Silver Gravity

Vanadium's boasting with her new wooden furnitures. As if maiingit ako. Ang babaw nun at hindi importante para mainggit ako. I had to go in the class alone since her mother called her. They weren't really in a good relationship but she's still her mother.

I sighed and bought a sandwich and a bottle of cold americano at mag-isang kumain sa cafeteria. She's taking longer than what I've thought. But not my business to care.

I scrolled on the school forum through my phone and took my time in the cafeteria. I have vacant for an hour after lunch kaya pwede kong i-extend ang lunch ko.

Obviously, they're the topic as well as the tournament to find the new Queen, the Queenstrial. May nakalagay din ng mga listahan kung sino ang naka-submit na. Dalawang araw pa lang bago ma announce ay meron ng nag submit. As of now, there are already six girls. Two are college and four are in the same are as me.

They want to grab this opportunity to be one of the rulers. Plus, they probably want Zyscher to like them or have a chance to be his girl. As if. That guy's heart is like a rock. Madalang lang siyang makita dito but he's always stern and cold. Their aura is intimidating but his is the most. Besides, I doubt he moved on from Alesiana.

He's already on his 2nd year at college and everyone's talking about how smart he is. He should be, he's a King.

De la Fontaine's Monarch is led by him. Along with Shemis Daustremn, the Princess. Nihko Hyres, the prince and Giebrelle Audin Lercoz and Damien Roguisx as the duchess and duke. They stick together as they also grew up together. Deep friendship does exist in this chaotic world after all.

When I arrived at the class, Vana's already there, sulking. She had a fight with her mom, eh? Hindi ko na siya inistorbo and focused on the class.

Nagpaalam siya kaagad sa akin na magpapahinga na daw siya while I stopped in the library to get some books. It's almost 6 ng lumabas ako ng library.

The campus is already quiet. Kumunot ang noo ko at napatigil sa paglalakad. No, it's too quiet. Wala pang isang segundo ay my tumama na na shuriken sa akin. Instead of my face, tumama ito sa libro na ginamit kong pang protekta sa sarili. I hid behind the wall until I heard footsteps running away.

I wasn't the target. They just probably threw it to someone but missed.

I followed where they ran to and stilled when we arrived at the forest at the back of the school. I hid behind the bushes and I camouflaged with the dark place since I'm wearing black outfit. There are 7 guys wearing their black outfits and masks that I could see from the light coming from the moon. I couldn't see the person that they're cornering since nakatalikod ito but I'm pretty sure that it's a girl. Assassins. How the hell did they manage to enter here?

They're all with their sharp weapons and I can see the girl holding her katana. She looked weak right now while they're fighting. What? Should I help or not?

I cursed myself as I saw her fall down on her knees. Sino ba to? She can't even fight that strong. Halos untugin ko ang sarili ko when I ran to stop the assassins from stabbing her brutally. The branch that I took were in pieces because of their knives.

"Go away" I said, guarding the girl. They started attacking me trying to not make a noise. Fuck! Arghhh! Bat ba ako nakisali dito!

I threw my books at them saka tumalon to kick one of them. I punched the other one hard as I try to dodge their attacks. Uminit ang ulo ko ng makitang sira sira na yung mga libro. Ibabalik ko pa ang mga yan!
