"Teleportation crystals?" 

Gulat akong napatingin kay Than na walang-pasabing pumasok sa kwarto ko.

Agad-agad kong inayos ang pagkakahiga ko dito sa kama habang nagbabasa ng libro.

Shems. Ano kayang itsura ko?

"Sorry. Jack said he already informed you I'm coming and that I shouldn't knock anymore," he said and looked away.

Bwiset na Jack! Gumaganti ba 'to sa akin kasi hindi siya nanalo kay Arri?

Napatingin naman ako sa sarili ko and realized na wala akong suot na bra sa ilalim. I automatically fished my throw pillow at itinakip 'to sa white shirt ko. 

Oh my gods! Bakat ba? Ang puri at diwa ko, wala na. Chos.

"Aalis nalang ako," he said and was about to turn around nang pigilan ko siya.

"Okay lang!" I beamed. He raised his brow at my reaction kaya alanganing nginitian ko nalang siya. 

I averted my gaze from him at tinignan ang hawak niyang dalawang teleportation crystals.

Back at the Labyrinth, Dion said that the both of us will be receiving teleportation crystals as prizes for winning. 'Di ko lang sure kung paano ito gamitin.

"As I've said, nadeliver na 'yung teleportation crystals natin. We can teleport anywhere we want with this," he informed me habang nakatayo.

He stepped forward and handed me the crystal na kasinlaki ng palad ko. It's a rectangular-shaped solid with different carvings sa gilid.

"Anywhere? So pati sa mortal realm?" I asked, excited.

"Yeah. But we can use it to three times only. The crystal is still in a beta mode and we were the first ones to try it out."

Ang galing ni Pyr. Bilib talaga ako sa kanya.

Napatingin naman ako sa hawak kong crystal and tried to think na kapag gagamitin ko 'to, it should be in a critical situation kasi sayang naman kung para lang sa mga walang kwentang bagay.

This crystal should be saved. Like...going to concerts sa mga favorite kong boy bands. Hihi.

"The catch is, you can only teleport to places you have gone to." Or not. 

Sayang naman! Ang galing na sana ng plano ko.

"Paano ba 'to gamitin?" I asked and examined it. I placed the pillow I hugged in my lap at tinignan ito nang mabuti.

He looked away and uttered something. "Just place the crystal in your open palm and visualize the place where you want to go."

A few days passed in the academy. Panay aral at training lang kami and I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm already getting a hang of it. Also, I already experienced having dual trainings against Senpai Oceane at totoo ngang napakalakas niya especially when it comes to weapons.

"I thought we'll help in the investigation of Louie po?" rinig kong tanong ni Sofie kay Arri.

I just woke up after an afternoon nap since weekend naman ngayon kaya nagulat ako nang makitang bihis na bihis sila Arri at Sofie sa living room at parang galing sa lakad.
