Legacy Falls
The Baratayudha 4

(POV BETWEEN)

"A-Antara.. Please save my village and my friends…."

"I will definitely save you! Because I promised others!".

I was on a helicopter heading for Kerinci village. May I have time because I just heard from om Kario that the village of Kerinci was attacked.

I admit Baratayudha's troops were smart because they managed to divert all Laskara forces in Indonesia to protect their respective cities and one of the Baratayudha leaders attacked Kerinci village as their main objective.

Damnit damnit! Damnit damnit! Damnit damnit! I will not forgive! This is the second time Baratayudha's army has fed me up! This time I will kill one of its leaders and I will threaten to kill all Baratayudha troops if they act at will.

…

The day before I left for the city of Balikpapan I met the white Tiger who protected me when I got the glass of the Succinct.

I met him in the dreamland. His form as the Cindy mentioned, a white tiger with black stripes and a blue aura surrounding his body.

But the meeting between the two of us was only short because at that time I woke up because of Risa who made the bull run amok.

…

"How could you use the power of a white tiger?".

"I can't yet. We only met once in my dreamland."

"so yeah. In between, my father said if the Succas could use the power of the white tiger then he would become one of the Earthmates."

"Earthmate?".

"Yes. In this world there are 4 guardian spirits of the wind. In the North there is Genbu. South there is Suzaku. East is Seiryuu. And the last one west there is the Byakko. When these four spirits choose the person who has the ability to make bonds with other races then he will become an Earthmate and that person will be protected and given power by the guardian spirit of the wind.

"And you are one of them. You are both Earthmate and the Succinct for my Cindy race."

Sounds really cool and great. Means I'm the one who was chosen to be Earthmate right?.

"Then do you know how I can communicate with Byakko?".

"Yes I know. The way you have to concentrate fully and increase your sensitivity to white tigers. If you qualify that you can meet a white tiger in your subconscious."

"How can I fully concentrate when I'm in control of a helicopter?".

"Let me take your place between."

"But you're still—".

"Just calm! I am my Cinderella and your protector Antara! So leave it to me and you talk to the white tiger!".

Looks like I have to trust Raka more. "All right, Raka I leave it to you."

Luckily I taught Raka to drive a helicopter back then.

…

…

…

I realized in a large place but entirely white. Is this my subconscious?.

"Finally we meet again between."

A white tiger with a blue aura approached me

"Byakko, we meet again."

"I didn't think you'd see me. It must be thanks to Raka."

"You know Raka?".

"certain. Because I've been guarding my Cinders for hundreds of years."

I smile. "Byakko I need your strength."

"of course. I'll definitely help you."

"I don't need your 100% strength. I just need your protection."

"Why?".

"Because I want to finish this guy off with my last strength."

…

…

…

"Raka, thank you. I'm ready."

"North... Your eyes?".

I picked up the small glass near the helicopter control and saw my black eyes and blue eyes.

"Yes, I have the power of the Byakko."
