Chapter 12: Underground
~~~
Alexia's POVThe Dark Knights moved upstairs to the VIP Area, leaving me downstairs. They have glass walls, so I can see them from where I standing. Based on what they claimed. Only those in Ranks 1 to 10 are permitted to go up there. Everyone who is lower than rank 10 is currently on the first floor, where you can see the enormous stage.
I sat on the top bench. Getting away from everyone. I also meet Mia who passed by infront of me. He didn't recognize me because of the facemask I was wearing, which is a good thing.
There are hugely a lot of big gangs. Mostly I saw some gangs without covering their faces. I also saw some, maybe 5 gangs, that have their faces covered. They are typically higher level. Thus, I am unable to determine their rank.
Naging tahimik ang buong paligid ng pumasok ang mga nakaitim na tatlo na tao. Nakasuot sila ng mahabang damit na may kapote. Muka silang reaper kung tutuusin. Halos lahat ng tao ay nakatingin sakanila. Na ngayon paakyat sa ikalawang palapag kung saan may nakalagay na mga upuang parang trono.
Sa tingin ko ay sila na ang council. Pustura at awra palang mararamdaman mong mabigat. Nang makaupo sila ay samot saring kaingayan ang umalingaw ngaw.
"Tama nga ang balita, nandito ngayon ang council" rinig kong usap ng mga lalaki sa ibabang upuan ko.
"Kulang sila. Wala si Head" sagot naman ng kausap niya
"Oo nga. Wala nanaman siya"
"Palagi naman siyang wala eh"
Hinde kona sila ulit pinakinggan at tinuon nalang ang attention sa stage kung saan kasalukuyang nagsasalita ang isang lalaki mukang host.
"Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen"
Naghiyawan naman ang lahat ng tao. Halos mabingi nako dahil kaliwat kanang silang sumisigaw. Tss
"Welcome back to Hell Arenaaa!!"
Agad ako napatakip ulit sa tenga ng pagtapos sabihin iyon ng host na lalaki. Tf! Ang iingay nila.
"Ready naba ang mga sasabak sa madugong laban ngayong gabe?!"
Fuck! Jusko.
"Kung handa na nga. Let's rock and roll!!"
After noon ay may nilabas sa isang malaking screen na nakadikit malapit sa pwesto ng mga council. I think doon makikita kung sino ang lalaban.
Apat na laban na ang pinanood ko. Bored na bored ako panoorin ang mga naglalaban. Hinde ko sila feel. Lumaban ang Rank 5, Blazing Glory, and to my suprise yung nakalaban ko kanina ay myembro pala ng grupong iyon. In the end panalo sila laban sa Rank 8, Melee Matrix, na hinde ko kilala.
Nauuhaw nako. Badtrip!
Habang busy ang lahat nanunuod ng laban ay lumabas ako at pumunta sa bandang likod ng arena. May bar kasi doon.
Dahil lahat ng tao ay busy nanood kaya walang tao dito sa loob ng bar. Umupo ako sa bar stool habang nakasalumbaba.
"What is your drink, miss?"
"Anything will do but mild please" I replied
"For awhile"
This is freaking boring. Gangsters are so boring to watch. No killing, no weapons just fist combat. Where's the thrill in that? To my observations, some gangsters are immature. Madali mapikon at hinde tinatanggap ang pagkatalo.
Gaya ng napanood ko nung una. I forgot the name of their gang but it is a lower gang, around rank 20-30. Lower rank gang are so immature, after the fight they didn't accept defeat rather they kill with weapons and that's against the rules.
