Her Powerful Eyes

chapter 3

Allies
~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Tinawag ko si Draven sa labas at pinakita ang bangkay. Ibinigay ko din sa kanya ang letter na nakuha ko.

"Damn! They're moving again!" He reached out for his cellphone at tinawagan sina Maxen at Clark.

While he's on phone, I'm here. Looking scared. Nanginginig ang mga tuhod ko at baka mamaya ay bumigay na rin. Takot ako! Hindi ko kilala yung Hellcat na yun. Hindi ko alam na may mga nagtatangka pala sa buhay ko. Hindi ko alam ang mga nangyayari!

"They'll be here soon. Are you okay? May iba ka pa bang nakita?" He asked. I see concern in his eyes.

"Tell me who is that Hellcat. Tell me! So I can finish him or her or whatever that is! Tell me!" Inalog ko pa ang balikat ni Draven. Naiinis ako. Someone died because of me. Again.

"You don't know Hellcat?" Stupid.

"Magtatanong ba ako kung kilala ko siya?! Umayos ka nga!"

Sumandal siya sa sink na para bang sanay sa mga nangyayari. "Hellcat is the former boss of Mr. Shadow. You know him?"

I nodded. "He's the reason why I have these eyes." I crossed my arms while remembering that scene.

"Mr. Shadow knows about the wrong doings of Hellcat. That time, your father and him are best of friends. So, he asked your father if he can put the Crimson Eyes on you to protect it and he agreed. Noong kinidnap ka ni Mr. Shadow, alam iyon ng parents mo kaya hindi ka nila hinanap." He continued.

"But why me?! Of all the people in these fucking world, why me?!" I asked in frustration.

"You see, the Crimson Eyes is very powerful. But it's not compatible to everyone. It's compatible to you because your father said na nung ginawa ka nila ng mommy mo, gamit niya ang unang pares ng Crimson Eyes. I know it sounds dirty but it's true." He took a deep breath. "May likidong nakalagay sa Crimson Eyes na nagpapalakas ng katawan ng isang tao. Pero iba ang likidong iyon sa likido ng aming mga mata nila Clark. That liquid in the Crimson Eyes, believe it or not, can make your body 500,000 times stronger than ours. For instance, my eyes made my body 400,000 times stronger than the ordinary people, add 500,000 in it. Bale 900,000 times na mas malakas ang katawan mo kaysa sa mga ordinaryong tao." He explained. Pati ba naman sa mata may math parin.

"But why Hellcat wants me?" I asked.

"You see, Hellcat possesses the Pure Black Eyes. As in black lang talaga. Your father gave it to her. That time kasi, Hellcat is used for experiments. When she escaped, she heard about the Crimson Eyes. So, she asked your father to give it to her so she could do some revenge. But that time, the study of the Crimson Eyes is not yet complete. That's why he decided to give her another pair of eyes. Noong oras na matapos na ang operasyon, nakita ni Hellcat na ibang mata ang nakakabit sa kanya. At dahil don, inatake niya ang ama mo. Buti nalang at nandoon si Mr. Shadow kaya napigilan agad si Hellcat. Kinulong nila ito pero agad ding nakatakas at nagtago." Kwento niya.

"Bakit ang tagal niyang nagtago? Diba dapat simula noong nakuha ko ang Crimson Eyes ay hinanap na niya agad ako?" Tanong ko ulit. My mind will explode anytime dahil sa mga informations na ito!

"Sabi ni Mr. Shadow, matagal na nagkulong si Hellcat sa lab niya para makagawa ng tamang gamit na pang tanggal ng Crimson Eyes." Nag-inat muna siya bago magpatuloy. "Habang tumatagal kasi, mas kumakapit ang Crimson Eyes sa gumagamit at nagiging parte na ito ng katawan mo. Kaya dapat tamang gamit ang gagamitin para hindi masira ang Crimson Eyes sa oras na tanggalin ito sayo." He looked at me straight to my eyes.

"If my father has the first pair of the Crimson Eyes, then where is it? Diba dapat ay gamit niya iyon hanggang ngayon?" I'm so confused right now. Hindi ko alam kung maniniwala ba ako o hindi.

"That was just a replica. Ang alam ko ay nasa kanya parin iyon." He answered.

"Wait. Bakit mo nga pala kilala sila dad, Shadow, at Hellcat?" Ang dami na niyang nasabi, ni hindi man lang niya nasabi ang tungkol don.

"We're allies with them. And we encountered Hellcat many times."

"At bakit kayo nandito? Diba dapat nasa headquarters or something like that lang kayo?" They should go back there. Naiistorbo lang ako bwisit.

"Your father ordered the three of us to guard you dahil sa kakayanan namin. You see, we are the strongest Iffers in our clans. Our body is 600,000 times stronger than ordinary people." He yawned. Napagod ata sa pagkwento. "Clark has Golden Eyes, Maxen has Bronze Eyes, and I have these Silver Eyes. Ang buong Clan namin ay magkakaparehas lang ng kulay ng mga mata pero magkakaiba pagdating sa lakas nito."

After he said that, the door opened at niluwa nito sina Maxen at Clark na may kasamang mga police officers.

Lumapit sakin si Maxen. "Are you okay? Sinaktan ka ba nila?" Tanong niya. Concerned huh.

"Nah. Wala na yung pumatay nung makita ko yan."

"Hey, you should go home and talk to your dad. He's waiting for you there." Clark told me. "Bring her home, Draven." At humarap na siya sa mga pulis.

Draven dragged me hanggang sa kotse niya. Hindi na ako lumaban dahil hanggang ngayon, naguguluhan parin ako.

***

Mabilis ang naging byahe namin dahil sa mala-drug racer skills nitong si Draven. Akala ko nga kanina ay lumilipad ang kotse dahil sa bilis ng takbo.

"Sheez! I won't ride in your car again! Para akong masusuka!" Reklamo ko. Nahihilo parin ako kahit na nakahinto na kami.

"HAHAHA look at your face! Wait I should take a picture of this!" This guy is really crazy. Kukunin niya sana ang phone niya pero nakalabas na ako ng kotse niya.

"Hey Empress wait!" He grabbed my hand. Tsansing tong lalaking to ah!

"Stop touching my hand, you freak! Kadiri ka!" Binawi ko ang kamay ko at pinunasan. Kadiri naman kasi!

"Okay, okay. Sorry.... I just can't help touching your hand.."

"Ha? Anong sabi mo?" May sinabi pa siya sa dulo pero hindi ko na narinig dahil pabulong iyon.

"Nothing." He took a deep breath. "Just.. Please.. Protect youself at all cost. I... We're not by your side at all times." At nilagpasan niya ako.

What is he saying?
