Niken Areline

Niken Areline
Nina Enra's


     Nina Enra is one of the best female magicians of the Minarama Kingdom. He received orders from his king to keep Niken in custody until the time of his execution began. Before leaving, Nina was equipped by the queen with a silver necklace with a heart-shaped Metta stone decoration. Although Metta stone is very rare, but the queen prefers the safety of women who have been considered as her own child. So he gave the only jewelry with Metta stone he had.


     Currently, Nina had already come along with the other witches. It was his first task to go far away from his kingdom. Tronatu is on high land, while Minarama is a kingdom on the coast.


     In the past, he had met with Niken Areline, when king Darna and his family visited the kingdom of Minarama. Even Nina had kidnapped and kissed Niken's lips at that time.


     My name is Niken, faintly remembered that moment in Nina's head at this moment. Maybe it was the age of fifteen-year-old Nina, the same age as Niken. And, he never expected that today he was assigned to look after Niken before being executed on death row.


     The first time he saw the royal palace of Tronatu, his face gawked until his mouth opened. How different this royal palace is from the palace it has. Even the houses of the residents also look more neat, orderly and luxurious with beautiful marble stones. Clearly he could not match up with what was in his kingdom. Then the party of nine witches was brought to meet the king on his throne, Kusno. They bowed in front of Kusno.


     Kusno explained some of the rules while entertaining them with sumptuous dishes. Such as lamb, lobster, fish eggs and other delicious foods presented at the long table. Two hours later, Nina and her new friends are taken to the basement, where Niken is locked up. The air feels damp and puffy. The hallway is dark and many of the rooms are uninhabited. They continued walking to the middle of the corridor. They arrive in front of Niken Areline's detention room.

     The first time Nina saw Niken, she felt calm. Clearly he knew what kind of girl he had been dating last night at Yonar beach. It's not like someone else's shadow that Niken is a terrible figure and will stare into your eyes before tearing your throat. What he saw now was, an unconscious white and dull-witted weak princess sitting in chains with Metta stone in the corner of the wall.


     Then, after the guards delivered them, the nine magicians began to stand their backs against the wall. They talked about what was in his kingdom then compared to the luxuries of this kingdom. They also know each other. Drax, Neo, Lofa, Anel, and other names are vaguely remembered by Nina. It turns out it's not just me, the witch here. Nina sat up while listening to Anel, the other female witch who was fussing about *****buffled the power of Metta's stone and the history of Larem. Anel tended to boast of the Tronatu kingdom compared to his own passive kingdom.


     Half an hour later, Nina heard the sound of an iron impact behind her. The sound of chains that might rub against each other. Nina looked up, in that darkness, Nina saw that Niken had opened her eyes to look at her. But his gaze was neither ferocious nor sinister, on the contrary, the princess looked sad. Nina thought that she just woke up and would not be a meaningful problem as long as the chain with the Metta stone was still binding her. Nina turned back to Niken. He tells his friends that Niken has woken up, they all look at Niken and turn back to him.


     The atmosphere that had been quiet again crowded when Anel made a funny joke about Niken to make all his friends laugh. Except for Nina, she did not feel that the weak woman behind her was worthy of being called a demon or a poor monster like Alen said. Even Nina had thought that Niken did not deserve the execution of the death penalty for the curse that was in him.


     In the commotion, Anel suddenly stopped saying. Hoek! he spewed blood from his mouth. The other nine witches, especially Nina, were surprised to see him. The piece of chain made with Metta's stone penetrated into Anel's stomach from behind. Making a little bit of his intestines out of his stomach and his torn robe. Brags! Anel fell on the damp floor immediately.

     After learning the truth her father told her, Niken's spirit returns to her body, she opens her eyes and, realizing she is still behind bars. With the nine witches standing their backs of course. They sounded like they were chatting and getting familiar with each other. However, what Niken was thinking was what she should think about Alan. As his father said, that the magic of glass balls could make him survive in the power of Metta, because of the power of love.


     Sontak Niken immediately thought of the first time he met Alan on a swing in a golden-leaved tree, until separated when Alan shouted his name with a sad look when Niken was brought into Cana by Kardi. But his mind was also divided by the death of his mother which turned out to be done by Queen Serani. Hate continues to envelop him. Do not use anger. Recalling his father's words, Niken began to take deep breaths and let out slowly to calm down.

     The slap! Suddenly Chief Niken felt heavy, then he closed his eyes and went back unconscious. Now Niken is taken into the space of his subconscious, a tree with a swing that he used to occupy. But this time the one sitting on the swing was Alan. The man was wearing a white shirt. Slowly Niken walked up to Alan from behind.


     “Hey,” she greeted Alan instantly stopped stepping right behind her.


     Alan immediately looked over, he looked at Niken, surprised and then stood up.


     “Hey,” says Alan, his face nervous. Niken's eyes, look at Alan. “Sorry, I can't take care of you.”


     “Do you like me?” to the pint Niken asked.


     Alan was silent for three seconds in shock at Niken's question. Then answer it with a loud voice.


     “Ya,” with slightly vibrating tone.


     “What time did you seriously say will take care of me?”


     “Ya,” Alan and Niken shed tears together. Their lips are also soft. Then Alan walked up to Niken, once he was in front of Niken, Alan did the same thing with what Jaka did. Alan squatted down and lowered his head before him. “I will take care of you as long as I live, princess.”


    Niken couldn't hear the words coming out of Alan's mouth. A man she had known for less than a month. The princess shut her mouth and tried to hold back her own crying voice. Then he squatted down and raised Alan's face to look at her.


     “Alan, I will be put to death today. But somehow I can enter this room continue to meet you,” said Niken. He does not realize that what he can find with Alan is the power of love between them. Alan misses Niken into a dream, while Niken misses him too. Then the effect of the glass-ball magic brought the two of them together under the Hirena tree, in his subconscious at this time.


     “I don't know,” answered. “But,” Niken turned her face away.


     “But what?”


     Then Niken looked back at Alan.


     “The first time I met my father, he told me a lot about the truth. Then she believed that I would survive today because of the glass ball magic, but that is if, if the person related to my heart love me the same I.”


     “I mean I should love you?”


     “Egois is good, but maybe it can save me now.”


     “Umm,” murmured Alan. “At that time I didn't know you, but honestly I've liked you since I painted you on a piece of paper,” he said. “Keep, as I get to know you, I'm happy. Until we split up, I was a real miss. It feels like I lost something precious, what is love?”


*


     “You kiss?” bring Niken.


      Alan's shocked.


     “What is a thank you again?” ask Alan.


     “Not,” answered “I want to give my heart to you.”


     Alan nodded, his tears falling onto the shirt. Then Alan held Niken's chin with his right hand, then kissed the beautiful princess's soft lips. They are both drowning in kisses and tears, friendly!

     On the other hand, behind the iron bars of the holding room. Niken who was unconscious and still bound by Metta's stone chain, she let out a red-colored light from her heart. The light traveled all over the part of the Metta stone chain. Then, the green flame of Metta's stone became even fainter as if its power had been lost and, then extinguished along with the red light that also disappeared. The power of love has overcome the power of Metta's stone.

     Back under the Hirena tree, where Niken and Alan are kissing. The flowers grow quickly on the grass around them. Srak, srak, a voice came from the top of the tree. They both opened their eyes and looked up.


     On the twig there, there was a Sanca snake coiling up and facing down. The large Sanca snake is black with yellow lereks on its skin. The eyes of the snake were light yellow, similar to Niken's eyeballs when the curse took hold of his body. The serpent looked at them. Niken and Alan were glued to look at her until their eyes turned completely white, they were both hypnotized. Then the snake came down and coiled to embrace the body of Alan and Niken who were unconscious.


     “Thank you for unsealing it, you guys are amazing,” said the snake in the hoarse tone of a woman. The power of magic has overcome the power of love.

     In the darkness in the holding room, Niken opened both of her eyes, a glowing yellow. Trang! He began to untie the bonds of the Metta stone chain which were no longer functional. In his view, one of the female magicians looked towards him. Maybe because of hearing the sound of the touch of the chain. Then all the witches looked at Niken. However, they did not realize that Metta's stone chain had been broken. Not long after, they turned their eyes back to the front. As if forgetting that the yellow eyeballs do not belong to Niken Areline.


     “Pled evet with glome, ane wiez li sadle.”


     “In the end I know, there is also a poor demon,” said Alen, one of the witches who stood there. He was greeted with laughter from his friends.


     Niken is smiling. Clearly, the curse takes hold of Niken's body again after the power of Metta's stone is lost by the power of love between Alan and Niken. Now that Niken had removed the chain, he stood looking at the nine witches. The power of magic has overcome the power of love. The evil curse controls Niken's body completely.


     Then, Niken's right hand fingers moved, the piece of chain below it lifted up flying easily. Floating between his knees. With a slight movement of her fingers, the broken end of the chain shot out from behind and quickly pierced through the waist of one of the female mages before her.


     Brags! The witch, known as Alen, fell instantly. Suddenly all the other witches who were beside him were startled and immediately looked towards Niken again.
