Kabanata 18
Kings' Fight

Hindi maalis ang pangamba sa aking dibdib habang hinahawakan ang parte ng buhok kong naging puti. Hinatid ako ni Vian sa kwarto at kalauna'y umalis rin.

Halos sampung minuto akong nakatitig sa aking repleksyon sa salamin. Hindi ko alam kung bakit nagkaroon ako ng puting buhok pero siguro'y normal lamang ito.

Napalingon ako sa pintuan nang makarinig ng malalakas na katok. Agad ko itong binuksan at bumungad ang hinihingal na si Nion.

"Kapitana! We need you!" he exclaimed.

Nangunot ang noo ko, "Bakit? Anong nangyayari?" tanong ko.

"King Cassian and Captain, they're fighting!" he answered that made my eyes widen.

"What?!"

"You need to come with me and stop them!"

Hindi na ako nagdalawang isip at tumakbo kasunod ni Nion. Dinala niya ako papunta sa isang kwarto. Napahinto kami sa pintuan at mula sa kinatatayuan nami'y rinig na rinig ang pagbanggaan ng espada sa loob.

I tried to open the door but it was lock. Dumating rin sina Cleve, Artius at Vian. I looked at Artius and I know that he already know what I'm thinking.

"I just hope Kapitan won't scold me." aniya bago pumwesto sa harap ng pintuan.

With his strong legs, he easily broke the door with his kick. Tumilapon ang pinto at bumungad sa amin si King Cassian at Lexus na nagtututukan ng espada. They both look so messed up, even the whole room.

May maliit na mesa na nakabaliktad na sa gilid at ang isang upuan ay wasak rin.

"You'll regret this!" Lexus shouted at King Cassian.

"No. Not ever, pirate!"

They began clashing their swords again. Parang hindi nila kami napapansin dahil sa kagustuhan nilang masaktan ang isa't-isa.

"Artius, stop them!" utos ko kay Artius ngunit bago pa man niya mapigilan ang dalawa'y sinalubong na siya ng pagbabanta ni Lexus.

"Don't dare interfere, Artius!" banta nito sa kanya dahilan para hindi nakagalaw si Artius.

The whole room was filled with their rumble. Lexus pushed King Cassian on the wall and attacked him with his swords but the King managed to dodge it.

"Stop it!" sigaw ko ngunit parang hindi lamang nila ako narinig.

Nagbanggaan ang kanilang mga espada. Their strength was even and no one backed out. King Cassian almost hit Lexus' neck, good thing Lexus was able to bow down and later targeted King Cassian's legs.

Napapikit ako nang mahiwa ang bente ni King Cassian. I pulled Nion and told him to stop the two but he just shook his head and hide on my back.

I looked at Vian and figured that she has nothing to do with it too. King Cassian and Lexus has the same built of body that's why it is hard to stop them especially that they have swords and trying to kill each other.

Napaatras kaming apat nang tumilapon sa harapan namin ang carpet na hinila ni King Cassian mula sa paanan ni Lexus.

Napahiga si Lexus sa sahig at hawak pa rin ang kanyang espada.

"How dare you use my Queen! You damn rotten King!" Lexus hissed.

"She offered it free, no one forced her!" singhal naman sa kanya ni Haring Cassian.
