I AM A BAD GENIE

~ Snow ~

Sana mali ang hinala ko. Tsk. Nalingat lang ako saglit at nandito na sila para lusubin ang akademiya. Hindi pa pala sila ubos.

"Snow, we have a problem?" bungad sa akin ni Elmira.

She is healing fast pero kailangan niya pa ding mag-ingat. Itong investigations niya ata ang kaniyang greatest motivation.

"Ugh. We always have problems, what is it this time?"

Wala pa kaming progreso tungkol sa spell na nandoon sa palasong inabot ko sa kaniya galing sa taas pero alam na namin ngayon kung anong kayang gawin nun. Wala na kaming oras.

"Mapapaaga ang duel. It will start a day after Blue's birthday."

"What! Anong magagawa natin sa humigit kumulang isang lingo? Who decided that?"

"Headmaster. He already knew about this project."

"Holy freak, hindi ba ito sikreto?" Nananakit ang ulo ko dahil hindi ko alam kung kanino niya narinig. Sigurado naman ako na kami lang ni Elmira ang nakakaalam, unless nakatunog si Silver o sinabi sa kaniya ni Elmira. "I hate it but he's right. That's the best option to keep the students safe."

"Pero hindi tayo makakasiguro. Kahit na gipitin natin sila sa oras ng preparation, if they are already prepared enough, there's nothing else we could do but count the casualties."

"Was the notice already posted?"

"Not yet."

"Okay. Let me see the schedule."

"Perfect. Gather all the rankers, we only have today for a meeting and a week left to secure the arena. Same time, same place."

Dumiretso ako sa training room para maglabas ng stress. I went through the simulation. Iwinasiwas ko ang espada sa lahat ng sumusugod na dummies. This could've been my only rest day tapos magkakaroon pa kami ng late-night meeting. Ugh. I'm running out of patience.

Now, that's level 56 in five minutes. Gosh, I hate sweat. Gusto ko nang maligo. Paakyat na sana ako ng kwarto ko nang makita ko si Silver na patungo ng side gate. What is he up to?

Ipinagkibit-balikat ko na lang dahil nanlalagkit na ako sa sariling pawis. But, I cannot bear my curiosity. Why not spend a few minutes to find out?

I was a little late when I got there. Silver has completely depleted the breath of the poor creature.

"Snow."

"Well, I shouldn't expect less from the second ranker."

Tinignan kong mabuti ang itsura nung elementian. I can memorize better than anyone else, besides I can rewatch my own memory so I am sure of this. He's not a student of the academy nor a recruit, saan naman ito nanggaling?

"The security was breached. Nakumpirma na ito nila Master Ric but I doubt na kahapon lang ito nangyari," paliwanag niya.

"How many spies have you disposed so far?"

"Nine on my own, 13 in total with the North defenders."

"How many spies in total?"

"Hindi ko masabi."

Pumanhik na ako sa kwarto ko saka nagbabad sa bathtub. Pinalamig ko ang tubig hanggang sa nais ko. Ting. Elmira already sent the meeting notice to all rankers. Gustuhin ko mang magbabad pa, I already need to go. Pagbukas ko ng pinto, there is Thunder holding my niece standing at my doorstep.
