"Yow, we are being summoned by Master Hector." Elijah showed up with his girl.
"Let's go." I stand up and lead the way. Naabutan namin sila Vissy at Haxielle na nagkwekwentuhan.
Nagtama ang mga mata namin and we just exchanged glares. I know this is bad, but I am getting suspicious of her.
She's way too mysterious than I expected.
"What's up kids?" Hector happily greeted us. Haxielle rolled her eyes while Carter is clinging silently in her neck. These two...
They are closer than I expected.
"What's our mission today?" I asked Hector whose in a prince outfit and dancing waltz.
He made a turn and handed me the information.
"Ball night, assasinate the boss of Tervia and Bomb, Mr. Frenzo Arellano. He's a drug lord and illegal transacted some biochemical weapon. Arellano also escaped 4 rape crimes and attempt to murder one of it's daughter Celes Valdez-Kingstel and it's husband CEO of Lexus IT Corporation, Kingstel." I read the information.
"Wait, Did Arellano escaped the jail? Ang alam ko nakakulong dapat siya ng habang buhay? Kingstel and his wife wants that." Napatango ako sa sinabi nito. It was all over the news.
"Sadly, his name changed to Alfredo David and he is managing the company with her other daughter Kyziah Alvin the one with the condition of Alexithymia. She is also the winner of olympic in shooting but she got jailed because of drug usage." Hexton barged in holding the info I have. I heard Haxielle chuckled.
Tinignan ko ito at tumingin rin siya sa akin. Nagkibit-balikat ito na hindi ko nalang pinansin.
"We already have fake invitation. Everyone will meet up 5:25 pm 2 hours before the assasination." I dismissed all of them minding their own businesses.
5:24 pm
I was waiting for them in the car. Nakasandal ako sa gilid. Unang nagpakita sila Vissy at Elijah. Vissy is wearing a red mermaid gown hugging her waist while Elijah is wearing a red tuxedo.
Haxielle showed up with her black velvet gown with a slit on the side. Carter is following him with his black polo partner with crimson red vest. They are all partnered up.
Hexton appeared beside me with a bored face staring at the four.
"You got the plans?" Tanong nito at pumasok sa limousine.
"Yeah, I already got it. Let's just talk about it."
We arrived the event safely they check our identities and let us in.
Clicking glasses make us stop for a bit. We looked at each other and wear our small communication.
Nakipag-usap kami sa mga tao. I eyed on Hexton as a signal. He made his way upstairs to the position. I checked every area their security are medium so we can easily pass.
"Stay on your position. It will start in minutes." I commanded made them whisper their answer.
Silence began when Mr. Arellano clank the glass.
"To all dear visitor's of my birthday, thank you. I would also like to make the honor to thank Buenavista our partnership for my present. And also to my dearest daughter, Ziah for making this wonderful party."
The girl with a pink ballon gown showed up with a fake smile plastered evidently on it's face. She waved throughly that made crowd applause.
"Again, thank you for coming this night. Enjoy!" Everyone applauds in his speech.
The lights get dimmer and the violin started to play creating the tune of Happy Birthday. Choir started to sing as the crowd silently listening while the others are joining.
My gaze turn to Hexton's position. What the hell?! He is gone.
I carefully touched the button to communicate with him.
"Forrest, what happen? Shoot the bullet, now." I annoyingly whispered. I got no response. I made everyone back out their position to change their formation.
I slowly turn around and gone on a stairway. I wore my mask with the carvings of one on it. I messed my hair up at binaliktad ang vest ko upang maging bulletproof.
I made my way to Hexton's position. I found him unconscious my eyes went to the whole area. Nothing suspicious can be found.
The song finished because of the people's applause. Damn it! It will be fail. I can't shoot this time. They are going to know me.
I turned off my communication with Haxielle. She shouldn't know.
"Fifth, step backwards guard the entrance." I commanded. Fifth glanced at me and nod slowly.
"Fourth, check Mr. Arellano and Sixth try to ask someone to hack the CCTV." They followed it too.
"It's finished, Uno. CCTVs are off." Sixth said and I checked it.
"Hey! I've been trying to communicate. You are all not answering. What happen? I'm at the restroom may nagtabig sa akin kanina ng juice. Ugh! This is annoying." Haxielle said. I just sighed at her. I turned off the voice changer.
"We've been taking care of it." I replied she just answered me with ok.
As the music starts to play again the light's turned off. The candles are the only ones lighted up. The visitors starts to make a noise.
"Guests, calm down. We will turn the generator on." Pagpapakalma ni Mr. Arellano. He was walking out ng umalingawngaw ang tunog ng baril.
Mr. Arellano collapsed while holding it's champagne there's a hole on it's forehead and it's eyes are wide shock. Ziah run into it's arm faking it's grief.
I stared from where it came from. I saw a human figure running away. Hinabol ko ito at tinanggal ang mask ko.
Shit! I lost it.
Pumunta ako sa likod ng lugar. I saw a man with white hair ang nakatalikod. The moonlight hit it's arm showing the moon symbol. Grim...
Naramdaman nito ang presensya ko kaya lumingon ito sa akin.
A girl...
Nagtama ang mata namin it's violet eyes are shining. She is staring at me emotionless like always.
"It's nice to talk with you again, president." Her voice are so cold tumalikod ito at biglang nawala sa paningin ko.
My fist clenched.
We finished the mission pero di kami ang gumawa. I stared at my glassboard with the marking of every information I have.
Binaling ko ang aking tingin sa larawan ni Grim. I hit it with my dart and drink some wine. She's different.
You are really something, Grim.
I stare at my reflection in the mirror. My brown wig is covering my silver hair. I put my hazel contact lenses. "Room Cleaning." Kumunot ang noo ko sa taong nasa labas. Pinagbuksan ko ito ng pinto at pumasok. Napasimangot ako ng namukhaan ito. He is wearing a mustache with matching grey color on his hair making him look older."Hector, what do you need?" Huminto ito ng marinig nito ang pangalan. Agad itong tumingin sa akin at ngumiti."Halata ba?" He asked at nagpa-ikot sa kwarto ko. I walk towards the bed at humiga doon.Nang matapos ito mangalikot ay humarap na ito sa akin at nagbigay galang."Milady, your father wants to have a word." He reached me a phone and close every curtains."Lo? What do you want, Dad?" Bungad ko dito. I heard him chuckled and the sound of classic
-Haxielle-"Woah! Mas gumanda na yung Wizzard Kingdom. Axel, samahan mo ako sa Big Top." Yaya ni Remi na nagmumukhang bata. "Wait, what? We are going to ride that monstrous ride? No way." Mabilis na umayaw si Vissy. Remi rolled her eye to Vissy. "Then go to your lame carousel, bitch." Pagtataray ni Remi dito. They exchange their deadly glares at sabay na umirap.These two..."Huy! Doon tayo sa may bilihan ng headband bili." Carter excitedly said at hinila ako papunta doon. Naki-akbay si Elijah sa akin dahilan upang muntikan na akong masubsob."Let's go my brother!" Elijah exclaimed dragging me between them.Save me..
-Haxielle- "That's the thing coconut man. You didn't invite me for a party." I annoyingly said.They all put their guns out at tinapat ito sa akin. I raised my hands up, laughing at the situation. "Hey, hey... I come to take your lives here. Let's start?"I asked. The other guys fire a bullet at me. I move my waist a bit at lumagpas ito sa akin. Boring... I shot my bullet in his abdomen. He immediately back up at napasandal sa kasama nito. "He started it." I pointed out sa lalaking nagdurugo ang ts
-Haxielle-"Lunar eclipse is near. Sabi daw nila eto yung pinakamalapit na makikita natin ngayon." I heard the girl clinging on her best friend said. Ilang beses ko narin naririnig ang bagay na yan.I am sick of hearing that because me. Pinanganak ako mismo sa kalagitnaan nito. Which is I don't know if lucky or not?Pagkapasok ko palang ng room ay agad kong napansin ang nakabusangot na mukha ni Yuki.What happen to him? Umupo ako ng hindi ito pinapansin. Nilingon ko siya and he was still there frowning because of something.
-Haxielle-"Ano ba talaga pakay mo dito, insan?" Tanong nito sa akin. Hindi ako sumagot. Tumayo lang ako at tahimik na tinitignan nito."Nothing, my Dad sent me here because he wanted to," I plainly answered. Mukhang 'di ito nagustuhan sagot ko. But that's the truth. "Then what are you doing dressing up as Grim? You know it's danger for you to do something like that." He knows. Napa-mewang ako sa kanya at sinagot ito. "Then what are you doing as 5th here? Are nuts? Di mo pa sinabi sa akin lahat then we are same. You didn't tell me about 5th and I didn't tell you about Grim. At kung nag-alala ka na baka malaman nila it means you don't trust me,
-Haxielle- "So how did you know the two?" Nagulat si Remi sa biglang sulpot ni Vissy. Carter is there na parang wala lang sa kanya ang nangyayari. Nagkatinginan muna kami ni Remi bago sumagot. "Were friends since kids with Carter." Remi answered. Vissy awed ng malaman niya. "So you guys are kinda like childhood friends. That's so lucky of you!" She clapped in excitement. "Ang swerte naman non. You guys are definitely close since kids." I can hear jealousy in her voice. Hinampas ito ni Vissy at tumawa.
-Haxielle-"Good morning, Haxielle." Napadilat ako sa boses ng dating. It's Kamie she's wearing a sweater at the top of her uniform. "Are you tired?" Kamie asks sitting on a chair comfortably then continuing what she's reading. I shortly reply a hum. My eyes open when Elijah slammed the door and rush towards us. Bigla itong umupo kaya nasagi niya si Vissy. Napadaing naman ng braso si Vissy at hinampas si Elijah. "Baliw! Ang sakit," "I'm so excited this night!" Elijah shrieks sounded like a girl. Napanganga naman si Vissy dahil parang bakla siya ngayon. Narinig ko ang pagtawa
-Haxielle-Sinikmurahan ko ito palayo sa akin. Nakangiti ito sa akin habang lumalayo sa kin. He is getting weird."Keep this as a secret, 3rd." Pagbanta ko dito. Tumango ito sa akin. "3rd, where are you?" Rinig ko sa walkie talkie niya. He place his mask back. He bow down at me bago umalis. Agad kong binalik ang mask ko. Ipinusod ako ang buhok ko at umalis. "Vixen and Shot, give your situation." "I'm okay, Grim!" Vixen said. "I'm okay too, Grim. N
