- Natoy, like any other child, finds joy and excitement in the simplest of things, especially in eating halo-halo filled with pink gelatin and red sago. Things change suddenly when, as he is watching television, a news report about the ongoing war in Mindanao shows footage of a badly wounded soldier waiting to be rescued. That soldier, almost bleeding to death, is his father, Corporal Lino Bolante. This starts his journey as he and his mother Sonia wait for help that comes too late. This story does not only show how the war in Mindanao robs a child of his innocence, but also shows the shadows of war that Filipino homes confront everyday.
- In the haunting shadows of Masbate City, the Vampira Clan reigns-a secretive and sinister group led by the enigmatic figure known only as the "Boss." Ruthless in their leadership, the Boss controls the clan with a tight grip, prioritizing loyalty and strength. Klaryl Vic Alcala, a kind-hearted member of the clan who often finds herself at odds with the Boss, grows deeply concerned when a mysterious outsider seeks to join. Klaryl is shocked when the Boss allows this new member in without following the strict initiation process that the clan usually upholds. Worried that this reckless decision could threaten their group, Klaryl tries to raise her concerns, but they are quickly dismissed. The rest of the clan, siding with the Boss, mock her worries, leaving Klaryl feeling isolated and anxious. Despite her protests, the mysterious newcomer is welcomed without question, and Klaryl's fear begins to fester. Storming off to collect herself, Klaryl leaves behind a clan reveling in her frustration. But when she returns, she is met with a chilling emptiness-all the members of the Vampira Clan have vanished without a trace. What was once a test of trust has now become a psychological nightmare. As Klaryl begins to unravel the mystery of their disappearance, she is drawn deeper into a darkness far beyond what she ever imagined. Layers of secrets and twisted truths surface, forcing her to confront an even more sinister reality-one that might cost her not just her clan, but her sanity.

A gripping exploration of fear, betrayal, and the crumbling of the mind, this featurette showcases the dark genius of John Raymund Albert F. Bargo, a.k.a. tongski, pushing the boundaries of the genre and immersing viewers in a haunting tale that lingers long after the final frame.
