"I already told you. Reign will lose this battle," Angel leered.
I gave her a death-glare, hoping that would be enough to just vanish her right then and there.
"Oh, poor, Dave. I think you might lose her again just like the last time. When was that? Oh, eleven years ago!" she said then laughed evilly.
I wriggled my wrist that was tied by a rope. Its bond had loosened a bit. Just a little bit and I could get rid of it.
I turned to her and smirked.
"We're not gonna lose in this battle, because this is your end game," I replied before slamming my head on her.
She immediately losed her balance and she landed on the floor as she moaned in pain.
I suddenly felt a bit dizzy from the impact, but I managed to free myself from the rope. I immediately went to the door to help Reign before Angel could recove

ARYA"Hurry up, Arya, the announcement is about to began!" Monica yammered who had been too excited to go to the function hall.I put my lipstick in my bag first before addressing her."Do I look okay?" I asked her while still fixing my hair."You've asked that question for the nth time now," she replied with annoyance and just folded her arms. "You know, Eroll's eyes will always land on you. Believe me. So stop making a fuss about how you look. You're beautiful."The words "you're beautifu" would have been fine if she hadn't mentioned Eroll's name."Oh, why are you frowning?" she queried while feigning innocence."Tsk. Let's go!" I bleated.When I said that, I walked straight to the door and went out first. I could hear her laughter again as we exit the room and made our way towards the function hall

CHRISWe all couldn’t believe the comeback of Bermuda. The rouge group who did nothing but ruin someone else's life and creating chaos in the academy. The last time we had an encounter was when the student council president was held captive at the MLK club. After that, the group was suspended, however, they were back now with another storm under their sleeves.The woman named Qea still couldn't stop crying. Arya had been trying to comfort her, and surprisingly, the girl calmed down. Never thought that Arya could do that. As for Dave and Zanaya, they seemed to be bored. Dave was about to talk to Zanaya a while ago, but then, they were interrupted. Wrong timing.I stared at the girl. She's looking at her surroundings frantically, as if someone would grab her hand and chop it away just like the hand in the gift box."Maybe it's better that we just talk at the headquarters, there a

"And as for the fingerprint that was found on her hand, do you know someone named Leona?" the Chief asked Qea."Leona Florentino?" she inquired and her eyes widened slightly. I took noticed of her hands that began to shook again as if the mention of that name brought another fear in her system."Yes.""She's a former member of the club, but Queenie removed her because her name doesn't start with Q," she divulged."That explains it! She's probably exacting revenge on you guys," Zanaya exclaimed as if winning the lotto. Her right hand was on her chin and she seemed to be forming another theory in her mind. The room fell silent for a moment as we tried to digest this new revelation."Wait, where d

ZANAYAMy heartbeat quickened at what I heard. My clammy hands felt like frozen from the chilling wind. I tried to find in my memory if I have encountered this man before, but all I drew was a blank sheet.He knew me. How did that happen?As far as I know, I have been here in the academia for less than a year, so, it’s very impossible for me to know the boss he’s referring. Whoever that boss was, I'll make sure that we'll end him."Who ordered you?" Dave asked.The man laughed again. He seemed to be mocking us. "Soon, you will meet him. Don't be too excited, Dave," he leered.I badly want to wipe off that smirk on his filthy face."You still don't want to suffer, do you?" he added."What?" Dave snapped at him.While they were busy talking, I slowly approached where the

The exam for the first semester was finally over."Well, this calls for a celebration!" Monica said with burgeoning excitement"Cheers, my friends!" said Arya and raised her bottle of soft drinks for a toast.The six of us were here at the cafeteria and eating our lunch. After the case of Ms. Q, we focused on our studies for the meantime, but of course, Dave was still very attentive to the case. Thankfully, there were no bloody incidents in a week. Dave also never failed to update us on the progress of the Bermuda and JDC case. This included our suspicion that the two groups were allies or have joined forces.Within a week, we found out that it was possible that JDC had a connection to the rouge group. It turned out that they have one goal and

ZANAYAWhen I opened my eyes, I immediately noticed that I am in my familiar room. I darted my eyes until it landed to the woman sitting next to me."My daughter, I'm so glad you're awake," she said and turned to the door. "Manang Ising, get Reign's things ready, we'll be dressing her up."I frowned because of what I heard."Mom, what's going on?"Instead of answering my question, she hugged me tightly. I felt the warmth of her embrace for the first time, something that I haven't felt for a long time. It felt so foreign like I am hugging someone else and not my very own mother."I'm so glad you're here, Reign," she said as she let go of our hug.I repeated my question to her, and this time, she smiled before answering. "Reign, I know that you're against the joint venture because of your engagement with Dave, but please, t

DAVEI was awakened to the sound of people murmuring. They seemed so engrossed with what they're saying that they haven't noticed me. I roamed my eyes around the white room. Judging by the white walls and the smell of alcohol that lingered around the room, I am positive that I am currently inside one of the rooms in the hospital.What exactly am I doing here?"Dave! I am glad you're finally awake," Monica was the first to notice that I have already gained consciousness."What happened?" I groggily asked."You were poisoned."I looked at Monica to see if she was joking, but she seemed sincere though.I also noticed that Chris and Reign were not in the room. I was wondering where they were. Reign was supposed to be my fiancé, yet she's not even here by my side. I guessed she was furious of the sudden announcement of

DAVEI let out a bitter laugh. "Are you sure? You might have made a mistake again?" I leered even though I was aware of the presence of her parents inside the room.She glared at me and her perfect eyebrows knitted. "I am definitely sure, Dave," she shot back and even stressed the mention of my name.I often lost my temper when Reign was around. I don't know why, but I just couldn't bring back the friendship that we used to have. When I try to talk to her, we always end up arguing about nonsense things. It was just so hard to talk to her, and right now, our family wanted us to be together in a serious relationship. If that happened, it would be the start of world war three. I couldn't just destroy something that I've been trying to build."That's right, and we have one big revelation," Chris drawled.I don't know but I'm also annoyed with Chris right now.

ZANAYAI repeatedly called Dave as he ran after the man wearing a hoodie.I could do nothing, but follow them too.We arrived at the airport near the victim's house and the chase took us all the way inside, to the comfort room of the airport. We saw the suspect went inside the CR, but he suddenly disappeared from our sight."Where is he now?" Dave asked. He was still gasping for breath.In the hallway of the CR, six people came out.First was a civilian-- a man, quite tall, carrying a suitcase and wearing a brown jacket, and eyeglasses, and he also looked sweaty.I immediately cornered him so that he wouldn't go away. I showed him my ID as a detective so that he would cooperate.Later, a woman also wearing a jacket, tall, somewhat stout, and somewhat dark, came out of the CR. There was another girl with her and she

One of his eyebrows was raised while holding the papers that had been scattered earlier on the floor."You got something there?" he questioned.I approached him and held my phone in front of him showing the evidence I captured from the crime scene.His eyebrows knitted in confusion. "And what should we do with a letter to a family?"I clicked my tongue. It looked like the great Dave Zyfford lost his touch on Detective works."Duh. It could be a great help for us to solve the case," I stated in a matter of fact tone."Babe, you've got to be kidding me," he said which mad

That's Christopher Enriquez."Ah, here's my gift," he murmured shyly after a moment of just staring at each other.Arya let out a laughed as she nudged Monica on her side to which the latter just ignored and simply gave me an encouraging smile.I took it and stared at the box. "What's this?""Open it, quick!""Wow, ha! You're even more excited, Eroll," Arya commented. Eroll clearly ignored Arya's remark and just stared at the box as if anticipating it to explode or whatever. This better not explode or else I would throw it at Eroll's face."Open it," Chris urged with a smile.I shrugged my thoughts away and I began opening it. I was surprised when I saw a calculator inside. It

ZANAYAI stopped my car at the place where he currently stays. It's the place where I wouldn't even thought of visiting, but here I am inside the car, contemplating whether to get out or drive away and hide again.However, I kept on reminding myself for how many times that there was no room for cowardice. I needed to face my past so that I could move on towards my future.The things that happened to me a year ago were incomparable. It was an experience that was worth sharing as it had impacted my whole life to become the person I've become today. Life had made me tougher. It made me realized that truth always prevail no matter how much effort we exerted just to hide it. I've learned that trust was such a precious thing you could give to anyone. Trust was fragile too. It's delicate. If it was broke once, it would be hard to glue the broken pieces together.I let out a sigh. This is it.I pushed the door and got out of the car. Now,

CHRIS"Where are you after the defense?" Eroll fired the first question to a woman. Her wide eyes widened even more when she realized that the question was being addressed to her."I-I'm in the lobby, I'm about to go home that time..." she answered in a shaky voice."What about you?" Eroll inquired another student."My group and I are in the Cafeteria," the girl replied nonchalantly. She seemed to not care that she's one of the suspects and clearly unbothered by what's happening. Either she's not involved or she's just good at hiding emotions.Eroll continued to ask questions until he reached the frowning man who had been suspicious to me ever since I saw him."I'm in the lobby too," he replied sparingly. He and Eroll even held eye contact for a while before the latter averted his gaze to us.We sorted the students who we

You're really slow," shouted Monica who was outside the headquarters with the others.I let out an irritated sigh when I failed to tie my shoe laces properly."Seriously?" someone blurted in front of me.I looked up and saw Monica's annoyed face.I got up and faced her. "I'm done!"After saying that, I pinched her nose and ran to the door while laughing so hard.She groaned audibly as she tried to catch up."Is everything complete?" Dave asked who was seemingly bored judging by his usual dull eyes."Aye! Aye! Captain," Eroll replied playfully.They started walking towards the car.Today, we were invited for a case. And guess what, everyone was excited since it's been a long time since we were able to solve real case

ARYAMonica sent a message first to Dave before we started walking towards the MRF. There were no traces of blood on our way anymore so we didn't know which part of the academy where Zanaya was taken. Our only hope was the MRF. I really she's safe there.When we saw the MRF, the two of us hid in an acacia tree to wait for Dave.Soon, we heard the approaching footsteps of the three men."We think Zanaya was right there!" Monica whispered to the them."Look, the MRF has a secret passageway out of the academy, and I think that's the reason why JDC decided to stay right there," Dave explained. "I asked my father's men to guard all the exits, including the exit in that MRF room, so Nico could not escape, unless he creates another chaos.""We also have back-up policemen, if we haven't gotten out of the MRF within ten minutes, they will come in and

ARYAWe hurried up the stairs to the second floor where the Control Room was located. Monica and I accompanied some rescuers to rescue Zanaya who was inside. Dave with Eroll and Chris were outside and were also looking for JDC aka Nico.Who would have thought that the venerable Student Council President was the mastermind of all the violence at Zyfford Academy? No one would expect him to be able to do that. His life was now tainted with black due to his past.As for Zanaya, I am happy that she still gave us her loyalty up to this point, though I am so worried about her current state as of the moment. I really hope nothing bad happened to her. She's my very first friend here in Zyfford and was also the reason why we became friends with Dave's group. If not for her, I am sure my blood would still boil for the E4.It was already smoky in this part of the building so the rescuers would n

Arya exclaimed with tears in her eyes.She had been hysterical when everything had sunk in her mind. A series of sobs from her could now be heard along with the shouts of commands from the authorities as they tried to put out the fire.I should have listened to them. I should have listened to her. This shouldn't have happened. I could have helped her. If only I didn't let my pride and ego get in the way. We could have made a better plan.I tugged at my hair while still staring at the burning part of the Broadcast Room.Why didn't I listen to her? She's trying to explain, but I refused to listen. I even started hating her. Damn, I think I hate myself
