Persistence

A few hours ago, in a pretty big house. A man got off his red plate. In the dress of his greatness, the middle-aged man was greeted by the wife waiting inside.

Soon the driver who doubles as his adjutant tailed behind. With a little running, he followed the steps of his boss who had disappeared behind the door of the house. His right hand held the boss's briefcase. 

"This is my bag, ma'am" said the aide in a respectful manner to the woman before him. His hand stuck out the black-colored bag with a bow.

"Thank you" the woman replied briefly. Along with the disappearance of the adjutant, he rushed to the husband to go into the room. The husband was answering a phone call from someone. Shortly thereafter, a conversation between the two was heard.

"Hallo, what's the matter Jhoni?, tumben night - tonight call me !" 

"Sorry to interrupt, general. There's a problem with my men in the field."

"What about Jhon ?"

"Before long, I have reports that both of my men were kidnapped. I don't know their condition yet."

"Ooo. Alright, immediately I command my men to conduct a search !"

"Thank you very much, General !" 

"Don't hesitate, Jhoni.. , like we just knew !" 

"Yes, General." 

"Ooo.yeah, Jhoni. You and your two confidants must be more careful, because Interpol is hunting you !" 

"Really, general..?"

"really. This information I have not received long ago. And this is very believable."

"Why they still want us. Isn't the case over ?"

"Because you escaped from that prison. And now the security forces there are helping Interpol hunt you down !"

"That means they already know of our whereabouts !"

"True Jhoni. But you don't have to worry, I won't let them take you to trial and be held there again."

"alright. Thanks for the help and information, General !"

"Together, Jhoni !" 

Shortly, the phone connection was cut off. The wife who had just stood up and listened to her husband's conversation was approaching. The collar of her husband's oversized clothes was then put in place.

"Who's calling, sir ?" Ask the wife with a curious face. The husband who is now wearing only a T-shirt is smiling. 

"That's the Jhoni you told me about" he replied. 

"Don't he operate in Europe there ?" His wife replied a little astonished.

"At first, he did it in Europe. After she was arrested and ran away, she is now looking for her victims here, ma'am" her husband casually explained.

Soon they left the room and walked to the family dining room. They both seem to be busy with their own food. Only the sound of spoons and plates was heard.

#####

Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the field is getting crowded and gripping. In the middle of the field stopped a truck that was stopped by three trucks that had just arrived. The black truck carrying Jhoni's confidant was pinned and surrounded in the middle. 

Bruk.. bruk...

Dozens of troops in brown uniforms swiftly jumped down from the vehicle without command. Then they look for the best position to aim for. Some stood in a position to aim at the target. The long barrel rifle's popor was placed on the shoulder, while both of his hands aimed the gun's muzzle at the target. There are also those who squat even down.

"Give those two or you can't go back to your country !" 

There was no surprise from the troops in the black truck. Suddenly there was a voice that felt intimidating. Shortly after, a man came down from one of the newly arrived trucks.

"Don't approach the commander, very dangerous !" Exclaimed one of his squad members who was on standby.

"Yes, I know !" Answer's short. Shift his gaze to all members of the force who are on full alert.

"Nobody fired a shot. Wait for the aba - the aba of me !" Excited again. The black truck had no reaction.

"Once again I say. Release the two people you brought. Before my team lost patience. Whoever is the leader, please come down. I guarantee your safety !"

Again he gave an ultimatumn quite hard. He finished saying so, a man who was the leader of the troops in the black truck came down. Salute as a fellow officer he gave, before starting negotiations.

Some of his men came down and some remained on the truck. They keep an eye on and look after the two kidnappers they've been looking for for years.

"Good night, commander !" Excited the big tall man who just came down. His face and skin color are slightly pale white, does not make this man difficult to communicate using Indonesian. The Indonesian accent is very eloquent and almost perfect.

"Good night !" The commander replied in his proud brown uniform. Highlight his eyes sharply staring at his interlocutor. Although in terms of posture, it is smaller.

"Give the two men over !" It's exciting again, don't want to feel bad. This man with one star on his shoulder directed his gaze into the truck where Jarot and Kubil curled helplessly.

"can't. They were our fugitives from a few years ago. They escaped from one of the prisons in Europe !"

"If you want to bring them, let them be judged first here !"

"Sorry commanders, but their case is not only in your country. Previously they were also many victims in Europe !"

"This is our country, and they are our citizens. So let them be judged here !" 

"But commander... !" 

Instantly the atmosphere became tense as the two remained in their respective positions. The black uniformed troops who had been looking calm, were now on standby. The two armies were now aiming at each other at a very close distance.

"That's... !" The commander of the army in brown uniform. His right hand was raised to give an aba - an aba so as not to spit hot lead. The tall white man who was his interlocutor seemed to think for a moment. He did not want to be rash, considering the number of troops that were outnumbered.

"How... ? I don't have much time. My men could've fired a shot if you had been acting too long !" Excited again. His gaze returned straight to his interlocutor. His facial expression was cold and intimidating.

"All right !" Answer the big tall man. He turned his body to face his troops who were still on top of the vehicle. 

"Down those two !" Excited again. He did not want to fall victim to either side. Although it could not be covered with disappointment that emanated clearly on his face.

Soon, Jarot and Kubil walked down the military vehicle in a limp. The faces of both of them looked very tangled. Blood droplets were still visible from the wounds they had gotten.

"Take them up !" The commander shouted loudly. Shortly afterwards he approached the man before him with an expanding smile. Not to forget the warm embrace and parting handshake he gave. Then rushed both of them to their respective vehicles and left the place.

Meanwhile the four pairs of unblinking eyes watched all the scenes in the middle of the field that were going on. From behind the empty house, the four young men waited for where the two kidnappers would be taken.

"Who are the black uniformed men, Gas ?" Toni asked Bagas who had not yet moved from his place. Iwan and Riko stared at the one being asked waiting for an answer.

"If you look at the uniform, just like the uniform of the apparatus that led Jhoni and his two men when I showed the news in an article" Bagas replied remembering.

"Is that the international crime special police ?" Ask Tony again.

"Interpol. It seems so" replied Bagas confidently. His three friends were mangosteen - mangosteen. Now their attention is focused on four military vehicles that go hand in hand. Three brown trucks turned to the left. One black truck turned to the right.

"I'm afraid of us, Ko !" Toni said with a disappointed face. 

"Yes bang. But at least the two people were not taken abroad" said Riko with an optimistic smile. 

"Truly you, Ko. My feeling is that they won't be held for long !" Iwan is sure. His face was spread to his friends. 

"Yes bang. Like that night, when they were almost dead, the mob. They were rescued and taken to hospital. The next day, they are already wandering around again looking for prey" said Riko at length. Toni, Iwan and Bagas just smiled hearing Riko chattering.

A few moments later they came out of hiding. The four of them walked towards their vehicles parked in front of the empty house. The light of night and the glitter of stars bear witness to how persistent they are in discovering the existence of Typhoon and Arif.

Just as hard as the two teenagers. Fighting to survive in the wild. And persistent against enemies who are ready to prey, both humans and wild animals.
