Her Point of View:

Dafuq, nasaan ako? Bakit ako nandito?

Litong lito ang isipan ko ngayon. In just a blink of an eye, nasa ibang lugar na ako. I don't know what they did pero natatakot ako sa mga pwedeng mangyari sa akin. I am in my most vulnerable state. Disorganized ang thoughts ko ngayon at hindi ko na alam kung saan ibabaling ang isip ko. Bakit ako nandito? Anong kailangan nila sa akin?

Unexplained emotions hovered around my head as I continue to fall. Literally.

Natatakot ako, at unusual sa akin ang ma-intimidate ng ganito. The cold wind only adds fuel to my anxiety. That tingling feeling na kadalasan kong nararamdaman kapag kinakabahan ako masyado. Something pangs on my chest and causes me distortion for a minute or two and then stops.

Then darkness enveloped around me... this feeling. Yung feeling na na-corner ka na sa wakas. I hate being surrounded. I hate being cornered. Ano ba ang ginagawa ko dito? Gusto ko nang umuwi.

"Huy!"

Napadilat ako bigla nang may mga kamay ang umalog sa akin. I looked up and saw a handsome man looking down at me. Nakakunot ang noo niya, "Buti naman at gising ka na. Mukhang malubha ang epekto ng First Skill ni Klev. You fainted pagkaapak na pagkaapak mo pa lang dito."

Then narinig kong may nagreklamo, "Hoy Miko, narinig ko yun!" At nagroll eyes lang yung lalakeng nasa harapan ko. So his name is Miko? Lumingon ako sa paligid. Where am I?

Nasa gitna kami ng gubat. At wala akong makikitang kung ano mang building dito. This place seems isolated.

"I see that you had the school's pendant." He was looking at me, but then I realized it was my neck he was looking at. I reached for it and felt the stinging cold metal circling my whole neck. What's this?

Naguguluhan ako. Papaano ako may suot na necklace? Sa pagkakaalam ko wala ito dito kanina. And I don't even remember myself owning one. Because first of all, I am not a fan of necklaces.

"Looks like a Rapiere found you." Napapatango niyang sambit, "And gave you a necklace."

Naguguluhan akong tumingin sa kanya, "Rapiere?" Ngayon ko lang narinig ang bagay na iyan ah.

"Rapieres rarely appear. They only show themselves to those who are worth of showing." Page-explain niya, "And they also had an ability of summoning students, depende kung may nase-sense silang something interesting sa kanila. Like you."

Kumunot ang noo ko at tinuro ang sarili, "So you mean they found something interesting in me?"

He looked at me and then to the necklace I am wearing, "Honestly speaking, yes. They did found something in you so they decided to summon you. May necklace ka ng nag-recruit sa iyo so be thankful."

Thankful? Hindi ko alam kung saang parte ng sinabi niya na dapat akong maging thankful. Na-expelled ako sa school ko, nawalan ako ng matitirhan, at ngayon andito ako sa isang lugar na kahit ako ay walang katiting na ideya kung papaano at bakit ako nandito.

"Then who are you? Bakit niyo ako kinakausap?" I mumbled.

"I'm Miko and we are also students. See this?" Tapos may ipinakita siya sa akin sa may bandang balikat niya. A tattoo na AU in bold letters. "My recruiter gave me this. She came out from nowhere and shot me with her pistol na napag-alaman kong Tattoo Generator pala niya." Sabi niya at itinago muli ang balikat matapos niyang i-expose ito. "And she's a damn Rapiere. Ang sakit ng proseso niya dahil idinaan niya talaga sa pamamaril." Sabi niya.
