Celestial Academy: Silver Eyed

Chapter 21

Just as you requested, this chapter is dedicated to you :).

***

I shut my eyes close and willed myself to stay calm. I was breathing hard, panting and noticed myself trembling. When my breathing was back to normal and felt myself close to being calm, my fear and anxiety suddenly turned to frustration and anger. Why am I feeling like this?! It was just an aura---- his aura for pete's sake! I haven't even seen him face to face and here I am almost cowering in fear.

Anger coursed through my veins when I suddenly remembered what they've done, they've caused the war, they've killed a lot of innocent people! And it was his father that killed my parents. I had dreamt killing him, but how can I even kill him when his mere aura made me tremble? Was he that powerful? then again, I remembered the grudge I was holding for years. I couldn't just let this chance slip away.

"Guys?! Ano ba talagang nangyayari sa inyo?!"

Then it dawned on me. We felt him because he was just nearby! He was at the vicinity. He's fucking inside the Academy! He might be spying right now, or . . . or killing people . . . or abducting, torturing and whatever horrible things he could possibly do! I immediately stood up from the thought of it. A sudden feeling of protectiveness coursed through me. I'm also a student of this Academy, moreover a silver eyed and I need to protect everyone.

Tinignan ko sila ng seryoso and I'm glad na mukhang nahimasmasan narin sina Jessica at Nathan.

"Thalia, Clarisse, Laurence and Lawrence, you should scatter and protect everyone at all cost! Jessica, cast a protection spell or something to ward off enemies, Nathan and I will deal with him." My voice almost wavered but I did my best to sound firm as possibly as I could muster.

There was a look of confusion on their expressions. "Kanina pa kami nagtatanong kung anong nangyayari! Bakit?! Anong meron?!" Clarisse asked and others nodded in agreement.

"Wala ng oras! Let's go Nathan!" I looked at Jessica and I saw her nod and I'm glad she understood it.

Tumalikod na ako at tumakbo palabas, tracking the aura we felt.

"I'll explain on the way, but we should really go now." was the last thing I heard from Jessica before we exited the restaurant.

I was running, frantically searching almost everywhere that I almost lost Nathan following behind me. I had a mixed of emotions, fear, anxiety, anger, resentment, and almost everything all at once!

The aura we felt grew stronger as we run. It only means we're near him. We run and run and run until we reached the park. Nanlalaki ang mata ko ng makarating kami sa park, siguradong sigurado akong dito ko naramdaman ang aura na 'yun!

The park was crowded, it was full of people that finding someone in particular would be really difficult. Pinagmasdan ko ang paligid, it was just like an ordinary day, people walking while laughing and conversing with one another, children running and playing, families bonding with each other, fairies flying effortlessly and carelessly.
