Memories of Dark and Ruins (Halifax Series II) {Complete}

Chapter 44

I sliced and swung the blade and my enemies fell. Natagalan ako sa pagtalo kay Oro dahil wala akong sandata. But after I killed him using my elements, I took his swords and used it.

One man charged at me raising his sword and shouting his battle cry. I was able to counter the attack but after I stabbed him on the chest, napaluhod ako sa pagod.

Damn it! My energy is decreasing.

When three men attacked me together, puro sandata na ang ginamit ko pangsangga dahil wala na akong lakas para gamatin ang kapangyarihan ko.

Habang nakakulong dito, I have heard them talk about attacking the Kingdom and villages. And now that Tori found their hideout, they will start their attacks earlier than planned. And I need to be there once it happens. I need to secure the Palace, save the townsmen, protect the villages from destruction, defeat the rebellion and so on. But I can't do all of that alone. I need help. But I don't know which soldier to trust except for my loyal men, Han, Kyle, Bason and their team. But ten men cannot defeat a whole army.

Two soldiers sneaked from behind and they attacked me at the same time. I easily dodged them, twisted my blade and cut their heads off.

Once I killed all of them, I surveyed the cave searching for Tori. Kanina pa ako hindi mapakali kakaisip sa kaniya. Yes she's a Blue Blood pero sa ibang lugar siya lumaki and she still doesn't know how to use her power. It was evident nang magulat siya noong nagflash ako habang hawak siya.

I can't help but worry. Paano kung may masamang mangyari sa kaniya? Fae heals but not as quickly as werewolves. Paano kong nasugatan siya sa critical spot? It would slow her down and our enemies can easily get to her!

After surveying the area, I finally saw her figure across the place. She looks enchanting as she control wave after wave of water around her. Her hair is flying everywhere and her figure is glowing.

Something warm started moving to my heart at the sight of her holding her ground in the battlefield. Napakagat ako ng labi at bahagyang napailing. I can't believe I'm freaking turn on in the midst of war. This is unbelievable. Noon nga hindi ako nagkakaganito kahit nasa loob ng bar. Tapos pagdating sa kaniya... Hell. He can make me hot even when I'm facing death.

Reluctantly, I looked away from Tori when a set of men charged. They encircled me, blocking every direction to escape and also blocking my view of Victoria.

They attacked all together, kicking slicing and stabbing. It's hard to dodge their attacks dahil marami sila at nakapalibot pa. Gripping my second blade, ginamit ko itong panangga habang ang isa ay pang-atake.

I cut their numbers in half, maneuvering my way behind the last remaining three. I swiftly cut their hands and their blades fell the same time their cry echoed. I was out of breath the moment I defeat them all.

The place is swirling with fire and smoke. Filled with cries and blood. Explosion after explosion shook the ground, every enemy cold on the floor rattled lifelessly along.

I was about to look for Tori again when the cave shook because of the loudest shriek I have ever heard. It echoed throughout the whole place and it made my legs tremble. Napaluhod ako sa panghihina. With bloody hands, I clapped my ears trying to obstruct the noise but failing.

The voice is not normal. The echo it makes pierced inside my head. Poking every tender spot in my skull, cracking the remaining hope I have. It waters the fear I buried, the noise made me see the hollowness of everything. It welcomes death with a warm laugh. Sa sobrang sakit ng ulo ko, I closed my eyes and gripped my head tight.

It felt like forever but once the shriek stopped, agad akong tumayo kahit na nahihirapan. I stumbled due to my trembling legs but I immediately look for Tori, Maya and Aira. I need to keep them safe!
