Umbra Inferis #1: That Possessive Mafia Boss

Chapter 85

   Mas dapat na unahin ang pinakamalaking toxic- si Samson.

    Pero hindi basta-bastang magpapakita si Samson. Pahirapan ang lahat sa paghuli ng matabang daga na ito.

    Nagkuwentuhan ang grupo ngunit ang mga mata ay nakatuon sa paligid. They look like they'll just gonna attend an event with no intentions at all.

   Normal na normal ang lahat kung kumilos. Akala mo'y walang mga hidden agendas. Masyadong magaling magtago ang iba. Ilang sandali nalang din naman ay magsisimula na ang pinakamadugong mafia war na mangyayari sa kasaysayan.

    Watch and you'll see.

"First things first
I'ma say all the words inside my head
I'm fired up and tired of the way that things have been, oh ooh
The way that things have been, oh ooh"

"Second thing second
Don't you tell me what you think that I can be
I'm the one at the sail, I'm the master of my sea, oh ooh
The master of my sea, oh ooh"

"Yeah, I'm the master of my sea," sang-ayon ni Louie sa kanta na pumailanlang. Napangisi siya.

    Let's get this party started, Villaruel.

"You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
(Pain, pain)
You break me down, you build me up, believer, believer
(Pain)"

"Oh let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from
(Pain)
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer"

   Mas lalong lumalawak ang ngisi ni Louie sa tuwing nakikita ang mga pinsan niyang walang kamuwang-muwang sa mangyayari. Nakakaawa sila. Ni hindi man lang nila alam na pinapaikot lang pala sila. At pagdating ng panahon, gagawin silang alipin na lamang ni Samson.

"Shit! Mukhang nahuli na nga talaga sina Hades at Nyx. Dehadong dehado tayo nito," nababanas na wika ni Amelynx.

"Malamang. Hindi tanga si Samson. At hindi siya papaniwalaan nina lola at lolo kung ganiyan siya kahina sa pag-arte. Wala talaga tayong magagawa kundi lusubin ang buong lugar. Hatiin mo sa tatlong platoon ang mga tauhan, Amelynx."

"Third things third
Send a prayer to the ones up above
All the hate that you've heard has turned your spirit to a dove, oh ooh
Your spirit up above, oh ooh"

"I love this song already," komento ni Spade. Louie grinned, not expecting Spade to have an opinion same as hers.

"Sobra," wika ni Louie at napatuwid ng tayo nang marinig ang pag-tunog ng feedback ng mikropono.

    Sandaling natigil ang lahat sa ginagawa at naituon ang paningin sa stage.

"I was choking in the crowd
Building my rain up in the cloud
Falling like ashes to the ground
Hoping my feelings, they would drown
But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing
Inhibited, limited
'Til it broke up and it rained down
It rained down, like"

"A pleasant evening to all of us! I hope everyone's having a good time being in here," ani ng ginang na bagama't may edad na ay sobrang sopistikada at ganda pa ring tignan. Her smile was radiant, as if it wasn't corrupted in a dark world that she's living.

"M-ma..."

    Lubhang nagulat si Louie nang makita ang ina niyang humigit isang dekada niyang hindi nasilayan. Ni hindi ito tumanda.

"You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
(Pain, pain)
You break me down, you built me up, believer, believer
(Pain)
I let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from
(Pain)
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer"

"Last things last
By the grace of the fire and the flames
You're the face of the future, the blood in my veins, oh ooh
The blood in my veins, oh ooh"

"We are all gathered here for Master Apollo Zion Montero's 76th birthday. So without further ado, let us call on our birthday celebrant!"

      An old man wearing a gray westernized suit came out, smiling and waving his hand to the crowd. Sinalubong siya ng anak at inilalayan. Kahit na nakangiti ito ay nagsusumigaw ng kapangyarihan at pagkadominante ang kabuuan niya.

   The man's composed demeanour screams of glory to be feared of.

"But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing
Inhibited, limited
'Til it broke up and it rained down
It rained down, like"

"You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
(Pain, pain)
You break me down, you built me up, believer, believer
(Pain)
I let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from
(Pain)
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer"

"Enjoy your moment, Apollo Zion Montero. Because this will be your last appearance and probably, your last birthday...."

    Hindi mawala-wala ang ngisi ni Samson habang nakatanaw sa karagatan ng mga tao.

"Maya-maya, iilan nalang sa inyo ang matitira. Mga hangal kayo, Nemesis Louie Montero."
