Last God
The Holy Grail Installation







Dul Karim's blood dripped onto the stone floor. One hand closed the wound so that not much blood came out. Lieutenant Anwar swiftly treats Dul Karim, while the others pursue Don Lee. New taupan came from another room.

"I'm sorry, I went in the wrong hallway" Taupan said.

"They're going there!" point Anwar's lieutenant towards Gugun and Abe chases. Taupan hastened.

"We have a hostage! we have planted this bomb! Let us get out of this place?" carlos yelled and pulled Della and grabbed her. Kontan Rudiat did not accept and was upset not playing. But he could only thrash in Hendra's arms.

"Please!" scream Della.

Taupan arrived and immediately understood the situation. Lieutenant Anwar contacted the pilot and reported an order to open a box in the trunk of the plane.

Don Lee appears while carrying a grimacing, frightened Della at point-blank.

Suddenly something moving very quickly snatched away Don Lee's gun and Carlos's rifle. Both of them were shocked and his hands were empty all of a sudden. Taupan not a wasted opportunity. He hit Carlos and Don Lee. Carlos did not dodge, he was kicked in the chest and fell. But Don Lee can dodge and fight. Taupan and Don Lee engaged in a jotos fight from close range. Abe managed to subdue Carlos. Hendra and Yono raised their hands at the stake by Gugun. Jamil immediately retrieves the handcuff keys from Hendra and breaks away.

Finally Don Lee fell down with a single blow and Gani pointed at him with a gun that was seized earlier from Don Lee's own hands. It turns out that Gani was the decisive defeat of Don Lee.

"I know what you're looking for in this place, but baby, the Holy Grail is gone. Crushed and buried" said Gani with a grin.

Dul Karim's blood dripped onto the stone floor as it burned and billowed smoke. Lieutenant Anwar and Dul Karim find it strange. Taupan felt a heavy wet air like coming storming from all directions. Gani blingsatan's.

***

The Princess' tears did not fall to the floor. Bondan realizes that when he accidentally sees the tears of the Princess who fell. The Princess' tears were floating and seemed to be very light.

"Master, Princess, see? The Princess's tears did not fall. But drifting," said Bondan and the princess who was satisfied crying so pay attention to the tears that float.

The Princess was shocked and looked at Bondan. The two looked at each other strangely.

The tears that floated and rolled in the air were like heading towards the center of the room slowly. Bondan aimed a flashlight and it turned out, a chalice made of crystal stone was stunned in a moist flat stone in the middle of the room. The tears swirled with other water droplets next to the cup/clear cup, surrounding the cup.

"Holy Grail?" muttered Bondan in admiration.

"Is this the Holy Grail?"

"well, I myself have never seen this before" replied the Princess.

Bondan also looked up. It turned out, right above the cup was a very precise stone cone. Like an upside down pyramid and dripping water. Surprisingly, the water droplets did not fall down. But it floated and swirled around that already full cup.

"The Holy Grail that invites doom, the Holy Grail that makes me live eternally," the Princess murmured with mixed feelings, between amazement and horror.

"I want to accompany you to the eternal life of the Princess, there is much I want to do in this world" Bondan said with a fixed gaze towards the Grail. Clear cup with sparkling clean water.

The princess was silent and did not know what to do.

***

Slowly then, the stone walls began to shake, Don Lee and Carlos were already in handcuffs.

A swarm of smoke approached Dul Karim and seeped into Dul Karim's body through the wound on his neck. Suddenly Dul Karim felt an excruciating pain. Lieutenant Anwar could only watch the strangeness without being able to do anything about it. The entire hallway and the stone palace complex trembled violently.

"It looks like this place is going to collapse! Come quickly!" gugun shouted as he led the men out. Taupan turned around, something called out to him. He remembered the path to the cloaked figure. He ran and soon reached the end of the hall where the cloaked figure stood. It turned out that in reality, the figure was shrunken and small/jenglot. But the aura of Kanuragan science is getting bigger and swirling around the figure. The black cloak of Taupan open and scattered were the auras of hatred and screams of dissatisfaction made Taupan numbness and noise made Taupan close his ears. The stone walls shook violently and almost collapsed. Taupan immediately grabbed the shrill figure of the body and took it away. The stone walls were broken and the floor collapsed.

Bondan grabbed the Holy Grail and slowly with confidence, he drank it.

"That's why you're Bondan, you don't understand the suffering of eternal life, do you?"

"I know what I'm doing, I accept all the consequences, come on! I'll show you the outside world, Princess," Bondan said. At that time, slowly the Princess saw Bondan's eyes glittering, all her skin looked wet fresh like dewy. It seemed like the holy water was starting to react.

Bondan felt a tremendous freshness burst into every cell throughout his body. Seems like the earthquake happened again.

"earthquake! Let's get your father's body, we'll bury it properly" Bondan said. But the Princess shook her head and grabbed Bondan.

"No, let Father be here, this is what he wants and there is no time" said the Princess as she pulled Bondan and took him to jump out. Hurry, that's fast.

***

Bondan realized in a dim room that only relied on lighting from a small bamboo torch attached to the ground wall. From a lying position he slightly raised his head and found a shadow of a woman who was stunned.

"Akh, the shadow alone is beautiful, ouch," muttered Bondan then realized the eel is bumpy and painful.

"You were struck by a rock and unconscious" the soft voice broke the silence. Cold stone floor, shivering body.

"Thank you Princess,"

"Call me Kemala" said the Princess softly and blankly from sitting near the door she had deliberately opened.

Tied weakly, Bondan's bachelor soul protests loudly and thrashes behind his pants pocket. But when compared to the ability to jump the Princess, he is nothing.

"I know every inch of this hill, thousands of years, it turns out that I have lived alone on this hill for thousands of years. Until you come up with weird clothes, weird language and weird tools. I was thinking, what my life is for," said the Princess Kemala with a tone of poignancy and cynicism to herself.

"But Mr-"

"I beg you! do not call the Lord or the Princess! Call me Kemala!" cut Kemala with emphasis on meaning.

"I'm sorry, Kemala, you're not alone, there's me, am I not immortal now?" bondan.

"For what? why are you following the immortals? I just want to die!" said Kemala with a high emotional tone.

"I swear, no matter what, I'll take you out of this hill" Bondan said.

"There's a magical fence that keeps me from breaking through!"

"You see, I stay here, keep you company" said Bondan. This time I looked at Bondan. A foreign man who suddenly volunteered to accompany her on this cursed hill.

"Do you have no family? Your life must mean something to them, to those who love you, they are waiting for you to come home" Kemala said as he turned back.

A moment of quiet enveloping.

Bondan approached Kemala who was busy leaning against the door.

"My father was lost in a faraway continent, my mother left. There is news, he is married again. I live alone in a museum" Bondan said as he was.

"From childhood, I was so excited, I dreamed of finding the lost continent of Atlantis. Father told me a lot about the luxurious and fertile life of the prosperous land of Atlantea. Beautiful canals and clean water throughout the year, peaceful cool air, abundant natural wealth, the strength of the war fleet, extraordinary advances in metal purification technology. It turns out that right now, I'm with the crown princess of the Atlantean kingdom. The ruler of the continent of Atlantis. It's weird, but this is my goal, this is what I want in my life. And well, I managed to prove the existence of the continent of Atlantis with its greatest Nation, the Kingdom of Atlantea,"

"But for what, there's nothing left."

"No, not so, this I can tell the world, historical relics can be excavated, studied on the bright side, for the betterment of human civilization today. After all, the stone age and the metal age are better than the plastic age."

"Plastic times??" kemala said full of wonder. Bondan smiled, and did not want to explain what plastic was. Maybe later, if there is a better time. Now the Princess is running away, and somehow she can convince him that eternal life must be fun.

"Later to explain, what plastic is. Oh yes, may I know, what are the characteristics of people who managed to live eternally?" tanya Bondan switched the conversation.

"Let's know, you'll feel it too. It's night, are you hungry?"

"yes" replied Bondan.

It turned out that the immortal humans also felt hungry

"I have a fish, let's burn it" Kemala said, rising. Bondan wakes up and follows.

"Then, a long time ago, the first time I got lost in the woods, I almost starved to death. I ate the leaves until poisoning. I ate anything, until I finally met the snake and killed it with this sword and ate it raw."

"Oh yes Kemala, how did you know at first that you were immortal."

Kemala sat down and stabbed the fish with the grill.

"When I tried to kill myself. You can imagine how hard it is to live alone in a forest. I tried to kill myself by dropping into the abyss."

"Then?" welcome Bondan can not wait to hear the continuation of the story Kemala.

"I'm fine. Not even a blister,"

"Wow! Buty? how can I still bang ya," said Bondan while touching his bumpy and bruised temple.

"Maybe you drink plain water" said Kemala with a little funny smile on the plain face of Bondan. However, Kemala is female and has a normal view on the opposite sex. Bondan turns out to be handsome and seems like a nice guy.

"Or maybe, not yet fully reacted. It seems to need a process,"

Dul Karim sat pensively on a rock. The wound was treated and wrapped in bandages. Dul Karim felt his body getting fresher and stronger ever since that strange aura permeated his body. He hasn't told anyone yet. So did Taupan, he felt his body was filled with strength. People started to arrive. SAR team, local village officials and special invitation of lieutenant Anwar, National Archaeological Agency.

Lieutenant Anwar was chatting with the four young men.

"You guys are very lucky, we can make sure, you will get special scholarships and bonuses of course. The treasure trove you find down there will pay off the debt of the state and become capital for our nation to become a nation that builds. Congratulations, yes" said lieutenant Anwar. Jamil and friends are happy not to be overcast.

"You're heroes now."

Finally what was waiting came. Two helicopters from the National archaeological agency.

Lieutenant Anwar greeted him with a smile. A pitak-haired old man immediately greeted lieutenant Anwar and asked him to speak together.

"Are you sure of what you said, Lieutenant?" he said it contained a doubtful and wry look.

"Well, we have to dare to rewrite history. I know, you guys didn't go on excavations and just made this place a tourist spot for fear that the international community was against it. But the truth must be revealed. Whatever the risk," Lieutenant Anwar said.

"Ah, I don't know, maybe it's just my feeling, I trust you lieutenant."

"Yes, I want to make tea, the trip here must be tiring" said lieutenant Anwar.
