Vienesse POV
"Klein?"Napansin kong nakatulala siya.
Tumingin siya sa akin.
A figure formed in the dark.
"Wait here!"Iniwan ko si Klein sa kwarto niya.
Ikinasa ko ang baril. I can feel another presence.
Lumitaw ang ulo niya sa pinto.
'What do you seek?"I interrogated him. My bullets are ready if he lies to me or he do anything drastic. He was silent.Mukhang nagulat ito. There was never a hint of danger in his aura. But looks can be deceiving. He was a tall man in his 60s but still dignified as Mr.Jacob.
Pinigilan ako ni Klein. He held the gun. But he was oblivious that I was trembling with his touch. The feeling was very foreign to me, I feel like sparks fly everywhere and it was as if my hand was electrified. Why was I being theatrical at this very unlikely time? I shrugged the whole thought.
"Wait! It's Mendev, my past butler and a family friend"Inagaw ni Klein ang baril ko.
"Klein, I have to tell you something important and you have come of age to know the truth, it concerns your true identity"He sounded urgent.
"What are you talking about?"Klein was clearly stunned.
"Follow me"Tipid na sabi niya.
Pumunta ito sa salas kasunod namin.
May pinidot itong parte ng painting. It unraveled a secret door.
Klein's POV
I was stunned to see a secret door at our house. I never discovered it. What I know is that the volts, are carefully hidden beneath the cellar.
Puro sulo ang nakita naming sa loob. It was an old room. Puro agiw ang nadadanan namin. Matagal nang hindi nagagamit ang mga gamit sa loob.
Kumuha ng sulo si Mendev.
Nasa isa kaming minahan. There was a metal cart that could accommodate 3 people. Pinindot ni Mendev ang button at bumukas ang pinto.
Dahan dahan kaming naglakad.
"Ingat may mga patibong sa paligid"Babala ni Mendev sa amin.
Arrows filled the air and richocheted towards us.
Mabilis ang reflexes ni Mendev at Vienesse.
Naiwan ako sa isang sulok. Binalikan ako ni Vienesse at tinulungang iwasan ang mga patibong.
Sumapit kami sa isang dead end. Hinawi ni Mendev ang alikabok sa isang parte ng pader.
Lumabas ang isang nakatagong kahon, In that box, it opened and it revealed a series of numbers. Mendev punched in some numbers.
Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Vienesse ang pumasok kami sa isang silid. Puno ito ng armas. Guns, bombs, daggers you name it. It was like a fortress, an armed fortress.
Sa pinakadulo ng kwarto may larawan ng lalaking nasa mid forties.
"Sino siya"Usisa ko sa kanya.
"Klein, I present to you, your great great grandfather Mr. Westly Collins Philips"Proud na pakilala niya. It made my eyes big. It wasn't the whole hidden mystery room that stunned me, it was this revelation.
"How can he be my great great grandfather when my grandfather is Luigi Greyson Johnson"I contradicted with him.
"Hindi ko sinabing hindi mo lolo si Mr. Luigi, What I mean was Westley Collins Philips is your grandfather sa side ng mommy mo"Paliwanag niya.
There was a long silence. I never know that as a fact.
"Isa kang taga Cladestone Vill. In fact, you're their next leader"He said while started to clean some guns.
"Cladestone Vill? Their next leader? That's the most absurd thing I have ever heard!"I said sarcastically. Natawa ako ng pagak.
"This is not a laughing matter Klein! The whole Cladestone Vill is counting on you. You will be trained to be a leader. Ms. Adams will make you one. She is an Agent as well as a trainor"Seryoso niyang sabi sa akin.
"I am not ready for all of this"I hesitated. I don't have the will and courage to be a leader. Well, how can I be a leader, if I know nothing about Cladestone Vill let alone I have never been there.
"I'll make you ready. Isa pa, Mr. Westley wasn't ready when he became a leader of Cladestone Vill. He was about your age that time. Come on, I'll show you at your room"He lead us to our separate rooms.
When everything is settled pinuntahan kami ni Mendev. Our rooms are adjacent. Inihanda namin ang aming mga gamit.
"By the way, training starts tomorrow"Then he disappeared into the dark.
It would be one heck of a day tomorrow.
