It is hard to believe in supernatural creatures and powers. Things like those are laughing-stuffs in reality, but what will you do if one day, that reality you are living will eventually be the fantasy you don't believe exists?
View More12. We are oneSteven's POV"Ano 'yon?!" Royce loudly asked when we went outside for the second clue. We exchange glances and run towards where the loud noise came from.We saw how the library exploded. Jana, Ria and Kaye are all standing outside, having their eyes wide open and their mouths hanging. My forehead creased in curiousness. I looked up to where they are staring, and my heart seems to stop to beat.I saw the newbie standing in the middle of the sacred fire. No one have that power in this whole world, except the Princess. I felt electricity runs down to my spine. I've never been this shocked my whole life, never been this speechless. I can't seem to think straight and my head's about to explode as I watched her.
11. SecretMaaga akong nagising kinabukasan. I don't usually wake up too early since I am not a morning person, however, it's so different today.What happened yesterday bothers me. I don't know what exactly happened and how it started, but one thing is for sure, there's someone who's trying to avoid me from entering that aquarium.I could've been fine, or not. I heard voices from afar, I can see them even if I am shutting my eyes closed, but something's telling me that it's not normal. Everything that's happening to me is not normal."Scarr!"Or perhaps, I really do have powers? I don't know. The only th
10. Rare It's already midnight but still, I wasn't even able to take a nap. Ligtas kaming nakabalik sa MRA, together with the three and I have this fulfillment in me dahil nagawa namin ng maayos ang unang misyon ko dito sa mundo nila. I don't know what exactly to feel, or to say, or to even do. I never expressed myself openly before, either I am happy, pissed off or sad, I always have just one emotion on my face and that is being neutral. Just nothing. I moved and flipped myself. Niyakap ko ang tuhod ko and I looked like a baby now inside a mother's bump. I keep on thinking about what I am experiencing these passed few hours. I hear voices from afar. Clearly. Wala akong pinagsabihan, kahit pa nagtataka na din sila pero nanatili akong tahimik. There is something inside me that's telling me not to give off this information about me t
9. AwakeningHindi ko alam kung dapat ba akong matawa o mainis sa inaasta nila ngayon. They are staring at me like they want to ask something but they will eventually just look away like nothing.Marahas akong napabuntong hininga at nilapag ang kubyertos ko. Umaga na ngayon at no choice kaming pupunta sa school ko dati dahil na din kay Mommy."What's the problem?" I asked them. Lahat sila ay umiwas ng tingin, well except Rage and Steven. 'Tong magpinsan na 'to, malapit ko nang kaltukan."Nothing." Rage fired me back. Pero there is something in his voice na hindi ko mapinpoint. Agad kumunot ang noo ko.But just like the usual me, I just shrugged and nodded at him. Kung wala, edi wala. Bakit pa ba ipipilit na meron?"Talaga bang kailangan pa nating pumasok sa school mo dito?" Tamad na tanong ni Steven.&nb
8. Try me"P-princess.." Everyone in the room gasps when I entered. Ganoon ba talaga nakakabigla ang pagsulpot ko dito?Teka.. Hindi ko pala alam kung pareho ng time frame ang mundong ito sa magical world. Kaya siguro sila nabibigla. Siguro matagal na akong wala dito, pero kung sa magical world ay ilang linggo pa lang akong nandoon.Naupo ako sa sofa. Pinaupo ko din sina Steven na tingin nang tingin sa paligid. They are being observant."Bakit ngayon ka lang bumalik, Princess?" Tanong ni Natalia nang makaupo siya sa tapat ko. She's my right hand in this group. Our gang."Why? How long I've been not around?" Kahit ako ay nagtataka.Nag-isip naman siya. "Almost 6 months na, Princess."Napaawang ang bibig ko. Ganoon na katagal? Napatingin ako kina Rage. Siguro, nahuhulaan nila an
7. Way back home Habang nag aayos ng gamit, hindi ko maiwasan na hindi mag isip. This is my chance to come back. Pwede na akong hindi bumalik, pero bakit parang may pumipigil sa akin? Parang ayaw kong iwan ang mundong ito. Napabuntong hininga ako. Simula nang mapunta ako dito, ang dami na agad nangyari at nagbago. Pero hanggang ngayon naman ay wala pa din akong charm. Baka hindi talaga ako dapat nandidito, baka nagkakamali lang sila. Pero ang isiping iyon ang parang nakakapagpabigat sa damdamin ko. Sinarado ko na ang bag ko at lumabas ng dorm. May ilang napapatingin sa akin na parang nagtataka kung bakit ako nakabihis pang alis. Ito ang isa sa nga sikreto ng mga nasa A-Diamonds at SilverCrest class. May mga misyon kami na ang mga karaniwang estudyante ay wala. Pagdating ko sa opisina ni Sir Cedric ay halos kumpleto na sil
6. Heartbeats are getting louderAfter the scene earlier in library, mabilis akong bumalik sa dorm ko. Nalilito ako sa nararamdaman ko. Why? Bakit parang naaapektuhan ako kahit hindi naman dapat?My mom told me every dayTo always be careful of guysBecause love is like playing with fireI'll get hurtNapahiga ako sa sofa. Hindi na ako nag-effort pang pumasok sa loob ng kwarto dahil wala namang ibang tao dito kundi ako lang. Hindi ko maipaliwanag kung bakit ganito."A goddess doesn't have any right to love and be loved."Hindi ba parang ang unfair naman? Pinipili lang naman sila pero bakit kailangan nilang magdusa? Bakit kailangan na maranasan nila ang isang bagay na hindi naman sila a
5. She's stronger than youMinutes passed and still, hindi pa din ako natatawag. Nabobored na ako at inaantok. Halos pare-pareho lang naman sila ng stunts at wala nang bago doon."Steven Stanford and Skyller Stanford." So it's the battle between brothers, huh?Napatutok kaming lahat. I tilted my head as I stared at them. Bakit ganoon? Kahit saang anggulo tingnan ay hindi sila magkamukha. Kung hindi nga lang sila magka-apelyido ay hindi ako maniniwala na magkapatid sila.Nanatili lang silang nakatingin sa isa't isa, walang balak umatake."They're doing it again." Nagtataka akong napalingon kay Ice.&nbs
4. Getting to know the magical worldNang matapos kaming kumain ay dinala nila ako sa garden. Ito ang nagsisilbing training grounds para sa mga may charms na may kinalaman sa halaman at bulaklak. Tahimik lang akong nagmamasid sa kanila. Unang beses kong magkaroon ng mga taong tatawagin na kaibigan, alam kong mga pagbabago na mangyayari sa akin, pero hindi pa din maiaalis ang ugali kong ito."Galing ka sa mundo ng mga mortal?" Hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa din ako sanay sa ganoong tawag. Kapag nagmula ka sa mundo na mayroon ako, mahihirapan kang paniwalaan ang ilang bagay katulad ng pagkakaroon ng kapangyarihan, pero heto na nga at nasa harapan ko na ang mga patunay.Matipid akong tumango sa tanong ni Kaye. Nakapalibot sila sa akin kaya pakiramdam ko ay nasa hot seat ako.
