The arrival of the children makes Satyr and Lana surprised. The teenagers ventured closer despite Lana's nervous appearance and chose to hide behind Satyr.
They speak in the language of mythology. Translation.
"Oh! You guys are back! Did ... you guys successfully complete the mission?" ask Satyr curious.
"Yeah! We will proceed to the next mission, level 9!" sahut Harun as he walked closer with a happy face.
"Live a little more and we can go back to Earth, Satyr!" sahut Nicolas is happy.
Instantly, Satyr's smile dimmed. The children who initially emitted smiles of happiness also bent their faces as if they knew what would happen afterwards.
"Look you've met Lana. Continue your life. You ... don't owe us anything. Gibson would understand. Better not come with us again. Just pray we are safe and can complete the mission until the last," said Kenta who made Satyr immediately lowered his face.
"Thank you for all your help, Satyr. Without you .. maybe we can't finish the mission in Hades Prison. Your knowledge is very useful. You ... smart and clever. Nice to know you," said Lazarus coming closer and extending a hand to shake.
Satyr saw the hand, but he did not welcome it. All the children were stunned when Satyr hugged Lazarus looking so sad.
"I'm gonna miss you guys so much. I will tell your story on this planet to be known by the creatures that have been met," said Satyr, releasing a hug.
"Wow! That ... would be so cool," said Mandarin looking happy.
One by one, the children hugged Satyr as a farewell greeting. Lana stood quietly behind her lover with a smile growing. Satyr reached out his hand for the lover to walk closer to him. Lana looks doubtful and awkward with the human children in front of her.
"Don't hesitate to scold him if he acts up, Lana," said Vadim, but made Satyr chuckle and so did Lana.
"I'm .. glad to see your figure in person. Honestly, I've met humans before, but. I see, the humans changed from their style of speech, dress, mannerisms and ... well, the point ...thank you for bringing the Rhythm back to me," he replied with a smile.
"Rhythm? Who?" tanya Bara was confused.
Satyr raised two eyebrows that made the children surprised to realize his name.
"You have a name? Why didn't you say?" ask Rangga wonder.
"Heh, you never ask. It's not my fault" she replied as she left her waist.
The children again try to be patient with Satyr's annoying attitude, but they will miss Satyr's figure when they have to part with him.
"Oh! Can you help us one more time?" ask Czar who made Satyr look at the young Russian was clingy.
"What's that?" tanyanya.
"Can you take us to the Dimensional Gate? We ... don't know where it is. However, we have already seen within the portal the form of that gate. The gate was heading towards a level 9 mission," replied Czar.
"I ... only heard about it for the first time," Satyr replied, looking honest.
All the children looked disappointed because they didn't know the way there either.
"I knew. I'll take you as a thank you and a farewell" said Lana suddenly who surprised Satyr.
"Wow, really? Cool. Thank you, Lana!" ryan is happy.
As Lana walked first with Satyr by her side, Boas suddenly patted the half-goat man on the shoulder. Satyr stopped his steps and looked over.
"You've tried soul mate potion on Lana?" asked Boas with a glowing face.
Satyr opened his mouth wide because he had just remembered about it. He shook his head and immediately took the potion out of his bag. Lana stops her steps when she realizes Satyr is like talking to human children.
"What's wrong?" asked Lana confusedly looking at her lover fixedly.
"Lana. Drink this, I will drink it too. This ... is a soul mate herb. Although I'm pretty sure you're my soul mate, but .. I want to prove it. You ... don't mind, do you?" it was Pinta Satyr who made Lana frown, but then nodded slowly.
Satyr looks happy. He drank the potion first and then Lana took a sip. The teenagers were made tense especially Satyr who was very curious whether the half-goat woman was really his soul mate. Suddenly, a miracle happened. Satyr's body was surrounded by a sparkle with colorful luminous flickers. Lana stepped back in surprise. However, he did not experience changes like the lover.
"Woah, look! In-he's back to being!" pekik Timo pointed at the half-goat man when he got his big horn again following pointy nails, and flutes like when he was a Satyr.
Lana looked surprised until her eyes bulged and her mouth gaped wide in silence. Satyr looks so happy because getting the original form again does not become a Faun.
"Is-this really you?" tanya Lana nervously looked at Satyr fixedly.
"It's me, of course, Lana. Have I ever lied to you before?" ask the man with the big horn.
"Em, but .. wait a minute. If not wrong, the potion only lasted for a few hours. So ... does not make you a permanent Satyr forever," said Rex remembered Jubaidah who had become a dragon, but then returned to being human.
"Huh? You mean ... This form is only temporary?!" peekik Satyr immediately released Lana's embrace.
"Sorry, Satyr. However, that's the technicality," Rex replied looking pity.
Satyr is sad again, but Lana clasps her lover's hand tightly and leaves a sweet kiss on the lips. Satyr was stunned, and so were all the teenagers who saw that.
"I still love you. You're my Satyr, you're my rhythm. Even though you turned into Faun, I still love you. This is why I became Satyr to be with you always" said Lana, who made Satyr tear up again.
"Oh, Lana," he said, visibly moved by the lover's words.
Satyr kisses his lover with love. However, the teenage boys looked awkward. Nicolas immediately whistled and some children turned their faces while scratching their heads. Lazarus smiled faintly as if it was common to him.
"Thus ... Gate Dimension?" mandarin asked grimacing because she felt uncomfortable seeing two people kissing each other in front of her.
Lana and Satyr seem to have forgotten their affection. Both nod. Lana escorts the children into the forest leaving a beanstalk. Seen, Satyr's smile was glistened as the two always joined hands. Rex and others smiled because they did not expect to create sweet memories while on the Planet of Mythology.
"Well, there it is. The Dimensional Gate" Lana said as they stopped at a gate with a stone building and overgrown with a tree nearby.
The door from the gate itself looked so terrifying as if there was an incandescent lava glow in front of it. In fact, it looks like a demon grin is ready to welcome the arrival of human children who will try out the ability to complete the mission while inside the gate. Practically, the faces of the children turned tense instantly. They looked nervous, but were ready to fight again.
"I've heard your story during the time in Hades Prison from Satyr. If you can survive there, you should also be able to escape inside the Dimensional Gate," Lana said looking solemn.
"Do you have any instructions or information regarding this gate?" ask Lazarus seriously.
Lana flipped over her body and approached the tree with golden-colored leaves. He nodded slowly, and it made everyone instantly focus on him.
"The Dimensional Gate actually takes you to places that no mythological creature has ever been before, but. It's just, the world that is visited is different from the Mythological planet or the Earth where you live," Lana explained.
"OK, then?" tanya Aaron looked serious.
"I heard, there are some beings in that dimension. They have various abilities and unusual shapes. That said, the ability of Mythological beings, taken from some of these creatures so that we become perfect creatures, not deformed and long-lived," lana replied which made Satyr and all the teenagers silent despite their tense faces.
"Don't, our guess is that if Oag were to explore and conduct experiments, there is a point. It all has to do with this gate" Ryan looked at his comrades, and the teenagers nodded slowly like one thought to him.
"So ..the mission to draw blood from those creatures seems to be related to our guesses. Hem, okay. Who's afraid? Our job here from the beginning was to hunt monsters. Sorry, Lana didn't mean to offend you by calling you monsters, but. Sometimes you like to make terms that might be painful for your people" Kenta said, but Lana just smiled in response.
"I knew. That's not a problem for me. Be carefull. They ... Unlike us who still have a human side like you. They are, purely alien beings. Only the soul of the predator is in instinct. Hopefully ... you guys make it," said Lana seriously, and all the children nodded in understanding.
"So .. is this farewell?" satyr asked as he went to the group of human children.
"Yes, Satyr. But we will always remember you. We will also tell the story during our stay here to the people. They might even think we are crazy. Heh, who cares?" sahut Vadim who made Satyr chuckle.
"alright. See you, 13 children of the devil! Conquer them and win! Come back to Earth and tell them my story so that Satyr will always be adored!" satyr exclaims a spirit that makes all children laugh because of it.
"See you later, Lana, Satyr! Thank you!" exclaimed Rangga while waving his hand.
Lana and Satyr waved back with smiles. Timo ventured to touch the door, and instantly, a box emerged from the mouth of a monster-like figure on the doorstep. Timo immediately picked it up despite looking nervous. All the children surrounded the young Filipino when he opened it. Seen, some tubes with needle tips such as syringes to store the blood of the creatures they will catch later. Timo distributed one by one the glass cylinders to his friends and then they stored them in a bag carefully.
"Goodbye, Satyr! Lana! Pray we succeed!" exclaimed Timo, and Satyr nodded steadily.
Instantly, the gate opened. A blue light like a portal appeared before the teenagers. Satyr and Lana looked amazed as if they had just seen it for the first time. Timo took a deep breath and stepped foot into the portal. One by one, the teenagers from Earth entered the portal and disappeared. The gate reappeared when none of them were left behind. Satyr and Lana looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
"They're gonna make it. I'm sure of that" insisted Satyr, and Lana nodded steadily as she agreed with her lover's thought.
