Ganther Uries Neric Asuncion's Point of View
Did you ever feel trapped in your dreams? Have you ever experienced being aware that you are seeing is your dream?
I found myself in a very familiar room. Ang silid na hindi ko makakalimutan. Kahit anong pilit kong ibaon sa limot.
"M-mom, d-dad..." Hindi ko maiwasang mapangisi ng marinig ang maliit na tinig mula sa likuran ko. The little voice filled with sadness and plead.
"S-stop fighting p-please..." I slowly turned my head to the person who's begging. A little kid hugging his knees. His tears are falling. I chuckled seeing my younger version gives me a shame feeling. The little kid moves his head up. My eyes met his. I smirk while looking at him.
"Stop crying, little bean, hindi ka nila papakinggan. Your tears are noth
Onyx Ollivander Faiz Leighton's Point of View I grip my dagger tightly. I can hear my own heartbeat. Mag-isa lang ako sa tagong parte ng university. It's the 4th day of this f*cking game. I opened my earpiece to contact others. "Guys," I whispered. I can hear their breath. "Boss, negative. Walang akong nakikitang kakaiba sa part ng university na'to." One of my men said. "Onyx, are you really sure na may hideout sila sa sarili na'ting teritoryo?" It's Orion. We are looking in different spots of the university to look for their hideout. I took a deep sigh. Bago pa ako magsalita. Napamura ako ng maramdaman ko ang pagbaon na matulis na bagay sa tagiliran ko. Damn! I let myself unguard. I hissed in pain but I immediately face my attacker. Nanlilisik ang mga mata nito sa'kin. "F*ck you, Onyx, and your twin because of the two of you, we are trapped inside of this f*cking game." I just look at him with boredom. Hindi
Ganther Uries Neric Asuncion's Point of view I'm silently walking towards our building. Tatlong linggo na ang lumipas after Onyx knocked on my door wounded. Nakatulog pagkatapos kong gamutin ang sugat n'ya paggising ko umalis na s'ya. He left a note saying that treating his wound doesn't mean I'm already paid him for saving me. May utang pa daw ako sa kanya na favor. Napailing nalang ako ng maisip 'yon. In three weeks half of the population of the university died. Mas naging madugo ang bawat gabing lumipas. "Ganther," I stop from walking when I heard Kit's voice behind me. Humarap ako sa kanya. Matagal din kaming hindi nag-usap. Kasama n'ya si Slade. Sinenyasan n'ya si Slade na iwan kami. "Can I talk to you?" I smile at him and look at my wristwatch. I'm about to go out to my class. "Sure, Kit." He walks first. I followed him. Nakarating kami sa isang tagong sulok. He heaved a sigh before speaking. "Ganther,
Onyx Ollivander Faiz Leighton's Point of View"Ayos kana ba?" His voice sounds sweet to me. Hindi ako sumagot. I just stay my head leaning on his shoulder. Para akong pagod na pagod. But being with this person I feel so relaxed and energize. This person beside me made me feel that I am just still a young boy who needs care. Suddenly Misha's face appeared in my mind. But this time I feel nothing for her. I just took a sigh and let the silence engulf us."Ganther..." I called him. When I decided to break the silence. I can feel him looking at me but I didn't look back at him. I'm scared that I might not able to get up anymore because I fall deeper."Hmmm..." Just a simple response from him has a huge impact on me."What did you do?" Gusto kong matawa sa tinanong ko. I can imagine him frowning now."What do you mean? Onyx? What did I do? In what?" I just shrug. Iniba ko ang tanong ko."Ganther, tell me. Are you on my side
Ganther Uries Neric Asuncion's Point of ViewI woke up because of the blinding ray of sunlight through my window. Mabilis akong bumangon ng makita ang oras. I'm late. I took a bath right away and wore my uniform. I grab my bag and open my door but my forehead knotted seeing Onyx in front of my door. He's smiling."Good morning, Ga-" He didn't finish his sentence when his eyes landed on my neck. I immediately covered my wound. His eyes darkened. He looks angry right now."What happened to you? Why do you have a wound in your neck?" His voice was calm but it sounds dangerous to me."T-this is nothing, Onyx I'm just clumsy enough to slip and-" Tumigil ako sa pagsasalita ng makitang lalong dumilim ang mga mata n'ya. Without a word, he holds my wrist and drags me back into my dorm. He slams the door shut. And put me to my bed. He turns his back to me and looks for something."Onyx, I-""Don't talk ju
"He who spit promises but turn into poison..."Ganther Uries Neric Asuncion's Point of View"Keep quiet." He whispered at me. We are not walking in the dark corridors of the library. Maingat ang mga galaw namin. Hindi ko maiwasang tumingin sa patalim na hawak ni Onyx tumutulo pa ang sariwang dugo dito. Evil's hour and we are looking to the secret passage."There it is." Onyx pointed a bookshelf in front of us. It looks normal bookshelf at all. He sighed."If I didn't lose the key I'm sure I'll drag you out of this hell." Malungkot itong ngumiti sa'kin. I just shrug at him."Just be patient makakalabas din tayo dito, Onyx. This game will end too." I give him a reassuring smile. Bago pa ulit ako magsalita he pushed me away and I heard someone's groaned in pain. Napatingin ako kay Onyx wala na ang dagger na hawak n'ya nakatarak na ito sa noo ng taong nasa likuran ko."Let's go they'll attack us any mo
'We are diamonds and we are shining...'Ganther Uries Neric Asuncion's Point of View"What do you want?" He asked while looking at me. Lumapit ako sa kanya. I saw how he swallowed hard. I stop in front of me. Para s'yang nanigas sa kinatatayuan n'ya. Kinuha ko sa bulsa ko ang knight piece and placed it to his palm. The piece that represents him."W-what this is, Ganther?" Naguguluhan n'ya akong tinignan. I just give him a grin."Hold your own piece." I casually said. "You are now out in my grasp. I'll let you decide your own side. Where piece board-""WE ARE NOT F*CKING CHESS PIECES, ASSH*LE!!!!!" He yelled at me. Kita ko ang pag-angat ng galit sa mga mukha n'ya. I scoffed."You're not? Then why are you moving accord in them." Hindi na ako nagulat ng higitin n'ya ang collar ko."Ganther, you don't know what story behind all of us. Those toys that you are referring are human. They have
Ganther Uries Neric Asuncion's Point of ViewI'm playing chess alone when the door opened. I heard him gasped. I turned my head in his direction. Inayos n'ya ang salamin n'ya. May bakas ng dugo ang damit n'ya. He's holding a trench knife. Bakas dito ang matuyong dugo."G-ganther? What are you doing here in my room?" Ibinalik ko ang tingin ko sa chess na nilalaro ko. I moved the pawn before talking."Sit, play with me," I said. I moved the other piece and declared. "Checkmate." Kit sat in front of me. Inumpisahan kong ayusin ang mga pieces para mag simula ulit kami."Are you playing alone?" I nod."H-how did you win over yourself?" He starts to move his piece, so I am."Why are you playing alone? It's that possible to win?" He added."Yes, playing alone makes me see how my opponent moved against me." Kita kong naguluhan 'to. "Playing alone made me see how my enemy will act
(A/N: Time, nung nalaman ni Onyx na si Orion ang kalaban n'ya.)Onyx Ollivander Faiz Leighton's Point of View"Your twin... Orion is your real enemy, Onyx..."My mind went blank as I heard that. I looked at Tyren a look telling him to stop lying but he shook his head. Para akong nawalan ng balanse. My tears streamed down. Hindi kayang tanggpin ng sistema ko ang nalaman ko. I'm angry at Orion. I'm blaming him for losing our mom. But I never thought we'll end up like this. Karma ko ba 'to? I'm a bad person but I didn't deserve it right. Ths pain is too severe for me."O-onxy..." I grab his collar."T-tyren tell me you just lying. Or I just misheard it. No. Not my twin. We might hate each other we care too. Right? A-ako dapat yung galit bakit s'ya yung parang nag-tanim ng galit?" Binitawan ko si Tyren. Pinunasan ko ang luha ko."I'll talk to him. We'll talk later about escaping here." Wala sa sari
