(General)

Minulat ni Gwen ang mga mata. May ilaw sa tapat ng paanan nya. Maputi ang bawat haligi.

Nasaan ako? She asked to herself as she move her eyes around.

May babaeng nakatayo habang nakasandal sa pader malapit sa pinto. Unti-unti itong lumapit sa kanya.

"Sinugod ka dito." Hayag ng babaeng si Claire. Inalala ni Gwen ang mga pangyayari. Miguel shot him as his men drag Vien, Ella and her best friend Veronica.

"Where are they?" Tanong ni Gwen. Claire and Sarah both exchange looks. "Miguel kidnapped them. Now, authorities are looking for them" Sarah pursed her lips as she state the happenings.

"Angela and Maricris are waiting outside. I think alam na ng magulang nila ang nangyari, and they wanted to talk to you" Claire informed Gwen.

"Bakit daw?—Argh!" Bumalikwas ng bangon si Gwen ngunit sumintog ang kaliwang braso nya, kung saan ito ang tinamaan ng bala kanina.

"Gwen, you're not okay. Rest ka muna." Pakiusap ni Sarah.

Dinampi ni Gwen ang kanyang palad sa kanyang noo. "How?! Uncle kidnapped my cousin, my best friend and my girlfriend, Sarah! Kung sana hindi ko sinunod ang idea na tumakbo sa isip ko, hindi ito mangyayari" nag sisising saad ni Gwen. Sarah pursed her lips before glancing to Claire.

"Gwen, it could still happen. It wasn't your idea right? It is ours. I put you in danger that night. I made you do it. Don't think that this is only your idea and non of this wouldn't happened if we didn't start the endgame!" Frustrated na sigaw ni Claire.

"Guys, stop fighting. We started this, so we will end it. No matter what" final na sabi ni Sarah.

"Correct. But we need to get out of here because Headmaster's men are coming" inform ni Jack.

"How? She's not okay pa" nag-aalalang sabi ni Sarah habang sumusulyap sa nakahigang si Gwen.

"I'm gonna go and call a doctor, just to check you, okay?" Nakangiting sabi ni Sarah ngunit bakas sa mata nito ang pag-aalala. "No, just stay here." Pigil ni Claire.

"I need to tell something" anas ni Jack. "About the late respond of the securities inside the mall." Dagdag pa ng lalaki.

"Hostage ang ginawa ng mga tauhan ni Headmaster sa mga security sa loob ng mall. All of them, just to kidnapped your girlfriend. That's why, huling nag responde ang mga guards. Lumalabas na si Charissa lang dapat ang kikidnappin. But your best friend and your cousin was also there kaya kinuha na rin nila. Raegan followed them, at sa dating hide out dinala ang tatlong babae."

"Asan na si Raegan?" Gwen asked. "On her way here." Sagot ni Anj. "But, like I said, it's not safe here Gwen" sabad ni Claire.

"While Angela was talking to the authorities, I saw Astrid. She is one of your Uncle's men kasama na din si Alvin. I think they're looking for us. Any minute pwede silang magpunta dito maraming madadamay. We need to get out of here as soon as possible" paliwanag ni Claire.

"Sino si Astrid? And Alvin?" Gwen asked. "They are your father's policemen inside the government. Mga tauhan din sila ng Uncle mo. Kaya delikado tayo dito." Sagot ni Claire. The three nod.
