There is blood everywhere and a lot of people are screaming and running. The Japanese soldiers are gaining the upper hand. “Quick, we need to hide!” Apolonia grabbed her hands and started pulling her in the direction of the woods. “No! I need to find my friends first!” Alice tried to break free but Rosa held her arms to help Apolonia in dragging her. “You help the wounded first, I will meet you in the woods.” She pointed at a few people lying on the ground but still alive. She heard gunshots and clanging of metal to metal when some of the soldiers ran out of ammunition and used their short swords to fight some of the guerillas. “Alice! Watch out!” Isagani shouted in front of her. She instinctively ducked and Isagani had the chance to stab the Japanese soldier who is about to stab her. She realized that the troop of soldiers must have discovered their hideout and Ramon and the others were caught unprepared. She grabbed the rifle of the dead Japanese beside her and started calming
As they are bantering with each other. Alice cannot help but think of the vision that she saw on the lake and the one that came to her while she was unconscious. She is also thinking about the voice that she heard mentioning something about five days. It is giving her a warning. Alice is smart enough to know that five days from now, her vision will happen. She knew that what she saw was the event that would happen if she did not do anything about it. This is not a trivial matter and it needs urgent attention so she hurriedly told her friends about it. She doesn’t care if Fernando is there since he and Odette will get married soon and she thinks that he can help in persuading Ramon and the others to quickly form a strategy that will ensure their safety. “See here Fernando, this is very important and I hope that you will not think that I am evil or weird.” Alice looked seriously at Fernando after telling the story. “Not at all, you are lucky that you have the gift.” Fernando answered
“What do you propose?” the captain asked Alice. “Instead of fighting with them head-on, why don’t we use sneak attacks? In that way, they won’t be able to contact their comrades for backup.” Alice said hurriedly. “You mean, we are going to ambush them?” the captain said thinking about a strategy that Alice was proposing. “Yes, but we do not need to use rifles or guns since it will just attract too much attention.” Alice said. “What?! We will use machetes or our bare hands, we will surely be dead.!” The captain exclaimed. “No. We can wait in the cave and ambush them. Instead of using guns, we will use poisoned arrows.” Alice looked at the others. “Poisoned arrows?” the captain is in deep thought while tapping his chin with his forefinger. “I saw some thorn apples in the woods earlier and rosary peas. If they drink it or inhale the smoke of the burning thorn apple, the effect of the thorn apple will make them hallucinate, or worse, it will make them crazy. While the rosary pea wil
“You may now kiss the bride.” The mayor ended the ceremony. “Congratulations!” Alice hugged the teary-eyed Odette. Everybody wished them the best of luck while clapping. The captain who stands as the godfather is happy as well. “Please bring all the food to the table.” He said to one of the ladies. Everybody sat at the table and started eating. It is just a simple meal with several dishes and it was supposed to be a meal after the meeting so it is not much. Fernando and Odette are still grateful for it. They are so happy now that they are married. “By the way Odette, you need to pack your things in Ramon’s house because you will be living with Fernando from now on.” Tomas told Odette. “Oh, I don’t have much, just a few clothes and nothing else.” Odette answered his father-in-law. Alice didn’t see this coming, that she and Johnson would now be alone in the room but she did not give much thought about it. With the war going on around them and the training and preparation, it would
“Let’s take away all the pieces of evidence that they were attacked!” The captain barked his orders sounding like a soldier talking to his troop. He then turned to Alice and Johnson and asked them to go to the underground tunnel to check them out and give them an update on what was happening. “Do you still remember where it is?” he asked Johnson. Johnson, who went to the entrance of the tunnel a few times to help in bringing the materials and food needed for the evacuation, answered the captain. “I remember it clearly, captain.” They all went out of the cave, Alice and Johnson turned in the direction where the hiding place is, and the others headed to the scene where a lot of dead bodies were lying. Pedro looked longingly at Alice while she is walking away from his sight. “How long it will take us there? I hope Odette and the others are doing fine.” Alice asked Johnson after walking for a few minutes. She noticed that the forest is becoming denser and darker. “If we walk fast, we
“Ah, just as I had imagined it, pink nipples.” The leader said in his language. He stood up slowly and circled Alice etching in his memory every curve of Alice’s naked body. He was so aroused that he stood up in front of her and suddenly stooped down to lick one of her nipples. He looked at her face, but he could not see any emotion which made him more aroused. He feels that she is trying to hide her fears, but he can feel it. He sat on the chair again in front of her and continued jacking off. He then suddenly licked Alice’s womanhood and he felt that she is frightened and about to step back but he used his other hand to hold her butt so she will remain in place. “I will torture your friends if you move.” He threatened her again. Alice shut her eyes and felt fear for Johnson and the others, so she just let the leader lick her nub. He is sitting on a chair masturbating in front of her while she is standing in front of him. She felt him squeezing her butt cheeks and pushing her legs
The camp in Manila is big, there are several structures for the prisoners and the soldiers based on their ranks. Alice guessed that this is the main camp but to her delight, she was put in a cell together with Johnson, Pedro, Isagani, and the two others from Laguna province. “Why did you put them all together in one cell?” The captain who rode with them in the vehicle asked the soldier. “It is the general’s order, Captain Miyoshi, sir!” answered the soldier. The captain looked at Alice and smirked before going in the direction of the office of the general to report. After untying them, the soldier locked the door to their cell and left without saying anything. Alice immediately went to Isagani and hugged him worriedly. “Oh my gosh, how are you feeling now?” she asked. “Ouch!” Isagani winced when Alice touched him. He checked his wounds and saw that it hasn’t healed yet. Alice was mortified when Isagani pulled up his shirt. She saw that the cuts from the lashes were deep. “It is
Japanese soldiers came barging in just at the crack of dawn. They woke up Alice and her friends tied them up quickly and ushered them to ride in a vehicle in front of the camp. They also saw the woman that the captain had abused on their way to Manila. Ken and the captain will not be traveling with the prisoners so only the low-ranked Japanese soldiers are with them. There were are total of 2 trucks holding the prisoners and 3 military trucks with soldiers in them. The abused woman sat next to Alice this time and she looked so pitiful. "Hi, my name is Alice. What is your name?" she asked the woman. "My name is Isabela." she has a hard time looking into Alice's eyes because she feels that she is very dirty. "Can we become friends?" Alice asked. Isabela nodded shyly but after talking with Alice for a while, she felt comfortable with her. "You are from this area?" Alice asked. "I lived in the province of Taguig but I was captured by these soldiers on the way to visit my grandmothe
