CHAPTER 24 EXPLOSION

Ackley and Mary Jhone came out at the same time when they heard a loud explosion. the thick smoke greeted them.

everyone is in turmoil. everyone came out because of the loud noise heard. others are still shouting and pushing just to peek at the source of the smoke.

Ackley and Mary Jhone looked at each other.

"I'll take care of it" in a flash the smoke suddenly disappeared. Mary Jhone looked at Ackley in shock.

"ikaw ba ang may gawa non?" Mary Jhone asked incredulously. Ackley nodded slightly.

sabay silang tumakbo papunta sa pinagmumulan ng makapal na usok

they overtook a white car upside down. some parts of it were flattened and the mirrors were shattered. there was also a blood stain on the floor.

"tumawag kayo ng ambulansya"

"may tao sa loob"

"nakakaawa naman"

"babae ang nasa loob. madali kayo at tumawag ng tulong. humihinga pa sya" sigaw ng isang lalaki na naglakas loob na lumapit sa sasakyan. tumulong din ang iba para siraina ng pinto ng kotse pero kahit madami na sila ay hindi nila magawa. sumilip si Mary Jhone sa sasakyan.

That woman

mahaba ang buhok nito at nakasuot ng dress

"nakakaawa naman sya noh?" he whispered to Ackley. he looked at her seriously.

"oh bakit?" Mary Jhone asked.

"something is wrong" Ackley frowned as he looked at her frown as well.

" anong mali?"she asked again.

"that's what i need to find out. stay here. i just have to do something" though she's confused, she still nodded. he quickly turn around and walk away

Mary Jhone quickly returned her gaze to the blood-stained woman. its face can no longer be recognized by the amount of blood wrapped around it.

the commotion continued and soon the ambulance arrived with the police.

pinalayo ng mga pulis ang mga tao sa sasakyan.

they helped to get the woman out of the car. others were distracted by the blood coming out of the woman's body. Mary Jhone frowned as she looked at the woman

'she is familiar'

she tried to looked at the woman's face but she still couldn't recognize her. she sighed and decided to go home. it's just a simple

accident.....maybe

"gaudeo in occursum adventus tui numen omnium" this is the last word the woman left before she lost consciousness.

'nice to meet you, dear princess'

she stared in shock at the woman. she is the woman who warned her about being bullied on her second day in school. the woman who dragged her.

she knew me. she knew about me, being a heir.

Mary Jhone whispered on herself. maybe she's a part of Naturaleza.

hanggang makauwi ang mga kuya nya sa bahay nila ay hindi parin sya makapaniwala. kanina nya pa hinihintay si Ackley para ipaalam ang nanagyari pero hindi pa ito bumabalik.

"kakain na bunso" tawag sa kanya ng kuya Joe nya.

"opo kuya susunod ako"ngumiti sya ng matamis sa kuya nya. ngumiti naman ito pabalik bago naglakad patungo sa kusina nila.
