Unknown Lady

Kabanata 16

A/N: Since school year is coming, I can't tell when will be my next updates again. This will be hard for me but, I'll try my best to make a chapter for Unknown Lady in the midst of answering a module. Lol.

Have a great day! Expect a lot of typographical and grammatical errors. I'm fine with constructive criticsm.

"So, what's next?" tanong ni Alexilia at umupo sa pang-isahang sofa.

Kasalukuyan silang nasa headquarters kasama sina Skeira at Raide. Kauuwi lang nila mula sa belle jardin.

"Skeira, Raide," tawag ni Hero sa dalawa na kaagad na lumingon sa kaniya.

"We need your help to breakthrough a curse."

Kumunot ang noo ni Raide at nagtatakang itinuro ang sarili. "Bakit kasama ako?"

"We need full force," ani Alexilia.

"Huh?" Nagkatinginan sina Skeira at Raide, kapwa nanghihingi ng sagot.

"Me and Hero have a problem. It's about mate and the unknown lady."

"Oh?" aniya ni Raide at sumandal sa kinauupuan.

"Yes," sagot ni Zevious. "We need to know the vampire's history and the other creatures too. Something is wrong about this mating."

Nangalumbaba si Raide at pinakatitigan ang tatlong bampirang kaibigan. "What are we going to do?"

"Find the history first," wika ni Alexilia. "I heard that our race are cursed by a witch. I wonder, who's witch?"

"And how about the unknown lady? Hero's mate?"

"My father said that the unknown lady only show herself once a vampire found its real mate."

"She shown herself to us, and that was the time we heard your beating heart," ani Raide.

Tumango-tango si Alexilia. "Yes. Probably, she's saying Hero already found her mate."

Bumaling si Skeira kay Alexilia. "And that's her. The unknown lady is your mate," baling niya naman kay Hero. "How about your bond with Xilia?"

"That's our problem," Zevious interfere. "Something is up with our beloveds." And he gazed at Skeira. "Remember when I told you my heart beats?"

"Oh!" Skeira snapped and even flicked her fingers. "Yes! Yes! We were at the top of...what is that again?" she suddenly looks confused, "basta nasa tuktok tayo ng building! Then—"

Zeviois cutted her off. "Then, my heart beats and I told you that. But, you said you didn't hear it."

Alexilia rolled her eyes while Raide chuckled. "Of course, she's a witch. Not a vampire," they both said in unison.

"Okay, let's jot down everything," Raide said after a minute of silence and stood up from his seat. And everyone just watch him went to the small white board and get a white board market. "First, the mystery of the Unknown Lady," he said and wrote it on the board, he even write 'unknown lady' in capslock.

"Who is she? What is she? And...what's her role?" he murmured as he write it on the white board.

"I didn't know you're this smart," Zevious said and Raide snorted at him.

"Shh!" Alexilia and Skeira hushed them two.

"Next..." Hero shortly response.

"Next is...the curse," Raide continued. "What's the curse? Who made the curse? What's the purpose of it?"
