*Cody's sub-POV* The clock struck twelve.

"So have you given up on being a human?" he asked me. "Yes, I have no reason to live in that wretched world," I replied. WHOA! I woke up from that dream. Well, I (or is it really I?) was talking with another Blood Daemon which more blood, more spikes, and apparently... a more devilish soul.

It seems that I wasn't Cody. I... I was Kelvin. Ayaw ko namang tumawag sa iba kong kasamahan dahil pagkasarap-sarap ng tulog nila. So I just tried keeping it. Nang biglang... WHAT DOES THE FOX SAY? my phone rang.

Me: Hello.

Kelvin: Hey Cody. It's Kelvin.

Me: Oh hey king of Raef...

Kelvin: Listen. I know you saw everything.

Me: And?

Kelvin: I... I am terribly sorry.

Me: You should be. After you betrayed us...

Kelvin: Listen.

Me: Why would I?

Kelvin: Because it would be the end of both our worlds if you don't.

Me: *speechless for 10 seconds* I'm listening.

Kelvin: Destroy the gateway after you have saved all nineteen souls...

Me: Wait, don't you mean 'twenty'?

Kelvin: Only nineteen.

Me: Huh?

Kelvin: Just save them and close the gateway.

Me: How?

Kelvin: Destroy the auditorium.

Me: Okay deal... but if this is just a jinx, you're dead. --- I ended the call.

Wow. Conversation with an otherworldly betraying fiend. Nice. *sarcastic*. I went to sleep again... and this time showing no bit of mercy to Kelvin.

"Oh? Dude. Something you're not telling us?" sabi sa akin ni Dan habang sabay-sabay kami nina June pumasok. Breathe in, breathe out. "Hui best friend, gising!" sabi naman sa akin ni June. I burst the bubble and let the cat out of the bag, "Kelvin called me last night..." tapos sabay nag-reply... "...and?"

"He wants us to destroy the auditorium after we have saved all nineteen souls," I said. "Teka, eighteen lang," said a girl's voice. Kay Juri. Sabay-sabay silang dumating nina Katelyn at Ice.

"Paano naging eighteen?" I asked. 

Number of students saved: 7

Number of bodies left in the auditorium: 10

Juri and Ice stunned with Raef Soul Decrease: 2
