Abyss Of Silent Heroes - Chapter 149 Ordeal Underneath

Magee felt as if she’s holding the last winning card on her palm after finding out that Damian was Hakanori’s son.

” But no! he’s just an innocent boy who could just play around. Though, this in turn means Hakanori remains in Tikaban and in search for his son until now, interesting!” Magee thought out seriously.

Boom! boom!

“Mama…” The boy wanted to stand up but Magee tried to prevent him from doing so.

“Oh my….shh…go back to sleep Damian, go back to sleep…we’re alright. Shh…” She whispered.

In a minute, she has heard several knock on the door outside and it sounded like there’s an emergency visit so she right away went out and welcomed the family guest.

” Am! naunan kaw?” ( Dad, what happened to you?) Magee quickly led him to the master’s bedroom and made him lean on the wall beside the bed.

” Wa ini.” (This is nothing.) Sr. Sibal sighed and breathe deeply while Magee ran to get for a medical kit. In a minute she had the kit and applied some ointment on his forehead that bled.

” This hurts I know Am. Tell me, what truly happened underneath?”

” If you have heard the second blasts today, it was that attack when some portions of the tunnel, nearby the ruins of our old house was badly hit. I tried to protect my head when few small rocks fell on my forehead and some of the soldiers got the same situation too. I was just thankful that the civilians have left already going down to the secret passage bound to station one before it happened. If not then, this could have been their fate too. Hmm…don’t leap up to run and sue them, forget the goats behind the past in our farm, these enemies got these scary weapons of war, huh! I know what you’re thinking…okay then, give me some gauze, you’re not done yet.” The old man smilingly said despite the pain and exhaustion.

” Am, here’s the gauze and Damian is in room number seven, please stay beside him and I don’t like to just watch over this, they might ruin the tunnel and this house, we might go out soon like nomads and its the end of our fight for freedom. Am…”

” No Magee…I’m telling you not. They have high calibered guns and they’ve got the power we can’t fight back this easy. You know that. All we have to do in order to fulfill our destiny is to be silent. In fact, this hiding place was intentionally built for your safety, so that you both won’t get out since the three of us kept a lot of stock that both of you can survive…”

” Am, you forgot in the blueprint that you included the holes above to imply perspectives and revolution. We’re on top of them, remember.” Magee smiled; grabbed her handgun and dagger before climbing up to the daylight optic hole above the bar counter.

” Magee! Magee! come back here! you! Mageee!” Sr. Sibal shouted while Damian got out from the transparent mirror and ran towards him.

” What happened?” Damian asked.

” This is how this war goes, hmm…” Sr. Sibal sighed when George arrived running.

” Hey George, go catch your wife, faster! she had her gun and dagger and literally got out of the optic hole for a revolt. This is insane! I go crazy over this…this, hah!” Then the old man felt dizzy and leaned back again while the little boy was fanning a hat to the old man.

” Good job Magee, I’ll go tell her the plan.” George smiled.

” What? Say it again? George! George!” Sibal shouted for the second time but the lieutenant added more stuffs on his gear and climbed after her.

” Damian? is that how they call you? Did you just hear what the lieutenant has just told me? Did…” Sr. Sibal stopped when the boy spoke.

” Wow…I wanna like Papa when I grow up.” Damian smiled while looking up to the optic hole and watching the soldier vanished out of his sight.

” Who’s Papa? who the….Ah! I’m maybe hallucinating. My goodness! I’m crazier than before, can’t imagine a little Jap calling the Fil-Am soldier his Papa and…” The old man stopped from thinking and turned his head to the boy and said; ” So how are you calling his wife if you called him Papa?” Sibal gently asked and waited an answer.

” Hmm…Mama, Mama.” Sr. Sibal smiled and reiterated what the little boy have just spoken.

” Mama…Mama…” The old man smiled and pressed his head while murmuring.

” Heavens, what have I done in fathering to this couple before. Forget it Lord…I also accepted my wife for bearing a son from the other man who turned out to be one of my bestfriends. I’m the worst, okay….Damian, take good care of me now, give me a mug of water and just call me Lolo Sibal, okay?” He smiled to the boy.

” Yes, Lolo.” Damian handed to him some mug of water then massaged his shoulders that made the old man fell on bed and slept.

Above the surface of the granite house were Magee and George, crawling to a grassy portion where bonsai trees grew like more than bushes in front of them as they covered themselves with these miniature trees. He winked an eye on her; sweating too much on his forehead while she pulled his hanky out of his pocket and wiped it on his face to lighten him up.

” Thank you. But how did you know that we needed you this time, Mag. We’d a brief meeting underneath and Dad instructed me to engage you this time with a little help from you, I guess the soldiers underneath can start the attack and the guerrillas can bring smoothly the remaining civilians to station one for the mean time. This is what you’re going to do, honey.” Then he kissed her forehead tenderly so quickly and spoke back while sweating.

” Be extra careful, Mag. We have 15 opponents, with two stand by vehicles outside and a box of explosives. We have 4 aggressive soldiers from the western part to dive in for an attack when the southern part of the mountain hid some 4 soldiers and guerrillas who would start the fire to attract the opponents’ attention. While the opponents would climb to get them, they’ll disengage and roll back to the western troop and join them. While the internal men would do these job to pin them down, you will throw these bombs out there, just like what you did before. If these men would try to find you, i’ll cover the entrance gate with a lock while passing through a hole going down. Dad just told us, that there’s a hole above the entrance gate and instructed me to close both doors to finally close it and will never be passable again.” George explained.

” So…where will you escape, if it would be closed forever?”

” Simple, I had to climb upward again and go down to attack those less than three men on post outside then if done, I’ll go drive their vehicle and leave it down the hill towards the gnashing river below.” He ended.
