''Oh no.no no no no you can't bring me there they'll kill me.'' She panicked and finally managed to roll out of his arms. ''Why would we kill you?'' He asked confused and she smiled nervously. ''Oh well you know like a commoner such as myself doesn't belong in a castle so it's fine I'll just head home myself. Bye for now Harry.'' She said before attempting to run towards her aunts. ''Huh Harry. I like it.'' He smiled while Hades nudged his leg. ''Oh shut up you.''
Lamia pushed the backdoor opened and literally fell in the door where her aunt aught her. ''Lamia. What happened?'' Her asked worried. ''I couldn't do it Auntie I couldn't kill him. I couldn't avenge them.'' She cried for her parents and for the pain and for being weak that she couldn't kill the one thing she thought would bring her parents justice. ''Oh sweetie it's ok. Come here let's fix up that leg of yours.'' As her aunt fixed up her leg with stitches and bandages she thought about the day's events. She would never be able to face that man again. No matter how much she wanted to. It was for his own sake. And for hers.
