SERENA.

HOLY STYX!

Aizen's pisnge is mapula na. The soul inside me is sinasampal siya nang maraming times. Aizen's mata suddenly opened and he suddenly layo-layo to me with gulat expression. He was nakatingin sa 'kin like his hindi makapaniwala to what I've done to his magandang face. He was nakahawk to his semi-tomato cheeks and duro-duro me like I'm a nakakatakot na being.

"Holy Styx. What have you done to my face, Serena?" He tanong.

"It's not ako!"

"You're slapping me," He emphasized. I'm still not makapaniwala na he's nang aakusa. Well, it looks like I'm sinasampal him but I'm not talaga the one doing that.

And before I could make tanggol-tanggol myself. My dibdib is biglang nanakit. I'm also nilalamig and nanginginig. Aizen was sumisigaw, he was tinatawag my name but my eyes were nakapikit. I'm naliliyo and sumisigaw ng loud because of the sakit that I'm feeling right now.

"I am sorry. Please endure the pain. My mission is already done. Goodbye, Serena." It was the boses of the soul inside my katawan. I'm umiiyak na dahil sa pain. I felt a yakap, it was warm yakap. He make punas-punas my luha and halik my forehead. The sakit suddenly disappeared.

I opened my mata. I smiled sa kanya but my kilig disappeared when I saw Sue on Aizen's likod.

HOW CAN I MAKE LANDI LANDI HERE WHEN OUR FRIEND IS IN THE VERGE OF PAGKAMATAY?!

I'm gumapang to Sue's direction. Aizen followed. Bigla niyang hinold yung hand ni Sue and inspect the violet thing that was kumakalat in Sue's body. He looked at me as if he wanted to make tanong. I'm umupo in his tabi. He knows. He is sinisisi himself.

"Bobo ba 'yan?" He asked. I blink nang maraming times.

I'm naguguluhan na tumingin to him, "Make ulit?"

"She's an idiot,"

"Hey, why are you saying that Sue is bobo? She just ligtas—"

"Aizen? Serena?" We both lingon when someone called our pangalan. It was Phoenix and Reina, they are magkahawak ng hand and Phoenix is hinihingal.

Why are they here in the Mortal World nga pala? Why are we here ba?

I'm sumunod lang naman kay Riley and then I'm narito na.

Phoenix's eyes were naluluha while looking at Sue. His lumingon sa paligid and nakita niya yung harp. He make luhod sa ground and suntok it. I'm nagulat when Reina make luhod near Sue and let out a freakin' Bluebell Flower out of her bag.

We all make tingin to her, she's seryoso. But her eyes were masaya when she placed the Bluebell Flower near Sue's ilong. "Mr. Jackson gave it to me," she mumbled. It was the kambing who doesn't want to make turo to us.

The Bluebell Flower began to lumiwanag. It was only hapon and it's maliwanag like the moon is nasa harap namin. The speck of blue glittery dust began to dance in the hangin, they began to balot Sue's katawan. The exact area that is violet na.

"Thank you," Phoenix whispered. He let out a buntong-hininga.

"You're Aizen, right? Do you know how to contact your sister?" Reina asked. Aizen shook his ulo and nagtatakhang tumingin kay Reina, "You're the who called her?" Aizen asked and Reina just tango.

"Serena, what are you doing here? Wala ka dapat dito," Phoenix stated. I'm nag-iisip na tumingin to him. Well, I should ask them din the same tanong. "I'm tumakas and make sunod to the guy named Riley." I answered.

Aizen quizically looked at Reina, "How about you?"

"I was given an undercover mission. This school, Shier University, school of the Titans. And they are searching the Everlasting Potion inside the university. I contacted Aizelle when they ambushed me, the normal ones were brought to the classroom. They were unconscious because of the weird gust earlier that doesn't affect demigods. They are asking me to join them and... they wanted me to hand the Everlasting Potion to them,"

"If you don't know how to laban then why are you nandito?"

"I know how to fight." She whispered but I was able to rinig it.

I was about to tanong again when Aizen suddenly speaks, "There was a badge on Aizelle's—"

"You mean like this? Mine was actually destroyed earlier," Reina explained. I'm nagtatakhang tumingin to her when she threw the itim na badge. I'm not nakakarelate to what they are pinag-uusapan.

Three silhouettes suddenly appeared. And I was nagulat when Aizelle runs towards Reina like they are not nagkita for long years. "Thank goodness," Aizelle said.

They are naghiwalay and Reina was smiling, I'm nagtatakha na tumingi sa kanya. That smile is katulad of someone I know. Lyn. "Hindi ko na ata kaya pag nawala ka pa ulit," Reina's mata suddenly widened. She's gulat na nakatingin kay Aizelle because what she said.

Nawala? "Hehe. Tita Francine would be outrageous..." Aizelle said. She's kinakabahan habang she's naiwas nang tingin to us.

"Tita Francine? Who is she? Ba't ang dami mong kakilala?" Light asked. He's pinaniningkitan ng eyes si Aizelle.

Aizelle is napakamot to her ulo, "She's Master Garet's friend and she's living in Mortal World—"

"Aizelle, the name of the mortal who has blessed eyes is Alyssa. Stop lying—"

"Alyssa Francine, that's her name!" Reina interrupted Light.

Aizelle and Reina were nakakapagtakha. They are may tinatago. "Then you also have the same mata like your mom, right?" I asked.

"Yeah," she whispered. "That's why I saw the Everlasting Potion..." it was a bulong. Oh, she's the mortal that is nakakakita sa through the mist.

"Then, let's go back. Her mission is done, so is Aizelle's." Sky said. He's seryoso. Phoenix make pasan-pasan to Sue and we are nag-umpisang naglakad. I crooked and looked at them.

"We have a portal in our house," Reina said.

"I can see the gate," Aizen said.

I looked up when surrounding turned black.

My serious mode suddenly switched on.

The shades of black and grey were filling the vicinity. It was slowly robbing and destroying the light. As the darkness emerges four pairs of eyes glimmers, they are gazing at us. They are all familiar to me, I sadly smiled.

"Hand Reina to us," He said in his hoarse voice. His brunette hair was swaying as the current of the wind gets stronger. His charcoal eyes were looking down on us.

I looked beside him. The girl beside her was looking at me, I faintly smiled. "Ellen," I mumbled. Umiwas siya nang tingin sa 'kin. So, this is the reason why she is nowhere to be found. Tumalikod siya sa mga Olympian.

Together with Night and Ellen was Dylan who was carrying Nicole on his grasp.

"Kyle." Reina mumbled. Nang mapatingin ako sa kanya ay gulat siyang nakatingin kay Night. I heaved a sigh, she was tricked by her opponents.

"He's Night," Sky said. He was brooding while looking at Night.

"Dude, chill." Night said sardonically. He was simply teasing my brother. "Hand Reina to us and we will let the Primus escape my wrath,"

"No way,"

Night smiled. It was an evil one.

May sinasabi si Sky ngunit hindi ko na nagawa pang marinig 'yon.

Because the endless darkness also filled my other world.
