Haxielle
It's 8:55pm.
The massacre will start in minutes. I am playing with the darts in the room aiming the center.
I am mad.
I'm very pissed this day.
How dare him make me stay for detention? My alarm rang indicating it's 9pm already kaya napangiti ako at lumabas sa kwarto.
"Where are you going, Axel?" I flinched a bit ng marinig ang boses ni Remi. Inangat ko ang aking tingin. She's standing right there in front of me looking confused while brushing her teeth.
I sighed. Naglakad ako papunta sa lamesa at uminom ng baso tubig.
"I'm going to play." I finally answered and fixed my mask and hood. She walk towards me with a smile on her face not minding the bubbles staying on her mouth.
"What game?" She asked.
The siren turned on. Napatayo siya ng maayos at tinignan ang buong paligid.
Good evening Lyxians!
The 9pm rule is occuring... CCTV or any recorder was turned off until 6 in the morning. Enjoy the night, Lyxians!I smiled and walk towards the door. Before I step the room out, I glanced at her.
"This game."
--------
"Who are you?!" Napakamot ako ng tenga sa lalaking 'to.
He is stuck in the corner scared of me.
"A freak! HELP! It's a freak! Fr-" I cut his head off using my katana. Napapikit ako sa tumalsik na dugo sa damit ko. I crouched and grab his head.
"Bakit freak? Kahit violet mata ko, freak na agad? Hindi ba pwede lucky charm? Kase lucky kang mamatay ngayon sa kamay ko. Hihihi... Ay hala! Deads ka na pala, sorry." I chuckled and slam his head in the wall until it crushed like a watermelon.
I heard someone sobbing behind me.
She's naked. The bed sheets are the only ones covering her body. I fiercely walk towards her and grab her chin at hinarap ito sa akin.
"What do you think it feels like? That death is already in front of you? Also, Is it fun? Cheating on your boyfriend?" I grip in her chin narinig ko ang tunog ng bali niyang buto sa mukha. I want her skull to break into pieces.
She shook her head again and again. I was about to stab her when a dagger passed to my eyes hitting the girl first. I look at the window kung saan nangaling ito.
"N, saglit lang ako nawala nangalawang ka agad." She jokingly said. She crashed the window and enter the room. She's wearing her revealing assassin suit.
Nagpa-ikot ikot siya sa kwarto atsaka tinignan ung mga bangkay. Lumapit siya sa babae at tinarak pa ng maayos ang patalim.
"It's 30 mins and 3 seconds ago and it is Grim Reaper for now. Wag mo muna akong tawagin niyan. You should change your name to Vixen for the mean time." I mocked Remi. Tsk! We can only say our code names here.
"Nice! Vixen, is a wonderful name. Mas lalo akong naging sexy sa pangalan." I rolled my eyes to her. Tss...
"Btw, Shot wants to communicate with you." She handed me an ear piece.
"Shot, who?" I asked.
"Ka- you know what just answer her." She tossed the ear piece at agad kong sinalo to.
"Who is this?" I asked coldly.
"Ah. Eh. It's me Kamie. I'm sorry di kita nasabihan since I am not into this. I am watching you right now look at the light bulb." Tumingala ako at may nakitang umiilaw na pulang dot sa ilaw.
"Did you bugged every room?" I asked at tumingin humiga sa kama kasama ung bangkay ng babae.
"W-well, definitely yes!" I smiled at the camera though she can't see it because of mask.
"Well, welcome to the team, Shot."
"Don't worry Grim Reaper. I will be your eye in the bloody times." She assured me with her voice. Napairap ako doon.
I jumped out the room leaving my sign of the Blood Moon and Scythe. Like my birthmark that only shows on the full moon.
The moon was watching on us. The every brutal move of mine. Vixen is running behind my shadow perfectly hidden. She knows, that we are both thirst for blood every night.
I stopped ng may grupo ng taong papalapit sa akin, sa amin.
They are like soldiers because they are in sync. All of them got a mask with special designs of it. Nice~
Narinig kong biglang napaubo si Shot nung makita ito. Tumalikod ako at nagsalita. I can still feel their light foot steps.
"Grim you are in danger! That's them! The Masterpiece... the rank 1 gang! Magnum Opus. You have to go right now." She sounded afraid in every word. Then I should be the rank zero? I'm higher than them.
"Listen, Shot. Once, a Grim come out to play. She will never be stopped to slay." Vixen said to Kamie at binalik ang tingin sa akin.
It seems they are lucky to face me, today.
My cloak is hiding me. I decided to put on some cloak earlier. This one is really special.
"Who are you?" The guy in the right side asked me. He got the carving of number five on the side of his mask. Their eyes can be only seen. Damn... they have voice changer too.
"I think that's Grim Reaper the one they are talking about, 5th." Humarap ako sa kanila dahilan upang ang mga tingin nila ay lumipat sa akin.
"Uno, What should we do about him or her?" The guy with three in the guy have one in mask.
"Hey! Look at his eyes. It's violet." The one with four exclaimed pointing at my glaring violet eyes.
"He's a freak." Bulong nung isang may 6. Napataas ang kilay ko sa sinabi niya.
I just stared at them talking about me.
"Remove your mask." Uno ordered. Tila ba automatikong nag-init ang ulo ko nung magsalita ito. I smirked.
"Who are you to command me?" I ridiculously asked. Narinig ko ang paghagikhik ni 5th sa sinabi ko.
Napahagod sa sintido si Uno na naiinis sa akin. Nabatukan ni 6th si 5th dahil sa ginawa nito. I heard the 4th chuckled.
"Because we have a power." 3rd said. I manly laughed. Shame on him! That's lame.
I was shocked when I blinked and the guy Uno is right there trying to remove my mask. I quickly dodge at jump away from him. His stealth is incredible. I licked my lips in excitement.
He was about to remove it again nang matigil ito sa isang gang na nakita kami. This is getting boring.
"Shoot! That's Magnum Opus!" They are running towards our direction. Bunch of fools. I saw Vixen slaughtered the whole gang and motion me to go.
Adik, you don't have to tell me.
I quickly disappeared without anyone seeing me. Uno's gaze turned into me but he was too late. I saluted at him as a sign off.
Ciao!
--------
Uno
I quickly look at him ng biglang naglaho presensya niya.
Damn, I was too late!
But.. those eyes they're familiar.
The whole gang who tried to attack us was brutally murder by another mysterious presence. That guy is with someone.
"Grim Reaper got the most damage this night." Anunsyo ni 6th. My blood boiled up hearing that news.
Who are you?
Grim Reaper...

HaxielleTahimik akong kumain habang nag kwe-kwentuhan sila Kamie at Remi. "Are you going to eat or talk?" I coldly asked to them. Remi looked at me with confusing eyes."N-""I said it's Grim.""Hala teh! Meron ka?" Agad ko siyang binato ng tinapay nakailag ito at sinalo ang isa sa ito."Shut up! I'm just asking because you both haven't eat a single piece of the pasta I cooked." I said, annoyed because they're not eating the food I cooked."Hindi kase masarap." I instantly glared at her and throws the bread knife towards her."Joke lang, Uy si Axel concerned." She teased me."Langya, I'm concerned you don't like the food. Since you don't give that to me and I will trash it." Tumayo ako sa lamesa at kinuha ang plato nito sabay tapon sa basurahan.She's too
-Haxielle-What did I just do?! Halos mahiwalay na yung buhok ko sa anit dahil sa kakagulo at sabunot nito kanina. I just freakin' let my guard down, damn it! Biglang bumukas ang pintuan at napansin ko ang aura ni Remi. I raised my head up to see her."Did you just make a stupid move, Axel?" She knows and alam kong pinapahiya ko sarili ko."Yes I did, at sobrang baba ng rason." I slammed myself to the bed in frustration. There's a moment of silence between us.Remi laughed breaking the silence. Tagos sa atay ung tawa eh."HAHAHA! Pre! Di ko alam kung ano yon pero sobrang nakakatawa." Napahiga ito habang tumatawa.I sat in the
-Haxielle-"Hector?!" Remi and I said in unison."You know Master Hector?" Elijah asked. Hector turned his swivel chair to listen on us.Tumingin ako kay Carter na nasa likod ni Ash nagtatago. Lumabas ito habang nagp-peace sign sa akin."He's our butler." Carter answered which made every one gasped except the four of us samantalang tumaas ang kilay ni Ash."Wow! A noisy Merdigan is keeping a secret! Pero seryoso nga?" Vissy exclaimed. Three of us just nod at her.Hector cleared his throat before saying something."All of you, Student Council including Remilla Cage was assigned to guard Lady Heaven Morisson due to threat of terrorism attack happening lately in Morrison Clan." Hector announced.
-Haxielle- We rushed into the crime scene.A woman in her mid 20's was lying on the ground. Her eyes are wide open the legs were stretched."What happened?" Mr. Morrison asked."Mr. Morrison, she unexpectedly collapsed on the floor sir, ginawa po namin ang lahat upang pigilan ngunit nawalan na ito ng buhay." Paliwanag ng isang maid.Lumapit ako at sinuri ang katawan. This look... I've done this many times."She's poisoned." Sabi ko. Lumapit si Ash at sinuri ang katawan. Hexton wear his gloves at sinuri ang buong kusina."I'm sure she drank this." Hexton showed a cup with a tea."Seal it kid, I'm making someone to test that." Sabi ni Mr. Morrison. Hexton throws the content in the sink and seal it carefully. There's something in there na nagpaduda sa akin lalo.Pagkatapos non ay pinabalik kami ni Mr. Morris
-Haxielle-"Ok na ba yung saksak mo sa likod, Axel?" Naga-alalang tanong sa akin ni Remi. Sa totoo lang, ok naman talaga ako eh."It's nothing, thanks for helping me out last night." Sumilay naman ang ngiti sa labi nito."Ano ka ba Axel?! Ikaw nga dapat palakpakan ko ng bongga eh. Acting is life ka kasi. Buti nalang sumunod agad yung insan mong unggoy." Masayang sabi nito habang pinapalakpakan ako.Tch! Everything was already set up.I can't still believe Uno was Hexton. But still, 50/50 parin because I am not sure.Biglaang hinila ni Remi kamay ko kaya nakaramdam ako ng unting kirot sa likod."Remi! My back!" Reklamo ko dito at tila wala itong narinig."Anong my back, my back?! Pasabi-sabi ka pa diyan na it's nothing. Tara na naghihintay na si Kamie." Walang awa ako nitong hinila.
-Haxielle- I stopped in the middle of the hall way ng makita kong tumatakbo ang Student Council. President's face is filled with seriousness. When they passed through me sumunod ako sa kanila. Nasa tabi ako ni Carter na halatang problemado."What happened, Carter?" Tanong ko dito. Mukhang napansin niya ako kaya bumagal ang paglakad nito.He ruffled his hair bago niya ako sinagot."A freakin' murder happen. Rumors said it's Grim's doing." We stopped at the when we reach the end of hall way.Nice.The man was hunged in the ceiling. Fresh blood is streaming down its open abdomen. I used his blood to paint my mark on the wall.Halos masuka ang ibang kababaihan. Vissy was holding her mouth.Hexton pic
=Ash="Yow, we are being summoned by Master Hector." Elijah showed up with his girl. "Mission na naman?" Reklamo ni Carter."Let's go." I stand up and lead the way. Naabutan namin sila Vissy at Haxielle na nagkwekwentuhan.Nagtama ang mga mata namin and we just exchanged glares. I know this is bad, but I am getting suspicious of her.She's way too mysterious than I expected."What's up kids?" Hector happily greeted us. Haxielle rolled her eyes while Carter is clinging silently in her neck. These two...They are closer than I expected."What's our mission today?" I asked Hector whose in a prince outfit and dancing waltz.He made a turn and handed me the information.
I stare at my reflection in the mirror. My brown wig is covering my silver hair. I put my hazel contact lenses. "Room Cleaning." Kumunot ang noo ko sa taong nasa labas. Pinagbuksan ko ito ng pinto at pumasok. Napasimangot ako ng namukhaan ito. He is wearing a mustache with matching grey color on his hair making him look older."Hector, what do you need?" Huminto ito ng marinig nito ang pangalan. Agad itong tumingin sa akin at ngumiti."Halata ba?" He asked at nagpa-ikot sa kwarto ko. I walk towards the bed at humiga doon.Nang matapos ito mangalikot ay humarap na ito sa akin at nagbigay galang."Milady, your father wants to have a word." He reached me a phone and close every curtains."Lo? What do you want, Dad?" Bungad ko dito. I heard him chuckled and the sound of classic
-EPILOGUE-°■Current Location■°Philippine National Airport=-=-=-=7:30 am11 years later... "Asher nasaan ka na ba?!" I fix my shades walking. Napakapit ako sa passport ko dahil baka mahulog. That mission really give my back too much pain. "I'm at the airport kakalabas ko lang." Sagot ko kay Vissy na tumatawag sa akin. I heard someone grab the phone to hers at sumagot. "Oy Asher kapag hindi ka pa namin nakita mauuna na kami doon! Si Jiah nagkukulit na." Paalala n
-Yuki-One month later..."Woah... after a month comeback na ni Asher ito ah." I coldly look at Elijah walking towards me. Vissy beside her poke his sides at sinamaan ng tingin. Someone tap my shoulder at lumingon ako sa kanya. It's Hexton."You good bro?" Tanong nito sa akin. I let out a deep sigh at humarap sa kaniya. Hindi pa sila hihinto? "Yeah, I am." "It's been months isn't it?" He look at me habang naglalakad. The hallway looks normal now... it's better hindi katulad noong nangyari sa unang linggo. "Since she died. It must
-Yuki Asher-Tahimik sila habang naghihintay ako ng sagot. I glanced once again to Haxielle at mariin itong umiling. Napakagat ako ng aking labi sa kakaisip. "Time is running up, iho." He tap the buttons continously halatang naiinip na ito. "I choose... Mr. Hades." Lumaki ang ngiti nito at pinindot ang button na para sa lalagyan ni Sir Hades, pagkatapos ay hinagis niya at at sumabog ang susi. Unti-unting bumukas ang lalagyan nito at nakalabas si Mr. Hades agad niyang sinubukan ilabas ang anak niya ngunit ayaw.
-Haxielle-Sinulyapan ko sila muli sa kani-kanilang pwesto habang ako ay nakatayo sa gitna. Dala-dala ko ang nag-iisa kong katana. Dahan-dahan akong bumaba sa lupa dahil kung susuriin ay maari itong bumigay ng mabilis. "Ervex is on position Nemesis." She communicated. "Can you see the kids? Elijah and Min." Tanong ko habang nakakapit sa putol na sangay at lumundag papunta sa isa. I think I'm rock climbing- but downwards. "I'm still searching for it ngayon maraming bantay akong nakikita at mukhang may ginagawa tauhan nila." Elijah said I can hear him tapping the keyboard
-Haxielle-"Let's fight together." Pag-uulit ko sa aking sinabi. Hinawakan ni Ash ang kamay ko at pinabayaan ko lang. "So... are you guys- may comeback na ganon?" Tanong ni Remi na nanonood sa amin. Binitawan ko ang kamay ni Ash at lumapit sa kanila. "No. There's no comeback- everything will start to zero." Sinulyapan ko si Asher. Alam kong gusto niyang tumanggi doon pero mukhang naiintindihan naman niya. "Did Min send you the location here?" Tanong ko at saktong sumulyap si Min dala-dala ang mga kinakain. "Nope. Wala akong sinend sa kanila." Pagtanggi niya sabay subo ng free
-Haxielle-"Gaano pa tayo kalayo?" Wang asked Min at agad na kinalikot niya ang location. "About 3 kilometers wala pa akong nakikitang radar sa paligid it's still safe." Sagot niya at kumuha ng bubblegum at ngumuya. "Have you sent it to them?" Tanong ko at inayos ang suot ng shades. Tumango naman ito at pinakita ang file na nakasend sa computer ni Elijah.Napahawak kami sa upuan ng biglang umikot ang sasakyan natin. Sinamaan ko ng tingin si Min at tinignan si Wang."Report.""Sorry, Nemesis. May biglang naghagis ng mga pako sa daan." He grab a gun at tinignan ang bintana.Sabay kaming napayuko ng may tumagos na baril doon."I thought you choose a bulletproof car
-Haxielle-I lean my head on the drive wheel. Ilang beses ko itong inuntog habang inaalala ang ginagawa ko. It's been three days- since sinaktan ko sila at iniwan. I regret everything but it doesn't matter anymore. Nagulat ako ng biglang may kumatok salamin at nakita ko doon si Min na nagiintay. Binaba ko ang bintana at sumandal sa kotse. "What?""It's been 20 mins mommy since you park your car here at naandito ako para ticketan ka dahil antagal mo." Pabirong sabi niya sa akin at naglabas ng papel at nagsulat ng kung ano-ano doon kunyare.
-Haxielle-"Why the hell did you do that, Haxielle?!" "Dahil ba iyon ang plano mo?! Then you are so selfish, Axel! Andami mo ng nasasaktan! It's been a week since Asher last wake up. Hindi ka ba naawa?" I continued to keep silent habang sinisigawan ako ni Remi dito halatang dismayado siya sa ginawa ko. "Awa? Kailan pa ako nagkaroon ng awa? And it's your fault kung bakit ka nasasaktan. I always remind you to never love me, never care for me." She let out a breathe at napahawak sa sentido nito. Tumayo ako at aalis na sana sa kwarto ng pinigilan ni Hexton ang kamay ko at hinila papunta sa gilid ng silid. "Then answ
-Haxielle-"Ano na ang gagawin mo, pinsan?"I didn't turn back to look at him at nanatili ang aking titig sa tanawin sa labas. I can see Hexton tapped his shoulder to back him up. "Let her rest kailangan niya pa mag-isip." Sabi ni Hexton kay Carter at naglakad naman palabas ng kwarto ko si Carter. My gaze lowered to the glass of water Asher put beside me. Tumayo siya sa tabi ko habang pinagmamasdan ako na nakatingin doon. "Drink first, Haxielle. You need to make your mind clear first don't pressure yourself." My fingers touch the mouth of glass at ininom iyon.
