The Princess of Thieves

Chapter 5

Drey

Oh, please, don't. . .

"Ok boss."

At dahan-dahan nga inalis ng isang gago ang face mask ko. At dahil lahat sila, nakatutok lang sa pagtanggal ng maskara sa mukha ko, I take the opportunity to slip my handcuff hands into the other guards belt bond. Swerte ring malapit lang siyang nakatayo sa 'kin, kaya dagli-dagli kong kinuha sa hook yung susi ng pusas at mariin yung tinago sa likod ko.

I then close my eyes when the face mask got into my eye part. Nang tuluyan na nilang natanggal yung maskara ko, I just let my dry wavy long blonde hair cascade through my back. And for the record, my hair is naturally blonde. I got it from my deceased mother who is luckily pure American. Iba nga lang ang mata ko. It was hazelnut colored. Galing sa magaling kung ama.

While the three idiots were busy scanning my face, I made my way through the cuffs and insert the key on the hole.

Pumasok ka. . Please. .

. . . . Yes!

I carefully held the handcuffs in my hands and focused my attention now at Supergod and the two douchebags.

"Quite enjoying the view aren't we?" I teasingly asked them (specially Supergod;dahil sa kanya lang naman ako nakatingin) then let out an annoying smirk at my perfect lips.

It took him seconds after he processed what I just said at them. Dagli-dagli naman siyang nag-iwas ng tingin dahil huling-huli sa akto ang pagtitig niya. I even see the raw of desire passes through her black ebony eyes before they blink them all away.

Bahagya siyang tumikhim at bumaling dun sa dalawang gunggong na di pa rin tumitigil kakatitig sa 'kin.

"D-dalhin niyo na yan."

Aw, how cute. He even stammer.

"Sige boss." they're about to hold both of my arms again, kaya agad ko silang pinagsisisiko sa ilong.

"Aw!" the man with millions (exaggerated. Maybe Hundreds) of craters on his face growl from the pain forming on his volcaninc nose. Dumugo kasi. . Yung isa naman, matutumba na kaya dagli-dagli kung kinuha yung baril sa waistband at pinaputukan ang dalawang gwardya sa magkabila nilang paa. Leaving Supergod who's entirely shock at what happen. He immediately put his hands on the air.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Easy there, babe. Easy. Why don't you put the gun down, and will settle this in a smooth manner." I immediately smirk at what he said.

"Think, I'm going to believe you, Mister? Well, think again!" then I cock the gun to complete all my scary act.

"Okay! Okay!" but the jerk just shake his head dismissively and let out an annoying (for me) grin at me. "But, you wouldn't get away, anyway. Cop squads were waiting for you outside."

"Really? What if I shoot you straight on your head? I'm going to be in jail anyway." kahit may konting kaba ako sa narinig, di ko naman hahayaang ipakita ko yun sa lalaking 'to. Swerte niya naman kung ganun. .

"Okay. I've been shot many times before, so it doesn't matter now. Go ahead. Shoot me, babe." I almost rolled my eyes at him. Ayan na namam yang babe. Do I look like an effien pig?!

I aimed intently the gun at him. Like, I'm going to shoot him really. Sayang naman kasi ang kagwapohan nito kung babarilin lang. Maybe I just shoot him on the leg? Or on the arms? Siguro kahit saan basta wag lang siguro sa ulo.

Seryoso rin lang siyang nakatingin sa 'kin. Like, he is challenging me to pull the trigger or something. .

Then, lumipas ang ilang segundo na hindi ko man lang siya binabaril, binababa na niya yung mga kamay niya sa ere at bahagya yung pinasok sa magkabila niyang bulsa.

"Sabi ko na nga ba." he then slowly walked forward to me."You can't shoot me, babe."

Mariin ko lang siyang tinititigan habang palapit siya ng palapit sa kinatatayuan ko. When he was a ruler away from me, kinuha niya sa 'kin yung hawak kong baril at tinapon yun sa gilid.

"I've been waiting for this day, to happen, babe. To see you again after so many years, was the last thing I hadn't been expecting for my last twenty-four years of living. It's nice to meet you again, Drey."

He know me? And what the fuck is he talking about?

I was about to answer when I saw some cops slowly emerging from the corner. I looked at Supergod again.

"It's nice to meet you, too. . ." then I knock him off using my head that causes him to stumble on his feet. ". . . . Asshole." then I kneed him straight into his stomach.

Narinig ko naman siyang humiyaw bago ako tuluyang umalis sa kinaroroonan ko.

What is taking the bitch so long?

We've been waiting for Drey to come out from Amelia's mansion for, like a year. Di na kasi ata, gumagana ang ear piece niya. So, we totally lost all the connections from her. Baka ano nang nangyari, sa babaeng yun. I know that she could be, stupid sometimes. And tanga for the Filipino term. And for the record, I'm not really a Filipino. I am half American and half Spanish by blood. Marunong lang akong magsalita ng Tagalog kasi, I'm a linguist. Well, we both are. Kami nina Reid, Max and Drey. Explanations to that? Simple. We attend the same training school for assasins. Cool, isn't it? And because, we're attending that training camp. It is required to know several languages for a certain missions. Isa yun sa mga subjects na pinag-aralan namin. The rest? Nah, 'amnot going to tell yah. Maybe some other time, when your friend is not currently missing anymore.

Well anyway, we are just impatiently waiting here for Drey. Who is, currently fighting there, probably for her freedom (not a patriot kind of a thing).

"Maybe we should probably go and get her. She could be in trouble or something." To my surprise, Max said. Marunong din pala siyang mag-aalala. Last time I check, it was okay to her that Drey was going to stay behind the library.

"Mayb--"

"Is that Drey?" I cut Reid on his words when I suddenly saw a human figure emerging from wherever-door-is.

"What the fuck is she doing?" -Max

"Why did you even ask? Come on, grab the gun."

Tas, nagpatiuna na akong maglakad palapit sa kinaroroonan ni Drey, which is currently shooting bullets from her back.

"Drey!" I shouted at her.

Oh God. Why did she bring the whole party out here?

I started to help her shoot the fucking goons at her back (which is a squad--unfortunately), while Max is doing the same thing too.

"Drey, we gotta get out of here. There's too many of them!" I heard Max shouted at her.

Nakita ko naman si Drey na tumatakbo sa kinaroroonan namin.

"Come on." I urge Max beside me to run to.

"Reid, start the fucking car!"

Agad-agad namang pumasok si Reid sa loob ng sasakyan at binuhay ang makina no'n. Then he started driving towards us. We hurriedly climb up into the back seat when Reid stop just in front of us.

"Drey, hurry!"

Nahuli pa kasi siya ng takbo sa 'min.

"HURRY, DREY! They're shooting!"

The jerks is now starting to shoot our car. Oh god, bakit ba ang kupad tumakbo ng babaeng 'to?

"Drive now, Reid! DRIVE!"

And then buti nakahabol pa si Drey bago pa patakbuhin ni Reid ang sasakyan paalis.
