We walked down to the narrow corridor and enter in a big door colored with red paint. I felt my heart raced the moment I saw the blackened room. Sobrang dilim, parang dun sa variation room. Baka dalawang malalaking ahas na ang nandito? I shiver involuntarily at the thought. Jusko naman, sana walang ganun dito..

"Here is the Class A dueling room, Stacey. This is exclusively for among of us only. I as your master, and you three as my students." She started making hand movements in the air and noticed na parehas yun ng ginawa ni Clarence to light up the variation room. Siguro kailangan ko nang aralin yung ganun..

But instead of blue rays that must be lighting the whole place after those hand movements, a silver thick mist swirl around among all of us instead. It gives white rays that lights up the whole room. Una munang umikot yun kay Master Alfina na nasa tabi ko. A loud crack followed making me jump intensely, naramdaman ko ang malakas na pagkabog ng puso ko. In a blink of an eye, Master Alfina suddenly had gone out of my sight after the loud crack. I automatically roam my eyes around the dark place and saw the twins standing next to me. Nasan na si Master Alfina..

I was mesmerized looking at the thick silver mist as it goes to Bella and started swirling around her. Just like what happened to Master Alfina, she too, vanished after a loud crack.

"Hold my hand. Be ready." Red immediately commanded looking at the silver mist crawling slowly in the air. Mabilis ko namang sinunod ang utos nya at hinawakan ang kamay nya.

I bit my lip as I stand beside Red while holding his hand tightly. Kinakabahan naman ako, ano ba, hindi nakakatulong ang hawak ko sa kamay nya. Mas lalo lang akong ninenerbyos.

Ano na naman, kabaliwan na naman.. jusko jusko..

I almost screamed when the loud crack echoed around us. Nakaramdam ako ng malakas na hampas sa tyan ko making me feel nauseated in an instance. Shades of green and red immerge around us like a fading image speeding wildly. Mabilis akong nakaramdam ng hilo and almost loose my grip on Red's hand but he holds it tightly and I decided to close my eyes thinking it will soothe the pain in my head.

Moments later, I felt my feet touched a soft ground. Para akong matutumba and was not opening my eyes yet, nakaalalay sakin si Red. He's holding both of my arms.

"I decided to be with her. It's her first time." Red said behind me. I opened my eyes as he finishes his statement and release his grip on my shoulder.

My jaw drops as I roam my eyes around the whole place. Large and tall pine trees stood everywhere my eyes can reach and snow continuously falls under the grayish sky. What the fuck.. nasan ako..?

"This will hurt a bit, hold on." Ma'am Alfina suddenly said.

Right after hearing her voice, my head started to crack in pain. Parang mabibiyak ang ulo ko sa sobrang sakit. I can also feel something inside my brain na parang may kumakalikot na ewan. Then in a quick second the pain suddenly gone out.

"I have just enhanced the capacity of my grip around the three of you so that I can control your mind and hear your thoughts. We are about to start the training."

"In this fucking place? You're definitely killing us."

Napatingin ako kay Bella. She's crouching down holding his head. U-umuusok ang buong katawan nya. Napalingon din ako kay Red. He looks pale too and thin smoke vaporing from his body as well. I take a gulp and glance at my arms. Nakahinga naman ako ng maluwag nung hindi ako umuusok.

"You need to survive. Remember that Leanne from Class P is an ice gripton. Pwede nyang gamitin yon sa Exhigriptonial Matchup at yon ang maging dahilan para matalo kayo." Master Alfina explained in a matter-of-fact tone. Nakita ko ang paghulma ng maliit na ngiti sa labi nya bago sya umalis sa harap namin at pumwesto sa gilid katabi ng isang pine tree. Napakunot ang noo ko sa inakto nya. Ginagawa nya?
