POWER

Mino's P.O.V

I knew damn well that something is really off with Vreihya. I always think about her whereabouts after she had admitted to me everything and it will always end up with the pain inside my heart to be reborn.

I thought that everything about us is real and as genuine as they can be. Kahit pa sabihin na pinilit man niya o hindi na mahulog ako sa kaniya, alam ko sa sarili ko na umasa akong may damdamin din siya para sa akin.

But everything broke my heart into pieces dahil nang mga panahon na batid kong hindi na ako ang may-ari ng aking puso ay wala naman pala siyang balak na ingatan ito sa oras na alam niyang hawak na niya.

Everyday, her awful words echoes in my mind na paulit-ulit akong nilulunod sa sakit. It feels like an incantation of a curse that will always crush my heart hanggang sa mapagod na itong tumibok pang muli.

My rage is greater than this sick love that I am feeling, mahirap magmahal lalo na kung siya na mismo ang nagsabi na ang katotohanan na ang lahat ay para sa pansarili lamang niyang pangangailangan.

She chose to make me love her in exchange of saving her own skin and that reality will always break me more than I can handle.

She broke my heart quietly but that shuttering of my heart being broken into pieces will always be the loudest quiet I had ever heard.

It is always a big obstacle for me to stop the dwelling tears in my eyes every time her beautiful image flashed in my head. I never cried again even though I knew pretty well that I am the peak of it.

It is because I believe that if a million dollars can't bring a broken trust then a million tears can't also bring back the wholeness of a broken heart.

For the first time, I am the one who left when I loved a woman. For the first time I am the one who turned my back away because it is also the first time that I fell in love this deep and loving this deeply means having a deep scar that will never be forgotten without forgiving.

She took my heart, she broke it too and now it is in pieces without her even trying to fix it, I was left alone to gather each pieces and make it as whole as I can with my bleeding hands.

But lately I can feel that she's somehow here because how can I have her powers protecting me every time I am in danger.

Why the hell every time I touch a dying flower it will always blossom again but what stunned me every time is that my bed always smells like her.

The most fragrant flower that I had ever smelled. I can feel her somewhere, lurking just inches away from me or maybe I am just fucking going insane at pinapaniwala ko ang sarili ko na nasa tabi ko pa din ang prinsesang nanakit sa akin nang husto.

I can see her in my dreams na minsan ay malabo at minsan ay malinaw and I always try to stop myself to grab her or even touch her but she will always end up locked in my arms.

But I knew pretty well that this dumbass can give me answers.

"Tell me the truth!" I growled at Olaf habang idinidiin ko siya sa pader ng isang malaking bakanteng gusali kung saan kami madalas nag-eensayo simula nang nagtatago na kami sa mga magulang ko.

"You can't handle it if you're this wea-"

"Damn it! Cut with that freaking word!" I hissed at mas lalo kong hinigpitan ang pagkakahawak ko sa kaniyang kwelyo ngunit nginisian niya lamang ako na parang wala siyang naririnig na pagbabanta.

"Come on dude! You had so much trouble in your mind right now and the last thing I want to do is put another information on that brain of yours na makakasira lang sa konsentrasyon mo," he reasoned out.

I sighed, yeah his right!

I released him even though I knew pretty well that he can easily free himself from me but for some reason he is not doing that.

Narinig ko ang mabagal na yapak ng suot niyang sapatos at tumigil siya sa pinakagitna ng malawak na gusali. This is a two-story factory na abandunado na. We have moved all the equipment to make ourselves a vast space to do whatever it is that he's making me do.

"One day, you will tell me what happened to her," I said slowly habang nagsisimulang magyelo ang kaniyang tinatapakan at unti-unti itong lumalawak upang sakupin ang loob ng lumang factory.

"Woah, I already told you to sing whenever you do that!" I told him sabay tumingin siya nang marahas sa akin.

"I hate singing that I fell like an idiot!" he hissed back, ito ang hiningi kong kapalit ng pagliligtas ko sa kaniyag buhay. Every time he will freeze this place to start our daily training, he needs to sing my favorite song.

"That song is iconic dude and it was made for you," mapanloko kong saad sa kaniya habang tinitignan niya ako nang matalas na para bang gusto niya akong pagyelohin.

This is your payment for giving me a hard time!

"I can always give you back to my parents, I knew pretty well that they have stocks of that poisonous smoke," I threatened him and his fangs emerge as if ready to devour something.

"Fucking fine!" he exclaimed as if defeated. Huminga siya nang malalim na para bang napipilitan sa pinapagawa ko sa kaniya.

He started to wave his hands habang nakikita ko ang inis sa kaniyang mga mata. I smirked, here comes my favorite part.

"Let it go, let it go," he begun to sing and waved his hands on the left causing the left wall to freeze. "Can't hold it back anymore," he turned around and raise both of his hand and snowflakes formed on the air.

"Let it go, let it go... Turn away and slam the door," medyo nahirapan na siyang pataasin ang kaniyang boses ngunit inihakbang niya ang kaniyang paa na siyang nagpakapal ng yelo sa sahig na mabilis na kumalat.

"I don't care what they're going to say," he sang on top of his lungs and swirl one more time.

"Let the storm rage on," he swayed his right hand causing the other wall to be devoured by ice.

I grinned widely as the finale is about to come.

"The cold never bothered me anyway," he sang with feelings sabay itinuro sa itaas ang kanan niyang kamay habang nakaturo naman sa kaliwang pader ang kaliwa niyang kamay.

Nagyelo na nang tuluyan ang lumang factory habang naghahabol siya ng hininga. Damn it! HAHA!

Hindi ko na napigilan na mapapalakpak habang tumatawa dahil sa kaniyang ginawa ngunit agad akong napaiwas dahil sa lumipad na matulis na tipak ng yelo sa aking direksyon. Mabilis itong tumarak sa nagyeyelong pader sa aking likuran.

"I will make you pay for this," he hissed and looked at me sharply habang sumasakit na ang panga ko kakatawa. Look at this prince, sino ang mag-aakala na kaya niyang gawin ang ganitong nakakahiyang bagay.

Agad siyang tumalon at habang nasa ere ay nagpalipad siya ng tipak ng matatalas na yelo sa aking direksyon at mabilis akong lumundag pakanan upang iwasan ang mga ito.

Yeah, he's mad already!

Sunod-sunod na tumama sa nagyeyelong sahig ang kaniyang matatalas na yelo na aking iniwasan.

I sighed harshly, this is going to be a long day.

After an excruciating hours of battling with Olaf, I raised both of my hands to surrender and I harshly lay on the cold frozen floor while trying to inhale as much air as I can.

"Nice job, mas tumatagal ka na ngayon sa laban," he praised but I can't help but to be mad at myself. Napakabagal ng pag-usad ko, this is not what I want.

"Let's fight again!" nahihirapan kong usal habang iniinda ang mga tama ko sa aking katawan at ang mga malalalim na sugat na aking natamo.

Naramdaman ko ang marahan niyang pag-upo sa aking tabi, I was about to say something but-

"Fuck it!" I exclaimed dahil agad niyang sinundot ng kaniyang daliri ang malalim kong sugat sa tagiliran na parang sumusundot lang siya kulangot niya.

Heck with this snow prince.

"Don't push yourself too hard, you're improving," saad niya habang pinapahid sa suot kong pantalon ang dugo na nasa daliri na kaniyang pinangsundot.

"No I am not!" I hissed back dahil wala naman akong nakikita na improvement.

"It is because you have your own ideal of improving na pinipilit mong abutin and that's too high if I am not mistaken. Sa tingin mo ba normal na nagagawa ng isang tao lahat ng nagagawa mo?" pangangatwiran niya sa akin. I harshly sat down and faced him with a mocking look.

"Try to compare me with your kind, do you think I am as strong as you?" I hissed back at him but he smirked na para bang isang malaking kalokohan ang sinabi ko.

"Ahm no! Wala ka pa sa kalahati," he mocked and I harshly threw him a punch na walang kahirap-hirap niyang nasalo.

"Show me the eye," he stated coldly and I automatically made my pupils thin at agad na may gumuhit na kung ano sa utak ko. Fuck it! Masakit pa din kapag binibigla.

Binitawan niya ang aking kamao sabay tumitig nang diretso sa aking mga mata habang tila nanlalabo na naman ang aking paningin. The problem with this state of mine is kailangan ko pang ihanda ang sarili ko bago ko magawa at kapag binibigla ko ito ay sumasakit nang husto ang ulo ko.

"We need to move quickly Mino kaya papahirapan na kita nang husto, it's been two months now since we are here in you world which means dalawang oras na tayong nawawala sa mundo ng mga bampira," he stated coldly pero agad na napakunot ang noo ko.

Anong klaseng timeline ang meron sa kanila? A month is equivalent for an hour?

"Woah! Calm down! Dalawang oras pa lamang," I stated at him dahil masyado siyang natatakot sa dalawang oras na pagkawala namin sa kanilang magulong mundo.

"I am worried for Vreihya's family and the villagers lalo na ngayon na wala na si Vreihya, kung aabot sa reyna ang balita ay paniguradong hindi maganda ang kakalabasan," he stated.

Damn it! I totally forgot about the villagers.

"Hindi tayo maaaring bumalik hanggang ganito ka pa," he hissed.

"That's why I am telling you to fight again," malamig kong turan habang unti-unti ng sumasakit ang ulo ko dahil sa aking mga mata.

"I will not exhaust your body, I want to tire your mind," agad niyang sagot pabalik na parang mas natutuwa siya na mabaliw ako kaysa mabugbog.

"Pareho mo lang pinapagod ang utak at ang katawan ko," pambabara ko sa kaniya na agad niyang ikinangisi.

I stopped myself from throwing a blow on his face once again.

"I need someone's help now," he stated casually and that made my brow furrowed with confusion.

Sino naman ang hihingan niya ng tulong? Does he knew someone from here?

I was about to ask pero nagulat ako nang marahas niyang hawakan ang ulo ko gamit ang magkabila niyang kamay at agad kong naramdaman ang agad na pagbalot ng malamig na yelo sa ulo ko.

"FUCK!" I hissed with agony as he slowly freezing my head, literally. Damn it! Anong ginagawa niya. I lost my concentration at bumalik sa normal ang aking mga mata habang patuloy na nagyeyelo ang ulo ko.

Marahas ko siyang itinulak palayo dahil sa hindi magandang pakiramdam ko sa kaniyang ginagawa. Marahas na nawala ang hawak niya at naramdaman ko ang pagkawala ng malamig at mabigat na yelo sa ulo ko.

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!?" galit kong sigaw sa kaniya ngunit prente lamang siyang umupo nang maayos na parang wala lang ang kaniyang ginawa.

"Think of her right now," he ordered casually at agad na nangunot ang noo ko sa sinabi niya.

"Who the he- AHHH!" agad akong napasalampak sa malamig na nagyeyelong sahig ng biglang tila tumibok ang utak ko at naramdaman ko ang pagliit ng guhit sa aking mga mata.

My body was shocked and unprepared for my eyes' transformation into a state that I can't control.

Anong ginawa niya?

Ngunit unti-unting nawala ng sakit at muling bumalik sa normal ang aking paningin.

"Vreihya!" he called her name as if she was here.

"AHH!" I yelled once again nang muli siyang sumagi sa isip ko at muling nabigla ang aking katawan dahil sa pagbabago ng aking mga mata. Now I get what he had done.

He unleash something in my brain that every time I will think about her, my eyes will automatically change so that I can be use to turning it on instantly na hindi na kailangan pa ng mahabang preparasyon para magawa ko.

I smirked, and he picked a good person that is always on my mind to make sure that my ability will be turned on regularly.

Talagang minamadali na niya ang lahat.

Agad kong inayos ang aking pagkakaupo at madiin na tumitig sa kaniya. "Vreihya!" he called her name again and my head throb as my vision had change again. Bahagya akong napainda sa gumuhit na sakit sa utak ko dahil sa parang sinok na pabigla-biglang nagbabago ang aking paningin.

While I was on this state I threw a punch on him again na mabilis niyang nasalo ngunit kapwa kaming natigilan dahil sa narinig namin na malulutong na pagkabasag ng mga buto.

Agad kong inilayo ang aking kamao sa kaniya at agad kong nakita ang panlalaki ng kaniyang mga mata.

Agad siyang tumayo at hinawakan ang lupaypay niyang kamay habang nagsimula siyang magsisigaw dahil sa sakit.

"FUCK FUCK FUCK!" he exclaimed harshly habang para siyang maiiyak dahil sa sa sakit na kaniyang nararamdaman. He was panicking while looking at his broken hand, he cursed again and again na siyang umaalingawngaw sa buong paligid.

Okay? What was that?

Nagtataka kong tinignan ang aking kamao at unti-unti kong naunawaan ang nangyari. Marahas akong tumayo sa aking kinauupuan. My eyes were normal again but I would like to try something.

Habang hindi na magkamayaw sa kakasigaw si Calix habang hinahawakn niya ang kaniyang nabaling kamay ay muli kong inisip si Vreihya.

Bahagya akong nawalan ng balanse dahil sa biglaang pagbabago ng aking paningin. Damn it! Kailangan ko na itong kasanayan.

Agad kong isinara ang aking kamao at malakas na sinuntok ang nagyeyelong sahig. Agad na natipak ang makapal na yelo dahil sa lakas ng aking ginawang atake.

Nasa kalagitnaan ako ng pagkamangha dahil sa lakas ng aking suntok ngunit unti-unting nabibitak hindi lamang ang sahig kundi maging ang buong gusali.

Kapwa kami nawalan ng balanse ng prinsipeng nagwawala na sa sakit habang unti-unting tila guguho na ang lumang factory.

I really need to get use to this powerful state and use it to further enhance my attacks!

I will comeback to that world and kill that freaking monster for my glory!
