All Chapters of Darkness Within: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I WAS walking alone in the hallway of our college department when a group of three girls stood in my way. They were looking at me with anger and disgust on their eyes."Move," I ordered. "Don't stand in my way or you'll regret it."They laughed, as if they heard a joke. Tinaasan nila ako ng kilay at pinameywangan. They stared at me like they are superior than me. One of them stepped forward and scanned my whole body from head to toe.I remained calm. I don't want to cause any trouble. Ayokong sirain ang tiwalang ibinigay sa akin ni Mama. At isa pa, hindi ko alam kung ano ang mangyayari sa school na ito kapag nagalit ako."I heard that Mark likes you," the girl in the middle stated. "But looking at yo

Cassy's Point of ViewAFTER minutes of falling into an endless darkness, I saw a ring of light. And as seconds pass by, it grows bigger and bigger until it became a blinding light. Tinakpan ko ang mata ko gamit ang aking kamay. At nang mawala ang liwanag ay bumungad sa akin ang Oakland, ang Capital City ng Phantasm. The whole place has this european vibe, including the structures and climate.Sa Central Market ako napadpad kaya kaagad na sumalubong sa akin ang ingay galing sa mga tindero at tindera at mga mamimili. I can also smell the aroma of newly baked pastries and bread, plus the scent that the flowers from the flower shops emit.As I took a step forward, normalis people started looking at me. Those who were doing something stopped just to look at me. Normalis are those humans who posses no mana or commonly known as magic. They are wondering why I am wearing such clothes, which is my school uniform. Great.I ignored them and roamed around. I need to find a jewelry shop where I cou

Cassy's Point of View THE moment I entered this room is the moment I knew this is the punishment I get from all the bad things I have done in my whole life. Well, technically, I hate being around with people, but I am still expecting na marami-rami ang classmates ko, kasi iyon naman ang expected normal setting ng school. "Good morning!" a girl with blonde hair tied into pigtails, energetically greeted while waving with a big smile plastered on her face.  "Morning," I responded before I took the very last seat, which is far from them. "Why are you sitting there?" tanong ng isa pang babae. She has this long wavy black hair. Her voice's too soft. So Angelic. "Sit beside us."

Cassy's Point of View I WOKE up and went to our classroom early. This always happen to me whenever I get too excited. Well, what can I do? Nangangati na akong makalaban ang babaeng iyon. I wonder how did she manage to be in that section. That Lovelace I saw during the enrollment is stronger than her, but I heard that she was in the Gold-A. "Good morning, Cassy!" masiglang bati sa akin ni Sapphire. "Good luck mamaya! May the Divine God bless you." Tinanguan ko lang siya dahilan para ngumuso siya. She sat beside me and stared at me. "Ang sungit mo talaga." "I know." "Yo, Cassy!" tawag ni Cristof na kakarating lang. "Do your best later."  

Evagne's Point of View ILANG araw na ang lumipas matapos ng petmalu na labanan---ay hindi pala. Hindi iyon matatawag na labanan dahil hindi man lang naka-atake ang kawawang si Merilla. Ay, sandali, bakit naman ako maaawa sa halimaw na hinayupak na bully na iyon? She deserved it! Naks, nakapag-english din sa wakas. E, kasi, e. Dapat lang talaga sa kaniya iyon, at nang maranasan naman niya ang nararanasan namin sa tuwing binu-bully nila kami. Bakit ko ba siya iniisip? Bahala na nga siya. Magahahan na akong pumasok. Ngayong araw ay excited ang tiyo niyo na pumasok, hindi dahil sa makikita ko ang crush ko, ha, dahil wala naman akong crush. Mataas ang standards ko, 'no! Excited ako kasi araw ng Biyernes ngayon, meaning lalabas kami ng academy dahil sa subject naming Exploriat. Pupunta kami sa ibang lugar kasama
