Chapter 46: Truth Destroys
Armour's POV
I've been roaming in the dead alike campus for how many minutes. Yet hindi ko pa siya makita, even her friends was not still here.
I just want to say something. An apology, she deserves it.
Lexine's POV
"We're already late. Faster girls." I shouted. Kanina pa ako naghihintay sa baba ng hagdan pero hindi pa rin sila ayos.
That investigation is the reason for this. We've been working for two weeks and we still don't have an enough sleep. Dagdag pa na wala pa rin kaming makuhang matibay na proof.
It's been two weeks. Empire High was back to normal again except for some students. Some of them were traumatized and still in pain of their loss. But that wasn't our care since madami pa kaming pinoproblema ngayon.
"Go get your own cars." Klaio stated habang pababa ng hagdan kasunod si Blairre at Fuschia.
Speaking of Klaio and Fuschia. Both of them are acting different. Klaio talk few words while Fuschia, she doesn't speak even a single word. And it started when she went home from somewhere. And I admit, she's creepy. Its like she's acting as Bloody E every time I see her.
"Two minutes." Saad ni Klaio nang makasakay kami sa aming mga kotse kaya agad na kaming nagpaharurot nito sa kalsada.
Klaio is ahead of us. Halos kapantay ko lang si Blairre. While Fuschia--she's missing? I look again at my back, and she's really not there.
"Where is Fuschia?" I said via our group call.
"Her GPS is deactivated too." Dagdag ni Blairre which made us three to stop our cars.
Bumaba na rin naman kami and we just stared on the road where we came from pero walang kotse kaming nakikita. Not until we heard Klaio's phone's message tone.
"Let's go. She's going to somewhere." She just blurted without explanation. Maybe Fuschia messaged her. Fine.
Senator Fred Alfonso's POV
"Call Hades. He should be here. The time has came." Saad ni Louise nang seryoso at kabado which made me confused.
"Don't look me in that way. Instead call Hades immediately. He should be here in school by now. Because Fuschia, she's in the cemetery in front of a man digging the grave of her mother."
And that hit me. Hades should know this. As in now.
Fuschia's POV
Agad kong ibinulsa ang off kong phone at tumingin sa kaharap ko. Well, Satara and others can managed themselves. At walang dapat ipagalala doon.
Because this is more important. And its been weeks, para pagisipan ko talaga ito. I don't know whom to trust. And, I really don't want to be betrayed. But now, here I am. Standing on her grave.
"Miss, Bubuksan na po ba?" Napatingin ako sa isang lalaking nasa five feet deep kaharap ang isang kabaong na halos kulay itim na din.dahil sa dumi nito.
"Yes. Open it." I said using my cold tone dahil maski ako ay hindi sigurado.
"Miss." Hindi ko na pinansin pa ang reaksyon niya. Even me seemed shocked. And I think, I really should be.
Because my mother's body was not there.
Hades' POV
"What?" Bungad ko as I answer Fred's call.
"Good and Bad News." This man is really full of sht. I just didn't talk back as my sign of irritation. And luckily he just straight his point.
"Fine. Your daughter is in Thanalia's grave and by now, I think she already knew."
And with that news, it made me stand up on my chair. And unfortunately, I'm now racing with hell.
Fuschia's POV
I opened my car's door, and landed my feet in Empire High's Ground. Which I think, lahat ng kailangan kong kausapin ay nandito na kaya walang dapat pagsisihan if ever they're not here.
"You! Desperate at Malanding girl!" Oh great. With that conyo lines. Alam ko na kung sino siya. At sa lahat pa naman ng araw, siya pa talaga ang bumungad sa akin. Lucky me.
I just ignored her but these stupid students are really so stupid. Seriously.
They encircled me and that Conyo as if we're going to have a cat fight. Well, I'm not a stupid brat. I'm a moody gangster. So if she's gonna lay one finger on me, this grounds will be her graveyard. Swear.
I just passed on some students at automatiko naman silang nagbibigay daan sa akin. Still scared of me. Well, I'm still their Queen. But one line made me stopped. And with all of her screams, iyong linyang iyon lang ang pumantig sa aking tainga.
"You're such a dakilang stalker to Armour! You're a pretender."
I just calmed myself dahil sa tingin ko, kahit di niya ako hawakan ay talagang magiging sementeryo niya ito. This btch is really hitting my nerves.
Kinuyom ko na lang ang kamao ko while ignoring her, but something made me stopped again. It's a line. A line that says the truth.
"I know na your secret! You're the sikat na Empress Morrigan!"
Klaio Satara's POV
It's lunchtime already, pero wala pa rin si Fuschia. She said she's gonna be late. So malamang, ganito nga kalate. So be it.
"Heard that girls?" Blairre asked na ikinatingin namin sa kanya habang naglalakad.
"Heard what? The noise of those war freak brats? Such a waste." Lexine answered na inirapan na lang din ni Blairre. Well, that noise are really coming from a crowd in the grounds.
"I know na your secret! You're the sikat na Empress Morrigan!"
We suddenly heard that shout which caught our attention. It's Fuschia's real name, and we must admit. Alam naming tatlo na nanggaling iyon sa crowd na nakita namin kanina.
And with a single stare, parehas kaming lahat ng ginawa. We hurriedly run to that area. At ngayon ko lang rin napansin ang isang familiar na kotse malapit sa crowd na iyon.
And with my peripheral view, hindi ko rin maiwasan magtanong sa sarili ko. Is this just a coincidence that Armour's group are running also to the same area? Oh sht.
"Give way." Lexine shouted as we got there, and that shout ang ikina-automatiko nilang pagkilos para magbigay ng daan sa amin. Well obviously, she's still a btch.
I just rolled my eyes with her attitude at hindi ko naiwasang tumingin sa direksyon ng grupo nina Armour. And there, I saw students giving a way for them. It's expected, unlike what I'm looking at right now.
Surprisingly, Its really Fuschia.
Fuschia's POV
"I know na your secret! You're the sikat na Empress Morrigan!"
As she said those words ay tumigil lang ako ng saglit sa posisyon ko at muli nang naglakad paalis. But I stopped nang makaramdam ako ng sakit sa ulo. I looked at my back and there, I saw her evil smile while she's still pulling my hair.
And with that moment, oras ko naman para ngumiti. I smiled on her which made her stiffed and stepped back. But that reaction was not enough.
Hinila ko din siya. But this time, I pulled her by her neck as I gave her a little advice.
"Kung gusto mong malaman, ask me. Not pissed me. I'll answer you, but I might kill you too."
Madiin kong bulong sa bawat salita at pagkatapos, ay itinulak siya sa mga nanunuod which made them gasped including her. Pero ang sunod kong mga ginawa ang mas nagpagulat sa kanila.
I removed my bunned hair that she messed. And I also removed my glasses, pimples, lashes, braces and moles that were all fake.
"You're really Empress." She said stuttering because of shock. And until now I can see their shock that still plastered on their faces, including Satara and others na sa tingin ko ay nakita ang nangyari.
"You lied." And with that familiar voice ay napatingin agad ako sa likudan ko, only to see his betrayed eyes. But that wasn't my care, so I composed myself.
"Well, it's quits. They lied, I lied. My life is full of lies, and even me was a lie. Great right?" I answered to Armour while smirking, which made me felt a sudden pinch inside me. That sucks.
"Empress." Another call from my back again. But this point, I faced the direction of the voice with full of anger. And I bet, he could really read me.
Read my disappointment and anger towards him. But that read was not enough, gusto kong maramdaman nila ang tensyong naramdaman ko kanina habang nasa sementaryo ako. And with this point, I said a line to him. A line which was my turn to make them begged an apology from me.
"Explain. Father."
Edited.
