Fire Heart: Her Secret

Chapter 27

Daniella's POV

Seems like they know that girl, I should give them time. I'll just head to the library, I guess. As I turned my heels, bigla nalang may humila sakin at dahil sa kaba at gulat, nasuntok ko ang taong humila sakin.

"ANO BA!"

Nanlaki ang mata ko. He dodge the punch so fast..

Ash... 

Pumiglas ako. "Anong kailangan mo?" Tanong ko pero hinablot niya muli ang aking braso at hinila papunta kina Irene, William, David, Christian at don sa babaeng di ko kilala. Maputi ang kanyang buhok, maputi, abo ang mata at may dala na espada. She looks like a professional samurai. Nang makalapit na kami sa kanila, pumiglas na naman ako kay Ash na ngayo'y nakatingin sa magandang babae.

"Daniella, ang aura..." Napabuntong hininga ako at umiwas ng tingin. 

"I can't hide it anyway so yeah, I'm the one emitting the heavy aura." Nanlaki ang mata nila. Lumapit sakin si Irene. "Paano?!" Bakas sa mukha niya ang pagkagulat. Inilipat ko ang aking atensyon sa babae. Her aura, I must say, is very powerful. Since we're so close to each other, you can really tell that our auras overflowing.

"While I was in a trip, I trained myself." Nagsalubong ang kilay nila. 

"Are you the new member of the Supreme Team?" Tanong ng magandang babae sakin.

"Yes, miss." Ngumiti ako sa kanya. She seems kind.

"By the way, I'm Xenia Wilder. Nice to meet you." She smiles at inilahad ang kanyang kamay. 

"I am Daniella San Jose, nice to meet you too." Inalok ko ang kanyang kamay para makipagkamay. Ibinaling ko ang mata ko kay Irene.

"Bakit ang tahimik ninyo?" It's surprising that they're too quiet. They're loud you know so I am confused. "Ang aura mo kasi..... nakakatakot?" Nagsalubong ang kilay ko. Is that suppose to be a question or something? 

"Anong nakakatakot eh hindi naman ako mangangain." Pasikreto ko silang inirapan. I am not that bad, I just don't know how to supress this aura. Maybe I should've asked God Apollo about this, I've been focusing too much about my skills and magic.

"Why don't we go to the Council room since wala naman kayong klase. I want to get to know you more, Daniella." She smiled soI just let myself be dragged by them. I haven't even eaten yet, I am hungry. 

Naglalakad kami ngayon sa Council Room. Naiilang ako sa babaeng katabi ko. I'm not sure why, but her terrifying aura makes me think she's a former member of the Supreme Team. More importantly, many students seem to be scared of her. Pagdating namin doon ay agad ako pinaupo ng babae, ni Xenia sa swivel chair. "So, how was your stay here in Draginille Academy?" Malumay niyang tanong sakin. 

"It's okay, I guess? I haven't been here for too long." Napakamot ako sa aking leeg.

"Well, you'll enjoy it here. I promise you." Yeah, if you're talking about those damn envious students, I am really gonna enjoy my stay here. Notice my sarcasm there. Lumingon siya kay Christian. "Inaalagaan nyo naman ba siya ng mabuti?" Tanong niya but for some reason, I noticed them all gulp. "O-Oo naman! Diba D-Daniella?" Utal na tanong ni David. Oho, what's this? They're all scared of her? 

"Yes of course." Ngumiti muli si Xenia.

"Mabuti naman. Pwede ba magtanong?" Tumango ako kay Xenia. "Ano ang kapangyarihan mo?" That question left me frozen.

As much I want answer that question but letting them know that I am a fire mage may be a bit dangerous...

"Sorry but I can't tell you for now. You'll know it soon." Ngumiti ako kaya tumango siya.
