Someone's POV
‘Death, an irreversible cessation of all vital functions a human body has. A permanent stoppage of the heart's beat. Sighing of last breath. Not being able to wake up the next morning. Unable to see how the sun rose. A reality humans fear to encounter; poor souls.’ Elle yawned as she thought to herself, tapping the table, boredly staring nowhere.From time to time, her eyes would caught a glimpse of the doctor who was scrolling on her background profile.“You're so pretty.” Elle uttered and smiled. The doctor ignored her compliment and continued reading the details on the file.Ikinatawa niya iyon nang bahagya at dinilaan ang kanyang ibabang labi. “I wonder how you would look like...” Elle paused and rested her chin against her palm. “... bathing on your own blood.” Pagtatapos niya habang nakatitig sa magagandang mata ng babae. The doctor cleared her throat and faced her.“Are you aware of the actions you committed 2 years ago?” Tanong ng doktora sa kaniya.“Hm, which ones?” Mapaglarong ngumiti si Elle.“I'm sorry, the question's all wrong. You killed 27 people 2 years ago, why?” The doctor asked again.“I didn't kill anyone.”“Right, because you murdered them.”“I set them free from this hell.” Elle backfired.“Therefore, you do not deny any accusation that has been put upon your name?”“I need some coffee.”“Miss Castleion!” Hinampas ng doktora ang mesa at tumayo. She threw glares at Elle but she just watched how the doctor lost her temper. The doctor cleared her throat before sitting down. “Let me repeat the question, do you or do you not deny any accusation that has been put upon your name?”Ngayon ay mas kalmadong nagtanong ang doktora sa kaniya.“Tss, you're so boring. And no, I don't deny any of it, if that's enough to satisfy you.” Sa wakas ay sumagot ang dalaga sa tanong sa kaniya.“What is the first word that comes to your mind when you are in a dark room?” The doctor asked, ready to take down some notes.Elle leaned her back on the backrest of the chair, crossed her arms over her chest and let out a deep sigh. “Peace.”“That's how you view death." The doctor replied. Elle looked at her with amusement visible in her eyes and then laughed at the statement.Her laughter grew louder and louder, it covered the whole interrogation room. The doctors outside the white room were watching them, observing how Elle acts.“Who is she?” Tanong ng isang doktor. Ang iba sa kanila ay kinilabutan sa pagtawa ng dalaga habang ay iba ay nagbubulungan, hinuhusgahan siya.“Patient 156.”All their eyes turned to the guy in the black suit when he suddenly appeared, observing the insanity of the girl. They all bowed their heads to show some respect as the man walked towards the window glass to take a better view of Elle.Tumitig ang binata sa pigura ng dalaga sa loob ng puting silid habang ito ay walang humpay sa pagtawa.“I want her in my office. Now.” The guy commanded.“But Director--”, napatigil ang doktora nang tumikhim ang lalaki. Nangangahulugan na hindi nito nais malaman ang kanyang sasabihin.Sa halip ay ipinakita na lamang niya ang folder kung saan nakalakip ang impormasyon tungkol sa dalaga.Name: Eliora CastleionAge: 41Police's statement: Natagpuan namin s'ya sa isang lumang kubo sa liblib na baryo. Matagal na namin tinutunton kung saan siya nagtatago. Naabutan namin s'ya ngunit hindi siya nanlaban. Pinaghihinalaan s'yang kumitil ng dalawampu't pito (27) o higit pa na katao. Natagpuan namin ang lugar na pinaghihinalaang lungga ng isang illegal na grupo. Hindi s'ya tumanggi at ikinuwento pa kung paano n'ya sila pinatay isa-isa. May ipinakita kami sa kaniyang litrato at agad s'yang sumunod upang ituro kung saan n'ya itinapon ang katawan ng dati niyang nobyo. Kinilabutan kami sa sunod na ginawa niya. Magkakaibang lugar ang kaniyang binilugan. Nang puntahan namin 'yong lokasyon na binilugan n'ya, halos bumaliktad na ang sikmura namin. 6 na lugar ang aming tinungo. Isa para sa ulo, dalawa para sa magkabilang braso, dalawa sa mga binti at isa para sa katawan. Hindi na namin alam kung paano s'ya papakisamahan. Hindi s'ya nananakit at hindi rin mahirap pagsabihan. Wala siyang ibang ginagawa kung hindi ang titigan ka, at ngingitian. Minsan ay itatanong kung ano ang pangalan mo sabay tatawa. Madalas blangko lang ang kaniyang mukha. Walang reaksyon. Nag-oobserba. Nag-aalala na rin ako dahil wala ni isa sa mga tauhan ko ang mapalapit sa kaniya. Sana makatulong kayo.Ibinalik ng binata ang file sa doktora at muling tumitig sa dalaga. “I want her in my office, no more buts, no more questions asked.” With that, he left and proceeded to his office.The doctors were hesitant, worry filled their faces. The mere thought of a psychopath inside your office is disturbing enough. So why would he?Why would he spend his time on a patient whose head is filled with nothing but killing?In their eyes, Elle was nothing but a killer. A murderer. But in his eyes, she's special. And he will do anything to cure her. To bring her back. The love of his life.A room filled with screams. Shouting, yelling on top of their lungs. Confessing their sins. Begging for forgiveness. Begging for their life. Asking for salvation. They only remember Him, once they are in the brink of death. Pathetic... they really are... just bodies filled with sinful souls. So what's wrong if we take away their life? Do them a favor, since they are complaining how burdensome life is for them. But...What does it mean to take someone's life?“Ano bang kasalanan ko sa'yo?! I owe you nothing!”How does it feel to kill someone?“I love it... I love your warmth...”Blood spilling from their body.“Oh, now look what you've done. You're a mess. You filthy slut.”The room filled with their cries and screams.“Ayoko na! Tulungan n'yo ako!”Begging for mercy.“No! No! Please no more! Ahhh! t-tangina!”Begging for their life to be spared.“I wanna live, p-please let me go...”The feeling of betrayal...“You promised not to leave my side but you did! I cried out your name, hoping you'll come because that's what you promised me! I needed you... and you weren't there.”Satisfaction...“Ah! Yes, this feeling is what I sought to find! Finally I've found it.”Lust...“O-Ohh.. f*ck! Harder babe... ahh~”Pain...“Gusto ko rin maramdaman kung anong pakiramdam ng minamahal kasi nakakapagod. Nakakapagod din pala kapag mag-isa.”Obsession...“I'd do anything! I'll prove myself worthy of your love. Claim me, make me yours. Do anything you want with my body. I would risk my own life just to call you mine. And for you to call me yours. Take my life away. Own me.”Love...“No matter how many times you push me away, I will stay. No matter how hurt I am to see you with him, I will stay. Because that's the promise I gave you. And I won't break it. I already broke you, but please, give me a chance to love you again.”... and rejection.“You don't have to do anything because even if so, I still won't love you! There is no more room for love in this hell. If you expect me to fall just because you once saved my life, no, you're dead wrong. Because I saved me, when I was waiting for you.”Would you kill for money? Would you kill for love? What is the price of the safety of your loved ones? Handa ka bang pumatay? Handa ka bang kumitil ng isang buhay? What if you didn't want it, but the urge was too strong, you lost control?In a game, there are rules to be followed. Consequences to be faced. And prizes to claim. But what if, your life is on the line? You have no more cards to play up your sleeve. You have no choice but to... bet your own life. Are you still willing to continue? Are you brave enough to find out the truth? Are you hungry enough to ask for more?Kailangan matapang ka. Kung mahina ka, ikaw ang mauuna. Matibay ang sikmura, kung hindi bibigay ka agad. Wala kang awa na dapat ipakita. Dahil sa laro na 'to, kapag inuna mo ang puso mo, ikaw ang kawawa. Kailangan mautak ka, kung hindi, baka maunahan ka.You have to fight in order to win. If you don't, you'll die, as simple as that. That is the game of life, and we are the players. We hold our fate. And in this game, make one wrong move. Even make that slightest mistake, and you are out. Pop, like a bursting bubble.“Sit down and play wise gentlemen. I hope you brought luck with you because you are gonna need it. Get ready to draw your cards. Let the games, begin!”⚘ little ⊹ lies ··································································································································DISCLAIMER.

Tsk, always with her foul words.“T*ngina ano na naman 'to? Kalagan mo'ko hahambalusin kita ng dos por dos!” Maangas na hamon ni Klare. ‘Eh kung siya kaya ang hambalusin ko?’“Tulong! Kiwashi! Pakawalan mo ako kung sino ka man, please, I need to meet Kiwashi.” I scoffed after hearing her statement. ‘Marupok, dapat kitang unahin.’“Tulungan n'yo kami!

He was just standing there, watching us walk away, wearing his smile as always. I sighed at the sight.“He'll be fine. Ayaw niya rin umalis na hindi nakakarating si Crimson. You know how he cares for her. Besides, kanina ka pa inaaya niyan oh.” Tugon n'ya at inginuso ang nobya kong si Psyche. I chuckled at his statement.Muli kong nilingon si Hellios at huminga ng malalim. ‘They will be fine.’ I stated at the back of my mind, trying to convince myself. But something is really bothering me.“Chineck naman lahat ng sasakyan ano?” I asked him again. Napatawa na lamang nang bahagya si Knythe at pinaupo ang anak na si Bullet sa loob ng sasakyan.“Stop being such a worrywart and hop in.” He said in assurance. I sm
Harris' POVNasa living room kami ngayon ng resthouse na tinutuluyan namin. Nakayuko ako't hindi mapakali habang si Psyche ay nakaalalay sa akin.Pauli-uli sa harap ko si Hadean, nag-aalala sa maaaring kalagayan ng pinsan niya. Knythe is checking up on Crimson, who is unconscious at the moment. May mga galos din siya at makikita mo ang kapaguran sa kanyang mukha. Halos lahat kami rito ay puno ng pagtataka at kinakabahan. Sari-saring mga tanong ang namuo sa aking isipan. Mga katanungan na nais kong masagot. Sumasakit ang ulo ko sa kaiisip kung bakit ganito ang kalagayan ng kaibigan namin.‘I knew it. I knew something was wrong pero hindi ko sinunod ang nararamdaman ko. P*nyeta!’ Inis na singhal ko sa aking sarili.Agad kaming nabuhayan nang marinig ang pag-ubo ni Crimson. Luminga-linga muna siya sa kanyang paligid at bigla na lamang napaluha.“Crimson, ayos ka lang ba?” Nag-aalalang tanong ni Estevan.Nagpumilit umupo ang dalaga. She grunted and held her head because of her sudden actio

Read at your own risks.Crimson's POV“Meet me in hell, Hellios.” Saad ko habang ngiti ay nakakubli sa aking labi. Tumitig akong muli sa kalangitan na binabalot ng kadiliman. Puno ng mga bituin na nagbibigay ningning sa langit, at buwan na nagbibigay liwanag sa gabi.Take out the stars and the moon, and we are staring at a space. A total void. With nothing to see, and nowhere to go to. Unti-unti akong nakaramdam ng pagod, bumigat ang talukap ng aking mga mata dala ng labis na panghihina dahil sa nangyaring trahedya. It has been forever since I felt such peace. Or at the least, it's how it feels. I let myself sleep on that dark place, letting my worries go.“Hmm... ” napadáing ako nang makaramdam ng kakaibang sensasyon sa aking katawan. Nilalamig ako, ang hinala ko'y wala akong saplot maski isa ngunit sa kabila ng lamig ay nakaramdam ako ng kakaibang init sa aking katawan.Masarap,
Crimson's POV“What are you doing there, Bullet?” Tanong ko sa bata at naupo sa kama, sa tabi niya. He was holding a book and was really focusing his attention on it.“I'm reading a book po.” He replied without taking his gaze off of the book. Nagpigil naman ako ng tawa nang makitang baliktad ang librong binabasa niya. It was a picture book of the story Little Red Riding Hood.“What happened in the story?” I asked him.He pointed at the book. “This is a tree po, tita Crimson.”“Mhm-hmm, and then?” I urged him to continue while brushing his hair softly.“And then, Daddy and I picked apples from the tree.” Maikling tugon niya.I bit my lower lip and let out a soft chuckle.“Really? You were in the story too? What about tita, nand'yan din ba ako?” Tanong ko na ikinatango niya nang paulit-ulit. He flipped the pages, seems like he's trying to find something on the book.“This is you po, Tita. Because Daddy said you're a grandma.” He cutely said while pointing at the picture of the Grandma,

Hindi pa rin ako pinapansin ni Harris simula noong mangyari 'yong sa van.Agad akong namula sa isipin na iyon.“Harris? Hindi ka pa ba tapos?” Sigaw ko dahil kanina pa siya sa banyo. But all I heard was low grunts and heavy breaths.“Tsh, nagsolo pa nga.

Nahiga ako sa kama at tumitig sa kawalan. I want to hurt Lorelei. I want to make her suffer so bad, to the point she will regret that she even existed.I'm going mad in this place. Hindi ako makakilos nang maayos. Hadean is such a pain in the ass. She had the police investigate the incident. Tsk!“But I shouldn't worry. They won't find anything.

Nagpauli-uli ako sa harap ng salamin habang kagat-kagat ang aking kuko.Napatigil ako at tumitig sa repleksyon ko.“You seem unsure of your actions.” I talked to myself in front of the mirror. “No!

Crimson's POV‘Ah, yes. A happy ending. The bad guy gets caught. Protagonist lives! Survives the most unfortunate saga of her life. Be with the man she loves. Peace for everyone, indeed. Everybody wins. There was hope after all. Well... just not for all of us.’I poured the pig's blood all over the guy sitting in front of me, tied up, unable to do anything. The thick blood ran down his naked body. “Now then,” I whistled and Greed came running inside.“Shh, calm down. Sit, Greed. Good boy!” I caressed his fur. “Greed's gorgeous isn't he? Look how healthy he looks.” I knelt down and slowly took off his muzzle. “Do you know what I feed him, hm?”“I'm sorry... please...” pagmamakaawa ng lalaki. I kept on playing with Greed and ignored the guy. Ugh, seriously, humans. They only beg for life once they see death chasing after them.

The lady in front of Elle was tapping her pen on the table. She fixed her eyeglasses, scrolling on Elle's background profile.“You're so pretty.” Elle smiled at her. The doctor ignored Elle's compliment and continued reading the details on the file.Ikinatawa niya iyon ng bahagya at dinilaan ang kanyang ibabang labi. “I wonder how you would look like...” Elle rested her chin against her palm. “... bathing on your own blood.” Saad ni Elle habang nakatitig sa magagandang mata ng babae.

Hellios' POVMatapos ang gabing iyon ay wala na ulit kaming narinig mula sa Legion. The place burned down, the members were taken care of. Agad na kumalat sa balita ang nangyari, ngunit agad din iyong nawala. Someone took down the article, but words are still spreading. It's been a few months since then. Isa sa mga nasangkot sa insidenteng iyon ay nasa pangangalaga na ng institusyon namin.And as soon as I learned she's here, I hurried to see her. Nang makarating ay siya agad ang hinanap ko. “Where is she?” Bungad na tanong ko kay Azrael. She looked hesitant to tell me but still gave in. Agad akong sumunod kay Azrael.She lead me in front of a white room. There, I saw her, sitting down, clueless about what's going on. My hand turned into a fist when I saw her hands cuffed to one another, as well as her feet. She was wearing a white gown and the handcuffs were attached to the table.“Is this really necessary?” Pigil ang inis na tanong ko.“It is.” Napalingon ako at nakita ang isang lala

I glanced at Knythe. “You didn't tell her?!”“How was I supposed to?! She ran off after attacking me!”“Crimson!” Sigaw ko. “Bloody hell!” I shouted when the blade cut my cheeks. Huminga ako nang malalim at nanggigigil na sinugod si Yvan.

I went out of my car and surveyed the place. I took a deep breath before entering the building. After two years, ngayon na lang ulit ako makakapasok dito. “Welcome, Sir. To whom shall I make your reservations?” Nakangiting tanong ng babae. I tilted my head upon hearing her question.“I don't need reservations.” Payak na tugon ko. “I'm here to see the boss.”“I'm afraid that's not going to happen, Sir. The Director is on a meeting at the moment, unless you appointed a meeting, you cannot speak with him.”“Just call him and we're done.” Unti-unti nang nauubos ang pasensya ko.“Do you have a card?” Tanong niyang muli.“No, I don't.

He suddenly settled on top of me and hugged me tightly, burying his face on my neck. “Get up.” Utos ko ngunit lalo lang siyang sumiksik sa akin. I chuckled softly before pushing him, “ang bigat mo.
