"Here's your backpack"
Sabi ni Xyrus habang sinusuot nya saakin yung itim na backpack habang nag lalakad kami palabas ng isang tent pag katapos kong mag palit ng damit dahil nadumihan at nabalot na rin sa dugo yung mga suot ko kahapon so I just decided to wear a black tank top na pinatungan ng dark green french work sanfor jacket partnered with black cargo pants na pang baba
"Did you already inject yourself one?" He asked again habang nag lalakad kami papunta sa kay commander Orpus na nag iintay na daw sa may gate ngayon. On the other hand Xyrus was just wearing a black fitted shirt na pinatungan ng harness battle belt that made his biceps and well built body become more visible. While black military pants naman yung pangbaba nya
"Nandyan sa loob ng bag lahat ng kaylangan mo for this one, may baril dyan that you can use to protect yourself, there is also foods and can goods that can last for days para kung hindi ka agad makakabalik and nandyan na rin yung vaccine for you so don't ever lose that bag" He reminded me
Habang nag lalakad kami papunta sa gate ng wall two kung saan ang iintay sila commander Orpus ay hindi maiwasang may mapatingin na mga tao saamin, I don't kung dahil kay Xyrus yon o kung dahil nag tataka sila kung pano ako nakalaya when they has been told that I was the one who opened the gate and let those ghouls get inside this colosseum and kill alot of people
Hindi ko nalang din pinansin yung mga nanlilisik na mga tingin nila saakin at pinagpatuloy nalang yung pag lalakad. Napansin din naman agad ni Xyrus na medyo naiilang ako so he wrapped his arms around my shoulder as we continue walking kaya napatingin ako sakanya but yet he just shrugged
"Oh buti naman nandito na kayo, you guys was just in time" Sabi naman ni commander Orpus saamin nang makarating na kami kung nasan sila nag iintay ngayon kasama yung iba pang mga sundalo. Agad namang inalis ni Xyrus yung kamay nya sa braso ko when he noticed the commander looking
"So what am I gonna do now?" Tanong ko sakanya kaya nabaling naman yung tingin nya sakin. He just lightly chuckled as he start walking towards me, huminto rin naman sya sa harapan ko as he put both of his hands on my shoulders bago sya mag salita to tell me something
"Sasabihin sayo ng mga sundalo ko kung ano yung gagawin mo pag nahatid kana nila don sa target, so get yourself together" Saad nya as he tap my shoulder using both of his hands. Naglakad rin sya palapit kay Xy at tinapik din yung balikat nito as we both watch him walk away
"You sure you'll be okay?" Nalipat naman kay Xyrus yung tingin ko nang tumabi sya saakin at nag tanong. Tumango nalang din naman ako but I was immediately got caught off guard when he suddenly hugged me tightly "Be careful and don't get yourself killed, okay?" He said
"I promise" Sabi ko rin sakanya as I hugged him back "I also promise that when I get back here our friends are finally with me" Dagdag ko kaya natigilan naman sya, he also just did break the hug after hearing my say that but his hands still remain on both of my shoulders. Napatingin naman agad ako sakanya by his sudden change of mood but he just looked away
"Althea please don't get your hopes to high because I don't want you to be disappointed if things didn't end up the way you expected" Sabi nya saakin kaya agad namang kumunot yung noo ko at napansin din naman nya agad yon "I don't want to say this because even myself don't want this to happen. Pero Althea we doesn't know if any of our friends is still alive" He added
I just looked away from him and remove his hands on my shoulders after hearing those word he said. I know he could be right but still, I still want to see those people so I wouldn't stop finding them, not until I finally get to see a corpse of each one of those people
"Alam ko na mahirap sayo to because even myself was still hoping for them to be alive pero minsan kaylangan din nating harapin yung totoong buhay. We must know that not everything will be always on our favor" Dagdag pa nya as he held my hand and start caressing it gently
Tumango nalang din ako sakanya dahil alam ko rin namang tama sya but that doesn't mean I'm giving up. I spent those nine months going in and out of this abandoned colosseum to find them and not even once I get to saw any of them, neither as a corpse or as a ghoul so there must still be a chance
"Understand Xyrus, don't worry" Sabi ko bago ako tumingin ulit sakanya as he plaster a smile at me so I just returned it with a light one "I'll need to go now" Sabi ko sakanya nang makita kong tinatawag na'ko ng tatlo sundalo na makakasama ko so I just gave Xy a kiss on his cheek bago ako tumakbo palapit sa tatlong sundalo at sumakay sa isang military truck
Nang makasakay na'ko sa likod ng truck na yon ay bumalik din naman agad kay Xyrus yung tingin ko na parang naestatwa sa kinakatayuan nya habang nakahawak don sa pisngi nya na hinalikan ko kanina. Napatingin din naman sya saakin when he saw me starring kaya kumaway nalang din sya as the military truck that I was riding started to make our way out of the place
"So what will I need to do?" Tanong ko sa babaeng naka military uniform na nakaupo sa likudan ng truck sa harapan ko kaya napatingin din naman sya saakin bago sya sumagot at itinuro yung isang box under our seat
"Here, kakaylanganin mo yang idikit sa ilalim ng sasakyan ng mga militar na susundan mo" Sabi naman nya as she handed me a small tracker device habang yung isa naman ay parang maliit na cellphone where you can see the location of the tracker kung saan mo ididikit yon
"Pero para makasigurado tayong masusundan mo parin yung sasakyan ng mga yon if ever na hindi gumana yan o kung may ano mangyari ay gagamit tayo ng itim na mga pintura" She added as she pointed at the box again
"Wouldn't they notice it if we painted their wheel and besides pano kung matuyo yung pintura habang patuloy na umaandar yung sasakyan nila?" Tanong ko naman ulit sakanya habang nakatingin pa rin don sa mga galon galon na pintura sa ilalim ng upuan na inuupuan namin ngayon
"Then the work will be on the tracker" She simply answer, napakapit naman agad kaming dalawa sa hawak ng sasakyan ng biglang umalog yon ng malakas dahil medyo lubak yung kalasandang dinadaan namin ngayon "The paints was only the second option if sakaling masira yung tracker but don't worry because we will also attach a paint sa sasakyan nila mismo" She said
"What do you mean by that?" Naguguluhang tanong ko sakanya, I mean, naintindihan ko naman yung mga sinabi nya nung una but yung huli lang yung medyo nag palito saakin. Because if ever we attach those gallons of paints on their car, they probably will notice that and isa pa baka maubos agad yung mga yon hindi pa man nakakalayo yung sasakyan
"Bubutasan lang natin ng maliliit yung mga galon na yan para patak lang yung mababawas kada sigundo at para na rin umabot yon ng matagal kung sakaling magiging mahaba man yung byahe, you will attach and stick atleast three of those paints on their car tapos non you don't have to worry about anything anymore hanggang gumagana yung tracker" She explained
Tumango nalang din naman ako sakanya after non dahil naintindihan ko na rin naman yung sinasabi nya so I just lean my back sa pader ng sasakyan as I shifted my gaze outside by the window as I see the view of destroyed at medyo hinahalam ng mga gusali at mga sirang sasakyan na nasa daan
I just manifested na wala kaming ghouls na makakasalubong as we made our way there. Luckily ay ganon na nga ang nangyari as we reach our destination, we just park our car beside a building kung saan hindi kami masyado kita habang kami naman ay pinapanood lang na pumarada din sandali yung target naming sasakyan sa may gilid as two soldiers goes out of their vehicle
May isa din namang sundalo ang naiwan don sa sasakyan na yon and yon yung driver "Are you ready?" Tanong saakin ng babaeng sundalo habang yung dalawa pa namang kasama naming sundalo na mga lalaki ay nakatingin lang saakin habang nag iintay ng sagot ko so they could get ready
"Yeah, just don't get me killed" Sabi ko sakanila as sigh and rolled my eyes bago ako bumaba ng sasakyan. Pumwesto na rin naman yung isa pang lalaki at umakyat sa taas ng sasakyan to adjust his sniper habang yung babae namang sundalo ay inaabot sakin yung mga pintura
