CHAPTER 6: Mystery Arrow .2
981 Words
Xyra Eunice POV
"Wahhhh!"
"Oh My!!"
"What was that?"
"s**t!"
The students at the cafeteria panicked. Everyone is in shocked. So, do I.
"Eun" / "Uni" / "Yra" / "Princess" sabay na bigkas nina Keisuke, Black, Clarise at Aries.
"I'm okay...Don't touch it yet." I said sapat na upang marining ng grupo. Para kasing may kakaiba sa palaso na ito.
The bullied ladies a while ago seems to be in the same composure. Na parang wala lang sa kanila, na expeted na nila 'yon.
"You guys seems not bothered at all." At hindi na nga nakatiis si Mid. Makahulugang saad niya sa mga babaeng nangingialam sa mesa namin kanina.
"Are you saying na were the ones who did this (sabay point sa arrow) on purpose?" Lady 1 said.
"I did not say that..." Mid answered.
"Guilty as charge yarn?" Nakangising saad naman ni Star.
"Tumahimik ka nga! If were the ones who plan on doing that, sana naman may pinatamaan man lang sainyo diba? Para worth it." Pilosopong tugon naman ng leader nila.
Well, she has a point. Pero what if sinadya nila, like a warning. But it is very impossible kasi ngayon pa lang ang una naming encounter ng mga ito.
"Uni!" Patakbong pagpunta sa gawi namin ang grupo ni Maxwell.
"Are you okay? Natamaan ka ba? Ano?" Pag-aalalang tanong sakin ni Maxwell.
"I'm alright. Thanks for your concern." I answered.
That Keil guy is leaning in the table, and I think he is about to touch the arrow so, I stopped him.
"Hold up... Don't touch it yet." I calmly said.
"I know there's something in it. I don't intend on touching it. Just wanted to take a close look." He answered still emotionless.
"Sabi ko nga titingnan mo lang ng malapitan...ako din kaya chuuupiii, tabi ka muna." Saad ko na ikinatingin nya ng seryuso sakin.
"What?" Tanong ko pa.
"Tssss..." He just said that then lean closely to the table where the mysterious arrow is.
"Abat-" He cut me off.
"shhhh" saad nya.
He looked so serious while examining the arrow. It got me curious kaya I leaned too. I am right beside him.
"This is no ordinary arrow." He spoke. Sapat na para marinig ko.
"It looks like a poisonous one." I blurred out.
"Yeah, it i-" He stopped suddenly.
"Wait! How did you know it is a poisonous one?" Sabay naming tugon at tingin sa isat-isa. Sobrang lapit na ng mga mukha namin at one wrong move, maglalapat ang mga labi namin.
We stared for like 10 seconds before siya umiwas ng tingin.
"I'll handle this one..." I said sabay tayo ng matuwid.
"And how will you do that?" He stands straight too and look at me.
"Well, ahm kasi, I mean, the University will handle it. Right Aries?" Saad ko sabay tingin kay Aries with my signature 'help me' look.
"Ah, yes. I'll take care of this incident." Aries said with assurance.
"Everyone don't panic now. This incident will be recorded, and the University will take care of the investigation. Rest assured na isa lang itong naliligaw na palaso." Aries added.
Muntik na ako don ah. Pero ang nakakapagtaka, bakit parang ang lawak naman ng kaalaman niya sa isang palaso na iyon. No ordinary person can easily determine if it is poisonous or not.
One thing is for sure. That Keil guy is no ordinary man. Pati kaya sina Maxwell?
"Hana and Clarise, do me a favor please." I asked them seriously. Napatingin din ang ibang ka grupo namin.
"At your command." Hana answered and tumango naman si Clarise. A response na she's on the go to whatever favor it is.
"Find out their groups." I commanded, pertaining to Maxwell's group and the bully ladies.
"Well, for that Keil and his group, we have information but not all." Saad ni Clarise.
"And for those women, we will dig into it." Assured by Hana.
Travis Keil POV
"What happened to your search for that Eunice?" I asked the group.
"Still in progress Kiel." Dark answered.
"I think we can use Light's connection to that Eunice girl." Night suggested.
"What do you want me to do? I'll tell you, she's special so I won't do it if it harms her." Light said.
"You just have to observe her, them. No need to do any harm." I answered.
"Okay, got it. Ako na bahala." Light answered with assurance.
"And before I forgot, didn't you have something to explain Maxwell?" I sarcastically said.
"Ah yon ba? Later na lang sa HQ." Light answered habang busy sa phone niya.
"Okay, later huh?!" Saad ko sa walang ka emo-emosyon.
"Sabi ko nga ngayon na." Tugon naman ni Light habang pakamot-kamot sa batok.
"Spill it." I then said.
"We're childhood friends. Eunice, Sheen & Aries are cousins. We live in the same Village before and classmates until were 10 years old. They have to move out after then and I no longer have connections with them." Mahabang explanation ni Light.
"Then why did you not recognize them before? I mean we encounter Eunice for 3 times already." Tanong naman ni Dark.
"Well, I somewhat recognize Aries, but Eunice and Sheen are different. Sobrang laki ng pinagba-" Light was not able to finish what he was about to say when the same mystery arrow just landed in front of us. Tumama din ang palaso sa glass table dito sa cafeteria.
No one is around. Kami nalang ang natira at paalis na din sana kami kundi lang pinag-explain 'tong si Light.
"Investigate this incident, Night." I commanded. Something's not right.
