The inauguration of the culvert continues again even though the rain begins to fall. After the performance of the capital singer finished, they arrived at the peak event, which was a demo of a tool they bought from the blue country. Tools that are in the fields as a flood solution breaker for the Elite Hamlet area. Some visitors to the event decided to go home because of the increasingly heavy rain, the organizers remained on the original schedule to demo the latest technology water suction equipment from the blue country. With a proud and arrogant attitude the Elders of the Elite Hamlet immediately ordered the technicians from the blue country to prepare everything. One of them is to open the north canal door so that there is a puddle of water that can be sucked.

"Are you really sure Mr. Hasta. It's the high seas when the door is opened there's a lot of water coming in to land."

"Just calm Sultan, we have a reliable technician and do not forget this suction tool has a speed beyond human reason. We bought it at a price with high quality from the country of blue."

"We know that your tools are expensive but that's not what we're worried about, this is seawater we can't predict."

"There is no need to interfere Mr. Juan, this has nothing to do with Undayan Hamlet."

"How does this have nothing to do when the north canal door is opened the sea water will not only soak your Hamlet but also our Hamlet."

"That's your problem if you don't believe in this tool. But we elite Hamlet residents believe in the capabilities of this tool. So don't interfere here, just look if you want to."

"You guys..."

"Already Mr. Juan, they won't listen to us."

"Sultan should we go to a higher place first, if they open the canal door this area will be in the first lunge of sea water."

"What about what I asked Trisno for?"

"Utusan has contacted all residents of Undayan hamlet are being evacuated and technicians from the spatial office are also on their way here."

"Good, the location of Undayan village surrounded by Elite Hamlet will take time until the sea water reaches Undayan Hamlet. Hopefully the evacuation will be over soon, and we'll see what they do with their tools of pride."

"True Sultan, let's immediately rush to move to a higher area."

"Certainly Trisno and let Pak Juan and Pak Kasep we must immediately get out of here do not worry about the residents of Undayan Hamlet the evacuation team has evacuated them."

"Both Sultan Lor."in the "Honored Ladies and gentlemen let's go straight to the summit, when the canal door will be opened. We will see how great this tool can work, do not be surprised if you will see a miracle later. A tool as small as this will be able to conquer sea water. Let's get ready to see. Well the technician opened the canal door just a little bit so that the sea water can get in here so we can see the magic of this tool."

Immediately after the cue from the Director of the door kana downgraded. Like a flood when the waters of the sea scatter inland, tons and tons of water spill over everything in front of it. The location of the event that had been beautiful by luxurious decorations turned to a melt in the north sea water. There is no preparation that memadah to take refuge they are greedy by believing in the man-made tool. Never mind sucking sea water even the tool is swept by sea water can not function anymore. Everyone panicked the originally fun and exhilarating event turned gripping. Many residents were swept away by the northern sea water. Luxury cars parked neatly in the event court even some rolled and washed away in the water. Like a tsunami that hits land, the north sea water cannot be dammed into the land. When panicked cries sounded in the middle of the northern water lurking, many people were swept away by the sea water. One of them is Dari princess of the Commander. When he was about to save himself to a higher area, his dance hand apart from the grasp of the father, his small body was washed away by water. The father tried to grab the hand of Dance but the power of the water was much greater Dance carried away the water away from the father. The mother shouted loudly calling out her daughter's name. Everything happened quickly without any human time to prepare. That is the power of nature, remember nature does not belong to humans but humans belong to nature just like other natural inhabitants. The greed and arrogance of man will destroy man himself.

A few kilometers from the scene in a cave on the edge of the canal door were 4 children who were sheltering from heavy rain. They did not know what was happening above them, without thinking that their decision was right by taking refuge in the cave. If they go home, they will also be swept away by the north sea water that enters when the north canal door is opened.

"See the river water why did the color of the river water change?"

"Rightly usually when heavy rain river water will be brown. That's why it's blue like seawater."

"That's Pri seawater."

"Did you say Ji? Sea water? How the sea water got in here, the whole north has been covered by high dikes, no."

"Maybe it's Pri's sea rob flood schedule."

"No way Dung, rob floods do not occur every year, usually only once every 5 years. And remember last year we had a rob flood."

"Aji's right this Dung isn't a rob flood. Something wrong happened at the canal door."

"Whatever it is we'd better stay here, friends outside are too dangerous."

"Good decision we don't go back to Hamlet, this cave is much safer than our current hamlet I guess."

"Then what about the residents of Undayan Hamlet, are they okay?""

"We just pray, Dung, now that's all we can do. Let us leave it to the Creator of the Universe."

"That's right, may the Creator of the Universe protect our family."

For a moment I heard a voice for help. Asih tried to listen again afraid when he heard wrong.

"Please..."

Sure enough it was a cry for help, immediately he told the brother.

"Mas Asih heard a cry for help."

"Are you sure deck?"

"Know I'll try to calm down a little later will be heard."

The four of them quietly tried to listen to the voice, and again a voice for help was heard.

"Please..."

They were simultaneously looking for the origin of the sound, although the sound was only heard the same because it was covered in the sound of a small river. They were convinced that it was a voice asking for help. Immediately they combed the area around the small river. While being focused on searching in the area of the small river Aji accidentally saw a large tree that jutted towards the small river. There a little girl was hanging on one of the branches that led to the river. Instantly Aji jumped out of the cave while yelling at his sister and 2 friends.

"You guys keep the cave remember don't come out, I'm the one who saved the kid."

"But Ji saw that the river flow was so swift that it could also sweep you away. That's dangerous Aji."

"Yes Aji, don't go there Asih is afraid of mas."

"Your grandfather here used to be the same as Dudung mas Jupri. Mas ndak (not) will be long, and calm mas can swim well plus he's a little girl like you mas ndak (no) can let it drift. Believe me I will be back with the little girl, you just pray for the Asih deck. Understood."

"Yes, um."

"Dude, Pri. Titip deck Asih yes."

"Yes Ji be careful of you."

"Yes." Yeah."

Kaliaji tried his hardest to descend carefully. The heavy rain made the dirt road they were riding on became slippery. By holding on to the tree branches along the road, Aji finally reached down close to the tree held by the girl. With Aji slowly climbing the tree, the condition of the tree which is also exposed to rain water makes it slippery. Several times Aji slipped while trying to climb the tree. After a long effort, Aji finally reached the base of the branch that jutted into the river. For a moment he cradled how strong this branch was when he rode it. The branch at the base is quite large and sturdy the problem is getting to the end of the smaller branch plus there are some small branches that are leafy and there the girl is.

"There's no other way, I have to get to the end of this branch. The boy was no longer strong. CAN YOU HEAR ME?"

The girl nodded.

"WELL DON'T WORRY I'LL HELP YOU, HOLD ON TIGHT TO THE BRANCH UNTIL I REACH YOUR PLACE. UNDERSTAND."

The girl nodded back. Kaliaji crawled back to the end of the branch. Slowly because he was afraid the branch would break. After trying hard, Aji reached the end of the branch where the girl was. Aji immediately reached out to the child. With great difficulty the girl grabbed Aji's hand. When felt their hands firmly holding Aji immediately pulled the girl onto the branch.

"Let's just shift to a bigger branch, too small to break at any time."

With the body still shaking the girl crawled towards the bigger branch assisted by Aji who continued to hold her. They slowly descended from the tree carefully.

"We must immediately go up there, here it is not safe to be anytime a small river overflows. Can you still walk?"

The girl nodded back.

"Hold my hand I'll take me there in the cave there's my sister with 2 of my friends like you're with my sister. You'll be safe up there."

Back the girl nodded, she held tightly onto Aji's hand which led her up towards the cave. The slippery road repeatedly made the boy slip, thanks to the help of Aji the boy was able to reach the cave immediately. When they were on the lips of the cave at once the flood came crashing like a tsunami to soak up everything. Just a few minutes late can make Aji and the girl drift away. It was fortunate that they arrived at the cave in time that it kept them safe.

Seriate..
