Batari Word
Worst Night
Stares of bowed eyes with a weakened body.. Sitting on a wooden floor saw loved ones protecting each other.. Among them was a body wearing a mask on its face, laughing lifelessly. The heart again felt calm when hearing the news of Pureswari who had long gone straight to the palace to see the state of Caka at least make me breathe more relieved.. Walking forward to see the condition of the father with a breath that is stretched still able to stand firm with his knight sword that looks full of red stains, and Mother who holds a small sword in her hand, and the mother who holds a small sword in her hand, it amazes me to have parents like them either in this period or even in the time where I came from considering Papa and Mama who have a nature not much different from those who also look so similar to them.
“ Father, Mother.. Is it okay? Is anyone hurt?”
Kemuning who grasped the hands of Mother and looked at Ayahanda
“ We are fine.. Lucky Pureswari directly ask to be delivered directly to the palace once here.”
Said Raden Panji who was sitting tired on a chair
“ Kemuning, is there something you're hiding in this residence?”
Said Raden ayu who grasped tightly the hand kemuning
“ Ti.. There is no Mother. I don't even know what exactly is going on”
“ Looks like they want something from you. Because of all the rooms in this residence, your room is the main target they”
“ Ap.. Whahuh? But Father, kemuning really do not know anything.”
“ I know it's my son, maybe there's someone trying to frame you right now.. Kemuning, you must be more vigilant than usual until things return as usual.”
Said Raden Panji who stood back up and stared at the sharp kemuning
“ Good father, kemuning understand. Mother, what if you drive back to the palace and rest in Bale prepared Gusti Ratu for kemuning if you want to rest? Moreover, Pureswari is also already in the palace to see the condition of Caka.”
“ Very good, kemuning.. Wife, go. Kemuning, make sure safe, guard and horse carriage.”
Tell Raden Panji while pointing at the guards who already understand the meaning
“ Kemuning understand. Then, kemuning please pamit.”
He lowered his body and walked out
Some of the soldiers and maids who were still in a not-so-injured condition immediately stood guard and cleared up all this mess. Some were seen cleaning the goods back to be prepared in a horse carriage and did not wait for a long time, Mother also went to the palace in great hurry.. Yet for some reason, I felt that there was still something strange at the moment, like someone was observing us from a distance.. If nothing is left unturned in my memory back, there must be someone trying to frame me. Or indeed someone wants my position as Prabu Stira so that the person can easily approach Gusti Ratu. Someone must have missed me here, but what is it?
Unconsciously my feet stepped towards the room where I was leaning on to rest. Not only my wardrobe, everything in here is really as if it was deliberately destroyed. Walking around, I realized that my bed was not touched at all. Why did they intentionally leave this bed alone? Feeling strange, of course I finally found a tear under the mattress but it seems they did not have time to find what they were looking for because of my arrival to this room. Walking out of the room very carefully with the arrow and Sword Bow, stopped at the storage barn that seemed to look suspicious.
Silently by turning to the side without a sound, I saw 3 middle forest looters who were hiding very nicely like really no one would find them. Other than the army of palace warriors, no one was given this kind of training. Is the current condition of the palace also really very dangerous as well? But how can the servant who under oath with the palace, dare to do this even attract special soldiers of the palace to work under his influence. Were these soldiers tricked by them? I need to get the answer right now!
“ GUARDS IMMEDIATELY TO BALE DAJA, THERE IS A RE-ATTACK! SEGARA PROTECT RADEN PANJI”
Kemuning tried to distract the guards around the granary
“ GOOD WRESTLING RADEN RARA.”
Some guards ran straight away
Hiding behind the straw-covered kitchen wall cubicle, I saw the three men coming out and running back to my room. By following them and hiding back, they instantly approached the bed mattress and tore apart by force until it shattered with nothing left. But it still seems like they found nothing. Feeling annoyed, the three of them went back to inspect my room by trying not to make any movement that caused the slightest sound.. It turns out that they are indeed true troops Maha Thawara (Special Warrior) kingdom who got direct blessing by the King and Queen. But why do they get orders from people they are not supposed to serve?
“ You guys looking for something in my room?”
Say Kemuning firmly and loudly directing 2 arrows at once
“ Ciiihh! Turns out you're much smarter than our shadow”
Say one of the looters who was upset
“ You.. Maha Thawara (Special Warrior) isn't it? You are under oath before Gusti the Queen and the King. Why do rebellion?”
Kemuning increasingly running trying to approach with a sharp arrow
“ A Prabu Stira will not know the disgust of our feelings with all the power of the kingdom! So, return TASARA (Paper roll containing information) that you snatched from us!”
Said a Plunder by carrying his Sword on kemunun
“ Your bagara..?? It's me?”
“ DON'T PRETEND STUPID! It's clear you're the one who attacked and eliminated some of our troops! But, it looks like you haven't read the contents of Tasara it saw the palace and you guys are still not doing anything.”
Hearing them speak, my head returned to feeling very sick and dizzy as usual when a memory would come to a forgotten memory.. Nah! Not in this condition, I must remain awake and stand straight in front of the three of them.. However, what my memory is really like is a movie screen that rotates in my head without me agreeing. Arrived like myself at this time along with Atma and some troops who really attacked those who were passing by carrying a cart containing war equipment.. Yes, now I remember that in that wagon there were some Grenades and equipment that looked more modern. Feeling that it was the result of a black market running behind the palace name, Atma took all of the equipment and obliterated them without a single piece of evidence remaining.
It turns out that what we found was nothing like what they had been doing all this time behind the palace trying to drop or just to want to replace the position of Gusti King and Queen. In mid-visible Atma found a roll of paper that was tied using a rope from animal skin. Seeing that Atma asked me to ride a horse first towards the palace considering that Atma would be hindered for a long time by carrying a cart full of weapons equipment. But in the middle of the journey, I was again confronted by the Central Forest Looters who tried to take this scroll.
Riding a horse by running as fast as possible, finally after releasing the arrows I was able to escape from them but was again hindered by the activities of the capital that was crowded considering that the day was the ceremony of Gusti Ratu's birth day until all the people enlivened even seen the accompaniment of the march on the streets that I will not be able to pass. Finally I decided to hide it in my Bale residence and Mother came and asked me to be ready to go to the palace...
“ KEMUNING WATCH OUT!!!”
Said Atma who shouted to see a looter trying to stick his sword into the yellow
“ DIE YOU!!!”
Said a looter who was in the presence of kemuning trying to wring his neck kemuning
#TRAANGGG TRAAANGGG
#BUUKKK DHAAAKKK
The sound of swords clashing together ended with the plundering of the forest on the wood wardrobe and pierced his chest
“ BRASH!! WAIT FOR OUR RETALIATION!!”
The looters who ran jumped out through the window of the yellow room
The screaming Atma tried to chase after them
Trying to get my body back to normal as usual, I submerged my head into a jug of clean water commonly used for drinking water. Moments of trying to cool my head, I held my head up again and immediately ran back trying to chase after them.. It appears Atma is fighting 2 of the forest looters with his sword, finally I tried to straighten my arrow to one of the looters but stopped when I realized that there were 3 of the servants in Bale my residence who turned out to be the looters and spied on my family during the time this is by pretending to be one of the guards trying to draw his sword right from the side where I was standing.
Successfully avoiding and releasing one of my arrows to hit the foot of one of the forest looters, I finally could see their faces that were not covered in masks, he said, now it can be seen clearly that the mark on the face in the form of a long scratch on the cheek to the left of the three of them seemed to explain the evidence of their devotion as one of the soldiers of the middle forest looters.
“ How dare you Prabu Stira! Quickly kill us with your bow!”
Say one of the looters by dropping his sword
“ You know I must not kill you, for you must be taken hostage and taken to the palace to give your testimony. But do you know Kasim prison le..”
“ I remember the old lady who was your errand boy.. You see him? He is the one who took the life of your beloved lady with his sword.”
The looter said, pointing to one of his smiling colleagues
“ What did you say?”
Kemuning who was surprised lowered his arrow bow slightly
“ The expensive silk shawl used by the noble ladies of the kingdom, but you easily gave it to a lowly lady like her whose age was even nearing her death.. AHAHAHAAA”
Say the looter by shaking the scarf red
“ You didn't see? Look around you now surrounded by our troops. Even in..”
#SHUUUTT #SHUUUTT #SHUUUTT #SHUUUTT #SHUUUTT #SHUUUTT
#AAARRGHH # AARRGHH
The sound of arrows hitting the bodies of forest looters to fall to the ground lifeless
“ Empu endok is not a day for me. BUT SECOND MOTHER TO ME!! HYAAHHH!!”
The weeping kemuning sank his bow and switched with the knight sword in his hand running attacking the forest looters
“ KEMUNING WAIT! HOLD ANGER! YELLOWING.”
The running Atma tried to stop the kemuning who could not control his anger
No. gabe. I won't let them live one life! I don't care what punishment I'll be given to me by the Queen Gusti! This rage.. The hearts that were pierced by the burning fire arrows that they purposely embroidered would be overflowing until they would think for the umpteenth time if they wanted to attack me! I WON'T LET YOU ALL LIVE QUIETLY. In the middle of this, all, The father who saw me fighting them all alone finally tried to draw his sword by running towards me without him realizing there was a guard who was pretending to try to stab him from behind who was running my direction.. I swiftly ran towards Ayahanda with no regard for the two forest looters who were also chasing to kill me.
At first glance, one carries a sword and another carries a blunt stick-shaped object made of hard wood and stone that is commonly used by ladies to pound rice.. Realizing that, I ran so fast that I could finally save Father from the guard by jumping and directly finish him with my sword. But the looter who carried the stick ran so fast that it didn't take me a chance to dodge..
“ NO!! YELLOW!!”
Said Atma who jumped towards kemuning and hugged shut kemuning with her body
#BHUUAAKKK
The sound of a blow that hit Atma's body to unconsciousness
“ Ti, not Atma.. DIE YOU!!”
The hysterical kemuning released his arrows at the two forest looters
“ Atma see me.. Please.. Nope, no.. Atma.. Talk to me.”
Kemuning laid Atma with a little raised his head
“ Kemuning, don't move it any more. The palace physician has come here.. Kemuning, come let them help Atma.”
Said Raden Panji who pulled hands and tried to calm kemuning
Approaching mid-night, Atma who was lying with wounds on her back area looked quite severe with the presence of medicinal drugs applied to her back and she was still asleep with her face down.. The physician asked to let him rest without the slightest interruption.. Given this, Ayahanda also allowed Atma to stay at our residence and I will accompany her all night to monitor her condition.. In the middle of that Mahapatih Andaru and Raden Ayu Bhanuwati Atma's mother who get about the condition of her son also came to see the current condition of Atma.. By looking down and begging for mercy finally the thing I can do when explaining the events that are happening at this time..
But so surprised the reaction of Father and Mother Atma did not feel upset at me at all but asked me about my condition and whether I was also injured.. Moreover Mahapatih Andaru who walked by patting me softly also praised my courage for everything that happened today. Feeling more and more guilty about getting treatment I didn't imagine from them, I subconsciously tried to hold back the crying but could not cover it up again until Raden Ayu Atma's mother hugged me like a mother to her child.. After feeling calm I finally gave all the information I know to Ayahanda and also to Mahapatih Andaru who looks so surprised to hear all this..
“ Gusti Mahapatih, does Gusti think the same as the current servant?”
Said Raden Panji Andaru to Mahapatih Danudara
“ Yes, only he can do this dirty thing. Because he was also an Admiral, so he must have understood the trade routes in the palace very well.. However, who helped him?”
Said Mahapatih Danudara who looked at Raden panji in confusion
“ Servant will try to find out about this. Kemuning, as much as possible you try to remember where you put Tasara it”
Raden panji said with his head down to Mahapatih and looked back into kemuning
“ Of Ayahanda.. Then I beg you to say goodbye Gusti Mahapatih”
Kemuning who subdued his body to his father and Mahapatih
“ Kemuning, I leave my son the night to you.. Immediately notify if something happens to Atma.”
Said Raden Ayu Bhanuwati who was so worried by clutching his hand kemuning
“ Good, Gusti Raden Ayu.”
Walking into the room where I saw the man I loved lying unconscious.. This time I saw Atma like this. In the middle of the night even his body was stricken with fever to sweat quite a lot.. All I could do was wait and stay awake beside him to make up for this heart that would not be able to pay all its kindness to me. Atma, please.. As soon as I opened my eyes, I wanted to hold you just to make sure that warm breath was still blowing for me..
