Nickel's POV

I'm on my way to my dorm, when suddenly I heard someone playing a piano. Hangang ngayon ay palaisipan parin sakin kung sino ang tumututog gayong dis oras na ng gabi. I look at on the abandoned building. Alam kong doon nanggagaling ang tunog na yon. Whoever she or he is, I really admire the way he/she play. I was mesmerized.

I didn't bother to check out, dahil baka kung ano ang makita ko doon. Today im officially one of the Student Councils on Elysium academy, at dahil doon magkakaroon ako ng paraan para malaman ang nakaraan ko. I also meet Nica, but don't get me wrong. I don't have a feeling for her; she's a friend of mine. I just like how she's getting pissed and Boron seems jealous because of me. What a complicated love.

The next morning, naglalakad ako patungo sa first class ko, when suddenly a girl bumped me.

"Are you ok?" I said while picking her books.

To my surprise, she's just stared at me straightly. She seems not hurt.

"A—ah, I'm sorry... H—here's your books" I stammered.

She's just picked her book then leave. I sighed, why she's always like that. She's always ignoring me. Oh not just me. Lahat yata ng tao sa paligid nya ay di nya nakikita.

I know her; she's one of my classmates.

I totally ignored by her. Kaya pumunta nalang ako sa class ko. I find myself looking at her. She's not paying attention to Mrs. Rodriquez, as usual kung hindi sya nagbabasa ay natutulog sya but worst ay tulala lang sya na nakatingin sa bintana. Sometimes I wondered if what her past life is. Gusto kong malaman kung ganyan din sya sa nakaraang buhay nya.

"Stop thinking about her Nickel "I said to myself.

After class, agad naman akong pumunta sa Student Council room may meeting kami about sa Field Trip.

"Hey Nica~" I said when I see Nica on the sofa. She seems worried about something? Not her typical mood. A hyper Nica I know.

" Tss. Pwede ba Nick, Not now" She rolled her eyes.

"Uh,oh Sorry" I answered.

I knew it, about siguro kay Boron kaya sya nagkakaganyan. Eto naman kasi si Nica ayaw pang umamin eh, si Boron din isa pang tanga.

"Good morning!" A girl said. She has a patch written "Secretary" on her uniform I don't know her personally but I often seeing her with Mr. President.

"You're late Argon" Mr. President says.

"Relax Kryp. She's with me. May pinagusapan lang kami" Xenon smirked.

"Tss, I don't care" Krypton replied. Oh, I smell something fishy.

"As Student Council Officers we need to be aware of what happening on our school. Dahil dumadalas ang mga studyante na nawawala sa hindi malaman na dahilan" Krypton said.

" Pero sino naman ang gagawa ng ganon?" Boron puzzled.

"Black Dragon Organization" Krypton replied.

Argon's POV

I was totally shocked, when Krypton says Black dragon Organization, Alam kong alam nya na. ang pagkawala ng mga studyante ng Elysium Academy. Hindi legal ang pagpatay dito. Kaya naman mahigipit na pinagbabawal ang pagpatay.

"Black D—Dragon what?" Chlorie said

" Ang Black Dragon Organization ay grupo ng mga nagaalasa sa Elysium Academy at ganon na din sa Student Councils. Gusto nilang sakupin ang pamamahala ng Elysium Academy kaya naman sinasagawa nila ng pagpatay ng kapwa nila studyante" Xenon explained.

" Kapwa? Ibigsabihin ay studyante din sila dito sa Elysium Academy?" sabi naman ni Nickel, the new member of Student Councils.

Pansin ko ang pagkagulat sa mga mata nya. Pero unti unti ding nawala.

"Right Nickel, sila ay isa sa mga studyante ng Elysium Academy, worst maaaring kaklase o kaibigan mo ang isa sa kanila" paliwanag naman ni Boron

Biglang kumabog ang dibdib ko. paano kung isa sa amin ay miyembro ng Black Dragon hindi na nakakapagtaka dahil nalaman nila ang paraan kung paano pumatay.

"Sino ang mga pinupuntirya nila?" tanong ulit ni Nickel. He seems uneasy. Pawisan na s'ya.

"Kadalasan ay sa liblib na lugar sila pumupunta, at ang mga nagiisang studyante ang puntirya" sagot ni Xenon.

"Paano naman nila nalaman kung paano pumatay sa Elysium Academy, We all know na hindi basta basta ang pagpatay dito" tanong naman ni Boron

"Maybe one of the members of Student Council is a traitor" Krypton blurted out

I smirked, he's really are smart. Alam kong alam nya na kung sino ang traydor sa grupo.

"What!, Pero sino!?" gulat na tanong naman ni Arsenica.

Lahat sila ay nagulat maliban nalang kay Xenon at Krypton.

"Sorry, pero kailangan ko nang umalis" sabi ni Nickel at nagmamadaling tumakbo. Hahabulin sana sya ni Xenon nang pigilan sya ni Krypton.

"By the way, fieldtrip will be moving on next week, Monday" Krypton said before turning back to his desk.

Nickel's POV

Hindi ko alam kung bakit ako tumakbo papunta sa abandoned building. Kung tama nga ang sinabi nila Krypton maaaring nasa panganib ang pianist. Kailangan ko syang makilala. Whoever he/she is, kailangan ko syang balaan.

The door was locked. Hindi ko pwedeng sirain ang pintuan.

I have no choice, the pianist is trapped like a rat in a cage, hindi nya gugustuhing makita ng tao kung ganon.

Kinuha ko ang lumang tela at pinalupot sa katawan ko, I entered on the next room beside on the pianist room. Kung hindi ko man sya makausap. Mas mabuti na kung makilala ko manlang sya para balaan.

Tinali ko sa rehas ang tela na nakadugtong sa katawan ko, kung sakali na malaglag ako ay may tali ako sa katawan.

I sighed before I jumped on the walls near on the room. Doon ako tutungtong para makalapit ako sa bintana ng pianist. sa ganong paraan ay makikita ko kung sino sya.

Dahan dahan at sukat na sukat ang bawat hakbang ko. Biglang umihip ang hangin, kasabay nito ang pagtangay ng puting kurtina sa kabilang kuwarto.

"A girl?" I murmured, dahil sa pag ihip ng hangin ay nakita ko ang mahabang buhok ng babae na nakaupo sa harap ng lumang piano. Nakita ko kung paano sya gumalaw, kaya naman dahil sa gulat ay nabitawan ko ang hawak ko sa rehas ng bintana.

Shit, I can't reach the window's grates. Konti nalang ay tuluyan na akong malalaglag sa 5th story building. Hindi maaari wala na kong lakas para tagalan pa ang paghawak ng isa kong kamay.

When unexpectedly a girl showed and holds my hands.

"You idiot, my hands are precious. Don't make me use them for something like this." The girl said directly in my eyes.

I shocked for the moment I saw her.

"Titania?"

I shocked, she's Titania Flores, She always looks upset, and when she's not, she's sleeping or reading. The girl who always ignored anyone around her, she has her own world.

"It was you? It was you who was playing the piano, Titania?" I said directly with her almond eyes.

Her hand, touching mine for the first time, was nothing like I'd imagined.

Large, tough...

And covered in calluses...
