Nivo's plan before reaching Mt. Enigma."Do you also notice what I notice?" Nivo asked after flipping the cigarette he was smoking. They are currently on the terrace of their Vynx mansion and are observing what is below.In the situation of their residence, it is obvious that the twins did not live in an ordinary family. That is to say, the Aviles family is really rich."Notice what?" Bax asked. It seems that Bax has no idea what Nivo is referring to. Well, he also has no idea."Yes, don't you wonder why we didn't even notice from the looks of Vynx that they are so rich?" Nivo clarified. He thought about it too but he just didn't pay attention to it."They're not just arrogant. I know Vynx, it's really quiet so it's impossible to talk about their property," Bax answered."Even so, Vyze is talkative," Nivo reasoned."Even though Vyze is talkative if she has a different inclination to talk. Her mouth is full of black and pink.""You really don't get what I mean." Nivo scratching his hea
No corner of Enigma Mountain can avoid sharp thorns. But when Vyze glided in it she didn't seem to think about those things anymore. They went down to where Vynx could possibly be.They see grass that seem to have been hit and possibly passed by Vynx's body when he rolled down."Vynx!" They never stopped calling him. Her cry grow louder even more."Vynx! Please answer if you can hear us!" Wynce called and he slid down."Vynx! Where are you?" she also cried depressed. If there are people victimizing this mountain there is a possibility that they will be heard but for them they don't care. What's important to them is to see Vynx right away. Maybe he is suffering and what's worse is that he might run out of blood."Vynx—ahh!""Vyze!" Wynce almost stumbled towards Vyze after he got up from the slip. The direction of the two is opposite because they separated searching that part of the mountain."What happened?" asked Mamo who was just to his left with Uncle Bilyo and was also down in a pa
"N-No! This can't be!" Colthen stood up, and almost stumbled towards the gate. He grabbed the big lock and tried to open it, but it was already closed. "W-We can't stay here! We can't!" Now he's going crazy. There are tears to wipe, there is sweat, and there is a lock to open."It's me, get out of there! I'll open—I'll try!" Wynce pushed Colthen further and then fiddled with the butt of the lock. After a while he put a cape in his pocket and looked at them. "I-I need a hairpin!"They each act differently. Her hair is not tied or even clipped at all because it is just short. With Vyze it is long and it is also a cape on the head. "Shit! Shit! I don't have a pin!" Vyze also exclaimed in restless."Even just a wire! On a bracelet! On a necklace! Or on an earring—to pierce this!" Wynce shouted.She saw her bracelet. She took it off because it was made of silver. "T-This..." Her hands were trembling as she handed it to Wynce. It's even more startling because Mamo's screams are getting loud
They walked around, they wanted to say thanks because they found another gate but just like the one they saw before, it was also closed. Colthen bore Yvaine's weight. No matter how tired he is, it's okay for him, as long as they can take her to where she will be safe."I'm not going to wonder why no one makes it out of this mountain alive," Wynce spoke again, still supporting on Vyze who was stumbling. "If the wall is this high and the gate is closed, who can get out? Those trapped here might just starve to death—""We're inside Wynce. Maybe you're forgetting that we're the ones trapped here," Mamo scolded and his gait was not going well. "Are you saying we, too, can't get out alive?""I-I'm going to die laughing at that." Everyone turned to look at Colthen. His speech was accented because he was lifting Yvaine and was sweating profusely. "They chased the treasure? Then they couldn't get out either?" He still laughed even though he was out of breath. "It's funny yet it's a tragic scen
"C-Colthen! I only did what I thought would help her. I love Yvaine like my daughter! I love you—all of you! I have no intention of torturing—""But you did it! You did it! She's already had a hard time!" As Colthen landed Yvaine's head on the rock. Mamo backed away because Colthen didn't seem to know what he was thinking anymore. His eyes were glaring with anger that was still filled with tears. "And you didn't feel sorry! I didn't even see you feel sorry!"Mamo jumped into the water. Suddenly Chaleigh didn't know what to do and her hands were shaking, holding Colthen's hand. "Don't touch me! I might put you before her—""Colthen!" Vyze yelled and her lips trembling. "What will you do-""I will kill him!""You can do it?!" She also screamed even though she was scared. "Hold you too—""I don't care! I'm mad Chaleigh, I'm mad!" He screamed loudly as he grabbed her neck. "You don't know how I feel. You don't know how much I hurt, Chaleigh!" The trembling of his jaw and the grinding of h
"Vynx!" She quickly stood up as Vynx stepped back until his figure became a blur in the darkness. "Where are you going? Vynx, something happened to Mamo!" She wanted to cry, but Vynx continued to walk. "Vynx?""Vynx? How are you? A-Are you okay?" Even though these twins are always fighting, Vyze still can't hide her worry. She also stood looking up at Vynx above and tears were currently falling. "W-What are you doing there?""What happened to him?" Wynce asked in a whisper so they looked at each other."M-Maybe his wound still hurts—he'll find a place to rest," she just said to continue the positive thinking.Later his figure walked up. "Vynx!" Wynce called."I think he will look for the people who hurt him. He seems angry and that's why he retreated because he didn't see the three men he worked with," said Uncle Bilyo who also looked up."Then he couldn't do them alone," Wynce said firmly."L-Let's follow him. He's not with anyone." After Vyze said that, she quickly ran up."Wash you
At the bottom of the mountain they continue to search Vynx. It was surprising because he suddenly appeared for a moment and disappeared again. They were going straight up and there seemed to be too many tall grasses blocking their path."Vynx!" Chaleigh could hardly even scream. She was panting so much but she didn't even bring water. They left their belongings in the river and the truth is that they haven't eaten yet. She could feel his stomach boiling and she hoped they could survive this night without food.Being so tired, Vyze decided to sit down. They want to continue but they couldn't bear tiredness anymore. "Can you still bear the fatigue?" Wynce asked sitting next to Vyze.She sat below them and Uncle Bilyo sat on her right."I'm hungry," Vyze complained and they both felt the same."We left our food on below," Wynce said.But one of them opened the bag. Yes bag, because Uncle Bilyo was only carrying a small bag and he was carrying it earlier when he went down into the water.
The dress of the priest-shaped rock itself is white in color and has a red tie hanging from its neck and falling over the chest down to the belly. There is a cross engraved on the left side of chest and it is tilted as if it is being worshipped.It is not man-made by the book. It was only found by the Filipino ancestors. Only its paint is man-made and it looks like it has been taken care of because if this paint has been around for a long time it is sure to have faded by now.Nivo circled behind it. There is an arch there with a beautiful design. Just like the one at the feet of the priest, there are also flowers surrounding it. Some of them are orchids, queen of the night and other types of flowers that they don't know."Someone is taking care of this place. It's obvious," he said and touched the stone image."I think it's a group," Nivo said."A group but the quiet one now.""Probably, it's Friday the 13th and it's still Holy Week. There's really no one here.""What if there is?" Za
1 YEAR LATER"Oh my god!" A loud scream echoed throughout the living room and when Chaleigh turned around she saw Vyze patting the two kids on either side of her arm as she ran. "Help!"Her brows knit together looking at her as she was currently talking to one of their friends."Why? What's happening to you?" she asked Vyze and briefly glanced at the two men who looked alike on the opposite couch where he was sitting who were both busy playing Mobile games.Vyze arranged to carry two kids but she accidentally dropped one—just slowly—and it was about to run towards Vynx and Vio but Vyze stopped him. "They pooped together!" Vyze yells causing her to let out a bubble of laugh. This is how difficult when you are taking care of twins. When it comes to pooping together you don't know which one of the two to take first."Vynx!" Vyze called. She choose Vynx because only Vynx has the ability to answer."Oh?" replied the twin brother but did not look at her. Still busy playing his phone."He
Suddenly the strong and cold wind blew even though they were inside a place she hadn't memorized. Maybe they were inside the path she saw earlier.The flames in the torch dancing causing the whole place becomes lighter and soon darker. Vio stopped what he was planning to do to her. He looked around in surprise and they all did the same.She felt Zaliyah moving and Wynce got up just in time and watched as Zaliyah rose up.Her long hair is blown by the wind. She stood up straight and faced Vio."Son..." Did she hear right? Zaliyah, called Vio a son? But Zaliyah went on, "You're not a bad person.""What's happening?" Marietha's footsteps were big approaching to them."Open your eyes, open your heart," Zaliyah continued."Who are you again inciting my son?" Marietha asked Zaliyah sarcastically.Zaliyah faced her and gave her a bad look. By now the strong wind had stopped blowing."My son, not yours, Marietta!" corrected Zaliyah.Marietha's eyes widened. "What the hell are you saying?""Th
Chaleigh landed in an unfamiliar place. It doesn't seem ordinary. Everything around her smokes and she can't see anything but only that thing."W-Where am I?" she asked in a whisper but her voice echoed.She was not inside the church as she last remembered. She passed out... She ran as fast as she can, remembering the last thing that happened. "Vyze? Bax? Wynce, where are you?"But no one answered. She continued to run as if this place had no boundaries."Vyze!"She didn't stop, she just sped up but the smoke around her didn't seem to change."Wynce! Bax!"The last thing she remembered, Bax caught Vynx's stab that was meant for her. After that she lost consciousness.So what place is she in?"Is anyone here?'Is it still part of Mt. Enigma?"Chaleigh..."She quickly faced behind. Her chest pounded when she saw the woman who always appeared on her.She stepped back says stammering, "W-Who are you?""I said don't let him go." The woman stepped closer causing her to continue back away.
The woman, looks like a large frame in the twins' house. She is the woman wearing the wedding dress that Vynx introduced to them as their mother.In other words, this girl..."M-Mom?" Is a mother of Vynx and Vyze. She walked straight in front of them and behind her followed about six people with tattoos on each right arm."A-Auntie?" Wynce whispered."You guys are too stubborn and you're still going here. I've sent several threats but you still haven't been brought in! Get them!" she ordered after stopping in front of them."M-Mom what does this mean?" Vyze asked as the two men approached to touch her but Wynce pushed one away."Auntie! What is this?! Why are you doing this?!" Wynce's veins almost popped out of his throat and on his forehead as he asked.The man stood up and Vyze's mother faced Wynce. Her face looks like Vyze's so it's not unlikely that they are mother and daughter, the only thing she doesn't understand is what's going on.Someone held her but Bax took off quickly. "L
From head to toe, there was no doubt who the person was in front of them now. He was standing and Nivo was on his feet with blood currently gushing from his mouth.They know who he is. From the shoes he wears, his pants and his red jacket..."V-Vynx?" Her lips trembled when she said his name.Right! Vynx! What they saw is Vynx who stabbed Nivo. Vynx is now the man in blood-stained clothes, carrying the stone shaped into a knife standing in front of them. His face had no emotion, just looking at them while they couldn't believe.Wynce with currently parted lips. His eyes widened as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing. And also Bax that is no different from Wynce's reaction. Uncle Bilyo is now obviously confused. Vyze with parted lips. Sweat and tears streamed down her face at the same time.While she? She didn't know if Vynx was still in front of her. It seemed like a different person and she couldn't feel the presence of the man she loved.Why is that? Everything in her dream c
"Nhie! Wake up, Nhie!" Nivo almost climbed the cruz. It wasn't that high that he was still touching Zaliyah's waist. Every word he uttered echoed. Maybe because of the depth of where they are.Viewed from the church steps. The altar can be seen in the center. On the left side you can see various images, on the right side you can see the cross where Zaliyah is and it is slightly behind the altar.There is a large stone that can be compared to a wall but it is not attached for another stone. If Chaleigh wasn't mistaken that way will go inside and she doesn't know what's in there.But she is currently standing next to the cross. Bax and Nivo are working on how to get Zaliyah out of there. Wynce and Uncle Bilyo are also helping and Zaliyah's hands are only tied with rope. It's easy to remove if they are properly positioned."Nhie! Wake up! I'm here, Nhie!" Nivo kept crying and trying to calm himself."W-Who did this to her?" Vyze asked and she heard her swallowing saliva."It looks like t
"Colthen!" Bax moved quickly and knelt down next to his lifeless friend. His hands trembled as he held it while his knees literally shook with trembling."C-Colthen! W-What happened, w-who did this?!"Wynce's light remained focused on them but his face was glistening with sweat. His lips parted as he watched Bax's crying to his friend's body fall asleep.Nivo's body trembled as he slowly approached Bax."I-Is he dead?" Vyze asked dejectedly and you could also notice the tremor in her voice due to shock and fear.Nivo's hands were shaking when he held Colthen's hand. After a while, he wiped off the sweat that seemed to be depressing."No! Colthen!" There Bax raised his head while crying. He hugged his friend's lifeless body and shouted the words, "Who did this to you?!"Chaleigh looked around while crying. When Bax looked up from where Colthen had come from she looked up too—even those with them. All they see are branches and leaves. It's just above where the moon can be seen.If someo
"Zaliyah!""Hello!""Zaliyah, Please answer! Where are you?""Nhie! Don't play pranks like this please!""Did I hear right?" Chaleigh asked in whisper to her companions. "Is Zaliyah missing?""Looks like you're not the only one looking for someone. It looks like they've also lost a friend," Uncle Bilyo commented.They just remained standing where they were. They waited for the two men to come and when he got close to them, Wynce deliberately aimed the cellphone flashlight at their faces.They immediately covered their faces with their arms—glaring in the light of Wynce's flashlight."Who's that?" Nivo asked and because of the light they didn't recognize them. When he heard his voice, her entire system tingled."Colthen? Is that you?" Bax asked. He had no idea that they would no longer with his bestfriend. She clenched her fists in anger.Nivo came even closer to see them better. "Take that away!" He demand as he got closer and shook the phone Wynce holding, luckily he didn't drop it.
