Ice’s POV

[Awhile, Before the first Dance]

Pumasok ako sa CR, pagkaalis ko sa table namin nila Sine. Pumasok muli ako sa isang cubicle, at tsaka umupo roon. Inalis ko ang mask ko at panandalian kong pinikit ang mga mata ko. Kailangan kong kumalma. Kailangan kong magisip.

Ilang minuto rin akong nakapikit nang naramdaman kong may kumatok sa cubicle ko.

“Ice,” boses ng taong nasa labas. “Si Deniel 'to, may kailangan akong sabihin sayong napakaimportante ngayon.”

“Gaano kaimportante?”

“Buhay ng mga estudyanteng nandito ngayon sa loob ng amphi.”

Bigla akong lumabas.

“I knew it Ice, I knew it, Icy. And we need your help. Ayokong maraming madamay.”

Binigyan ko siya ng isang nagtatanong na tingin.

“By the way, Skie Annika wanted to say sorry to you. She was forced to tell her the truth. And she's sorry for that. Dinakip siya ng dalawang araw, and the only way to save her life is to tell who is behind the crystal mask.”

Bigla akong nanlumo sa sinabi niya. Nagkamali ako sayo, Skie Annika. Nagkamali akong makakailangan kita. Ikaw rin pala ang maglulugmok sakin sa huli. It was a wrong move. Sana talaga, pinatay nalang kita.

Skie Annika' POV

I was kidnapped, three days before the Prom. I don't know who are they and what they are up to? All I know is I'm so scared. I am not a gangster, like other do. I just know a lot of informations about Underground World.

“Please palayain niyo ako! I-I will give what you want. What do you want, money? Car? Pleaaaase!” I begged while crying.

“Hi, Annika. Beverly's Heir.”

Lumabas sa pintuan ang isang babae. Habang papalapit siya... namumukhaan ko siya.

“D...Diamond? Y-you're alive! Please save me! Please!”

“Hmmm... Hahaahahaha!” She bursted in laughter na ikinanganga ko. What? Is this my friend or not?

“Sorry dear, I'm not your friend Diamond. By the way, I am Frea, Diamond's twin sister.”

What?!

“I gathered information about you like two days or three days ago? And I knew everything about you.” I stopped crying while she speaks. “So, kumusta maging kaibigan ang kapatid ko?” tanong niya. “Mabait ba siya?!” she smirked. “Dear, alam mo bang papatayin ka sana niya?”

“What?!”

“You must thank Icy. Dahil sa kanya, namatay si Diamond, hindi natuloy yung balak ng kapatid ko na patayin ang malalakas at mayayamang imperyo dito sa Pilipinas, at isa ang pamilya mo dun, gaga.”

I can't absorbed those information right now. She tried to kill me? How?! Why?!

“Hindi ka makapagsalita 'no? Nashock ka ba, bess?! Hahahahaha! Eeeww, bess?! Yuck. Hay, okay enough with these comedy. Miss Beverly, do you love your life?!” Lumapit siya sakin, dito sa may sofa sa loob ng isang bahay at itinutok sa ulo ko ang kanyang baril.

I started to cry in fear.

“ANSWER!”

“Ahh—haa...” I cried out loud, “y-yes, I- I love my life... Please don't kill me.”
