Next Day:
" Are they going to keep testing you? " tanong ni Tally
" Who knows? They don't tell us anything. " sabi ni Raelle
" I hope so. There's no way
they're just gonna let it go. " sabi ni Billy
" What, so you wanna keep being a lab rat? " sabi ni Raelle
" If it keeps us in the fight, yes.
Don't you want to understand
what happened? " sabi ni Billy
" Yes, of course, I do. But I'd rather we figure it out ourselves than have Izadora poking and prodding us. " sabi ni Raelle
" How about you?. Any more weird Alder dreams or snakebites? " sabi ni Abigail kay Tally
" It was centipedes. And no, but I almost wish I would have one. It was terrifying, but also kind of amazing. " sabi ni Tally
" All right, Bells. I know you've been waiting for this day your whole life.
So what are we in for? " sabi ni Raelle
" Yeah, when do we meet our Company? " tanong ni Lex
" This morning. But nobody says Company. Just call it our Coven. " sabi ni Abigail
" Sekhmet. Egyptian? " tanong ni Tally
" Every Coven is named after a war goddess. " sabi ni Abigail
nakita naman nina Tally may nakatingin sa kanila.
" Guys, apparently there are
a lot of rumors going around
about the five of us. " sabi ni Tally
" What?! " tanong ni Raelle sa isang Non Binary na tao.
" I guess some people are saying we only got in because your mom pulled strings. " sabi ni Tally
" Let people talk. We'll show them what we're made of soon enough. " sabi ni Abigail
" Is that the VP's daughter? " sabi ni Abigail
" Yeah. And they're having her stay
on this side of the base until basic starts. " sabi ni Tally
" Tally, no.. nangyari na yan before, right?. VP's Daughter. pinakulong tayo ni Vice
President when we kill his daughter " sabi ni Raelle
" yeah " sabi ni Tally
" if maging wanted na naman tayo. i don't know if ano pa ang pwede kong magawa " sabi ni Raelle
" if mangyari man yun. tayong lahat ang gagawa ng paraan. haharapin natin sila kasalanan natin " sabi ni Abigail
" Yeah, everything. we can. basta mag kakasama tayong lahat " sabi ni Tally
***************
" Welcome to War College, Sekhmet. I'm your Coven Leader. Call me M. " sabi ni M
" Feel free to come to me with any questions you might have. You'll have some of your general classes together as a Coven, but on most days you'll be following your individual specializations.. Once you've finished dealing with your super-cool hair, of course. Fear not. You're still bunking together as units. You'll find your rooms down the hall if you want to go ahead and stow your gear. Dismissed. " sabi ni M
" Collar, can I borrow you for a sec? " tanong ni M
lumapit naman si Raelle. at umalis na ang iba.
" I'm sorry about earlier. " sabi ni Raelle
" No need to apologize. I was staring at you. " sabi ni M
