Trione's POV

I never thought that I would see that lady again. Deadly and stone cold. Halos wala nang pinagkaiba ngayon ang magkapatid. I don't know who's the rational one and who will be the reckless lady. I've seen this original version of Nirvana and she was a reaper who handled her kill with care. She leaves no traces and her victims are seldom labeled by the police "missing". On the other hand, I know that the Third Boss have the same rational thinking just like her father. They both value life. What I don't know is if it will work tonight. 

I can't specifically identify who I should fear more. They are like two nuclear bombs already launched coming from opposite directions, one was silently heading to you while the other is screaming danger. Ang isa ay nakangisi, ang kanyang mga mata ay nag aapoy at hindi ko alam kung dahil sa tuwa o dahil sa galit. Ang isa naman ay halos nakakapanlamig ang mga tingin. Parehong mahigpit ang hawak nila sa armas na sa tingin ko ay bigay ng unang boss. Napailing na lamang ako. Magkapatid nga sila. 

"Creepy but fcking awesome." 

Here comes the other one. 

Pinandilatan ko ang batang babae na malawak ang ngiti at bigla na lamang sumulpot at sumabay sa aking paglalakad. Isa pa ito. Mukhang makikisali rin siya sa magkapatid na iyon. 

Nang marating na namin ang basement kung nasaan ang mga myembro ay agad kong pinagbuksan ng pinto ang magkapatid. Sa loob nito ay may mga ilan pang silid. Nasa pinakadulo ang mga myembro. Diretso lang silang pumasok at kitang kita ko ang panalilisik ng mga mata ni Nirvana. Harper was about to enter the room when I blocked her way. Kumunot ang noo ni Harper at nameywang. 

"Get out of my way ethical Vanguard! I want to witness some evil action." pagpupumilit nito. 

Just a few days ago, she looked gloomy and all down. She was blaming herself for the death of the king and queen. Ang akala niya nga ay galit sa kanya ang magkapatid ngunit alam kong hinding hindi iyon mangyayari. Sumunod pang nawala ang unang boss, ang ginoong iniidolo niya. Harper loved the old man and his "awesomeness". And then, my brother. 

Don't think about it, Trione. 

Nang mawala ang aking kapatid ay alam kong labis rin siyang nasaktan. She cried every night and I was there to wipe her tears. But right now, that fragile version of her was gone. Ganoon rin ang mga Sullivano. It was like they gave themselves a week to be vulnerable and defeated. Seven days to feel agony and pain. At ngayon ay tapos na iyon. They are done grieving. What about me? Since then, I was always there to comfort them for I know how much pain they are going through. Hindi ako nagpakita ng kahit anong kahinaan. Hindi ko ipinakitang kahit ako ay nasasaktan. Ako na lamang ang natitira sa aming magkapatid na nandito. We are Vanguards. We vowed to keep them safe. And as much as I want to cry for the death of my brother, I can't.
