CHAPTER 21 - EVERYTHING'S TEMPORARY
BEATRIXIA
"I... I want to curse," I muttered.
"Same," I looked at Dwaynell. "Uh, yeah," I just ignored it.
All of a sudden we thought everything's done between us and the killers, but they're still... here.
I can see more than hundreds of them from a distance.
"There's no way we're going to fight again," One student said behind.
"I'm freakin' tired!" Another one whined.
"We're all tired, but please shut up this time!" Gigil na sabi ni Edward.
I wandered my eyes as the killers walk slowly towards us.
"What a sight for sore eyes," Riann mockingly sang.
My eyes widened a bit when I saw another gate, it's an iron gate, it is rusty.
"C-can I have a magnifying glass, please?" I whispered loudly.
"Who has a magnifying glass?" Tanong ni Edward at nagsunod-sunod na ang pagtatanong ng iba sa bawat-isa.
Agad namang may naibigay na isa kaya kinuha ko na. I placed the magnifying glass on top of the paper and tried to read what's written there.
"Banned... b-baneed fo... forest...?" I read.
"Ha?" Tanong nila.
"Oh, my gosh! Oh, gosh! We have to run, they're not that near," I said.
"Where?!" They panicked.
"There!" I pointed and looked at the left where the gate's located.
"Run towards the left gate!" Dwight shouted.
We ran and as I looked back, I saw the killers also running to reach us, especially to the ones who are in the last row.
Agad akong nagpahuli at nang makita kong malapit na kami sa gate, pumunta ako sa likuran towards the last row.
I gulped when a grade 8 girl's bag is being pulled by a killer. I remember her, she's one of our classmates.
I quickly wandered my eyes and saw a Grade 10 with a bow on his back-pack. I immediately grabbed the bow and grabbed an arrow from my bag, placed it on the bow and set my target.
"Ah! Stop!" The girl exclaimed and groaned with tears.
Papalapit na ang maraming killers bukod sa isa na 'to. Tumingin ako sa kanan ko at nakita na malapit na nilang mabuksan yu'ng lumang gate dahil sa team work nila.
"Leave her alone!" I closed one of my eyes and released the arrow from its bow.
I aimed the target, the killer grunted in pain, holding his hand. He then let go of the girl.
"Run, Cria, run!" I said and we both ran.
"What now?" I asked, "They're getting nearer! Thankfully, they're not fast runners!" I kinda joked.
I heard them cheered and their foot steps became fast. Nang ako na lang ang matira, pumasok ako, napakabigat pala ng gate na 'to!
With my heart beating hard like it's getting out from my chest, I breathed heavily while watching them getting near us.
Nang maisara ko, o namin, ang isang bahagi ng gate, may isang kamay ng isang killer ang naipit.
I swallowed hard.
