CHAPTER II

Sabrina was about to jump into the water when Mang Tommy grabbed her arm.

Sabrina noticed that he was quietly staring at the water and immediately looked at what he was staring at.

The surroundings were silent for a few moments before they slowly backed away, and a large crocodile suddenly appeared. The crocodile's mouth was just inches away from Sabrina's foot, but thanks to Mang Tommy's help, she dodged it.

He lit up the girl again, and they saw that she was unconscious and bleeding into the water due to the crocodile's bite. "What are we going to do now?"Sabrina asked to Mang Tommy, observing their surroundings. "We need to save her, I feel like she's still alive."

"But the water is too dangerous. What if something happens to you again." Mang Tommy said with a worried face.

"I can handle it, I have a plan." Sabrina said.

"L-lola, w-why are they t-taking so long?" Ching asked the old woman. "I don't know, child, but hopefully, they're okay. Let's pray for them." A few moments later, they heard footsteps coming from where Sabrina and Mang Tommy went. "T-there they a-are." Ching said with excitement.

"Yes, the Lord heard our prayers. Thank you, Lord," Lola said with a smile, crossing herself. "L-lola, w-why are they s-standing?" Ching asked, stuttering. The surroundings were dark, and the only flashlight they had was with Sabrina and Mang Tommy. They couldn't see the person in front of them, but there was a faint light.

A few seconds passed, and the person still didn't move until the two felt pain in their heads and suddenly fell. They didn't realize they had been hit with a hard object on the back of their heads, which made them sleep.

All their belongings and food were taken, and the people they thought were Mang Tommy and Sabrina left. The two were left unconscious and leaning on their base.

Mang Tommy jumped to the other side of the platform to distract the crocodile. Sabrina signaled him, and he nodded. Mang Tommy started pounding to get the crocodile's attention.

Just as they were about to jump out of the water, Sabrina felt pain in her palm due to her wound. She dropped the girl, and some of their belongings fell. Mang Tommy noticed the water flowing towards Sabrina, so he pounded harder to distract the crocodile, but it didn't come back.

"Be careful, Sabrina, the crocodile is coming!" Mang Tommy shouted while pounding.

Mang Tommy noticed a broken electrical wire. "I have a plan, Sabrina, I'll distract the crocodile again, and then you swim."

"Be careful, Mang Tommy. Argh," Sabrina said, trying not to feel the pain and carrying the girl. Luckily, the girl was light and not hard to lift, but the crocodile was approaching.

Mang Tommy looked for a sharp object, cut his palm, and dripped his blood into the water. The crocodile immediately smelled it and swam towards him. Mang Tommy suddenly remembered he had a lighter in his pocket and thought of what to do to kill the crocodile.

While Mang Tommy distracted the crocodile, Sabrina quickly swam towards the platform. She was just a few feet away from the platform when her foot got tangled in a rope underwater. It was pulling her down, and she quickly let go of the girl.

She was drowning and couldn't see anything, so she swam downwards and removed the rope tangled around her foot. She quickly removed it and grabbed the girl again, swimming towards the platform.

When they reached the platform, Sabrina coughed up a lot of water while bending over. After coughing, she slowly turned the girl over. What am I going to do? Ah, whatever.

She clasped her hands together and slowly pressed them against the girl's chest, pumping it repeatedly. The girl suddenly woke up and spat out water. "W-where am I."

"I saved you, are you okay?" Sabrina asked. "Thank you for your help, ate," the girl said, hugging Sabrina.

Sabrina was surprised and smiled, then suddenly remembered Mang Tommy. She immediately stood up. "Mang Tommy! Mang Tommy! Where are you?" Sabrina asked worriedly, crying and feeling scared that no one answered.

A few seconds later, the place suddenly exploded. "Mang Tommy!" Sabrina shouted loudly, tears streaming down her face. The girl stood up, and Sabrina was helped to stand. "We need to leave now, ate, there's nothing we can do."
