The Birth of the Disaster (Part 1)

Night, the rain was very heavy complete with lightning that felt very close. A young lady in pale white like snow, her long silvery-white hair, beautiful eyes in bright light green, was struggling with all her might. She is carrying out her toughest and foremost task as a mother, giving birth. Her name was Minna Scarlet.

Scarlet is assisted by a kind witch who is willing to help her even though the whole city is supervising the birth of a pair of twins that will affect the strength and existence of the quartz. He also along with his beloved husband who is as strong as possible to make a magic sheath, which is a special and forbidden magic to be used other than in war, outside the small house where she was going to give birth at this time. Fear, confusion, turmoil but also happiness is enveloping his feelings and thoughts.

“Do not daydream! Show me your power Scatlet! We won't be able to give birth to someone with magic, so this time do well!” firmly the good-natured witch while helping Scarlet maintain the position of her legs that are in a position ready to give birth.

Scarlet screamed and with all her might pushed her baby with her uterine muscles. The witch deftly assisted in the birth of the baby and easily gave birth to Scarlet's first child. The baby's crying sound hit with the sound of rain.

“Beautiful woman, she looks like you” said the witch slightly smiled and rushed over with a cloth, then walked towards a wooden table to her right. He placed the baby from his hand carrier onto the table with a cloth pad stacked several layers. Soon he returned to his original place to welcome the second baby to be born. “I'm sure you can still, Scarlet!”

Suddenly Scarlet's mind imagined the events three months before. He remembered very well how the incident of the chief predicted that one of his children would be one of the magicians who had a talent for magic, while the other did not. That memory was the worst memory of his life. Scarlet was involuntarily crying.

Without speaking, Scarlet tried again to push her baby from inside her womb. With strength left, she managed to return to deliver her baby followed by the sound of a simple cry with her first baby. He was lying limp but still very conscious. He endured the pain and almost lost his strength altogether.

“All your children are beautiful Scarlet. Unfortunately we have to do it behind the hood of this blanket.” said the witch while continuing her duties.

“Can you do your last job, Charlote?” asked Scarlet gasping for breath, “where is my son who is not a magician?”

“You sure have to dila-”

“Now Charlote!” Scarlet started shaking and still crying, “if you worry about my wounds, I can heal it myself.”

“Alright”, Charlote put the two babies who were still crying were a bit far apart but still in the same place. “Mirsani Getih Murni”, he exclaimed towards the first born baby.

“When to go Scarlet,” said Zahid, then turned to his wife. Once he knew that Scarlet still had wounds from the labor process, he instantly cast magic, “Cure!”

Scarlet's wounds closed slowly. Scarlet seemed to be deeply enduring the pain she received during that healing process. “You're sure you're strong baby?” ask Zahid again.

Scarlet tried to get up from her sleep while reassembling her strength. “If anyone can give me more stamina for now only,”.

“I've prepared the potion. Take that! at least that's enough for you until you get there,” replied Charlote put a brown bag tied to a rope on the table next to the second baby, then again prepare the baby with a blanket to leave. “Poor baby,” whispers holding back tears.

“They're coming soon, Scalet!" said Zahid, “I can last ten minutes if they do not directly intend to kill me.”

“We parted here. May we meet again, my dear!” scarlet said while hugging her husband who was looking at her baby, “you will always be in their blood.”

Scarlet prepared herself. He took a bottle of blue ramuam from the bag that Charlote had placed earlier and drank it. He felt healthy and energized. “I picked up this bag Charlote, thank you very much for everything."

“Your baby is ready, it's the last touch,” Charlote said, “Sleep!” Magic was given to the second baby and he fell asleep. The sound of the voice telling the cry of the baby vanished into a single voice. Charlote then gave it to her mother.

“Thank you, Charlote!" reply Scarlet cradled her son with a sling, “I go now.” She then wore a thick robe assisted by her husband.

“Your horse is ready, Be careful!” Zahid.

Suddenly there was a screaming sound from outside the house but it sounded a bit far away. “Zahid, hand over your baby!” said a little male voice snapping.
