Kiana Louise Madrid
"W-What the hell?" Mabilis na lumaki ang mata ko ng maraming armadong lalaki ang lumabas mula sa isang itim na van. I looked at my back to see that it was being blocked also.
Mabilis kong hinanap ang aking cellphone nang makitang naglalakad na ang mga ito papalapit sa akin. I have a very bad feeling about this.
I bit my lower lip when I saw Uncle John playing with the gun that was in his hand. Is he going to kill me but why?
Medyo nakahinga lang ako ng maluwag nang mahawakan ang aking cellphone. I immediately dialed Aquilo's number, and because of nervousness nanginginig akong humawak sa steering wheel. Lalo akong kinabahan nang makitang sobrang lapit na nila.
"Damn it, Aquilo. Answer the phone please!"
My eyes shed tears when Aquilo didn't pick the phone up, they were near! Ilang hakbang na lang abot na nila ang pinto ng kotse. I silently plead with Aquilo to answer the phone, and after the fifth ring he finally picked it up.
"O-Oh my god, Aquilo. Aquilo h-help me plea—ahh!" To my horror, Uncle John furiously pulled me out of the car. Para lang akong bagay kung mahila niya. Tumilapon palayo ang cellphone ko na hindi ko pa natatapos ang aking sinasabi.
"I finally got you niece." Uncle John said before squeezing my jaw. Mangiyak-ngiyak akong kumawala sa kaniya bago umiling.
"Karina will surely be delighted if she saw you shedding tears because of fear. But don't worry, hihintayin muna natin ang hayop na si Aquilo bago ka namin patayin. Sounds good right?" Pinilit kong kumawala mula sa hawak nito kaso lang naramdaman ko ang isang malamig na bagay na tumutok sa aking sintido.
"One wrong move and your brain will scatter on this cold pavement." Hindi ko na mapigilang umiyak habang nagmamakaawang nakatingin kay Uncle John. Why is he doing this?
Gusto ko sanang sumigaw kaso lang hindi ko magawa. Pahigpit ng pahigpit ang hawak nito sa bibig ko na parang gusto na niyang tanggalin.
"It's time to sleep, Kiana Louise." Malamig na anito. Lumaki naman ang aking mga mata nang itaas niya ang hawak na baril. He smiled at me before chuckling.
"Now let's close that eyes of yours." He exclaimed before forcefully hitting my nape using the back of his gun making me lose my consciousness.
Imahe ni Aquilo ang huling pumasok sa isipan ko bago tuluyang kainin ng kadiliman.
Aquilo Thrasyllus Morocov
"Damn it!" Malakas kong sigaw bago mabilis na tumakbo palabas ng Madrid's Corporation. I knew this thing will happen. When I reach my car I immediately hop inside before driving to Kiana's location. I'm thankful that her GPS is on. While on the way I dialed Rogue's number.
"Aquilo."
"Send some man to the location that I'll send to you!"
"Urgent?"
"Code Red!" After it, I dropped the call bago mas binilisan ang pagpapatakbo ng aking kotse. Oh god, I hope nothing will happen to my Kiana Louise.
I mentally hissed nang makitang traffic pa. Everything is starting to piss me off. Galit kong dinampot ang aking cellphone ng magring ito. "What do you want Gunner?" Galit kong sigaw.
"On your left, Aquilo. Follow that alley and then turn right. It's a shortcut, you're very much welcome." Mabilis na anito bago binaba ang tawag.
Sinunod ko naman ang sinabi nito and that asshole is right shortcut nga ito. I mentally thanked him for showing me the right way.
"Fuck!" My eyes widened when I saw Kiana Louise's empty car. I hurriedly jumped out of my car before getting near her car.
"Shit!" Hindi ko mapigilang sabunutan ang aking buhok ng wala talagang Kiana Louise na makita. Her phone is already broken alongside her window shield.
My chest felt heavy when I saw some blood on the steering wheel. I squeeze my nose bridge before inhaling deeply.
"She's gone?" Bumaling ang tingin ko sa humahangos na si Rogue. I seriously look at him before nodding. Sumandal ako sa kotse dahil biglang nang hina ang katawan ko.
"Find her location, Rogue. This is a favor," mahinang ani ko habang nakayuko. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang gagawin ko oras na may mangyareng masama kay Kiana Louise. Isipin pa lang na nasaktan ito nagdidilim na agad ang paningin ko sa galit.
Kiana Louise is my source of life. If something bad happens to her it might be the cause of my death. She's fragile and precious, she can't handle something like this.
Bumalik ako sa aking sarili nang tapikin ni Rogue ang kaliwa kong balikat. When I look at him I saw his bloodthirsty smile again. So I already knew that it was not Rogue, it was Dorcas.
"Their head will be in a silver platter brother. I a sure you that I will find them," he said before turning his back. Napailing na lang ako.
"Certainly, . . .Dorcas." He looked at me sideways before smirking.
"Yeah, certainly."
I inhale before caressing Kiana Louise's picture. It's been 3 days at wala pa rin akong balita sa kaniya and Dorcas is still on the hunt right now. That John and Karina are both good at hiding. Even the great Dorcas can't find them, but if I finally catch them I'll surely bring them into hell with me.
Three days without Kiana is pure hell. Para akong patay na muling binuhay pero walang puso. Mas gugustuhin ko pang mamatay kaysa ang hindi makasama sa buhay si Kiana Louise. I want her and only her. Without her, my life becomes more dull. Akala ko nang mawala ang pamilya ko hindi ko na muling mararamdaman ang ganoong lungkot, pero nang mawala sa akin ang nag-iisang taong iniingatan ko, mas doble pala ang sakit. Para akong pinatay.
I was held captive by my sorrows, I'm dying and aching to hold her in my arms again. I want her back, and I will surely bring her back beside me where she really belongs. She needs to stay beside me until her last breath, she needs to love me until she dies. My Kiana Louise.
"Kia, where are you, baby?" I clenched my jaw before kissing her picture. I heard three knocks on my door before I heard Primotivo's voice.
"Great news." I silently said yes before placing Kiana's picture on my side table.
"Stay baby, I'll be right back." I make my way downstairs where I saw Primo and the other two glaring at each other. Dorcas is not here hindi ito babalik hanggat hindi nito nakukuha ang lokasyon si Kiana. That's what Dorcas is, gagawin niya ang lahat makuha lang ang gusto. I'm really glad that he's on my side, he's a great friend but a very bad enemy.
"What is it, Primo?" Tumingin sa akin ang tatlo bago may hinagis si Saint sa aking direksiyon.
"What is this?" Kunot noong tanong ko dito bago pabagsak na umupo sa sofa. Ngumise naman si Saint sa akin bago dalawang beses na pinatunog ang kaniyang sapatos. The sound that his shoes made echoed in this big house.
"The culprits in your Corporation. It takes me an hour to know that so for compensation a few boxes of gold and I will shut my mouth," seryosong anito. Nakita ko naman ang pagtaas ng kilay ni Calliber bago sinipa si Saint.
"Because you're busy fucking your sister, Saint Yves. I am sure your video is in pornhub again, may fetish ba kayong maging bold star?" Hindi ko na pinakinggan ang dalawa at kinuha na lang sa loob ng envelope ang laman.
A small smirk crept into my lips when I saw John, Karina, and Mr. Torres picture on the front page. Bastards, they're all a bunch of bastards.
I can't suppress my laughter that's why it caught the three's attention, nakangiweng tumingin sa akin si Primo habang seryoso lang si Saint at Calliber.
"You clearly want their head, am I right?" Nakataas ang kilay na tanong ni Saint Yves. I look at him murderously.
"How did you know?" Ngumise ito bago kinuha ang box na kanina pang na sa sofa. Hinagis niya ito sa akin bago sumipol
"You're very much welcome."
I opened the box only to greet by an awful smell, it smells like a lump of rotting meat.
"The smell is wonderful," bulong sa akin ni Calliber habang nakadungaw sa loob ng box. Kinuha ko mula sa loob nito ang ulo ni Mr. Torres. Blood is dripping from the open wound and his eyeballs were stabbed by a syringe. Nakatahi rin ang bibig nito at wala ng tenga.
"Nice, Dorcas cat is hungry right now. I starve it for about two days, I'm sure he'll be delighted to eat that. . .is that even consider a piece of human or a thing?" Saint asks. Napailing na lang ako dahil siya ang may kagagawan nito. I'm sure he vents his frustrations in here. Baliw pa naman ito. Hinagis ko sa direksiyon niya ang ulo ni Mr. Torres bago nagpunas ng kamay.
"Dorcas will be very angry if he knew about this. Now go, feed Apollo." Umalis na ako sa living room bago bumalik sa aking kwarto. My company problem is now done. Si Kiana Louise na lang. Sandali akong tumingin sa picture niya nang marinig ko ang pagtunog ng aking cellphone. Kinuha ko ito mula sa aking bulsa bago sinagot ang tawag nang makitang si Dorcas ito.
"This is Rogue, and I finally found Kiana Louise's location." Bigla akong nabuhayan sa sinabi nito. "They're hiding on an abandoned island in Bicol. Dorcas' skill is pretty rusty right now that's why I obligated my friend to do his undone work. Now can you please get your ass here?"
Hindi ko mapigilang ngumise bago binaba ang tawag, finally. I can now finally see my baby. Anger, happiness, and loneliness suddenly rushed through my veins. I will surely kill Karina and John. They better prepare their self.
Mabilis akong bumaba ng hagdan bago pumunta sa likod ng bahay. Mandito ang Mi-26 ni Calliber na pwede naming gamitin sa pagpunta ng Bicol.
"Code Red. We need to get our asses in Rogue's location right now!" Seryoso kong sigaw sa tatlo na abala sa pagpapakain kay Apollo. Mabilis kong binuksan ang itim na vault dito bago pumasok sa loob.
Different kinds of guns greet me, mayroon ding iba't-ibang klase ng bomba at chemical dito. Pumili na ako ng baril na aking gagamitin bago lumabas. Napangise ako nang makitang ready na ang tatlo.
Saint is holding his favorite sword, I forgot to tell you that he's a leader of a Yakuza. While the other two are holding a riffle.
"In the helicopter now," I commanded them. Tumango naman sila bago nagsisakay. Calliber is in the pilot's seat, he will be our pilot for now. I know that Rogue's man is already there, I bet kami na lang ang kulang. Sasakay na sana ako kaso lang nahagip ng mata ko ang paningin ni Apollo.
A sinful smile curves my lips. "Come here, Apollo." The Royal Bengal Tiger growl before walking toward me.
"Oh I forget to lock his cage, my bad," Primo said while wiping his riffle. Ngumise lang ako dito bago pinasakay ang alaga ni Dorcas sa likod ng helicopter. Kasyang kasya ito dahil malaki ang helicopter.
"Now to Kiana Louise location, and drive as fast as you can Calliber. I can't wait to kill both of them."
"Roger that, Morocov!"
