Skie's Pov
Nagising ako sa isang pagaalog ng aking katawan. Ng maimulat ko ang aking mata, nakita ko ang isang nagaalalang mata ni Marcus. Kahit na hindi nais ng aking katawan, gumising ako.
Scratching my head with annoyance I looked at Marcus. "Anong problema mo bro? Pasado alas tres na ah?"
"Bro, nagising ako ng magaalastres, umihi ako at uminom ng tubig. Napansin kong may siwang yung kwarto mo, diba natural lang na may sarado yan? Kaya ginising kita, tas may nakita akong note dyan sa study table mo, akala ko eh may corny kang sinusulat kaya binasa ko, tas nakita ko handwriting ni Heaven pala. Bro, nasa kapahamakan si Heaven."
Sakto namang magrereact na sana ako kaso may ingay sa labas ng dorm namin nagkatinginan kami ni Marcus. Agad kaming tumayo at nasalubong namin ang nagising na sina Dwayne at Charles kasama na si Jacob.
"Ano ba yan?! Madaling araw may nambubulabog" yamot na sabi ni Dwayne
Hindi namin sya pinakealaman ni Marcus at tinungo ang pinto. Pagbukas nakita namin si Rizelle at Penelope na umiiyak. Agad silang dumamba kay Charles at Jacob. Nagulat naman ang dalawang loko. Dana lookes so annoyed while Rain was plastering a worried face.
"Did you read her note?" cold na tanong ni Dana
Naguluhan yung tatlong loko habang kami ni Marcus ay nagturn sa isang seryosong nilalang. Not reading the note, I know whats written.
"I know what it says, no time on talking, we need to save her." saad ko. Damn Heaven! You must've told me.
"Alam ko kung saan sya naroon. Sir Peter called me, Heaven need back up. Napatakas nya sina Hans at Kiarra pero nahuli naman sya. So we need to hurry"
"I have a hunch, Sir Peter knows her plan"
Agad kaming nagbihis ng agent clothes at kinuha ang mga armas na kailangan namin. Rain already had a plan which Heaven sent her, it was a well-planned plan, but I was furious, kahit mukhang flawless ang plan na yon, she should've told us. She's not a hero like Superman, or full of high-tech and flawless weapon and car like Batman. Or as strong as Wonder Woman.
It worried me that she was caught off guard. Damn Heaven! You need to stay alive. Agad kaming pumunta sa lugar na iyon at wala pa ang Mafia kahit na alam na nilang kailangan ni Heaven ng back up.
We saw something on the ground when we arrived and it was the necklace I've gave her, siguro nahulog nya yon ng pumunta sya papunta sa oragnization. Paalis na sana kami kaso hinatak kami ni Rain pabalik, naguluhan naman ako, we can't waste time.
"Skie, wear this it'll give me an image as you go, I can scan where you can go safely and give you warnings" tumango ko, sasama na sana sya kaso hininto ko sya.
"Rain, stay here, inform us on the blueprints and on our way. Dwayne guard her. The rest come with me"
We entered the main gate and plenty of dead bodies welcomed us, she was really scary when she's on her Mafia Heiress aura.
"Brutal" Jacob commented. It wasn't so brutal but seeing the bala on their center forehead was too brutal already. Straight dead.
Nakapasok kami ng main hall ng maayos. Ayon kay Rain, mas safe sa main hall dahil nasa labas nakaabang ang ibang staff, alam nilang dadaan kami sa gilid but so bad, we had a tech geek with us we can outwit them.
Nakapasok kami ng tahimik sa bungad ng dungeon pero may humarang sa amin. Lalaban na sana ako kaso pinaalis agad ako ni Dana.
"Jacob samahan mo si Skie, be his guard. Rizelle be with him too. Kami na dito" Rizelle and Jacob came with me as, Dana, Marcus, Penelope and Charles cleared our way.
As we get near at the last cell, I could hear, the scrutinizing wail of Heaven. It made me furious, how dare them hurt her? Fastening my pace I arrived at her cell. I ordered Jacob and Rizelle hide and wait for my sign.
When I saw her, she was tied, both hands and feet, she was helpless, her hair wasn't tied, her clothes were tattered and ruined. She has many wounds, scratches and bruieses, the ground was almost filled with her blood and she barely could open her eyes. Her breathing was complicated, which made her situation worst.
The fury inside me arose as I heard Domigo Elemro's laughter. He was laughing endlessly and I wished him to die on laughing. I raised my gun pointing at him but when he sighed and shook his head signing 'no', I sensed someone getting near Heaven.
"Shoot him your girl will be dead" I looked at the perpetrator, and it was Vincent Elemro
"Why...did you came... Skie? I--i didn't asked you to come" she said weakly, part of me soften but I didn't mind it. Mamaya na yon, her safety comes first.
"Try shooting her, the beast in me will sentence you demise" I said coldly, for a teen like me, I can scare every one. And the Grande Mafia knows how dangerous I was.
In this situation I could make both of them down. I calculated everything as I made a sign. In one swift move both of them were down. Rizelle manage to shoot Vincent Elemero on his leg while Jacob shoot Domingo Elmero near his heart.
"How about that? It wasn't me who shoot them but my acquaintances, will you shoot her?" I asked
A smirk plastered on my lips, my worry about her lessen, but some of the organizations staff came. They were holding guns. I didn't mind them because despite their guns, Jacob and Rizelle can manage them.
"Go, kalagan mo si Heaven, kayang kaya namin ang mga duwag na to"
I followed Jacob's words because I trust their strength. And before I could fully unleash Heaven, I knew all of them were dead. My trust weren't in vain. Then I heard Rain's voice.
"Go out of there, the Mafia was here already, take the opposite way" dinig ko
"The others?"
"There here"
"Were on our way"
Tinulungan ako ni Jacob buhatin si Heaven at manaka-naka namang klinaklaro ni Rizelle ang daan. We successfully came out of the building and truthfully the Mafia was here.
Ng marating namin ang pinangalingan namin, nandon na ang family car nila Heaven, and alam kong nandoon ang dalawang Mafia Bosses.
I came near them
"Skie, thank you for saving my hard headed daughter" saad ni Sir Peter, he was so good on concealing his emotions when he was at work. And kahit na puno na ng sugat si Heaven he still remained calm.
"Please bring her on the hospital. Ang Mafia na ang bahala dito."
Following his order we drove to the hospital. Mabuti at nakayan ko syang buhatin habang nagmamaneho.
Nasa ER na sya ngayon at ginagamot ng mga doctor.
Heaven, please, please get well, please fight for me, for us.
Hindi ako mapakali. Nakita ko kung gaano kalalim yung sugat nya sa harap. Talagang makakapatay ako dahil sa ginawa nila. Madami syang sugat at iba naman don ay marka. Alam kong tinake advantage nila si Heaven na mas lalong kinakulo ng dugo ko.
Pakening bastards....
Sa oras talagang umayos ang kalagayan ni Heaven papatayin ko sila.
Maya maya ay nakita ko si Taylor. May hinahanap sya at ng makita nya ako dali-dali syang lumapit sa akin. Yayakapin na sana nya ako pero agad akong tumalikod. Alam kong meron syang kasalanan dito. Alam kong tatay nya si Vincent Elmero at alam kong planado ang pagpunta nya sa school ng araw na yon.
Nakilala nya si Hans ang weakness ni Heaven at alam ko ring tinawagan nya ang tatay nya para sagasaan si Heaven.
"Ia---"
"Its Skie" pagtatama ko.
"S-skie... Kamusta si Heaven?"
Tumawa ako ng mapait.
"Nagtatanong ka ba talaga? Hwag ka ng umarte Taylor. Alam kong isa ka sa mga may kagagawan nito." bigla syang namutla
"Wala akong kasalanan" matigas na sabi nya
"Talaga ba?" kinuha ko ang phone ko at sinearch ang phone log niya sa tatay nyang demonyo.
Pina hack ko kasi number nya kaya nakuha ni Rain ang phone log nya. Pati ang saved recovered conversation nya with her father.
Plinay ko yon at agad syang namutla.
"Hello, Taylor? How's your mission?"
"I tried to talked to Skie daddy, but he refused. But guess what? I met Heaven the girl your talking about. I knew she was Isay and he has a sibling named Hans. He's Heaven's weakness."
"Really? Your doing good."
"She trusted me easily. She even proved me that she and Skie was so close and inseparable. She also cared on her friends alot. But, could turn her back to them once they got careless on watching over Hans. She even could turned her back to Skie if he didn't watched over Hans well."
"Hmm, interesting. What's that Hans looked like?"
"A teenager around 15. Why? Change of plans?"
"Yes. Get close to Heaven and watch over Hans. Observe him rather."
"I couldn't do that. Once I'll get back at that school, Skie would ban me."
"Tsk. Then watch from afar. How Stupid of you."
"O-okay. Anyway I'll turned this off, Heaven would ride me to school."
"Oh is that so? I'll let you be tailed by your uncle, in that way I could see her personally. She'll be thinking that you'd be in danger once she'll drive you to school. So she'll be driving you here. I could catch a glimpse on her face. It'll help us with our plan."
"Really daddy? What's you motive anyway?"
"I want her dead. Her family is a big threat on ours. Her family's business rather."
"What's the point though?"
"You'll understand soon."
I turned off my recorder and faced her. Maya maya bigla syang lumuhod.
"I'm sorry Skie! I promised I didn't mean to, I was blackmailed. They said, they'll kill mom once I won't cooperate. Knowing that the only one who cared me like I was her own is my mother, I couldn't risked her dead."
I chuckled lightly....
"Do you think it'll differ if you obeyed them? Guys like them don't fulfill there words. Whether you listen to them or not, they will still kill whoever they wanted to. Whoever they feel to." tinignan ko siya ng napaka sama puno ng hinanakit at galit.
"However, I felt relieved that I turned my back to you. Because I never knew you could do that knowing how Heaven is dear to me. Plus, involving my sister Kiarra took the tool out of me." tinalikuran ko siya. "Forgiving is easy but forgetting is way to hard and another concern to start with. I hope you'll never regret what you choosed to do, Taylor."
Kinuyom ko ang kamao ko. "But for now, umalis ka na bago pa kita hindi matansya."
And I left her there alone....
