Chapter Thiry-One: Nicole
.
Dawn
"Are you sure you want to do this my child?" Tanong saakin ng reyna, or ng lola ko, tumango ako.
Yes, I talked to them about it. Matagal na nilang alam na hindi totoo si Winter, na-shook nga si Winter nang sinabi nila.
Guess she didn't expect that they weren't idiots.
"As in really sure? Doing this'll ignite the war." Sabi din ng ha—ni lolo. I have to get used to calling them that...
"Yes po and mas mabuti nang tayo ang mauna kaysa sa tayo ang atakihin." Sagot ko.
"We know that it is your fate to lead this war and defeat the king, but as your grandparents, mahirap ka'ng pakawalan, you won't be safe."
"Alam ko po, pero wag po kayong mag-alala. I can handle it, kasama ko din po si Rave."
Nakitaan ko sila ng sign of relief ng banggitin ko ang pangalan ni Rave. Ang laki ng tiwala nila kay Rave.
"Sige. Just stay by his side, he'll keep you safe." Sabi nila. Tumango ako at nagpaalam na.
Sabi nga ni ate Cole, ilang oras lang ang itatagal niya.
"When do we leave?" Tanong ni Winter—no, ni Salia, that's her real name, Salia Somaria. Suh-li-yah.
"We leave in a few minutes." Sagot ko.
She's been folowing me, as in nasa tabi ko lang siya madalas. Either she's cooking up something new or she had a change of heart.
I believe na she had a change of heart, though impossible, but then there's always that high possibility of she doing this just to get my trust and eventually she'll betray me.
Pero mas gusto ko yung unang choice.
Ilang saglit lang ay dumating na si Rave, kaya nag-teleport na kami sa isang store na malapit sa may dungeon.
"Ready?" Tanong ni Rave, tumango ako, "Yes."
"One? Dawn? Winter?"
"Anong ginagawa niyo?"
Patay.
Nakita kami nila Serene.
Kapag nagkataon nga naman.
"Date." Sabi ni Rave.
Ah? Maniniwala sila doon?
"Kasama niyo si Winter?" Tanong ni Frau.
Nagkatinginan kaming tatlo, "Fine you caught us. Papunta kami sa isang dungeon." Sabi ni Rave.
"Sama?" Tanong ni Drian. Tiningnan ko si Rave.
There's a reason kung bakit kaming tatlo lang, yun ay dahil mas malaki ang chance na mahuli kami kapag kasama ang mga chosen, pati sila Ericka.
"Fine. We won't, mag kwento nalang kayo mamaya." Sabi ni Angelian. Napansin siguro nila na matagal kaming natahimik.
"Pero—" Angal ni David, pero hinatak na siya ni Serene paalis.
Lumapit saakin si Angelian at may inabot na papel.
"Be safe, punitin mo yan kapag na-punta kayo sa panganib." Bulong niya saakin at umalis na din habang hatak yung iba na ayaw pa'ng umalis.
Nang mawala na sila sa paningin namin ay pinagpatuloy namin ang plano na mag-sneak in sa loob.
"This way." Sabi ni Salia. Sumunod naman kami ni Rave.
'Why are we following her again?' Tanong niya saakin through telepathy.
