No one's POV:

"Regina?"

When she thought that she wouldn't fight back, Oh she was very wrong.

Valentina hissed and pushed her hard on the ground.

The snakes from her head were hissing as well, She eyed me and started running.

I stood up and tried avoiding her sudden attacks, She didn't want to attack back.

"Regina, Please stop." She pleaded while Valentina only laughed.

"Too late." Darna used her speed, Trying to make Valentina dizzy so she wouldn't have to hurt her.

Valentina groaned loudly at her actions.

"Stop fooling me, 'Bat ayaw mong lumaban?!"

Darna was slowly getting tired from all the running and decided to face her.

"Regina, Ako 'to. Itigil mona ito."

"I don't know what you're talking about, So stop making me angry!" Both of them were circling around the area, While eyeing one another.

"Si Narda, Yung kaibigan mo? Ako yun. Hindi mona ako kilala?" At this point, She didn't care if anyone heard her say that.

She just wanted Regina back.

"Shut up! Wala akong kilalang Narda."

Her plan was to make Regina tired, She can't hurt her. She doesn't have the guts to do that.

But why? Why can't she just fight her back? She didn't have a problem fighting others,

But this is not just Valentina we're talking about, This is Regina also.

"Re- Valentina, Or whatever you want me to call you, Itigil mona ito. Ayaw kitang saktan." Valentina laughed sarcastically.

"You don't want to hurt me? Oh please, If you're trying to trick me, Then it's surely not working."

"Totoo ang sinasabi ko!" Suddenly, Valentina was next to her.

She got carried away with talking and didn't realize that Valentina was getting closer without her noticing.

Valentina punched her jaw, Then grabbed her by the wrist and pushed her hard enough to crash on a wall.

"Why are you suddenly weak, Darna? Ang lakas mo makipag laban sa ibang tao, Pero ang tamlay mo 'pag dating saakin. Nawawalan ako ng ganang kalabanin ka."

She stood up from the ground, And Valentina was only inches away when she looked up.

She grabbed her by the neck.

"I've been waiting for this moment for so long," Valentina grinned at the sight of Darna slowly losing her breath.

"Now that you're under my grip, I'll make sure that this will be the last time na magkikita tayo." Valentina giggled and the grip on her neck got tighter.

"As much as I hate to end this so soon, I-" She gave up on trying to loosen her hands on her neck, So she pulled her instead and hugged her tight.

Valentina's eyes widened and loosened her grip away from her.

That smell...

That strong smell, It was too familiar.

She wondered if it was actually her.

"I'm here Regina, Hindi ako lalayo sayo."

"You never scared me, I'm so sorry to those people who tried hurting you before."

The snakes on her head were slowly disappearing, While her greenish scale like skin was fading away as well.

A tear streamed down Valentina's face.

Valentina herself didn't know that she could shed a tear, Yet here she is, Kayakap ang kaniyang kaaway.

Or maybe she was the only one who looked at Darna like an enemy.

Valentina's head started aching again, Causing her to pull away from the hug. She yelled loudly while tears started pouring from her eyes.

"Valentina?"

Valentina started to panic, Hindi niya alam kung bakit bigla siyang natakot.

She decided to shut her eyes instead, Now she was afraid to wander her eyes.

"Valentina, Okay kalang?" Darna, Or Narda herself was comforting her by holding her tight.

She opened her eyes slowly, And her eyes widened.

"D-Darna?! 'Bat ako andito? Where's Ali?!" She panicked.

"Regina, Ako 'to. Hindi mo kilala boses ko?" That smell, And that voice.

It all finally made sense.

"Custodio?" Narda smiled.

"Akala ko hindi mona ako kilala."

"Teka.. Ikaw, Ikaw si Darna? Yung babaeng lumilipad?" She nodded her head.

"Bakit ako andito?"

"Alis muna tayo dito bago ako mag paliwanag."

"Paano tayo aalis, Hindi ko nga alam ang lugar na ito."

"Lilipad tayo." Aya niya habang lumaki mga mata ni Regina.

"Anong lilipad, Nasisiraan kaba?! Baka mahulog ako!"

"Saakin?" Regina blinked.

"Huh? A-Anong.. You know what, Lets just go. Ang daming nangyayari, My head cant process this." Narda laughed at the fuming girl next to her.

"Tara?" She lowered herself (Kahit mas maliit siya) While waiting for the girl.

She rolled her eyes and slowly went on her back.

"I'm warning you, If i fa- NARDA TEKA LANG!" She yelled as Narda already flew.

Regina's grip on Narda tightened, Not wanting to look down on the ground.

"Buksan mo mata mo."

"Ikaw nalang! Ayaw ko!"

"Bilis na, Hindi naman kita hahayaang mahulog... Sa iba." She mumbled the last part.

And with that, Unti-unti niyang binuksan ang kaniyang mga mata.

She was right, It was wonderful up here.

"Ganda, Noh?" Regina smiled secretly.

"Ang ganda mo."

"Huh?"

"Hotdog..?"

"Kailan pa naging joker si Regina Vanguardia?" Narda laughed.

"Ngayon lang, So don't you dare say this to anyone." They both laughed.

They'll surely treasure this moment for a long time.
