"Heck!" I whisper to myself noong nakita kong nakatakas ang bihag ko. I ran through the narrow street where he passed.
Noong makarating ako doon, bigla akong pinaulanan ng maraming palaso. Ngunit mabilis ko iyong nailagan at nagtago sa puno malapit sa dulo ng eskinitang pinasukan ko.
I push the square button on my wrist watch and it started to emit a light and begin to be on the form of my Lightning sword.
Naramdaman ko ang pagdaan ng anino nya papunta sa puno kung saan naroon ako. Kaya naman mabilis akong kumilos at sinuntok ko sya. Pero ang hayop, matigas ang mukha.
Kaya naman nakuha nya ang paa ko dahilan ng pagkawala ko sa balanse. Tinawanan ako ng halimaw.
Kinuha ko ang pagkakataong iyon upang mabilis na umakyat sa puno at bumwelo, dahilan ng mabilis na pag-galaw ng kanan kong kamay na hawak ang lighting sword at itinungo ko sa parte ng leeg nya.
"Bull's eye!" I said then I smile to my success of killing that monster.
After a long period of silence, the cold wind blew before me.
"Kenna..." I shivered as I heard him say my name.
"Kenna..." He repeated. It's Tyler. This time, more shivering and haunting. And before I could make any move, nasa harap ko na sya..
He's smiling at me. But there's something different on the way he smiles at me. Even the way he looked at me, it's... Scary.
Bago pa man ako makapagsalita at makagalaw ay naramdaman ko ang mga labi nyang nakalapat sa labi ko.
The sweetness of his kisses fades and it was replaced by bitterness. It's full of lies. It tastes so bad. I feel betrayed by his lips.
Nevertheless, I try not to think to much about it. I love him. And he loves me, I must not doubt it.
"Heart is the most decietful among all, Kenna... And you shouldn't trust on it's beat." He said when our lips parted.
"Cause it might just betray you." He whispered.
"W-what are you t-talking about, T-tyler?" I said while turning my back from him, stuttering. I got no answer from him.
Pagharap ko ay wala na sya.
"Tyler?!" Sigaw ko.
"Missing me that much?!" Dinig na dinig ko ang puso kong sobrang nagkukumawala sa sobrang gulat at sobrang kaba..
"T-yler.."
"Let's play, Kenna. Run, then I will haunt you down." He said smiling.
"I SAID RUN!! GIVE YOURSELF A CHANCE TO LIVE!!" He shouted then I run. I saw it. His necklace. Matagal ko nang napapaniginipan 'yon at palagi akong binabangungot. Sya nga ba? Pero bakit ng lalaking mahal ko pa?
Tumakbo ako ng tumakbo pero hinahabol nya ko. And it happened. He's not Tyler anymore.
"ARGH!" Napasigaw ako sa sakit noong tamaan ako ng patalim nya sa parte ng binti ko at nadapa ako.
Gayon pa man ay nagpatuloy parin ako sa pagtakbo. Para akong tanga. Nakikipaghabulan sa kamatayan ko. Sabi nila, kapag isang araw ay nakita mong wala ka nang anino, panaginip man ito o hindi, ay malapit nang dumating ang Shadow of Death mo.
Naaalala ko noong una akong magising sa mga braso ni Tyler, nakita kong wala akong anino noon. Pero hindi yun pinansin at ipinagwalang bahala.
Even though I knew he'll be my reason of death, I still chose him to be my reason of living. That everyday of my life, he's all I wanted to see, he's all I wanted to hear.
