More Than That -A Deadly Ending

Photo 14

The car stopped on an abandoned house near the campus. Atat na lumabas si Linda ng Honda City saka tumakbo papasok ng bahay.

Si Khourt naman ay mabilis  na sumunod rito.

Khourt saw Linda standing, staring at something. Lumapit siya para malaman kung ano yun. And there were, Beth, holding a knife on Kira's throat. Kira is sitting on a chair, his hands and legs tied with a rope.

She gasped. Holy syet! This is freaking insane!

Maya-maya pa ay nagsalita si Linda."Beth wait! Please don't do this, you don't understand the situation", the journalist pleaded.

Si Beth, curly hair, matangkad at makurba ang katawan. Maliit ang ilong at malalaki ang mga mata. Para itong china doll na makikita mong benebenta sa bangketa.

But her cuteness turned to a killer doll. Nakakatakot.

"No Linda, your the one who don't understand the situation." sabi ni Beth kapagkwan.

"A-anong ibig mong sabihin?" tanong ni Linda.

Sa pagkakataong iyon ay nakapagsalita si Kira. "Beth's inlove with you Linda",

"You shut up!", saway ni Beth. Mas diniinan pa nito ang hawak na kutsilyo sa leeg ng lalaki.

"No!"

"No!"

Sabay siyang napasigaw at si Linda.

"Beth, anong ibig sabihin nito?", hindi makapaniwalang tanong ng journalist. Khourt could sense a lot of tension between the three.

Linda, teary eyed and confused brows, Beth, shaking hand on the knife to end a man's life and Kira sweating like rain with a knife on his throat.

Now Beth's face become less scary. Finding the words to answer seems difficult for her.

"C-can't you see Linda? I am always there for you, kahit kinukutya ka ng lahat nandiyan ako mula pa ng freshmen tayo, pinasali kita sa club, pinagtanggol kita sa mga professors at mga classmates natin and all your family problems, nandoon ako pero ano? Pinagpalit mo'ko sa pesteng gangster na ito!"

Beth is a psycho, I need to find a way

Habang walang katapusang pagpapalabas ng hinanakit si Beth ay kumilos na si Khourt para mailigtas si Kira.

Umalis siya mula sa kinatatayuan at lumabas ng bahay, doon siya dadaan sa likod ng pintuan para makakuha siya ng magandang pagkakataon na sunggaban si Beth.

She slowly opened the kitchen door. Aha! Sakto nga ang napuntahan niya. Nasa likod siya nina Beth at Kira. Nakapartisyon pagitan sa kanila ang isang mataas na cabinet kaya pwede siyang magtago.

The china doll keep on talking, and so is Linda.

Sumandal siya sa cabinet and take a long deep breath. Kaya niya kaya? Anong plano niya? Anong gagawin niya? Pero sa bawat oras na lumilipas ay lumalala ang sitwasyon.

A loud shout was heard from Linda's mouth. She can't stop Beth from doing it.

"No! Beth please. Magkaibigan tayo. Please don't do this.", pagmamakaawa nito.

"Hah! Kaibigan? is that it? you never gave me a chance to love you, instead, you threw yourself over to Kira, pwe!" spitting on Kira who's now can't talk because of a little slit marked on his throat. Red thick blood flows down on his neck.

"I'm gonna kill him like you killed me Linda!", the doll raised the knife to stab Kira.

Instinctly,Khourt ran to Beth and pulled her hand holding the knife.

"W-what are you doing?!", asik ni Beth sa kanya.

"I'm trying to stop you to do something you'll regret after", sagot niya.

Sa pag-aagaw nila ng kutsilyo ay nasipa nila si Kira. Natumba ito. Linda quickly rescued and untie him. Blood still runs on his neck.

Khourt pull the doll's hand hard but Beth pull harder. Pareho lang silang babae pero bakit dehado siya? Puno ng lakas na inikot niya ang kamay nila.

"You bitch! huwag mo akong subukan!", sigaw ng doll at sinipa siya.

Khourt fell down.

Beth turned to Linda and Kira. "Now for you gangster! You die!", creepy expression was seen on Beth's face. Para itong manikang sinaniban ng demonyo at handang mamatay.

"No Beth please, please", the journalist is crying for mercy. Kira is now unconscious, lying on Linda's legs. They can't move nor flee from the killer doll.

Oh syet! I need to do something.

Kahit nasaktan ang sinipang paa ni Khourt pinilit niyang tumayo. She needs to save Linda and Kira. They are helpless. They are fighting for their love. And their love is precious. Hindi siya makakapayag na masayang iyon dahil lamang sa isang psycho lesbian na hindi makakaintindi ng word na "let go".

The doll threw Linda away from Kira. "I'm gonna finish this. Die Kira!"

When Beth's about to stab Kira, Khourt suddenly blocked her own body. She closed her eyes and felt something sharp hit her.

Natumba siya. Her sorroundings became blurry in her sight. She heard Linda shouting and crying. Pinilit niyang tumayo ngunit nanginginig ang mga paa niyang gawin iyon. Unti-unti na ring pumipikit ang mga mata niya. She fight for it yet she lost. But before she entirely left unconscious, Khourt saw someone enter the door and ran towards them.

Francis?
