Light's POV:
"Kuya Light kaylan ba tayo aalis, naiinip na ko dito" pagmamaktol nang kapatid ko. Nakadapa sya sa tabi ko dito sa kama at nagsasagot nang crossed word puzzle
"Later Shane, wala pang gabi oh" I checked my wrist watch it's 10:00 early in the morning masyado pang maaga
"Pero kasi naman nakakatamad na dito, bakit ba hindi mo na lang muna papuntahin sila ate Alexa?" nakangusong tanong nya
"Na-uh that's not a good idea Shane. Kapag nagstay sila dito at sabay sabay tayong aalis mamayang gabi dad and mom would get suspicious" paliwanag ko at mas lalo lang bumusangot ang mukha nya "Ipagpatuloy mo na lang yang giinagawa mo" tinaas nya ang crossed word puzzle and I guess she can't answer it anymore since she had filled all of it
"Humanap ka na lang nang ibang mapaglilibangan" Bored rin na sabi ko. Actually I was thinking on calling the men I had working for me and spying Clovis company. Naisip ko lang na oras na para sabihin ko sa kanya ang plano at ang oras na itatanim nya ang bomba sa rooftop. I think it would be useless since Clovis won't run. Dun sigarado ko pero mas mabuti na yung nakakasigurado kaming wala na syang takas
"Wala na nga akong mapaglilibingan" nakasimangot na usal nang kapatid ko "Bigay mo na lang sakin yung blue print nang company para makita ko yunng mga escape root at mga pwede nating pagtaguan hihihi" Sinamaan ko sya nang tingin
"Bakit? kaylangan mo pa ba yun? hindi naman tayo aatras"matalim na paliwanag ko
"Eh kasi naman papano kung may mangyaring hindi maganda tapos hindi natin alam kung san tayo tatakas? oh diba mas maganda na yung prepared" confident na sagot nya as if she hit the bulls eye
"Tss" tumayo ako sa kama at hinalungkat ang cabinet ko para hanapin yung blue print nang kompanya. I hid it under my clothes, oh here it is
Pagkakuha ko ay inabot ko na yun sa atat kong kapatid. I sat on my bed again as she analyze the blue print
"Wow ang astig so hangggang 50 floors pala ang company uhm mahaba-habang takbuhan ang gagawin natin ah" Amazed na sabi nya "I say there's atleast 10 elevators over all, yup there's ten pano ko kaya idedeactivate ang mga yun" I watched her and observe how she will think
"Bakit hindi mo ihack ang security nila when you get to the control room and then turn off the power then destroy the main source of elecctricity"
"Eh kuya naman, hindi ko na kailangang ihack yun. Papatayin ko na lang yung nasa control room tapos ako na magmamanage nang elevator. Hihihi excited na ko" An unbelievable chuckle escape my mouth. Iba talaga kung mag-isip ang kapatid ko. Why is it that it gave me creeps when she talk about death?
"Oh ano namang nakakatawa dun kuya? wag mo nga ako minamaliit. Kayang-kaya kong pumatay, Zedler yata ako" confident na sabi nya
"You sure?"I teased and she flushed red with frustration
"Oo naman noh, kahapon nga pinatay ko yung lalaki, naku kuya kung nakita mo yung tama nang baril mabibilib ka sakin" nawala ang ngiti ko and I eyed her as she covered her mouth "Oops nadulas, kunyari di mo narinig yun kuya, peace tayo" nakangising sabi nya
"Anong nangyari kahapon?" tanong ko and she sighed
"Well there was a man I killed him the end" mabilis na litanya nya pero halata ko sa facial expression nya na may hindi sya sinasabi
"And?" I pushed her impatienly
"nakita ko si Clovis nasa loob sya nang restroom nung pinatay ko yung tauhan nya pero nagpanggap ako na hindi ko sya nakita. Nakita ko rin si Clovis sa parking lot tapos umalis na sya. Nakita ko rin pala sya nagtago sa shelf nung binili namin yung couple shirt. Hihi ang cute nang shirt noh?" pag-iiba nya nang topic I sighed knowing I can't do anything about it
"Just be careful next time" I tap her head but she frowned and shook her head
"Next time?eh diba papatayin na natin si Clovis? so dapat wala nang next time" mahina akong napatawa sa sagot nya
"Yup, tama ka" she grinned happily at nag-umpisa ulit pag-aralan ang blue print. She took a picture of the blue print using her phone at sa tingin ko sinendan nya na sila Alexa at Raven. I'm sure they have their phone. Bago sila umalis binilinan ko naman sila na hawakan palagi ang phone nila at lagyan nang security code dahil anytime pwede ko silang imessage kung may magbabago ba sa plano
"Kain na tayo kuya, nagugutom na ko" Tumango ako at nagpahila sa kanya pababa nang kwarto ko. Nakasalubong namin si dad at mom na nag PPDA sa hagdanan
"Mamaya na yang lambingan nyo, kain muna tayo" tuyot na pang-aabala ko sa dalawang naghahalikan sa hagdan
"Uhm oo nga, tatawagin na sana namin kayo" nakayukong sabi ni mom
"Hihihi ang sweet talaga ni dad" Napabuntong hininga ulit ako. Isa pa tong kapatid ko eh
"Tara na kain na tayo gutom na rin ako eh pero iba sana kakainin ko" Dad winked at us and I almost spanked the back of his head
"What's for breakfast?"nakangiting tanong ko kay mom
"Oh I cooked Bacon, fried banana for Shane, ham, hot dogs fresly made cheese and toasted bread with lots of veggies" Malawak ang ngiti ni mom kaya wala akong choice kung hindi ngumiti rin. Na-apreciate ko naman ang mga niluluto nya. She's the best cook ever
Nang makarating kami sa dining room agad na kaming kumain. Mom and dad seem to be trap in their own world as always.......ano bang nagbago?
Habang pinanonood ko sila, gumuhit ang ngiti sa labi ko. Tomorrow I expect a day without worrying on anything I just hope that we will accomplished our goal without losing anyone dahil hindi ako papayag na may mamatay saming apat. If there would then I would gladly volunteer
3rd Person's POV:
"Alexa san ang punta mo?" tanong ni Alexis nang makitang bihis na bihis ang anak.Wearing a short above the knee and a black boots that reach her knees. She was wearing a complete black attire
"May date po kami ni Light, and dad I think you would agree to my outfit wouldn't you" Alexa winked at his dad pero sa totoo lang ioo ang suot nya dahil sa lahat nanag damit nya this is the one that she can move freely with no limitations
"Yup, sige Alexa isuot mo yan. Sigurado bukas may apo na kami nang mom mo" Nakaakbay at nakangising sagot ni Rain sa anak nyang babae
"Whatever dad anyway I have to go" sagot ni Alexa
"Date nang gabi?you kids better not do anything funny" Paalala ulit ni Rain
"Yes dad sa park lang po kami pupunta" Tumango ang dad nya and she was off. No guards, no parents...she was ready it was almost 8:00 in the evening and the meeting starts at 9
Sa kabilang banda nilock naman ni Raven ang kwarto nya. Early in the morning he pretended to be sick and by afternoon he told his parents that he doesn't want to be disturbed in his room the whole night. His plan would work out fine cause he knows that he's parents will do just as he says and they wouldn't even see him leave
"All right, now this is enough" nakangising bulong ni Raven matapos nyang mailaghay sa bag ang mga kaylangan nya, baril granada, time bomb, smoke bomb etc.
He went to the glass wall and opened it using a remote. Dahan dahan syang tumalon papunta sa garden nila dala ang bag. He hid in bushes papunta sa gate nila. Nagtago sya sa mga tauhan nila sa paligid and he made sure that his parents didn't spotted him
Nang nasa gate na sya naging problema nya ang mataas na gate pero swerte sya nang tumalikod ang nagbabantay nang gate dahil sa kausap nito sa telepono. Sinamantala nyang buksan ang mataas na gate at nang malayang nakalabas ay agad na tumakbo sa highway para pumara nang Taxi. They would all meet up at a coffee shop just a couple of blocks away from the company
Nagbibihis na nang damit sila Light sa kwarto nya kasama ang kapatid nya. Sya na rin ang nagsabi sa kapatid nya na iayos ang buhok in a way that it won't bother her when she run. Inayos nya na rin ang baril na dadalin nila at may dala rin syang ibang bala. Napagkasunduan nilang si Raven ang magdadala nang mga bala at granada since sya lang ang tatakas sa kanilang lahat
"You're boots make sure you're comfortable with it" paalala ni Light kay Shane habang sinusuot nito ang leather boots below the knee
"Yeah it fits perfectly" sagot nang kapatid nya habang iniistomp ang paa at sinusubukan kung hindi matatanggal ang boots na suot nito. Light did the honor to put Shane's gun on the gun pocket found on Shane's tighs. Shane was wearing a skirt afterall. Hindi naman magdududa ang parents nila dahil kaylangan palaging may dala silang baril
"All right let's go" nakangiting tumango ang kapatid nya at lumabas na sila nang kwarto ni Light
"Wow Shane you look hot. San ang lakad nyo?" salubong samin ni dad na may dalang tray na may dalawang baso nang gatas
"Oh we're going to see the fireworks display on the park!" A fake excitement rose from Shane's throat although she was excited but not with the fireworks. She prefer the term 'gunshots'
"Really can I come and I'll bring Lucy with us" Light beccame uneasy. He didn't expect this to happen
"Uhm s-sure" He answered with a smile-a fake one
"Oh we're not coming dear, I'm really worn out, not now, please do understand Light" singit ni Lucy na kararating lang sa tapat nang pintuan nang kwarto ni Light. Relief flood on his face
"Oh yeah sorry hon, I forgot you're still tired" Mabilis lang na kinarga ni Van ang asawa nya at hinarap ang mga anak nya "All right you two should be careful, hanggang 11:00 lang kayo sa labas, bumalik na kayo pagkatapos" paalala ni Van sa mga anak
"Yes dad" nakangiting sabi ni Shane. Alam ni Light na nakahinga rin ito nang maluwag sa sinabi nang ama
"Hindi dapat kita pinagod, sorry hon" narinig nilang bulong ni Van papalayo buhat ang asawa nya. Light didn't let his mind wondered to what could have cause his mother to be tired since he knew what happened
"Weew, muntik na tayo dun kuya" nakangising usal ni Shane sa kapatid nya
"Tara na, naghihintay na sila"
Inabot lang sila nang ilang minuto sa biyahe nang makarating sila sa coffee shop na napagkasunduang meeting place nilang apat. When they entered the shop they had spotted Raven and Alexa on a table talking with a cup of coffee on the center table
"Wow ate Alexa is....smoking hot" Shane whispered when she saw the overall features of Alexa
"You we're too Shane, now come on I want to see her up close" wala sa sariling usal nya sa kapatid. Hinila nya na ito papunta sa upuan nila Alexa. Kahit na ayaw nyang nakasuot nang maikli si Alexa this had tempted him to just stare at her with admiration besides there wasn't any comppetitors around. She was just a little girl if any drunk maniac would come after her it would be easy to kill him
"Nandito na sila" bulong ni Raven kay Alexa. Tumalikod si Alexa mula sa pagkakaupo para tingnan si Shane at Alexa na naglalakad
"Well what do you know? Shane was wearing a skirt, I think she's really sexy" Alexa whispered and took a glance at Raven. She lean forward and snap a finger right infront of Raven
"Wake up silly boy, we didn't came for that view" She reminded and he nods dazed by the view still unable to take his gaze away from Shane
"Good evening ate Alexa" nakangiting bati ni Shane. Ngumiti nang bahagya si Alexa and motioned them to sit
"We don't really have time, how about you just stand and we're off?" suhestyon ni Light. Sa kalagitnaan nang meeting nyang plinaplano na pumunta sa control room nang office ni Clovis at ihack mula duon ang system nila from the control of elevator up to the electricity but of corse Shane could do that faster so he plan to let her handle that. Shane planned to transfer the control to her laptop so that they can position on different areas and plan when to deactivate everything. It can be done freely but they need to be careful not to be caught by Clovis' men roaming around the entire building
"Sure that's a better idea, I was itching to do so" Alexa mumbled and stood up giving Light the full view of her white smooth legs. He fake a cough and he was the first one to take his back on them. He headed for the exit of the shop
"So what's next?" tanong ni Shane
"We'll walk, Raven snap out of it, stop looking at my sister's legs" Light scowled at Raven trying hard not to look at Alexa's direction
"Uhm-hindi ako tumitingin" tarantang paliwanag ni Raven "sorry" He apaologized a little embarassed
"I'll lead the way. I think we better walk under the trees and make sure no one would spot us" prisinta ni Alexa at nagpatiunang maglakad. Gumilid sila sa mga puno at tahimik na nilakad ang daan patungo sa kompanya ni Clovis
"Light snap out of it, don't look, stop looking at my cousins legs" A hint of sarcasm came on the mumbling Raven behind Light
"Hide" Alexa whispered in a harsh tone and everyone was alert enough to hid behind the trees. Ilang lalaki ang umiikot sa paligid nang kompanya. Mga ilang talampakan na lang ang layo nila. Across the street is the company but it was guarded by men in Black about 10 of them. Napaisip si Light kung gano karami ang tauhan dito ni Clovis. They huddle on the bush where they could see a glimpse of the entrance of the 50 floor building
"The meeting would start 9:00 oclock so the bomb installed by one of kuya's spy on the company should be detonated by 9:30" Huminga nang malalim si Shane. They have to be inside before the bomb detonates cause surely it would cause commotions and Clovis can escape on the front door even without the helicopter on the rooftop
"Pano ba natin mapapasok yan?" tanong ni Alexa
"Let's kill them, Raven may dala ka bang silencer?" ngumisi si Raven at hinalungkat ang bag nya "Here I brought 8 just incase" Kumuha nang tig-iisa sila Light and they attached it to their guns
"Is there a security camera on the main entrance?" tanong ulit ni Light kay Shane na nakadungaw sa maliit na awang sa bush na tinataguan nilang lahat
"Fortunately there's no camera on it, we're free to kill them" sagot ni Shane and without consulting one another they begun to fire on the men Instanly killing the ten men without making a noise ang allowing them to make one. It was so fast for them to react
"Good now sprint" Light whispered and they crossed the street and headed to the main entrance of the building
"Wait sigurado ka bang nasa loob na si Clovis?" tanong ni Raven nang makarating sila sa entance
"Do you think I'll let us kill the men oustside if I'm not sure? Bryan, the spy that works for me told me so" He explained and they carefully entered the building. No one was there of course. Even all the lights are off they can only hear footsteps and that belonged to the guards of Clovis roaming inside the building. They can see a little because the moon illuminates the building and the inside through the glass walls
"You're free to kill anyone in you're way and I expect no one will die today, are we clear?" tanong ni Light at nilead ang grupo na magtago at yumuko sa counter nang lobby
"Yes" sagot nang lahat and they all stood up and ran on one direction. They took the stairs but stop when they heard footsteps again. It was a nice start that they had such incredibly light feet that footseps are almost soundless when they walk
"Kill" Light mouthed to the 3 kids behind him and they nodded. Lumabas na sila sa pinagtataguan nila and before the 3 men can uttered anything they died and fell rolling on the floor
"Move to next phase" bulong ulit ni Light at tumakbo na sila sa hagdan. The meeting place would be on floor 49 so it means they have to take the stair to reach it though it was an easy task for them. Ang nagpapahirap lang sa kanila ay ang mga humaharang sa daanan nila at ang limitadong oras bago sumabog ang bomba sa rooftop
"Just run and eliminate all who blocks your way" tahimik silang tumakbo nang nakaposisyon ang mga baril sa gilid nang tadyang. Nang makarating sila sa 3rd floor ay may 3 lalaking nakabantay na nanaman pero sa halip na barilin ay tinakasan na nila ito nang nakatalikod.Hindi sila pwedeng mag-aksaya nang bala since baka kaylanganin pa nila ang mga yun. They have to save bullets if they can, even though Raven brought lots of it. Mas magiging madali rin para sa kanila kung hindi na nila kaylangan pang barilin ang mga lalaki
Sa bawat pinapatay nila ay mabilis rin nilang kinakasa ang mga baril na hawak nila expecting more men to come. Patuloy lang sila sa pagtakbo at pag-akyat sa hagdan killing men if needed and paring their lives if not. Alam nilang sa loob lang nang ilang minuto ay makikita nang mga hindi nila pinatay ang mga bangkay nang binaril nila and it would surely be reported to the Clovis only that Shane had manage to hack the signal on every communication devices under the radius extending from the company to a few yards away from the building. She was working on it yesterday and Light was secretly but very proud of her
"Anyone count the floor we've been through?" tanong ni Light dahil nakalimutan nya na rin kung ilang floor na ang naakyat nila
"25th floor, keep running" sagot ni Alexa and they went upstairs again. Salamat sa pagtratrain nila bilang mafia na hindi sila kaagad napapagod sa pagtakbo. They we're trained to whithstand tiredness and pushed their selves to their limitation but they we're a little tired already so at some point of their running they would stop and spare some time to rest for a bit
Nakarating sila nang 30th floor at sa bawat palapag nang kompanya pataas ay dumadami rin ang kinakaylangan nilang patayin
"Hide" utos ni Raven at nagtago silang lahat sa isang office cubicle. They we're in the 40th floor nang makasalubong nila ang mga sampung lalaki pababa nang hagdan
"Bakit ba tayo nagpapabalik-balik" Inis na sabi nang isa sa sampung lalaki
"Wala naman, dahil yun ang utos nang king ang magbantay tayo sa lahat nang sulok" Paliwanag nang isang lalaki. Habang tumatagal ay humihina ang usapan nang mga ito hanggang sa tuluyang hindi na sila marinig nila Light. They advanced on the next floor and luckily there were no guards there. They went on and on, stairs from stairs killing, hiding until they reach the control room on room 48 just bellow the meeting room. They instantly killed the guy on watch and they entered the control room
"Shane work faster we only have 8 minutes bago sumabog ang bomba" kalmadong sabi ni Light
"On it"sagot nang kapatid nya. Nilabas nito ang mini laptop na pinatago nya sa bag ni Raven at ipinatong sa harap nang mga montitor at T.V screen extending from wall to wall and from ceiling to a few feet from the floor
Naupo si Shane sa isang swivel chair sa tabi nang lalaking binaril ni Alexa and she started typing on the keyboard. She transfer all the data and controls of the sytem to her laptop using a connector and when it's all done she shot down the control pad and shot the main core of the system using her gun so that her laptop would be the only control system of everything in the building. It was nearly impossible without the high technology of the company to transfer mechanical signal that can control the function of both electricity and control on elevators
"Done, let's go" Nakangiting aya ni Shane at lumabas na sila nang control room locking it from behind them
Sa kabilang banda tahimik lang na nakikinig si Clovis sa mga board of directors at sa mga pinapaliwang nito
"We have enough funds to build cruise line on new york and England from the next three months and I wished for all you're recommendations under it's constructions but first I need approval by the CEO of this company" Tiimbagang at tipid na tumango si Clovis sa board of director na nagplano nang pagpapatayo nang panibagong cruise line. Hindi nya akalaing ito lang ang pupuntahan nang pang-aabala nila sa kanya. They could just sent the email and asked him for approval and yet they dragged him here for that
"Billions of money would be invested for that cruise line and so it would all be worth it if we can profit atleast thrice the amount for about a year or so. It's a big risk so we have to talked to the CEO about this, what can you say?" tanong nang nageexplain na babae kay Clovis
"I approved it only I would have to leave that under Roby, the money that would be use for this cruise line should be manage properly and see through by Roby. It would be such a waste if this will all turn for nothing so I suggest Roby to have a meeting with all of you by next week to plan this out" Paliwanag ni Clovis. Roby was the man he was trusting everything with but now that he's present Roby is not here
"Bryan I need you're opinion" The king eyed the man suspiciously. The man had asked permission to go on the restroom right after the meeting had started and Clovis knew that this man was indeed a spy from Zedler family
"I think that would be great, I also approved it. With a little effort we can build another cruise line without wasting our money. Investing billions on this project can be a risky decision though so we leave it up to you" The man replied denying the uneasiness he was feeling right now
Clovis did not reply and as he expected, the lights suddenly went off. And then an explosion errupted from above them
"Nice" Clovis whispered when he realized that his helicopter can no longer act as an escape method. He slid his hand to get his gun from his pocket and instantly killed the man Bryan with one shot on the throat
"Gun shot!!!!" sigaw nang isang board member followed by their scream of horror and panic. Clovis remains on his sit calculating the situation. In every problem he encountered he would always think of a loop hole to solve it no matter how big it is
"What happened why is there a gunshot!" A woman screamed. Clovis can't see the woman but he can sense her presence. It would be easy to kill her on the dark but that would men wasting his bullet and he can't afford that. Kung napapaligiran sya nila Van,Wolf at mga anak nila then he needed to save those remaining bullets
Tumayo sya sa upuan nya at naglakad papunta sa pintuan nang meeting room sa kalmadong paraan. Sakto lang ang liwanag na nanggagaling sa glass wall para makita nya ang daanan pero madilim pa rin dito
Kinuha nya ang telepono nya pero nakita nyang walang signal dito. A smirked had creep on his face. He was amuse by the turn of events and instead of feeling scared by the thought of working alone his blood rise like it wanted to escape his body. He then knew that the game he wanted to play so much had begun by the approval of the other mafia organization
Naglakad sya sa corridor careful to observe his surroundings opening his senses to feel any presence that is present on the area
Naglakad sya pababa papunta sa control room pero tulad nga nang inaasahan nya, sira na ang control room. Maari nyang buksan ang generator upang makababa gamit ang elevator pero alam nyang isang malaking pagkakamali yun at yun ang maaring magdalaa sa kanya sa kamatayan. The elevator was being controled, it was no doubt on his mind that a person who is capable of deactivating every signal in communication devices can control the function of mechanics in the entire building
"Well-well I didn't expect you these early" Clovis spoke when he felt a presence behind him. It was just one and he was sure of that
"Ako din hindi ko inaakala ganito ka lang namin mapapatay" humarap sya sa isang batang lalaki. Si Light Zedler na nakatayo sa pintuan nang control room
"Had you came to play my game?" He asked
"No, I plan to end it here" Light answered in a deadly tone
"Well sorry to tell you but that's not gonna happen for the meantime" nakangiting sagot ni Clovis kasabay nang pagsabog sa likuran ni Light. Marahas na lumingon si Light sa hindi nya inaasahang pagsabog at nakitang nagliliyab ang mga generator na nakaimpok sa tabi nang bintana. Ibinalik nya ulit ang paningin nya kay Clovis na may hawak nang baril at nakatutok sa kanya
"I'm really prepared for this kind of event. I don't intend to lose that fast" Bulong nya sa sunod sunod na pagsabog sa likod ni Light. Light knew that if he don't backdown the stairs that leads to the lower floor will be covered on fire
The flames are dancing behind Light expanding its area as time passed by. His physical body cast a shadow infront of him as he felt the intensity of heat nearing to his direction
"Move boy" Clovis smirked and then pulled the trigger of his gun. Nailagan naman yun ni Light and he didn't think twice to grab his gun and pulled the trigger only it fell on the ground and his hand bleed due to another fast shot from Clovis
"You still have lots to learn young man" He walk towards the door where Light was standing in his usual poker face not minding his bleeding arm
"I'll tell you what" Tinaas ni Clovis ang baril nya nang makaharap nya si Light. Halos nakatutok na sa noo ni Light ang baril maybe 2 inches away and he spoke to the kid "I won't kill you, it's like you have two lives and you already lost one. I'll play the game cause what you have now is only a try out. If I see you once more then I'll kill you" He stated but the kid remains emotionless to his every word. He knew that Light can accept death but he prefer to do it later
Tinungo nya ang hagdan at nagsimulang bumaba dun taking the narrow space that hadn't been devoured by flames yet
"Damn"marahas na bulong ni Light. Alam nya sa sarili nyang kahit masamamng tao si Clovis he still respect him not by sparing his life but for being pair and worthy opponent. He wanted to kill him but it had to wait but not for long, he will, just a couple of minutes or maybe hours
When there's no trace of Clovis anymore he started on going down the same direction he did. It was hot and he heard another explosion but this time it was so many. The building was on fire. Not only the genaerators had exploded because he was sure that the loud explosions came from a man-made bomb. Sinabihan nya na si Raven na wag munang gumamit nang bomba kaya nakasisiguro syang hindi ito nangggaling sa kanya. Pumasok sa isip nya ang posibilidad na alam na ni Clovis ang mangyayaring pag-atake nila pero pinilit nyang alisin sa isi[pan nya iyon at nagpokus na lang sa paglalakad. Almost every part of the building is burning now, he wondered if this is how Clovis wants to play the game
On the other hand Shane was looking at the flames that exploded ahead kasama nya si Alexa samantalang nahiwalay naman sa kanila si Raven kanina dahil nahuli itong lumakad at natabunan na nang malalaking wall debris ang daanan nito kasama pa ang apoy na nanggaling sa pagsabog. Napagpasyahan nalang nilang maghiwalay at sinabihang magkita-kita sa susunod na palapag pababa.Ang ibig sabihin nun ay kinakaylangan pang humanap nang daan si Raven pababa. Kasalukuyan kasing nasa 35th floor sila Alexa at sa 34th sila magkikita ni Raven. Pwedeng bumaba sila Alexa sa hagdanan pero hindi si Raven dahil nga natakpan ang daanan nya papunta sa 34th floor. The only way he can get down is to use the elevator. Shane can activate it from her laptop if she wanted
"Bat ba kasi hindi tayo sinama ni kuya sa paghuli kay Clovis edi sana hindi na tayo nagkahiwa-hiwalay" maktol nya dahil si Light ang nagsabing bumababa sila at siguraduhing walang back up na darating. She felt stupid to went up and then all the way down again but she knew the reason why
"Si Light, gusto nya lang tayong maligtas. Kaninang umakyat tayo nakita mo naman ang kaba nya diba?" tanong ni Alexa at tumango si Shane. Alam nyang nagkakaganun ang kuya nya dahil takot itong maulit sa kanila ang nangyari kay Blake
"But can he keep his promise? na tayong lahat ang papatay kay Clovis?"tanong ni Shane pero hindi sumagot si Alexa dahil hindi nya rin alam ang sagot
Flames are blocking their way at ang ibang mga furnitures sa palapag na dinaanan nila ay nilalamon at tinutupok na nang apoy. Tumataas na rin ang temperatura sa paligid nila kaya nagmadali na silang bumaba nang kasunod na palapag
"Sa tingin ko dapat nating balikan si Light sa taas, nag-aalala na ko sa kanya" suhestyon ni Alexa. Gusto nyang sundin ang utos ni Light pero nag-aalala na sya para dito
"Sige pagkababa natin dito let's hope na hindi pa nababalot nang apoy ang daan papunta sa elevator. Daanan na rin tuloy natin si Raven sa taas baka naging barbeque na yun" natatawang paliwanag ni Shane. Ang weird kung iisipin na tumatawa ka kahit na nasusunog na ang buong building at nadadaanan mo ang mga bangkay sa paligid na kaninna pa nila pinatay but they're mafia they are born to fit on their environment just fine
"Ayun na yung elevator" turo ni Alexa at mabilis silang tumakbo patungo dun. Mabuti na lang at wala pang masyadong sunog sa paligid nila
"Okay just a sec" umupo si Shane sa tapat nang pinto nang elevator. Kinuha nya ang laptop nya na nakalagay sa bag na buhat nya. Binigay sa kanya ni Raven ang bag na yun na naglalaman nang ilang baril at mga bomba pero nabawasan na dahil kummuha rin si Raven bago sila magkahiwa-hiwalay
"It's getting hot here hurry it up" Alexa said impatiently and Shane laugh
"You know it wasn't the fire, it was me, I'm really hot" She joked and Alexa laughed with her
"Tell me about it-oh there you're done" nagbukas na ang pinto nang elevator kaya naman pumasok na sila sa loob
"Punta tayo sa 35th floor at daanan na natin si Raven ang bagal bagal kasi maglakad yan tuloy naiwan pa" Si Alexa na ang pumunta sa harap at pinindot ang 35th floor kasunod lang nang palapag na kinaroroonan nila ngayon
The moment the elevator opened they saw Raven only he had his gun pointed at them. Nakahinga lang ito nang maluwag nang makitang sila ang sakay nag elevator at binaba nya na ang hawak nyang baril
"What?" natatawang tanong ni Alexa her hands crossed on her chest
"I thought it was Clovis, glad it was you" He step inside the elevator to join them "Oh thanks Shane" he said like it was just now that he remembered to thank her. He then planted a kiss on Shane's cheek
"Oh Light will kill you if he's here" bulong ni Alexa and then he press the button 49 where the last time they saw Light
"Anyway you think all those explosions came from Clovis?" tanong ni Raven. Shane simply looked at her then nod "I didn't expect him to be prepared, could it be that he already knew that we were coming?" Shane shrugged. She was wondering the same thing
"Shane ito lang ba ang gumaganang elevator o active na rin ang iba?" tanong ni Alexa. Kung active na ang ibang elevator ibig sabihin lang na may access na rin si Clovis dito at maari syang makababa at makatakas sa lobby nang walang kahirap-hirap. They already expected to kill him this day and they're not suppose to let it slip right under their hands
"Ito lang ate Alexa. I'm not really stupid, try to give me a little more credit" She winked at Alexa and alexa smiled and shook her head. Sometimes Shane can be really impressive and it's like there's no trace of the old her
"Yup give Shane what she deserves" pag-agree ni Raven sabay akbay kay Shane
"Really you're really something Shane" Nakangiting komento ni Alexa. Tipid na ngumiti sa kanya si Shane kasabay nang pagbukas nang elevator na sinasakyan nila. They step out of it and then Shane deactivated the elevator again just to be sure
Naglakad na sila papunta sa control room. Malaki ang floor na ito tulad nang ibang floor nang kompanya at may mga hallway na paliko-liko. Sa gilid nang hallway ay mga pintuan papunta sa opisina
"Wait help!!" Sigaw nang isang babae at nagpunta sa kanila
"Who are you?" tanong ni Shane sa babae
"Nanggaling ka-kayo sa elevator diba? please tulungan nyo ko bababa ako nasusunog na ang building!" tarantang sigaw nang babae. Sa pangalawang tingin nalaman na nila na isa sa mga board of direcctors ang babaeng ito
"Sorry miss may kaylangan pa kaming puntahan, don't block our way" walang ganang sagot ni Alexa
"Pe-pero-" pag-uumpisa nang babae pero tintukan sya ni Shane nang baril
"Look miss, get the hell out of our way. Hindi mo ba maintindihang may hinahanap kami? Die if you must I don't care" May pagkairita na ring usal ni Shane. Binaba nya na ang baril nya nang makita nya ang pamumutla nang babae at nasiguro nya nang hindi na toh magsasalita
"See ya!" mapang-asar na pahabol ni Raven bago nila lagpasan ang babae para hanapin si Light. They don't have time to save people's asses right now
Nakarating sila nang control room pero wala na dun si Light
"Nakababa na yun at siguradong hinahabol na si Clovis, tsk" lumabas sila nang control room and took another ride on the elevator. Nag skip sila nang 5 floors pababa para masiguradong nandun pa si Light kapag tumaas sila. If their Lucky they can even catch Clovis
Lumabas sila sa isang malawak na palapag kung san matatanaw ang mga cubicle sa harap nila. Sa dulo nun ay ang hagdan pababa at pataas nang ibang palapag. Tulad nang inaasahan nila naubutan pa nila na pababa si Light nang hagdan at halatang nagmamadali ito. Tumakbo sila at hinabol rin si Light pababa nang hagdan
"Kuya Light!!!!!!!!" sigaw ni Shane na nag-echo sa kulob na hagdanan. Nang nagpatuloy pa sila sa pagbaba nakita nila si Light na nakatingin sa kanila at nakakunot ang noo
"I told you not to follow me"may galit na mababakas sa boes nya pero pinagsawalang bahala nila Shane yun
"Nasan si Clovis" napakuyom ang kamao ni Alexa sa inis
"He went down that's why I'm chasing him" paliwanag ni Light
"Dude san mo na kuha yang dugo mo sa braso?" tanong ni Raven nang makitang nagdudugo ang braso ni Light. Tiningnan yun ni Light pero hindi sya sumagot. Pansamantalang inalis ni Alexa ang galit nya kay Clovis para tingnan kung ayos lang si Light
"San mo nakuha yan?" tanong nya and took her handkerchief para punasan ang dugo sa braso ni Light. Nag-uumpisa nang maging mausok ang paligid nila and they knew they can't stay in this floor much longer
"Binaril ni Clovis. I let my guard down, hindi ko alam na sasabog ang mga generator pati na rin ang ibang mga electronics sa building. Sa tingin ko alam nyang pupunta tayo dito"kalmadong bulong ni Light
"Tara na delikado na dito" Bumaba sila sa susunod na palapag kung san sumakay sila nang elevator at bumaba sa lobby para hintayin si Clovis duon. The looby seems the only floor that wasn't on fire dahil madilim pa rin duon at hindi mo mahuhulaang nasusunog na pala ang ibang palapag dahil sobrang tahimik dito
"Hindi toh kasama sa plano" huminga nang malalim si Light at tiningnan si Alexa na tahimik lang na pinagmamasdan ang hagdan
Hindi nagsalita si Light dahil alam nyang gusto-gsuto nang patayin ni Alexa si Clovis. pakiramdam nya ay kasalanan nya ang lahat dahil hindi nya nagawang puruhan man lang si Clovis. He felt like a failure not being able to take the guy down
"Ano pa kayang pasabog ang meron ang Clovis na yun? lahat na lang pumapalpak dapat pala kanina pa tayo sumakay nang elevator papunta sa meeting room nya at binaril na natin kaagad tsk" inis na pahayag ni Raven
"Kung sumakay tayo makikita yun nang ibang tauhan ni Clovis na nasa taas. They can easily warn him that someone was coming. Sigurado rin naman ako binawal nya ang mga tauhan nya na sumakay nang elevator kaya walang ibang magtatangkang sumakay dun kung hindi ang mga may balak pumatay sa kanya. If things would turn to be like that maari tayong maunahan ni Clovis sa control room at matrap tayo sa elevator then everyone dies" paliwanag ni Shane na nakatutok lang din ang paningin sa hagdan
"Tsk that guy is a pain in the ass" pagdidissmiss ni Raven sa topic. His temper had lead him to not think at all and he regret to look stupid infront of Shane
Tahimik lang sila hanggang sa makarinig sila nang mga sasakyan paparating at mga nagtatakbuhan sa labas nang kompanya.Hindi lang isa-dalawa ang mga paparating base sa ingay. Sigurado silang may mga 30 pung katao and nasa labas
"Shit" madiin na mura ni Light nang magsink in sa kanyang tauhan ni Clovis ang mga yun
"pano silang nakapunta dito? for god's sake akala ko ba naputol na ang signal sa lahat nang communiication device dito!" Tarantang usal rin ni Raven
"I-I did" gulat na paliwanag ni Shane. Hindi nya rin inaasahan ito
"We don't have time, all of you hide" Utos ni Light at pinangunahan silang maglakad papunta sa isang sulok nang lobby at nagtago sa malaking statue nang phoenix sapat na para makatago silang lahat
Narinig nila ang pagdating nang mga tauhan ni Clovis sa paligid
"Nasan na si sir?" tanong nang isa
"Ang sabi nya maghintay daw tayo sa lobby" sagot nang isang lalaki. Napakuyom ang kamao ni Alexa sa mga naririnig nya
"Shane?" tiningnan ni Light si Shane para tanungin kung paano nakatawag si Clovis sa mga tauhan nya
"I-I don't know kuya. Hindi dapat mabrea-break ang pagdedeactivate ko sa signal. malakas ang firewall na nagdedefense system ko hi-hindi ko maintindihan kung panong nangyari. Pwedeng magcommunicate si Clovis kung meron syang cancellation na ginamit ko sa panghahack nang signal pero para magawa yun he would need a couple of hours or two. It's completely impossible pwera na lang kung-"
"Kung alam nya na talagang pupunta tayo at napaghandaan nya na ang lahat, tama ba ko?" tanong ni Raven at mahinang tumango si Shane. Ibinalik ulit nila ang pansin sa pakikinig sa mga lalaking naghihintay sa lobby
"King!" sigaw nang isang lalaki. Sumilip nang kaunti si Light at nakita si Clovis na nakababa na nang hagdan. Namumula na ang lalaki dahil siguro sa init nang dinaan nya pero walang makikitang galos sa katawan nito
"Wala bang mga bata dito nang makarating kayo?" malamig na tanong ni Clovis sa mga tao nya. Nakatiim bagang si Light pero alam nyang hindi sila maaring lumabas. They can kill atleast a couple of men but surely they will be shot in no time kung lalabas sila
"Wala po sir" sagot nang isang lalaki
"I see, let's go" Utos ni Clovis "It's a waste of time. Pagkatapos kung patayin yung walang kwentang Blake na yun hindi rin pala ko kakayanin nang mga batang yun tss" It was there that Alexa had stood up. She had enough and Clovis had hit a nerve. She was so angry to the point of not thinking. She already stoodd. She was about to show herself and kill Clovis....but she felt a gun on her head
"No you're not going anywhere? do you wish to kill all of us" A dangerous voice of a girl spoke. It was Shane. Walang pumigil sa kanya dahil alam nila Light at Raven na tama si Shane "If you want to die in vain then go ahead but don't take us into your mess. If you show yourself then we die as well, That, I won't let happen. Move one step and I will kill you" pagbabanta nya kay Alexa
Nauna nang lumabas nang building si Clovis na nakapaikot ang mga tauhan nya sa paligid. Narinig nila ang paunti-unting paghina nang mga yapak hanggang sa mawala na ang tunog at mapalitan nang makina nang maga sasakyan paalis
Ibinaba na ni Shane ang baril na nakatutok kay Alexa nang makumpirmang nakaalis na si Clovis at mga tauhan nito
"I'm sorry I have to do that ate Alexa" paumanhin ni Shane although there's no trace of doubt cause she stands that what she did was the right thing to do
"No, I'm sorry, hindi ako nakapag-isip kaagad" sagot ni Alexa
"I'm sorry Alexa" pumunta si Light sa harap ni Alexa ang gave her a a french kiss that lasted for seconds "It's not over yet, the game is still up" Light said after breaking the kiss
"Anong plano mo?" tanong ni Alexa. She appears to be calm this time
"Pupuntahan natin si Clovis. Sa una natakot akong mawala kayo kaya pinilit kong wag kayong isali sa gulo pero mali ako. I should have tell all of you to come along, siguro napatay na natin si Clovis. Now I want to ask everyone" natahimik silang tatlo at nakinig sa susunod na sasabihin ni Light "Would you give everything you got for out last shot?" tanong ni Light. Everyone held out their gun
"Hell yeah!" they all shouted and everyone head out of the building. They ride a cab
"Bilisan mo" utos ni Raven sa driver matapos tutukan toh nang baril
"Sundan mo yung itim na sasakyan" dag-dag ni Alexa na nasa likod nang sasakyan kasama si Shane at Light
The man drove fast because of fear. Hindi alam nila Light kung saang sasakyan nakasakay si Clovis sa dami nang itim na sasakyan pero they lay-low making sure not to be notice by the cars ahead
"It's a whole lot of shit we have to kill" usal ni Raven thinking of how many men they have to kill when they get on Clovis territory
Ilang minuto lang ay huminto ang mga itim na sasakyan papunta sa malaking gate nang isang mansion. Ito ang mansion pinasukan ni Clovis kahapon. Mansyon na hindi nya totoong tirahan kundi teritoryo nya kung saan namumugad ang karamihan sa mga tauhan nya
Huminto ang taxing sinasakyan nila Raven sa isang gilid malapit sa mansion at hinintay na pumasok ang mga sasakyan sa loob nang gate bago napagpasyahang bumaba
"Oh I almsot forgot" Raven said then opened the passenger seat again "You can't leave and live" he smiled before using his gun to kill the driver
"Let's go" utos ni Alexa. Sinara ni Raven ang pintuan nang sasakyan at sumunod na rin kila Alexa na tumakbo papalapit sa gate nang mansion
"There's too many on the area, how are we suppose to kill them all?" tanong ni Shane at sumilip sa gate.Nakatago sila sa wall kung san nakakonekta ang kabilang dulo nang gate
"Oh it would be easy you just have to do this" nakangiting paliwanag ni Raven. Naglabas sya nang dalawang granada at tinanggal ang pin nito at magkasunod na inihagis sa loob nang gate kung san nagkukumpulan ang mga tauhan ni Clovis
'booooom!'
"Now move!" sigaw ni Light kasabay nang pagsabog. Sinamantala ni Alexa ang pagsabog para akyatin ang gate. She's an expert on breaking in so getting on the other side was as easy as stealing a candy from a baby
Binuksan ni Alexa mula sa loob ang gate at pinapasok sila Light. They move forward and made their way towards the mansion. The front yard was full of dead bodies and they can still smell the grenade. Some part of the yard are still burning
"Ayun sila!!" sigaw nang isang nakaitim na lalaki. Mabilis na tumakbo sila Light papasok nang mansion avoiding bullets that are coming their way. When they had finally infiltrated the mansion they run off the stairs to avoid the men. They didn't came here to kill them but they have to if needed
"There you go nice and easy" Nakangiting tinapik ni Raven ang bombang itinanim nya sa gilid nang hagdan. Inabot nya ang bomb detonator kay Alexa and she took it without a word
Meanwhile Clovis was looking down from his windows. Hindi nya man tinitirahan toh pero tulad nang ibang mansion nya mayroon syang sarili at malaking kwarto. Ang mga tao nyang nagkakagulo ang nasa labas ang iba ay patay na. Nasabihan na rin sya sa sitwasyon na 4 na bata ang nakapasok at kasalukuyang nasa loob nang mansyon nya
"Come get me prodigies" bulong nya nang may maliit na ngiti. Napabilib sya nang mga bata nang inakala nyang ganun-ganun na lang sila kadaling susuko
"King kaylangan na nating umalis dito may sumabog na bomba sa baba sa mismong hagdan" 2 palapag lang ang mansion pero sobrang lawak nito
"Roby, when this is over I want you to open that drawer" tiningnan ni Clovis ang desk sa tabi nang king sized bed and he continued "then take the letter from there" isang ngisi ang gumuhit sa labi ni Clovis. Kahit na naguguluhan ang tauhan nya ay tumango ito
Naglabas nang baril si Clovis at iniwan ang tauhan nya
"This is where it ends" He smiled and then he tightened the grip on his gun
Sa kabilang banda nagsimulang hanapin nila Alexa kung nasaan si Clovis sa pangalawang palabag. Naging maingat sila sa paggawa nang ingay at kung maari ay iniwasan rin nila ang mga tauhan ni Clovis
"May mas lalawak pa ba sa mansion na toh?" inis na tanong ni Raven. Isang palapag lang ang iniikutan nila para mahanap si Clovis pero hindi pa rin nila ito makita
"We should go check the rooms" suhestyon ni Light. May mga ilang pung kwarto sa pangalawang palapag dahil dito na rin tumutuloy ang mga tauhan ni Clovis. Para itong isang pugad tulad nang inaakala nila
"Got it" sagot ni Shane and opened the first door nearest to them. Isang kwartong may limang lalaki ang nakita nila na nag-aayos nang baril "Oops sorry namali nang kwarto" agad na usal ni Shane nang tingnan sya nang limang lalaki. Nilabas nya ang baril nya at binaril ang dalawa. Ang natirang tatlo ay bumagsak sa sahig. Hindi na mahalaga sa kanya kung sino ang pumatay kila Alexa, Raven at Light ang mahalaga ay mahanap nila si Clovis
Sinara nya ang pinto at sumunod kila Light sa paglalakad
"Mahirap to, hindi natin kabisado ang pasikot-sikot sa paligid. Hindi pwedeng icheck natin lahat ang kwarto, wala na tayong oras" Alexa stated as a matter of fact
"Kung maghiwa-hiwalay kaya tayo?" suhestyon ni Shane
"No" sagot ni Light
"Kuya naman tungkol na naman ba to sa pag-aalala mo?" tanong ni Shane. Hinarap sya nang kapatid nya at bahagyang ngumiti
"Kung maghihiwa-hiwalay tayo pano nang gagawin nang kung sino mang makahanap kay Clovis? I thought we agree that we would kill him together" Shane smiled too
"Good point" Sagot nya. Namataan ni Raven ang isang nakaitim na lalaking kakalabas lang nang kwarto
"Wrong timing ka bro" bulong ni Raven bago insasinta ang lalaki at pinaputukan sa ulo
"Blakes death will not be in vain, kaylangan nating mapatay si Clovis" bulong ni Alexa
"Sure will" Bulong ni Shane. Marahas nyang ipiniling ang ulo nya sa likuran "Ate Alexa!' sigaw nya at itinulak ito. Inilabas nya ang baril nya at pinaputukan si Clovis na nakatago sa isang poste mga ilang talampakan ang layo sa kanila "Damn it I missed-ahh" Nabitawan ni Shane ang baril na hawak nya kasabay nang pagsuporta sa kanya nang kapatid nya
"Shane may tama ka" bulong ni Light naang makita ang dugo sa kanang braso ni Shane. Naglabas nang baril si Alexa at Raven at sabay na nagpaputok sa tinataguan ni Clovis
"Don't worry kuya daplis lang to" Pinulot ni Shane ang baril gamit ang kaliwang kamay at tumakbo sa direksyon ni Clovis
"Damn it I'm gonna kill that bastard" Inis na pahayag ni Raven nang makita ang tama ni Shane. Tumakbo si Clovis papaliko nang isang corridor and they can almost hear his laugh of excitement
"That shit is not getting away this time" madiin ang pagkakasabi ni Alexa kasabay nang pagbilis nang takbo nya. The rest is on her tail as they run to chase Clovis
"Look up ahead" utos ni Light at huminto sila sa pagtakbo. Hinila nya si Alexa kasabay nang pagsabog. Ang medyo madilim na corridor ay nabalot nang liwanag nang apoy
"Ahh-shit!" sigaw ni Raven nang matamaan sya nang bala nang baril sa tyan. Hindi nila agad napansin yun dahill sa gulat sa biglaang pagsabog. Nanggaling ang bala nang baril sa direksyon nang apoy sa kabilang bahagi nang hallway
"There you are" bulong ni Light at sinubukang puntiryahin si Clovis sa kabilang dulo nang apoy na pumapagitna sa kanila. The sight of Clovis in the middle of the fire holding a gun with a smile reminds him of a devil that lust the purpose to kill and spill blood in the world
Unti-unting nawala ang imahe ni Clovis na nakita nya kanina. Sigurado syang hindi nya natamaan nang baril toh. Nakaalalay na si Shane kay Raven na malalim ang tama nang bala sa tyan "Damn I didn't see that coming" Hirap na usal ni Raven
"Can you still walk?" tanong ni Light and he nodded
"Walk yes but not run, I can't really do that" sinubukan nyang hawiin ang kamay ni Shane para maglakad pero agad din syang tumumba
"takpan nyo nang panyo ang sugat nya para hindi maubos ang dugo, hahabulin ko si Clovis" paalam ni Light bago nagpalit nang bala at sinalubong ang apoy papunta sa pinuntahan ni Clovis
"Don't just stand there, go get him!" Sigaw ni Raven kay Alexa na nakatingin sa kanya. She left without a word kaya naiwan na lang sila Raven at Shane dun
"Damn it Raven, bakit ngayon ka pa nabaril" Inis na usal ni Shane. Mahinang napatawa si Raven kasabay nang paglabas nang dugo sa bibig nya
"Go on, I won't die here" Utos ni Raven
"Are you fucking stupid!" sigaw ni Shane. Nanglaki ang mata ni Raven sa ginawang pagmumura ni Shane. This was the first time he heard her curse that word and the word fucking had made him embarassed
"Ah-I think you have to cool off" awkward na suggestion ni Raven
"Yup really I do" She said and then Shane kissed him hard "Ugh you taste like rust" nakangiting sagot ni Shane after breaking the kissed
"I guess it's the blood" bulong ni Raven dahil nakakaramdam na rin sya nang panghihina. Natakpan na nang panyo ang sugat nya kaya nabawasan ang pagkaubos nang dugo pero tumatagas pa rin yun
"Raven I swear if you die here I'm gonna kill you"naiiyak at natatarantang tiningnan ni Shane ang dugo sa tyan ni Raven. His shirt was soak in Blood as well kaya pinaupo nya muna ito at isinandal sa wall
"Hindi ako mamatay nang ganun-ganun lang Shane, I'm tougher than I look" paninigurado nya. He looked on the flames where Alexa and Light gone to
"I wanted to go catch that shit" Napakuyom ang kamao ni Raven sa gilid nya "Blake means more to us you know? he's our friend" bulong nya
"Raven-" pag-uumpisa ni Shane pero tumigil sya nang makita ang pagpatak nang luha ni Raven "I'm not going to be useless here" dag-dag nya. Suddenly the surroumdings seems to be quiter than they thought. The sounds of flames are the only thing they can hear besides Raven's heavy breathing
Tahimik na pinagmasdan ni Shane si Raven na nakatingin lang sa apoy and when she came to a decision she stood up and look down on him "Can I leave you?" tanong nya. Tumingala si Raven sa kanya. Ngumiti ito at tumango
"Don't you smile like I'm going to leave you and never to retirn. Don't smile like you're going to die. Don't smile like this is all over. I'm going to make sure that you won't just sit there, wait for me" huling salitang binitiwan ni Shane bago sya tumakbo at sumugod sa apoy
Mabilis na tumakbos si Light at Alexa para habulin si Clovis. They had been running for a while and they lost track of Clovis
"I thought he wanted to play, bakit sya tumatakbo?" walang emosyong tanong ni Alexa. Hindi sumagot si Light dahil alam nyang hindi rin hinihintay ni Alexa ang sagot nya
"Kuya" tumalikod si Light at hinarap si Shane na nasa likod na nila
"Iniwan mo si Raven?" tanong ni Alexa and Shane nodded
"Ok lang ba sya?" tanong ni Light. Umiling si Shane
"Bakit mo sya iniwan?" tanong ni Light. Napakuyom nang kamao si Shane
"Because I love him" maigsing sagot nya. Hindi na sumagot sila Light at nagdesisyong hanapin ulit si Clovis sa paligid. It took minutes until they heard another explosion and when they turn their head they saw Clovis smiling at them holding another detonator of bomb
"Kids behind you" he whispered and they all run toward him not minding looking at their back. Pinindot ni Clovis ang detonator kasabay nang pagsabog sa likuran nila Shane. lumipad papaharap sila Shane sa lakas nang impact nang bomba, She use her gun to aim for Clovis but she was too late. He took another turn to the left corridor. Bumagsak sila sa sahig at lahat sila ay mga sugatan na
Si Alexa ay may dugo sa ulo and it looks like she sprained her left arm dahil yun ang naunang tumama sa sahig nang bumagsak sila. Si Shane naman ay nagtamo nang ilang sugat at burns sa paa dahil sa pagsabog, si Light ay parehas ang sitwasyon kay Shane pero mas marami ang burn marks nito dahil na rin sa halos nasunog na ang damit pantaas nito at kita nag sunog sa ibang parte nang katawan nya
Wala na silang oras para kamustahin ang kalagayan nang isat-isa dahil alam nilang kumaliwa si Clovis sa corridor para balikan at patayin si Raven gamit ang ibang ruta papunta sa pinanggalingan nila kanina
They ran as fast as they can. Tiniis nila ang sakit na nararamdaman nila refusing that Raven would die and they just have to accept it
Nakita na nila ang likod ni Clovis and they ran and ran hanggang sa lumiko si Clovis sa isang corridor ulit. Namutla ang mukha ni Shane habang tumatakbo dahil alam nyang sa papalikong corridor na yun nya iniwan si Raven. They made it to the corridor at pagliko nila dun they saw the flames illuminate Raven as he raise his gun and fired it on Clovis feet
Nanlaki ang mata ni Shane nang makita si Clovis na naunang bumaril at sigurado syang puso ni Raven ang pupuntahan nang bala. Tumingin sa kanya si Raven na para bang bumagal ang takbo nang oras. He tilted his body para baguhin ang angulo nang magiging tama nang bala sa katawan nya. Sa halip na sa puso ay tumama ang bala kanang bahagi nang dib-dib nya
"You hit me"nakangiting bulong ni Clovis habang nakatingin sa paa nyang tinamaan nang bala. Ibinaling nya ang tingin nya kay Alexa na nakatitig sa kanya at nakataas ang baril. He look down on his chest and saw a hole spilling blood right across his heart. He smiled wryly and looked at the kids
"The game is over isn't it?" tanong nya as he slowly fell on the ground
"Yes it is" sagot ni Light and he raise his gun. Alexa, Shane pati na rin ang halos wala nang malay na si Raven ay pinilit itaas ang baril nya sa direksyon ni Clovis
"What the hell are you?" tanong ni Clovis sa malalim na paghinga
"The Prodigies" Sagot nilang lahat kasabay nang sunod-sunod na putok nang baril killing Clovis instantly
the end
