1st Persons POV
------------------
2 days after
Sumama kami kina doktora at Mr.Crawl where the old apartment lies. They've been staying there for fewdays, malawak ang espasyo ngunit makikita mong luma. The whole room was not furnished but the space is great. The rent is cheap but worth it for hiding.
Mahilig ata sina doktora ng spooky and abandoned-like buildings nor basements where to hide. Ess..
This place is near at the Dillingham Airfield where we will get our planes to East Island.
Max meet Larrence at the Airfield just yesterday and he told us about the agents whose been looking for us. Larrence was very scared at nagbook agad ng flight papunta sa Pilipinas pero pinigilan siya ni Max at bin-lack mail ulit. Nanatiling under the camoflauge si Larrence kaya hindi naming siya napapansin. Mr.Crawl and the boys where planning something. The real boss is now leading the group. And here I am with Doktora.
"How long have you been hiding, boy?", doktora asked. Hindi nagsalita ang lalaki dahil na rin sa panghihina.
"Iha, give me the catheter"
I handed over the catheter na tinuro ni doktora.
I was like a nurse assisting a surgeon, more like a quack one dahil wala kaming masyadong gamit. This guy's situation is really bad and serious. We inject anesthetics to the wounded part.
Nadatnan siya ni Larrence at Max malapit sa ilog nung papunta sila sa market. Dinala siya dito para maagapan lalo na't isa rin siya sa amin. AKini already donated his blood for this Korean guy so we let AKini to rest a bit.
The wounds already heal because of Akini's blood pero hindi nito nagawang gamutin ang nalasong likod ng lalaki. May isang bukol sa likuran niya malapit sa kaniyang spinal
I almost throw up when the catheter excrete the liquid inside the lump. It was yellowish and..
Ughh..Ang baho.
It smells like a rotten flesh.
Seriously?
Ughhh..
Iniabot ko kay doktora ang tube kong saan nakalagay ang natitirang dugo ni Akini.
"Lets get him up", Doktora said at inalalayan namin ang lalaki na maupo.
"Drink", Doktora said.
Pinainom nito ang dugo ni Akini. The Korean guy refused but Mrs.Patricia forced him.
"That's good for your health. Now tell me whats your name?", tanong ni doktora sa kaniya habang pinasandal namin siya sa headboard ng kama.
"Anong pangalan mo?(Korean)", tanong ko sa lalaki.
Tumingin siya sa akin ng bigla akong makaramdam ng matinding sakit sa ulo ko. Parang may naumpog na matigas at malaking bagay sa ulo ko.
Bigla akong natumba at hindi marinig ang sarili kong boses kahit na alam kung nagsisigaw ako dahil sa sakit.
Hindi ako nahihilo pero nakakamatay ang sakit na nararamdaman ko. Tila nababangibi ang bungo ko.
"Your eyes", I whisper ng tiningnan ko ulit ang lalaki.
Lumapit agad sa akin si doktora and I know she's talking but I can't hear a single word.
A familiar feeling was creeping me out. Some scenes had flashed.
An old warehouse flashes in my mind. I saw myself in rage, staring at something with desire.
Sumakit ulit ang ulo ko. I closed my eyes and shout because of the unbearable pain. But it seems im being summoned and I can't hear my voice. I can't feel myself, only that scene flashing into my mind is what im aware of.
I saw Mr.Crawl shouting at me,his holding a blade.. My ice blade,it was as if pulling me to get close to it. Mrs. Patricia push me when I was urged to go forward and hold the blade.
I stood up… still focused on the ice blade.
It was like another life form I need to take care of. I can feel myself being powerful with it.
Mr.Crawl's saying things, even angry because I can see in his eyes but I hear nothing. I saw myself reflected on the shiny blade. I saw two eyes in a moonstone color. I was mesmerized and I was stopped but the desire within me is still rushing. My Ice Blade..
"AAAHHHHHHHH!!", isang malakas na sigaw ang kumawala sa bibig ko at tila siyang gumising sa akin.
The pain is fading but the desire is still strong.
Doktora was beside me, crying and afraid. I was leaning at her. She embraced me tightly whispering me to calm down. I saw the guys staring at me, worries on their eyes, but a chrysophase pair of eyes was staring at me surprised. But somewhat reminded me the monster I once become.
Bigla akong natakot hindi dahil sa may-ari ng mga matang yun pero sa sarili ko. I can't bear to see myself with those eyes. I can't. Doktora hugged me tightly.
At nagsimula akong umiyak.
"Shhh… Iha, its alright.. its alright. You've done nothing wrong.. shhh.. its okay Stellar . Everybody is fine. Its all right.. shhh", paulit ulit na sinasabi ni doktora ang mga katagang yun hanggang sa nakaramdam ako ng panghihina at hindi namalayang nakatulog.

3rd Person's POV
-------------------
Nasa kabilang kuwarto ang dalaga kasama sina Doktora at Mr.Crawl. At walang nag-abalang kumatok dito. Pinakain muna nina Max ang kilalang bisita.
"Oh my gurl.. what did just happened? Oh my gosh, this is kalurkey", Larrence said habang lumalapit sa tabi ng kumakain na bisita. The visitor ignore the presence of someone standing beside him .
"Tumahimik ka Larrence, at umalis ka nga diyan", Sita ni Max. "Anong ginawa mo sa kaniya?(Korean)",Max continued while looking at the visitor
Sumabat ulit si Larrence pero nagalit si Max kaya umalis ang pinsan niya at pumasok sa loob ng isang kuwarto.
Hindi naman siya pinansin.
"Why did you show those eyes?", Akini was standing just beside Max.
"Yeah.. what did you do?", Miko said while sitting on the old wooden chair facing the guy.
"Where talking to you", AKini said. Medyo galit ito pero tila hindi siya pinakinggan ng lalaki.
"Ano ba!"(Korean), Max. Biglang lumapit si Max sa binata at hinawakan sa kuwelyo dahilan upang mahulog ang mga kubyertos ang mainit na tubig na nakalagay sa baso.
".tss… PAgod ako, pwede bang hayaan niyo muna akong kumain. Bitiwan mo ako! Hindi ko rin alam ang nangyari sa kaniya. At kung may problema kayo sa mata ko, pasensya pero ganito talaga to.. tss. (Korean)", sabi nito kay Max.
Inis na binitawan ni Max ang lalaki.
"What did he say?", Tanong ni Miko.
"…..", Max and leave the area.
"Hey!.. Don't go in there yet", Akini reminded to his brother ng mapansing papunta ito sa kuwarto kung saan natutulog ngayon ang dalaga.
"Tss"… Nagtransform si Max ng makalapit ito sa pintuan at tumagos sa pader.
'What shall we do now Crawl?', tanong ng doktora kay Mr.Crawl habang nakahawak sa kamay ng dalaga na pinagpapawisan habang natutulog.
'The kid is her match. I know you know what I mean, at hindi sila basta basta paghihiwalayain. Stellar's weapon personality will be much more handled when she learn with that young man', Crawl said.
Umupo si Crawl sa isan lumang silya na katabi rin lang ng kama. Tiningnan niya ang dalaga.
'Its not her time to go there yet', Crawl said.
"I know, but she's with her friends. She'll not like it when we keep her stay. What shall we do with that?', Mrs. Patricia said.
Sa isang sulok silid kung saan nakatayo at nakikinig si Max na hindi alam ng mga taong nasa loob mismo ng kuwarto ay naguguluhan. Umalis siya at pinuntahan ang lalaki.
Biglang natumba ang bisita dahil may sinuntok siya ni Max.
"Max!", sigaw ni Akini kahit na hindi nila nakikita si Max.
"Sino ka? Anong ginawa mo kay Stellar?(Korean)",Max said as soon as he appeared.
Tumayo ang lalaki at imbes na bigyan ng sagot ay binigyan niya si Max ng isang suntok.
Maglalaban sana ang dalawa pero pinigilan sila agad nina Akini at Miko.
Lumabas si Larrence dahil narinig ang komosyon sa sala. They were both holding Max na pilit kumawala sa pagkakahawak nina Larrence at Akini.
"Hey Hey!!", Miko held back the guy with force when the guy wanted to get near to Max.
"Max!! What are you doing? Do you want me to punch you rather?", Akini.
Binitawan niya si Max ng kumalma ito.
"Im Park Dan Yeong. They usually call me Yuan, nice punch", The guy said. Iniabot niya ang kamay niya kay Max for a shake hand pero iwinaksi ito ni Max. "Okay…", he said. "Jerk(Korean)", he continued that made Max glared at him.
"Wala akong ginawa sa girlfriend mo, ngayon ko lang siya nakita at.. aaminin kong may nangyari kanina na kami lang ang aalam. Selos ko ba pare?(Korean)", Yuan said trying to tease the beast.
"Ayan… Kilala niyo na siya. Oh my gosh, why did you punch my Oppa?", Larrence said na nakapamewang ngunit walang pumansin sa kaniya dahil naka-camoflauge although, his precence is obvious in the room because his talking
"What are you saying?", Miko interrupted.
"I don't know your name, brother?", Yuan said at tiningnan si Miko na nakakunot ang noo.
"Miko…", he answered briefly at tiningnan ulit si Yuan ng pagtataka. "Your eyes", tanong ni Miko at tinuro ang mata ni Yuan.
"Oh my.. And im LArrence Oppa", Larrence said at agad na lumapit kay Yuan stretching his hands forward for a shake pero hindi alam ni Yuan kung may tao sa harap niya o wala dahil naka-camouflage si LArernce sa pader.
On the other side, nagtataka si Akini sa lalaki at sa kinalaman sa nangyari kay Stellar kanina. He was standing behind Yuan na nakaharap kay Miko. Akini's extra mutation is Aurax, named for the minor personality of a genetic mutant who can feel the outburst of psychomutants personality and power. Akini felt the energy on that guy that was something in Stellars personality. He thought that the guy is a weapon himself, who has the purest weapon alteration he ever encountered, despite of Stellar who has the greatest energy within her personalities.
"Kung ano man ang kaya mong gawin, papatayin kita kung may gagawin ka sa kaniya(Korean)", Max said as he passed near Yuan who was talking to Miko.
Umiling si Yuan at inisip na walang katuturan ang sinabi ng binata sa kaniya kahit na alam niyang seryoso ito.
