Chapter 18

Calamba Laguna

Third Person's POV

Kimki sat on the couch, across her sat Felipe. Silencia or Mary on the other hand is outside watering the plants. Kimki lied to Felipe about how Mary got amnesia and a lot more. Kimki has a feeling that Felipe doesn't believe a thing that she said.

"My dear guest, I am also a demigod. You can tell me everything. "Felipe said with a smile on his face. Kimki was shocked to know that Felipe is also a demigod.

Felipe stood up from his sit and walked towards the window. He looked up the sky and smiled. "I am a son of Athena. I was born around two hundred years ago. More than 300 years ago this country was under the control of the Spaniards. My mother sent me here in order to help them. I wasn't able to stop them altogether. They thought I was dead. My mother gave me immortality because of my heroic act. I know everything there is to know in this country. I know about the girl who one day would save the world. It's her isn't it?" Felipe asked.

Kimki sighed and looked at the floor. She was shocked to hear what Felipe just said. She doesn't really like hearing other people's problems or their sad history. She often thinks that she's not the right person to hear all these confessions.

"Yes she is. Her soul was stolen by someone else." Felipe walked from the window towards the cabinet and opened it. He took a majestic foreign container and put it on the table. "This was given to me by Athena when I was 15 years old. My mother told me to give it to the one without a soul. When I was young I didn't understand anything my mother said but now I understand. It's meant to be given to your friend outside."

Just when Kimki was about to reply, Mary went inside, she looked at Felipe then at Kimki then she sat down at the couch, waiting silently.

Felipe opened the majestic container and from it a dark smoke came out. It laughed and went flying towards Mary and the moment it touch her it disappeared.

Kimki slam her hands on the table. "What was that? Tell me! I can properly see that it's some dark spirit! I thought I can trust you! You said you were a son of Athena! What did you do?" She yelled angrily. Felipe sank down to his chair. His head bow low, his voice soft and sad.

"My real name is Jose Rizal. I'm supposed to be a hero. I'm just protecting my country. He said if I did that, he'll spare my country. I don't want anyone to die!" He said looking directly into the eyes of Kimki, realizing his mistake he bow his head low, looking at the floor. Soon, tears were falling from his eyes.

"I calculated everything! There's no other way. You're not going to win this war! Never in a million years. Stop trying you're just going to lose!"

"If we're just going to lose why does HE needs you to do this? I thought you're a scholar? I thought you're a hero! You're nothing but a fool!" Kimki yelled back. She grabbed Mary's hand and dragged her out of the small hut. She found a tricycle and they immediately ride on it. The tricycle dropped them off their hotel. Kimki wasn't able to relax until they were inside her room. Qiara, Kimki's friend was waiting for them.

"How did you find her?" She asked.

"I have no time for those stupid questions! Book a flight to New York."

"Kimki did something happened?"

"Just book the dammed flight! Can't you see that there is something wrong! Why can't you understand? Just do what I told you! " Kimki pushed Mary towards one of the bed. She put his hand on top of Mary's shoulders and with a soft voice she started murmuring some kind of enchantments. Once she was finished though, nothing happened.

Qiara stood up from the table where the computer is then walked towards Kimki and slapped her with no hesitations. "Why the hell did you just do that? I might not know what's going on but you went too far! I don't fucking care if Nico likes you or what so ever, you're being crazy!" Qiara said while she pointed her ring at Kimki. Her ring glowed like that of the sun after a few seconds a sword came out of the ring and rested on Qiara's hands.

"If you don't stop, I'll kill you." Kimki stood up a ball of darkness forming on the palm of her hand.

"I thought you're my friend, I guess I was wrong." A beautiful long dark sword started forming from the ball of darkness. Jewels were patterned on the hilt. Without any hesitations Kimki charged at Qiara. Clang, their swords hit each other. Qiara jumped away from Kimki, Kimki run towards her, just when she was just about to slash through Qiara, Qiara managed to jump using the hotel table towards the other side, landing on the bed.

"Kimki! What is happening to you? You're not the one I used to know!" Kimki didn't answer her friend, instead she run towards where she is and stab the place where Qiara used to be before she jumped once again to dodge Kimki's attacks.

"Fight you coward!" Kimki said as she rush towards Qiara. Qiara pointed her sword towards Kimki and from the tips of her sword out came a light, blinding Kimki. During the confusion, Qiara got hold of the Mary sitting on one corner of the room, oblivious to the fight that just happened. Qiara whistled and two birds big enough to carry a person flew towards them Qiara positioned Mary on one of them and she sat on the other one. Together they flew away from the hotel..leaving Kimki all alone.

Tears fell from Qiara's eyes as she remembers what just happened. Her best friend just tried to kill Mary with the song of death and what's worst is she didn't hesitate on killing her as well. Something definitely happened when Kim found Mary and if she doesn't find it out sooner or later…something worse might happen..
