Infinity Magic

Chapter 40 The Siren Den

    As soon as everyone arrives infront of the cave, Wolfe brought the twins from its back. "Let's wake them up,"Wolfe said. "I will do it," Cheyenne said. Wolfe and Cheyenne wake the Twins upwhile Amy feels terrible fear inside. Could it be that it's because she is afraidof the queen? "Is this the siren's den?" Zeke asked. "Yup, thisis their sea cave," Alex said. Before they could continue, Silver warnedthem. "Be careful, they aren't extremely fond of human after the Farythwar. There's a chance that they might attack us," Silver warned."Don't worry, we'll be fine," Platinum assured. Amy gulps in fear andFyre could see her trembling a bit. Fyre puts his hand on her shoulder and shefeels better when she notice that she is not alone. "I hope so," Neil said witha doubtful tone. Entering the cave, the sirens glare at them with unpleasanteyes. "They are all females, unlike the three of you, Neil," Amywhispered. "Well, sirens are usually females but it is rare to see malesirens like us," Neil whispered to her ear. "Their glare scares me,"Len said, hiding behind Xansel. "I'm scared of getting eaten by them," Husky whispered. "Keepwalking," Alex said. They keep walking to meet Siria the queen. Siria hasbig frills around her face and tentacles hair. Her sapphire scaly skin glowsunder the light from the cave hole alongside her silver tiara. They see Siriasitting on her throne with her violet eyes glaring at them furiously. She slitherscloser toward Amy. "Hmph....I sense that you need something from us. I seethat you brought a human here! To be honest, I don't like seeing a human in ourlair for what they did to us," Siria hissed at Amy's face furiously andreturned to her throne. "Now, what do you want from us, human?" Siriasat on her throne with a snarl. "We need your permission to get to theCalamite Mountain through your den, Your Majesty," Neil said."Please, my Queen," Alex begged. "Is that true? Allow me to seeif you are not our enemy. Especially you, human," Siria jumped from thethrone. "Sigh, I knew this would happen," Amy said with a sigh. Amy stepsforward and Siria smells a scent similar to her kind. "Your scent smellslike our kind. Tell me, your mother is a siren?" Siria asked. "Yes,her name is Lila," Amy answered. "Lila? That traitor adopted you!? Iwon't show mercy to you!" Siria screeched. Siria draws her scimitars onher four hands as threat. "Why do you hate her so much?" Amy steppedaway a bit. "Why? She broke our rules! Her heart has gone soft ever sinceshe saw human children upon leaving the den. Our rule is "never choose humanside"!" Siria shouted angrily. Amy draws her rapier. Her rapier splitsinto throwing knifes. As Siria slithers closer, Amy throws a knife on Siria's tail.Siria stumbles to the ground painfully and she summons an acid from herscimitar. Amy's throwing knifes change into multiple blades. Amy points herblade on her face by the time Siria looked up. "Are we done?" Fyreasked through Amy, his blue eyes glowed. "Yes, we're done," Siriasaid, put her blades down. Amy's blade changes back into rapier and she puts iton her side. "I'm giving you my permission but proof it to me that as aSiren, your mother will do anything to keep you safe," Siria said."Alright, we had a deal," Amy said. "Then we will take ourleave, my queen," Silver said. Everyone leave and Siria thinks deeply."Maybe I shouldn't have said that to her earlier," Siria thought
