The Twin Knights

Chapter 2

Ayuki's: 

The class just ended earlier than I expected, and instead of staying inside the dorm, I'm exploring the  whole academy like I've never been in here before. 

Ayuki the explorer! 

Ngayon ay naglalakad ako sa field habang piannunuod ang mga estudyante na busy sa kanilang mga  ginagawa. May mga nagchichismisan, nagrereview at nakaharap sa mga makakapal na libro, at  mayroon din na nilalaro ang kanilang kapangyarihan. Habang ako ay ineenjoy ang paligid nang may  biglang humarang sa napakaganda kong tanawin. What the hell? Ang mas nakapagpa-inis pa sa'kin  nang super duper ay iyong pagmumukha nila. 

Kapatid ng clown. 

A person like me, who is beautiful as a goddess, should not be blocked by an ugly peasant creature. 

"Hey, women! Will you like to move aside? Hindi mo ba alam na wala nino man ang nag-lakas loob na harangan kami?" the girl who had a peculiar bling-bling above her head spoke. Tinaasan pa ako nito ng kilay niyang kasing nipis ng isang tingting. Omy. Ang pangit. 

Yeah. You're pretty, kid. So pretty that I'd like to hit it on the ground. 

"Wait! Tingin ko siya iyong bagong estudyante," said the other girl, and I almost wanted to p**e just by  seeing her hairstyle. Hindi bagay sa kaniya at mukha siyang bruhilda! Her hair is in a high ponytail,  and is it a messy word to describe it? Ok, Nah. I'm going to use 'horrible' to characterize her chosen  style. 

Since when did the horrible thing line up in lovely words? I haven't been informed! 

"However, didn't you also know that a goddess like me wasn't supposed to block my way or my sight  from ugly creatures like you?" I plastered my sweet smile at them as I intentionally highlighted the  word 'you.'

I wanted to jump in delight because of her facial expression. Mukha siyang galit na galit na toro! That  one satisfied my thirst for a trip. Namula ang buong mukha niya at para siyang isang strawberry na  tinubuan ng mukha! My golly. Her blush is in a full level one, and her pissed off face just deepens her  cheeks. 

"What the hell! Didn't you know her?!" she frustratedly yelled. Her maid almost shook her head because of her frustration. 

"Like what you have said, I'm just a new student here," I replied in a super calm tone, even though I wanted to laugh my a*s out. I even gave them the sweetest smile I've ever had. 

Sila ang pabebe girls at wala kayong pake kung mga pabebe sila. 

"Ugh! I'm the only beautiful one here and you? You didn't even reach half of my beauty!" she shouted, and from where I stood, I could almost see her lungs—waving at me. 

Muntik pa ako mag-wave back dahil doon. 

Muntik na ako mapa-irap dahil sa kasinungalingan niya. Psh. Liar! "Oh, really, huh? If you're the most  stunning, I'm the goddess here. Let me give you a few cents of my centavo, why do I have to reach half  of your beauty when I can exceed it? In reality, my beauty is beyond that word, and no one, not even  you, who looks like a coloring book of a child who is still naive can beat me." I kept my head high like I was facing death and had to argue with him for a while before coming with him. Pigil na pigil ko ang  ngumuso dahil masisira niyon ang malakas na banat ko. 

Satanas, mamaya mo na itaas ang mahiwagang tinidor mo. 

Before they could even utter a word, I bid a good-bye and used my teleportation to reach the garden.  Well, they wouldn't be able to answer me, though, because I can see their chin lying on the ground. 

Tama iyan, mga pabebe girls, chin down. 

I just heaved a sigh by looking at the flowers. I can hear the birds chirping and the winds swaying. I like  it in here because of the view and the peaceful sensations that it can offer you. Nature will offer you a  lot of perks, such as tranquility and serenity. No one's going to dare to break the silence of nature,  walang mga unggoy, wala ang kakambal kong mahilig manginis at kalaunan ay susuyuin ako kapag  malapit na pumutok ang ugat ko sa ulo.

My peace of mind breaks as my stomach began to grumble and I could hear it crying inside my tummy. Food! Food! Food! Food! Food! Food! 

Ngumuso ako at nagpapadyak sa inis. Dapat matuto na akong pumunta ng cafeteria tuwing break  time. Hmp! Kung hindi lang ako magkakasakit kapag hindi kumain ay hindi talaga ako lalamon. I  didn't have a choice but to go, so I teleported to the second floor where the monkeys were busy  gossiping that they didn't notice my presence. I invisible myself, heading towards their table, tip  toeing, hoping they could not hear me. 

Nang malapit na ako sa kanilang table ay agad akong napahinto dahil sa nasasaksihan kong mga  pagkain. Pakiramdam ko naghugis puso ang mga mata ko. Oh, Owemgee! Pizza, donuts, lasagna,  cookies & cream shake and much more. These are my favorite! Hehe. I'm sure Kuya Miro has selected  these foods because we have the same preferences in food. 

Hindi nila napansin ang pag-galaw ng mga pagkain na kinuha ko, kaya't agad akong pumunta sa  ilalim ng lamesa para magtago. I don't also want to see their faces because they make me want to  vomit. Kidding. Hihi. 

Gosh! Gosh! Ang sawappp! As for the food I have to eat, everything is so good! Tho, mas masarap pa  rin ako. Hehe. I stopped when I slowly noticed that the temperature was getting hot, but eventually  proceeded when I realized that I've been hot since I was born. In short, ang hotness ko ay inborn! 

Delisyosoo! 

Tahimik akong kumakain nang maramdaman ang katahimikan din sa labas ng aking lungga, marahil siguro nagtatakha sila. 

"What the—where's the food?!" I could hear my twin brother exclaiming, and even stomping his feet on the concrete. Oh, naguumpisa na magalit ang gurilya! 

"Malay ko. Hindi pa ako kumakain," may isang nagsalita at base sa tono ng boses niya, alam kong si Kaizer ito. 

Nanlaki ang mata ko nang marealize na halos lahat ng pagkain nila ay nakuha at naubos ko. Oopsie  Doopsie!

"Greyson! Where is it? Did you ate all of it?!" asked Kuya Miro, as I could still see his feet stomping on  the ground. Pinigilan ko ang tumawa dahil sa ginagawa niya, parang bata na iniwan ng mga magulang  para mamasyal sa mall. 

"Hala! Bakit ako, Kuya Miro? My sarili po akong food oh. Bakit ko papakielaman ang iyo? Huwag ka po manisi!" 

"You, Jayden! Where? Are you making fun of me again?!" Naiimagine ko ang usok na nagsisimulang  lumabas sa mga ilong at tenga ni Kuya Miro, kaya nakagat ko na ang labi ko sa pagpipigil tumawa. Ayuki, Lagot! 

Play dead! 

"Wow! Tahimik lang ang kagwapuhan kong kumakain dito oh. Huwag ka nga manisi, dude! Baka  naman inubos mo na tutal kung kumain ka akala mo aagawan. Pft." 

"No! Raven?! Cody?!" he hysterically called out. Oh, hala! Magiging halimaw na 'yan oh. Grawrrrr!!! 

"Hala, ang bad mo, kuya! Inosente po kami! Under this cafeteria, we're pleading not guilty!" 

"I'm busy reading here." Cody answered him and it went silent for a few minutes before my twin brother spoke again. 

"Then who—unless someone dare to come here and ate them all!" He suddenly stopped—siguro unti onti nang narerealize kung sino ang salarin sa isang krimen na naganap. Hehe. 

"Then who?" sabay-sabay nilang tanong. 

"Twin, get out of there," he calmly said and I bet he really is. Hehe. Masyadong kalmado ang tono ng boses niya at kapag ganoon ang tono matapos mo gumawa ng karumaldumal na krimen, tumakbo  kana! I won't surrender myself to the monkeys! I pursed my lips and crossed my arms while still under  the table. No, no. Find me first! Hehe. 

"Huh?" I could feel in their tone that they were confused by my twin.

Bago pa nila ako mahuli, umalis na ako roon at nag-teleport papunta sa aming dorm. Umupo ako sa  sofa at nag-isip. What could I do to ease my boredom? The night is starting to run out of the sky, and I  can almost see the sunset from the windows. Paniguradong pabalik na rin ang mga unggoy. 

The light anax and I had the same sleeping quarter since the six of them will not allow me to be  separated from them. They told me I was their princess, so I had to be guarded. Hmp! Since when did  the monkeys become bodyguards? All I know is dogs other than humans. 

Nakatitig ako sa kisame habang nagiisip nang kung anong pwedeng gawin nang may isang idea ang  bumulusok sa aking utak. Mukha pa akong nakakita ng isang bumbilya at umilaw sa taas ng ulo ko.  Napangisi ako dahil sa naisip. 

I'm instantly gathering up the props or anything I needed before they got here. Sinigurado ko na hindi  nila mabubuksan ang ilaw sa sala dahil masisira ang plano ko kung hindi mangyari iyon. Sa kabutihang palad, nang sigurado kong tapos at ready na ang lahat ay tsaka ko naramdaman ang mga  presensya nila na papalapit sa pintuan. Before they opened the door, I made myself invisible. I also installed night vision cameras all over the place so I could capture their expressions. 

Sa sobrang excited ko ay muntik pa ako mautot. 

When the door opened, Jayden tried to turn the lights open, but it wouldn't turn on. Their expressions  turn into a confused one because we've never experienced an electrical malfunction here. Ilang  segundo muna ang pinalipas ko bago gumawa ng isang multo sa harapan nila. 

She has stitches in her face, her eyes are swollen and in red color, her skin is dirty green. She's wearing  a white dress, but she's got blood all over her chin and mouth. Besides having a green skin color, she  also has a burnt mark all over her body that makes her more creepy. Her hair is in a messy one, and  most of it is lying in front of her face. 

Tignan natin kung hanggang saan ang kaya niyo. Hehe. 

"Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!" I almost burst into laughter when I saw their face turned into a pale one like someone had been sucked out their blood away from them. Their eyes grew with their mouth as  they stared at the green lady in front of them.

They ran away from the soul, trembling in fear. As expected, so I created another one that looks alike  to Sadako. Goodness. Isa ito sa isinusumpa ko noon na sana mamuhay na siyang payapa sa impyerno  at huwag na magliwaliw sa kung saan. I put it beside them, and they didn't notice it until Sadako  made a faint sound. Dinig ko ang mga buto nito na nababali kaya ay muntik na rin ako mapatakbo  palayo kung hindi ko lang naalala na pakana ko pala ito. Hmp. 

Let's set aside my fear and play with them instead. 

"AAAAAHHHHHH!!!" ladies and gentlemen, once again, they are yelling in perfect harmony. They're  really shaking now, and they even gather in the corner of the living room. 

Shocks! I was facepalming so harshly because of the view. I have to show this to our parents! 

"Pvtang'na!!!" my twin brother cursed in the Filipino language, and what makes me want to laugh more is the sight of him rising and holding a dustpan as if defending himself from the enemy. Saan  niya nakuha iyon? Omy! 

"Uy! Sadako! Waaaaahhh! Hindi kami kaaway, bati tayo! Waaaahhh!” Greyson cried while hugging Jayden beside him. Kita ko ang luha na tumutulo sa pisnge niya dahil sa takot. Omy, my baby. Sorry at  nadamay ka pero ang cute niyong tignan anim so I'll take my sorry back. 

"Ayoko na, beh! Tama na, beh! Tang'na, sis!" Omy! Tumili pa si Kaizer nang sobrang lakas na aakalain mong babae dahil sa sobrang tinis ng boses. 

"Hinayupak ka! Lumayo ka sa'king animal ka!" Cody shouted while kicking sadako right on her face.  Omygosh, did he just shout? Wow! May iba pa palang emosyon si Cody? Akala ko in born na ang  pagka-seryoso niya. Izzaprank pala. 

"Gag*! Ayoko na! Magpapakabait na po ako! Tama na po! Mama!" Jayden pleaded. Should I have mercy, huh? He pleads, but he's cursing me! Hmp. 

"Waaaaaahhh!!! Kuya Cody!! Huhuhu! Natatakot na po ako! Kuya!" Raven literally hugged Cody like a koala while shivering.

They ran away from the creepy soul in a quick move and made it to the other side of the living room,  which is another corner. Seryoso? Tumakbo lang sila, dahil wala naman pinagkaiba iyong pwesto nila  sa kanina. Mga buang. 

Well, for the final prank... 

I made movements in my hands, and the kitchen utensil fell down, creating another sound that made  them scream more because of the fear that crept to their bones. I've also manipulated the cold air,  and I've speeded it up to where they are, which makes them shiver in fear. 

"King'na!" Jayden cursed and pleaded, "Ayoko na talaga, time freeze! Please, po! We will behave na po at sa susunod na araw na lang kami magiging sutil!" 

Mukha silang mga bata na nawawala dahil sa mga itsura at pwesto nila. Magkakayakap silang anim  habang inililibot ang paningin sa paligid, sinisigurado kung mayroon pa ba. Napahawak ako sa tyan ko dahil sumasakit na ito sa sobrang pagpigil ko tumawa. Sobrang priceless ng itsura nila! I think I can  sell the footage to their fan girls. They're surely want to buy it. Hitting two birds in one stone, huh?  Napasaya ko na sila, kumita pa ako! 

I'm a rich pranksterr 

I took the microphone and I turned it on at full volume. "BOOO!" I yelled, making them bump their heads into each other because of the surprise. 

Hala, nahimatay... 

Gosh! Matapang daw sila at isang magiting na mandirigma, mukha pa silang mga sanggano kapag  ibang tao nakaharap, tapos sa isang ganito ay para silang isang kuting na minaltrato ng aso! Mommy  and Tita's should watch the footage! 

This is the best prank I've ever done. I move my hands, and the soul disappears instantly, and I cleanse  the mess that I've made. I took the camera so I could edit it and watch it to my dear viewers—mom  and dad! Together with my tita and tito.
