#TCS26: Keep Your Aim Locked

Amythee Hope's POV

Two weeks later...

Funny how time flies so fast. It was already two weeks since we started this deadly, tiring and unbearable training, and to tell you, it was more than a surprise that we are still going and we are still alive.

Hindi ko malaman ano bang meron sa 'min at hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin kami nasuko.

The first week was the hardest. Ang dami ko ring iniyak 'nun ng patago at halos ayaw nang sumunod sa 'kin 'nung katawan ko. We have different sets of exercise and training each day. But some of it are repetitive and connected to everything we've done so far.

I thought our first day's training was the hardest, but nope. The second day was burning hell. Inulit namin 'yung first day no'n pero dinagdagan ng mga kung ano anong exercise at lessons. Every day was a level up.

Himala nga rin na parang sanay na 'yung katawan ko sa bugbog. I was getting used to the tiredness. Although my muscles were sore, it felt like it wasn't. The command thing too, we were able to master it.

Even the boys learned how to do it properly. We were beginning to get the hung of it. But there are new challenges every day. I couldn't even count how many times I thought of giving up and just quietly walk away from here.

Ganun kalala 'yung epekto 'nung training namin. Sobrang hirap. Sobang sakit.

But we still kept going... who are we to complain though... alam ko naman sa sarili ko na para sa 'min 'tong ginagawa nina Rebel.

Nagpapahinga na kami ngayon, break time namin. 30 minutes break time, tapos babalik na ulit kami sa set of exercise na ginagawa namin. Which is rescuing hostages and locating the enemies.

Real life situations. Luna and the elite seven are freaking good actors there. 'Yung kabog ng puso ko kapag nakakaharap ko sila sa rescue circumastance tapos sila 'yung kalaban? Pakiramdam ko nalalaglag 'yung puso ko mula sa dibdib ko.

The aura. The power. The terror.

I could feel it strongly. I could feel myself wanting to run away, being stoned in my place, shaking without being able to process what's going on.

Doon ko narealize kung bakit kilala ni Luna ang mga Evans. Kung bakit nagpapakita ang mga Evans sa kan'ya pero sa 'min hindi.

Luna's power was too strong for us. Too intimidating. She was too much too handle. At kung hindi namin mapapantayan si Luna, hindi na kami aasang makita pa 'yung mga hinahanap namin.

It was clear now. After everything. It's slowly falling into place.

I let out a big sigh.

"Tired?" Narinig kong imik ni Pierce. I shook my head lightly.

"Marami lang iniisip." I retorted while looking at the sky.

Masasabi ko na rin na mas kilala ko na si Pierce ngayon kaysa dati. Mas naging close na rin kami. Pati na rin 'yung ibang magkakapartner. Even Harper and Cleon who were always bickering in the first few days, became dependable partners.

Right now, I could see Cleon placing salonpas on Harper's shoulder.

"Like?" Pierce continued his questions.

"When we'll be able to complete this training." I answered honestly, and faced him. He gave me a small smile, and patted the seat beside him. Sumunod ako sa gusto n'ya iparating.
