Tiger Queen | UNDER REVISION :) |

Prologue.

"And on her 18th birthday, her true blood must invade her mind, body, heart and even her soul. Thus, she should be awakened by the thirst that yearns to be freed from inside; her inner beast. Hungry for escape. Wanting to rip free from the prison that encages her." He said whilst reading the last page of the book that has been torn off.

"It is the only way to save humanity..." Tita Vic said, staring at me deeply.

"Can I really do that - I mean, die and let them live their own lives?" I finally said, in a state of shock.

"Yes. You can, you must," She replied, emphasizing the word 'must'.

I then nodded and closed my eyes again.

"This is absurd." Pag tututol ni Mark. "You know that it's impossible for the Gods to blame it all on you. You've done nothing wrong! Ikaw nga ang palaging lumiligtas sa mga taong inaapi at inaagrabyado ng masasamang nilalang dito sa mundong ibabaw!" Galit niyang sabi at sinipa ang aking kinauupuan na kamang yari sa bakal.

"Don't worry. She will resurrect by the time she reaches 18 years old." Kalmadong sabi ni Tito sa kanya na kinagalit lalo ni Mark.

"Gaano ka kasigurado Dad na magigising si Julie?" Nanghahamong sabi niya sa kanyang Ama. "We don't even know if this is worth it. Na kung tama ba ang mga pangitain na pinakita kay Julie!" Alam kong nasasaktan siya kaya siya nagkakaganito.

"Hush now, Son. Everything's going to be okay.." marahang sabi ni Tita habang niyayakap ang anak na walang humpay ang pag iyak.

Pakiramdam ko ay dinudurog ang puso ko sa nakikita ko ngayon.

"Do you even know if that book is legit?" Nawawalan ng pag asang tanong niya sa kanyang Ina. "Mom.. please don't let her do it.. we're not even sure if she's gonna resurrect..."

"She won't even recognize us. Or everything that she encountered with once she resurrects." Saad ni Tito na kinalaki ng mga mata ko. "You won't even recognize Mark, your Hunter." Ramdam ko ang pangingiligid ng luha ko sa sinabi niya. "You're as good as a blank slate. You're gonna be filled with anger. You won't even know if you're still you once you open your eyes again."

Napapikit ako sa mga sinabi niya at ramdam ko ang mainit na yakap ni Mark sa akin. "Please don't go.. please don't leave me.."

Kahit ayaw ko ring iwanan siya ay tinibayan ko ang loob ko. "P-Please don't make this any harder for me.." kinalas ko ang yakap niya at tinignan siya sa kanyang mata. "I won't forget you.. I promise you that you'll always have a place in here.." turo ko sa aking puso. "My mind might forget you, but my heart will always beat for you."

"How are you sure that you won't forget m-me?" Umiiyak paring tanong niya.

"Because you're my King. You are my Hunter, my one and only." And with that ay isiniil ko ang aming mga labi at pinagdikit ang aming mga noo. "I need you to stay strong for me. For our parents and for our friends."

"What will I say to them?"

"Tell them the truth.." malungkot ngunit nakangiting sabi ko. "There's no point in hiding it anyway."
