Abyss Of Silent Heroes 49 Edmund And Guida's Wedding

George went back to the house and sought her permission for a drink.

" Just don't overdrink, okay?"

" Sure." He smiled and left her while closing tightly all doors.

An hour after, while hearing the cheerful moments of the celebration she happened to watch a lighted part to one of the villagers' houses and she thoroughly observed a man, transferring from one house to the other. Blurry, but she could only see his silhouette horrendously cutting heads of people. Magee rubbed her eyes then get back to seeing it. The man knocks every door and since he'd part of the village so everu household knew him better. At least she had witnessed for only 3, but he seemed harvested the households after minutes so Magee back off and whispered to herself.

" Ina! amok ini ( Mama! this is amok - killing more than 3 persons and seemed simply harvesting deaths). She thought maybe because of the traumatic experience of that man had been. With do much tension, she right away wore her military uniform, bkack shoes and cap then ran to get first her family and still terribly trembling while holding her sword.

"They're all down, my goodness. George? Albrecht? Baldur?" She desperately whispered.

Since it was dark, she tried to one on one checked them and finally found George first - asleep.

She heavily pulled him first like a log heading to the second secret cave facing the sea, opened it with a smaller slit that they could just pa.s.s through and left him leaning on a sack. She ran back holding her sword and still hearing some metal cut on heads. eventually, she found Baldur and grabbed him towards George as she was filled with sweats all around. Her tremor was intense but looking for her second brother Albrecht was a bit difficult. Still shaking in fear but she was gratified seeing Albrecht filled with vomit beside the chair. Regatdless of the smell, she pulled him to the safer cave, slowly since she already saw the man in 'amok' had finished everyone in the houses and he was just relaxingly traveling heading to the army and guerilla's banquet. Magee had successfully place his eldest brother in, so she closed it carefully. She was teary eyed hearing the chopping of the man on each body he pa.s.sed through at the banquet but to her relief, the soldiers guarding the secret entrance cave have seen him doing that act, so they shot and hit his right arm. He ran while Henry and Amado (guards on duty) sued him but he was heading to Magee's direction. The man was a bit taller so she hide behind a smaller tree and when he pa.s.sed by a meter away, she ran and stabbed him from his back. Magee knelt on the ground and cried while listening to the man's dying request.

" Ne, kadtuhi kanak anak ngadto... Gabok, yagkalintura idto...wa ko da kitai, iso pa idto ne, lumon sidto pigpatay isab nilan...saang mga hapon ngawon... yaga inom." (Ne, visit my child who has a fever there in Gabok. Haven't seen my child, still so young, the other sibling was also killed by them, those j.a.panese soldiers over there...drinking.)" Then his words were gone with the fogs around.

When Henry arrived he wanted to shoot him again but Amado blocked his way.

"He's maybe dead. We better save our ammo."

Despite her exasperating experience with a psychologically driven murderer but she got up and removed her sword out of his body. Her tears still flow but told Amado to surely check his pulse. After a while, Amado confirmed him DEAD.

" Henry, Amado, they're piled up of dead people under that tamarind tree. Let's try to check to some we could still save." Then she heavily cried.

Henry, go up to the house, get Albrecht's flashlight and emergency kit in that room fronting the balcony. Amado, please start removing the gravely murdered on sides and those who are still breathing please start saving them.

When the two left she ran and went back to the second cave. It was very dark so she lighted the candle on the wall.

" George! George she whispered him."

" Mag...where are we?" something bad came up, please help us outside. Before you get out, you listen first and don't panic. Breathe in, breathe out and go back to your senses.

She was shaking while recalling the memories and sweating all over her body.

" Mag, am I not dreaming? He killed almost everyone due to a wrong vengeance? Can you slap me twice? you mean almost all the people we saved are almost dead?"

" Yes, yes....huhu! yes, they're dead."

He stood up and ran towards the tamarind tree and proceeded to the houses blankly. He knelt on the ground in front of the houses and cried. Someone got out alive, its Fr. Matias.

" George, I thought you're all dead. I was in the comfort room due to food allergy and have heard the screams of people side by side. Its Balaslao, his mind went wrong after hearing the celebration. His child was one of the captives. Where is he right now?"

" He's already dead Fr. Matias." Magee answered.

" Oh G.o.d, peace be with his soul. Forgive him." The priest looked up to heaven.

" George hurriedly returned to the tamarind tree and found 47 dead soldiers and guerillas with 28 civilians. He cried again on his knees and Magee comforted him.

" I had the same feeling when I saw with my eyes the actual killing and it even made me so scared but I was thinking of saving whoever I can grab with. I have only saved the three of you." Then she cried and collapsed.

" Mag...Magee! He carried her back to the house and put some towel on her back. She's still unconscious so he called Amado to help him. When Amado checked her pulses he said there's nothing wrong and she was just very tired.

" Who would have lingered this far after pulling three big soldiers on the riverside and from stabbing a murderer with a sword. It was so traumatic on her. Let's just allow her to relax, Sir.

He left her in the house and ran to tge second cave and awakened the siblings.

" Brothers, wake up!" George breathlessly oriented them the scenario outside.

" Magee pulled us going here, one by one though she told Henry and Amado that she left us on the riverside. She also stabbed the murderer. Right now she's unconscious and in the house. I want you Albrecht to stay by her side and Baldur, you go with me and let's help Amado and Henry in identifying the corpses. Father Matias is right there too."
