Third Person's Point of View

Kinakapos ng hanging napabalikwas ng bangon si Heshiena. That was a dream. But she knows it is not just any dream. She really felt she was there inside. It felt real. A glimpse of the past. She was about to wipe the sweat out of her forehead when she heard consecutive explosions.

Causing the ground to shake.

Mabilis siyang umalis sa kama't dali-daling lumabas ng kuwarto. Since the living room's walls are made out of glass, she saw everything that's going on in the city. And who they're up against with.

She changed herself a quick armor using her ability. At hindi nagdadalawang isip na lumabas para tumulong. When she got out, she levitates herself to have a better vision of the city.

Anger was quick to kick in when she saw the damages and the casualties.

The beat of her heart becomes louder as the thunder imitates the sound of it. Partnered with a dancing lightning. A cold breeze brushed against her skin.

Her palms turned to fists. Heshiena was confused for a second when she felt an extreme power surging in her veins. But she immediately embraced it. She absentmindedly smiled.

Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw Mavros, Ace and Chry, helping the city people to escape from the danger zone. She immediately averted her gaze away from Chry when she remembered her blowing that innocent man's head at such a young age.

"Do not look at Lady Heshiena!"

Napabalik ang tingin niya sa kinaroroonan ng tatlo nang marinig niya ang sigaw ni Chry. Her forehead furrowed in confusion.

"If you all did, you will cease to exist!" Sigaw ulit ni Chry.

Magre-react na sana siya nang makaramdam siya ulit ng kakaiba sa katawan niya. She then gasped in surprise when she found herself seem transforming. Ang kaninang inakala niyang nakalutang, ngayon nakaapak na ang kaniyang mga paa sa lupa.

Ang mga gusali at bahay ay lumiit sa paningin niya. Nabalutan ng nakakasilaw na liwanag ang buong paligid. But a couple of minutes, it fades. Rinig niya ang singhapan ng lahat ng nakakita.

But the violent storm-winds remained confident.

"Well . . ." she mumbled to herself when the four violent storm-winds seemed confident to fight her in her divine form. "Who set you all free?" kalmado pero may diing tanong niya.

With how her distorted voice sounds, out of the corner of her eyes, the two of them seem intimidated with Heshiena's presence alone. But they were quick to revert it back from what the other two shows.

"It doesn't matter who." The one in the middle confidently responded. "Aeolus was dumb keeping us under the island of Aeolia. We want freedom! And along the way, we will wreak havoc on whoever tries to stop our master's quest," he added.

Heshiena scoffed in disappointment.

His answers are enough proof for her that they are siding the enemies.

Pero hanggang ngayon, hindi pa rin malinaw kung sino sila.

Hindi siya nagbitaw ng salita. Tinitignan niya lamang ang mga ito para sabihing wala silang kalaban-laban sa kaniya. Thunder echoed causing them to flinched in surprise. Karamihan sa kanila, mukhang kalmado pang naghihintay sa paunang atake niya.

Thinking that it won't affect them.

But they're absolutely wrong.

Heshiena was thinking of how she possibly defeats them in one attack. The only thing that came first in her mind was her lightning. It is as fatal as Zeus'.

The four gasped when Heshiena raised her left hand, facing her palm to the heavens. Lightning cracked, and dragged it using her hand. Their eyes grew wider in surprise. The spirits tried to escape after realizing the trap she made for them. She used the lightning as a whip to bind them.

She managed to catch the two, but the other was quick to transform into horses. Their speed exceeds what the son of Hermes, Seilo, is capable of.

Tumingin siya sa ibaba. Nagkasalubong ang mga mata nila ni Chry. Mukhang nakuha kaagad nito ang gusto niyang iparating nang itaas nito ang kaniyang hinalalaki. Signaling her that she doesn't need to be cautious with her power.

A victorious smile gradually plastered upon her lips.

That only mean one thing, nailikas na ang lahat ng tao sa lugar na 'yon.

She raised both of her hands with palms once again facing the heaven. The two behind her groaned as if trying to warn the others. Dumadagundong ang malakas na kulog. Sumunod ang nakakabinging lagapak ng kidlat. Countless lightnings have touched the ground consecutively, coping the speed the two are making.

It didn't take long for her to hit them, causing the two to faint.

Sumilay ang matamis na ngiti ni Heshiena bago niya gapusin ang dalawa gamit ang kidlat. Hinarap niya ang dalawa na parehong nagpipigil sa sakit.

Fear was the only emotion she saw within those white-storm eyes.

"You . . ." utal-utal na saad ng isa. "You are the one everyone was talking about." Kapansin-pansin ang nanginginig nitong boses. "Heshiena, the goddess of moonlight, seas, a patron of demigods and the protector of the realm of the half-bloods," the spirit added.

The goddess herself scoffed in disbelief because it took him long enough to recognize her.

That scoff emits anger, causing them to be caught off guard.

Heshiena turned herself back to her human form. Bumaba siya sa pagkakalutang. Sinalubong kaagad siya ni Miss Sky.

"Sorry for adding damage to your city." Heshiena glanced at the fire behind her back.

Nagkibit-balikat na lamang ito at binitawan ang isang denim bag na hawak-hawak nito. Diretso niyang binigyan ito ng nagtatanong na tingin.

"This is a magic bag that can transport them—" She glanced at the four anemoi behind her back, ". . . back to Aeolus' cavernous interior of his isle." She finally completed her words.

Tumaas ang kilay niya. "Where did you get that?" she curiously asked.

Miss Sky scoffed as if Heshiena asked her a stupid question.

"It's a gift from Rocky," she then frugally answered. She was caught off guard when Miss Sky suddenly bowed her head. "We will be forever grateful for what you did to Aeras City, my goddess."

It took a minute for Heshiena to recover from surprise. She then cleared her throat to break the awkwardness lingering in the air.

A moment or two, the three arrived. Muli na namang nagkasalubong ang mata nina Chry at Heshiena. But the goddess herself quickly averted her gaze to Miss Sky when she remembered the frightening version of Chry once more.

Sa kabilang banda, kumunot ang noo ni Chry nang mapansin niya ang tinuran ni Heshiena. Hindi niya alam kung may nagawa ba siyang mali rito. But she was quick to ignore it because it probably means nothing.

Aside from that, Chry honestly admitted to herself how frightening Heshiena is while in her divine form. And of how powerful she became.

"It's nothing, Miss Sky," Heshiena responded.

"We couldn't have done it without you, my goddess." Pagpapatuloy nito. "The city has suffered enough since the world has gone dim. We were only waiting for someone to finally stop these violent storm-winds."

Walang nagawa si Heshiena sa halip ay ngumiti na lamang. Totoo nga naman kasing ang laki na ng damages ang siyudad. Idagdag na rin ang mga casualties.

"Funny." Napatingin ang lahat isang anemoi na biglang sumabat.

Chry never hesitated to open the magic bag. And signaled Heshiena to put them back where they should be. Inuna niya ang sumabat. At sinunod ang tatlo pa.

"They are coming," the last anemoi warned Heshiena directly. "What would you do to protect the realm? Turn yourself to them for the sake of the people's safety or fight them but lose everything?"

Mabilis na sumikdo ang puso ni Heshiena dahil sa sinabi nito.
