  After this questiomosphere in the room became tehe silence ierg , even the fall of a pin would sound like the bang of a gunshot . Sienna's face darkened instantly and after l her head , a shadow covered the upper part of her face . Only a pair of her amber cat eyes shined in the darkness . Even if the guards standing a few steps behihrone could not see the expression on Sienna's face . Still , From the very atmosphere in the room , they wisely decided to give up their curiosity .

  Unfortunately, the man who asked the question could not enjoy the opportunity to be ignorant . With his forehead covered with sweat, he lowered his head uo look Sienna in the eye. heless, he felt her gaze on him and his faunus self-preservation instinct began to work , as shown by his dog tail , which hid between his legs .

  Even if he khat Sienna would not kill him or punish him for that question , the very feeling of her gaze , the very realization that he had destroyed her good mood after she was already so happy was enough to make him feel bad . Just when he was about to open his mouth , probably with the iion of apologizing or defending his question , Sienna finally answered .

  Sienna : " What kind of question is that ? We will proceed as we always do . First we will find out the reasons for this situation and then , if we firm that she has betrayed or deserted without reason , we will prosecute her and apply the punishment she deserves . If Lappnd escaped fully knowingly and without the intervention of external forces , then she will face death . "

  Said Sienna in a firm and resolute voice . At that moment she sounded like a true leader , but her eyes shining in the shadows did not express firmness , rather a mixture of anger and annoyance was visible there . In the end, however, it was hard to say whether she really thought what she said, or whether she was just saying what others wao hear . It was clear from her firm and dispassionate voice that this would happen . But people who knew Sienna's heart khat she would do anything to obstruct the possible execution of Lappnd .

  Ultimately, however, what Sienna will do will only bee clear after the iigation into the matter . As for the meaningfulness of the iigation it matters when there are situations that justify the behavior iion. Running away does not quite mean treason . All the more to run away not from the mission but from time off and not to appear for a new mission may be to hide from an unspecified threat , which does not so much as threaten the individual , but threateire anization .

  Such situations are rare and it has only happened a few times . The first time it happened was when one of the members w in Ats began to be spied on by SD order not to give away the location of the hideout or the identities of other members , he did not tact or visit the White Faings which led to an immediate accusation of treason . Of course, it was only after the death of this member that the truth was learned, but it was already too te and the White Fang thus lost an important member . In addition, it also affected the morale of the people who knew about it.

  That's why from that moment on such cases are iigated before a verdict is passed, even more so in the case of more important members. And everyone in the room k . Iigation is not mandatory but is o prevent unnecessary losses and mistakes . Besides with Lappal state , she was sidered unfit for duty . If necessary , Sienna could even sider Lappnd's case as a morbid inability to tinue serving uhe White Fang . heless , it o be iigated , they o know what she did and with whom to be sure that there was ion and treason .

  If it is firmed that Lappnd unsably betrayed the secrets of the anization or colborated with enemy forces , Lappnd will be killed . But if nothing of this sort was found , and Lappnd herself did not hide because of an unknown threat , Sienna will quietly be able to py the card of Lappnd's insanity. However, if Lappnd was forced into hiding by a third force, Lappnd will most likely be able to return to service after dealing with this force . Thus Sienna's answer was the most ral and truthful iuation.

  Sienna : " That's all for today right ? "

  Asks Sienna to which the still nervous man nods to firm . Sienna herself did not even look at his firmation as she had already got up from her seat to move towards the exit. Walking past him Sienna did not even look at him , but walking right past him she said a few more words .

  Sienna : " Find out why such important information came to me only now . "

  After these st words Sienna together with her guards left the throne room , leaving the poor man with the scroll in his hand aloh his thoughts and the ask . While the man was thinking about his decisions , Sienna after walking through several corridors whose style was identical to the throne room stopped in front of a solitary door at the end of one of the corridors .

  After passing through the door and leaving her guards oher side , Sienna found herself in the fort of her room . Her room, despite its size and furniture worthy of a white Fang leader, was in plete disarray and chaos . The state of her room resembled more the room of a teehan that of an adult woman of such a serious positioy liquor bottles surrouhe unmade double bed . On the floor from time to time y some papers or clothes.

  Closets and chests of drawers that should hold things in them were in several pces open, which showed that they were quite empty, or the things id in them were random things, scattered in chaos. The books lying by the bed or on the dresser were not tactical or political books, but romances with sharp and mature themes. The book that stood out from between the clutter was the " Ninjas of love " , lying directly on one of the pillows .

  The one p the room on which there artial liness and order was the desk . Lying on it were several papers and maps . In addition to this and a pair of suggestive ben's panties, in the er of the desk were two frames with photos. The first one showed the younger Sienna and her sister . The sed showed a disgruntled, eleven-year-old Lappnd , hugged by a smiling Sienna .

  Looking at the pictures , Sienna silently approached the desk . Feeling the underside of the desk with her hand, Sienna pressed a button that made a hidden drawer slide out . From this drawer , Sienna pulled out her , private , protected from eavesdropping and trag scroll . However, when she was about to ehe tacts and es , Sienna noticed that someone had already tried to ect to her .

  Her surprise was eveer when she discovered that less thay minutes ago, the person she had just wao call called her. With a gentle raise of her eyebrows , Sienna called back the tact signed as Ms. Beldonna . The e was established immediately , however , Sienna with a smile already guessed that perhaps someone else also had information about Lappnd . After all Lappnd appeared in the Club of a former member of Ms. Beldonna team .

  Sienna : " I see that information about Lappnd has reached you too . Or perhaps you are calling about another matter ? "

  Said Sienna with a smile while sitting down on her desk . All her earlier anger disappeared or was well hidden uhis happy news .

  Kali : " Fortunately yes , but unfortunately I don't call because of it . I'm calling to expin why Lappnd disappeared . "

  Listening to Kali's voice , Sienna noticed that the other party did not even try to hide the ess and flustration in her words . It was totally unlike Kali , and Sienna se . Just as , she sehe allusion and message of those words .

  Sienna : " Are you suggesting that I or someone in the ranks of the white Fang is responsible for this ? "

  Asked a disgruntled Sienna trying to crify the situation first before lettiemper act . After all , these accusations were serious . However, the one who tells her this is Ms. Kali .

  Kali: " I know that you have nothing to do with this . However, as for the involvement of some people from the white fang in this I am sure . "

  These words were followed by a short circuit in Sienna's brain . However, Kali did not stop and tinued .

  Kali : " Along with the information about Lappnd , I have also received a lot of information about the very situation in which Lappnd disappeared . She was captured aained by a troop of white Fang led by one of your leaders . They almost killed her during her capture . "

  Kali : " I don't know what they did with her after capturing her. I also have no idea why they did it . However, I heard that in the process of catg her they didn't spare her unnecessary violence , so they probably weren't er catg her . And I'm rather sure of it after hearing what ditions they kept her in , and what dition she was found in . "

  With every word from Kali , Sienna's body heated up more and more . Even though her mind is empty , her heart eeding up and the rage was boiling inside .

  Kali : " I have testimony from one of the people involved in all this . Now I just o see some things with my own eyes and firm hoeople were involved ."

  After these words, Sienna's brai bato a . After getting down from the table , she started pag around the room with the scroll by her ear . Her face did not betray vi , but it was hard not to believe Kali . No , Sienna believed Kali . It was more about Sienna not wanting to believe that something like that happened behind her back .

  Sienna : " You tell me , that it happened behind my back ? "

  Sieena asked calmly, but it is hard to tell from the tone of her void the expression on her face what she really felt. However, she was certainly not happy with what she heard . Sienna khat it was not impossible , but she knew how difficult it would be to hide this kind of thing behind her back , unless a few high-ranking people were involved in this . If Kali is telling the truth , then several important people in her ranks must have been responsible , and this is quite a problem because what to do in this situation ?

  Kali : " You are not able to trol the as of every member roup . I uand this , I myself in the past helped Ghira to lead people and I still help him as a wife . I know how much you believe and trust all your people . However , don't fet what our world ay is . "

  Said Kali iypical motherly way . Unfortuhis did not calm Sienna , rather the effect was the opposite . It was no longer about betrayal itself or ag without orders , now it was about hurting her Lappdumb , she os the only reason why she choose to lead the white fang . And now someone from the anization , which she runs for Lappnd , has hurt Lappnd. To say that she was close to exploding was like saying nothing , Sienna's rage boiled inside , held only by rationality . Even the knowledge that Lappnd would avoid the fate of the traitor could not silehe rage .

  Sienna : " Whie is it ! Tell me who have the ce ? "

  Shouted Sienna hitting her free , open hand on her desk . The veins on her forehead pulsed , and her skin , despite her dark plexion , turned red with anger . With eyes bloodshot with anger , Sienna ched her teeth , waiting for an answer .

  Khali : " Surely one branch leader is involved . But I myself suspect that one person of high position was not able to keep things secret , even more so looking at the total outline of the situation . That's why I have two more suspects , both are in the position of leader of the brand I have fidehat they could hide Lappnd . I want to meet with you to be able to discuss how to address this situation . Because it is delicate and the wrong approach be dangerous for us . "

  Said Kali when grunts and growls were heard from her side . Sienna had already guessed that it must have been Ghira . However, she did not care what was happening oher side , at that moment Sienna stood thoughtfully . She did not deny what Kali had told her, because she believed that Kali would not lie to her about su important matter. Besides , she heard fury in Kali's voice , something that ot be faked , all the more so with Kali calm character .

  Sienna : " In four ........ No , in three hours and forty minutes I will be in Menagerie . "

  After these words , Sienna hung up . Holding the scroll in her hand , Sienna walked out of the room startling her guards who stood with their ears pressed against the wall . If looks could kill then the white fang would have already eliminated all its enemies . The look that Sienna preseuards made them freeze in pce . Although her face was an oasis of ess, her eyes were full of messages.

  Sienna : " Prepare Bullhead , I'm supposed to be at the Menagerie in three hours . "

  Said Sienna heading towards the base exit . Unfortunately one of the guards could not keep his thoughts in his head .

  Guard : " But even with the fastest Bullhead , without any obstacles and with perfect weather it will take five hours of flight . "

  It was just a whisper , but Sienna heard it and stopped . She did not even have time to turn her head , because the eloquent guard stood at attention of his own accord .

  Guard : " I will prepare everything for a three-hour flight " .

  Said the guard loudly , then he quickly turned around and walked away to prepare everything , most likely saving his skin . Hearing nothing more , Sienna moved on . Her other three guards , followed her like a dug following ther mother . Or rather , little kittens trying to follow the tiger .
