Altaire Sullivan 2016, 1 AM.

Tumatagaktak ang pawis ko. Maybe I've been running for almost 15 minutes. Someone is after me carrying their guns. I passed two streets at di pa rin sila tumitigil. Hindi ko na maramdaman ang mga paa ko at hinahabol ko na ang hininga ko but I can't stop right now if I did papatayin nila ako...

"Takbo bata," sabay paputok ng baril ng nakaitim na lalaki.

I think I was able to escape pero...

"Huli ka bata!" another man appeared sa madilim na bahagi ng eskenita sabay suntok sa tiyan ko dahilan ng pagbagsak ko.

He's stepping my head down to the ground I can not feel my legs pero ramdam ko ang sakit ng tiyan ko. I can not see their faces they are just wearing black tuxedoes. I really didn't know na ito na pala yung end ng journey ko facing a fear of death all i can do was to hear my breath, in and out.

"Kung hindi ka sana tumakbo at nagpahuli kana lang, edi sana di ka pa nasaktan," he smirked.

They laughed at me in evil manner habang dinidikdik nila ang muka ko sa lupa. Nanghihina na ang katawan ko at halos di ko na maigalaw kaya't di ako makapalag man lang.

A moment later naramdaman kong tinanggal niya ang pagkakapak sa muka ko kasabay ng pagdating ng isang kotse.

My eyelids opened a bit at nakita ko ang isang black Mercedes Bench S-class, maya-maya bumaba sa kotse ang isang lalaking mukang may edad na.
May tungkod siya sa kanang kamay, di ko alam kung tama ako ng nakikita dahil bumukas ang napakalakas na ilaw ng kotse na dahilan ng pagkasilaw ko.

"Ang tatanga ninyo!" The place filled the roaring voice of the old man. Hinahampas niya ang kaniyang tungkod sa humahabol sa akin kanina.

Is he trying to save me or is he scolding them dahil halos makatakas na ako? I'm not sure.

"Ang bobo ninyo! Ang sabi ko patayin ninyo agad hindi makipaglaro ng hide and seek!" Nanindig ang balahibo ko sa sinabi niya. My question is answered. He's here to kill me. Or to gave them permission to kill me.

One, two, three, four, five.... There are five of them here at kahit pa makatakbo ako dito ngayon mahahabol nila ako. Narinig ko ang yabag ng paa na patungo sa akin.

"Alam mo bata kung di lang sana nangialam. Oops! Mali pala mga magulang mo. Edi sana mabubuhay ka pa," he said as he pulled my head up. Now I know what are they came after me. Kung ako papatayin nila... what about my twin brother? I can't imagine na pati siya mararamdaman ang ganito.

"Hoy, sindihan mo nga 'to." The old man commanded sa isang alalay niya. Sabay sindi ng kanyang tobacco cigarettes.

"Fuck!!." I screamed in agony when he put the burning tip of the cigarettes into my left eye.

"Masakit ba?" He smirked. Obviously enjoying my pain. "Scream little boy! Walang makakarinig sayo, kung meron man kasabay mo nang mamamatay." He laughed like a maniac. "Akin na yung kutsilyo mo."

"AHH!!" I screamed in pain nang naramdaman kong binabalatan niya ang bawat daliri ko na parang isang mangga.

"Ituloy ninyo 'to pagkatapos niyo paglaruan patayin niyo, sigurdong patay at itapon ninyo sa ilog or what so ever just don't leave any traces." He commanded. Naramdaman kong gumulong na ang gulong ng kotse papalayo ng konti dahilan para mawala ang nakatutok na ilaw sa akin.

"And by the way, bata sabihan mo si satanas, nangangamusta si VANCOON"

All I can do was to scream ng maramdaman kong tinatangal nila ang kuko ko sa bawat daliri. My finger throbbed in pain. Pain.

Excruciating pain.

Memories flashbacks when I see my brother at mga magulang namin. Di ko maisip na pati ang kapatid ko mararanasan 'to. All I can do was to scream while I think of them.Ganto nalang magtatapos ang lahat, mamamatay akong walang kasalanan. This was the unfair reality of good and evil.

I can sense that one man behind me was making his gun ready anytime to its pull the trigger. Anytime he will be pointing into my forehead those caliber 45 gun. Ito na yon wala na akong magagawa I closed my eyes accepting the fact that I am a dead man now.

When they pull the trigger it ends here. A few moments later I can hear the last sound I can hear the sound of the trigger being pulled as I caught my very last breath. What happens next? I didn't know now....
