Nikola glared up at Sirene, "Thanks for the help." his sarcasm was obvious.

"Who is he?" Sirene questioned. "He's Lord Valescon, a man who doesn't seem to understand the word compassion." said Nikola as he packed his belongings, "His hobbies are capturing Unicorns." the words shot through Sirene's heart, "He hunts Unicorns?" "Well didn't I just say that? If you ask me, I'd say that's a petty sport. There's better things to do anyway, like racket ball! Or something!"

Nikola's voice became dimmed out from Sirene's own thoughts, 'Who would hunt down Unicorns? I thought that was all over...' her expression became disconsolate. Nikola noticed her desolate disposition. "Okay, you can get off my horse now." he said.

Sirene jumped off, her senses on both legs began to progressively function again. Although, she was a still a bit clumsy. Nikola straddled himself on the horse. They both shared a moment of silence, fixating on eachother. Nikola became irritated with this,

"Well? What are you waiting for? Go back to where ever you were from!" he said.

"I dont know where I am. I um... live somewhere far away from here."

"Yeah I can see that, Albino." Nikola chortled.

"Argh, can you stop saying that."

Nikola noticed the mark on her forehead, "Where's that from?"

"Where's what from?"

"The mark on your forehead, stupid."

"Oh... I don't know...' Sirene's expression became saddened again. Her illuminating hair blew across her face.

'Strange girl...' Nikola thought to himself.

Sirene looked up at him, "I don't know where I am, really... I don't know the purpose to why I awoke here. I am..." Sirene held back her words, petrified to tell Nikola that she was a Unicorn. She feared he would obliterate her the same way the monster did to her mother, "I'm lost, can you help me?" she altered the subject.

Nikola studied her face, contemplating this moment, "Yeah. Hop on."

Nikola flung her up on the horse. Sirene adjusted herself on the saddle when Nikola interrupted, "Wait, did a girl just kick my ass?" his ego bruised again from reminiscing.

Sirene smiled as she wrapped her arms around Nikola to insure safety. Nikola ignored this as they rode off towards Barusa Village.
