Themis Corporation: Pandora 1 (Will Under Revision)

THE DAY OF CHRISTMAS I

The Day of Christmas I

PRAIREI

Please take care of Psyche's vein, Miss Riviel.

Everything happened in Solast was still fresh in my mind even Cyph's words in the forest that made me and Mintaro wonder because we both know that we have no idea about what he's saying. Mintaro's eyes are just directly looking at Cyph because of shock. I asked him about Psyche's vein but he didn't answer. He just turned his back and walked away while the blood of victim he slaughtered dropping down, staining the grasses and unknown type of plants. The lust of killing devoured him.

In Solast, we found out that we stayed there for almost two weeks already. Wayn seemed shock and he screamed because he probably thought that we missed the Christmas day. When we all arrived in Themis house, the Themis house have been closed only few hours. Wayn smiled in relief and he passed out same as Mintaro. Wayn and Rhya entered in different game and it was seemed like Wayn was the one who fought someone there inside the game. Rhya kept saying sorry to him when he woke up from faintness. Mintaro's condition now is fine. We let him rest in Themis hospital for good. Mintaro is unconscious inside the private room of Themis hospital and Themis' doctor gave him a temporary treatment for his third eye.

I'm still worried about him untill now. Mintaro saved me twice already—well, thrice. He saved us from death even it can cost of his life. So, whatever Riyota and Iruma or even his family blabbering about him, it's all nonsense and not true. Lahat ng sinabi nila sa kanila ay kabaligtaran dahil kung tutuusin, lahat ng tao ay may pare-parehang katapangan ngunit sa ibang pamamaraan ng pagpapakita ng katapangan.

We planned to visit him later in Themis hospital to check his condition because Themis doctor called us. The doctor called Riyota's personal mobile number because he's his brother. When he told to Riyota his condition, he shouted,

“Bring my dumbass brother here alive! I will take your heart out if you touch—hey, ouch!”

Mukhang sa parteng iyon na kaniyang isinigaw ay nag-aalala pa rin siya sa kapatid niya. Rhya smiled at him because of his harsh care for Mintaro but we can see his improvement. Riyota and Hidre did it alive but they've got bruises and scratches. Wayn's straight wound left a small scar. It is because of their fight inside the Solast. Si Wayn...naprotektahan niya si Rhya ng mabuti. Walang kahit anong sugat si Rhya pero si Wayn mayroon. Wayn did all of his best to protect her.

Hidre remained his stare at me for whole five minutes. I don't know why but he's staring at the side of my face and to my left shoulder. Yes, I got straight cuts too because of Deimos' elemental sword. I remained shut. Well, I don't think I can explain everything. Cyph's words marked in my mind—he left us clueless.

"Damn it, if he just didn't use his ability, dumbass—!” Napatigil agad siya nang makatanggap siya ng kakaibang tingin galing kay Hidre. Napa-iwas agad siya ng tingin habang nakakunot ang noo. Si Hidre ay sobrang tahimik na talo pa ang walang dila dahil kahit siya ay hindi nagkukuwento sa totoong nangyari sa Solast.

Maybe, something happened also.

But I wonder, does Cyph visit him in Solast too, or it's just coincidence? Ano man ang purpose niya kung bakit siya pumunta roon, siguro dapat ay ipasawalang-bahala ko na lamang iyon. Christmas day pa naman ngayon. Si Rhya at Wayn ngayon ay masayang nag-uusap at inaayos na ang Christmas tree.

Hawak ko naman ang Christmas lanterns at Christmas lights na inaayos sa paligid ng pader at hagdanan habang patuloy na iniisip ang sinabi ni Cyph sa akin. It's the first time I saw him like that. His expression isn't playful like I'm always an enemy to his eyes unlike Kierra.
