THE END IS ALMOST SET

"NATIVIA, why did you . . ." Lis couldn't find the right words to say.

He was looking up. Looking at the Z-genes coming to them. As they grew nearer, the guards all over Mythria surrounded and outnumbered the Z-genes. Doctor Lucatha remained unthreatened, but the stroke of his eyebrows slanted, showing that his annoyance.

"Infuriating animals!" sigaw nito. Tinutukoy nito ang self-destruction na ginawa ng dalawang Z-gene at ang pagkasira ng council.

Nagkasalubong ang kanilang mga tingin. Napakuyom ang kaniyang mga kamao nang ngumisi ito sa kaniya.

The anger he felt towards him were immeasurable. Ramdam niya ang panginginig sa kaniyang kamay at ang bumabaon na kuko sa palad.

"How brave of you to be in our territory." Lis' mother, Reora, was burning with anger too. Ni hindi na makita ang pigura nito sa loob ng apoy. She became the fire itself; the hottest fire she could cast. Unbeatable, deadly, and pissed.

Lumipad ang kaniyang ina at hinarap ang doktor. The army was also waiting for her signal.

Sinulyapan ni Lis sa kanang bahagi 'di kalayuan sa kaniyang tinatayuan sina Sephtis at Aryl. He needed to keep them away from Doctor Lucatha first. Binaling niya ang tingin sa kabila kung saan naroroon si Violet at mabilis na hinawakan ang kamay nito kaya napatingin sa kaniya ang babae.

Hinila niya ito sa isang yakap at hinalikan ang noo. Hindi pinansin ni Lis ang ama nitong ang sama ng tingin sa kaniya.

"Stay with your father."

"Bakit? Saan ka pupunta?"

He smiled. "Dito lang naman. I need to do something."

He stared at her, his fingertips touching the mole below her eyes. He wanted to kiss it. After knowing what he had forgotten, he was sure of his feelings for her. Too sure that he wished a couple of times to let this timeline be their last battle.

"I'll see you later."

As Lis heard her mother's shout, the guards started to charge, battling the high and low-ranked Z-genes. Kumalas na rin siya sa pagkakayakap at tinungo ang direksyon nina Sephtis at Aryl, ngunit napatigil siya nang may malaking sibat na gawa sa tubig ang binato sa kaniyang direksyon.

It was from Nativia.

Eyes mad at him, Nativia charged and tried to land a blow on him from above. He was ready to accept her fist, but a figure of a man shielded him.

"Tripenthine?"

"Leave her to me," The king of the Merman said while not removing his attention to Nativia.

Hindi na siya sumagot pa at tinungo ang direksyon ng dalawang kaibigan. Hinila niya ang mga kamay nito at tumakbo papalapit sa isang guard house.

Pumasok sila roon.

"Master?" nagtatakang tawag ni Sephtis sa kaniya.

Nagtatanong din ang mga mata ni Aryl. "Bakit mo kami dinala rito?"

"I need to ask a favor from the both of you."

"What is it?"

He looked at Aryl, then to Sephtis. "Allow me to kill her."

---

"GET out of my way!" Nativia hissed as Tripenthine stopped every attack she made.

Stepping sidewards, he released a water-chaining spell from his hands. He grabbed her neck and pinned her on the ground. Pain was written all over his face as the water from his hand chained her neck, stopping her from getting up.
