Tamora Academy (Sylverian Series 1)

Chapter 14

MELIORA

"Violet Stone?!" malakas na sabi ni Sandra. 

Kumunot ang noo ng tumingin ang babae sa amin. 
"Bakit niyo ako kilala?! Sino kayo?!" 

Ang kaninang mahinahon nitong mukha ay napalitan ng galit. She positioned herself, na tila ba naghahanda sa pakikipaglaban. Ang iba naming kasama kapwa nakaawang ang bibig, hindi alam kong anong gagawin.

"We are not enemy. Pinadala kami ni Headmistress Selena dito para puntahan ka." marahang sabi ko.

"Bakit? Selena?" nagtatakang ani nito.

"Yes, she wants your help." sabi naman ni Sandra.

"Why ? Alam niyang ayaw ko na nang gulo." mahinahong sambit nito.

"We have a problem. She said you can help us." sagot ko.

Naging tahimik naman ito tila may malalim na iniisip, tumingin ito sa akin at biglang ngumiti. "Okay, ngunit kailangan muna nating maka-alis dito" mahinahong ani nito.

Dahil sa kanyang sinabi ay biglang nabuhayan ang iba. 

"Please isama niyo kami!"

"Maawa k-kayo!"

"A-ayaw naming matulad sa kanila."

Matulad sa kanila? Tiningnan ko naman ang nagsabi nito. She has curly hair, tan skin, chinita eyes. 

"Bakit? Ano bang nangyayari dito sa Bora? Nung dumating kami kahapon ay sobrang makulimlim ngunit ngayon napakasigla ng araw pati ng tao?" I confusely asked.

Napabuntong hininga si Miss Violet. " We got betrayed!" mariing sabi nito.

"Bora was so peaceful back then. We care each other and we help each other. Ayaw namin ng gulo, gusto naming mamuhay ng tahimik. Not until those people showed up. They have bruises in their body, they said they were accused, belittled and abused by a certain people. Of course, we help them, we feed and took care of them. Hanngang sa biglang unti-unting nawawala ang mga babae. We got confused and afraid at the same time. Although we have magic, but we were not trained well, ang iba ay hindi bihasa sa paggamit nito."

"You're a sorcerer right?" tanong ko.

Her eyes widened. " Pano mo nalaman?!"

"Because you're friends with Headmistress, pretty obvious." I stated.

"Kahit na isa akong sorcerer, matagal ko nang hindi nagagamit ito. I forgot some spells and chants, and I don't know how to create a potions. Dahil unti-unting nauubos ang mga babae dito ay pinili na naming mag-imbestiga. We found out this cabin, we heard noises asking for help. Nang tiningnan namin ito ay agad kaming nabahala. Those people they took their m-magic! They used it for their own good!" mariing sabi nito.

"W-what?! They took magic?" malakas na sabi ni Sandra.

"Yes, they took and used it. Yung mga taong nakikita niyo kanina, they lost their memories as well as their powers. They lived normally."

Binalingan ko ito nang tingin. "Sandra use your magic. Send a message to Vandel and others and to communicate later. Sabihin mo kung nasaan tayo, ngunit wag munang sumugod. Sasabihin lang natin kung kailan pwede na." I commanded her.

Tumango naman ito. She closed her eyes and murmured something in the air. "Okay na Meliora."

"Paano niyo kami matutulugan?" she asked.

Ngumisi naman ako. "Just trust us." I said and closed my eyes.

Unti-unting lumalamig, rinig ko pa ang reklamo ng iba. I focus and released my magic. When I opened my eyes I saw how they gasped. Tila namamangha ito .
