DEMIGODS: Within The Myths (New Version)

Chapter 40: Pearls (Part 4)(New Version)

AIZEN.

I am in the wrong group. I'm in the middle of the volcanoes, they are giving me death glares. Hindi pa rin sila nakakamove on sa pang-aasar ko kahapon.

I just saved Ice because of Serena's theory. I don't want her to be in the middle of a fight that she doesn't know that exists. Ice is too naive for love.

I was rubbing both of my hands, the temperature in the south pole is much lower than the Cerulean Kingdom. We are traveling in the Mortal World, the coordinates were pointing in Antarctica, a continent in the Earth located in the south pole.

I do have a fact about this continent, it is the only continent without a country. Most people don't know this but it is also a desert because it does not rain or snow a lot here. And the largest desert belongs here, it is the Antarctic Desert. At alam ko rin na hindi alam ni Phoenix ang mga facts na 'to. Bobo kasi 'yon.

We all halted when three routes welcomed us. Our destination is the Blood Falls, hindi ko rin alam kung saan gawa ang utak ni Master Garet para matandaan ang exact coordinates ng Blood Falls.

"Let's go to the right."

"No, to the left."

I pursed my lips. The volcanoes are contradicting each other. I step backward and watch Sky and Riley scowled at each other. Nang lumingoy sa 'kin si Master Garet ay tumango siya at nag-umpisang maglakad patungo sa gitnang daan.

"Kids nowadays," I mumbled.

"You're a kid, Aizen." Master Garet laughed.

I shook my head while shaking my index finger, "But I am matured unlike those two," I pointed out while glimpsing to the two guys at our back, they are still busy glaring at each other.

I pulled Master Garet's arm when I smelled something funny. Mabilis niya naman na nakuha ang pinahahayag ko. Masamang tingin naman ang binigay ko sa dalawang bumangga sa likuran ko. "Still not done?"

Parehas silang umiwas sa masamang tingin ko kaya't muli akong lumingon sa unahan. OH MY DEMIGODS! Napatiklop ko sila.

In front of us was the Blood Falls, it was peculiar. The water flowing down the falls was rusty and that is why it is called the Blood Falls.

"The other half," Sky mumbled.

We curiously looked at Riley who was throwing seeds at the Blood Falls. "Mukha bang may kalapating tutuka niyan?" I joked. Riley suddenly raised his middle fingers.

Trees began to grow in the falls. I wryly smiled when Sky started to water the tree using the Blood Falls. They are meant to be together. Nagtutulong sila upang makuha ang kalahating bahagi ng pearl.

I squinted my eyes. I heard gibberish noises nearby, it seems hungry and thirsty for no reason. Master Garet was holing the other of the pearl while restraining Riley and Sky who were fighting.

I roamed my eyes and wryly smiled, "Guys..."

"SHUT UP, AIZEN!" The three of them shouted. I turned and run away from them. Morons. "TANGINA! WHAT IS THAT?" I heard Riley shouted.

Nang maramdaman kong tumatakbo rin sila ay mas lalo ko pang binilisan ang takbo ko. A cluster of feet was running, those hideous creatures were following us. We all halted when Master Garet stop, Sky was about to speak when Master Garet suddenly punched the floor of ice.

A brilliant blue light lit up Antarctica, it was a wasteland of white were the darkness don't vanquish. Yet, the sky became clear and even the specks of dusty ice can be seen. The ground began to crack until it finally parted to the other side, our side started to move away from the other half.
