Chapter 10: Back
Someone's POV
"Great show. Congrats" bungad sa akin ng babaeng nakahood din but with a gray color . She's holding wine on her right hand. Kararating ko pa lang sa silid pero heto sila sa kanilang mga upuan. Sitting pretty like a queen. Sabagay, our chairs were personally designed for us. May nakaukit dito na korona na sakto lang sa tapat ng ulo na uupo.
"TY, Mare" sagot ko at naupo din sa isa pang upuan na laan sa akin.
"Yeah, You surprised them but we have a more surprising jack." singit naman ng babaeng nakahood din but with a dark blue color. She's also sitting in her chair with an engraved crown too na nakaikot ang aming upuan sa isang mesa.
"Spill it, Ripper." I seriously commanded. Jack or jacks means news for us. At kung mas nakakasurpresa itos a ginawa ko, then this jack must be too significant.
"Hmmm, how should we start it?" Pilyang simula nito sa akin. She really knows me kapag nabibitin ako sa sinasabi ng tao. Pero mukhang nakaka;imutan niya na maigsi lang din ang pasensya ko.
"Die." Imbes na matakot siya ay natawa lang din siya kabilang si Mare. Nasasanay na sila sa ugali kong ito simula nang maiwan kami. I'm not like this. I used to be calm when she's always here.
"Once upon a time, there's a lady who made a gang which composed of four girls as members. But as the climax of the story goes, a tragic accident happened and she ran away from her group which left the three girls with no clues. But like a thunder, one news flash and saying 'A girl with a Black Hood had come in a Battleground." I almost choked while sipping my wine. Simula pa lang ng istorya ay alam kong kami ang tinutukoy niya. Pero ang huling linya niya, hindi ko iyon inaasahan.
"Ooops. Before you react. One more thing, the most important news-- She saved a gangster. The oh so famous Grave King."
"Fck! Kailan nangyari yan?" tanong ko sa kanya. I even smashed my wine glass in the table upon hearing that name.
"Just a while ago Satan. The news is not impossible to spread easily in the underground site. Mare read it from a legit account." Bahagya kong nahilot ang aking sentido sa narinig. Sana pala hindi na lang ako nakipagkatuwaan sa isang pekeng gangster which claiming herself as the Bloody E. Pero bakit siya lumihis sa kanyang plano? Hindi na siya makakapagtago pa ngayon mula sa mga humahabol sa kanya. At lalong hindi na siya makatago din sa amin.
"Ladies, We must go with Bloody E."
"Iyon lang ang hinihintay namin mula sayo Satan." masayang sabi ni Mare sa akin. Ripper is also smiling while holding her glass. Alam na alam ko na ang mga pumapasok sa utak nila.
I guess, It's showtime.
