"It's not you who they are after. It's me.." Pag-amin ko sa kanya. 

Parang hindi makapaniwala si Rebel sa mga sinabi ko at kumunot na lang yung noo niya. Well, duh! Ever since I was assigned to be his protector, I knew that my life would be in danger. 

Pero hinanda ko na ang sarili ko tungkol sa bagay na ito. 

Huminga siya ng malalim and he just looked at me in disbelief, "And why are you telling me this, now?"

"It's because you keep on testing me! Literally, you're playing with me, Son of Apolaki. What? Do you expect me to be some damsel in distress who would look for her prince charming? Lalaban ako because I know I'm strong!"

Pinailaw ko yung kamay ko and I shot those ugly looking corrupted souls with my light. Using my light abilities, I can induce temporary or permanent blindness in other beings and greatly hinder opponents by taking away one of their most important sensory abilities.

And if he still intended to test me...

Fine by me.

I'll show you na hindi mo ako dapat minamaliit.

I don't know who send them, pero isa lang ang nasisiguro ko. They are definitely targeting Rebel. Because he is a son of a God of War and Sun. At yun ang kailangan kong malaman. Kung sino ang gumagawa nito at bakit niya kailangan atakihin si Rebel.

Damay na rin ako dito so that means may karapatan na akong mangialam.

I'm not gonna sit here and do nothing because I turned one of the targets now, am I?

"I have my reasons...malalaman mo din kung bakit ko kailangan gawin ang lahat ng ito." Humarap si Rebel and he eyed me, para bang may gusto siyang malaman sa'kin and I couldn't tell what is it.

I feel like he knew something.

And..that makes him dangerous.

"Tell me one thing, how can we eliminate those corrupted souls kung parami lang sila ng parami? You're Apolaki's son, right? Sigurado akong may alam ka because after all you are the original target."Seryosong sinabi ko sa kanya.

"Tell me what time it is now." Rebel ordered me. 

"Ha!?"

"Just tell me!" Sigaw niya. 

"11:30 pm," I told him. 

"Before the clock start ticking in 12am, mas magiging delikado pa sila. So we need to eliminate them as soon as possible. For now, let's run."Sabi ni Rebel at agad niya hinila yung kamay ko and then he quickly lift me up at inilagay niya ako sa likod niya.
