REALNESS


Five minutes before the tragedy.


"What are we going to do now, Kang?" jaka asked shortly after arriving at a field behind the pesantren.


"Now just sit down first" answered Darto briefly, "Maung .. can you do to yourself?" Darto turned his head towards Maung after sitting cross-legged.


"Can, Dar," Maung replied with a straight look, he looked at his interlocutor with eyes that did not shake at all.


"I once proposed getting rid of everyone we saw, right?" tanya Darto while looking at Jaka, Komang, Sastro and Wajana alternately.


The four men simply nodded to answer Darto's question. They did not open their voices, and waited for the continuation of the explanation that Darto would throw.


"That's completely wrong .. do you realize? everyone we meet really has no difference with everyone we have met," said Darto at length.


Everyone nodded back.


"But even though it's the same, you never get angry with them, do you?" Darto asked now.


Everyone looked up to recall the meeting with everyone they had met over the past nine days.


After quite daydreaming, they almost simultaneously answered with a slumber, even Jaka replied with the sentence, "Yes, Kang .. whereas usually Si Mbok angry if Jaka was late to pray, but the last nine days, but the last nine days, when he was angry, even Jaka wasn't awakened despite the ashar adhan."


"You're right, Jak. The world is too perfect for us to visit. Anyone who gets us into this world is truly an extraordinary creature. They can peek at every memory and guess the will of our hearts" Darto explained.


"Truely said Darto, everything is not supposed to be met. They're not real, but we don't have to kill them to get out of this place" Maung said.


"really so. They do live in this place, which should not be here it's all of us" Darto said.


From the words that Darto said, Sastro, Komang and Wajana immediately rounded their eyes, they could immediately catch what Darto wanted to say.


But not to Jaka, he still looked confused. Until he re-opens the voice, "I mean, Kang?"


"We all just need to leave this world, Jak," replied Darto briefly.


"Kang's way?" Jaka is still very confused.


"What are you confused about, Jak? The one whose name died instead of leaving the world?" mama asked trying to explain.


"Ha! You guys said we should die?!" yelled Jaka surprised.


"I didn't know it was going to work or not, but it's the only answer that's most appropriate in my opinion, and I was also surprised when Maung said he knew the way out," Darto seemed a little riled up.


"I met Eyang, Dar. In my memory that Eyang was a figure who had no gaps, he was a great figure, even in this world exactly the same. You know what he said when I came into this world? Eyang immediately said if this is not my place," said Maung as he looked at the ceiling.


"Well, it's lucky you have a lead, maung. Now I'm more sure again" Darto smiled slightly, "So you guys want to stay here, or die with me and Maung?" darto asked.


"I'm coming" said Komang.


"It's obvious, isn't it, Dar?" Sastro chuckles.


"You're telling me to live alone without anyone I know? Oh can't .. It's better to fail while trying, than to be cowardly and lonely afterwards" said Wajana.


Wajana's words really melted the tension, Jaka who was originally shaking also seemed to start to calm down, he took a deep breath then said, "If remembered, I've risked my life many times without budging, already, but why would I be afraid just to know that I'm going to die soon?"


"Nobody doesn't feel your feelings, Jak. Everyone must be afraid, but we still have to bet, because our families wait there," said Darto smiling, with one arm stroking the coarse hair of Jaka.


"Now we sit close together, just close your eyes" asked Darto.


No one answered Darto's request, they immediately shifted from their original sitting position, and sat in a meeting position until crowded.


After everyone had sat in an adjacent position and closed their eyes, Darto turned to Maung and said, "Maung ... Please do it as fast as you can."


"Well! Why was this heavy duty given to me!" grumbling Maung with trembling hands. He felt very depressed because he saw the five faces of the man close to him, had to fall down and fall due to the attack from his hands.


Not to mention Maung had to end his own life. The five men were lucky, not having to know when the moments of pain would come, but not for Maung.


Although he closed his eyes, he knew that his nails would stick on his body.


But even so, Maung is not a coward. Maung actually stabbed his own sharp fingernails towards the chest. He reached into her heart, then pulled as hard as he could.


Back then, the six men who had come from another world, had actually left that world together.


They choose to die and hope to return to a world that requires them to fight, rather than having to live with the million perfections that the world has to offer.


****


Just as Maung slashed the necks of his five comrades, that second also their consciousness returned to their true bodies.


Darto, Jaka, Komang, Sastro and Wajana came first, followed by Maung who came a little late.


They were actually back in a dark place that had an absolute black color all over.


When they returned, their bodies were completely immovable. There was something holding their bodies in that dark place.


"Dar! It's a net, Dar!" maung said right after returning to the place.


"You can see here, Maung?" tanya Jaka was astonished.


"You forgot? I'm the owner of the darkness in the oldest forest" Maung replied as she tried to untie her body.


"Jak, try to use your energy here" said Darto.


Jaka directly coated his body with a blazing red energy. One by one the net that wrapped Jaka's body began to burn, then slowly Jaka fell from the air.


"I'm gone, Kang!" Shouted Jaka from below.


"Strike up with your energy, Jak," Maung pinta.


Jaka immediately complied, he threw a fireball in a row, towards the top of his head.


There was a sound of something falling in the room. One by one his friends escaped from the bonds of the net, which wrapped them until they became like cocoons hanging over the air.


"Have it all come down?" Ask Jaka.


"Already, Jak .. but Sastro, Wajana and Komang fainted," Maung said as he tried to lift three friends who were drooping on the ground.


"Dar, Jak .. please take care of them, I'm taking three of our friends out of this right first" Maung said.


"They're who?" asked Darto while looking at all directions, but his eyes could not catch any sightings.


Hearing that, Maung just kept quiet and rushed closer to Darto and Jaka. He ran very fast while lifting his three friends, on his shoulders.


Without a warning Maung rubbed the eyes of Darto and Jaka while saying, "Now you can definitely see everything."


Right after Maung rubbed Darto and Jaka's eyes. The two men could immediately see everything in the dark place.


Dozens of caterpillar-shaped creatures were lined up along the viewing eye. They stick sticky to walls and ceilings, with a body size almost the same as that of an adult horse.
