All Chapters of To Devour: Chapter 11 - Chapter 17

Luna walked inside a café shop situated in front of the train station. A young lady in a black apron and yellow beret employee hat greeted her to which she responded with a smile. Luna scanned the inside as she walked at a slowed pace, looking for an unoccupied table for two. It was lunchtime and she expected the place to be teeming with customers since it was near the train station after all but it wasn't, fortunately. Perhaps because it was new. She took the table beside the window and ordered two iced coffees. One for her, and one for the person she was meeting there today. The guy in the black hoodie she bumped into last night was Van. She reckons that he was from the clan of prescience and augury, seemingly a foreseer. She wanted to talk to him but they were both in a hurry last night. They decided to meet in this café the next day. Luna was anticipating meeting him and to ask him what he saw in the future where her grandfather, the Bakunawa, and herself were in. They were suppos

Kilometers away from the moving bus which Luna and Van were in, a happy Manila Atienza sat patiently, wearing not just the prettiest attire but also the most attractive smile. She was waiting for her date. Manila opened her phone, reading a message she just received. Her heart thumped faster when she read that he was soon to arrive.

His beige ankle pants were a good choice for his long legs, Manila thought. He sure knew how to make the best use of his lean figure

Bagwis, Luna, and Van huddled beside the old well. Fews hours from now, a big and risky drill is about to take place in order test the new-found strength of the Bakunawa as well as assess its novel changes. Bagwis finally explained his sudden disappearance to his grand daughter, but leaving out the part of just how immese the changes are in order to not put any sort of discouragement on them. Van stood on his left and Luna to his right. There were different kinds of equipment below them which Bagwis just laid out a couple of minutes ago. He decided not to let them go, thinking that it would be more dangerous to send them back into the forest than keeping them safe with him. The least they could do was help him and keep their presence concealed. "I want you to do everything exactly as I say you should, do your understand?" Bagwis said to which the two agreed upon. As he explained in detail everything they have to do, he handed them both gas masks, a gun and a torch for Luna, and a kni
