Alpha's P.O.V

Okay. Hindi ko na talaga maintindihan kung bakit nandito kami nila Chummy and Chloe sa bahay ni Chummy at nasa harapan namin tung dalawang Animalia.

Yung isa ay nagpakilala bilang Hushy at yung isa naman ay si Sergio raw.

And dito rin namin nalaman na may kapangyarihan rin tong si Hushy.

He could detect danger and powers. He could also raise the dead which is pretty handy.

And dito naman sa tabi niya ay ang dead.

"So if you could cone with us, then that'd be pretty great!" Ani ni Chloe.

Kanina pa siya nag-eexplain kung bakit daw sila sasama amin.

"So basically I'm cursed because of a prophecy?"

Tanong ni Hushy.

"Yes."

"Well in that case ay sasama kami." Paga-agree neto sabay thumbs up.

"Okay, in that case we should be heading fast."

"Teka lang," pagpigil ni Chummy.

"Why is that?" I asked at her.

She looks brightly pretty this time, her long blonde hair swayed as her long shirt above her knee is the only thing covering her whole self-being.

She have this so petite appearance that it could literally make you want you to take her home right away.

Her eyes are dazzling blue, and her eyes meeting mine.

I looked down to her luscious skin that makes you want to leave a mark in it.

Her nose isn't high bridged but it looks like it's the most precious thing you could see.

I looked down and met her lips...

It's like a ripe red apple.

It's beautiful...

And tempting...

It makes me want to kiss it...

Kiss it...

Kiss it...

Kiss it...

Kiss it...

Kiss it...

Kiss it...

Kiss it...

Kiss it...

Kiss it...

Kiss it...

"Huy! Wala na si Chummy sa harapan mo! Ba't ka pa nakatulala dyaan?" I heard Chloe's voice.

Then I saw her in front of me.

"H-Hah?" I am So confused, what's going on?

"Ang sabi ko ay wala na si Chummy sa harapan mo, kanina ka pa nakatulala." She explained briefly.

"Ah! Oo, napaisip lang ako kung anong susuotin ko bukas." Pag-iinarte ko.

"Kanina pa rin kita naririnig na paulit-ulit na ibinubulong ang Kiss her. Achuchu." Naka-poker face na saad niya.

Takte. Wala na akong kawala! Pambihira, sinabi ko yon? Shemay, Ba't ako naging bastos?! Ka-uri ko lang si Chummy, hindi ko siya crush!

Crush...

Crush...

Crush...

Crush...

Crush...

Crush...

Crush...

Cru— Teka! Anooo?!

(A/N- Ayiee, Alpha! Crush mo si Chummy?)

Alpha, Huwag ka ngang epal Author! Baka mapagkamalan pa ako niyan eh!

(A/N- Fine! Deny it all you like, basta pagdating ng ilang chapters malalaman lang natin yang tinatago mo)

Arghh! Oo na! Hindi ko crush ha?! Cute lang siya!

Gano'on!

"Haay nako, iiwan na talaga namin ikaw, Mahal na Prinsepe" Narinig kong ani ni Chummy na may pagka-irita sa tono.

Napatingin naman ako at nakita ko siya kasama sila Chloe, Hushy at Sergio na palabas ng pintuan at ako parin ang hinihintay nila.

Kasi.

Nakatayo.

Lang.

Ako.

Na.

Parang.

Tanga.

Then there I realised at dinigest ng utak ko kung anong nangyari, kaya ayun.

Pumunta ako patungo sa direksyon nila.

"Finally you chose to join us so shall we go?" Tanong ni Chummy sa akin kaya napatango ako.

Naglalakad kami and nasa unahan ko sila Chloe and Chummy at para silang masayang nag-uusap.

Nasa likod naman rin sila Sergio at Hushy.

But all I could see in this moment is how Chummy would sway her hands.

It makes me want to touch it.

(A/N: Ano ba naman yan Alpha, Torpe ka pala?)

Shut up Jairah! Hindi ako torpe! At bakit ka ba nan-ngingi alam sa crush life ng iba?

(A/N: Oo na. Huwag ka nang magalit kasi di ka torpe. Hindi na nga ako mangingi-alam sa crush life mo kaya Chill!)

Napa-roll naman ako ng eyes kay Author kahit alam kong hindi ko siya nakikita.

But then all I could see in this moment is her hands, I didn't dare to say anything but I carefully swayed the back of my hands to her hands, at first she didn't notice but then looking at how nervous I am I tried to act and locked it into mines.

And if magtatanong siya, iraradon ko na malubak-lubak ang dinadaanan at kung madapa siya mas matatagalan kami. Ganon!

Nagulat rin naman si Chummy pero hindi naman siya nagtanong. All she ever did was stare at our interwined hands.

And the next thing I knew is that she was walking with me.

I saw in my peripheral vision that Chloe started walking more slowly than Chummy and we are now both walking and leading the group.

Chloe's P.O.V

Anong nangyari?

Lina-langgam na ata ako ne'to.

Kung nagtatanong kayo kung nasaan na yung kausaap ko ay, nasa harapan ko siya.

May ka-holding hands siyang Prinsepe.

Naa-out of place ako kasi mukhang nerbyoso  pa nga tong dalawa sa harap ko. Imbes na kinilig ako, parang hindi kasi wala ring nagsalita sa kanila. Pero kung ako ang tatanungin ay nakakatuwa silang tignan.

Pero hindi pang style ng couple na nakakatuwa, ha?

Yung parang style ng ama na hinahawakan ang kamay ng anak para di matumba.

(A/N: I know right?! I share mo ang nakita mo mamaya sa GC, ha?)

Okay, Author! Pero sa totoo lang ay kulang nalang talaga ay mag-make-up session dito sa harapan.

Willing ako mag-video para sa kanila.

Ngunit, Alam ko naman ang meaning sa word na Privacy.

Mga ilang minuto ay may naririnig kaming mga sigawan sa bayan. Since nasa pinaka-kagubatan located ang bahay ni Lola Dahlia ay hindi mo mapagkakamalan na may bahay dito.

Papalabas na kami sana ng kagubatan ng may nakita kaming mga duguang Animalia.

Meron din kaming nakikitang mga animalia na naka-hood ng itim.

At sila ang nananakit ng mga kapwa animalia.

Nakita ko rin kung paano yinakap ni Alpha si Chummy.

Pero alam kong hindi takot si Chummy. Hindi raw kasi siya Damsel in distress, yan ang sabi niya.

Si Alpha rin feeling knight in shining armour.

Ano ba yan, isantabi nga muna nila ang kalandian kung ayaw nila masaktan rin sila ng mga animalia na naka-hood.

Nakaka-langgam.

Nakaka-inggit.

Pero biglaan naman may naka-pansin sa amin na isang wizard.

Then it came our way.

Tutusukin niya na sana sila Alpha at Chummy ng isang sandata ngunit ginawang yelo ni Chummy ang sandata na hawak neto.

Kita naman ang gulat sa mata ng wizard ngunit nabawi naman ito.

Napangisi ito, in which kinilabutan talaga ako.

"A peculiar..." naka-ngising saad ng Wizard na parang nanalo sa lotto.

Tapos dumapo ang tingin ng Wizard kay Alpha.... patungo kanila Sergio't Hushy...At sa akin.

"No—not a peculiar but peculiars" He stated.

Hushy on the other hand was so furious and so as Sergio.

Aakmang aatake yung wizard nang gumawa ng Finger gun si Alpha in which lumayo kaagad si Chummy at lumapit sa akin.

"Chloe—" umiiyak na buling ni Chummy sa aking pangalan.

"Anong nangyari?" Nag-aalala kong tanong sa kanya.

"Hindi ko kaya—hindi ko kayang manakit ng tao. Ngayon ko lang nagawa ito, at natatakot ako kasi alam ko rin na ngayon niyo lang ginamit ng matino ang ability niyo at magagamit niyo ito pag-patay."

Nanlumo rin ako sa narinig ko. Oo tama siya, pero ginagamit lang namin ito sa katinuan.

Napa-tingin ako sa gawi nila Alpha. Naka-luhod yung wizard na umatake sa amin.

Naka-finger gun parin ito at parang may sinasabi sa Wizard.

"Hindi! Hindi ko sasabihin kung sino ang nag-utos na kidnapin kayo!" Sigaw ng naka-luhod na Wizard.

"Last chance..."

Hindi na umimik yung wizard.

"Three..."

"Two...."

"One..."

"Bang..."

Ani ni Bluve sabay galaw ng finger gun niya at doon rin bumagsak yung wizard.

Napa-hagulgol naman si Chummy ngunit hindi naman ito malakas.

"Let's go" Pag-aaksyon naman ni Hushy sabay hila sa kamay ko at ni Chummy at tumakbo papalabas ng gubat ng parang walang nakakapansin na Wizard.

Emerald's P.O.V

Nandito kami ni Leo sa isang maliit na bahay.

And we are captured by some creatures in black kanina.

Kanina ay pagmulat ko ng mata ay biglaang bumungad sa akin si Leo na nakagapos rin katulad ko.

Naka-gapos ang kamaya at paa namin.

Sinabi rin ni Leonard na aware siya kung nasaan kami, sa maliit na bahay ngunit hindi niya alam kung saang lugar.

"Young Duke... I'm very sorry, I failed my job to protect you."

Naiiyak na sambit ni Leo.

"Emerald na nga lang."

Napatahimik nalang ito.

Tapos luminga ako at nakita na may kaunting tubig na natapon siguro.

Did I mention that I could control the body of water?

I tried my best to focus on controlling the water and shape it sharp.

At itinutok ko ito sa tali na nakagapos sa akin at kay Leo.

"I knew that you'd figure  out a way!" Excited na sabi ni Leo.

Napangiti naman ako sa kanya.

Then we sneaked out the house at doon ko lang napagtanto na hindi ito headquarters ng men in black kundi isa lang itong abandonadong bahay at dito lang kami ni Leo pinasok.

Since wala talagang magtatangkang papasok dito.

After that nang makakalayo na sana kami ni Leo sa maliit na bahay ay may biglanv umatake na Men in black kanina.

I used a little water na dala-dala ko and use a little gravity to let the others fly to space and cannot breathe.

While Leo on the other hand kept dodging and attacking on the men.

Ako habang tinatapos yung pitong bunch ko ay lumayo muna ako para pag- masdan si Leo sa combat skills niya.

Then when he defeated his fifth men may bigla namang may sumakal sa kanya na isa paring last bunch niya.

(A/N: The next following scene is in english so I supervise you to bring out your dictionary or Google translate works, there are also vulgar words involved but I censored them, Please do not report me.)

I became furious but suddenly saw when how hard the man choked Leo using his bare hands as if his hands isn't stained with blood since then.

Huge pile of sweats trickled over Leo's forehead and was struggling to find a way out by then.

I was about to stand up and help Leo but he motioned me to not come over.

Then he burned the man's hands.

"Arghhhhh! F**k! My Fu****g hands!" His eyes raged with anger.

Oh right. Did I mention that Leo is a Peculiar as well? He isn't in the prophecy but he is the kind that suddenly got his peculiarity by meeting his soulmate before reaching the age 8.

We all get to meet our soulmate before we age 8.

And this will make a bond between them.

Leo became a peculiar when he met his soulmate. He could control fire.

Fire bender!

There are only ten of us, he is bonded to end up with one of us.

I on the other hand met my soulmate but didn't remember her face or any resemblance on her.

I became extremely sarcastic and happy-go-lucky when I met her.

Leo was standing and was taking sharp breaths, he was barely exhausted but continued to face the man.

I looked at the man and realized how he was different to the ones I last defeated, he was more buffer than the others. He have his cloak black but his hood white.

And his eyes are red as blood.

"Silly fu****g pathetic peculiar! You can't defeat me!" The man shouted.

The next thing I knew is that he is in front of Leo beating him multiple of times, blood evident on his forehead.

His shirt is hugging his body closely revealing a very toned one.

He looked at me and our eyes are locked together, he is begging me not to interfere.

Splattered blood are actually spurting out on his left broken ribs when the man punched him on hard on his left.

I couldn't hold back and tried to run into him planning to do something drastic.

But then Leo got into his feet and tried to burn fire on his body even particles of scabs.

He is trying to make his body on hot so that the man couldn't touch him.

Then Leo immediately burned his face which give him time to burn the man.

But instead of my imagination of him burning the man. He flipped him and fractured his spine.

As breathing heavily he grabbed the collar of his shirt and punched him in the face, in which the man immediately passed out.

Leo was looking like a mess, with his sweat trickled on his neck and leaving him breathless.

His eyes burning with determination and victory while his hands is clenched leaving burn marks over them.

To be honest, I'm not gonna lie. Leonard looks like a mess.

A hot mess.
