Enemy befriended

She was sitting on the bed. She was alone, alone until company came to wish her well into the after life. Her heart was a gentle thrumming. She wasn't scared, she didn't quite understand it, only that she wasn't scared. It was as if she knew she wasn't going to die. As if a simple girl named Kyra could have predicted the boy who came through those tent doors. As if she could have known that it would be the same one she had met before. An enemy who would be her only friend.

"You have to get out of here." He whispered "It's time they see you with their own eyes." Kyra didn't even question following him as he led her out of the tent and through a hidden trail. She didn't know who to trust anymore. Her own people who wanted to kill her, or her sworn enemy who was trying to save her? Everything seemed wrong and different, and in confusion Kyra found herself following soundlessly over the wall.
