Deception

zwei

We went to the lockers and I saw how much blood came out of my eyes. Maybe because I haven't been sleeping these days, I've been spending my free time in the dome to prepare for this class.

"Raion, what's happening?"

"It's normal." I tried to assure her but my voice is shaking sa tingin ko ay hindi siya maniniwala.

"Nothing's normal, your eyes are bleeding, that can't be normal."

"It is, now let's go back." I think I'm gonna faint, my vision's getting bad because of the blood covering my eyeballs.

"Let's go to the infirmary."

"No, never, ayoko Cris."

"Pero paano yung klase sa pe? Every class is graded, alam mo yun."

"I'll take this class like this. Bawas points ang late."

"Be sure you'll be fine."

"I will always be fine." I looked at the sink and washed my face. Blood's not gushing anymore.

Pumasok kami sa gym at nakita ako ni Rowan.

"Hey, Raion? Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I am." now that you're here, I am.

May narinig akong pumito at nakita ko ang teacher namin sa PE. Si Miss Credence, she has blonde hair and grey eyes.

"Good afternoon, students." She looked at me and smiled. "First time meeting you, Raion." she's a mind reader, Bruce told me before and unlike us, she has 2 powers, mind reading and extraordinary strength.

"I see why you weren't surprised." tinignan niya si Bruce na nasa gilid ko lang.

"Sorry nemen hahahahaha." He made pa-cute and then pouted.

"Class, we'll begin evaluating your progress for this week and as for Miss Raion, I'll evaluate her untouched power."

"Let's start with Rowan, don't blow up the gym again okay?" she laughed and smiled at Rowan. He seems cool about it.

"1...2...3, start!" Rowan started cooling off and his hands started glowing and a ball of light started growing, slowly as if he's trying so hard to control it's growth. He's trying so hard.

He lifted the ball and kicked it like a soccer ball. But he caught it before it caused a mess.

"Very good Rowan, you're learning."

"Raion Angst. I've been informed na kailangan nating lahat ng earplugs before we test you." she handed me earplugs, " I believe na kailangan mo rin."

"Thank you." I guess ako na yung sunod?

"Yes, Raion, 1...2...3, start!" sinuot ko yung earplugs and shouted. I saw how confused they were.

I saw how loud my shout was, shit, I don't know why I shouted so loud but I need to go on, grades ko, I need to be a scholar.

I moved the sounds and stomped. A large explosion happened, natamaan ako and tumalsik ako sa kabilang side ng gym, shit, wrong fck.

I stood up, feeling my eyes bleeding again. Nakita ko sila, may mga nasaktan din, may mga barriers yung iba, and yung gym, fuck, actually really fucked up.

I removed my earplugs. Shit, wrong move, Raion, bwisit bakit lagi akong minamalas?

"Raion Angst." Miss Credence paused for a like a minute, she sighed and said "High Security." SHIT NO FUCK NO NO.

"MISS! NO PLEASE. I AM SORRY."

"Sorry, it's for the safety of everyone, even you. Class, PE will be postponed, see you next week."

I fell on the floor.

Bakit ayaw kong mabilang sa high security? There is something mysterious about high security you know and, I know what it is.

"Raion! Shit, are you okay?" Cris looked me in the eyes.

"Physically, yes." halata mo ang lungkot sa mata ni Cris, kahit siya ayaw niya maging part ng high security.

"C-Cris." tears fell alongside the blood flowing from my eyes.

"It will be okay, Raion. Nothing will happen to you."

"Cris and I will take care of you." Rowan smiled bitterly.

"Please, get me out here."

"We can't." and that's the bitter truth.

High security, what mystery, why am I gonna be part of this stupidity? Being a soldier for this school was never what I wanted to be. I don't want to fight, steal, or kill.
