josh told our group mates before we headed towards the exit of the gymnasium.
we just had a meeting with the cheerdance team and our coach told us that our training and practices will start a week from now because the UAAP Cheerdance Competition will be held on the third week of November, and at this time, it's already August. that means we have, more or less, 3 months to prepare. most of the members of salinggawi aren't new so we are pretty much used to the feeling of being exhausted from the day-to-day practice for the competition. according to josh, ken's trainings for UAAP Sports has started as well as the opening of the season wil be on the third week of September. however, the UST men basketball team's first game will be held on the first week of October.
josh said. it's already 6:00 pm and we are now about to go home.
i said while scratching my eye. grabe wala pang practice for UAAP pero yung pagod ko good for 10 years na yata. T_____T
josh insisted, clinging his arms onto mine. i tried to push him away but he only hugged my arm tighter until we laughed together at our silliness.
gagong 'to hinampas ako sa braso. -,-
josh started running away while screaming and i chased behind him like an angry predator. people were starting to look at us as we pass by them one by one. we probably look like idiots. josh continued running and i kept chasing him while we laugh our ass off until we reached the parking lot and then-
a bright light suddenly blinded my vision and a loud noise coming from the car's honk filled my ears, almost hurting them.
fortunately, i was able to push josh away before he got hit by the car and both of us fell on the ground. the driver went out of the car, fuming mad and immediately grabbed josh by his collar. i tried to pull josh away from him but his grip on josh's polo was too hard. i could see how my bestfriend was trying hard not to cry infront of this man.

the middle-aged man shouted at josh's face before pushing him hard, causing him to fall on the ground again. i helped him to stand and the man was about to go back to his car but i followed him. tangina, don't ever touch my friends like that.
i shouted and he faced me, anger is still evident on his face and he looks like he wants to punch me right there. don't worry, ako rin naman.
i felt josh trying to pull me away and calm me down.
josh whispered. hell, no. i'm not backing down until this fucker apologizes to my bestfriend.
i said, sternly, emphasizing each word for him to understand.
the man stepped closer to me, staring me down.
i didn't answer. i only looked him dead in his eyes..... thinking if i should punch him already... or not.
the man scoffed before he walked back to his car.
i said to myself but i guess it was loud enough for the man to hear because he faced me once again.
he was about to grab me too but stell came out of nowhere and stood in between me and the older man.
stell cleared his throat. he stated, pointing at me.
he carefully asked, eyeing josh and i and probably noticing the chaos based on how we look like.
the man didn't bother to argue anymore and just went in his car to drive away. stell faced josh and i and sighed while putting his hands in his pockets. is he disappointed? :(
i nodded and glanced at josh who wasn't talking and only kept his head low.
stell called out, making josh slowly look up at him.
i spoke for him. i knew he was gonna say he's okay but i can clearly see that he's not.
stell asked to both of us to follow him to guidance office to talk about this matter at hand. i just hope that nothing worse happens.

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.
