Aerilon Academy

14' The Guardian Angel

Tha little angel healed Luel's wounds. Inangat niya ang tingin niya sa mga kasamahan ni Luel.

They were all shocked to meet the gaze of heavenly blue eyes. Mas lalo lang silang namangha sa kauna-unahang anghel sa Aerilon.

"Hi!" Masayang bati ng anghel.

Napa-irit si Zia dahil sa gulat. Nakakapagsalita ba talaga ang mga anghel? Nanlaki ang mata ng angel sa irit. He stood up, kaya naman nacute-an si Arenspade. Kawaii, she thought.

"Ikaw ba ang sphinx ni Luel?" Tanong ni Zian.

The angel formed an 'o' in his mouth. Am I a sphinx? Is that what I'm called? Tanong ng anghel sa sarili niya. Is sphinx my name?

Nagkibit-balikat ang anghel, at nagsalita gamit ang batang boses, "Luel needed my help and unconciously summoned me. She's in her hunger state as a vampire."

Summon? Isip ni Zach. Ibig sabihin ba noon ay sphinx talaga ni Luel etong anghel?

"Excuse me, but where are we?" Tanong ng batang anghel. "Anong realm po ito?"

"Realm?" Hindi makapaniwalang tanong ni Zian. "Hoy totoy. Iisa lang ang realm. Nasa Aerilon ka, baka gusto mo pang bumalik sa kaluluwa ni Luel."

The angel made a face. He pouted while his forehead creased.

Kawaii! Isip ni Arenspade at Zia.

Hindi naman ako galing sa soul ni Luel. She summoned me! Isip nong anghel at naguguluhan sa sinabi ni Zian.

"Oh, you've been bitten, right?" Tanong ng anghel. Tumango naman si Zach nang makitang sa kaniya nakatingin ang angel.

"Don't worry. Nothing will happen to you. The bite was not really deep, if it was, baka nadamay ang pulso mo sa leeg. She'll return to her normal state once she has awaken," paliwanag ng anghel.

"Anyway, since you're her sphinx. Bakit siya may dugong bampira?" Tanong ni Arenspade.

The little angel looked at him with bright eyes. "It was in her blood since birth."

"Since Birth?!?!?!" Hysterical na tanong na naman ni Zian. Tinapunan naman siya ni Arenspade ng masamang tingin. Napaka-ingay talaga kahit kailan.

"That's impossible! It takes a long ritual to be a vampire. Paano niya nagawang since birth may vampire blood siya, ano 'yon, majik?" Muling tanong ni Zian.

Tumango naman ang anghel, what was wrong with having vampire blood? Was it unusual for them?

"Mapapagkatiwalaan ba natin si Luel, Zach?" Tanong ni Zia habang nakatingin sa sugat na natamo ni Zach mula sa kagat niya.

"What if she's a spy?" Dagdag pa niya.

Umiling naman si Zach. "Hindi siya espiya, Zia. I'm sure of that. Kailangan lang natin siyang bantayan, and trust her."

"She can be trusted," nagulat naman sila nang magsalita ang anghel.

"I can feel her emotions. She feels lost, please help her go through it. Trust her, and gain her trust after," sabi pa ng anghel.

Dahil isang dakilang epal si Zian, kumontra na naman siya. "Hoy! 'Wag mo kaming inuutusan baka kami'y inuuto mo lang ha. Totoy ka palang, pwede kitang pabagsakin."

Bumingisngis ang batang anghel, "Bagay sa'yo kapangyarihan mo. Air elemental ka hindi ba?"

"Oh e' ano naman ngayon?"

"Mahangin ka," natatawang wika ng anghel kaya't humagalpak na rin ng tawa si Arenspade at Zia. Nanlaki ang mata ni Zian, at akmang aatakihin na ang anghel.

Pinigilan naman siya ni Zach, "Zian, 'wag na bata."

"Ulul, anong bata? E' hindi naman 'yan bata! Sphinx 'yan. Anghel! Sphinx!"

"The Aerilonians vision is to protect sphinxs, Zian. Huwag kang masyadong magpadala sa pagka-pikon mo," seryosong sabi ni Zach.

Nanlumo naman si Zian, at napa-nguso nalang. Pikon? Hindi ako pikon!! Humagikhik si Arenspade nang makita ang mukha ni Zian. Tiningnan siya ng masama ni Zian kaya't binelatan niya naman ito.

"What happened in here remains here, Aryans. Bantayan niyo si Luel habang ire-report ko sa office ang nangyari. Don't do anything stupid, Zian," wika ni Zach, at mabilis na tinapalan ang kagat ni Luel sa leeg niya. Nagsuot na rin siya ng turtle neck na sweater para mas lalo iyong matapkan.

He looked one last time at Luel, before leaving the training room. Iniisip niya kung papaano makuha ang loob niya, she must have a lot of secrets inside.

༻❁༺

Zacharias knocked thrice on the Master's office.

Eksaktong break time nila ngayon, at paniguradong naroon ang lahat ng masters ng academy. Except for those who have errands, Zach assumes.

Pinagbuksan siya ng isang Earth elemental Master, named Benedict. Matagal na rin siyang nagtuturo sa academy, at kalimitan ay siya ang tagapagpayo ng mga Earth Elementals.

Pinapasok si Zach, at pinasadahan naman niya ng tingin ang lahat. Everyone was there, as expected.

"What brings you here, Zacharias?" Tanong ni Master Cros. As usual, mayroon siyang suot na yukata.

"We would like to start the mission tomorrow," sagot naman ni Zach, at napatingin naman ang lahat ng mga masters.

One asked, it was Helaena, the fire elemental lady master. "Why has Rofocale called her sphinx already?"

Tumango naman si Zach, "Her sphinx is an angel. I believe, the first among Aerilon's history. The angel's form is a little boy."

Napasinghap naman si Headmaster Blaizer, "An angel?"

"Impossible. Paano naman siya nagkaroon ng anghel? It was only written in the books," sabi naman ni Master Cros. He knew Luel and Sinclair, he knew that they had non-elemental powers. But he was more surprised of having a sphinx as an angel.

"Are you sure it's an angel?" Tanong naman ng isa pang air elemental master. Muli na namang tumango si Zach, "Yes. I am sure of it. I felt the holiness and the divinity of the being."

"Then, we'll check it. If it is true, you can proceed to your mission, Zacharias," wika naman ni Headmaster Blaizer. He was curious, as he did not know that angels were real.

Among the masters, one mentally smirked. What is an angel doing here in our realm? The master watched Zacharias, and the master knew that he was not lying. The master's first thought about Luel was true. She is not an Aerilonian by blood. Kung gayon, paano siya nagkaroon ng anghel bilang sphinx?

The master tapped it's seat, and thought, it is about time that I do my plans.

Tiningnan niya ang misyon na gagawin ng team Aryan, kung saan kabilang si Luel. This is where the master would start the plans. If it succeeds, then ipapagpatuloy niya ang kaniyang plano.

Kailangan niya lang makumpirma na galing nga sa ibang realm si Luel at Sinclair. Kailangan niya lang malaman.
