A forbidden love vowed and cursed all demons and angels. That’s why they want you dead.” My throat dried, limbs shaking. For too long I believed I was cursed, hated myself for having no friends and family, curse the grim, but it was probably the only way for me to repent the things I have done in the past. I was still frozen, tila bawat lakad ng orasan ay ang paghinto ng oras. What have I done in the past? I am eager… So eager that it pains me.My twin suddenly fell coughing and boiling in so much pain. He tried to stand but failed, shouting as the feather in his wings almost look empty. His body was shaking, the feral feather of his wings fell like a fallen leaf. I was about to touch him but he stops me
Glimpse Of Death My vision went clear but it was a new scenario, gone the misery and shattered place. Pati yung sugat at baling buto ng katawan ay nawala. It was dark, pure dark. The chills in my spine couldn’t stop me from heaving. Palaging ganito, mga oras kung saan malapit ko nang maabot ang isang susi lagi akong hinihigop sa kadiliman. Is the truth afraid of me to be sought? Or I was never meant to even seek for it? What’s in the past? The taboo, Heddon was talking about. Suddenly everything went clear, I am standing in a place filled with thorns and blood, napakalawak nito. An empty ruin. Inilibot ko ang mata sa paligid. It was a mess like a war had happened here. My footstep echoed along the way. It was this moment that gave me chills, like a deja vu. I close my eyes to get tiny shattered pieces of blurred memories. Nagpatuloy ako sa paglalakad, blood was dripping from the thorns. My curiosity beams up when a flickering light flashes in my eyes. The right hallway w
Glimpse of Death Isang maugong tinig ang kumalampag, kinusot ko ang mata. Nang marinig na may pagsabog sa gitna ng gubat ay napatayo ako, hindi na naming kailangan tanungin kung ano ito. I hurriedly went outside the room, nadatnan ko rin ang natatarantang Zelus, si Yael naman ay nakaseryoso na. Heddon signaled to shut our mouth. Bawat pintig ng dibdib ko ay halos tumatalon. There was another explosion pero mas malapit na, ilang segundo na lang ay alam kong matutunton na nila kami. The whole ground shakes as the explosion took place in the opening of the cave. Natumba kaming lahat. I look at Zelus aching in pain, hindi pa ganun kaayos ang lagay niya. I crawled behind him and fully supported his body. He looks at me and nodded. “I’m here, you’ll be fine Zelus.” Heddon pointed an end wall, he led us. We stared at each other and stood. “Run when I say three.” Mahigpit ang kapit ko kay Zelus. “Three!” we run fast. “les tuer!” a dark horse voice shouted as blades and daggers w
Glimpse Of Death“Heddon is a friend, tell him this…”Sa hindi inaasahan ay lumabas sa bibig ko ang salitang. “Je t’aime de toute mon âme.” I was out of breath and my vision was blurrier nang unti-unting lumuwag ang pagkakasakal ni Heddon sa ‘kin. I fell on the ground, coughing and inhaling the loose oxygen. Heddon slowly walks backward, his body was shaking until he came back to his normal form. Ramdam ko pa rin ang hapdi at dugong tumutulo sa leeg at noo. The numb pain in my whole body started penetrating once again, my limbs started to excruciate an overwhelming pain. My head touches the ground and I couldn’
Glimpse of Death"Heddon is..."Napabangon ako ng naghahabol hininga. It was as if I never breath air for a minute or so. I was suffocating, droplets of my sweat run down my forehead. Mabibigat ang bawat hininga ko. Kinapa ko ang dibdib kung saan mabilis na tumitibok ang puso. "What was that?" All I remember was I passed out and that voice, ano ang kinalaman ni Heddon? Heddon is what? I'm freaking out. Umiling-iling ako. I patted my head. Pilit na ina-ala kung ano ang napaginipan ko. But nothing. Walang kahit anong matandaan. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang nararamdaman ko o kung ano ba ang nangyari katapos nun, all I know is that I was tired, nanghihina at pagod ang buong katawan. Huminga ako ng malalim. Bumukas ang pinto at pumasok si Yael na may dalang baso at pagkain. "Are you okay?" he sat beside the bed, patted my head and back. I nodded in response."Good, we must leave this midnight." I crease my forehead. "Huh? Why?" he sighs.
Glimpse of DeathHindi mawari ang ekspresyon namin. Kaba, takot, pangamba at kung ano pa. Heddon's face is freaking serious. Ngumisi ito ng malapad. "One of the seven archangel, Zerachiel."He whispered."Hmm... the moment you step on this forest I already know who you are. Naka-alalay sa ‘yo ang presensya ng hari niyo. Yael Zerachiel, granted by the Gods with the power of light, and the leader of the whole archangels." kumunot ang noo ko. Matagal ko nang alam na archangel si Yael, but not one of the higher up. He is not just some archangel. Hanggang ngayon ay di pa rin maproseso ang mga sinasabi ni Heddon. "But maybe not anymore, a taboo." Heddon laugh evilly, pero kahit nakakatakot ang tawa niya ay hindi man lang ako kinabahan. "A taboo, the forbidden rule of the heaven and hell that you should have not made long ago. I remember it all again, the pain, suffering and death." ngumisi si Heddon, pero kita sa mata niya ang nag-uumapaw na saki
Glimpse of Death Nang mabuksan ang secret passage ay agad kaming pumasok. Isang maliwanag na daan ang bumungad sa amin. We have no idea kung nasaan ba kami at kung ano na ang nangyari kina Leticia. Okay lang ba sila? Honestly, I feel so scared and weak, I wanna cry my frustrations and wish that this is just another nightmare. Kagubatan. Nasa kagubatan kami, pero iba kumpara sa gubat na dati naming pinasukan ni Yael, kung saan puro mababangis at disgrasya ang aabutan. Maaliwalas ang paligid, may mga matatayog na puno at damo pero wari ay di pa rin nito matanggal ang kaba ko. Halos blangko na rin ang utak ko, alam ko na maputi na ang labi ko, my mouth is dry too."Where are we?" Nagkatinginan kami ni Yael, umiling lamang ako. Bumuntong hininga dahiil sa nangangatog na mga tuhod. I want to rest, wake up and wish everything is back to normal. Konting konti na lang ay babagsak na 'ko. "We must find shelter." ani ng bata. Sumang-ayon ka
Glimpse of DeathMarahan kong binuksan ang terasa. The little child is lying behind the bar, hindi pa rin gising. Ikalimang araw na siyang tulog, maski tubig o pagkain ay wala pang nakonsumo.Sa limang araw na tulog niya ay hindi ako lumiban para tingnan ang kalagayan. He's in his wolf form, thou I'm not scared. Ilang beses na rin akong pinagsabihan na wag dumalaw rito. I just can't keep it; I want to make sure his safe and okay.I stared at his situation. Wala na ang sugat sa tiyan. Unti unting bumukas ang mata niya. Maimpit na boses ang lumalabas sa bibig. Linapitan ko siya at nakitang papabalik na siya sa taong porma."Okay ka lang?" he looks at me, mukhang ina-alala pa kong bakit siya narito."Nasaan ako?" mahina ang kaniyang boses, inilahad ko ang basong tubig na dala na agaran naman niyang tinanggap."Nasa bahay ka nila Leticia, hindi mo ba naalala ang nangyari sa 'yo? Kung bakit ka nandito?" he slowly shook his
Glimpse of DeathNagising ako dahil sa konting kaluskos. Kinusot kusot ko ang aking mata, I tried to roam my eyes around.I stood up. Alas tres na ng umaga, I heard the scratches again.I turn the lights on, at nagpalinga linga. Mas nagiging creepy ang paligid, the wind became strong that it opens my window. Nilapitan ko ito at sinarado, pero paulit ulit lang itong bumubukas. I am starting to feel scared and anxious. As the wind blew, my white night gown dance with it.I look outside then saw a shadow, moving fast.Mabilis kong sinrado ang bintana, I moved the cabinet to block the wind. Goodness, this is getting creepier. Wala man lang peaceful night and sweet dream?!The scratches didn't go away, pakiramdam ko ay mas lumalapit lang ito. I closed my eyes and calmed myself. Pa-palapit nang papalit ang tunog, tila ba mga yabag— mabibigat, at parang pagod. My body felt cold, shivering in curiosity. Nilapit ko ang sarili sa pin
