The sound of birds and the rustling of leaves woke me up the next morning. A white room greeted me as soon as I opened my eyes. There was an IV drip attached to one of my arms, and I realized I was in the hospital. I didn’t know why I was here or why I felt so light. It felt so light that I couldn't understand why. I decided to get up and look out the window. The area outside the building was clear, and the sunlight was bright. My gaze shifted to the IV in my hand. I knew I shouldn't, but I pulled it out. A little blood came out when the needle was withdrawn. I put the IV aside and looked for something to cover my hospital gown. Just then, I saw a black jacket on the sofa in the room. I grab

"Kasi kung hindi... susunugin ko ang ospital na 'to." ​THE AWAKENING ​It happened at 3:00 AM. ​The room was quiet. The twins were asleep in their sleeping bags. Blake was snoring softly on the couch. ​I was dozing off in the chair, my head resting on the mattress near Atticus’s hand. ​Suddenly, felt a twitch. ​Dumilat ako. ​Atticus’s fingers moved against my cheek. ​"Tin?" ​It was barely a whisper. Mas mahina pa sa hangin. Pero para sa akin, parang sigaw 'yon.

Kumikinang ito ng mahina, parang nananaginip. “Mariel, hook up the monitor,” utos ni Billie. Tumango siya at sinaksak ang handheld sa main port. Nag-flash ang screen. Lazarus Core Detected Awakening Sequence: 20% initialized. “Billie,” sabi ni Mariel, gulat. “Hindi ito dormant. Someone already triggered it!” “Damn it!” sumigaw siya, hinampas ang panel. “Who else has access?” “None,” sagot ni Mariel. “Unless—”

Aella's POV Karma yata ito ng pagiging workaholic ko, o sadyang sumuko lang talaga ang katawan ko matapos ang ilang linggong puyat sa deadlines at pag-aasikaso sa makulit kong anak. Martes ng umaga, imbis na marinig ko ang tila alarm clock na boses ni Luna, nagising ako na parang pinupukpok ng maso ang ulo ko. Ang bigat ng talukap ng mga mata ko, tuyong-tuyo ang lalamunan ko, at nanginginig ang buong katawan ko sa lamig kahit pinatay ko na ang aircon.

Nag dere-deretso naman iyon at nakatulog na siyang mahimbing. Nag alarm siyang super aga para hindi na abutan ni Dawson. Tumakas na agad siyang pauwi. Inabot niya si Gunner na nilalaro si Dorothea. "Kamusta?" Nakangisi ito. "Mahimbing ba tulog ninyo?" Para bang nang-aasar pa ito. "Alam mo napakag*go mo din noh? Sinadya mo akong hindi sunduin? Alam mo bang kapag nag pumilit akong umuwi kagabi e, susunod s'ya."

ALTHEA'S POINT OF VIEW Wake-up call ko ang tunog ng alarm clock. Bago pa ako bumangon, binabati ko kaagad ang sarili ko: “Another day, another stage.” Hindi na ako takot sa chaos, pero ngayon, gusto kong palakasin pa ang sarili kong boses. Simula ngayon, gusto kong pag-igihin ang bawat echo—sa bawat pag-awit, bawat kanta, bawat kwentong mas madiskarte.

Bakit hindi ko narinig na tumunog ang alarm ko kaninang 6:30 am? Talaga bang puyat na puyat ako at hindi ko namalayan ang unang pagtunog ng alarm clock ko ?! Baka nagtataka kayo? Ito kasing alarm clock ko ay hindi ito titigil sa kakakring-kring hanggat hindi ko napipindot ang awake button at 30 minutes kasi ang interval nito, kapag hindi ko napindot ang awake button na ang ibig sabihin ay gising na ako ay hindi ito titigil sa kakatunog hanggat hindi ako nagigising, iwan ko ba! Napaka sosyal kasi ng alarm clock na ito, regalo ito ni Cody sa akin noon para raw mawala ang pagiging tulog-mantika kong tao. Tsk.

EARLENE' s POV " hmmmm! Ah!"inat ko ng magising ako Ah. Sarap ng tulog ko. Parang ganado agad ako. Ewan. Kakaiba ang kondisyon ng katawan ko ngayon. Pinalo palo ko ang pisngi ko saka kumilos. Bawal ang babagal bagal. ( take note: mas maaga sya nagising kesa sa usual time ng gising nya. Ni hindi pa nga nag aalarm eh.)
