Lone Star

Prologue

I am scared of what's happening around me. I thought I could finally do it but I was wrong. I--I promised them I would give them freedom. I promised them I would take their home back but it's hard. I thought I have the power to fulfill those promises. I never thought they can be this strong. 

"Retreat!"

"Umatras na muna tayo. The demons are coming"

"The ruler's 12 knights are coming too!" 

"Estella, let's go!"

I heard someone called my name but my attention was fully on the creatures flying towards us. Shooting incredible magic at us resulting to explosions and death. Monsters were also swarming towards our frontline. 

Kanina pa ako pagod at hindi ko na kaya pang makipaglaban. I am already at my limit and I can't go much further. 

"What's wrong Estella, you were so eager and determined awhile ago" He smirked at me. He looks like he is mocking me and I am really pissed. But my annoyance won't do me any favor right now. We are losing and I don't think we can turn the tables. 

Curse him! I thought I could trust him. I'll kill him when I have a chance. I will kill him if I am given another chance at life! Not just him but all of them! 

Dahil sa pagod ay napaupo nalang ako sa lupa. "Estella! Huwag na muna ngayon! Tumayo ka, umalis tayo!" 

As much as I wanted to but I can't. I saw him walk towards me with a smile crept on his face. That smile irritates me because he's telling us like they already have the victory. Napahiyaw ako sa sakit nang pwersahan niyang hinawakan ang buhok para tumungin sa kanya. Napatingala ako at binigyan ko siya ng masamang tingin. 

" Kawawa ka naman. Kung sana ay sa amin ka pumanig hindi ka sana aabot sa puntong ito" aniya. 

"I would rather die!" I bravely said. That's all I could do right now. To be brave in front of the person whom I know that would eventually take my life.

But--- I can't die right now. I still need to avenge her. I still need to avenge them. They took away the life I should have been living. I just can't give it up. 

Divine Enchantresses  I cried. 

"I never thought I would see you cry right now! It looks fabulous in my eyes!" he said. 

Tumulo na ang luha ko at lihim na nagdasal. 

Please Divine Enchantresses! Help me!

"Pero walang magagawa ang mga luha mo ngayon Estella. Salamat sa mga alaala" wika niya at kinuha ang punyal niya. That dagger, one of those weapon who took the life of my people. 

"Curse you! Punyeta ka! Tandaan mo ito! Hinding hindi kayo mananalo!" I shouted in front of his face. Pero hindi iyon umepekto sa kanya. 

Muli niyang pwenersa ang buhok ko at mas inilipit pa sa mukha niya. " But we are already winning" 

Ipinuwesto na niya ang punyal sa ibabaw. Shit.

Someone! Help me!

"Goodbye" He whispered. 

Naipikit ko nalang ang mga mata ko. I don't want to greet death right now. I don't want to die. I want to live. 

Help me!

"Please! Grant my wish! Someone please help us!" I shouted. 

And the next thing I knew a bright portal appeared in the sky and I saw them. 

Angels! They came to help?

I close my eyes and hope they would end this war.
