Blood from Roses

T R E V O R

As we got information, the four of us started moving. However, the media starts to get crazy as they find out about the escape of Mr. Collen. Adhi is exhausted as he continues to punch the punching bag. Bell is sitting peacefully while playing chess with us. Luke is solving math as a stress reliever.

"Checkmate," I smirked as I won the game. She glared at me and when we're about to play again Adhi came nearer.

He stopped, then glanced at us. "Have you watched the video?"

Luke nodded, "Yes, I didn't know a Pharmaceutical Scientist can be a vlogger too. He's into trends now."

My forehead creased out of confusion. "What video?"

Luke swayed his shoulders. "As expected to this caveman." I just frowned at him. Mabilis akong lumingon kay Adhi ng magsalita ito.

"He posted a video on YouTube. The background is dark but you can notice his equipment and the facilities."

"Here," Bell handed her phone to me. When I got the phone I played the video.

Reymund mixed the red liquid in another tube which contained black liquid. He is smiling widely.

"Salute plurimam dicit. Si vales, bene est, ego valeo. Before announcing something big. I would like to declare that you won't be able to trace anything from here. I'm just a mere vlogger. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the whole show!"

I paused the video. Nilingon ko ang paligid, at kahit napanood na ay nakikinood pa rin sila.

Luke laughs, "He's cute. Especially when he said, Many greetings. If you’re well, then that’s good, and I’m well too." I see, that's the meaning of it. I thought it was something I needed to decode.

Bell looks at him with disapproval. While Adhi is cracking from laughing.

"What? Stupid always look cute." He defended,

But I agreed, "You're cute then, you better shut up now. "

The video continues...

After transferring the liquid, it mixes. Reymund left the area and moved from the other side. "So the question is why I am here?'

He removed his gloves. "First, I'm a genius. A genius will always get it's victory because you stupid species are all useless shits. Oops… I'm being unprofessional--"

"Can't you skip? It's irritating." I glared at Adhi.

"Go away, I need to watch the whole video."

Luke put his fist under his chin, forming a mic. "Do you wanna build a snowman~"

Bell's face crumpled, "Just do your math, tsked."

Mabilis kong itunoon ang tingin sa video. He showed another tube, different from what he had a while ago. "So, today I'm gonna show you how I'll use this to bring the world down. The best is first, to manipulate your country. This country sucks, even the government is nothing compared to the skilled person, Reymund Collen."
