SAFIARA ACADEMY 2: DESTINY'S CHOICE

CHAPTER 33: All Hope Lost

3RD PERSON'S POV

Sa isang mahabang mesa ay may nakaupo na limang tao. They were all debating about something. fussing around, whispering and arguments clouded the room.

"We underestimated the girl"

"It was not like she was strong, nagkataon lang na may thread trap dun"

"I heard that she was Eris pretending to be the girl"

"That's impossible, walang rason para magpanggap siya"

"We need the book as soon as possible."

"I agree, baka magkaroon pa ng mas maraming problema pag tumagal ito"

Tumigil ang lahat sa pagsasalita nung biglang bumukas ang higanteng pinto. Pumasok ang isang babae at lalaki. Tension filled the air at tanging pag yapak lang ng heels na tumatama sa sahig ang naririnig. The woman was filled with overwhelming aura, her eyes were emotionless and dull. She had crimson red lipstick and the end of her long gown dragged upon the cold floor.

Dali-daling inayos ng lalaki ang upuan at inalalayanan ang babaeng umupo. When the woman sat down, the man knelt at her side waiting for orders. There was a long cold silence until the woman began to speak.

"I heard that there was a break out at the academy" The woman's voice was threatening but calm.

"Uhh yes, pero naayos na siya agad. People who try to go against the rules suffer in the chain room." sagot ni Evania Grigor, isang babae na pansamantalang namumuno sa academy. 

Ang Chain room ay isang kwarto kung saan pinapahirapan ang mga taong nagtatangkang tumakas o magsimula ng away laban sa awtoridad ni Evania. Ang iba ay hindi na nakakalabas ng buhay.

"Madame, this is all because of her carelessness. Kung hindi lang sila nagpadalos-dalos ni Hiro ay hindi sana maririnig ang plano." Sabi ng isa pang lalaki na kabilang sa apat na nakaupo sa mesa.

"Hindi po namin sinasadyang marinig kami, paumanhin" lumuhod si Evania sa harapan ng babae ngunit tingnan lang siya nito gamit ang mga malalamig na mata.

"You should know your place, ayusin mo ang pagpapatakbo sa academy habang hinahanap ang mga bata and while the preparation is still on-going" malaming na sabi ng isa sa mga babae na nakaupo sa mahabang mesa.

"Baka gusto mo naring gumaya kay Draco na iniwan ang council for his own wants and ended up being turned to ash?" nangungutyang tanong isang lalaki.

Biglang tumayo ang lalaking kanina pay nakaluhod sa gilid ng babae at tumabi kay Evania at lumuhod na rin, sunod na sunod ang paumanhin na naririnig sa dalawa.

"Hiro" sabi ng babae "totoo bang sinabi mo sa mga bata ang totoong nangyari sa kanilang mga lolo at lola?"

Hindi makapagsalita ang lalaki, kelan lang ay inutusan siyang kunin ang libro ngunit hindi siya nagtagumpay.

"Paumanhin po, paumanhin po" paghihingi niya ng tawad. "Akala ko po na mapapatay ko silang lahat. was too careless"

Everyone gasped when they saw him offer the sword to the woman.

"I am not worthy to be your servant kaya mas mabuti kung mamatay nalang ako" he dramatically stated to the woman. Deep down, alam niyang hindi iyon gagawin ng babae dahil siya lamang ang inaasahan buong buhay nito. 

He was smiling to himself

Surprisingly, the sword was plunged into the heart of the man named Hiro. Once again the room was filled was gasps and whispers. Evania Grigor could only watch in horror as she watched the man slowly dying with blood coming out of his mouth and wound.
