Casualties

Malcolm Seph

When Kayla begged for their lives, it made me weak. Naibaba ko ang mga hawak kong baril at nilingon ang aking kapatid at si Morgan. Mukhang tulad ko'y naapektuhan rin sila ng mga sinabi ni Kayla.

It's funny how she made me realize that I was wrong. Naalala ko si Astrid. Now I understand why she thinks that I'm a monster. Why she thinks that vampires are monsters. It is because it's so easy for us to do these things without remorse.

Napaluhod si Kayla sa sahig. Agad siyang dinaluhan ni Vasil. Nag angat siya ng tingin sa amin.

"Dadalhin ko siya sa kanyang kwarto" paalam niya at wala na akong ibang masabi kundi ang tumango na lamang.

Vasil carried her at mukhang nabigla siya roon, "My parents?"

Nilingon ko si Clad at nakita kong inaayos niya na ang mag asawa.

Mr and Mrs Summers stood up and went upstairs, na sinundan ni Vasil buhat buhat si Kayla.

"I instructed them to sleep. Pagkagising nila ay hindi nila maaalala ang pangyayaring ito" ani Clad ng mapag isa kaming tatlo

"I crossed the line" I said

"Yeah, you did" segunda naman ni Morgan

"At hindi niyo ako pinigilan" akusa ko sa dalawa.

"However, it was very unusual of you to act like that Malcolm" kibit balikat ni Morgan

Kumunot ang noo ko, "Anong ibig mong sabihin?"

"It was just an observation" aniya saka seryoso akong tinitigan, "Just be very careful, Malcolm. Para kang nawawala sa sarili mo"

"It's Rocco" ani Clad, "You have barely any lives left, he's slowly taking over"

Ikinabigla ko ang sinabi ni Clad. With two lives left, Rocco's restraints inside my body loosened. And this abled him to appear in my mind and act as me, without me being conscious about it.

Hindi ko alam pero agad kong ikinagalit ang posiblidad na ito.

"I won't let him! I am the master of my own body. At hindi si Rocco" hindi kailanman maagaw ni Rocco ang katawan ko!

"Astrid Turner is gone and now you're slowly fading away too"

"I won't fade away. Not until I find Astrid"

"Well what are we going to do with that witch?"

"We have to apologize" suhestiyon ni Clad

"That will come later. Ang mahalaga ngayon ay magawa niya ang location spell para mahanap natin si Astrid" iyon ang pinakamahalaga para sa akin ngayon.

"I'll check on her"

"You may upset her more, Clad" paalala ni Morgan sa aking kapatid. Dahil doon ay natigilan siya sa paghakbang

"Go, Clad. She may not admit it but she needs you" I encouraged him. Tinanguan niya ako at pumanhik na sa taas

"You are not playing cupid, are you?" Tanong ni Morgan

Umiling ako, "I'm just helping my brother. I don't want him to suffer from guilt anymore. He doesn't deserve it. He did not even meant for it to happen"

"But he made it happen. And people was hurt because of what he did, Malcolm"

"It was an accident"

"May mga nasaktan at nasasaktan. Whether it was an accident or not, there are casualties, Malcolm"
