Maya maya lang, narating na namin yung pathway na dinaanan namin papasok dito sa lugar na to. We continued our pace until we finally reached its end. Doon, nakita namin si Master Alfina na nananatiling nakatayo sa pwestong pinuntahan nya bago kami pumasok.
"Are you happy now? I bled." Sarkastikong bungad ni bella. Nakaramdam na naman ako ng tensyon. Jusko.. kailangan ba talaga laging masungit tong bella na to?
"Don't worry Stacey, sanay na ko sa ugali nya. You should be, as well." May ngiting baling sakin ni Master Alfina. I frowned.
Teka, di ko naman tiningnan mata nya ah? Bat nababasa nya nasa utak ko? Tiningnan tuloy ako ng masama ni bella..
"I am so happy about your teamwork. You have kept my words before I let you enter the forest. Good job." She continued and clapped her hands. Walang sumabay sakanya kaya naman I awkwardly clapped my hands over Red's neck kahit medyo mahirap. Nakipalakpak na lang ako kahit hindi ko talaga alam yung words daw na sinabi nya kanina..
"You will be needing teamwork for the ExhiMatch. Nakakabilib kayo because I am supposed to guide you through brain communication I have input to all of you but you didn't let me and surpass the challenge with all of your will. I am just.. i'm just so proud of you." Malawak na ngiting sabi nya while doing some hand gestures.
I smiled back at her awkwardly. Ewan ko, wala manlang kasi akong naitulong kanina tapos ako pa tong pabigat at bitbit pa ni Red sa likod. Tama naman si bella kanina eh.. dapat sya ang pasan ni Red at hindi ako dahil grabeng apoy ang nilabas kanina ni bella. Eh ako? Wala naman akong Natulong dun..
"May I ask how did you manage to identify the off spot of the ice monster, stacey?"
Napatingin ako sakanya then blinked. Bella turn her heels and eyed me. I gulped.
"U-uh, k-kasi narinig at nakita ko kung pano yung tubig sa hangin higupin nung icy belt na nakapalibot sa ice monster.." mahinang sagot ko.
"Yun lang ba ang kayang gawin ng grip mo? Hear something from distant? That's boring."
"Bella. Stop."
I bowed my head after Red. Eto na naman.. nahihiya na naman ang buong loob ko.
"I can summon the intactum projecta--"
"--which you cannot control properly. Yeah, and so? You and your grip are still boring and useless."
"Bella I said stop!"
Bella turned her gaze to her brother and show no emotions at all. Sarap hampasin ni Red. Bat kasi nagsalita pa.. mas nakakatakot si bella kapag walang emosyon eh hays.
"What did you learned in this hands on dueling?" Master Alfina asked, changing the subject.
None of us answered. Ano nga bang natutunan ko dun?
"There are two ways to defeat your enemy. It's either you kill them or destroy their grip."
"Kill them is the easiest one." Bella interrupted master Alfina.
My eyes widen at her statement. Napakabrutal naman nito..
"Not everytime, bella. Nakita mo naman kanina kung paano kayo nagsayang ni Red ng grip thinking na mapapatay nyo ang ice monster gamit yon." Nakangiting sabi ni Master Alfina. I nod as an agreement.
"I can kill the person controlling the grip. And as far as I know, the grip will be useless when the gripton is dead." Bella answered back quickly. I tilted my head a little.
Oo nga, may point sya. Pero grabe naman kasi yung papatayin ha. Ambata bata pa namin para sa murder..
"Alright then, let's consider your favorite attack, to kill. But what if the gripton is possessing the time grip in which he is able to stop the time?"
