Epic Fail

Somewhere in Leon Guinto Street, a warehouse is close and no one is guarding it. Suddenly, Joed, Ken and Glenn barge through the door. It is dark inside so Ken brings out his pen that emits a very bright light and he turns it on. The intensity of the light can now be controlled so the warehouse is brightened like turning on the light in a house.

There, it reveals the two fire demons that look like a bird. One of them is having the caliginous gateway inside. There is also a possessed man together with its four little demons that look like snails.

Glenn starts shooting the little demons with his electricity balls. The little demons are very fast. They dodge the attacks of Glenn. The four little demons combined together to form a very large snail as large as a van. Then, the large snail creates a fireball from its mouth and shoots Joed, Ken and Glenn.

The three dodge the attack and run separately. Joed is carrying Tatang’s cane. He turns invisible and runs towards the big snail. The big snail cannot see Joed in his invisible state. When Joed is near the big snail, he stabs it with the cane. The big snail burns and turns into ashes.

The fire demon that has no caliginous gateway rushes to attack Ken and Glenn because it cannot see Joed. Ken and Glenn bring out devices that look like Pentel pens. When the fire demon is near, Ken and Glenn point the devices to the fire demon and push the buttons. They release fine soap bubbles and hit the fire demon. The fire surrounding the elemental demon is gone when hit by the bubbles. The elemental demon tries to fly away but Glenn already has a charge of electricity ball and shoots the elemental demon. The elemental demon explodes and disappears.

The other elemental demon and the possessed man are surprised of what happened. They try to escape but from behind of the fire demon with caliginous gateway, Joed, in invisible state, uses his device which is the same as the devices of Ken and Glenn. When the bubbles hit the fire demon, the fire surrounding the elemental demon vanishes. The elemental demon and the caliginous gateway are left.

Joed hits the elemental demon with the cane. The elemental demon explodes when it is hit. Then, it disappears. Joed then grabs the caliginous gateway and closes it. The light from the gateway hits the possessed man. The possession demon comes out and the man is left unconscious. Joed hits the stone on the forehead of the possession demon with the cane. The stone breaks, and the possession demon disappears like a smoke in the air.

Joed speaks as he is walking towards Ken and Glenn while Ken and Glenn tend the unconscious man. “This device is really helpful Ken. Where did you learn to use soap bubbles rather than purely water to stop the fire?” Ken replies. “On the television… One of the news said that the fire fighters are using soap bubbles and not purely water.”

Joed speaks again. “Wow! I didn’t know that. So next time Glenn, if you want something to burn, bring soap with you. Hahaha…” Glenn responds. “Hey! I’m not the one who needs soap. Maybe you do, because it looks like that you haven’t taken a bath for a long time.” Joed replies. “Haha… Your forehead is very shiny. Maybe you used twenty laundry soaps on that.”

Ken laughs and speaks. “Hahaha… Both of you are just the same. You need to take a bath. The two of you smell like horse. Hahaha…” Joed and Glenn laugh too.

Joed changes the topic of their conversation while helping to carry the unconscious man. “So, Ken, are we going to push through the day out on Saturday?” Ken replies. “Yes. Our batch needs to hang out sometimes. It is a good time to hang out because the periodical examination is done, and on Friday is the distribution of the academic report card.”

Joed continues asking. “So, where are we going? I think many will come.” Ken replies. “I think we should go to do videoke so everyone will be accommodated.” Joed smiles and responds. “Yes! I think that it is a good idea. Let us invite Minnie and the others.” Ken replies. “Yes. Let us invite all our classmates who are willing to come.”

Glenn gets into the conversation. He speaks. “Okay. So, let us talk about this tomorrow. I think my father is looking for me right now.” Joed replies. “You are such a daddy’s boy Glenn. Anyway, let us leave this place before anyone sees us here.”

The three leave the warehouse carrying the man who was possessed. They left the man somewhere safe before they go home. From the warehouse, just a few seconds left, the female creature who is one of Macreo’s subjects, appears in the dark room. She grins. Then, she disappears.

The next day, inside their classroom, the three are planning about their videoke day on Saturday. Joed speaks. “So, Ken, later we should find a videoke place. But I don’t know where to look.” Ken replies. “Me too. We need someone to accompany us who knows a place for that.”

Joed continues. “Maybe somewhere in Malate. There are many videoke places there.” Ken replies again. “Yes I think. Let us ask someone who knows the place.”

Glenn gets into the conversation. He speaks. “What about Yuta? He lives there in Malate.” Joed agrees. “Yes. That’s true.” Ken responds. “Okay. Later we talk to Yuta about it.”

While they are mingling, their adviser distributes a piece of paper to each student. It is a letter about the distribution of the report card on Friday. Mr. Fajardo speaks. “Okay class! You already know what that letter is for. Your parents, guardians or your elder sisters or brothers can get your report card. Those with problems with regard to their grades, it is imperative that I talk to your parents or guardians especially that you are graduating students.”

Suddenly, Daniella, who is sitting in front row, notices that Mr. Fajardo is some sort of feeling dizzy. She speaks. “Hey sir! Are you okay? You look so tired and haggard.” Mr. Fajardo responds. “I’m fine. I didn’t have enough sleep. I have insomnia.” Daniella jokes. “So, sir, we don’t have lessons anymore because you are feeling so tired and you need to take some rests.”

Minnie also tells a joke. “Yes sir. I agree with Daniella. Every time you have a lesson, it’s like you have been covering the entire book.” The other students also agree as they speak together. “Free time, free time…”

Mr. Fajardo laughs and replies. “Hahaha… No puedo! We will have a new lesson today, and actually we will have quiz right after the discussion.” joked Mr. Fajardo. The students turn sad as they react together. “Noooo…”

Ken thinks of something and he tells it to Joed. “Hey Joed! Why don’t we invite Mr. Fajardo on Saturday? Do you think he will join us?” Joed replies. “I don’t know. But before, according to my sister, Mr. Fajardo hanged out with her classmates Vhaldo and his friends.” Ken smiles and replies. “Great! Maybe he can come with us too. Ask him later. Anyway, you are one of his close students other than Minnie.”

Joed is surprised after hearing Minnie’s name. He asks. “He is close to Minnie?” Ken replies. “Yes. He has been Minnie’s tutor from first year until third year in Math.” Joed continues. “Okay. I will ask him later.”

But Joed changes his mind. “I think I will ask him now.”

Joed goes to Mr. Fajardo and speaks. “Sir! Would you like to come with us?” Mr. Fajardo, confused, asks Joed. “Where and when?” Joed continues. “We are planning to go out, a simple get together with some of my classmates.” Mr. Fajardo continues asking. “Okay, so who will be with us?” Joed continues. “We don’t know yet. But surely Ken, Glenn and Mariana will be with us.” Mr. Fajardo continues asking. “What are you planning to do?” Joed answers. “Nothing much. Just videoke so everyone can enjoy because we don’t know the interests of my other classmates. But I’m sure that they love to sing.”

Mr. Fajardo jokes. “I have a terrible voice. I can’t be compared with Mr. Ville.” Mr. Ville is one of the teachers who has a very good singing voice.

Joed laughs and replies. “Don’t worry sir, only we can hear you sing. I think my voice is more terrible.” Mr. Fajardo replies. “Okay then. I will go with you. Just tell me when.” Joed is happy. Then, he replies. “Okay sir, thank you! I shall inform you when.”

Joed goes back to Ken and Glenn. Ken excitedly asks Joed. “So, what is his answer?” Joed replies. “He said yes. He will be joining us.” Ken and Glenn are happy hearing it as they speak together. “Yes!” The three do high fives with each other.

Meanwhile, in Macreo’s lair, Macabro and Mico are thinking of the new strategies to deal with the Novel Blue Soul Blood. Macabro speaks. “We have to take our revenge. This is getting too far.” Mico replies. “Yes. They can easily get solutions to defeat my elemental demons. Their powers are strong too. With the weapon made from the Death Tree, they can easily defeat us.”

Suddenly, the lady creature appears and speaks. “How is your plan? Your previous plans failed. Your fire demons, Mico, were easily defeated because of the device made by them.” Mico replies. “Matilde! So, you’ve been watching us.”

Matilde walks towards the two. She has violet long hair and violet eyes. She is wearing violet bathing suit-like and violet boots with shining designs. She has a long violet tail of a cat. She is holding a long staff. The lower end of the staff is pointed, and the upper end has a medium size black crystal ball.

Matilde replies to Mico. “I’ve been watching the two of you on my crystal ball attached to my staff. I’m also studying the moves of those Novel Blue Soul Blood.” Mico asks. “And what have you learned about them.” Matilde replies. “I learned that they really are exceptional beings.”

Macabro gets into the conversation. “That’s it? What about their weaknesses? Have you figured it out?” Matilde replies to Macabro. “They have many weaknesses because they are just human and they are not adults yet. The only problem I see is that, you let them get momentum.”

Mico is confused. He asks. “Momentum?” Matilde replies to Mico. “Yes, my dear Mico. But I will not explain it yet. I will tell you my plan when lord Macreo awakes from his hibernation. For now, you keep on doing what you think is okay. Do not forget to open another caliginous gateway so lord Macreo’s recovery will be fast.”

Macabro responds. “Why not help us now? With our combine powers, they will not stand a chance.” Matilde smiles then replies. “It is not time yet, Macabro.” Then Matilde disappears.

Macabro speaks to Mico. “That woman is really a puzzle.” Mico agrees. “Yes. But her power is so great. She can amplify ours too.” Then, the two continues their plan for their next attack.

It is high school recess time in PCAF. Joed and Ken talk to Yuta about their plan of going out. Ken speaks. “Yuta, do you know a videoke place near Robinson’s Place Manila?” Yuta replies. “There are many videoke bars around Robinson’s Place Manila. But most of them serve beer and they open at night.”

Joed speaks. “But for sure, there are others that will accommodate us students and not drinking beer or liquor.” Yuta replies. “I think so. We can inquire later after my practice in table tennis.” Ken responds. “Okay. Later after school, Joed and I will come back here after your practice.” Yuta answers. “Okay then. Just text me if we are ready to go.”

Suddenly Mateo comes and asks Ken. “Hey Ken. Is it true that we will go out this Saturday?” Ken is confused. He asks. “How did you know about that?” Mateo answers. “Glenn told me. So, I will tell the others about the plan then.” Joed responds. “Wait! We still need to find a place later.” Mateo replies. “Okay then. But I will tell the others about the plan anyway so many can come.” Then, the bell rings. It is time for the next subject.

Inside the classroom, Joed tells Mariana about the plan. He wants to tell Minnie about it. Mariana speaks. “Tell her about it, the more we are, the merrier. And at the same time, you will be having time to talk to her.” Joed replies. “Okay then.”

Joed goes to Minnie together with Mariana. He speaks. “Hi Minnie!” Minnie smiles when she sees Joed. Joed continues. “We are planning to go out this Saturday. I’m thinking if you could come too.” Minnie replies. “I’m not sure yet. I will ask my parents first.” Joed smiles and continues. “Okay! Don’t worry. There will be many of our classmates who will come too.”

Mariana gets into the conversation. She speaks. “Yes Minnie. I think we should go out sometimes. The tests are finished and we need to relax a little once in a while.” Minnie replies. “Okay. I will try to convince my parents.” Mariana continues. “Okay. I will tell you the details later. Oh, by the way, Sir Fajardo will be coming too. I think your parents will agree to know that Sir will be there too.” Minnie replies. “Okay!”

Joed and Mariana return to their seats. Joed is happy that Minnie talked to him. He is hoping that Minnie will be allowed by her parents to join them.

After the class, Joed, Ken and Glenn go home first and change clothes. Yuta’s training is an hour and a half. They have to wait for him to finish the training before they can go to Robinson’s Place Manila. Joed returns to school quickly because his house is near the school.

Joed sees Mariana and Yohee talking with each other. He goes to them and joins their conversation. He greets. “Hello girls!” Mariana and Yohee reply together. “Hello Joed.”

Joed sits beside them and mingles with the two while waiting for Yuta. Joed speaks. “So, Yohee, will you be joining us on Saturday?” Yohee replies. “Yes. Lui will be joining us too.” Yohee and Lui have mutual understanding relationship status.

Mariana speaks too. “Joed, I think Minnie will join us. Her parents will be confident to know that Mr. Fajardo will be there too.” Joed feels happy, then he replies. “I hope so!”

Suddenly, Joed’s phone receives a text message. Joed gets his phone and reads the message. It is from Glenn. It says “Guys sorry. I can’t go with you today. My dad did not allow me.”

Joed gets a grumpy face after reading the message. After an hour, Ken comes. Joed tells him that Glenn cannot join them. Then after a while, Yuta’s practice has ended. He changes clothes and the three go to Malate.

Joed, Ken and Yuta search a videoke place around Malate. There are many videoke bars but as Yuta said, many are only open during night time. They continue to search around. They walk around and inquire in every videoke bar. Finally, they found one that opens in the afternoon. They check the place and they are satisfied. Then the three leave the place.

Ken speaks as they are walking. “Okay! So, we already have a place. We will make our reservation on Friday after the distribution of the academic report cards.”

Joed gets worried when Ken mention about the distribution of cards. He speaks. “Oh no!” Ken and Yuta are confused. Yuta asks Joed. “What’s wrong?” Joed replies. “No one will get my card. My sister has work and will come home late. My mother will go to Mandaluyong to take care of my sister’s children. What should I do?” Yuta responds. “Find someone to get your card. As of mine, my coach will be the one to get it for me because my brother is busy and my mother cannot come too.” Joed replies. “But who? I don’t know anyone. I need my report card so I can apply for the entrance exam in De La Salle University.”

Ken responds. “There will be many parents there. You can ask them to get your card.” Joed answers. “But Sir Fajardo knows those parents. He will not believe that I am their relative.” Ken continues suggesting. “Ask Minnie’s parents. Hahaha…” He continues. “Just joking.”

Ken thinks of someone. “Why not ask Tatang?” Joed gets an idea while Yuta is only listening because he does not know who Tatang is. He replies happily to Ken. “You have given me an idea Ken. Okay I will ask him.”

Yuta, confused, asks. “Who is Tatang? Is he your grandfather, Joed?” Joed replies. “Just an old friend. Hehe…”

After a while, they reach Yuta’s place. Yuta bid goodbye to the two. “Hey guys good night! See you tomorrow at school.” Joed and Ken also bid goodbye to Yuta. “Okay Yuta! Thank you for helping us today.” Then Yuta goes in his way home.

Joed and Ken continue walking. The street is quiet and no people around. Suddenly, from behind them, a man jumps towards them. The man kicks Joed’s and Ken’s back. The two are pushed forward but they maintain their balance.

Joed and Ken quickly turn around to face the man. Ken sees that the man is possessed. He speaks. “Joed, be careful. He is possessed.” Then, Mico and Macabro appear together with two air demons and one of them is having the caliginous gateway.

Joed speaks. “So, you again huh! Didn’t your mama ever tell you that it is bad to attack someone from behind?” Mico replies. “You are still making jokes, Joed, even though your situation is unfortunate. There are only two of you. How will you be able to defeat us?” Joed replies. “Didn’t you ever learn your lesson Mico? We are the Novel Blue Soul Blood. You can’t defeat us even if we are only two.”

Macabro shuts tight and commands the possessed man to attack the two. The man runs towards Joed and jumps. He makes a drop kick but Joed turns invisible and quickly dodges the attack. Joed makes a foot sweep kick on the man. The possessed man falls on the ground.

The two air demons attack Ken together. Ken runs away and hides by a big tree nearby. The two air demons separate and attacks in opposite direction. When they get to Ken’s position, the two air demons stop because they do not see Ken there.

The two air demons search for Ken. Surprisingly, Ken jumps from above the tree to the air demon with caliginous gateway. Ken quickly grabs the caliginous gateway since air element is penetrable. The two air demons are shocked so as Mico and Macabro.

The caliginous gateway is closed and the light that comes from it hits the possessed man. The possession demon comes out of the man. The man turns unconscious. Joed, who is still in invisible state, punches the stone on its forehead. The stone breaks. The possession demon disappears like a smoke in the air.

Macabro gets angry at Mico as he speaks. “Your elemental demons fail to protect the caliginous gateway.” Mico gets annoyed at Macabro. “I told you to wait for another two days so I can summon elemental demons than the air demons. You know that air is easily penetrable by anyone. But you kept on insisting. There, they easily closed the caliginous gateway.”

While the two are arguing, Ken brings out a steel tube from his pocket. He pushes a button on it and then, it becomes a long stick. Next, he attacks and hits the two elemental demons consecutively. The two elemental demons explode and disappear.

Mico and Macabro just stopped arguing when they saw the two elemental demons vanished. Mico and Macabro cannot believe. They start blaming each other again. Mico speaks. “It is your fault.” Macabro replies angrily. “It is your fault. Your elemental demons are epic failure.”

Mico raises his staff to attack Macabro. Macabro raises his hand towards Mico and charges an energy ball.

Joed returns to his normal state. Joed and Ken take the opportunity. They run towards the two to attack them. When they are near Mico and Macabro, a powerful force repels them. They are thrown away and fall on the ground.

Mico and Macabro stop their quarrelling and get confused. Macabro speaks. “Who did that?” Then, Mico sees Matilde on a black cloud near them.

The black cloud is one of Matilde’s skills. It makes Matilde levitate. Then, she speaks. “Stop your childish quarrel and return to our lair. I already have information about Emery.” Mico and Macabro are surprised to hear that. They quickly vanish and leave Joed and Ken.

Ken and Joed saw what happened. Joed asks. “Who is that girl? She is flying using that black cloud.” Ken replies. “I don’t know. But whoever she is, I think we have a new powerful enemy again.” The two stands up. They go away.

It is Friday, distribution of the report cards. Many parents and guardians come to the school to get their children’s academic report cards. Inside the fourth year classroom, many fourth year students are waiting for their parents and guardians to come.

Joed and Tatang come inside the classroom. Everyone is staring at Tatang because they are not used to his clothing. There are no parents yet inside to get their report cards. Mr. Fajardo is busy writing something. Then, Joed speaks to Mr. Fajardo as he and Tatang stand in front of him. “Sir, this is my uncle. He is the one to get my report card.”

Mr. Fajardo smiles and looks up. But when he sees Tatang he gets surprised as he whispers. “Emery!?” Tatang is also surprised to see Mr. Fajardo.

Joed does not understand what Mr. Fajardo just said. But he notices that the two seem surprised to see each other. Joed asks Mr. Fajardo. “Sir, do you know my uncle?” Mr. Fajardo smiles again. Then, he replies. “Ah, no. I just thought that it would be your mother or Joyce to get your card.”

Then, Mr. Fajardo gives the attendance sheet to Tatang to sign. Tatang signs the attendance sheet. Mr. Fajardo gives the report card to Joed after the signing. Joed speaks again to Mr. Fajardo. “Sir tomorrow 2pm here at school. We will be waiting for you here.” Mr. Fajardo smiles, then, he replies. “Okay Joed. I will be here tomorrow.” Joed jokes. “Promise? Hahaha… Just kidding. I know you will come.” Then, Joed and Tatang go.

As the two are walking away, Tatang stares at Mr. Fajardo while Mr. Fajardo is facing down and thinking deeply.

As Joed and Tatang are walking downstairs, Tatang asks Joed. “How long have you known Mr. Fajardo?” Joed replies. “He has been my teacher since I was in elementary. Why?” Tatang responds. “Nothing. He looks young. I thought he would be an old man. So, you have invited him tomorrow at your bonding time.” Joed answers. “Yes. Maybe you can come too.” Tatang replies. “I don’t think it is suitable for me. I think you should go without me and enjoy. And it is nice that you have invited your adviser too.” Joed smiles but in his mind, he is puzzled of why Tatang is glad that they have invited Mr. Fajardo.

Saturday morning. The wind is so strong and it is raining. It seems that there will be a typhoon coming. Joed, Ken and Glenn are chatting with each other on Facebook.

Conversation Box (Joed, Ken and Glenn)

Joed: The wind is very strong and it is raining.

Ken: I know. What will happen later about our videoke?

Joed: Don’t worry. The weather later will be fair.

Ken: How do you know?

Joed: Just have faith Ken.

Ken: It will be an epic fail if it will be cancelled. Besides, we already have a reservation yesterday.

Joed: Just have faith Ken. It will not be cancelled.

Glenn: Sorry guys. My dad did not allow me to go today because of the strong wind and rain.

Joed: Oh! Come on, Glenn. This is once in a life time.

Ken: Glenn, we need you there.

Glenn: I am really sorry. I wish I could go. But I don’t want to disobey my dad.

Ken: Okay Glenn. But if he changes his mind and allows you, you just contact Joed.

Joed: Yes, Glenn. We will feel incomplete without you.

Glenn: Drama. I know everybody will be happy if I am not there.

Joed: Drama? Right now, you are the one who is having drama.

Ken: Ok ok… we chat later of the development of the weather.

Glenn and Joed sign off while Ken is still online. Then, he sees Mr. Fajardo just got online. He chats him.

Conversation Box (Ken and Mr. Fajardo)

Ken: Sir!

Rodel: Yow Ken!

Ken: See you later sir! We are hoping to see you there.

Rodel: Glad that you chat. I think there is a typhoon coming. What if it gets stronger?

Ken: We will still continue.

Rodel: We are not cancelling it?

Ken: No sir. Hehe is it okay to you?

Rodel: I will be travelling from Taguig City. You are near Robinson’s Place Manila. I think it’s fair for me @.@

Ken: Haha… Just be there, sir.

Rodel: Okay, but I need to text Joed in case the wind and rain get stronger. Do you know his number?

Ken: Sorry sir. I don’t have his number. Hehe

Rodel: Great! Haha.. ok, I will chat him later maybe.

Ken: Ok sir. We do this get together for you.

Rodel: Ahehe Thanks! I’m flattered

Ken mentioned the term ‘epic fail.’ Epic fail is used by students playing online game when the fail to win because something worse happen. It becomes widely used throughout the country because many students play online games like DOTA. It is an exaggeration of the term failure.

It is 12 o’ clock noon. The weather turns fair and good. It means that their get together is not cancelled. They see each other at school. The other classmates of them did not come. The joining members are Joed, Ken, Mateo, Yuta, Lui, Orly, Mariana, Minnie, Veron, Jesa, Yohee and Mr. Fajardo.

They go to the videoke place when they are complete. At the videoke place Joed and Ken talks to the manager about their reservation. They are shown to their room. They turn on the air conditioning system inside. They get inside for a while but they go out instantly.

Mr. Fajardo is confused. He asks. “Why? Why did you go out?” Minnie replies. “The smell inside is not good. It smells cigarette smoke.”

The others confirm it also. No one wants to get inside. Joed and Ken are totally disappointed and down. Mateo speaks. “I thought you said (Ken and Joed) the place is good. I can’t even breathe inside.”

Ken and Joed apologize. Ken explains. “We are so sorry guys. We checked it last night. It didn’t smell like that. We are truly sorry.”

Everyone looks so disappointed too. Ken tells the manager that they will just eat and they will not enter the room anymore to have videoke. He continues his apologizing especially to Mr. Fajardo. “Sir I’m sorry. We didn’t expect that this will happen.” Mr. Fajardo replies. “It is okay Ken. No one knew that this would happen. Let us enjoy the moment and eat.”

Joed apologizes to the others especially to Minnie. He speaks. “Minnie, I’m sorry that this happened. We really didn’t expect this because we really checked it last night with Yuta and Ken.” Minnie replies. “It’s okay.”

Many complain while eating. Minnie did not eat much. Mariana and Mr. Fajardo did not eat much neither because the foods are placed in front of Mateo. Mateo complains while he is eating. “This is epic fail.”

Mr. Fajardo gets an idea. He speaks. “So, since it is not late, why don’t we go to Robinson’s Place Manila? Let us have… I don’t know, window shopping maybe, or play arcade or billiards.”

Joed and Ken look at each other happily. They agree. Joed speaks. “That is a good idea. So, we can still have a good time.”

After eating, they go to Robinson’s Place Manila. The others go home already. Only Joed, Ken, Mariana, Yohee, Lui, Yuta and Mr. Fajardo are left. They play billiards, then, they go to Timezone Amusement Center. They see a room of videoke inside. Mr. Fajardo suggests. “Why don’t we have videoke in Timezone?”

Ken and Joed smile and agree. Then they enjoy videoke. Everyone sings even though their voices are average. After the videoke Ken and Joed thank everyone for coming. Ken and Joed thank and touch Mr. Fajardo’s hand. Ken speaks. “Sir, thank you for coming today. We really had a good time even though the first plan was an epic fail.”

Joed adds. “Yes sir. It was really Ken’s plan to have you here with us. And I think it is not a complete disaster after all.” Mr. Fajardo smiles. Then he replies. “I had a good time too. Thank you for inviting me. I never thought that it was Ken’s idea. I thought it was Joed’s. Anyway, I think I should…”

Mr. Fajardo suddenly stops and gets a serious face. Joed and Ken notice the sudden change of Mr. Fajardo’s facial expression. Mr. Fajardo suddenly pulls his hands away from Joed and Ken. Joed and Ken are confused. Joed asks. “Is everything alright sir?”

Mr. Fajardo smiles from being serious and responds. “Yes. I’m sorry. I think I just get electrified. Nonetheless, thank you Ken and Joed.” Then they go in separate ways.

Somewhere in Leon Guinto Street, a warehouse is closed and no one is guarding it. Joed, Ken and Glenn barge through the door. They see Tatang inside, tied on a chair. Suddenly, two elemental demons grab Glenn. Glenn’s power is useless to the element demons. Ken is grabbed by Macabro and Joed is grabbed by Mico. The four are powerless and handicapped. Matilde appears then four daggers come out from her long staff. Each dagger has been stabbed to Tatang, Joed, Ken and Glenn. Then, the four are left lifeless.
