DEVIL'S CRY

08 - DATE

WINTER

AS I ENTERED our classroom, my eyes widened when I saw nobody, not even a single person! What the? Was the class suspended without them informing me? They should have announced it if that's the case! Kahit naman late na ako ng isang oras, sayang pa rin 'yung effort ko, I could have been sleeping by now!

After Blanc left without saying any words, I immediately called Brent, I remembered him being shot last night and he said he's still in the hospital, nagpapagamot pa daw s'ya. Kahit papano ay nako-konsensya ako, I know I am one of the reasons why he got shot. Though, hindi n'ya sinabi kung ano ang ginagawa n'ya doon.

"Winter," agad akong napatingin sa likod ko, it was Axcel. "Winter, kailangan mong pumunta sa gym."

My eyebrows met, forming a v-line, "Why?"

"You need to go to the gym right now." he said and pulled me towards the gym. Sinubukan kong bawiin ang kamay ko pero hinarap n'ya ako, "Blanc is about to murder Blaise."

"W-what?" if I was the old me, or should I say the 2 days ago me, I would have taken this chance to ask Axcel about my past, but I'm not. Binawi ko 'yung kamay ko sa kanya at nagmamadaling tumakbo papunta sa gym. Medyo malayo pa s'ya but I need to stop him from doing evil things.

As soon as I entered the gym, I realized that almost all students were there, watching how Blanc slowly kill Blaise. I immediately ran towards the court, hindi pumapalag si Blaise sa ginagawa ni Blanc, tumatawa pa s'ya ng parang ewan. Ugh, para talaga siyang baliw.

Axcel was right, Blaise is almost dead. Blanc was continuously throwing at Blaise. His face is covered with blood.

Blanc's eyes was full of anger, he's in rage. His eyes are on fire and he looks like a monster who just got out from his cage. It was a relief that he wasn't hurt anywhere, and even if I'm mad at him, I won't let him do this.

I was thinking of the best idea to stop him pero wala, as in wala. Wala akong maisip na kahit ano, maliban sa isa. But that thing is too dangerous! Baka ako pa ang mapagbuntungan ng galit! Pero hindi, I need to do this. 

Naglakad ako papunta sa unahan, ignoring the people watching. Marami pa ang mga nagche-cheer and some were even betting. No'ng makarating ako sa unahan ay hindi na ako nagdalawang isip na yakapin si Blanc. Yes, I hugged him real tight, just like what I did when we were at the Underground.

Oh shit, I'm gonna kiss myself for hugging this devil, again!

Gasps and whisperings filled the gym. A lot of students were glaring at me, some were even sending me dagger stares, but it's least of my concerns now! I need to stop this shit.

"Get off me." matigas n'yang sabi. Patuloy pa rin s'ya sa pagsuntok kay Blaise kahit na nakayakap ako sa likod n'ya. "I said get off me!"

"B-Blanc... Stop." I said while stuttering.

He stopped with his whole body shaking in anger. As much as I wanted Blaise to suffer from what he did to me and Brent last night, I don't want to see Blanc being a monster.

"Blanc, he's not worth it." I said with my husky voice. I hope my words will work. "You're more than this. He's not worth it." pagu-ulit ko. Bigla n'ya akong tinulak, but it was gentle. Hinihingal s'yang tumayo ng diretso.

He scanned the whole area, I guess ngayon n'ya lang nalaman na marami na ang nanonood sa kanya. And by marami, I really mean it. There were tons of students watching us. I really doubt that this is a normal school. Halos walang pakialam 'yung teachers! Parang hindi na bago sa students ang ganitong scenario!

"Lahat kayo, leave this place immediately!" he screamed at the top of his lungs. And in just a blink of an eye, all students inside the gym were all gone.
