Beginning & End - June 8
Chapter IX - Warmth

Inside the hall

"you are finally aware of Captain Rush" said Martis, vice-captain I, who turned his hand toward Rusty

"what happened to me? " ask Rusty in a daze

Rusty who held Martis' hand to rise from the shattered floor was hard to stand up properly

"don't talk to the captain yet, it's not good for your current condition"

"captain are you okay?" ellia's soft voice with a mimic that was quite worried about the condition of the captain due to the duel earlier.

"oh Ellia, I'm fine" said Rusty in a faint voice

"mad Akintut it, but I just ask to take over aja. instead the captain made bonyok gini" muttered Ellia in his heart.

The atmosphere of the Hall was quiet and quiet it made Rusty many questions, although only a few were answered by the two representatives.

"let's get our Captain upstairs, my stomach is already hungry than the other Cronites have been there to enjoy the final meal of the meeting"

Rusty, who was walking with Martis' support, walked slowly to the elevator to the upper floor of the dining room with the Cronites.

Slowly Rusty began to remember what happened just before he lay on the shattered floor.

"*huuff... " Rusty sighed quite long

"what's the captain?" tanya Martis looked at her captain who was breathing heavily*.

"anoo Martis, Ellia, am I not worthy enough to be called Captain Cronites Indonesia? Wasn't I too weak before Haruma just now, not even 2 seconds I held out against him" Rusty said in a still limp voice

"it looks like you still have a lot to train captain, I'm the same. We are like a grain of sand and Haruma is an ocean, maybe that's how our power differs from him" Martis said slowly

"hmmm, we are not the weak captain, but Akio is indeed very strong. I think he's a lot stronger than he used to be" said Ellia, who pressed her cheeks with both hands

"have you known HARUMA Ellia from the past?" rusty said curiously seeing the two of them look very familiar

"because when I saw Akio at your desk earlier, I thought you guys were close enough"

"heemm, how well captain.I knew him when 5 years ago anyway, when he saved me from Pires attack in Makassar"

"Why didn't you ever tell me about Haruma Ellia?" ask Rusty

"he he he I have not been brave enough to reveal the identity of the captain, I can die if I tell his figure" said Ellia nervously.

***

The top floor of the PCI, where they eat together.

"it's terrible, how could Akio be the legendary Haruma" said Juke, thinking hard

"already, which is already well. Most good dong if he's HARUMA, we are close friends Akio certainly also become close friends HARUMA hahaha" laughter can not be separated from Airi.

Airi who sensed the rain that was going down strangely just before the meeting started earlier, slightly began to understand. Because he felt something the same sensation when every HARUMA acted and disappeared, no wonder with his presence that appears in PCI today.

The sound of classical instruments filling the room slowly became more lively, and the sound of people adorning the PCI building became better.

***

Kiruna, Sweden.

The atmosphere full of darkness and destruction in the area of Kiruna city is evidence of the battle of Cronites and Pires that has occurred.

The great fortresses that the Pires were building as their place of life were almost finished. Those who hoped for a place for the Pires would finally come true for the Bhagiah ruler of Pires, after a long time they finally began to appear in the world. They are no longer hiding in the far north island, those who began to prepare for war with humanity, especially the Crow Nites, which made him pushed back because of his defeat 4 years ago.

"Haruma.I look forward to your return gha ghaha" full of eerie laughter came out from the black mouth of Bhagiah.

Sunday, 3 March 2020.

Bandung, Indonesia's.

Tok tok, the sound of knocking on the door slowly.

"iyaa, a moment.." the middle-aged woman's soft voice.

"Akiooo," said Akio's mother happily.

"uwooowwww ibuu, as usual always beautiful well" said Akio teasing his mother

"aahhhh you could have, son, uh there was neng Ellia too anyway, let's go in first"

With Ellia's smile at Akio's mother who greeted him, he began to enter the house with Akio.

"Mother dong, I haven't tasted Mom's cooking for a long time"

"far to come, instead of bringing souvenirs instead of asking to eat hufftt" said Akio's mother while pinching Akio's left cheek with his anxiety

"ehhhh there is Akioo with Ellia, have not met for a long time" said Akio's brother with a happy face

"ehhh Eki, long time no see my brother" Akio replied as he greeted his brother

Eki also sat down to join his sister and Ellia in the living room. Akio's mother had gone to the kitchen to cook and prepare food, because of her son's request.

"how's your business, brother? Is smooth? Is it okay? Or how sis? hahaha"

"well, as usual, there is still no change that dominates but enough to make my life allowance in the future"

Ellia who was just sitting quietly next to Akio, did not want to disturb the meeting of the sister and brother.

"excuse me sister Eki, I want to help your aunt first continue the conversation" said Ellia gently.

Ellia stood up and walked slightly to the kitchen to help Akio's mother.

"widihhhh seems to have fixed the choice" said Eki's brother teasing his sister

"you are indeed a pretty compatible couple, well even though you still love monkeys anyway hahaha but still keep it well"

"could you hahaha, you are well brother marry not long ago, hunt your old man later"

"hahaha, slow relax kio kio anyways I'm still 24 years old, could be dangerous if I start early marriage" said Eki with laughter

The food that was ready on the dining table also gave off a pleasant aroma to the living room, Akio and Eki who smelled it rushed to the dining room without having to wait for mother to call.

"widiihhh is delicious" said Akio

"well know that my favorite food mother, mother-made catfish pindang is the best" Akio happily praised his mother

"had sat there gih, we ate together well" said the soft mother

Mother, Eki, Akio, and Ellie eat the food on the table with greed, especially Akio who devoured to leave the fish bones on the plate.

After eating, Akio who sat down drooped from the satiety displayed an expression like a fool. Ellia who was still eating saw that Akio was smiling, holding back her laughter as if she could not bear the expression she had put out.

After they all finished eating, Akio who looked at his mother for a moment began to talk about his return later that afternoon, mother only smiled as if it was ordinary. Although actually his mother still wants to linger with her son, because he must enter school tomorrow.

"busy, the father was sending greetings to mother, he said father misses Mother" said Akio teasing

Although it was only made by Akio only to tempt his mother who had almost a month did not meet because of a job that could not be left by his mother.

"hhh just send greetings, tell your father if you want to drop it yahh tipped the cake money, do not tinker greetings continue" gently said mother while cleaning the dirty dishes on the table.

"Akioo, you take good care of Ellia well, because I've been fitting with Neng Ellia, don't you hurt her like your father used to be me" said Baper's mother.

"hahaha ready buk, it's safe that I keep him to death, owhhhh" said Akio with a silly face because of his better speech.

Ellia who felt a warmth with this atmosphere, smiled loosely in hope towards Akio. Because their relationship is no longer dating is unknown to her mother and sister.
