Just like what he said, I followed him. Gusto kong magtanong pero natatakot ako na baka biglang uminit ang ulo niya at biglang iputok sakin ang hawak niya, pero kailangan ko hanapin si Nico.
"S-Saan tayo pupunta? Hahanapin ko ang k-kaibigan ko."
"Hindi mo alam kung ano 'tong pinasok mo." bulong nito pero narinig ko.
"W-What do you mean?"
"You didn't understand this whole game, don't you?" Sarkastiko nitong saad.
"This game, ano ba talaga 'to. B-Bakit may ganito?"
"This game, the whole thing, it's insane." he said, almost frustrated.
"Makita ko lang ang kaibigan ko, titigilan ko na 'to." determinado kong saad.
"Too bad, you can't just stop."
"W-Why?" bigla akong kinabahan sa sinabi niya.
"Once you install the app, and you agreed to their terms and conditions, your whole being was already sold to them. You can't just quit, they can hunt you anywhere, they simply know everything about you.." Hindi ko alam kung gaano akong kinilabutan sa sinabi niya.
Kaya ba tinanong ako ni Mystic about the terms and conditions? Anong nakasulat doon?
They can hunt me... Marami sila?
Paano ba nabuo ang game na 'to? why would they hunt me if I quit? Fuck. Ang dami kong tanong!
"T-That's insane. Bakit hindi pwedeng umatras! And these powers, p-paanong may ganito?" I said as I looked into my hand.
"You'll know everything, in time. For now, let's just finish our task." He knows my task, too.
How.
Biglang nagbalik sa alaala kong kung bakit ako nandito. Isang babae ang naabutan naming tahimik na natutulog pero nakagapos ang kanyang mga kamay.
"Nicole!" Mabilis ko siyang dinaluhan ng makita siya.
Ilang beses ko pa siyang niyugyog pero hindi siya gumagalaw.
"She's still unconscious, let's get her out of here, bago pa may makakita sa't--
"Too late, I'm already here." pareho kaming napatingin sa babaeng nag salita.
She's wearing a school uniform from a university near to ours.
"What a handsome face, too bad, you're my mission. Maybe we can go out some other time." She said seductively as she went near Kairo.
Nakita ko kung paanong nagkuyom ang kamao niya, alam kong nagtitimpi lang siya and anytime, he can punch this girl to death.
That's how ruthless he is.
That's what I heard, na pati babae pinapatulan niya. They said, Kairo makes every girl scream their hearts out, and he can make them beg for their lives.
Kaya binalaan ako ni Mystic na 'wag lalapit sa kanya. Delikado daw, baka makuha din ang kayamanan ko, though I don't have one, nasa tita ko lahat.
Nag balik ako sa realidad ng makita ko ang babae na naglabas ng chain blade.
Pareho kami.
"I'll handle this, get her out of this place, please.." Hindi ako sigurado kung tutulungan niya ako pero desperada na ako. Hindi ko alam kung saan ako humugot ng lakas pero tanging naiisip ko lang ngayon ay iligtas ang kaibigan ko.
Isang sulyap ang ibinigay niya sa'kin bago niya ilapag muli si Nicole sa kaninang hinihigaan. Nanlaki ang mga mata ko ng sa isang iglap ay napalibutan ito ng apoy.
"We'll get out of here together, don't worry, I did that to protect her." He said, pertaining to the fire he just made.
And for the first time, I felt secured in this dangerous game, with this dangerous man. It feels safe, with him beside me.
He once again, raise his hand when the girl tried to hit him with her weapon.
Isang putok ng baril ay nabitawan na ng babae ang weapon niya.
Damn! He's a sharp shooter too! At hindi normal na bala ang lumabas dito, it was again, surrounded by fire.
Hanggang ngayon hindi pa din ako makapaniwala, totoong may kapangyarihan. Hindi lang ito sa game nag eexist.
"Y-You're a..
"Element manipulator."
