The Last Elysian Oracle (Soon to be Published under PSICOM)

Three Prophecies

Dio's POV

"You will have to train harder." I eyed the aurai who is currently standing in front of us. Siya ang pumalit kay Sir Rio sa ngayon.

We all brought our weapons with us since Sir informed us that we will train the whole day. Para makabawi daw kami sa mga absences namin.

Siguro napansin niya rin na panay na ang pagtatambay namin sa dorm.

Kanina pa kami nagmala action movie dito.

We haven't eaten since breakfast. She didn't give us breaks too. Kasali daw 'yon sa instructions na ibinigay ni Sir sa kanya.

Isang dagger ang bumagsak sa paanan ko.

Tinignan ko ang babaeng nakatingin sa'kin bitbit ang shield niya.

Kinuha ko ito saka binigay sa kanya. Tumango naman siya bago bumalik sa dati niyang kinatatayuan.

Suddenly, I was thrown at the wall.

Naramdaman ko kaagad ang impact nito dahilan na mapayuko ako pagbagsak ko sa sahig. I gasped for air and when I tried to breathe, my lungs would burst with pain.

Sa tingin ko may nafracture nga ako.

"Son of Poseidon. Don't get distracted while fighting." puna ng aurai.

I hissed and immediately got back up.

Kanina pa nanginginig yung tuhod ko but I'm still determined to stand up as if my whole body is not aching.

"Miss! Wala ba kaming break?" humihingal na tanong ni Chase.

"Your bones will if you keep complaining son of Hermes." inis niyang sagot.

Natumba na naman ako nang naramdaman ko ang matigas na kamao ng isang cyclope.

I just sighed and lied down. Wala na talaga akong planong bumangon. Napagdesisyunan ko nang magpretend dead hanggang sa matapos na ang training na'to.

This is exhausting.

I'm tired.

Napansin ko si Trev na nakaupo at nakasandal kaya tumabi rin ako sa kanya.

Dalawang lalaki lang ang present sa gitna since Cal is in the clinic accompanying Art. Who, unfortunately, ay nawalan na naman ng malay kaninang umaga. I felt bad for the guy.

"Manonood ka lang ba?" I asked him.

He just nodded and proceeded to watch... particularly the girl who is smiling while randomly moving enemies our of her way.

She seems to be having fun with Ria and Jamie na nakangiti rin. Nagawa pa talaga nilang magkaroon ng humor kahit lumalaban.

Girls will always be girls.

"Cesia is pretty."

I suddenly felt tension when he gave me a glare kaya natawa ako. But I halted when my lungs throbbed painfully.

Tsk.

I let out air and continued to watch the girls. Halatang pagod na sila. But they still managed to talk their way out of the exhaustion.

Cesia got my attention though. No malice. Naalala ko lang kasi yung dati. Yung una ko siyang nakita para kunan ng ID. She even got threatened.

That's why I tried my best to make her feel comfortable here. Ayokong magkaroon siya ng bad impression.

And looking at her now, alam kong hindi lang ako ang nakapansin sa malaking improvement niya.
