After All The Raindrops (MOST PAINFUL BATTLE #1)

23

We've been here in Alas' safe house for a couple of weeks already, so I can't help but get to know them all. Now, I got a better understanding of the Alpha Team, and how they work.

Viper is the type of person who is quiet, and he will only speak when he will say something important. He's an observer, and a very reliable soldier. He is the sniper of their group. He can also fight close to the enemy, but he's not good enough unlike Spartha.

Spartha is good at close combat, he's a fighter. A great fighter to be exact, every time they are on a mission. He is the one who is called "On the front lines", because he is literally always at the front because of his ability to fight and how he avoid bullets.

Alas is the brain of the group, his talent is balance. He knows how to shoot and fight in close quarters, but he is the brainiest of all. Kayo na lang ang mapapahanga sa angking talino na meroon siya, because he calculated all their missions, he can calculate all. I can say that he is the reason why the Alpha Team is undefeated.

As for the Captain, he's the one who's good at everything, he's the one you know you can count on wherever you put him. He is good at fighting and he is good at shooting.

Dred, on the other hand, is good at using a gun, he's a sharp shooter, he's not a sniper like Viper, but when he holds a gun and targets something, it really hits.

What they all have in common is that they are not afraid to sacrifice their lives for the country, which is a bit sad for me because I can't get to the point where I will lose Dred because of the country.

Other than that? Wala na'kong alam sa kanila, aside from Spartha na ang pangalan ay Aziel.

"Sheng, tumawag sa'kin si Max."

Napalingon kaming lahat nang magsalita papalapit sa Spartha. Aside from that, nalaman ko rin na ang nickname ni Sharine is Sheng, hindi ko na siya tinatawag na Sheng dahil hindi naman kami ganuon ka close. So far si Captain and Spartha lang ang narinig kong tumawag sa kanila ng ganuon.

Sharine looked at Spartha. "She's been calling me kung ayos lang ba daw tayo," she said, habang nanunuod ng TV. "I and I said yes, knowing her? Mamimilit yun, might as well na huwag muna siya kausapin. Tyaka na kapag maayos na lahat. Para hindi na siya madamay," seryosong sabi ni Sharine.

Sila Papa naman ay madalas nasa kwarto lang dahil may TV naman, at cr sa kwarto na tinuluyan nila kaya hindi na sila gaano lumalabas.

Alas looked at Sharine. "Tell her na huwag muna siyang tumawag sa'tin for her own safety, pag hindi nakinig hayaan mo siyang mamatay," biro ni Alas.

Mabilis na tumawa ang buong Alpha Team, samantalang masamang tumingin si Sharine kay Alas. Hindi naman makatawa ng maayos si Spartha dahil mukang magagalit si Sharine.

Masamang tumingin ako kay Dred na mabilis nanahimik. "She's my friend, subukan mong tumawa," bulong ko.

He just smiled, and kissed my shoulder. "I didn't laugh."

Captain looked at Sharine. "Magpadala ba'ko nang magbabantay kay Maxine, in case of emergency?" tanong ni Captain.

Spartha looked at Captain. "Mas maigi."

Alas looked at his laptop. "Nata-track ko pa rin kung saan pumupunta si Maxine, so I guess if ever na may mangyayari alam naman natin, saan siya babawiin."

I looked at Alas. "Why did you do that? Wala na siyang privacy if ginawa niyo 'yan."

Dred looked at me. "Love, kasi minsan na silang napahamak nila Sharine ng dahil sa'min. Marami kasi kaming nakalaban, and hindi maiiwasan na yung mga malalapit sa amin ang balikan." I nodded and smiled, naiintindihan sila.
