Hunter's POV:
"Gusto niyong maglaro ng tagu-taguan?" Rinig kong sabi ni Kiss. Nakatalikod siya sa akin ngunit ramdam ko base sa tono ng pananalita niya, bad mood na siya. Sa tingin ko'y kanina niya pa alam na may sumusunod sa kanya. Ang talas ng pakiramdam. but what does she mean? I guess, I am not the only one who keeps on following her. Tsk. Wala na akong magawa kundi lumabas nalang sa pinagtataguan ko. Sakto naman ang paglabas din ng dalawa pang taong hindi ko inaasahan. Owww, I am not expecting them. It was Franco and Philip from the two departments. I smirk at them as we glare at each other. Franco is smiling while he's looking at us. Maybe he looks good and innocent for the most of you but, he's actually a devil. A devil in disguise. Ibinaling ko naman ang tingin ko kay Philip. He's also known as a good guy in their group but, i know he's also hiding something. Hmm. This is so exiting.
"Mmmm. Do you already want to die?" Her cold voice interrupted us and made us shiver. Pare-pareho kaming napatingin sa kanya nang magsalita siya. I don't know why but there's really something odd about her. I felt fear but there's no time to be scared.
"K-kiss, I know that we're not in good terms. But, I followed you because I want to help you. I know a safe place where you can stay temporarily as you find your way back to your world. Alam ko naman kasi na ayaw mo kaming makasama." Saad ni Franco na nagpataas ng kilay ko (PS.di siya bakla. lol). Anong pinagsasasabi ng gag*ng 'yan? May masama ba siyang plano kay Kiss? Tsk. Subukan niya lang.
"Don't listen to him Kiss. You can't fully trust him. Maybe he's into something. Sumama ka nalang sa akin. Bumalik na tayo sa department namin. Kyle is waiting for you." Sabi naman ni Philip at ewan ko ba pero nagmukha siyang maamong tupa habang sinasabi 'yon. He's faking it for sure. Tsk.
"You said that I can't be trusted. Ikaw pa kaya." Franco said to Philip while still smiling like an idiot. Sige, ipagpatuloy niyo lang 'yan. Kiss doesn't look interested to the both of you.
"Ikaw, bakit mo 'ko sinusundan?" Napalunok ako ng sarili kong laway (malamang) nang mabaling sa akin 'yong atensiyon niya. Relax Hunter. Chill.
"Hmmm. Wala lang. Gusto ko lang. Dapat ba laging may dahilan?" Sagot ko sa kanya at nginitian pa siya. But deep inside, sobrang bilis na ng tibok ng puso ko. Parang anytime aatakihin ako. Ano bang nangyayari sa akin? I'm not like this before. I was cool but now, parang naging hot ako. lol djwklang. kinakabahan talaga ako lalo na't wala paring emosyon ang babaeng kaharap namin ngayon. Is this our end?
"All of you..." Sabi nito at nagsimulang humakbang papalapit sa amin.
"Sleep." And with a blink of an eye, nakita ko nalang siyang nasa harapan ko sabay diin ng leeg ko. I don't know what happened, pero nakita ko pa ang sunod-sunod na pagbagsak naming tatlo at tuluyan ngang nilamon ng dilim ang paligid ko.

Her Point of view:
Life is unfair. Nauna pa silang matulog kaysa sakin. Hmmm. May isa pa pala. Tsk.
"Show yourself, tsk." I said as I remain myself calm. I badly wants to sleep. But I also want to eat. =_=°
"*clap clap clap* That was a good show. You're really awesome." The idiot said while he slowly walks towards me. He was still the mysterious guy I met last time. I can't see his whole face because of his mask but I know, he's smiling. Tsk.
"Where's the old hag?" Nagtitimpi kong saad. I need to see that old hag. I know that he's the only one who can answer all my questions. Alam ko ding siya ang may alam kung paano ako makakauwi. Kailangan ko nang madaliin ito. Mamamatay ako pag puro lalaki ang makakasalamuha ko. Tsk.
"Come with me." He said as he offer his hand to me. Tsk.
"You don't have to lend your hand. I can walk. I will just follow---" naputol ang sasabihin ko ng magulat akong nasa harapan ko na siya. He pulled me to him as if he was hugging me tight. What da heck is he doing!? Did these guy instantly fall for me? lol.
"Bitaw." Mariin kong saad. Arggghhh. I can't deal with this sh*t anymore. Agad niya naman akong binitawan at ngayo'y nakaharap na siya sa akin. Even though he's wearing a mask, I must say that he is a good looking guy. He have this deep blue eyes that can hypnotize a normal girl. Wait, why I am describing him?
"I've changed my mind. Don't come with me. I may be his servant but please don't think of me as your enemy. Kalimutan mo nalang na nagkita tayo." He said as he turn his back on me and started to walk like nothing happened. Nani!?
"Wait, what do you mean? Who really are you?" I don't know what's his intention but he can't just walk out like that. Ano yun!? Yayakap yakap sa akin 'tas aalis na parang walang nangyari? I still have many questions in my mind. He might know the answers to it. May koneksiyon siya kay tanda kaya baka may alam siya kung paano ako makakauwi!
"I'm doing you a favor so just thank me. Tsk." wow!? Ang bilis niya namang mag switch ng mood. tsk
"Gag* ka pala---"
"I'm L. Sayonara Kiss~chan." At sa isang iglap nawala siya na parang bula. Tsk. I hate him.

Franco's point of view:
Naalimpungatan ako ng makaramdam ako ng pamamanhid sa aking mga kamay at paggalaw ng mga nasa gilid ko. What just happened?
"Mabuti naman at gising kana. Tsk. Wag kang maging pabigat at tulungan mo kaming tanggalin tong pagkakatali sa atin." Saad ni Philip sa akin. Now I realized that we have been tied by kiss. Kaya pala namamanhid yung kamay ko dahil mahigpit ang pagkakatali neto. It was tied in my back same with the two. Pati mga pala namin at nakatali. May tali din ang mga baywang namin na siyang nagkokonekta sa among tatlo. Great, para kaming mga uod na nabudburan ng asin. Iba-iba ang ginagawa nila Hunter at Philip matanggal lang yung tali na nasa kamay nila. Basta kayo nalang mag-imagine. Ang hirap eexplain. -_-
"Gising na pala kayo." Saad ng misteryosong babae na mukhang kadarating lang. She was holding a plastic bag at sigurado akong pagkain ang laman nun. Teka, saan siya kumuha ng pagkain?
"Kalagan mo na kami Kiss. Please?" Pagmamakaawa ni Philip ngunit hindi siya neto pinansin. She was busy filling her stomach. Hindi malayo ang aming pagitan. She was sitting in a sofa infront of us at kitang kita ko kung paano niya kinain na dalawang kutsara/subo lang ang corned beef na de lata. Ganyan ba talaga kumain ang mga babae!?
"Kiss I'm feeling hungry right now. Pwede mo ba akong subuan?" Hunter said seductively. Wait!? Where the heck did i got that word? And was that really Hunter!? Ughhh. Is that her effect on us? I don't know but I felt a part of me heated up as I saw her drinking her water. Her reds lips were still wet so she wiped it using his thumb. Hindi ko alam pero pinagpawisan ako. What the hell is happening to me? Tinignan niya kami at may kinuha siya sa dala dala niyang plastic bag kanina. Lumapit siya sa amin at binigyan kami ng tag-iisang... Saging. -_- binalatan niya ito at isinubo sa amin ng buo. Hindi ko alam kung magpapasalamat ako dahil sa ginawa niya o maiinis. She's playing with us huh? Tsk. Wala na akong nagawa kundi lunukin yun ng buo.
"HAHAHAHAHA. Your faces are epic." Did I really heard her laugh? She laughed?
"Well anyways, galingan niyo naman diyan. Para ganyan lang hindi pa kayo makatakas? Akala ko ba malalakas kayo? Sige matutulog muna ako. At kung gusto niyo pang mabuhay, DON'T DISTURB MY SLEEP." She said seriously as she mentioned the word sleep. All of us nodded as she glared at us. Tumalikod na siya sa amin at nagsimulang maglakad patungo sa sofang pagtutulugan niya. But as she walks, there was something that captured our eyes.
"K-kiss... There's a b-bloodstain in the back of your pants." Philip said.
"A bloodstain in your butt exactly." Hunter added.
