Nurvati
Episode 18: Desire Gives Effect.
Being far from where Falas was, the tiger demon was hovering above Nurvati as high as 12 meters, his dark eyes were fixedly staring at Nurvati.
The demon knew, it was impossible for him to catch Nurvati empty-handed in the purple bamboo forest, moreover some bamboo faults had befallen Nurvati's limbs, he said, making a tiger demon will definitely hurt if it touches the bamboo.
Only, the demon did not run out of ideas, he again used his special abilities; the green ball of light that he now forms not only from his four hands, but from his mouth he also forms.
First of all, the five green balls of light were formed, then slowly the five balls of light were united into one ball of strong light that was full, deep green and bright.
Nurvati who was unaware of the weakness of the tiger demon was only able to fall silent, his attempt to escape apparently did not produce good results. After all, Nurvati had given up and made a promise that she would kill herself, so for her this need not be dizzy. Even his net petals began to close, his weak body fluttered, his breathing rose and fell rapidly, his mind focused on his late parents. Yes, Nurvati's mind has felt the closeness of her death that soon met her parents.
The mother who was firm and never tired of accompanying Nurvati, or the father who was always ready to fulfill all Nurvati's requests, it all became wishful thinking in his mind.
The hug of his mother who was not heeded by Nurvati, now it feels missed, all the support of his mother who used to be Nurvati considered nonsense, now began to seem so meaningful.
Or the father, who was supposed to try to invite Nurvati to travel for adventure, which Nurvati always refused even Nurvati often vilified her father, now the invitation becomes very, very valuable. Nurvati misses her parents, only they understand her.
And how foolish it is now, when death has taken the nearest, or death shows 'the grace', then Nurvati regretted her selfishness. He regretted always looking down on his parents, which, Nurvati always considered his parents were not his biological parents.
More than that, the most regretful regret is when Nurvati vented all her frustration on both parents, making her mother's father like a place to yell, even insult them, but amazingly, making her father a place to yell at her, not once did his parents scold him, not once did his parents yell at Nurvati.
Now, somehow the deepest feeling of regret, comes at times like this, as if this is the right time to reflect on living in regret.
Until the moment of surrender became his choice, when all the desire to live slowly faded, when death looked like glory, miraculously, without being overcome by the mind, the voice of a boy spread the foolish thoughts of Nurvati. Opening his net petals, hoping to see him.
“NUUURVAATIIIIIIIIII ..!” shouted the boy who was none other than Falas.
Falas shot through the air so fast, that at the blink of an eye, the demon was instantly kicked and bounced 20 meters away, not only that, its ball of explosive light, bursting so fiercely in the North, triggering a sound 'duar' which broke the loneliness of the forest, exploded right in the position of the fall of the demon, creating shocks on the ground, forming an inverted bowl-like blast beam, making the bamboo loose from its living ground, forming hot temperature, extinguishing the dark shadows of the forest.
Falas are back strong, protecting Nurvati with an egg-shaped shield covering them, protecting themselves from the radiation of the explosion, the shock is still great felt, the bamboo appears to move wildly as slapped right to left.
Nurvati who had been saved put a sense of disappointment in her soul. Twice he had been saved from the presence of death. Failing to get to death and continue living in suffering.
A few seconds passed, and the radiation of the explosion was over, and the light of the explosion was gone, the situation began to be conducive, but it was not yet confirmed safe. The protective shield has disappeared. Falas got rid of the bamboo that hit Nurvati, as much as possible to help Nurvati.
“Uhuk-uhuk.”
Realizing that Falas was holding Nurvati's left shoulder, channeling his energy to Nurvati, making Nurvati to come back strong, Nurvati who was silent in the depressing position began to rise to her feet, however, his left hand brushed off the hand of Falas who was about to help.
“I can stand alone,” ketus Nurvati without gratitude.
The talk was responded to by Falas casually without complaint. And when they had risen to stand together, Falas said, “Siluman it has a weakness, bamboo in this place it is a weakness.”
Suddenly Nurvati turned her body back, she stepped with her stupid attitude, for her, Falas' speech was not so important. Nurvati was desperate, and that was all she felt. Will it make Falas participate twist his body in rhythm with the departure of Nurvati.
“Nurvati, where are you going?” falas asked worriedly and frowned looking at Nurvati.
Nurvati who stepped back to Falas, replied, “Mau saved yourself from this madness.”
Falas who did not like to hear Nurvati's answer, hurriedly ran to him, even directly carrying Nurvati, with Nurvati's shock, the resigned Nurvati, was taken flying back by Falas.
Falas could not have let Nurvati go home alone, nor could she have allowed Nurvati to bear the burden of danger alone. But foolishly, Nurvati still did not care, she was disappointed with Falas, and only despair was still enjoyed Nurvati.
“You should have let me die,” complained Nurvati with a flat look and her mind restrained by her despair.
“I do not want your life snatched by unclean creatures like stealth ...,” Falas reply in earnest by hanging his sentence.
Nurvati was silent, her prejudice still blocked her heart even her mind was deadlocked, because at the end of her mind, only the shadow of death seemed tantalizing.
“... and please believe me,” Falas added expectantly. Falas also did not want if in fact Nurvati even dissolved in prejudice, blaming something that is not at all wrong, because it is bad.
There was no meaningful response from Nurvati, only sengap he did. Because how much he could trust a liar like Falas, lying to make Nurvati submit to him, Nurvati would not be willing to do so.
In the orange sky, the twinkling stars, and the strong wind, Falas brought Nurvati out of the forest. But, it was a bad idea, the demon targeted Nurvati, for whatever reason, which is clear, Nurvati is better to stay in the bamboo forest, because the safety in it is more guaranteed.
The actual military members rarely patrolled this forest, plus the long distance between the forest and the city, making Falas actually plan to hide in the forest, but whatever the power, Nurvati wanted to escape, he said, as a result, Falas did not want to risk the recklessness of Nurvati. In hopes of safety or the escape success of the demon, Falas flew away carrying Nurvati in anxiety.
