Chapter 2 - Leighton High

After what happened in the canteen, I decided to roam around the grounds of the school since I never even once got the chance to wander its premises.

Kulang pa ang isang araw sa paglibot dito. Let me describe what it looks like.

The Leighton High is not just an ordinary school for students. Itong school na 'to ay tumatanggap lamang ng mga barumbadong studyante. Yung mga gangsters, bitches, spoiled brats, jerks, sluts... lahat ng studyanteng di kaaya-aya ang mga ugali.

Yeah, it's very creepy.

I don't why I was enrolled in this kind of school. I do admit that I'm a badass and a bitch back then. But not as worse as today.

Leighton High. A big school with 7 big buildings and a big hectares of land. Napakalaki ng pitong building na'to. The first and second building is for the classrooms of 1st year and 2nd year students, The third and fourth is for 3rd year and 4th year students. One strange thing is that they don't have elementary level here. The fifth is for the libraries, labs, faculty, main canteen(every building has a canteen) etchetera.

The sixth and seventh is for the dormitories Of course girls and boys are seperated. I forgot to mention that Leighton High is a boarding school. Alam ko, may isa pang building dito pero iilan lang ang nakakapunta doon. It is authorized. Sometimes I wonder what it looks like but I heard it is very huge. Oh well, As if I care.

May mga matitinong tao rin naman dito pero mabibilang mo lang. Sabi nila 'cover' lang daw yun para hindi mahalata ng government na puro mga barumbadong studyante lang ang tinatanggap dito. I feel pity to the students na matitino. How unlucky their life is. Stuck in this school. Pero ang alam ko libre lahat sakanila. Including foods, financial, and others. There's still little 'luck' in their life.

Di ko alam kung ilang hectares 'tong school na 'to. Sobrang lawak at may gubat pa. Pumunta nalang ako sa gubat. Di ko pa 'to napupuntahan so might as well discover what's inside. Naglakad lakad lang ako. Medyo napapalayo na ako sa dati kong pinasukan. Pero patuloy pa rin akong maglakad.

I don't know if it was just my instinct or someone is really following me. I can sense it. I'm not a vampire or someone who has a ridiculous superpowers. I just use my instincts often.

Inignore ko nalang yun. Habang papalapit ako, parang may mga matang nakatingin sakin. This forest is something. Nang may natatanaw na ako, bigla namang may humila sakin at tinakpan ang bibig ko. May nilagay silang perfume sa panyo and I know na pampatulog yun. Bago pa ako tuluyang mawalan ng malay, may narinig akong boses ng lalaki.

“We finally found her.” pagkarinig na pagkarinig ko ng salitang yun, everything went black.

Hours later...

Ang sakit ng ulo ko. What the heck. Parang binibiyak. I'm already awake. Pero hindi ko pa mabuksan ang mata ko. It seems like all my energy was drained. Nanghihina ang buong katawan ko. Wala namang masakit or something but I feel like I'm very very tired. Habang hindi pa mulat ang mata ko, May naririnig akong nag-uusap, malapit lang sakin. Who are they?! Are they the ones who kidnapped me?

“What kind of drug?” una kong narinig yung lalaki na medyo sexy yung tono ng boses. Very manly.

Okay. Why am I saying this kind of things? They kidnapped me. Poor me.

“Yung drug na ginamit sakanya, hindi basta basta mawawala. It's like a poison. If you drink it, you'll feel like you're whole body has been paralyzed. All your energy will be drained. And it has side effect too. You'll feel a lot of pain in your head as if someone's trying to claw on your brain.” sagot naman nung isang lalaki. Sa tono ng boses niya, I'm guessing he's at the middle age.
