Map of 7 Souls: Hikma Andapi
Promise : Ep. 8

At night on the edge of the star-filled Jarsi Beach track, Dapi and Artha sat on a swing whose rope - a rope tied to a coconut tree. They were both on one swing. Sitting swinging waiting late at night to train Dapi's strength.

That night, the two of them told a light story. Artha told me about her experience who had accompanied 3 people who had the strength to be recruited. Artha told me about a few months ago he often went to Palembang to accompany someone, the 4th young man who was recruited.

The young man has telekinetic powers, can move all objects with his mind. And he also told me about the second and third youth he had met. Artha also told me about the first time her powers appeared and were trained by her father.

Dapi felt that the 18-year-old sitting next to him was an unyielding young man. From childhood he lived his destiny to save this world with his papa team. He joins more in the superhero world than hanging out with friends in a normal life like any other young person.

Artha tells the story of their nemesis who was a close friend of Om Bagas when they were young, but they have a different perception of saving the world from the hands of greed and selfishness of other humans.

They both stared at the sky with their own thoughts. Dapi thought of how to restore the situation from the disaster of his sister's abduction. While Artha contemplated the journey of life all this time. There is sadness on the face. He recalled a very bitter incident when he was 3 years old.

"Sister, tomorrow brother is still in Bali, khan?" tanya Dapi arrived - arrived.

"Yes" answered Artha briefly. The question blew his daydream.

"Tomorrow we to Tulamben Beach kak, can snorkel and dive there. I want to test my knowledge and strength on the bottom of the sea. How sis?" dapi asked Artha excitedly.

"Maybe, too" real Artha seriously.

"OKAY. I'm gonna find dad's acquaintance so we can get free lodging there."

"Yes. Must've been exciting. Bali is beautiful. It is only natural that Bali is called the Island of the Gods. There are many things and mysteries on this island of Bali."

"Yes. I am also very grateful to have been born in Bali. Pantes alone in childhood I have a memory like De Javu, it turns out this is the answer of all. Once my subconscious opens up, everything seems clear."

"Yes. And living life before our very eyes, once we get together and get recruited, there may be many longer struggles that we will go through."

"Yes." Yeah."

"Ouh yeah, I just remembered, there is one more child under our supervision in Bali. But he's 13 now. There are no signs of strength from him yet, but papa knows for sure and he was selected and will be the 7th person in our team," Artha explained.

"Ouh yeah, which part of Bali?" ask Dapi surprised. His face was curious.

"Enterprize."

"Mangupura Badung Regency?"

"Let's know, I only know Mangupura City. I was once invited by papa to see the boy from a distance. He was 10 years old at the time."

"Hm..... Apparently there's something from Bali besides me?"

"Yes." Yeah."

The wind from the sea that night was very cold. The two of them waited for a late night to begin their plan.

Artha had been carrying a large and long black backpack. The bag is like a golf bag. Inside was a bow and arrow. He was ready to carry out his actions.

At Charly's Chocolate Factory, you can see lights that glow dimly in front of houses in the area. While the other parts look more dark as in where they swing casually.

The sounds of crickets and frogs rhymed. The sound of the wind moving the leaves - the leaves of the coconut tree also add a rhythmic tone on the night that shows the authenticity of nature without noise pollution from human activities such as in the Big City.

It was cold that night. Slender. But it's so nice to relax.

Artha picked up the bow in the black bag, took it out slowly and followed by taking the arrow and the container. Then he stood not far from the swing in front of the beach. He attached an arrow to the bow, then stretched the bowstring parallel to his chest. Next slowly - the land pointed the arrow upwards and blasted the arrow with full force.

Swing.

The arrow shot out in a split second and in an instant descended the white light forming a huge umbrella slowly heading towards the ground and the surface of the sea. The white light was about 500 meters in diameter surrounding the two of them making an invisible circle (Invisible circle)

Dapi, sitting on the swing. He looked at Artha's action without saying a word and at this moment he raised his head to look at the white light that was descending slowly - the land from the sky. His face showed amazement at that.

"What are you doing tonight?" ask Artha.

"Sister can make a Fire Eagle. I want to make it like that from water. Not an eagle, but maybe a penguin or a dolphin."

He smiled as he said the last sentence. I don't know what he was thinking that made him smile.

"Why are you smiling?"

"I feel funny, brother. Because big brother can make Fire Eagle and it's so cool. While I think penguins or dolphins and it's very cute. Weird khan? There's nothing cool - it's a little cool," he explained, his body swaying spoiled.

"Where's the weirdo?"

"Not cool, brother," he explained spoiled with a distinctive voice and a cute face mimic.

Artha chuckled at the behavior of the young man in front of her. This day, how many times had the young man spontaneously let out a cute behavior. It was not intentional for him but indeed his character was like that. The young man is a man who can be happy even with small things.

"Come, stand. Focus your mind and increase your imagination" Artha commanded.

The skinny and tall, brown-skinned young man, closed his eyes. Move the fingers that are already in front of the chest.  From his right hand only stick out two fingers, namely the middle and index fingers are docked while the rest of the fingers are bent, fused in the palm of the hand. He painted something.

The sea water in front of him rippled and rose to the top, slowly it formed an animal that is a dolphin with normal size. Animals made of water, 100 percent water-based blue, jump up and down to the surface of the water. Very cheerful. It seems that the form of imagination Dapi in accordance with his character, the animal is very cheerful.

Artha saw that, then she involuntarily let out a small laugh.

Dapi turned towards Artha who was on the left.

"Kaaaaak," cried spoiled Dapi. The point is don't laugh at him with that code call.

Artha turned her face into serious fashion. Automatically the face changed in seconds so that Dapi can concentrate well.

This time even Dapi who laughed saw Artha's face. Both of his eyes narrowed due to the laughter that was released.

"What's wrong?" ask Artha.

"I just can't focus on a face like that" Dapi said. His voice sounds spoiled.

"Yes, I'm not gonna make fun of you. Staying focused. FIGHTING'S."

Back facing forward. He focused on his imagination. The water dolphins swim to and fro in the high seas.  He jumped forward with one jump. He was already standing on the beach and his feet were already submerged in the sea water as a calf.

He approached the water dolphin, which is currently swimming quietly, flapping its fins. Then turned to the offshore according to Dapi's orders and he climbed onto the back of an animal made according to his imagination. Then the beast darted forward, swimming above the surface of the water. Dapi laughs. He ordered the water dolphins to take him around on the high seas but still in an invisible cycle.

The young man who was riding the beast, then stopped. Moving his hands was like painting on a canvas. Next, one Dolphin - a water dolphin formed in front. That form of imagination swam and jumped repeatedly.

"Sister, come. I want to test my focus on controlling 2 dolphins at once."

Dapi tells Artha to ride on the back of a newly created race. He wants to train his imagination and focus skills in order to keep both water dolphins on his orders.

Artha hesitated a little." Is that gonna be okay?" he murmured in the heart. But because the young man who was on the high seas called out to him repeatedly, he also jumped with one jump closer to Dapi.

Dapi orders the Dumba - Water race to approach Artha.

The water race approached and turned around, turning its back towards Artha.

Artha was very hesitant to go up to the beast that was made in Dapi's imagination, but she tried to shake off the doubt.

At first the young man fingered the imaginary beast and stroked it. Like real, he thought. Fleshy and hard. Then he raised his lower body and sat in the water race.

Crasshs....

The clump that formed the water dolphin broke apart when he occupied it. His body fell down, into a puddle of sea water. His pants and clothes were wet.

Laugh with that action. His eyes narrowed even more but it was like a sweet smile from that laughter. He deliberately did that to tempt Artha. Not because he wasn't focused, but it was planned.

"Sorry brother," real Dapi while laughing chuckling.

"Your attention is yes" said Artha.

"Yes already. I made it again, this time serious, really, I promise," in fact really - really.

His hands were painting again in the air and the animals as per his imagination re-emerged.

Artha was not angry with what Dapi was doing, she also laughed with that silliness. After the Water Dolphin thrusts its back, Artha goes back up with caution. Maybe Dapi will prank him again, he thought. Now he's been riding on the back of the water race and trying to balance the body. Then the imaginary beast moved closer to Dapi.

"Ready?" ask Dapi.

"You need to focus. Don't let me get thrown into the middle of the sea because your focus is up. Watch out for you if that happens" Artha threatened.

"Pray me, brother."

Artha was surprised to hear Dapi's reply. His forehead wrinkled. He wanted to get an answer out of his mouth because he heard the last sentence Dapi said. However, before that happens, the water dolphins have dashed quickly, swimming at sea level.

"Yetoooooo."

Laughing with laughter - pingkal. His eyes were getting closed and as if smiling as he behaved like that. He was very happy to see the expression Artha released. Then he lightens the dolphins he rides to chase Artha.

Dapi tried to stay focused on controlling both beasts of imagination. He added a rope made of water, as if as a bridle to hold on and direct the Water Dolphins, in place of Artha, so that he would not fall. A rope made of water was wrapped around the neck of the imaginary beast he had created.

How many times have Dapi and Artha laughed at the ridiculous manner they did tonight. Their bodies are now fully soaked in salty seawater, but they are very happy to do this, like playing water in a fantasy world in normal life. Artha never did this in her life.
