Previously on T.U.S.O.U

"Magic Beam is a powerful power, do you perhaps intend to kill my twin?"

Nagulat naman kaming lahat ng magsalita si Zelda. Napatingin naman ako sa kaniya nang gulat.

Naalala ko naman ang binulong sa akin kanina.

"N-no! I wouldn't kill Sera! Never!" sigaw ko rito.

"Zelda? Why are you accusing Princess Abi ba? That Magic Beam is for the thunder attacks kaya." depensa naman ni Anais.

"But that Magic Beam is really powerful, did you see how big the impact was?" ani naman ni Greg kaya lahat sila ay napatingin sa akin.

"Are you planning to kill me, Princess Abigail?"

Princess Abigail (Kyra)

Nanatili lang akong tahimik ng ilang segundo, hindi ko masagot ang kanilang katanungan.

"Princess Abi-" napatigil sa pagsasalita si Sera nang may pumasok sa pinto.

Tumingin kaming lahat roon at nakakita kami ng isang babae.

"The Magic Beam is sure powerful but I have to disagree when you accused the Princess of Emberspear," ani nito habang papalapit sa amin.

If I were to describe her outfit, she's wearing an emerald green dress.

Green and curly ang ibabang buhok nito, gano'n din ang mata niya.

Maputi rin siya at mayroon din itong flower na korona, may dala rin siyang long twisted wand na may nakapalibot na twining stem.

May iba pang kapatid si Prince Dione?

"Grandma Felisha," ani ni Prince Dione kaya naman nagulat ako lalo.

Grandma?! Sa itsura niyang 'yan? Isa siyang lola?

"I don't think the Princess of Emberspear intend to kill you, my dear Sera."

"Sa kaniya na rin mismo nanggaling, she can't control her powers yet you started a combat without her knowing."

"Of course her power will come up like that, ikaw ba naman atakihin ng mga thunder ewan ko na lang kung anong mangyayari sa iyo kapag hindi ka dumepensa."

I am really shocked by her words, she's listening to our conversation earlier?

"Grandma Feli! You were eavesdropping! You said na you will go outside muna for a walk," ani ni Anais sa kanya.

"I did? Oh, Haha! Sorry not sorry."

Even her attitude can keep up with us!

Tumingin naman ito sa akin bigla.

"You are so beautiful! I'm Felisha Forestpeak, mother of Flora Forestpeak and a grandmother of these children," ani nito sa akin at hinalikan ako sa pisnge.

"A-abigail Emberspear is my name po," ani ko at nag-bow sa kaniya.

"Grandma Feli! Why are you calling us children ba? We're not children kaya we are teens na." reklamo ni Anais sa likod ko.

"But you act like one, Anais." sabay nilang sabi ni Sera.

Nagkatinginan naman silang dalawa at tumawa. Bumaling naman ang tingin ko kay Zelda na masama ang tingin sa akin.

I feel something off about her.

"Dude! Why are you so quiet? Huwag mong sabihin na dinamdam mo yung sinabi ko?" ani sa akin ni Sera kaya napatingin ako sa kaniya.

"Dude, I'm joking, I know you can't do that to me. We're friends, right?"

Friends...

"By the way, how's your condition? Do you feel any pain?" tanong nito sa akin.

Umiling naman ako bilang sagot.

"I don't feel any pain right now po, thanks to, umm..."

Inilibot ko ang paningin ko at tinignan kung may mahahanap akong isang nagpagaling sa akin.

"I'm the one who treated you," ani ni Queen Felisha kaya naman napatingin ako sa kaniya.

I'm getting dumber and dumber day by day, Forestpeaks are known as great healers! Why did I forget that?

"Thank you so much!" ani ko agad sa kaniya.

Kung hindi dahil sa kanya ay sigurado akong hindi kami maayos ngayon ni Sera.

Kasalukuyan akong naka-upo sa upuan na ginawa ni Prince Dione noong una kong punta rito.

Pinapanood ko sila na nag-aral ng kanilang mga spells. Nangunguna naman sa pagtuturo si Queen Felisha.

Si Sera naman ay nasa tabi ko at nakatali ang kaniyang bewang sa upuan para hindi ito makawala.

"Dude, I want to practice so bad!" reklamo nito sa akin.

"I want too Sera but, Queen Felisha said we have to rest. Hindi biro ang nangyari sa atin kanina, be patient."

"Bukas makakapag-practice kana ulit, baka lumala lalo ang kondisyon mo imbis na gumaling," sagot ko na lang sa kanya.

Naglabas naman ito ng buntong hininga atsaka umayos ng upo.

"Ang gaan ng loob ko sayo," ani nito sa akin.

"Hindi ka kagaya ng iba kong kapatid na sobrang yayabang," sabi pa nito at tingin sa akin.

"Hindi lang sila ang mga kapatid mo?" ani ko at turo kila Prince Dione.

Umiling naman siya sa akin.

"Our father has so many affairs with other woman and unlike my other step sisters and brother, this family is the best we could get along." kwento nito sa akin.

"Dude, you're lucky your family don't have an affair. It's really hard for us, especially for Zelda," ani nito kaya naman napatingin ako kay Zelda na ngayon ay sinesermonan ni Queen Felisha.

"She's an introvert, being an introvert and shy person makes people bully her more."dagdag pa nito.

"Maayos naman ang pakikitungo ng iba sa akin, mayroon din naman na hindi, dahil nga sa ugali ko."

"Ano bang magagawa ko eh kung mas magaling ako sa kanila."

She's being confident again.

"I only did that to prove myself and I know Zelda's trying to improve herself too," ani nito at tingin sa akin.

No Sera, in fact I am not that lucky. I'm an introvert person too, I never have 'friends' before Chris came.

Being an introvert makes people bully me more too, it's just that I'm in a different story.

The real Abigail is lucky,not me.

"You don't wanna see what's the environment we grew up," ani pa nito.

Nakita ko naman na nalungkot ang mukha niya, she's trying to prove herself to other for them to like her.

She's the exact opposite of her twin, alam ko na sobrang hirap noon para sa kaniya na siya tatanggapin at ang kapatid niya hindi.

"But you were still lucky,"

"You're lucky to have your twin by your side, you're lucky to find not just a family but also a friend in your life," ani ko at turo kila Prince Dione.

"You are a strong Princess, I can see you will rule this place sometimes," ani ko at ngiti.

"Prince Dione is so lucky if she marry someone like you," ani nito kaya napatingin ulit ako sa kaniya.

Why would he be lucky?

"You're beautiful, you're caring, you're kind and you're smart. Lahat na nasa iyo." papuri nito sa akin.

"I'm pretty sure you have a lots of friends."

Yes, lahat nasa akin... sa mundong ito.

Pero sa mundo ko, iilan iyan sa mga wala ako. Princess Abigail is really lucky.

Nagulat na lang ako ng may marinig ako snap ng isang bagay, napatingin naman ako sa bewang nito at nakita ko na nasira na nito ang nakalagay sa bewang niya.

"Yes, Finally!" ani niya at tayo mula sa pagkaka-upo niya.

"Nice topic we got there, Princess Abi! Hope we can talk more soon. I'm gonna go now," ani nito sa akin at takbo papalayo.

"Hey, Sera! I told you to rest, you are such a stubborn child!" rinig kong sigaw ni Queen Felisha sa kanya.

Nagsimula naman silang maghabulan, ang masasabi ko lang dito ay goodluck sa kanila.

Thank you for trusting me, Sera.

"I guess you recovered now," ani naman ni Prince Dione habang papalapit sa akin.

Umusog naman ako sa kina-uupuan ko para maka-upo ito.

"I'm not that badly injured," sagot ko sa kaniya.

"Sobrang close kayo ni Sera, kanina nakita ko kayong nag-uusap."

So he's looking at us the whole time?

Hindi na lang ako sumagot pa at nanatiling tahimik, Sera trust me even though I almost kill her.

Pero ano nga ba ang narinig kong bumulong sa akin kanina? Sino ba iyon? Siya ba ang pumatay kay Prince Dione?

"I knew it," ani nito kaya napatingin ako sa kaniya.

Kumunot naman ang noo ko, he knew what?

"I knew you were lying," ani nito kaya naman kinabahan ako.

May hint ba siya na gusto kong patayin si Sera? Pinagsu-suspetsahan niya na ba ako?

"I knew you were lying when you say you're fine," ani nito sa akin kaya naman nagpahinga ako ng maluwag sa loob ko.

"You aren't fine, your eyes don't lie, Princess Abi," ani nito at tingin sa akin.

"You know, if something is bothering you, you can talk to me."

Teka? Alam niya ba 'yong tungkol kay King Feather?

"Open up and talk to me, I'll be right by your side, listening."

But I can't tell you what's on my mind. Tumingin naman ako sa ibaba.

"I would love to let you know that I'm here, always."

Why is he doing this? He's trusting me even though we just met yesterday.

Why is he like this?

"Do..."

"Do you believe that I wanted to kill Sera, just like Zelda told me?" ani ko pero hininaan ko ang boses ko.

"No, that's ridiculous! You can't kill someone. You don't look like you can kill someone."

Napatango na lang ako bilang sagot.

"Dione! Come back here! We are not done training some spells!" sigaw naman sa di kalayuan ni Queen Felisha.

Halata mo naman na hingal na hingal na ito, kakahabol siguro kay Sera.

"In the world of Zayeania! Why does your mother always like guys who has children?" ani nito kaya naman napatawa kami.

"I'll go now, let's see each other tomorrow."

Ngumiti lang ako dito at pinanood siyang makalayo sa akin.

Innocent face with a killer smile and a devil brain.

It's better to stay safe, it's impressive and impossible not to fall for them.

DAY 1 OF TRAINING

"5 spells in 4 weeks of training. I can do this!"

As far as I can remember, Princess Abigail is a fast learner.

I'm sure I can complete and masters those five spells within a month.

"Teleportation Spell." basa ko sa papel na nasa harapan ko.

Tumingin naman ako kay Queen Felisha at tumango ito sa akin.

Nag-suggest ito na siya ang titingin sa akin kapag nagp-practice na ako.

Si Queen Flora naman ay nakabalik na sa kastilo nito at kasalukuyang nagpapahinga.

Natandaan ko naman ang sinabi ni Queen Felisha bago ako pumasok sa designated area.

'Tips on how to do the Teleportation Spell?' ani nito at tumango lang ako.

'Hmm...to do the spell, you must focus on the place where you want to go or send a determinate object or being.'

Hindi pala madali ito sa inaakala ko.

'Don't worry, I'm going to help you.'

Naglapag naman ito ng isang mansanas sa di kalayuan na lugar.

"If you can switch position with that apple, means you pass," ani nito sa akin.

Tinignan ko naman ang direksyon ng apple, six feet ang layo nito sa akin.

Huminga muna akong malalim, kailangan mapunta ako sa pwesto ng apple.

Nang makalma na ako ay pumikit ako at isinara ang dalawa kong kamay.

Narinig ko naman ang tunog ng mga sparkles kaya nalaman ko na gumagana at nagsisimula na ang powers ko.

3rd Person P.O.V

Princess Abigail's hands begin to glow.

Everyone was just staring at her and waiting for what would happen next.

*TING

And at that sound, she suddenly disappears from her place.

Prince Dione was about to leave when the Queen stopped him.

"Let us not interfere," she told him.

They waited a few seconds and see that she come back.

But in her former position.

Princess Abigail opened her eyes to see if she and the apple had swapped places.

But unfortunately not, she holds her head and gradually lost her balance.

That's the effect of the teleportation spell on the first use.

Before the princess could fell the prince had already used his telekinesis power and caught her.

The princess turned her gaze to the queen and shook her head meaning she did not pass.

Six days passed and she still could not cast the Teleportation spell.

In her second week of training, she tried her second spell and it was the Crystal Imprisonment Spell.

A kind of spell that can bind, imprison, or otherwise stop objects by using crystal. 

She did it easily, in just three days she was able to perform and master the Crystal Spell.

On her third week of training, she tries to perform the Mind Delving Spell.

A spell that lets the user enter the mind of a subject.

She tries to collab with Princess Zelda who has control of animals.

She first tries the spell on little animals like ants and bugs.

Day by day, the subject is getting bigger and harder. From a small creature to a big creature than her fellow human.

She tries to master the two other spells but Queen Felisha suggests that she must master those three spells first.

On her last week of training, she perfectly cast the three spells which are the Teleportation spell, Mind Delving Spell, and the Crystal Imprisonment spell.

"You've improved, Princess Abigail! You can now master those three spells, I am proud of you," Queen Felisha told her

If it wasn't for her guidance, Princess Abigail wouldn't get this far.

"Thank you Queen Felisha for your time and effort. Let's meet again soon," she said and wave at her.

The Queen went inside her chariot and wave for the last.

She was going back to her home. Princess Abigail has a big smile on her lips, she's grateful to met someone like her.

She is really happy now, now that she can show her father how she improved! How she became stronger than she is before.

But of course, bad things always happen. The smiles on her lips faded when she heard of terrible news.
