When Zhyieke on the speaker entrust us to Commandment, our eyes are fixed on him. His black tamed hair revealed his forehead. His blue eyes are cold and intimidating. Di ko lang alam kung contact lens ba o totoo. When his eyes rerouted to mine, nag-iwas agad ako ng tingin.
" Ask me everything you want to know about the game, I can feed some of your curiosity," he said in a cold voice.
His presence intimidates me. Hindi ko alam kung bakit.
" Para sa'n ba ang posisyon natin? " RK Damon asked. Itim din ang kulay ng buhok niya, singkit ang mata at nagsusuot ng nerd glasses.
"Naglalaro ba kayo ng chess? " he asked instead of answering.
Umiiling ako. When I notice them looking at me, I realized I'm the only one who's not nodding.
" Alam ko kung ano ang game pero di ako naglalaro," I explained.
" Bishop, Knight, Rook , Queen. We are all human chess pieces ," he said staring at us one by one.
" Pansin ko nga . This table is our arrangement in the board. We are exactly human chess pieces," dugtong ni RR Spongebob. If I were to judge his age based on the wrinkles in his forehead and the sound of his voice, I would say he's 35.
" Kung ganun , bakit walang mga pawns? " - Damon.
Just as he asked, the women in green coats approached and gave us a rectangular white box.
Binuksan ko naman agad yun dahil sa curiosity.
" White pawns? " nagtatakang tanong ko kay Commandment nang makita ang laman nito, still not meeting his gaze.
" Yes. That's your life count as officials. The moment our game officially starts, danger will be chasing us. Kung di nyo na kayang makalabas sa panganib, you have to ' BET YOUR PAWNS' as a request for help."
" Paano ? " asked Zeus. May kakulutan ang itim niyang buhok at kahit na naka mask, pansin ko pa rin ang scar sa gilid ng left eye niya.
Every scar has a story. I can't deny my curiosity as I look at it.
" Just turn the head of your pawn. When you hear three ticks from it, that means your request has been sent."
" Wala bang mga tao na pawns? ang boring naman pag ito lang ," - Spongebob.
" We will have two months of training before the game starts. After the training, pipili kayo ng tatlong players na hindi kasali sa top 6. They will be your human pawns. Pag wala na kayong metal pawns, you can bet your human pawns as well or they can bet themselves as a sacrifice for the team."
Sacrifice for the team? Just how dangerous could this game be?
" What will happen to those human pawns that we bet? " sabat ng Left Bishop na si Sasuke. Singkit din ang mga mata niya. Those eyes are passive and it's naughtiness can't hide from me.
" They will be eliminated. They will forget about Code Game and live their normal lives again."
" Ano ang mangyayari kung wala na kaming pawns?" tanong ni RB Gusion.
It took him a while before he answers.
" You will be eliminated."
Then that means we will forget about Code Game and live normally again.
Parang ang hirap ipasok ng mga information sa isang utak lang. I felt my fear screaming.
" Kung chess nga 'to , that means there's a black clan and we're against them, tama ba? " - RK Damon
