If there had ever been a moment of power in Luna's life it had been when she was told Cindilu was a pirate. The anger that had appeared in her heart had been so overwhelming that without a second thought she had pushed the younger girl back, making her trip, but Cindilu evaded the water looking bored at Luna.
"Someone hates pirates." – She gave her a smug smile, – "or is it just an act?"
"You have Alexis to thank for that," – Luna said with as much coldness as she could. -"Where's my brother?" – Luna shouted at Cindilu, who kept her distance wisely.
"Ben is your brother?" – Cindilu asked surprised, apparently she did not know that information.
"Why do you call him Alexis?" – Luna jumped, she had almost forgotten about the siren near them. She looked interested in the conversation, but something about her didn't go well with Luna at all. Luna backed away from her even more.
"So it was his idea to have me killed?"– Luna asked.
"Don't say that about Alexander, he had nothing to do with what happened to you, everyone knows never to go in the mermaid lagoon."
"I'm not everyone! I'm Luna and I'm not from this world!
"Temper, temper."
"Don't test me. My patience grows thin with all of you."
"Fighting with Cindy won't help you, she is way too lazy to even care about that," – the siren said smiling at Luna. – "Now calm down and listen. Cindy is a pirate and yes you should be careful, but she is not the enemy. Also, she is only here because she was to meet with Peter." – The siren moved her tail as she talked her deep, cat-like eyes on Luna. – "As for me, you owe me a thank you."
"And why would I owe you anything?" – The siren remained quiet, but it was obvious her temper had sparked at Luna's response. Luna took a moment to think things calmly over what had happened in the lake and recalled someone had helped her get back to the surface, as she stared at the blue haired woman she understood her words. – "You saved me? Why?"
"Well, aren't you the most thankful thing in the world," – she looked angry. – "You are beneath me, human, know your place. The only reason I saved you was because Peter called me and asked me to get you out."
Luna had trouble believing Peter ever asked for anything in his life, he looked like the type of person who would get what he wanted and nothing less of it. It actually surprised her that he would trust a siren, the way Alexis had described them seemed like they were evil to the core.
"And you just followed his request?" – Luna waited for her to answer, but Cindilu was the one who did it first.
"Coraline is one of the few sirens to still welcome Peter to the lagoon; they have been friends for years." – She noticed Luna's confusion and added, – "that's her name."
"Shut up Cindy it's not important, either way I only came here to give you something, I supposed you dropped it in the water?" – Coraline showed her the hand clock Luna had picked up in the forest. She gasped as she had totally forgotten about did notice Luna had moved a little, but remained was still afraid of her, it made her smile. She threw it to Luna who caught it looking at it as if she could not believe Coraline had done it. – "It's not yours, be careful if its owner finds you with it," – she stated as she glared at Luna and not before smiling at her in an evil way did she went into the cold water.
"Why she just leave?" – Luna tried to think the sirens' words over, but didn't understand them.
"Coral can't stay out of the water for too long, the temperature will not allow it."– Cindy turned to her seen the hand clock curiously, – "can I see it?"
"No and I advise you to go away before the boys see you here, pirate."
"My name is Cindilu, not pirate and I'm not afraid of the lost boys, they can't harm me." – She stood proud as she spoke.
"Well, I will if you don't tell me where your damn captain is keeping Benedict!"
"Would you like to see him?" – She asked making Luna flinch.
"So you can trap me and kill Peter and the others? No thank you, I'm not that stupid."
"I haven't mentioned anything about killing anyone Luna. Alexander is not after Peter's life."
"What is he after?" – Luna's posture was giving Cindy a feeling that she was going to the end the argument, – "because it's hard to tell if he's after my life, Peter's or my brother's."
"I was supposed to meet with Peter but I can do with a change of plans."– Cindy said, thoughtful.
"Meaning?"
"You follow me to see Alexander." – Cindy waited for Luna to respond, but she looked a bit confused.
"Where is he, outside the cave?"
"You expect him to just openly walk in here? He doesn't even know Peter hides here."
"Everybody else seems to know, aren't you on Alexis's team?"
"I'm a messenger and this location I swore on my life never to say, I'm loyal to Alexander do not doubt that, but this little secret is something out of honor." – Cindy walked around Luna.
"Can I trust I will return alive from this visit?" – Luna questioned as she thought of what awaited her.
"First rule is you never trust a pirate, but it does not imply you will be killed or anything, just be mindful of what you speak about and with whom."
"Take me to Alexis." – Luna felt her heart give a warning to the words she spoke more so without her telling Peter about it.– "I wish to speak with him."
"I shall take you to Alexander's ship, The Fallen" – Cindy's smile gave Luna the shills as she turned to go out waiting for Luna to follow.
Neither was she aware of the siren hidden behind one of the caves' rocks, her eyes focused on the trouble that walked away as she lowered herself to the dark waters in search for aid.
