A/N: I'm sorry for the late update. I was a gonner for weeks. I had a mental breakdown and felt down. Tulad nga ng sinabi ko noon. I am still new and not really confident about my stories.

So here's your update. Keep safe and God bless everyone. Enjoy reading!

ERINA

The barrier's cracked. The laestrygonian—a man eating giant— keeps on pounding it. He uses boulders if not his own fist.

Walang ng mga camper sa lugar na iyon. Deserted and empty.

Just looking at it made me shiver in my spine. Sana kayanin ng boses ko ang isang ito.

"Oh brother."

"Anak din pala ni Poseidon ang isang ito."

"Wala akong kapatid na cannibal."

"Tinawag mo siyang brother."

Nagsasagutan si Kaito at Gareth sa likod ko. Our necks are craned to see the giant's face. He looks at us directly, specifically kay Kaito.

"Attack it when I raise my left hand," nilingon ko sila, "Got it?"

"Got it."

"Sure."

Bumuntong hininga ako bago nagconcentrate sa bibigkasing salita. I cleared my head. I need to focus on this command. Handa na din ang mga sandata nila.

I connected with it through eye contact.

"Aphrodi—"

"YIELD GIANT!"

I feel my voice resonated to the whole camp. A surging power I did not know I can release.

Napaluhod sa isang tuhod ang higante. Lumindol sa pwestong binagsakan niya. The land created a fissure around his knees.

I raise my left hand and they start to attack.

Nanghina ako dahil sa ginawa ko. I keep holding the command while they attack side by side. The giant flails his hands but they keep dodging it.

Narinig ko ang pagungol ng isang leon  malayo sa amin.

"A bad day to walk your pet!" Gareth slashed the giant's arm. Humiwalay ito sa balikat while Kaito hits a tree.

"Kaito!"

"Release him from your command!" he said.

Namumutla na siguro ako, "Hindi pwede!"

"You'll die using your life force."

"No!"

Puro putik ang kalahati ng kagawan ni Gareth, "Guys mamaya na kayo mag-away."

The giant looks angrier. Who cares? Sisirain naman niya ang camp namin.

"Here comes the missing pet!" Gareth jested.

The nemean lion chases the Fournier twins. May dugo ang labi ng leon. Ganoon din ang dalawa. Lalo na si Soleil. Small scratches are on her face and arms.

Dalawang hippogriff ang lumilipad sa ibabawa namin. That caught the attention of the giant. Arrows from two campers on their back flies towards his shoulders and stomach.

I shoot the Soliel and Lunox a look.

"Big bad kitty!" ani ni Soleil.

They fend it off my direction. I can't let the command off this giant. I will hold it—
