Author's POV
"Ah!"
"Ow!!"
"Ouch!"
"Aray!!!"
Iba't ibang exclamation ang maririnig ng isa-isang tinapon sa iisang kwarto ang apart na tao. Para silang basurang itinapon sa basurahan.
"Hoy ikaw lalake ka! Hindi ka ba lalake ha?! Ba't mo ba ako sinasaktan?! Walang hiya ka! Walang hiya!!" bigla nalang sumigaw si Arix habang naka-upo pa run sa sahig at nakatingin sa lalaking nagtapon sa kanya na nasa pinto.
Naka-itim into na suit na may suot pang black shades. Ang buhok nitong nakaharang sa forehead nya ay dahilan para hindi masyadong makita ang buong mukha nito. Bigla na lamang umupo any lalake sa harap ni Arix. Nag-ayos naman ng upo ang tatlo pang tao sa loob habang hinihintay ang gagawin ng lalake. Ngumisi ang lalake tsaka ito nagsalita.
"Scream all you want, get wild all you want, no matter what you do you are not getting out of here. Whatever you do, it would be futile."
Ang tanging sinabi ng lalake tska ito tumayo at lumabas ng kwarto.
*Slam!!*
"Okay... Nagdugo ilong ko did to ba," parang walang narinig si Arix at walang kahit na anong takot ang makikita sa mukha nya. Inikot nya ang mga mata nya sa paligid tsaka nya napansin ang tatlong taong nasa loon. Maliban sa kanila ay nakapalibot sa kanila ang itim na pader at ang maliit na bintana na hindi mo maabot kahit anong gawin mo.
"Shit!!" a curse was heard that made them all look at its source. Nick is standing in the corner with a furrowed brow, his hands are on his hip with a frowning lips.
"Hoy among sheet? Nakakulong na nga tayo dito naghahanap ka pa nang papel? Okay ka lang?" ang sabi ni Arix habang tumayo ito at humarap Kay Nick. With his scary face, Nick said...
"Who are you? And what the hell are you talking about?"
"Hindi mo ba naiiintindihan? Ang sabi ko, ba't ka naghahanap ng papel?" sabat naman in Arix.
"Can you speak in Engilsh? I can't understand you," bigla na lamang lumapit si Arix sa harap ni Nick tsaka ito taas noong hinarap ang lalake.
Nang makita nyang hanggang balikat lamang sya nang lalake ay itinaas in Arix ang heel nya. Ngunit kahit ganoon ay hanggang jaw lang ang naabot nya. She just frowned at the sight and decided to just sit in from of Nick while the latter gave her a peculiar gaze.
"Wiil you two stop arguing? We're stock in this place so can we just get along?" isang bose's naman ang nagpahinto sa kanilamg dalawa.
Nakatayo ngayon si Ryu sa gitna nang nag-aaway habang nakapameywang. Nasa gilid naman so Ai U na naka-upo na hawak ang binti sa dalawang braso nito. Lumayo naman sins Arix at Nick sa isa't isa tsaka humarap kay Ryu.
"Okay so what's the plan?" biglang tanong ni Nick tsaka rin sa umupo sa sahig.
"Well, first thing's first, we all have to speak in English," said Ryu.
"Okay," they both agreed.
"Uhmm, I actually have a plan," napalingon naman silang lahat sa kanina pa walang imik na so Ai U.
~Approximately 12 hours later~
*Boom!!! Boom!! Boom!*
"Hoy!!! Hoy!!! Tabang!! Tabang!!" sunod-sunod na sinuntok, sinipa, sinuntok, sinipa at sinuntok ulit ang pinto ng kwarto.
"Hoy!! Buksan nyo to!!" sigaw nya pa. Bigla namang bumukas ang butas na nasa pinto at iniluwa ang isang singkit na mata.
"What?!" sigaw nito.
"Yung babae, nahimatay!! Dali-dali!!" naghy-hysterical na sabi ni Arix habang tinuturo ang nakahigang so Ai U habang pinapay-payan ito ni Ryu.
Nang makita ito ng gwardya ay dali-dali nitong binuksan ang pinto. Ganoon pa rin ang nadatnan nya nung pumasok sya pero isang matigas na bagay ang humampas sa batok nya na dahilan ng pagtumba nito. Nakatayo sa gilid si Nick na seryosong nakatingin sa naka-higang lalake. Hawak-hawak nya ang pulang heels na nasa paa ni Arix kani-kanina lamang.
"Yes!! Come on," sabi naman ni Arix tsaka nya kinuha ang heels nya na nasa kamay ni Nick. Tumayo naman sina Ai U at Ryu mula sa sahig.
Maingat namang kinuha ni Nick ang baril na nasa katawan ng gwardyang nahimatay at isa-isa silang umalis ng kwarto at ni-lock ito mula sa labas.
Dahan-dahang humakbang ang apat papunta sa isang madilim na hallway. Nang makarating sila sa dulo ay isang pinto ang sumalubong sa kanila. Nang pinihit ito ni Nick tsaka naman sila may narinig na boses. Nagkatinginan ang apat habang bumilis ang mga tibok ng puso nila. Makikita mo na rin ang maliliit na butil ng pawis sa noo ni Ryu.
"Don't you know? I won 500 000 Yuan in a racing event and I'm certain that the challenge would pose no threat at all," with a haughty attitude, one of the men said as he opened the door. They both entered and closed the door.
"Really? But, aren't you afraid that the boss would find out?" the other man said cautiously. He looked like a fellow who just entered the world of dark side.
"Uh!! ---" Before the other man could say anything in response to his colleague, Arix skillfully fall above the man's head as she hit him with his heels at the nape. Nick then also appeared behind the second man as he hit him with a gun he stole earlier.
"Hoo! That was close," exclaimed by Arix as Ryu and Ai U walk out of the dark part of the hallway.
They made use of the hallway's darkness to hide themselves as Arix climb the walls and Nick hide behind the door. Ryu then signaled that they should get going and they did. Hehe before that, they drag the two men and imprison them at the room they got thrown to.
They cautiously opened the door as a blinding light enveloped them all. When the light subsided, they saw the living room with some sleeping guys. They had their guns at their side as they sleep soundly.
"Hehe, hey guys, I have an idea," Arix whispered as a wide smile can be seen at her face as she looked at the sleeping hoodlums.
