Crimson's Game 042: You Broke Me First
Crimson's POV‘Don't look, Eliora. Avert your eyes. You'll hurt yourself.’I want to but something is dragging my eyes to stare at them.‘Umalis ka na. Just run. Walk away. Masasaktan ka lang kapag itinuloy mo pa.’I kept telling myself those words but I couldn't. I can't move myself.I can't utter a word. I just watched them. I chuckled. ‘How long do I have to stand here?’‘How long until you finally notice me?’ Para bang narinig niya ang tanong na iyon dahil saktong lumingon siya sa akin. I smiled to myself when he tried to push the girl away.Nakakatawa kung paanong itinulak niya ang babae palayo kung kailan nakita ko na sila. Why did he do that?My lips trembled when I felt a hand covering my eyes, blocking my view. Before I could utter a word, he dragged me out of there.Habang tumatakbo ay ramdam ko ang unti-unting pagbigat ng mga yabag ko. I felt numb. Empty. Like I was slowly being pulled by a blackhole. Dragging me into a void.Hindi ko alam kung gaano katagal akong nakatayo r
Crimson's Game 043: Tell Me Where It Hurts
Knythe's POVI leaned against the wall as I watched Crimson sob on Alaric's arms. I looked away and gritted my teeth. Wala man lang akong nagawa. If only I got there on time...If only I had the chance to pull her away, she wouldn't be suffering like this.flashback...“Oo na, akin na. Now, go and get changed.” Pagsuko ko. Ngumiti naman siya sa akin at saka nagpaalam. Nagbihis din ako dahil nangako ako kay Bullet na lalabas kami.“Where are you?” I asked him on the phone call.[Paalis pa lang ng kwarto.] Tugon niya.“Okay, I'll wait in the lobby--” I stopped halfway when a lady in front of me stopped.“Excuse me, do you know where I can find Gideon's office?” Tanong niya. She flashed a sweet smile pero hindi naman na kailangan. Napakaamo ng mukha, maputi at may katangkaran. Maganda ang hubog ng katawan at bakas sa pananalita niya ang pagiging matalino.You can tell she came from a wealthy family.“Bullet, I'll call again later.” I hung up. “Sorry, you were saying?”“Gideon's office, wh
Crimson's Game 044: Just Another Burden
Hellios' POVI watched as Crimson walk away. I didn't stop her. I chose not to.She's right. Who am I to give her this kind of treatment? I'm just like any other guy who broke her trust. The only difference is,‘I love her.’“Hellios.” Tawag sa akin ni Hanako. She looked at my eyes, asking me if I was okay. I gave her a soft smile before patting her head.“Let's go. Baka abutin tayo ng dilim.” She agreed at my statement. Habang nagmamaneho pabalik, walang ibang pumasok sa isip ko kung hindi siya.Siya lang.What she said back there. How she said it. And how it felt.Maybe I hurt her a lot. Maybe I went too far.Tahimik lang kaming pareho buong byahe. The silence was interrupted when Hanako asked, “did you hear about it?” Pertaining to the girl on Gideon's office.Umiling ako, nakatuon ang atensyon sa daan. “Where did you hear it?”“Trainees, kumalat agad sa sector namin.” She sighed.Hindi na ako nagsalita pa pagkatapos. Maya-maya pa ay, “I'm sorry about earlier.” Usal ni Hanako.“What

Crimson's POVDays has passed and all the good I did was to avoid Gideon. At all cost.*Good day, all. Death Legion's Soiree will be commencing soon enough. Attendees of the soiree are expected to dress in star-studded attire. You are required to bring your plus one to the event. Well-known guests and patrons will be participating.

Crimson's Game 046: Lights, Camera, Action!
Knythe's POVIt was quarter to 9:00 pm already and the party will start at 9:30. Still, no sign of Crimson!Kaya ako nauna ay dahil akala ko pwede na pumasok, ngunit pagpunta ko rito, ang naging bungad sa akin ay,flashback...“You're here alone, Sir?”“Uh, no. I'm waiting for my partner.”“I'm afraid you can't come in without an assistance. The Director ordered us to be strict because we are tallying the numbers of guests.”“But, she'll be here soon. Can't I come in?”“You'll gonna have to wait on the lounge, Sir.”end of flashback...“Damn it, Elle. Where are you?” Pabulong na tanong ko sa aking sarili. I stood confidently, exchanging smiles towards the other guests.This is my way of coping up. If I sat on the lounge while fidgeting with my phone, it'll make me look like I lack self confidence. And that's the last thing I want right now.“Thyne?” A voice called out to me. ‘Great, just when I thought this day could get any luckier.’ Nilingon ko siya at bahagyang ngumiti.“Good evenin
Crimson's Game 047: I Regretted Looking
Crimson's POVEver since the scene Knythe caused at the lounging area, I never escaped Gideon's eyes on me. Nasa iisang lamesa kaming walo. I was sitting beside Knythe, and beside him sat Ethan. Kasunod si Hanako, si Hellios, Vyel. Gideon was beside her. At 'yong impaktang Stella. Nakapaikot kami sa lamesa kaya katabi ko siya.‘Kapag minamalas ka nga naman. Lintek na 'yan.’Pasimple akong tumingin sa gilid at 'yon na naman ang mga sulyap ni Gideon. His eyes were like communicating with mine, saying I should've chose him.I took a deep breath and faced the stage properly. ‘Calm down, Elle. Don't think of him. He's with her now.’Naramdaman ata ni Knythe na hindi ako mapakali. He leaned down and whispered, “what's bothering you?”“I'm fine.” Bulong ko pabalik.“Hungry?”“I ate before leaving.” I lied.“Hmm, we'll grab something later.” He replied. I looked at him and he smiled. “Late ka na umalis ng Legion, and you always eat on time. Don't lie to me, next time.”I chuckled softly. “Fine
Crimson's Game 048: Was It Really There To Start With?
Crimson's POV“At this very moment, I would like you all to remember, that without you, this Legion will fall. No king succeeds without a kingdom to protect. No kingdom will remain standing without knights who protects. I will fall, without my allies. Tonight happened because you made it happen. It has been a pleasure, serving with you, my fellow warriors.” Masiglang sigaw ng Director. Nagsitanguan naman ang mga tao sa paligid namin habang may iilan na palakpak at hiyaw mula sa mga manonood.“Let us all enjoy the rest of this evening, ladies and gentlemen. Have a good night!” Pagtatapos niya.The crowd gave him a round of warm applause, they cheered and stood up as they greet the Director, one by one.The rest of the party went well but I'm starting to feel really bored. I yawned before looking around, observing those folk on the aisle. Naiwan kaming mga babae sa table habang nasa pulungan ang mga lalaki. I looked over the table where the men gathered. The Director laughed as he patted
Crimson's Game 049: The Devil's Den
Crimson's POVI sniffed and fixed myself up. When I got out of the restroom, I was surprised to see Hellios waiting for me at the table.“Nasaan sila?” Nagtatakang tanong ko. He stood up, his right hand inside his pocket.“They're waiting for us, come on.” Nauna na siyang maglakad. I followed him and looked around.‘Gaano ba ako katagal sa banyo at parang nangalahati ang dami ng tao?’“Crimson, going home?” Tanong ng Director sa akin. I looked at Hellios to ask him where we're headed but the Director intervened. “Oh, you're with Hellios. Enjoy the evening, dear.” Ngumiti siya at naglakad na palayo.“What the heck?” I cursed.Hellios chuckled. “I know, nakakapanibago siya makitungo. Kumpara kasi noon ay mas madami ang bisita natin ngayon. Which means there are more eyes to please. Look at his eyes.”Tinignan ko ang mga mata ni Director at nag-obserba.“His actions speaks for his desires, for his eyes tells his intentions.”At totoo ang sinabi niya. Now, I can see the difference. He's th
