Midnight Angels: The War

Chapter 56

"Is something going on?" Tanong ni Ash at tiningnan si Zia.

"Yes, Kuya Ash. A war is going on so let's not mind the little stuff at dapat handa na kayong lahat, okay? Make me proud." Nakangiti niyang sabi sa mga 'to at tsaka tumingin sa kalangitan na puno ng kadiliman. Zia then felt her heart and calmed herself down, that way, the place wasn't so dark and gloomy.

"All of you already know how to handle them. Best of luck, Midnight Angels. The war is coming, make sure you'll win," Zia said as she turned around, her golden robe shining even without any reflection from light. Everyone just looked at how gracefully she walked towards the Hunters at nakita nila mismo ang tingin na binigay ni Zia kay Lesis.

Lesis bravely looked at her and stood up.

"Trust me, I'd cut my hair off if I prove to you that what you're doing is ridiculous. Creatures like you are so selfish. You're just like Drake." Ramdam ni Zia ang galit sa boses ni Lesis habang nagsasalita ito. Zia made sure that Lesis' voice couldn't be heard from the team's direction kaya ngumiti nalang si Zia kay Lesis at hinawakan ang balikat nito.

"Rest." Mahinahong sabi ni Zia habang nakahawak sa mga balikat ni Lesis at sa simpleng hawak na 'yun ay bigla nalang nakatulog si Lesis kaya agad siyang sinalo nina Lezo at Wesy. Tiningnan agad ni Zia si Lezo.

"Take him somewhere to cool him down. Aalis muna ako," aniya at binaling ang tingin kay Wesy.

"Please stay here with them until I get back. Uno won't strike without me." Dagdag niya at tumango naman si Wesy bilang sagot kaya tumalikod na si Zia pero hinawakan ni Wesy ang balikat niya dahilan para tingnan siya nito muli. "I'm—"

"Will you try to stop me too?" Zia asked him but Wesy just huffed and shook his head.

"No, I'm just glad I met the first version of you, the second, and the third." Naningkit ang mga mata ni Zia sa sinabi ni Wesy sa kanya pero ngumiti rin siya rito. "I'm glad I met you too, Wesy," aniya at tumalikod na tsaka naglakad papunta sa tabi ni Blu.

Zia leaned in to kiss his cheeks before vanishing without a word.

"Gusto ko rin ng kiss ni Zia," sabi ni Audin at tsaka mahinang sinampal ang pisngi ni Blu na hinalikan ni Zia at sinampal narin ang sarili niya. Sinapo nalang ni Reed ang mukha niya dahil sa ginawa ni Audin.

"You're crazy," aniya kaya tinaasan lang siya ng kilay ni Audin.

"Baliw lang ang ayaw sa kiss ng isang Zia Muirgen. Almost everyone here wants to hug and kiss that lady," sabi ni Audin kaya nagkatinginan pa ang team. Tumingin narin si Wilder kay Shinshi.

"What? I love hugging, Zizi. Mabango siya," sabi ni Shinshi kahit wala pang sinasabi si Wilder. Wilder agreed that Zia actually smelt good even for a demon like him. Xy went on to discuss about what they're going to do habang nakatingin lang si Wesy sa kanila.

Xy was very focused on telling them about the plan at nung tapos na siya ay tsaka siya lumingon kay Wesy na nasa gilid lang.

"'San ba pumunta 'yung kapatid ko?" Tanong ni Xy kay Wesy.

"She never really tells me what she's up to. Ang sabi niya lang may pupuntahan siya. I don't really like asking her about what she's doing. Cute tingnan 'yun pero mainitin ang ulo nun." Tinaasan lang ni Xy ng kilay si Wesy dahil sa sinabi nito.

"I know about that because she's my sister," sabi ni Xy at mahina lang natawa si Wesy.

"You really know her that much?" Tanong niya rito dahilan para maningkit ang mga mata ni Xy.
