Wrath Of Azura

"Kick higher, ha!" I kicked my leg at sinundan niya ito. She's doing well and it actually made me proud. "Again and make sure you use all your strength, okay?"

"Sì!!" she followed my instructions and she did it great.

We continued our training until she said she can't move anymore.

"Big Bo, my legs hurt, my body hurt, and my whole body hurts!" she whined while laying down on the ground.

"It means you're getting stronger." I smiled at her and pat her head. "Azura, do you have a brother?"

"Sì!" tumayo siya at hinihila ang damit ko para tumayo din. "Follow me," she whispered and lead me the way.

Nakarating kami sa isang palace din at mukhang abandanado na ito dahil puro bak-bak na at ang mga halaman nito ay natutuyo na. May isang malaki na gate at saradong-sarado ito.

Tumingin ako kay Azura na pumasok sa isang butas na tinatakpan ng mga palumpong. Bago ko pa siya pagsabihan ay tumuloy ito sa pag punta sa loob ng palasyo.

"H-hey, Azura! this is trespassing!" I yelled for her quietly but she just ignored me at patuloy-tuloy siya pag pasok sa loob.

"Shit," I mumbled at lumusot na din sa butas na 'yon. Dali-dali ko siyang sinundan sa loob at napaawanga ng labi ko ng makita ko ang loob. It was full of dried blood, scratches everywhere, and holes on the wall, and it looks like this place has never been cleaned.

"Here, here!" Azura points at a huge portrait.

I looked up and saw a portrait of a man sitting on a sofa with a young boy beside him. The man has a small smile plastered on his face and the boy was smiling brightly... it was a portrait of Revis and Noah.

"Lily said that boy is my grande Fratello!" Azura said happily.

I slowly touch the portrait and I notice it was painted and the paints are slowly fading. They look like a common father and son relationship... just what happened?

Is this Noah's own palace? with Revis?

"Why are you afraid of your dad?" I notice that Revis is a good father, but Azura and Revis seem to have a problem.

"Papa... is scary," Azura said in a low voice.

Binuhat ko na lang si Azura para lumabas na kami, because this is Noah's and we were trespassing it. "Have you met with your big Bother?"

"No," she shake her head and smiled, "but it's okay! I have Raphael with me!"

Raphael Philo de Firoh. I know him dahil siya minsan ang chismis ng mga guards at maids dito. He's the current heir nasusunod kay Revis after Noah died. Anak siya ng isa sa mga kapatid ni Revis and for what I know... violence is fun and games for him.

He's different from Noah... because he already lost his sanity.

Lumabas na kami ni Azura and I look at the palace again one last time. It must be so fun to live there?... or not. "Azura, you should never go back inside again because this place is for your brother only hm?"

"Bene!" Azura nodded.

"Starlight!"

Lumingon kami and we saw a boy with maids behind him holding gifts. Pumunta si Azura sa likod ko and she looked scared, napansin kaagad 'yon ng batang lalaki at agad pinunas ang mga dugo-dugo sa mukha niya at sinusubukan takpan ang mga dugo sa damit niya.

"No, no, no! I fell down the stairs, starlight." He said nervously and Azura actually believe him. She goes towards him at binuhat siya ni Rapahel. Of course, it was a lie... he was on a mission to kill someone from the Maldives.
