40. La Estrategia

I swear, my dream wasn't coincidental.

I had goosebumps all over my body once he mentioned the word that had been bugging me since I woke up.

I gasped when I saw his eyes went crimson and the familiar red rims appeared. Sa isang kisap ko ay nawala ang mga ito habang ang tingin niya ay nakabaling na sa katabi niyang si kuya Helix.

"We will have another trainor, as Brax. . ." kuya Helix coughed, "is currently unavailable due to his incapacity." 

"Bakit daw? He had been a good. . ." hindi ko na ipinagpatuloy ang sinabi ko nang maramdaman ko ang tatlong mapangsaway na titig nina Santh, kuya Alexander at Zien.

"Need I remind you that he almost let you get eaten in a den of a wolf," my brother disdainfully glared at Santh, "just so that his interno would come out."

Pinanlakihan ko ng mata si kuya. He just shrugged. Magkatabi sila ni Zien na nakaupo sa lapag. May ibinulong ang kaibigan ko sa kanya pero umirap lang si kuya. He winced in pain when Zien pinched him on his side.

"Nasa hospital si Sir Brax ngayon." singit ni Zien bago tumikhim. "Courtesy of Alexander Lacroix."

"Dude challenged Brax on a duel and it would be seen as weakness if he denies it, as a member of Fénix."

I didn't expect my brother to have that kind of capability in him. I doubt he is even my real brother.

He hides a lot of secrets.

Magsasalita sana ako nang magitla ako sa malakas na pagsarado ng laptop na hawak ni Zedrick.

Bakit ang ikli ng pasensya ng lahat?

"That bastard deserves it." he brushed his black hair aback. And I won't deny I missed that. "Before we get far from the issue at hand, I'd like to elaborate our agenda on the inevitable."

Lahat kami ay seryosong nakinig sa mga sinasabi niya. He even spontaneously asks for our input as we are a team, the Aire. Matters are getting out of hand and the welfare of students are at risk.

"As you know, Previone's sister, Hurricane was held captive by the higher ups of Schiller Academy. And I thought she's dead." humina ang boses ni Zedrick sa huling mga salita. Naging tagapag-bantay nga pala niya ito. 

Ang nagligtas sa aming dalwa. 

"If Storm is the son of one of the directors, why is his sister prisoned?" I asked.

Siah answered for me. "Because she saved you and the twin." nahihiya siyang tumungo. "Storm once mentioned that you were the girl her sister saved."

"Hurri was supposed to work for the Fourniers to abduct the twins and get the Arca. Pero dahil mabuti ang puso niya, iniligtas niya kayo sa araw ng pagdakip," saglit siyang tumingin sa kambal, "kahit na walang kasiguraduhan ang kaligtasan niya sa kamay ng ama niya."

"Storm was also just a victim. He loves his sister so much I'd also do anything if I were him to save her. Nagkataon lang na mali ang landas na tinahak niya."

"Upang mapalaya ang kapatid niya, kinailangan niyang kunin ang tiwala mo Zedrick. Upang ialay sa ama niyang gahaman sa kapangyarihan."

Zedrick scoffed. "And he's quite the actor. He should've joined the Theater's Club, he'll get more recognition."
