RAVEN'S POV

*alarm rings

It's already 6:30 AM nang magising ako. After I prayed, "WTF 30 minutes na lang at ma-le-late na naman ako shuta," I said as I get up in bed and check my phone, sakaling in-add friend at chinat ako ng tatlong 'yon. I finished my very short morning routine as fast as I could para makapag-breakfast ako dito sa bahay upang hindi na ako ma-late or worst ma-detention for the second fvcking time.

HAZEL'S POV

"Where the fudge is my freaking camera?!" you can see and sense the frustration filling up my face. And habang ina-unpack ko yung bag ko to see if nandoon ba ang camera ko, I suddenly realized that chinarge ko pala siya kagabi sa sala dahil wala ng outlet na available dito sa room ko, lutang ka ghorl?? I'm done with my morning routine and all, but ayaw ko muna umalis kasi I think masyadong maaga, it's 6:30 AM, hindi naman siguro ako ma-le-late diba?.

LEO'S POV

Breakfast, check. Bag, check. First assignment? done na ata, wait let's check. Ay noice, done. Baon, check. "Mom! I'm all set, let's go na po!" tumatakbo ako pababa ng sala while saying those words and I remember of what happened yesterday, and I got super excited because I think I like it where is this going. As I hop to our car, I was smiling until we arrive at Brendon High. Thinking of what will happen to the four of us, yes, I'm excited.

RITA'S POV

I get up in bed with some muscle pains, dahil din siguro ito sa paglilinis kahapon. I woke up very early kasi maaga din akong natulog kagabi sa sobrang pagod ko, ikaw ba naman paglinisin ng isang abandonadong room tapos may makita kayo secret tunnel at alive na libro tignan ko kung hindi ka mawindang. Ginising ko na din mga kapatid ko para sabay-sabay na kaming kumain. After we eat, we get our baon and we're ready to face this usual day, yes, usual day, but I guess not for me.

I arrived at the school 5 minutes before the class starts. And habang naglalakad na ako sa hallway papuntang room, may babaeng  muntanga ang dada nang dada habang may hawak na camera, yes, it's Haze. "Hi guys so second day of school and honestly I expect a lot for this day because of what happened yesterday sa'min nila Rit, hi ka naman jan Rit," Hazel said, then tinutok niya yung camera sa'kin. Habang dada nang dada itong katabi ko, may tumabi sa aking boy na naka jacket na naman ng black, it's Rave y'all, then kinindatan niya ko, kapal ng haeop na i2. Malapit na kami sa room ng may sumingit sa gitna, isang lalake na naka green na jacket, it's Lee this time, and as we walk together I was imagining na parang kami yung tipo ng magbabarkada na maaangas you know HAHAHA, everyone is looking at us, it's kinda embarrassing. Then, suddenly, we crossed our path with the teacher who destroyed our first day, Mr. Lobo, sarap hilain isa-isa ng bigote nito.

"So, hello to the four great and first detention takers for this school year, how's your first day of school? Masaya ba maglinis? HAHAHA," pabirong salubong sa'min ng matandang 'to. "It's okay, sir. So, how about your first day of school po, ngayong may nasira kayong araw?" bawi at sagot ni Hazel. Litaw sa mukha ng panget na 'to ang gigil, natawa na lang kami dahil do'n at umalis na lang siya sa kahihiyan. At nakarating na kami sa room, "Shuta, buti naman hindi niya na tayo pinatawan ng detention dahil sa sinabi mo Haze," natatawang sabi ni Raven, and pumasok na kami ng room, dahil nakita na rin namin yung first subject teacher namin na papunta na.

.

.

The bell rings and the lunch started. Lee told us to have lunch together, but Haze can't make it because my kasabay daw siya, yung bestfriend niya na si Julienna. Nakaupo na kami ngayon sa cafeteria ng school at pinaguusapan ang gagawin namin mamaya, "So, pagkalabas ng mga classmates natin, tsaka tayo umalis, okay ba 'yon?" tanong ni Lee sa'min na sinangayunan namin ni Rave. "Ako na magsabi later kay Hazel, tara na balik na tayo ng room tapos na rin naman tayong kumain," pag-aya ko sa kanila.

As soon as we got to our room, hinanap ko agad si Hazel at sinabi kung ano ang gagawin namin mamayang uwian.

.

"Nakalabas na silang lahat, tara na ba?" tanong ni Lee sa'min dahil 4:30 PM na rin naman. Tumayo na kaming lahat at sabay-sabay na pumunta doon sa abandonadong room at pumasok sa trapdoor na kung saan nakita namin ang tunnel na maliwanag at ang silid kung nasaan ang nagsasalitan libro. Pag-bukas pa lamang namin ng pintuan papasok ng silid ay nagsalita na kaagad ang libro, "Kanina ko pa kayo hinihintay, bakit ngayon lang kayo?" tanong ng libro sa amin. "Sorry, late kami kasi hinintay pa ho namin yung bell na magring at palabasi  kami ng teacher namin," sagot ni Haze sa libro habang hawak ang camera. "Whatever, so, ready na ba kayong malaman ang lahat tungkol sa pinagsasabi ko kahapon sa inyo?" tanong ng libro at biglaan kami nakaramdam ng kaba sa hindi malamang dahilan, "Maghawak-hawak kayo ng kamay at gumawa ng bilog, magready kayo dahil paniguradong nkakahilo ang gagawin nating paglalakbay sa nakaraan," saad pa nito sa amin. "Ha? bakit nakakahilo? Ano daw? Saan ba tayo pupunta? Shuta what the fck is happening? So, guys I guess bye na," sunod-sunod naming pag-iingay dahil sa kaba at confusion."3, 2, 1, be ready, QUADRO MAGUS," banggit nito sabay ng paglutang naming apat sa ere, at ilang sandali pa lamang ay para kaming nilamon ng libro.

Naka-upo kami ngayon sa damuhan at nakakaramdam ng hilo, hilo, hilo, sorry pero hilo lang talaga. "Ano bang ginawa mo sa amin at ganito yung nararamdaman namin at nasaan ba kami at saka, sino ka??" sunod-sunod na tanong ko ng mapagtanto ko na wala na yung libro at mayroong isang lalake sa harapan namin. "Hindi niyo ba ako nakikilala? Ako iyon yung libro kanina!" natutuwa niyang saad sa amin. "Weh? Kidnapper ka ano? Lalabanan ka namin!" pagmamatalang naman si Hazel na halata namang takot na takot na dahil sa panginginig ng boses.

"Bahala kayo kung hindi kayo naniniwala, ako nga pala si Histel, the teller of the untold history, I'm about to let you know your destiny." sunod-sunod na introduce niya sa amin ngunit hindi pa din namin siya ma-gets. "Anong history ba? World War II? World War I? Holocaust? Alam na namin iyan, pinag-aaralan iyan sa elementary eh," pagyayabang ni Raven kay Histel. Nag-smirk lamang siiya at tinignan kami.

Moments have passed but still wala siyang ginagawa. Then naisipang basagin ni Lee and awkwardness, "Ano po ba? Ikekwento niyo pa ho ba? Mag-gagabi na po kasi eh," saad niya sa matanda. "Ay, sorry na," Histel said. "So, alam niyo na ang mga war sa nakaraan ha, so I think alam niyo na yung War of Charms?" dugtong nito. "Hala? Nagbago na ba yung history? Sa natatandaan ko, wala mang tinuro sa amin na ganiyan, or baka gawa-gawa ka lang??" Raven's confusion was shown in his face. "Totoo mga sinasabi ko, ako? gagawa ng kwento?? Duh, I'm just pure facts," sabi nito kay Raven na ikinatahimik na naman naming lahat.

Limang minuto ang lumipas ng nagsalita si Histel, "Let me do some magic first," as he speaks with his hands waving them, a sparkling together with a yellowish orange light came out from them which made our mouths widely opened. A big levitating see-through screen appeared connected to the light that came out from Histel's magical hands.

Some images shown in the screen and he started the story of the untold history..

"Long time ago, after the dinosaurs extincted and humanity blooms, charm from around the world was discovered by some of the people at dahil sa takot na malaman ng iba ang sikretong ito na maaaring mag lagay sa kanila sa kapahamakan, gumawa ang mga charm owners ng lagusan at sariling mundo na hindi kayang pasukin ng isang mortal na nilalang. Developed and passed generation by generation, it became useful and more powerful until some sorcerers and sorcerress were filled up with greedy and hunger of powers. Our world was ruled by the Goddess of Misdeed, Nesa, together with her most trusted right hand, Annih started the havoc in the World of Charm. They destructed every magical town that gets on their path and killed every magic handlers that oppose their will and those who blocks their way. They gained such power and built their own army of unknown wild creatures that can wrap your body into two. Many of those who stayed on the Light side have tried to exterminate Nesa and Annih to stop what they've started, but they all failed." mahabang salaysay sa amin ni Histel. "Mag-fast forward tayo, matatagalan tayo kapag kinuwento ko pa isa-isa." dagdag nito.

"Another hundred years have past and the four greatest charm casters in our world have been born, and they are the first discoverer and owner of the four magical gems..



The red magical gem that holds the power to start FIRE.



The blue magical gem that has the power to give commands to WATER.



The yellow magical gem that allows the holder to own the ability to manipulate the AIR.



And lastly, the green magical gem that gives the handler the power to move EARTH.

Fire gem, belongs to Alizon, water gem to Evanora, air gem to Salem and the earth gem to Morpheus. They are childhood friends that made them find the gems together and master them. And when they reached 20's they made a plan to drag Nesa and Annih together with their army, down. They prepared for the last 6 months of their life. Then, the very historical and magical war in our world started, the War of Charms," nagulat kami noong pinutok niya bigla ang kwento.

Palabas na kami ngayon ng campus, punong-puno kami ng dismaya at lungkot ng putulin ni Histel ang kaniyang kuwento.

*8 mins ago...

"The War of Charms, that's it, see tomorrow students, mag-gagabi na, balik na lang kayo ulit," pinitik ko na ang aking kamay habang sinasabi ko sa kanila ang mga iyon. Nakabalik na kami sa mundo nila at mga tanong na parang baril ang sumalubong sa akin, "Bakit naman hindi pa ituloy?? Pabitin ka ghorl?? Saya-saya naman," halata sa mga mukha nilang kanina lang ay puno ng pagkamangha ang dismaya.
