Zaporah.

Lahat ng mga nagtangkang lumapit sa akin ay biglang nagliliyab ang mga katawan dahil sa kapangyarihan ko. They are actually easy to kill and some of them now are scared because of the great power of my energy and presence. Lahat ng mga gustong kumalaban sa akin ay nasusunog ang mga katawan without me, touching them. They are so funny, acting like tough and might but look at them right now! Para silang mga tuta na ngayon ay nagsisi-atrasan dahil sa takot na baka sumunod ang mga katawan nila na lumiyab. How funny that they chose to be a rebel one, choosing the wrong path and kill innocent people but scared to be killed. How I hate their kinds just like the rebels from the Raja.

"Are you okay? Wala bang masakit sa'yo?" Napalingon ako kay Esterno na ngayon ay parang hinihingal habang nag-aalalang nakatingin sa akin. I just shook my head at him as an answer and he replied a nod.

Esterno is my first cousin and we are so close together like siblings since we both grew together in the island of Satharia, in our Kingdom in Avalon. The four Kingdoms was destroyed by the evil Goddesses and Gods, wrecked by the Executioners and the bad girl named Alisis so all the Royalties decided to unite all the Kingdoms and to make one diversity. But because of the big responsibilities, they decided again to divide the islands and bring back the old times. Ang Eastheria, Westheria, Natharia at ang Satharia.

"No one can touch me, Esterno at alam mo 'yon. At tiyaka bakit ka ba hinihingal? Did you lose?" Takang tanong ko pero umiling lang ito at ngumiti sa akin. He gave me a thumbs up that made me sigh deeply.

"You know our powers will be more effective if we are not in our own little world. Meaning, our powers are doubled kapag wala tayo sa mundo natin. So it is impossible for us to be defeated knowing that we are in our advantage moments." Turan niya na siyang ikinaikot ng mga mata ko. I already know that! I am not bobo para hindi malaman ang mga bagay na 'yan at tiyaka hello! I already studied this world since I got here, hindi puwedeng wala akong alam sa mga lugar na pinupuntahan ko. Mom always taught me to be a smart kind of Specialist and at the same time, judicious.

"You have to explain your childish acts to Tita Seraphim, by the way. Hello? I know that you are scared to disappoint them but I know that they'll understand you. First, because you are their son and lastly, it is understandable that you will be beaten by those women because they are better than you. 'Yan ang nakukuha mo kapag hindi ka nag-aaral ng mabuti, and I heard you are also escaping from your trainings!" Napakamot nalang siya ng batok dahil sa sinabi ko. I hissed at him like I was just a snake in a second and he just laughed. 'Tong lalaking ito talaga!

"And you have to explain also to Lara that you were just acting noong nasa Raja tayo. I know it is my fault at first telling him that you cannot control your fully Dragon form but I know that you can preclude that scenario but you still went to the flow and acting like you really can't control your Dragon self!" Natatawa nitong sambit na siyang ikinailing ko nalang. I know we lied and it's kinda bad because of his state right now. But that's when I knew that he is good, that he is kind and responsible for his people. Yes he is the Queen and I am so proud of him even we met and bonded just in a short period of time. I was amazed and touched at the same time that even it is forbidden to use that resurrection spell but still, he didn't hesitate to use it to his friends. He sacrifice himself just to make all of them alive again.

"Alam mo, nakokonsensiya talaga ako sa ginawa natin. At first it is really fun knowing that they are just so easy to fool but when I saw how weak Lara is? Gosh, I want to punish myself right at that moment when he used the forbidden spell." Saad ko.

"Looks like you are having a fun conversation together, huh?" Sabay kaming napalingon ni Esterno sa bagong dating na lalaki. He is unfamiliar to me, ang kasama niyang isa pang lalaki ay hindi rin pamilyar sa akin but I don't have to familiarize them because they are not necessary to my life. To our lives.

"Why? Do you want to join?" Pilosopong tanong ni Esterno na ikinangiwi lang ng lalaki. The first guy who approached us has buzz cut red hair like mine, his body built is no joke na para bang kasali siya sa paligsahan ng palakihan ng katawan. His red eyes are like just the color of my eyes, it is like it will burn you if you'll stare at him longer.

Ang lalaki naman nitong katabi ay seryoso lang na nagmamasid. He is just a normal looking guy, with black low fade hair and common man's face feature. Unlike the red haired guy, this young man has the body of woman. He has no muscles, he is feminine like Lara and Zora. His cold stares actually can give you goosebumps when you are easily get scared but not me, anyways.

Tumingin sa akin si Esterno, tumaas ang kilay ko sa kaniya and showing him my expression na para bang nagtatanong kung ano ang problema niya.

"Huwag mo 'kong tignan ng ganiyan! Patay ka pa rin kina Tita at Tito dahil sa kabadingan mo!" Inis na sigaw ko sa kaniya when I find his stares irritating.

"Oo na! Oo na! Ako naman ang mag-e-explain eh! At tiyaka I know that they commanded you to look for me because they knew that I only listen to you!" Sigaw nito pabalik na siyang ikinasinghap ko kunyari. Magsasalita na sana ako pero natigilan kaming dalawa ni Esterno nang may biglang lumipad na kung anong bagay sa harapan naming dalawa. Hindi kami natamaan pero naalerto kami sa ginawa ng dalawang lalaki sa harapan namin ngayon.

"Bastos ka ah! Kitang nag-uusap pa kami diba?" Sigaw sa kanila ngayon ni Esterno but the cold guy suddenly ran towards him and an ice-made spear appeared on his hand. He used it to attack Esterno but my cousin avoid it like it was just a toy.

"Hmm! You're fast! I heard the two of you are also Demon Gods? How? I thought your country has only one Demon God? 'Yon din ang narini— woah! Be careful with that spear kid! I might get slashed with that!" Napailing nalang ako sa kabaliwan nitong si Esterno at tumingin nalang sa red hair guy. I don't know why he is smirking but I find it annoying. Akala niya ba guwapo siya tignan kapag nakangisi siya sa akin? Akala niya ba magugustuhan ko siya kapag ganiyan siya kung ngumiti towards me? Like eww! It is gross! Mas guwapo pa 'yong mga lalaking nakilala ko sa bar sa Raja, they are all fucking hot and delicious!

Baka makabalik ako do'n one of these days.

"You're an enemy, sayang noh? Gusto pa naman sana kita i-date after this funny battle." Tumaas ang kilay ko dahil sa pagiging self-proclaim kind of person niya. Did he think that I would date him? Are he out of his mind?

"Kompiyansa ka naman ata na lalabas ako with you!" Natatawang sambit ko.

"Actually you're just plain like your companion. Nothing special, ang buhok mo lang ang maganda sa'yo." Asar ko sa kaniya pero ang gago ay ngumiti lang that made me cringe. Kinilabutan ako do'n ah?

"At least you like my hair, well I like you too. We both have this kind of color in our hair right? And you find it beautiful because it is just like yours so what if we'll talk about this right now in my pad? I have lots of food there. I also brought lots of wine if you want to drink with me." Ngisi na nitong turan na siyang ikinainit ng ulo ko. Ang taas-taas talaga ng tingin niya sa sarili niya! Anong akala niya sa akin, easy girl? At tiyaka no way! He is ugly and I don't want to date a guy like him na para bang pinagbagsakan ng langit at lupa ang mukha! Even his body features is not fit sa pagmumukha niya! Literal na buhok lang talaga ang maganda!

I suddenly use my power and throw a fireball to him but it was just like nothing when it hits him. Gumawa pa ako ng marami but he just laughed nang tumama ito sa katawan niya na para bang isa lang itong ihip ng hangin sa kaniya! What the fuck?

"It's useless lady, I am a fireproof." Asar pa nito sa akin pero agad kong pinaliyab ang buo niyang katawan pero mukhang natutuwa pa ito sa ginagawa ko. Mas pinalakas ko pa ang apoy pero nagulat nalang ako nang bigla niya nalang itong hinigop at kinain na parang isang pagkain!

Napaiwas ako bigla dahil sa malapit akong tamaan sa binatong bagay ng kakampi niya. Napalingon naman ako kay Esterno na para bang natutuwa sa pakikipaglaban sa kaharap niya. While me! I am fucking annoyed with this guy na kanina pa ako iniinis! And I can't even kill him with just in one snap!

Pumikit ako at kasabay no'n ay ang pag-ihip ng malakas na hangin. It's hot, it is because of my fire power. Lumibot ang buong init sa buo kong katawan na siyang parang ikinahinga ko ng malalim and I just suddenly felt like I am turning to another form. When I opened my eyes, I saw how amused he is while checking me in my Dragonoid form now. Kitang-kita ko sa mga mata niya ang itsura ko ngayon. My lengthen claws, my Dragon fire tail, my devil horns and my blood colored eyes. My hair is now turning into a literal fire na sumasabay pa sa ihip ng mainit na hangin.

"Hmm, a Dragon. Kaya pala iba ang naamoy ko sa'yo, isa ka pa lang Dragon katulad ko." Hindi ko pinahalata na nagulat ako dahil sa sinabi niya. Anong ibig niyang sabihin do'n? Anong katulad niya? Meaning he is also a Dragon? Nagbibiro ba 'tong tadhana na'to?

"Now, let me show you my Dragonoid form too." Agad akong napaatras nang bigla ding humangin ng malakas but this time, the air is getting hotter. Mas dumoble ang init ng hangin dahil sa kapangyarihan naming dalawa na naglalaban.

I watched his body turned into another form. Lumitaw ang sungay niya sa magkabilang sentido niya and I hate to tell this but his Dragon horns are longer than mine, it is spiral curve shape like it was perfectly carved by the devil. His body went broader and broader like he is a monster now. His tail is bigger than mine, thicker than mine that even his tail has muscles! His big biceps went stronger down to his big palms with his sharpened claws. I know that both mine and Esterno's powers are doubled because we are not from here but knowing my enemy here is a Dragon and at the same time ay isang Demon God, it is breathtaking! It gives me a bit of horror because I know that he is also strong like us.

Napalingon ako sa kalaban ngayon ni Esterno at gano'n din ang kaharap niya. He is now on his Dragonoid Form too. Napansin ata ni Esterno ang mga titig ko kaya lumingon siya sa akin, he ran towards me and gave me stares with seriousness.

"They are both Dragons, Esterno. They are not easy to beat! Ang mga Dragon dito ay malalakas and we can vouch for that because we already know Zora but knowing that they are also Demon Gods? It's hard to sink it in! Both of them are brutally powerful too!" Diing bulong ko sa kaniya.

"I know that, na pati ang apoy ko ay hindi gumagana sa lalaking kaharap ko." Seryosong turan ni Esterno. What the fuck! Same with me!

"His ice is devil, parang katulad na katulad kay Mom. It is fucking unbreakable."

"Hindi ko rin nakayang saktan ang kaharap ko gamit ang apoy na meron ako, Esterno. He is immune with my fire." Hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin namin but I think this is the real battle that we are looking for.

"Mukhang kailangan na nating magseryoso, Zaporah. Hindi puwedeng dito tayo mamamatay! Kailangan ko pang kalabanin ulit si Alfalla!" Hindi ko alam kung magugustuhan ko ba ang pag-e-encourage niya sa akin o hindi. Ano namang kinalaman ng babaeng 'yon dito sa laban namin? Hindi pa rin ba niya matanggap na natalo siya ng babaeng 'yon? Tsk! That girl is the daughter of one of the Devil Lords in Hell and a powerful Enchantress so naturally, she is strong. At tiyaka she can even call real Gods and Goddesses!

"Are you now scared, baby girl?" Inis kong hinarap ang lalaki dahil sa pagtawag niya sa akin ng 'baby girl'. Kasabay ng inis ko ay ang paglitaw ng Dragon kong pakpak sa likuran, nakita ko kung paano mas naging malapad ang ngisi niya nang makita niya ang ginawa ko. And seconds after, gano'n na rin ng ginawa nila, they both showed their wings but unlike sa kasama niya, kulay asul ang pakpak nito. His horns are also spiral curve-like and painted with light blue, his eyes are light blue and his tail is light blue. Halos lahat sa kaniya ay light blue, except sa buhok niyang itim.

"This is unfair, I am not a Dragon like the three of them." Dinig kong bulong ni Esterno pero hindi ko na pinansin at seryoso ng tinignan sa mga mata ang kalaban.

Agad akong sumugod at hinanda ang mga malalaki kong kamay to reach the annoying guy's neck but he was fast enough to dodge it and trap me in his fucking arms! He is now literally hugging my body!

"What the fuck!" Sigaw ko sa kaniya but I just heard him laughed. Suddenly Esterno appeared and kick this guy's face na siyang ikinalayo niya sa katawan ko but the another Dragonoid made his move and kick Esterno's right rib.

"Isn't it sweet to know that we are both Fire Dragons?" Ngisi na ngayong turan ng lalaki habang pinunasan ang dugo sa labi niya. I just hissed at him telling how ridiculous his imagination is!

"I am not a Fire Dragon, you fucker! I am not like you!" Sigaw ko sa kaniya at agad akong lumipad and made a big fireball. Ibinato ko 'yon sa kaniya but he dodge it again like it was just a thrown ball! Lumipad ako papunta sa kaniya para suntukin sana siya sa mukha pero naunahan na ako ni Esterno na ikinaatras na naman nito. I saw the hint of anger from his eyes when Esterno punched his face that made me smirk. Finally, I got to see how annoyed he is right now.

I noticed that the other one is secretly making his move but before he could execute his plan, I immediately throw a fireball at hindi niya 'yon nakita. Natamaan siya sa tiyan na siyang ikinaungol niya dahil sa sakit.

"Stop meddling with us, you ugly." Diing turan ng lalaking panget kay Esterno na ikinangiwi ko nalang. Gosh, walang pinanganak sa aming panget! Wala sa lahi namin ang sinasabi niya.

"Do you think my cousin will like you? You look like a pig with wings!" Sigaw pabalik sa kaniya ni Esterno na siyang ikinahalakhak ko nalang. Gosh! Si Esterno lang pala ang makakapaalis ng mga ngisi ng lalaking 'yan! I am so entertained seeing how annoyed the guy is right now!

Agad akong naalerto nang lumipad sa direksiyon ko ang kaninang kalaban ni Esterno but the other guy stopped him that makes me confuse and at the same time, annoyed again.

"Ako na bahala sa kaniya, Ayshti. Just make sure not to let that ugly meddle with our fight." Seryoso na ngayong turan ng pangit and I saw how hesitated the Ayshti guy pero wala na siyang nagawa at agad inatake si Esterno with his ice powers.

"Ayshti is an Ice Dragon, he is short-tempered and doesn't want to be annoyed at gusto lahat ng mga bagay ay minamadali. Pasalamat ka, kaharap mo 'ko. You won't taste his wrath if he is starting to feel annoyed." Napaikot naman ang mata ko dahil sa walang kuwentang sinabi niya, as if I care.

"Hindi ko alam kung bakit kayo magkasama thinking that he doesn't even wanted to be annoyed but here you are, a walking annoying pal." Agad akong lumipad papunta sa kaniya at malakas na sinipa ang katawan niya but he made his big hands as his shield. Umusok ng kaunti dahil sa pagdikit ng paa ko sa kamay niya because of the heat of our powers. Sinipa ko pa siya sa ibang direksiyon but he was just shielding himself with his big hands again.

I throw fire punches to make his defense weak, napapaatras siya sa mga nag-aapoy kong suntok and I don't know why he keep shielding himself. Binibiro niya lang ba ako? Tangina, anong tingin niya sa akin? A kid?

Pinatid ko siya but his legs was just so strong that I can't even hurt him with that simple kick. Inis ko siyang tinignan sa mga mata and he was just smirking! Pinagmumukha niya akong laruan and I am starting to feel anger within me! Kung kanina ay annoyed lang, but this time I think I want to kill him in instant.

"Why are you so eager to hurt me that much, huh? As far as I remember, you are not from here base on your smell. And I don't even remember that I owe you something." Taka nitong turan but when he starting to feel my anger, bigla siyang natahimik. What the fuck is he saying? This fucking pervert! He is smelling me?

"You killed all the people of Mystic Emerald, my friend's town. You killed them and made their Queen suffer. Ngayon, paano ako matutuwa kung isa kayo sa mga pumatay sa mga taong walang kalaban-laban? You also killed innocent children with no mercy! Do you think I can let it pass?" Seryoso ko na ngayong turan na siyang ikinatigil niya. At kagaya niya, natigilan din ako nang makitang seryoso na rin ang mga mata niya and he is no longer wearing that annoying smirk.

"So you are one of them? You are friend of that fucking gay Queen?" Hindi ko alam pero nahihimigan ko na ang galit sa boses niya but I don't fucking care. And I don't want that insulting tone of him!

"Inatasan kami na patayin siya dahil sa ginawa niya sa mga kasamahan ng lider namin. He killed thousands of them so now, paano namin hindi gagawin ang karumaldumal na 'yon kung siya ang naunang pumatay sa mga kasamahan ng aming lider?" Natawa nalang ako sa sinabi niya.

Naikuwento na sa akin ni Zora kung paano binalak ng mga rebelde na 'to noon na sakupin ang buong lungsod nila. Kaya doon nakapagdesisyon si Lara na iligtas ang mga kakampi niya at patayin ang mga sumusubok na sirain ang pangarap na tahanan nila. I can fully understand their reason, sino namang may gusto na atakihin at kunin ang pangarap na tahanan na matagal na nilang inaasam-asam diba? No one!

"We understood why our leader kept us three Demon Gods here when they planning to take over the whole village,  because we are his assets and he was just waiting for the right time for us to fight. Gusto niyang alamin sa sarili niya muna kung gaano kalakas ang Reyna nila and the rest is history. Alam mo na kung ano ang sunod na nangyari." He added before I could talk.

"And you were already tasked to kill him because your leader expected that Lara is not that strong? Hah! Kung hindi lang nagkasalisi ang landas natin sa araw na 'yon, patay na kayong lahat ngayon. Lara is not an ordinary being, hindi niyo gugustuhin na makaharap siya." Seryoso kong turan pero mas lalo lang siyang nainis dahil sa sinabi ko. Galit na galit talaga siya kay Lara and I know now why but they deserve it. They chose to be a rebel and that path will kill them. Bobo silang lahat para sumanib sa walang katuturan na guild!

"But before that, I will make sure now that you won't get out from here alive." Seryoso niyang turan na ikinaatras ko ng kaunti. Ibang-iba na siya ngayon mula kanina, he is now a mad ugly pal wanted to take me down with his power. Agad akong napaatras pa nang biglang lumiwanag ang buo niyang katawan hanggang sa mas lumaki ng lumaki ang liwanag.

And his loud roar was heard every corner of this place.

He finally turned into a fully Dragon.
