Sadhu Prophecy

>Sheloah's POV<

Nilapitan ako ng nanay ko at hinawakan niya ang kamay ko. "Don't be scared. Kahit hindi ako malakas at natatakot rin ako, mom is always here," sabi niya sa akin at nginitian ko siya.

"I was wondering…" Tyler trailed off habang naglalakad kami. "Was the dog really the reason why the zombie apocalypse happened," tanong niya and it all made us wonder.

No'ng unang araw sabi ng guard when he rushed to our classroom that he changed after the dog bit him and the time we were at the roof top of our school, may ginawang search si Jules about zombies and the reason behind it like an animal eating something that contains a chemical that makes them berserk and such.

"Actually, I doubt that theory," react naman ni Sir Erick sa sinabi ni Tyler at lahat kami napatingin sa kanya habang naglalakad kami.

I am expecting to know the reasons why kasi ang galing talaga ni Sir Erick magsabi ng perspective niya. Talaga mapapaisip kami dahil he really sounds logical.

"Bakit po, Sir Erick," tanong naman ni Veon and it was the first time for this hour na nagsalita siya since the time na nalaman niya ang plano at sinabi niya na mangyayari na ang panaginip niya.

"I was looking at the road one time when I arrived at school. I suddenly saw a person biting off someone's neck. At first akala ko baliw ang tao since minsan may mga baliw malapit sa school natin so I just ignored it," sabi naman ni Sir Erick at patuloy parin kami sa paglalakad.

"Naalala niyo pa ba yung time na nakausap natin ang ate ni Veon sa iPad ni Jules," tanong ng tito ko and we all nodded. "Hindi ba nangyari rin ang zombie apocalypse doon? Meaning… hindi talaga nagsimula ang pangyayaring ito sa bansa natin, kundi worldwide talaga," dagdag sabi pa niya at lahat kami nagreact sa sinabi niya.

It was an eye opener for us. It's not only in our country that in happened, but in others as well. But how?

"Do you guys know what Sadhu prophecy is," tanong ng nanay ko and some of us shook our heads.

"Yung hula po ng isang prophet na nagkatotoo," tanong naman ni Shannara at tumango naman ang nanay ko bilang sagot.

"Ewan ko kung coincidence lang pero nangyayari mostly ang mga prophecies niya. Remember the earthquakes? It happened. Even the tsunami. Sinabi niya rin na magkaka earthquake rito sa Pinas. Sinabi niya rin ang specific place and it happened. Sabi niya rin na magkakaroon ng strong typhoon, Yolanda, and it happened," sabi ng nanay ko at lahat kami naintriga.

"Sinabi rin sa kanyang prophecy na may flesh-eating disease na mangyayari sa Pangasinan. Hindi ba we received news of that? But it was also reported as a hoax. Sa ibang articles din sa internet about this flesh-eating disease sinabi rin na rito magsisimula ang zombie apocalypse. Do you think this is true, too, or just another hoax," dagdag sabi rin naman ni Shannara at lahat kami napaisip.

"With all of these questions and things that we remember, we don't know if it's really true or if it's merely a coincidence," sabi naman ni Kreiss at nag sigh ako.

"Paano naman tayo makakahanap ng sagot? Well, sa tingin ko naman hindi na muna tayo makakahanap ng sagot dahil masyado tayong busy isipin at planuhin kung paano tayo mabubuhay," sabi ko at tumango ang iba.

We have no tie to look for answers because what matters now is that wee are alive and we are finding ways for us to survive.

"Sa tingin mob a na may heal ang pangyayaring ito? Cure para sa zombies," tanong ni Geof and we all shook our heads.

"Sa tingin ko imposible," sagot naman ni Isobel sa kanya at agad nagsalita si Veon.

"Sa Warm Bodies at sa World War Z, hindi ba may methods sila kung paano ma-cure ang zombies? Sa tingin niyo pwede 'yon," tanong ni Veon at sinagot siya ni Sir Erick.

"They are all impossible and unrealistic in my opinion, maslalo na sa Warm Bodies," he stated first and he shook his head in disagreement. "Masyadong unrealistic ang Warm Bodies because human connection is a shitty reason for a cure," sabi niya at lahat kami nag agree sa sinabi niya.

"Zombies are mindless creatures," sabi ni Kreiss at nginitian siya ni Sir Erick.

"Correct," sabi naman sa kanya ni Sir Erick at hindi parin kami nakakarating sa destinasyon namin.

"How about World War Z's method," tanong naman ni Isobel and Sir Erick still shook his head.

"Still a no. Because you're going to use a deadly pathogen? Hindi ba nila naisip kung ano ang side effect nito sa kanila, sa health nila, most especially to those people who have low immune system," sagot ni Sir Erick and he did sound logical.

"But we have proven some things that they react to sound. 'Yon ang pinaka common at isa pa, sa Walking Dead, if they smell like us, hindi nila tayo masyado mapapansin tapos may kinds of zombies pa na tulad sa games na nilalaro namin," sabi naman ni Tito at napatango si Sir Erick.

"Everything is connected," sabi niya at nagsalita ulit siya. "Tulad ng isang scientific principle na natutunan natin sa school which says 'everything is connected to everything else'," dagdag sabi pa niya at nakikita na namin ang mall kung saan kami kukuha ng resources.

Sa usapan naming ito, marami kaing naiisip at marami kaming nalalaman na pwedeng makatulong o kaya 'di pwedeng makatulong. Maraming possibilities at maraming methods na pwede pang subukan. May mga ibang realistic, siyempre mayroon ding unrealistic. Hindi parin namin maiwasan na magkaroon ng madaming tanong at gusto namin ito masagot isa-isa. No one is an expert of this zombie apocalyptic matter because it only happened recently.

Everything is indeed… sometimes a mystery.
