THIRD PERSON'S

Even though Alexandra already has some findings and ideas regarding on what's the curse all about, she decided not to tell it to anybody yet.

All the information that she gathered are still processing on her head. Parang ang hirap ipasok lahat ng kanyang nalaman at natuklasan sa kanyang utak, at imbes na masagot nito ang mga tanong na nasa kanyang isipan, parang mas lalo pa itong nadagdagan.

Nilabas niya yung mga nakuha niyang mga lumang news reports sa kanyang bulsa, at tinignan ito muli ng maigi. Ano bang kinalaman nito sa mga nangyayari sa amin ngayon?

Missing person.

A Massive Fire Accident.

"Those specific events just doesn't make any sense, or baka sadyang bobo lang ako at di ko lang talaga ito maintindihan. Oo, alam ko yung tungkol sa missing person, but I don't know what's the connection of the fire accident regarding this." sabi ni Alexandra sa kanyang isipan.

Besides from the fact that it happened in just one place, and it happened in the same month and year, there nothing more about it.

Maybe, may kasabwatan na nangyari sa mga mamamayan ng Lordaile.

Or maybe there's one person who is responsible for both said events.

That is possible.

Napasabunot si Alex sa kanyang buhok, at siya'y litong-lito na sa lahat ng natutuklasan niya. Napansin naman agad ni Kiel ang mga kakaibang kilos ni Alex, kaya nama'y lumapit siya dito.

"What's the matter, Lex?" nagtatakang tanong niya kay Alex, ngunit napukaw ang kanyang atensyon sa mga lumang news articles na nasa harapan ng babae. Tinignan niya ito ng maayos, and one face reminded him of something, or should I say..... someone.

"The girl in the first video..... it's her." biglaang sambit ni Alex, at narinig ito ng iba pa niyang mga kasamahan at tumungo sila papalapit sa kanya.

"The missing case, then the fire accident. It all happened in the same place, and also in the same month and year. The missing case was just a bit earlier than the other one, I guess." she explain it further for us to understand.

"Ba't ngayon mo lang pinaalam ito sa amin?" may halos inis na sambit ni Dom. Liningon rin siya ni Alex sa kanya at nagsukatan sila ng tingin. "I'm just trying to process everything, making sure that it is useful." ganti ni Alex sa tanong ni Dom.

Kiel analyze the two found news articles. "The girl was missing before the fire, which is the princess of Lordaile. This person is the girl in the video." and they all tried to recall what they had seen in the first video they watched.

The tall man.

The man with white blooded coat and trousers.

The man with the white mask.

The man with the knife in his large hands.

"That killer killed the princess, he's the one who abducted her." sambit ni Alex na sumira sa katahimikang nagaganap. "We don't know the reason, so I think kailangan nating malaman iyon." dagdag niya pa sa sinabi niya.

All of them finally discover some information and truths regarding the curse, but they still need more information. They should dig further about this curse. More information means more possibility to exit this curse.

ALEXANDRA'S

Nagpatuloy pa rin kami sa paghahanap ng mga impormasyon sa mismong chest na natagpuan namin. All of these old articles seems to be all about the kingdom of Lordaile, which is kind of confusing. It is all placed inside this chest, like someone kept it from everyone to find. Ano kaya ang dahilan kung bakit tinatago nila ito?

Kanina habang kami'y naghahanap, may dumagdag na rin dun sa folder na "11:39" na isang file. The past two files were videos but this time, it is just a photo named as "(3)".

Dylan's dead body, which is beside of Vivienne's body. They're both slaughtered but...

they're holding hands.

Napahagulgol yung iba sa nakita, but I didn't. Bakit naman ako iiyak, when I know that is what Dylan wants— he wants to be with Vivienne which is the woman he truly loves. I will just do my best now para na rin mabigyan ng hustisya ang pagkamatay nung tatlo naming kaibigan, at para na rin malabas at matigil na ang kahibangang ito.

"May nahanap na ba kayo guys?" tanong ni Rebecca sa amin. Tinignan ko ang iba, at bakas sa kanilang mukha ang pagod at pagkadismaya. Mukhang wala rin silang nahanap pang ibang impormasyon na makapagpakinabangan.

Saan ba kami pwedeng humingi ng mga impormasyon tungkol sa mga krimeng naganap?

"Maybe we can find some answers online." narinig kong suggestion ni Sebastian. Mukha ngang tama siya, everything can be found through online websites and social media. Bukod sa napakadali nitong gamitin, maaaring mas mabilis pa naming makalap ang mga datos at impormasyon na nais naming malaman.

"May malapit na computer shop jan sa labas ng school, we can search there." sambit naman ni Dominic sa amin. Ibang klase talaga ang kaalaman ng mga estudyanteng kadalasang mag-cutting. Alam na alam kung anong meron sa labas ng school.

We should definitely go there now.

"Punyeta! Di pa ba kayo uuwi? Isasara ko na etong computer shop, umuwi na kayo sa mga bahay niyo mga gunggong!" inis na sambit mismo ng tagabantay nitong computer shop kung nasaan kami ngayon.

Kanina pa kasi kami nandito, ngunit medyo nahihirapan pa rin kaming makahanap ng mga datos at impormasyon tungkol sa kaharian ng Lordaile. Aalamin sana namin kung ano ang mga criminal records na mayroon ang Helsinki, Finland noong taon ng 1933. But it just turn out a disappointment. The only record found there was the missing case and the fire accident.

Nothing more and nothing less.

It's just the two crime events that we found in that chest, wala ng iba. At yung nakalap namin na iyon ay mas lalo pang nagpagulo sa aming mga isipan.

Bakit kaunti lang ang impormasyong nakakalap namin tungkol sa lugar na'to? Why is it hard for us to gather information about this kingdom?

Lordaile Kingdom is such a mysterious place, I swear.
