Each and everyone around the arena shouted loudly when the announcer announced that the Novel Knights were finally within the underground. Lahat ng mga naroroon ay excited na mapanood ang laban. Who couldn't be? The powerful gangster group in the world will be fighting the second in rank.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE ARE ALL HERE TONIGHT TO WITNESS THE UPCOMING FIGHT OF THE TWO TOP POWERFUL GANGSTER GROUPS IN THE WHOLE WORLD. ARE YOU READDDDYYYYYYYY????????? "hyper na hyper na sigaw ng emcee.
"YES!!!!! WOOOOOHHHHHHH!!! " sigaw ng lahat ng nandoon. Gangster or not. They all can't wait.

RAIN'S POV.
I'm smiling widely while I'm watching Lucien and his gang entering the arena. Hindi ko maipaliwanag ang excitement na nararamdaman ko. Nilibot ko ang tingin ko sa paligid. Katulad ko, excited din sila. I look back into Lucien and I stare at him. Ey anubey!! Boyfriend ko okay? May RIGHT ako.
*laughs*
As I was saying I stared at him. He wore white sando with black leader jacket, fitted black jeans (slightly tattered on the knees), leader black boots, and he wrapped his knuckles with a bandage. For me, HIS STUNNING!! SO HANDSOME AND COOL!!I smiled triumphantly.
HIS MINE NOW!!
"AND NOW, LET'S ALSO WELCOME THE SECOND IN RANK ,THE PHANTOMS!! " emcee
Suddenly, I feel strange. Pinagmasdan ko ang bawat miyembro ng Phantoms. Yeah!! Yeah!! Lahat sila may itsura. But, what is this feeling I am feeling right now? Ang bilis ng pagtibok ng puso ko. Hindi ako mapakali na kong ano.
My gaze went to their leader. His hair is red with black eyes. Matangkad siya at mediyo maputi. His face is emotionless and he's smirking like he knows what will happen tonight. He has a cross scar on his side neck.
Cross scar.
Then it hit me.
I smirked.
Now, now, now. You finally came out huh? After so many years.
I bring out my phone and I browse within my contacts. When I finally found what I am finding. I tap it to call.
"Yes?"
"Scorpio. . . I want you to follow me guys here. Tell them. " I said sweetly.
SCORPIO'S POV.
"W-why? " I stuttered.
Kinakabahan ako. I know, even how sweet our leader said it, I know there's something behind it. May nangyari.
"Because . . . we were getting back what we OWNED TO. " Sagot ni Lider.
I smirked because of what I heard. Then I unconsciously laugh hard.
*laughs*
"For how many years huh? " sabi ko maya-maya lang.
"Yes."
"Okay, sasabihin ko na sa kanila. I know, magiging masaya ang mga yun. " masayang sabi ko.
"Hahaha!! Alam ko yon Nick. After all, they've been waiting for this time to come."
"You say it." I said with a smile.
"For now, do what I've told you. Bye. "The call disconnected.
"HEY GUYS!! WERE GOING TO THE PHILIPPINES SO PACK THE THINGS YOU NEED." Sigaw ko sa kanila.
Tinignan lang nila ako ng naguguluhan na ekspresyon. I signed.
"Rain called. " sabi ko sa kanila after that sign.
"What did he say?" masayang tanong ni Misha habang lumapit siya sakin AT INALOG AKO. >_<
Inilagay ko ang kamay ko sa noo niya at itinulak ko nga palayo sa akin. Ano ba yan!! Mahigpit pa rin ang pagkakahawak niya sa akin. I heard a chuckle that came from one of them. Then Yuri come forward palapit sa kinaroroonan na min as he pulled Misha off of me. Misha hug Yuri that has already a slight tears in his eyes.
"Yuri, his mean to me. " nagsusumbong na sabi ni Misha habang itinuturo niya ako. Naku na man. Nagsumbong pa!!! Yuri smiled at Misha.
"Shhh. . . it's okay. . okay? Kaw kasi. . . alugin mo ba na man." masuyong sabi ni Yuri then he wiped the tears of Misha away.
Hindi na sumagot si Misha bagkus ay yumakap lang siya kay Yuri. For the second time, bu mun tong hininga ako. Tinignan ko ang iba pa naming kasama. Ramdam ko na hinihintay nila na sabihin ko kong ano ang sinabi ni Rain sa akin. I smile evilly.
"He said that we'll get back WHAT IS TRULY OUR'S!!!! " I said.
Ngumiti silang lahat na para bang yun ang pinakamahalaga. Well, It is!!! Mahalaga iyon para sa amin. Lalong-lalo na. . . Sa KANYA!!!!!
SOMEONE'S POV.
Meanwhile. . . .
balik tayo sa underworld. Magkaharap ngayon ang Novel Knights at ang Phantoms. Their faces is all emotionless. Except for Storm. Gaya ng una. . . . his excited. Sa lahat ng Novel Knights, siya ang unang-una na gustong makipaglaban. Gusto niya laging may nanghahamon sa kanila. But sadly, minsan lang silang tumanggap. For say, thrice a month? They all bow their head for respect.
"FIGHT!!" emcee
Five vs Ten.
Novel Knights vs Phantoms.
They all prepare themselves for the upcoming fight between them. Unang sumugod ang dalawa sa miyembro ng Phantoms. Ang dalawang ito ay may hawak na patalim. Sinalubong sila ni Kennedy whose holding his daggers and his grinning widely. Sinangga niya ang atake ng dalawa gamit ang dagger niya sa magkabilang kamay. Then he attacked them as payback. He slash his daggers to the two. Sadly, nasangga nila.
He keep doing that, every slash, he take one step forward habang ang kalaban niya ay palikod ng patalikod. Habang busy si Kennedy sa dalawa, Ruark and Kaiser run faster sideways. Ruark to the left and Kaiser to the right. Habang tumakbo sila sa magkabilang gilid ng arena, sumunod na man sa kanila ang ilan sa mga kalaban nila, two each.
Palitan sila ng atake habang patuloy pa rin sila sa pagtakbo kong saan-saan sa buong arena in as faster pace. Kaya ang nakikita lang ng mga nanonood ay ang pag kislap kapag nakadaupang palad ang kanya-kanyang sandata. But of course, Rain is the exemption. He can perfectly see what was happening within the arena. Then he suddenly smiled when he saw that Ruark scratched the face of his opponent and the blood is now running on his face.
"Nice one Ruark." Rain whispered.
Ruark who have a good hearing, he smiled widely then he saluted at Rain. Si Lucien at Sky na natira sa gitna ay parang wala lang. They were both calm and relax. Pinapanood lang nila sina Kennedy, Ruark at Kaiser.
"Hindi niyo ba tutulongan ang kasama niyo?" nakaka-lokong sabi ng Leader nila na kilala ng lahat na si Cross Phantom.
"Hindi na kailangan." Lucien.
"Hindi na kailangan? o hindi niyo kaya?" sabi na man ng kanang kamay ni Cross na si Phantom Breeze.
"Hmm!! Just think whatever you want." sabi na man ni Sky.
Naasar na man si Breeze sa sinabi ni Sky.
"Ano? Simulan na natin?" maangas na sabi ni Breeze.
Hindi sumagot si Sky. Biglang sumugod si Breeze kay Sky pagkatapos inilabas niya ang baril niya then he shot three times at Sky. Si Sky na man na nakatayo lang ay inilabas niya ang pocket knife niya, a gift from Rain nong bumalik siya galing ng Japan at balewalang ipinang-sangga niya iyon sa bala na palapit sa kanya. Then he bring out his handgun and shot breeze continuously.
Umurong na man patalikod si Breeze pagkatapos ay tumakbo siya palayo kay Sky habang binabaril niya ito. Sky runs after Breeze while using his pocket knife defending every bullet that is flying toward him. At ngayon palayo na ang dalawa sa kinaroroonan ng kanilang Boss.
"Ano na naman ba to? " tanong ni Lucien.
"Wala naman. . .gusto ko lang na makuha ang rango niyo." sagot ni Cross.Lucien smirk, reproving cross. Then he said---
"Hinding-hindi yan mangyayari."
"Mangyayari yun ngayon. Look around you. " mapagmalaki na sagot na man ni Cross.
LUCIEN'S POV.
Gaya ng sinabi ni Cross nilibot ko ang paningin ko at nakita ko ang mga miyembro ko na nahihirapan na sa kalaban nila. I tighten my grip to the katana that I am holding.
"You will pay for this." sabi ko.
Naglabas ako ng dalawang throwing star gamit ang kaliwang kamay ko at ibinato ko yon sa kanya kasabay non ay ang pagsugod ko sa kanya at handa ng iwinasiwas ang hawak kong katana kay cross. Nasangga niya iyon at nakita ko siyang naglabas din siya ng maliliit na patalim at ibinato din niya yun sa akin. I immediately handed my katana on my left hand patalikod. Ang patalim ng katana ay nakatutok sa likod ko. Then I bring out my long dagger para pang-sangga sa mga patalim. Patuloy ang palitaan na min hanggang sa nasugatan ko siya sa tagiliran. MALALIM na sugat. I stop ng tumumba siya.
"You know what? You will never beat us. " I said with a cold tone.
"HINDI!!! " sigaw niya.
Ngumiti ako sa kanya na mapangkutya.
"Look around you. " I said then I snapped my two fingers.
Nakita ko ang panlalaki ng mata niya ng nakita niyang biglang tumayo ang mga kasama ko na kanina lang ay tumba na. Then my gang mate immediately finished their opponents just a blink of an eye. I stared at Cross in triumph.
"It's done. " I said coldly. Then I slashed my sword at him.
RAIN'S POV.
'Good for you.' I said in my mind.
Hintayin mo ang kabayaran ng ginawa mo CROSS PHANTOM.
Soon!!
We're going to get what is totally OURS. And that is. . . . the title of the second strongest gang group in the world. . . . the rank 2 in the underworld.
