Chapter Two: Voyage Until Sundown Part 2 

Lutheia Nicole Alvarez

"So.. where do we stary this voyage?" tamad na sabi ni Azrael "But First.." May kinuha muna siya sa bag at inabot sakin.

"Burger and Mineral Water? Anong gagawin ko dito?" I asked him with a frown on my face. Gusto niya bang bitbitin ko para sa kanya?

"Throw it." He said sarcastically, Then he added "You haven't had lunch yet, have you?"

"May bait ka pa lang tinatago sa katawan." 

"You got me wrong Lutheia" Azrael said while sitting on the bench "I'm bribing you to show me the video you took earlier." 

"Where is the video?" Agad kong inabot sa kanya yung notebook kung saan ko sinulat yung nakalagay sa images.

"My battery ran out but I wrote it before that happened and don't worry I checked that three times." Azrael nodded while flipping the page of the notebook.

'If you got this image before the teachers turned off the projector you are probably one of the obstruction that will hinder us in the future but we already have an idea who you are!'

Go ahead and Find us! Starting from A? or Z? You choose!

Azrael sighed at bigla itong pumunit sa notebook ko para mag sulat ng kung ano ano habang ako naman ay tahimik na kumain ng burger na binigay ni Azrael.

Napaisip ako kung ano bang meron sa A-Z sa Alphabetical Order..

"Twenty-Six...." Mahinang utal ko kaya napatingin sakin si Azrael at nanlaki pa ang mga mata nito "Starting from A to Z! you're a genius Lutheia!" Agad naman itong bumalik sa pag susulat pero wala pang ilang minuto ay natapos na ito.

"Take a look at this Lutheia" pinakita niya sakin ang mga sinulat niya sa kapirasong papel.

Isinulat niya sa taas ang Alphabet at binakudan isa isa ang mga ito.

"Monoalphabetic Substitution Cipher." He said with a grin.

"Relies on a fixed replacement structure and each letter can be encrypted to any symbol or letters" I muttered softly and saw Azrael giving me a look how-did-you-know.

"Don't look at me like that.. Naituro kasi yan ng prof namin dati" wika ko habang nakatingin sa kanya while he just shrugged his shoulders.

"Follow the sound of the pipe?... Reminds me of Pied Piper Of Hamelin" Azrael said. 

A rat-catcher hired by the town to lure rats away with his pipe but when the citizens refuse to pay for this service as promised, he retaliates by using his pipe on their children, leading them away.
