Royal Synergy: Curse of the Queen

Curse Twenty: Catch the Mouse

I immediately re-opened my Lenses and gripped her shoulder to face me. Seryosong seryoso ko siyang tiningnan ng malalim. "Paano mo nalaman na mangyayari ito?" I asked her with my serious tone. I can't help but grit my teeth as well.

Nanlaki ang mga mata nitong nakatingin sa aking mga mata ngayon. Tila nagulat sa pagtingin ko sa kanya ng diretso sa mga mata nito.

"Y-Your eyes." Ramdam ko ang takot sa boses nito at mabilis akong napapikit ng mariin nang ma-realized ko kung bakit.

Hindi ang Lenses ang gumana sa mata ko. It's my curse. I tried to hide it but I just can't... and I don't know why.

Muli ko siyang tiningnan nang hindi ko talaga magawang itago ito. Maybe kailangan ko rin itong gamitin ngayong gabi.

"Answer my question." Sorry, Archilliah. I need an honest answer.

Her face went blank. Ang takot sa mukha nito'y biglang nawala. Ang mga kamay nito'y biglang dumapo sa magkabila kong balikat. I was shocked from what she did and her eyes turned white.

"I saw it in my dreams. You... in your room. Someone will sneak-in holding a Katana. His face was covered by something black and he has plans of killing you. But you'll fight back. You'll stab him using a fork, leaving blood stains on the floor. I've also seen you and a man holding by someone on your necks. They're gripping your life, consuming something inside that would make him suffice. Tattoos are visibly showing under the full moon; a stone above would cause death to one of you."

Napabitaw ako sa kanya when a vision of her dreams enshrouded and visualized on my mind. Parehas kaming napahingal at kinakapos ng hininga. Palahaw ko siyang tiningnan nang makita ko itong nawalan ng malay.

Napatingin ako bigla sa aking mga kamay. Nanginginig ang aking pakiramdam, nanginginig ang dapat manginig sa akin. Kumakabog ng malakas ang aking dibdib. Napapalunok ako ng sunud-sunod sa t'wing naalala ko ang mga sinabi ni Archilliah.

Her dreams... are true. Even the vision that I've seen when I held Supremo's hand. I felt like it was really real. No... it will be real soon.

Napatingin ako sa langit habang nanginginig pa rin ang aking pakiramdam. Something will happen and it's really bad. Something bad that would cause my life or Alastair's life as the sacrifice.

Sunod kong tiningnan si Archilliah. Ang batang ito. She can see what will happen. She can see the future. Hindi ko alam kung paano siya nagkaroon ng ganoon pero I need to check on her. I need to restrain her of telling someone about her strength.

I decided to connect myself with Austin and Claude.

"Premiere? Fuck! At last! I thought something happened to you!" Boses ni Austin ang una kong narinig.

"Girl! Tangina ka, pinag-alala mo ako. I was about to go there in your room. Buti nalang kumonek ka na." Wika naman ni Claude.

"Guys, may idadagdag ako sa mga gagawin niyo." Una kong nawika sa kanila. I don't know where did I get the courage to talk when I think my whole body is shaking. "And this is Top Prio."

"What is that?" They both asked.

"I need the complete list of the students of Vexigo."

"But you have it already. Since Day 1." Anas ni Claude.

"I know. Pero may gusto akong ipadagdag sa listahan nila."

"Ano iyon?" Austin asked.

"Alamin niyo kung sinu-sino sa kanila ang mga na-exposed sa Apollo."

They both gasped from my request. Halatang hindi makapaniwala.

"What are you talking about, Asia? Is this something connected with the man who can penetrate pain using his mental mind?" Claude ridiculously asked.
