BLACK LOTUS

32: SWORDS

~AZKHIRA~

Matapos kong mag ensayo ay bigla akong tinawag ni kuya Illumi. Kaya agad naman akong pumunta sa training ground kung saan ang mga tinuturuan nila...

"Buti at dumating ka.." saad ni kuya Illumi saka ako niyakap. After one week ay saka lamang nila ako napansin. But I don't blame them dahil masyado silang busy tapos meron pa silang tinuturuan, nagtatampo lang ako dahil hindi manlang nila ako pinapansin.

"What do you want?" I said seriously, ngumiti lang ito at inakbayan ako saka pinaharap sa kanila.

"Okay everyone listen up... She'll be teaching you how to use swords...she's professional when it comes to handling different swords" pagmamalaki ni Kuya Illumi kaya siniko ko ito sa tagiliran niya. And there's no way that I'm going to teach these four, may training pa ako. At isa pa tinawag niya ako just for these tss...

"Bakit hindi nalang sila kuya Efren at ate Brent" Suhestiyon ko..

"We have an emergency meeting kaya ikaw muna ang aasikaso sa kanila.."

"Why not the butlers or other person who's good at swords" I raised my one eyebrow pero busy rin daw sila at kasama sila sa mga nagbabantay kaya wala silang matawag na iba kundi ako tsk...

Then with a little argue they left me with these guys who is all bruised up.. tsk masyado yata nilang pinahirapan but that's good para naman mabilis silang matuto..

"Let's start" I said and throw them the sword one by one including Shiro.

But before we start I need to see their ways in using swords..

"Attack me.." I uttered, which made them furrowed.

"Come on I don't have to say it tw--" hindi ko natapos ang sasabihin ko nang biglang umatake si Shiro, ngunit nasangga ko naman iyon agad..

"If that's what you like then I'll be happy for it" seryosong sabi niya kaya ngumisi ako.

I slide my sword down at tinamaan ko ang tiyan niya gamit ang pinaka dulo ng handle kaya napaatras ito. Umatake naman ang tatlo sa akin.

But I was disappointed... They are not good at holding swords, kapag umaatake ako ay nabibitawan nila ang katana. Nagtamo rin sila ng kaunting sugat, ngunit hindi naman iyon malalim...

"You have to hold the katana tighter! Or else you'll be the first to be killed" nakaka istress dahil kanina ko pa sila pinagsasabihan..

"STOP!!" I shouted which made them stop

"Ang sabi ko hawakan niyo ng maayos ang handle bakit hindi kayo nakikinig I keep on telling you guys but you're always letting it go kung patuloy kayong ganyan mamatay kayo akala ko ba sinabi na ni Kuya Illumi, ugh.. this is frustrating!!!" padabog kong binitawan ang katana ko. Halata naman sa mukha nila ang gulat, when I realize what I said.

Napa face palm nalang ako, I never talk like this before, I spoke too much word..

"Ahem... I'm sorry master Az the reason we couldn't handle the sword is that our hands have been training for almost 13 staright hours" I furrowed at Shiro. What!?Dam* you brothers! They exceeded the time of training and it must only be 7-8 hours..

"Shiro you know the rules when it comes to training" I glared at him

"We insisted" saad ni Nerd.. andami na ring pasa sa katawan nila at halatang nanghihina..

*Deep sigh*

"Okay then...that's enough for today, go straighly to   the Clinic and have all your wounds be treated" I said before leaving them..

Ugh.. I need a break.

*****

Pagkarating ko ay tinanggal ko lahat ng damit ko at lumusong sa hot spring...

"This is so good" I mumbled and close my eyes for a while.. the hot springs at the paradise garden is my favorite. And a secret place where I am the only one goes here at the middle of the night...

"Seems like your enjoying yourself too huh?" I turned around..

"Ate Ella!" I blurted and hug her tight...

"It's been a decade" I said smiling. She's Ella Harakuchi,my cousin at anak ni Tito Clint..

"Yeah.. and I need to take a break that's why I went here" I forgot, she also goes here. She's the one who lead me this beautiful place.

Nagkwentuhan lang kami until we decided to go back.

"Ella!" They shouted in unison as we enter the mansion, they hurriedly hug her..

"Wait... Wait! Ugh.... I can't breathe!" She shouted and starts to push them all away from her. She really doesn't like clingy person.

"Dam* you all... One at a time you stupids are you going to kill me from suffocation" she blurted which made us all laugh....ang arte...

"How are you?"

"When did you come?"

"I missed you"

Sari saring tanong ng mga pinsan at kaibigan namin kaya naman halata sa mukha neto ang pagka irita pero sinagot niya rin naman...

"Sooo.... They're the new recruit?" She asked while looking at the four guys na nakaupo sa sofa at mukhang hindi pa nagagamot ang sugat nila..

"Yeah... Why didn't you call me so that I could fetch you at the airport" singit naman ni kiya Milluki

"No thanks kuya" saad ni Ate Ella, si kuya Milluki ang nakakatanda sa lahat kaya naman minsan sa kaniya nakaasa lahat. Nagpatuloy lang sila sa pagk-kwentuhan hanggang sa kinausap ako ni kuya Illumi na gamutin ang sugat ni Nerd... Tsk.
