Descendants: Daughter of Poseidon

Proposition

"pero bago ang lahat, I need everyone's profile, kahit ang janitors, everyone involved in the special classes" sabi ko bago kami naghiwalay nang landas ni Seth. Chineck ko lahat nang rooms nang bawat level nang special classes nang academia pati na rin ang ibang facilities. But there was no sign of Light, Nathan or even Zeyad... To come and think of it, pati si Ciara hindi ko nakita. Pero ang pinaka pinagtaka ko, bakit walang klase? Where are the professors and coaches? At bakit nagkalat ang mga estudyante?

Nagkita kami ni Seth sa tapat nang Gents Dorm, isinama nya ko papaakyat sa kwarto nila ni Light... It was emitting all sorts of colors, may mga bagay doon na ngayon ko lang nakita sa buong buhay ko...

What are these things?

"you wont believe what I saw in the records" sabi nya habang itinuturo ang kung ano mang bagay iyon, there were names of student in there, so I'm guessing... This is where they keep our profile.

Nakita ko ang pangalan ko doon along with my pictures just like the others. Hindi ko mapigilang hindi mamangha dito.

"don't you find it odd? Na ang bawat estydyante dito... Walang kapatid."

"which only means... There's a corresponding demigod for each gods and goddesses." I dreaded for this realization to come, all along I knew I had it in me... Ayaw ko lang talagang tanggapin sa sarili ko, because it was as it is... A lot of information para mai-digest ko.

"its a trap."

"ipaliwanag mo nga kung anong tumatakbo dyan sa isip mo, you can't fight this battle alone Leera." he's right, but some things are just to confidential to be exposed... After all, right from the start I had a vibe that this place is something

"the only thing you need to know id that. We need to get everyone down here up. We need to leave Academia. Akala ko nung una it was placed in the middle of the island para malapit sa lahat nang regions nang isla, but no. It was placed in the middle for a purpose, and you wouldn't want to know it Seth, you might be a son of a death deity, but you know yourself too well that the death isn't your forte" hindi na nakipagtalo sa akin si Seth sa akin. He quickly folded that magical thing into a smaller peice at kumuha nang isang sling bag. He placed other stuff inside his bag.

Inunahan ko na syang tumayo, pero sa pagtayo ko may nalaglag sa akin... Yung sirenang bakal na nasa music box ko... At sa segundong nakita ko iyon, nakaramdam ako nang kakaibang takot... Agad ko iyong dinampot. Bumaba na kami ni Seth and gathered as much students we can.

Wala naman kaming sinabing kakaiba, ang sinabi lang ni Seth bibisita kami sa Regular Classes agad silang sumunod. Maybe they were stuck here for so long na gusto nalang nilang umalis...

After all, this place is a prison. Ngunit bago pa man kami makarating sa lift, na tanging daan lang paakyat sa regular classes... I saw Ciara and Zeyad na nakaharang doon. Zeyad was smiling brightly habang nakasandal sa likod nya si Ciara... I just know it was her for some reason.

Simula na nang madugong laban.

CIARA

*few hours earlier*

Pinatawag nanaman ako sa office ng dean of students... At gaya nang palaging nangyayari, nakakatulog ako... Why is that I always sleep when I'm here

I was sitting in front of Mrs. Winchester. I can see her smile despite of the cover on the lower part of her face. Oo matagal na kong naki-creep out sa kanya, but this time it's even more creepier than ever.

Umupo ako nang maayos, pupunasan ko dapat ang basa sa gilid nang labi ko, when I noticed that there are chains around may wrists...

Ang heirloom

"ang cliche man pakinggan, but are you looking for this?" sabi nya sa pag angat nya sa heirloom. I dont know what she wants, but that thing can kill me, even I can due using that thing, after all im not a pure god yet. I'm just a heiress to underworld's throne.

"why is it that you always sleep in my office? Umaasa ka bang sa pagising mo may magbabago? Perhaps... May maalala kang bago? Do you want that Ciara? You want to remember do you? I can help you with that... Only if you'd help me with something"

"anong kailangan mo sa akin?" pagtatanong ko dito.

"i want you to team up with me. After all, we live by the same... proposition." damn it. She's been reading me ever since, kaya lagi nya akong ipinapatawag sa office nya. She's been inside my head!

"I'm not like you." mariin kong sinabi, I started breaking out from the chains pero walang nangyayari.

" but you are dear. I admired how you found your way in the underworld, it took you seconds para mapasunod ang kahit sinong estudyante dito sa academia just like how you wanted it, but outside academia, I believe you will be needing my help. And together... We'll rule the island, and then the whole world... Gaya nang gusto mo" there's no doubt in that, but I have my purpose. I have a proposition to create a better world and rebuild the ruins

Hindi naman ako ganun kasama

At kahit na hindi nya sabihin sa akin ang lahat nang plano nya, I know that it would cause no good.

"mag-isa ka. I WILL NOT SHARE THE THRONE TO ANYONE" giit ko dito

"let me guess... Siguro sobrang saya mo when your sister Dysphoria Died... Oh oo nga pala, you can't remember anything? Poor soul" Dysphoria? Who's dysphoria?

"lets do a bargain for now... Don't let my students get in that Lift, and i'll spare you some of your memories" bago pa man ako makasagot sa kanya, may binuksan syang vial na may lamang pulbura at hinipan ito sa direksyon ko. I choked a bit, at nawala na nang tuluyan ang mga bakal na nakalagay sa akin...

Ang sakit nang ulo ko...

Natumba agad ako pagkatayo ko... It almost seemed impossible, but some of my memories are crawling back...

"dont worry, those memories are real." sa bawat pagpikit ko, i saw different faces flashing imside my head...

Akala ko mawawala yung kay nathan, but it was still intact. Maya maya pa narinig kong may pinindot si Mrs. winchester at may pintuang bumukas revealing zeyad.

"so much for the drama Ciara" there was something in his voice... Hindi ito ang zeyad na nakilala ko.

"are you part of this?"

"How can I not be part of it?"
