Chapter 4 Altraun

Chapter 3

I lay my body on the bed. The result of the courage test is being discussed by the captain of each houses.

Come to think of it. Napabangon ako bigla.

Hindi ko man lang nakita si Jeremy na nanduon, nasaan kaya iyon?.

I can't sleep yet, at hindi pa rin ako nakakapagpalit ng damit, ilang oras na rin akong nakikipagtitigan sa kisame.

The rooms alotted for every students is one man room, we can't share to anyone and the space is for one person only.

But this rooms are for temporary, the Vice Principal said that we will go to our house once the giving of color is done.

I straight up, kelangan ko na maligo.

I open the cabinet where I can see different clothes for man or woman, natural they will provide for this because they didn't allow us to bring anything except to what they give.

I get the black halter top and a black leather shorts and walk towards the bathroom.

I halted on my way when I heard a knock, I can't see who's knocking because I can't easily put my cameras here lalo na't hindi ko kilala ang mga kasama ko at hindi ko alam ang patakaran dito. I can't risk it.

I once tried to infiltrate the system of the school but luckily I got kick out and receive a message that if I do it again, the messenger said they hunt me down.

I'm not scared but I can't be shown yet.

"Yes"I answered when I opened the door, my hand that is behind the door plays the knife we've given to us. I smile sweetly to the girl outside.

"I am Koi Cervante, from the house of white, and you're been summoned by the Captain"

"Okay, I'll follow"

"No, I'll company you. Captain's order"

I throw the knife on the sofa, and open the door wide.

I let her enter and go to the bathroom and do my thing.

It's 4 pm when I'm done preparing. Koi is still there at the door, standing straight.

"Let's go"she said when she noticed I'm already finished.

When we're walking in the hallway, I am the only that have a chaperone. The other walks by themself.

"Bakit kelangan sunduin pa ako?"I ask to clear my mind.

"You'll know when we get there"she only said then walk. I follow her with the other students.

We are heading to the hall.

Infront of the hall, I saw students giving ties to other. Some are happy and some looks sad.

Hindi kami tumigil sa harap ng hall kung saan nagaganap ang pagbibigay ng tie. We continue to walk until the place where the ten captains are.

I'm sure my face shows confusion, bakit wala pa rin akong tie?, Samantalang ung iba meron na.

All the captains are staring at me.

"Cap, here she is"Koi said and moved her hand to me, I can hear amusement in her voice. No one mind her and still staring at me.

The Vice President is nowhere to be seen.

"Dapat siya sa Gray nga, ano bang pinaglalaban mo Altraun"

"Nothing, she's gonna be in my house"

"Argg, pano ko siya papayagan sa iyo kung ayaw mo naman sabihin kung bakit, malay mo ba tyamba lang ang nagawa niya"he said while messing his hair.

"They are debating where house you'll be. Is it Gray or White?, You can voice out your choice"she whisper to me but I rather them decide it.

"Clee!, Si Altraun nga"

"Your reason Altraun"the one wearing gold tie said. The highest. The face of Atraun calm down and ready to confess hindi katulad kanina na parang handa na siyang magbato ng kutsilyo papunta kay Gravin.

"I know, you see that. I won't elaborate it"Altraun said, I thought she will explain.

"See! Anong reasoning yan?, kahit saan dalhin talo ka"

"Para walang away, sa akin na lang siya. Welcome to the house of Orange"singit nung babaeng naka full orange outfit.

"Shut up, Kate"banta ni Altraun, Kate laughed to herself and zip her mouth. She also raised her hands.

"I let you decide Kort"Cleevan said then walk away.

"Aish, tumatakas lang siya sa gulo eh"bulong ni Kort na umabot sa pandinig ko.

"Di ko alam kung swerte ka ba dahil pinag-aagawan ka o hindi"Koi said to me.

"Mabuti pa, daanin natin to sa paraang magkakasundo tayo. Let's play"sabi ni Gravin.

I mentally smile, they will play and that means they will show their abilities, I would love to see that.

"Let's play tossed coin"dagdag niya.

My mouth fell. The hell, tossed coin.

My mind can't accept their play but they position theirselves.

Magkaharap si Altraun at si Gravin, nasa kanilang gitna si Kort na may hawak na coin.

"Ready na ba kayo?"he said then hold the coin.

Seconds passed and I noticed that Altraun and Gravin are staring at each other.

Kort tossed the coin but before he catch it, Gravin raised his hands.

"Okay, okay panalo ka na. Nakakainis talaga"he mumbled the last words.

Altraun smile triumply.

"Next time, be sure you can win"

"Hmp"he said then walk to their line.

Altraun come to me.

"Welcome to my house, Ms. Ysabella Swinder. Pleasured to meet you"she handed out her hand.

I accept her hand. Long time.

I smile to her. I know she understand that.

"Let me accompany you to our house"

"The meeting will start now Altraun"baritonong boses ang nagsalita, it was Cleevan.

Oh! he's back.

"Right"she sigh and face Koi. "Koi, show her room"she continue then go to the other captains.

Koi bowed her head and pulled my hands towards the exit. I felt their gaze at my back.

The moment we close the door, they start talking to each other.

"The house of White, is one of the most powerful here. Especially when Cap Altraun became the leader, she's capable being the top one but she like the house of White"Koi said, patuloy lang kami sa paglalakad. Wala nang estudyante ang palakad lakad,ang tanging makikita ay mga puno at bench,also the ground that has green grass.

"The house of White only has 9 members including the Captain and us, but we can still beat the other house. That's how powerful the Captain is"

I smirked mentally. Nice, Alt.

"Everytime she'll have the invitation to be on the higher up, she said she's waiting. That's why she's in the white."

We stop on the building with 10 floors it has a classical with a mixed of modern design.

The color is cream white. It also has some hanging plants and the grass are crawling on its surface.

Koi faced me.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, your highness"Koi said then bowed her head a bit.

I erased immediately the shock that registered on my face and get my knife on my back. I put the sharp part on her neck but she didn't move, she didn't even blink.

"It's also a pleasure to be killed by you"she said and bowed her head, I pulled the knife or else it will cut her neck.

"Who are you?"I ask then put back my knife.

"I am Koi Andrez Cervante, one of your servant's daughter"she bowed again this time she kneeled on the ground with one knee high placing her other arm.

"Stand"I said.

She stand up straight.

"Let's talk later with Altraun, I need to sleep"I said then walked passed by her.
