The Hobbit: The Battle Of The Five Armies Cast

I sat at the table, watching the food grow cold, much like my heart. Today was my birthday. It was also Leslie Buck's birthday—Katherine White's childhood sweetheart. I unlocked my phone and opened Leslie's social media page. As expected, a new post awaited me. "Grateful to have you by my side for every birthday. Let's keep our promise to celebrate every one of them together in the future!" The photo showed two hands forming a heart in front of a cake. One of them was Katherine's. I could tell from the bracelet she wore. It was the one I had given her. I gave the post a like, then set my phone aside. Without hesitation, I dumped the dishes Katherine liked into the trash and went out to a restaurant to order the food I liked, celebrating my birthday alone. From now on, I would make sure to enjoy every birthday of mine.

Warning: Rated SPG(R-18) Naalala niya si Drix pati na ang paraan ng pag-angkin nito sa kanya. Na parang kapareho ng ginagawa ng lalaki na ito na nasa kanyang ibabaw. Kasunod niyon ay ang muling pagbabalik ng matinding sakit na pinaranas sa kanya ng lalaki ng iwanan siya nito, na halos ikabaliw niya yata. Bigla tuloy niyang naitulak ang buong lakas ang lalaki sa dibdib nito. Para siyang binuhusan ng malamig na tubig, kaya dagling nawala ang nagliliyab na pakiramdam na nararamdaman niya kanina lang. Gusto niyang malaman kung sino ba talaga ang lalaki sa dilim na kasama niya ngayon, para kasing kay damot ng liwanag ng mga sandaling iyon. Hindi niya talaga maaninag ang mukha ng lalaki. Dahil kung hindi siya nagkakamali na si Drix ang kanyang kaniig ay hinding hindi siya papayag sa mga nangyayari ngayon. Sinaktan siya ng matindi ng lalaki, iniwanan na siya. Kaya bakit siya nito kinuha ng walang permiso? Bakit siya kinidnap? Anong dahilan? Maya asawa na ito, kaya anong ibig sabihin ng lahat? “Sino ka!?” Napakalakas na tanong niya. Halatang nagulat ang lalaki sa biglang pagbabago niya ng mood. Kanina lang ay lubos na siyang nagpapasakop sa kamunduhan na taglay nito. Pero sa isang saglit ay nagawa niyang alisin ang init at palitan ng galit ang nadarama. Hindi rin niya alam kung paano niya nagawa iyon. Nakaangat ang kalahating katawan nito mula sa kanya, pero ang ibabang bahagi ay nananatiling magkadikit. Noon lang niya napansin na nakabukaka pala ang ayos niya, nakaayos ito sa kanyang gitnang ibabang katawan. Naisip niya na kung sasalakayin ng matigas na parte ng katawan nito ang kanyang hiyas ay tiyak na wala siyang kalaban laban. “Sino ka?” Malakas na ulit niya sa tanong. “Alex.” Parang naguguluhang bigkas nito sa kanyang pangalan. “Hindi mo pa ba ako nakikilala?”

Ang ampon ng aking ama ay ikinulong lamang sa masikip na storage closet nang halos labinlimang minuto, ngunit tinalian niya ako at itinapon sa loob bilang parusa. Tinakpan pa niya ang ventilation gamit ang mga tuwalya. "Bilang nakatatandang kapatid ni Wendy, kung hindi mo siya kayang alagaan, marapat lamang na maranasan mo rin ang takot na naramdaman niya,” seryoso niyang sabi. Alam niyang may claustrophobia ako, ngunit ang aking mga desperadong pakiusap, ang aking matinding takot, ay sinagot lang ng malupit na sermon. "Magsilbi sana itong aral sayo para maging mabuting kapatid." Nang tuluyang lamunin ng kadiliman ang huling hibla ng liwanag, nakakaawa akong nagpumiglas. Isang linggo ang lumipas bago muling naalala ng aking ama na may anak pa siyang nakakulong at nagpasya siyang tapusin na ang aking parusa. "Sana'y naging magandang aral sa iyo ang isang linggong ito, Jennifer. Kung mangyayari pa ito muli, hindi ka na pwedeng manatili sa bahay na ito." Ngunit kailanman ay hindi niya malalaman na matagal ko nang nalanghap ang aking huling hininga sa nakakasulasok na silid na iyon. Sa kadiliman, unti-unti nang nabubulok ang aking katawan.

Ang mga magulang ko ay dinala ako sa korte para makuha ang puso ko at maligtas ang ampon na kapatid kong babae. Ang judge ay gumamit ng advanced technology upang ma-extract ang aming mga alaala. Ang jury ng 100-katao ang magdedesisyon ng hatol. Kung ang mga magulang ko ang mananalo sa kaso, ang mga laman-loob ko ay mapupunta sa kanila. Sa tingin nila ay hindi ako magpapakita sa trial dahil sa tingin nila ay masamang tao ako. Gayunpaman, ang lahat ay napuno ng luha nang makita nila ang mga alala at ang katotohanan ng nangyari!

Britania Raya menyimpan banyak sekali rahasia yang belum terungkap dalam sejarah pembentukannya. Salah satunya adalah Northern Union Loot, harta jarahan pasca konflik sebelum negara Skotlandia terbentuk berabad-abad yang lalu. Hingga detik ini, belum terungkap lokasi pasti tersembunyinya harta jarahan itu. Hingga akhirnya The Council for British Archeology (CBA) memutuskan untuk menutup pencarian, juga dengan alasan yang belum terungkap. Eleanor Aetherelt, atau kerap disapa Elly merupakan seorang wartawan lepas yang bertugas untuk mengirim tulisan-tulisan jurnalistik pada kantor berita kenamaan. Meski memiliki keterbatasaan sebagai seorang Tunanetra, Elly tetap profesional menjalankan tugasnya, melakukan yang terbaik agar semua mata memandangnya setara. Pada satu waktu, salah satu tulisan Elly mengundang kontroversi, setelah menyebut nama perusahaan besar di Inggris, Thorn Enterprise. Mengetahui hal ini, Sir Edric Arathorn selaku CEO perusahaan sekaligus orang terkaya di Inggris mengantarkan Elly menuju kediamannya. Dalam perbincangan bersama Sir Edric, Elly ditunjuk sebagai orang yang harus melanjutkan pencarian Northern Union Loot, sebagai bentuk pertanggungjawaban akan tulisan Elly yang memberikan dampak pada perusahaan Thorn Enterprise. Waktu-waktu pencarian tidaklah mudah bagi Elly, tak jarang setiap langkahnya terguncang, mulai dari terbatasnya data CBA hingga halangan kelompok Silvie, yang juga mengejar Northern Union Loot berlandaskan dendam. Northern Union Loot bukan sekedar pencarian, melainkan ujian, untuk Elly beserta segala keterbatasannya.
