War and Deaths

"Circe, tabi!" Nagulat ako nang sigaw sa'kin ni Thanatos habang nakatingin sa'kin. Pero hindi ako si Circe.

I felt someone took over my body again, and kaagad itong tumabi. Bumuo ito ng magic barrier sa kaniyang paligid.

The Olympian War.

I am witnessing the previous war, noong hindi pa ako nag-eexist. Noong hindi pa nasisira ang universe, at hindi pa ako bumalik sa oras.

Ang digmaang tatapos daw sa lahat, kaya ako ginawa upang pigilan ito.

"The mortals!" wika ni Hades. "Hindi pwedeng maraming mortal na madamay. It will cause imbalance, mapupuno ang underworld at masisira iyon."

Hades. He was the one who protected mortals during that time.

"Create barriers for them, Circe," utos ni Hades. Tumango naman ako, unconciously, at tumakbo papunta sa gilid kung nasaan ang mga mortal.

I or Circe put her hands in some symbol and casted a spell around the mortals. Nakaramdam ako ng sakit sa aking puso, o sa puso ni Circe. Narararamdaman ko na ring nanlalabo ang paningin ko.

"Circe!" Sigaw ni Persephone. "Tama na 'yan. Magpahinga ka muna."

Umiling si Circe, at hindi tiningnan si Persephone. I felt her, Circe's, body weaken due to too much power. Huminga ako nang malalim, bago tumingin sa iba.

"The other Gods have vanished, nawalan na sila ng kapangyarihan," wika ni Poseidon. I looked at the enemies. It was Zeus and Hera, the most powerful, and his powerful children, Dionysus, Apollo, Artemis, Athena, and Aphrodite. They had seven of the Olympians. Kaya't mas nanalo sila.

"Eris already vanished," napatingin kaming lahat kay Thanatos. "Yes, when there is chaos, she becomes too powerful, pero dahil din sa kasobrahan ng chaos, she lost her physique, and became this chaos."

"So, the technique would be to not use too much power," wika ni Poseidon at tumango naman kami.

As Melizabeth, I was taken aback by the fact that there have been vanishing Gods. Maaaring sa Olympian War ngayon, ay may magvanish din na mga Diyos.

"Melinoe, do not use too much power over ghosts," pag-warn ni Persephone kay Melinoe. I looked at Melinoe, and saw how really similar my looks were to her.

She smirked, "Of course." Half of her face was dark, while the half was not. Isa na iyong pangitain na unti-unti na rin siyang nalalamon ng kapangyarihan niya.

Nagitla kaming lahat nang malakas na kidlat ang tumama sa mga mortal. I felt Circe's barrier destroyed, kaya't bigla akong napaluhod at hinawakan ko ang mata ko.

The left eye didn't see anything. Tuluyan nang nabulag ang kaliwang mata ni Circe. I looked at Thanatos, "Hindi ren pwedeng marami ang mamatay, or I'll also loose my physique and become a shadow of death. Magvavanish din ako."

I held my breath when he said that. Ito na ba ang sinasabi ni Harmonia na magvavanish daw si Thanatos? Death is inevitable, mayroon talagang mamamatay sa digmaan. Does that mean, mamamatay siya uli sa gaganaping digmaan?

"Do not use your power, Thanatos," I warned.

Pumikit si Thanatos, "These deaths make me powerful, but my physique has limits. Hindi pwedeng sabay sabay silang namamatay."

Napatingin kami nang biglang sumigaw si Melinoe, she was now consumed by the dark side of her physique. She became a ghost now, hindi na siya Goddess.

"We lost another," sabi ni Hades at nakakuyom ang kamao. He looked at Persephone, and put on her the helm of darkness. Naging invisible si Persephone, pero nakikita parin siya ni Hades.

"Poseidon," wika ni Zeus. "Bakit ka kay Hades pumanig? You could vanish there, bakit hindi ka nalang dito sa amin?"

Poseidon scoffed, "I would not like an immature brother at my side."

"Pinapatay mo lahat ng mga mortal, gayunpamang hindi dapat sila madamay dito, Zeus," matigas na wika ni Hades.

Zeus looked at the mortals, and smirked, "Why, Hades? Are you afraid that it will cause imbalance, and the underworld would be destroyed? At magvavanish ka na rin?"

Tumawa nang sabay si Poseidon at Hades, then Poseidon spoke, "Brother, when you kill these mortals. Hindi na sila maniniwala saiyo at sa amin na sila maniniwala. At kapag wala nang sumasampalataya sa iyo, maglalaho ka, Zeus."

Hades added, "If all the Gods also vanish, nothing would be left with you. Hindi ka na magiging King of Gods. You'd be no one. You will vanish."

"Enough!" Sabi ni Zeus at kaagad na inatake ang kaniyang mga kapatid.

"We warned you, brother," huling wika ni Poseidon bago isang malaking tidal wave ang kumitil sa buhay ng mga alagad ni Zeus.

Zeus killed more of mortals. Kaya't napatingin ako kay Thanatos, pero tila hindi ko siya makita.

I looked around and all, but I couldn't find him, hanggang sa nagulat nalang ako nang magsalita ako o si Circe. "Thanatos has vanished, he is now the shadow of death."

A shadow passed by, and I immediately noticed it. It was Thanatos' shadow of death, and now, siya na iyon.

The war has killed Thanatos.

The war that I am going to make this time, might kill him again. Kung ako nga ang magsisimula ng digmaan, then I would be the main reason that would make him vanish.

Napapikit ako nang mariin, and just by thinking of how he might die because of me hurt me.

Is it time for change of plans? Should I forget my vengeance, and start finding a way to make this war not to happen?
