I wakened in chilly sweat. I stood up as shortly as I can and I regretted that half for it made me extra nauseated. I had a go searching my surroundings, and all I can say is “Wow”. I’m in some form of room, a chrome room largely, lined up with some futuristic issues, however largely used for medical actions, I feel and I needed these usually are not for torturing online game geeks who dream of Philippine warriors within the meantime.

I checked out myself, I gasped, all my wounds are closed, that was quick or perhaps I used to be asleep for 100 years like Captain America. I’m confused, I’m additionally scared in the identical method.

My mom peeped on the doorway of the room, carrying some form of stealth battle armor my Dad wore the final time I noticed him and she or he all of the sudden rushed in direction of me and tackled me with a hug.

“Thank the Gods above you’re alive”, she croaked. “You might have been unconscious for like 6 days and I’ve been so nervous, I assumed I…”, Tears rolled down on her cheeks, “I assumed I’m going to lose you too.”

“Hey mother, I am okay, I assume however six days? I’ve a thesis protection! Oh my, oh properly, it does not matter, however what do you imply lose me too? The place is Dad? What occurred to dad?” I requested.

She breathed deep and managed herself from sobbing, “For the meantime, we don’t know what occurred to that of your Father however we have got to remain constructive utmost, every thing is okay. The whole lot might be okay.” She promised.

The air, after the chilly and harsh happenings, simply all of the sudden turned heat, the facility of moms over every thing can merely flip a thunderstorm into an exquisite, glamorous rainbow inside a snap. However even issues are like that, I’m nonetheless confused and tousled from the happenings.

“Mother,” I requested, “What is occurring? The place are we? What do these glowy eyed soldier guys bought to do with us? We’re harmless, proper? We’re doing nothing dangerous like ever, proper?”

She regarded sternly at me, like a soldier who’s anticipating a conflict anytime, “My son, Ramil, however I would like you to take this fairly critically okay?”

I nodded.

“Our blood is of probably the most important of all, we’re born and a part of the bloodline of the mighty Anakdatu. The Anakdatu is a company that promised to guard the nation with all their may.”

Anakdatu? A really foolish title for a company. And all of the sudden, I noticed the dream I had whereas I used to be unconscious, “Oh, was the group already current on the time of Magellan? The colonizer man? Was it like composed of 10 guys or such?” I requested.

She regarded shocked, “Sure, really that’s the place Anakdatu began, how on Earth did you ever knew that info?”

I instructed my mother every thing I dreamed of, from the hut with the humorous battle cry and even the after photographs I noticed once I was younger.

“Oh sure, the genetics of the Anakdatu performing up inside you, supplying you with already some introduction and do you know, that humorous phrase you mentioned, that’s really the origin of that.” She laughed half-heartedly.

“In any case, that’s what occurred, the Anakdatu fashioned for the worry that our nation might be on different individuals’s palms. The Anakdatu is a secret group working behind all, even behind the federal government itself, extra doubtless a revolt, however a revolt with agenda. And sure, on the entire group, there have been solely 10 crucial datus that began this regime and from these Datu’s names, fashioned the codenames and positions for the individuals on the group. From the bottom of the ranks, Datu Puti, and no my son, not the soy sauce, he isn’t actually the bottom, however one of the crucial vital, he’s the one which strides in broad daylight, in contrast to the others who works on the darkness. He’s assigned to guard sure beings corresponding to presidents and stuff. Truly, all of them work in daylight however Datu Puti is extra kinda uncovered than most of them. Your father at the moment holds the place of Datu Puti and you’re the inheritor to his place in case he..” My mother sobbed once more.

“Transferring on, Datu Bankaya, he’s subsequent to Datu Puti in terms of place, he’s the group’s medic and I can not inform you the title of the others for it’s confidential and you’re largely solely allowed to name them by their code names. Then subsequent is Datu Sikatuna, the ninja of the group, properly, his place is the reconnaissance and stealth division. Then subsequent is Datu Sumakwel, he holds all this know-how, he who manages the analysis and growth and the communications too, additionally the undercover spy after which there comes Datu Macabulos..

We’re all of the sudden interrupted by a buff soldier, the identical uniform that my mother and pa wore, probably not that buff, extra like lithe and slender, he’s the conventional Filipino stereotype, brown pores and skin, not so pointed nostril, and he is bought a military flattop for a ‘do. And he’s additionally carrying a transparent wayfarer glasses that doesn’t match along with his outfit.

“Oh, there may be Datu Macabulos, coach of the best brokers, the sergeant of the group, good morning Macabulos.” My mother mentioned, “That is my son Ramil, we’re underneath code purple and we’re ordered by Datu Puti so we’re staying right here for awhile.”

Mr. Macabulos regarded down and again to us once more “I’m sorry for the intrusion however we have got information.”

He confirmed and opened his palm and their lies my father’s amulet, or agimat that he at all times wore, a golden medallion large as a coin with holy inscriptions and his code title “Datu Puti” on the again, I have not observed that title on the again earlier than or perhaps I wasn’t paying an excessive amount of consideration however why, why is that this man with the wayfarer glasses displaying us my father’s amulet?

My mother cupped his palms on his face and sobbed, I used to be awestruck too, “The place is my dad?” I requested.

“Datu Puti is out of service, I’m so sorry.” He mentioned mournfully.

*********************************************************************************************************

All that run on my thoughts is how? Or perhaps my dad is simply taking part in some form of prank to us and he’s simply hiding behind the Macabulos man and he’ll simply pop up and say “Shock!”. Or perhaps he’s nonetheless alive and he left the necklace on objective to know he’s nonetheless alive.

“What occurred?” I began crying.

Datu Macabulos gave us a narration of how they scanned, him and Lapu-lapu the realm of the place all of the issues occurred. He mentioned that our home is true now turned to rubble and dirt and going again might be very harmful and as they scanned the realm of our house is he solely discovered the medallion however not the physique whereby the medallion, after all, ought to at all times be worn.

He forlornly mentioned, “We’ve not discovered Datu Puti in a five-kilometer radius so our conclusions are-“

“He is alive.” I felt again a surge of hope in me, “He’s alive, however why of all issues ought to he depart his medallion?”

“That principally is our conclusion, that perhaps he was knocked out and introduced by the enemy as a hostage.” He mentioned with a really straight face (though I can not imagine how a person delivers information a few tragedy with a really straight face, or perhaps he is simply being soldier-y), “And as one of the crucial vital guidelines of a Datu or an Anakdatu, the medallion each agent wears holds their bloodline in it and have to be protected with all their lives. It’s handed on from the very founders of this group and these medallions are crucial that an agent will threat their lives too only for the medallion to be taken by others or be gone lacking. Leaving the medallion is an intuition for he is aware of he’ll face interrogation and hostage stuff in order that, I hope you perceive that.” Macabulos concluded.

“However then, how will we save dad? Who will save him?” I requested

“That’s one thing we’re doing now-” He pressed one thing in his proper ear, I assumed he’s having tinnitus, “Oh wait, excuse me, a name.” He mentioned and turned again to the doorway. How impolite.

I noticed my mother sobbing a lot, and actually, it broke my coronary heart to see my Mother crying, really it’s my first time to see my mom cry and it actually felt dangerous, however I do know I can not do something.

“Mother, every thing goes to be okay,” I promised her.

She checked out me with worry, and a mix of unhappiness “It isn’t what I’m crying about Ram, after all, they will retrieve your dad with ease particularly Lapu-Lapu can retrieve your dad inside minutes, it’s the truth that as soon as an agent removes his medallion, it means additionally that it’s going to be handed on too to his subsequent in line blood.”

And my thoughts began churning, Subsequent in line blood? Is not that presupposed to be me? A wave of worry washed on me.

“In order that means-“

“Sure, my son,” and a tear rolled as much as her cheek, “You’re Datu Puti now.” And he or she cried much more.

I can not completely imagine it, that was actually fast, can not sleep that night time, I went out, cellphone rang, explosions, Dad on a Snake sneaking go well with, shrapnel throughout my physique, bought unconscious, wakened virtually healed, Anakdatu, my dad died, I imply, lacking and now I’m a undercover agent? After all that’s so superior, like hell superior however after all a worry too.

I checked out my mom crying, I perceive why, after all, if a teen instructed his mother and father, “I need to be part of the military.”, or some stuff like that, it is like their greatest worry as a result of they’ve sealed your religion already. That you’ll die on the battlefield and so forth.

Mr. Bankaya went again to the room with a slight smirk on the face and a glint of happiness in his eyes, “Your father was retrieved by Datu Lapu-Lapu, oh heck, these troopers and their hideouts is nothing for Lapu Lapu so yeah, he’s alive. However because the rule, he eliminated his medallion, and we are going to go on the medallion to his subsequent in line.” He checked out me with some pleasure.

He placed on the medallion to me and smiled, “It belongs to you now.” And he took a knee, “All hail Datu Puti, protector of the general public, guardian of the individuals, Anakdatu.”

And the overhead audio system spoke too, “ALL HAIL”

“Oh rattling,” I mentioned.
