A.S.B Academy

Chapter 8: The Nightmare 2

They went downstairs. Looked to the left then to the right, passed the corridor and ran for the gate. Marc saw their driver waiting him. He went with haste and hopped on the car. He waved his hands to his friend and run the car.

Still Marc remains silent. He look outside the window and examined the place. He can't imagine all the things that had happen to him in that school in just single days.

His mind was crowded by many questions about Jelo. Though they were not that close enough of Jelo, but, he cares a lot for him. He still can't believe that his nightmare would be that Jelo is missing.

A young boy, asking for alms, caught his attention. Pity pierces his heart and immediately gave him food and a smile shown on boy's face.

He glad watching the boy talking his fellow children what he has done. He waved his hand when the boy pointed him and immediately run the car.

It took 30 minutes to reach their house in Manila. He immediately went inside the house and consult with his room, upstairs. Change his clothes and went downstairs. His mom, preparing a food in the kitchen, caught his attention.

"How's your first day?" His mom said without looking at him

"It's a quite tiring day. There are a lot of things that had happen. I'm pretty sure you're not going to believe if I tell you what had happen." He said when he reached the chair and leaned

"Let's talk about it, then." His mom answered when she puts the food in front of him

"Are you sure? It's quite unbelievable. Everything happened in just a single day and I don't know how." He said while spooning the food and taste

"Yeah, what is it, then?"

"Hmp. I was late right? Someone helped me, no, not someone either."

"What do you mean?" His mom curiously asks and sat beside him

"There's a voice that helped me found my room and also helped me answered the random of questions of my classmates when we had a group works."

"Really? That's amazing, isn't it?"

"Yeah, and many more things that had happen that I could not explained how it was done."

"Like what?"

"Like I collapse when I heard someone is calling my name and many more that I couldn't explain."

"You collapsed!?" His mom touched his forehead

"Yeah, but, I'm okay now." He assured as he willed his hands on his mother's hand

"Okay, you need to take your dinner and take a rest."

"Okay, then. By the way, where's dad?"

"He's on his office, together with our new business partner, they having an agreement."

"Oh... Okay," He said and finished his meal and went upstairs

He opened the computer and typed on the key board; A.S.B Academy. No result history found instead a short video clip appeared. He clicked and watched. A horrible sound makes him cover his ears.

The screen went blank and a name Thirfa written in blood appeared. He felt a cold bite his spine and could feel every hair stand on its tip.

The screen scroll down and a picture of a woman in white with her dress filled with blood and her insect's hands appeared.

"It was year 6661 B.C.E when the great tribulation in the land of Asylum taken place." He reads the caption of, below the picture next to the woman, a picture of a ruined city.
