《Arkiyo Liondel is my ENEMY》CHAPTER 3
Advertisement
It's almost 8:00 in the evening na at wala padin akong naririnig na katok mula sa glass window ko. Lagi namang ganito ang senaryo, mag hihintay ako na mag alas otso ng gabi and then maya-maya lang kakatok na sa window ko sa Arkiyo para sunduin ako. Yes oo opo, tumatakas kami lagi ng gabi at madaling araw na ako umuuwe nang saganon ay hindi kami mahuli.... Sa ganitong paraan lang kasi ako nakakagala saang panig ng pinas, kasama si Arkiyo at sina Belle ay malaya ako.
Ilang minuto pa ang nag tagal at nakarinig nadin ako ng katok kaya dali-dali kong binuksan ang bintana ko... Laking tuwa ko nang makita ko si Arkiyo, "Ready kana sa Roadtrip?" Tanong nya saka ngumiti.
Tumango naman ako at kinuha na ang kamay nya. Sabay kaming bumaba at nag tago sa bawat cctv na aming madaraanan, tapos non ay kaliwa't kanan ang tago namin dahil sa ganitong oras puno na ng mga body guard ang buong mansyon namin... Buti nalang at kabisado na naming dalawa ang pasikot-sikot sa buong lugar, alam namin kung saan sila nag lalakad o pupunta kaya naman madali kaming nakakatakas.
Sabay kaming bumaba sa may gate sa likod ng mansyon, inalalayan pako ni Belle para hindi ako mahulog tapos tumakbo na kami pasakay sa kotse ni Al na nag hihintay saamin.
Hingal kaming sumakay at pinaandar na iyon ni Dilan.
Alam ko kung saan kami pupunta. Buong byahe nag patugtog lang kami at ngumata ng mga chips na bili nina Belle at Al kanina, hay sana lagi nalang ganito... Yung tipong hindi namin kailangang mag tago para lang maging masaya, sana parati kaming mag kakasama.... Hindi ko maisip ang buhay ko kapag wala sila lalo na si Arkiyo.
Halos dalawang oras lang ang byahe namin at nakarating din kami saaming distenasyon, buti nga at hindi ganon ka traffic kung kaya't mabilis lang ang naging byahe.

Pinarada ni Dilan ang kotse at bumaba na kami. Agad namang binuksan ni Belle ang pintuan ng bahay nila... Isa itong rest house nina Belle kaya naman parati kaming nandito, wala naman gaanong kapit bahay ito at isa pa ang paligid nito ay puno ng puno at bundok.
Dali-dali kaming nag tungo sa favorite spot namin ng bahay.... Sa may terrace kung saan tanaw na tanaw ang Taal Volcano.
***
May kalayuan ang pwesto nina Belle at Al saamin ni Arkiyo, tapos si Dilan naman ay sandaling nag pahinga at alam naming lasing nanaman sya.... Pareho lang naming dinadama ni Arkiyo ang malamig na hangin na humahampas saaming mukha, dinadamdam na namin ito dahil wala naman ganitong masarap na hangin sa Manila. Isa ang Batangas saaming sage place, walang gulo, payapa at masayang ala-ala lang ang nabubuo tuwing andito kami.
Ilang sandaling katahimikan ang namayagpag nang mag salita ako... "Arkiyo,"
Nilingon nya ako ngunit sa Taal lang ako nakatingin habang nag sasalita. "What if ito na ang huling punta natin dito?" I don't know kung bakit ko iyon naitanong, basta bigla nalang pumasok sa utak ko ang mga bagay-bagay sa reyalidad. "and what if... What if ito na ang huling araw na mag kakasama tayo?"
Kita ko ang pag labas ng maliit nyang ngiti na tila ba hindi iniinda ang masasakit na bagay na mangyayari sa hinaharap. Kahit kailan naman hindi ko sya nakitang nalungkot, lagi lang syang positive sa mga bagay-bagay.
"Shhh..." Ginamit nya ang kamay nya para mahuli ang aking mukha at hinarap ito sakanya. "promise ko sayo, babalik tayo dito at gagawa ng maraming masasayang ala-ala"
Agad naman akong napangiti.
"Wag ka nang mag-isip ng kung ano-ano," Hinalikan nya ako sa noo at muli akong hinarap ng may ngiti sakanyang mga labi. "basta kasama moko... Walang masamang mangyayari"

Tumango ako at hinalikan sya ng matamis... Lumalim ang halik naming iyon at nauwi pa nga sa pag hawak nya saaking beywang kung kaya't sinita na kami nina Belle at Al
"Mga pashnea!" Sabi ni Belle na nakaupo di kalayuan samin. Natatawa naman si Al sa tabi nya, "Pwede ba kung gagawa kayo ng kabalbalan dun na sa kayo lang dalawa"
"kaya nga," Muntik pang mabulunan si Al kakatawa. "kumakain kami ni Belle dito tapos mag lalampungan kayo HAHAHAHA"
Nakaramdam naman kami ng hiya kaya naman hinila na agad ako ni Arkiyo patungo sa kuwarto. Bago yon ay narinig pa namin ang pahabol na sigaw ni Al... "Enjoy! Gawa kayo baby!"
Natawa nalang kami ni Arkiyo nang makapasok kami sa kwarto. Inilock nya iyon ay humarap saakin, sinunggaban nya ako ng halik na aking sinabayan.. Habang ginagawa iyon ay tinatanggal nya na ang aking saplot...

The Core: The First Guest (Book 1 of 3)
Book two starts here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/46417/the-core-the-hive-daughter-book-2-of-3 --- Kevin was just a normal 10 year old kid until he saw a woman vanish right before his eyes. This made Kevin just a little bit different. He paid more attention to people now. Little did he know that this little difference would kill him the next time he encountered another alien about to return home. It would tear him apart, cell by cell, until he was unmade. His mind being transported away. So distantly far away there is a race that advanced to the point where they built dyson spheres to house their civilizations. In their continual expansion, they seeded galaxies with pods and connection satellites. Over time they upgraded their dyson spheres into matryoshka brain Cores. Imagine a computer powered by a star. Citizens of Cores no longer age once they upload their minds into the virtual living system of the Core. While they didn’t age, most still choose to cycle through life and death though at a different scale of time compared to our lives. Citizens can visit other planets and live there as if they were on a "vacation". Mercury is Earth’s hub connected to the closest Core and Earth is a remote vacation spot for wealthy citizens. When the main character was 10 he witnessed a citizen returning to the Core. The story continues 10 odd years later when he again witnesses a similar situation unfolding and manages to touch the person returning to the Core. This causes him to be swept up in the transfer as well and for his mind to join as a "Guest" user of the Core. As a Guest he has limited powers, a starting balance of zero cr or Citizen credits, and no idea how he can get home. He is the first human to ever become a Guest of a Core. Where money itself is the highest form of their science. --- Progress update: Progress update: COMPLETE Stories:✦The Core: The First Guest (The Core: Book 1 of 3) ✦The Core: The Hive Daughter (The Core: Book 2 of 3) The Core: The Hive Daughter (Book 2 of 3) | Royal Road Stories in PROGRESS:✦The Core: The Dark Enemy (The Core: Book 3 of 3)PROJECTED Stories and Series: ★The Radiative Zone Series: The Girl with Powers (3 book series) ✶The Convective Zone Series: Into the Game (3 book series) This series is a work in progress.

The London Phantom: A Superhero Webnovel
London is an old city. It has survived floods, fires, plagues and the man-made smog of industry. It has stood firm against the armies of Vikings, Saxons, Normans and the aerial might of the Luftwaffe. It has borne witness to dynsatic feuds, civil wars, military occupation and the sin of regicide. Through all these disasters the city has survived not through force of arms, though its walls were once the envy of the world, but through adapting to the times. Enemies become dependant on the city, and the wealth of the world that flows through it, and so become new allies. If the rulers change, then the city welcomes them with open arms, and open lines of credit. In this way the city seeks to preserve its ancient rights and position of power. Superheroes are a new phenomenon. The first superpowered man walked out of the Nevada desert in 1950, and the world was forever changed. Across the planet, men and women with exceptional abilities made themselves known. At first, they were little more than another source of fear in the era of Mutually Assured Destruction, but over time attitudes changed and the concept of the Superhero was created in the city of Los Angeles. From there the phenomenon spread across the globe; superheroes went from being feared arms of the state to a symbol of hope in these maddening times. Times have changed. Sixty years from the emergence of the first superhero, the City of London stands on a precipice. Two years have passed since the madman Fawkes nearly brought down the United Kingdom and the remnants of the Bow Street Runners, London's premier superhero team, are struggling to keep order in a city that seems on the brink of collapse. London stands on a knife's edge, with criminal organisations that once stuck to the shadows becoming more bold, and ancient powers from myth and legend making themselves known. Alexander Laszewski has recently 'awakened' and has become entirely unremakable, effectively making himself invisible to the world. He must use his newfound power to navigate a city on the edge of collapse. If only he could figure out how to turn it off.

To Burn a Kingdom
It has been centuries since Gods and Angels forsook the world of Ashaari, leaving its people Faithless and divided as Magic begins to fade. But some of their powers still remain, embedded deep in the earth as rare Gems and sometimes, in blood. Wars are waged and fought over these Gems, for what little Magic they provide. But now, a new prophecy has arisen. The Angels will return and with them, comes Magic and hysteria. - In the kingdom of Illya, Princess Arellia Virtris lives a life of opulence but she is miserable; a caged puppet whose strings are controlled by the members of her court.

But when her brother—the crown prince Vasilis— suddenly arranges an unfavourable marriage, her life begins to spiral out of her control.

Life has left him dispirited save for one last reckless campaign that he hopes would end it all. As fate— or perhaps, bad luck—would have it, on the night of summer solstice, the lives of these two unfortunate souls are intertwined as they find themselves caught in the dark webs of politics and sinister schemes. When they meet and tragedies unfold, their decisions will ultimately trigger a series of events that will alter the course of history. *** Warning: This novel is grimdark and will contain descriptions that some readers may find disturbing.
