The Chosen

Seven's Point of View.

My time was spent thinking about the people's attitude towards me this morning. None approached me throughout the day. Which favored me dahil ayoko muna ng sagabal. Though,kahit na wala na sanang kakaibigan sa akin basta ipakita nilang kahit papaano ay nararapat ako dito. Ang awkward kaya na maglakad habang tinitingnan ka ng mga tao na parang naglalakad na basura. Do you get what I mean?

"Our abilities are classified into categories with classifications under. The lowest ability category is the Bisume. Here belongs the people who possessed just special abilities. Let's say,enhanced senses. It may be eyesight,hearing,touch,smell or even taste."

Nabalik ako sa diwa nang magsimulang magdiscuss ang huling guro namin para sa unang araw. I am energized by the thought of having this ambiance. Kahit papaano ay nabawasan ang stress na nararamdaman ko sa pakikisalamuha sa mga tao dito.

"It might belong to the lowest category but these abilities can be strenghten through proper trainings. Usage of enhanced eyesight can be extended towards the level beyond a normal enhanced eyesight can do. Let's say,instead of the distance your eyesight can reach,you also can be capable of seeing through a person's body. Know their vital organs and find their weaknesses to defeat them easily."the teacher continued to discuss. Attentive akong nakinig sa discussion. Ang alam ko lang,may iba't ibang uri ng kapangyarihan. But I never thought that it's classified. Marami pa talaga akong hindi alam.

"Excuse me,Ma'am?"

Natigil sa pagdidiscuss ang guro namin nang biglang nagtaas ng kamay ang kaklase kong si Reign. The one who insulted me earlier? Kita ko pa kung paano n'ya ako tapunan ng tingin bago s'ya humarap sa guro namin.

"Does that category of ability can get to level the ones in the higher rank? I mean,you can be a Bisume but still can be lined with the S ranks." she asked.

Bahagyang natigilan at napaisip ang guro bago pinitik ang kan'yang kamay na tila may nalaman.

"Ah! Only one person that's recorded in history to have lined up among the S ranks that happened to be a Bisume. I forgot his name but his ability has something to do with touch. Enhanced touch. He exceed in combat field and he became undefeated making him the first Bisume to be associated with the S ranks. He had won a lot of battles and that made Lanham the most influential city among the cities of this generation." she explained with pride.

Now,I have a question in mind. But I chose not to raise my hand yet because Reign is still standing. She might be waiting for something.

"Where is he now?"kyuryusong tanong ni Reign.

Tumikhim ang guro."No one knows."

Our classes ended smoothly. Matapos tumunog ng bell ay naging hudyat iyon para tapusin ang klase para sa unang araw. I learned quite a lot today. That's what matters now.

Maraming estudyante ang nasa hallway na halos takpan na ang daan. Maingay at mukhang nagkakasiyahan dahil tapos na ang klase. Habang ako ay tahimik na nakikisabay sa kanila at lumiko sa isang corridor. Nakahinga ako nang maluwag nang maramdamang nakawala ako sa kumpol ng estudyante. Para akong nasusuffocate,e.

"Maybe you should read a lot."

Isang pamilyar na boses ang biglang nagsalita sa likuran ko. I don't need to look at her dahil alam ko naman kung sino iyon.

"I don't need to."tipid kong sagot.

Sumabay s'ya sa akin sa paglalakad.

"You should! Para naman may kasagutan ako sa diskusyon habang nagkaklase,you know? Like earlier,ang boring kasi ako lang naman ang nagpaparticipate among the class. Ang boring kapag walang kaagaw sa top spot."she chuckled. I hide my annoyance as I walk straight the hallway. Hindi ko alam kung saan patungo ang hallway na ito basta gusto kong makawala sa kumpol ng mga tao doon.
