ORION
Sneaking In Silently

Gisan sat down while contemplating something with a piece of paper in his hand. He sometimes lay on the wooden chair with his eyes closed. He also remembered something that was his own.

A memory that still holds.

The war that should have been long over, counted about decades in which the border became a struggle between two countries. Gisan there as a young armed soldier, actually had to die horribly when he wanted to get out of the trench.

The bullet rain came from the air attack. It was clear who would survive, everything that was below instantly disappeared. Recalling that terrible thing, Gisan did not know what to say anymore.

“Auntie, am I really alive?”

Aunt who then sat down with snacks and tea replied, “I don't know what you're talking about.”

“I've actually been dead a long time, haven't I?” ask Gisan which he is very sure of.

“Whatever you think, Gisan.”

“Auntie, I'm asking for her certainty right now. I'm sure that I'm long dead, but then I come back to life, right?”

His aunt fell silent with question marks, though she thought that such a thing was impossible but the existence of Gisan that had not changed for decades had become a real physical proof.

“Ha ...,”

Aunty let out a long sigh, as if she was still reluctant to answer Gisan's question, the only family still alive, at least at this moment.

“Yes, that's right what you said, Gisan. You should have been dead a long time ago, then you came back with the same face and body as those decades.” My aunt finally said it.

“True 'right? As I suspected,” said Gisan while saving the piece of paper back into his pants pocket.

“Yes, I'm so surprised to see you're alive. For a moment I couldn't believe it but only you have this kind of stout face and body, I didn't misunderstand you, Gisan.”

“Same as you, bi. I was also shocked to see the aunt who had changed drastically. But it turns out that I came back to life with the same stature, right?” said Gisan, frowning. It seems he still does not believe it.

Aunty stroked Gisan's back gently and quietly, as she smiled a smile, saying, “It is true that you came back with no change at all. But is this a miracle? Or curses? What exactly happened to you?”

To be honest Gisan himself was still confused as to how to say it. Ever since he met Orion, he knew clearly that the man was in his memory but he did not know where it was.

Gisan could only keep quiet, and hope it was just a fantasy but when he got a letter from Orion telling the clarity, then Gisan understood and re-thought what had happened to him. Including his own death.

“Actually, bi. I met someone who could be said to be very strange. The reason might be because of him.”

Gisan who still could not tell it, he then moved from his seat.

“Where are you going?” ask auntie with a ketus. He stood up and accidentally stepped on the foot of Gisan.

“I'll be gone for a while, bi. It won't be long,” replied Gisan.

“Wait, do you intend to meet someone who is the reason you came back to life again?” thought aunt, she held Gisan's arm so as not to leave.

“Iya. Just for a second. I promise to be back,” said Gisan reassured. He persuaded his aunt to get permission to immediately go to meet Orion more precisely.

“Yakin?”

“Ya, aunty.”

Kruger Gisan, a fallen former soldier, has now risen to repay the debt of the man who saved him.

This life, it won't be wasted. Not like the old days who just fought without knowing anything.

“I go.”

Gisan stepped away leaving the narrow house that was in the corner of the city. Remembering the house he had long left at the end of the border, Gisan had thought long whether the house was still there or not.

Also consider the state of the sea, the wind then the cliffs that have long changed for decades. Gisan thought of all that while traveling to the border.

“All my fallen comrades, trenches and weapons that have long been eliminated, blood that has been fused with sand. Hm, I still remember the shadow when my dog licked.”

Woof!

During the trip, he was not alone. He was with a dog who became his pet. The dog had once met the Orion group, his body was already large but with a still spoiled attitude, Gisan remembered very well that this dog was his pet dog.

“Come go!”

***

Early morning, the border. The long-abandoned Gisan House. Now it is inhabited by two people. Orion and Wama.

“Wama, have you woken up?”

“Candy.”

“Hm? You're asking for more candy? Can't do. Yesterday you ate a lot of candy, even until my two hands were full. Later I will give it again after everything is done,” said Orion.

“Ho ..” Just this first time Orion heard another Wama remark.

Just by hearing that, Orion was instantly shocked. Then laugh unconsciously.

“Alright, the ship already exists. The rest just need to wait for him to come.”

“Thank you, Sir! You have bought my ship, but it is rare for anyone to use such a small ship.”

“Already, sir. Don't call me Lord of all. After all this ship is quite fit for two people,” Orion replied to a grandfather who was a shipbuilder.

“But are you sure? With this big guy?” he asked, What Grandpa said is not wrong.

If the great Wama were to board the same small ship as Orion, then the ship would be destroyed in an instant.

Before answering, Orion seemed to be holding back a laugh.

“Quietly, what I invited was not this big man but someone else.”

Towards the end of the journey;

A man came in all-covered clothes, approaching Orion who was in front of his house.

“Oh, I've been waiting for you, Kruger Gisan.”

Orion smiled in welcome. Gisan returned his smile in a friendly manner.

“You gave this on purpose, I'm sure meeting in person will make things clear,” Gisan said as he thrust a folded sheet of paper at Orion.

“Candy?”

Wama who was about to grab the sheet was then stopped by Orion by blocking it.

“Wama, this is not candy. So don't bother,” Orion said, then he received a piece of paper that Gisan had proffered.

“Yes, I give you what you want to know. But who would have thought, we will meet the condition of the body intact. Haha!”

“If you laugh so, it looks terrible. You should have considered how I felt when I saw there was a burning corpse until there was a bone left in front of the eyes,” said Gisan.

“Already, the evidence that you came back to life is strange. It's natural to see me burn but not die. This is indeed against the laws of nature, let's go in.”

Orion invites Gisan to go inside to his own house, to talk about something very important.

“You live in my house without my permission? Really brave,“ said Gisan.

“Consider the bonus I got after making you rise from the dead,” Orion said.

“What are you really an angel?”

“Which is possible, I am still a human being who even still needs you to do my mission,” Orion said.

Gisan closed his eyes for a moment, then looked back to listen to what Orion would say.

“Then, what can I help?” ask Gisan.

***

At 5 a.m. The sun has not fully risen, the sky is still dark even though it is gradually starting to light up. The sea current is calm, sailing now is not a problem.

However, there is someone who has stolen the start early that is the second unit in the reconnaissance mission. This time only two people, the Dharma Chief as well as Lun, his subordinates who possessed the power of the Space Separator. One day this power may come in handy to separate the real world from the replicas.

[“Say the situation.”] Gista's voice sounded from the Dharma Chief's earphones.

For a moment he was stunned, turning the direction of his gaze for a moment in an instant.

“There has been no movement,” replied the Dharma Chairman, in a soft whisper.

It has been 30 minutes since the Dharma Chief with Lun came here quietly. They did not use ordinary ships but swam for hundreds of meters, although it was time consuming, but the Dharma Chief made use of the place that would become the meeting ground later to be investigated more deeply.

Meanwhile, Lun, still in her position, turned her back to the Chameleon residence in the form of this stilt house.

[“Truly nothing?”] ask Gista again. He tried to make sure that the Dharma Leader did not miss a single speck.

Then the Dharma Chairman tried to expand his field of view, occasionally contacting Lun who was in a position of strict alert to know all possible movements exist. Even if it was only an animal or an insect, the Dharma Leader told Lun to stay alert.

[“Leader, this forest has absolutely no wild animals. Yes, except insects.”] Lun tried to look around, saying what she often saw but still did not find any suspicious movement from the house.

Chameleon, or his other subordinates were completely invisible. Every window was covered with curtains.

[“Leader, allow me to go inside.“] Lun asked for permission.

“No. Wait a minute.”

Hearing the order from him to keep waiting, then Lun will remember it until the next command comes later. While the Chief Dharma was lurking from the front of the house, sitting on a large tree, hiding behind chains and thick foliage, it seemed to be wary of something.

[“Don't approach him. Maybe, that's my partner.”]

“Good.”

There came a shabby-robed person who ran small but his steps were completely inaudible. With such an ability then coupled with a shabby robe made the mysterious figure camouflaged with the entire forest. The Dharma Chief had just realized it after he approached the Chameleon residence.

“If it is true he is your colleague ...Lun, hear me?”

[“Ya?”]

“Come in. Do not get involved in a fight with someone, follow the person in the cloak,” said Chairman Dharma gave orders to Lun.

[“Good, understood!”]

Gista who heard that the Chief Dharma gave Lun orders to enter then ambushed.

[“What did you say just now?”]

“I'm sorry. Just in case and we won't start a fight, calm down.”

The Chief Dharma is the most careful person, he will not pass any drop he feels is too suspicious, even though Gista says not to approach him but that does not mean the Dharma Leader will say, "yes" that easy.

He must also be aware that the figure is indeed a partner as Gista calls it.

“I'm sorry I don't seem to trust you, but this is just to be on guard. You do not understand that Chameleon can imitate anyone's face?”

[“Terajah.”]

The island is completely surrounded by the ocean. Like a remote island, in a forest that surrounds every corner of the island beautifully. Various large trees grow following other beautiful green plants.

River water flowing in the same sea water also appeared in the middle of these islands, and its location is adjacent to the residence Chameleon. Chameleon made this house. The house is quite large in size, made with trees.

Then the sky above it looks very clear, if the weather changes then this island will not happen bad because of its high position. The perfect natural fortress built by Chameleon is beautiful but also looks like a deadly cage.

“If the fight starts, others will fall into the sea. Various positions are not benefited. Once seen on the sea, you will perish. What about his grandson?”

The disadvantage of the Dharma Chair is to be too aware of all the bad things that are likely to happen.

[“Relax, Dharma Chief! I've arranged everything. And you won't fight us directly, about the weather, we can say, safe!”] Currently Gista was on his way, he spoke to the Dharma Chief who was always connected through a means of communication.

As soon as the weakness of the Chief Dharma appeared because it was too parnoan, immediately Gista said that everything had been arranged and would be fine. That way the Dharma Leader will not be hit by excessive anxiety.

***

Lun had slipped inside, he had seen his target in the form of one shabby-robed person who was sneaking around.

“I see absolutely nothing else but him. Enemy or friend?” muttered Lun while approaching slowly.

Hiding behind a wall every time someone stopped moving, Lun occasionally saw him turning his head to the right and left in turn. Seemed confused to see his movements now.

“So far I still don't know who he is. Should I get closer?”

The person then ran back after encountering the intersection, in an instant the trail disappeared out of nowhere. Lun who was faced with a forked road could only fall silent.

“Ha? She disappeared?”

Losing his tracks in an instant, Lun was careless. He then decided to immediately run away from there before there was someone who might come.

“Here Lun, Leader. The suspicious guy left quickly.”

[“So? Just get out.”]

“Ya, of course I did!”

There was no result after Lun tried to investigate the figure. But because it disappeared too quickly, Lun accidentally made him escape.

Sneaking in to investigate the existence of a suspicious figure, as well as tracing every corner in the house in just a few minutes was already very lucky, Lun was invisible to the enemy.

However, Lun himself did not think that the house was completely invisible to security cameras. You could say the Chameleon group including Chameleon who built this house did not consider at all if the enemy sneaked in.

That one meant the location obtained by Orion was really very secretive, yet somehow it could leak into Wama's hands back then.

Then the suspicious figure was, Gisan.

[“How about you?”] Orion asked through a cell phone.

“The situation is very safe. It's just that I was suspected by your colleagues, so I look for a gap in order to escape.”

[“So. All right, I get it. Continue your search, beware of traps that may exist.”]

The call was immediately interrupted once Gisan returned to motion with his silent steps. He was quite benefited by the absence of security cameras, even Chameleon subordinates were completely invisible in the early morning like this.

Orion suspects that they are all fast asleep, and that is evident by Gisan finding the location of their room.

Gisan typed in a message, [1 the woman in the room in the far right corner of the first floor.2 the man whose room was adjacent was opposite the first-floor lady's room. 1 The man who had a lot of weapons in the room was in the empty room of the second floor warehouse.]

After receiving a message from Gisan, the silent Orion watched from a distance in the forest for a moment thinking about who was in the rooms.

“The woman is definitely Sera. Then the other two might be members I've seen before, like Jinan or an official named Hendrik' is 'is it?” thought Orion.

But because he could not confirm it himself, especially using the power of fire formation would also harm himself then he could only guess according to the contents of the message from Gisan.

[Then next to the warehouse, there was a room that was quite large. Chameleon is here, anytime I can kill him.] Gisan re-typed a long message on Orion.

Orion is shocked to see a message saying Gisan will eliminate Chameleon at any time. Sounds like a professional killer.

Soon Orion sends a message to Gisan, telling him to get out of there as soon as possible.

“I'm not sure he's that reckless, Kruger Gisan. Are you sure she's fast asleep and not seeing you?” asked Orion who contacted him directly.

[“Yes, no sign of him opening his eyes. His movements are limited only ..there is a black membrane that wraps half of his body.”]

“She was completely unaware there was a Gisan? Is it because of that membrane you're talking about? There's something ...,” Orion's gum.

Orion begins to suspect something else. As Mirana is known to be another traitor, it is a god-like power that takes over the lives of every human. So Orion thought that the black membrane might have something to do, but there was something else that Chameleon was completely unconscious at the time.

“I know he's the one who's always awake. If he really fell asleep, it could have killed him but it was too risky if the boy did it.”

Thinking of many possibilities, Orion assumes that black membranes are part of his power. A kind of action is needed to master the power of its evolution more deeply. As well as using a power that he could not absorb with the help of Mirana, either way.

“Good, get out of there. I'm grateful for your help. Kruger Gisan.”

[“Ya.”]

After Gisan exits Chameleon's room, Iki awakens to notice the sound of footsteps. Though at that time Can not create the usual sound steps, Gisan walked quickly but without sound as if on tiptoes. But Iki's instinct alone is too strong, because he realized there was someone passing by.

“Who just passed?” Iki opened the door of the barn, the place where he rested. His face was slightly pale, both knees were still in recovery condition, the injury was fatal enough to harm him so to walk alone required extra effort.

“I see no trace. Could it be Mr Chameleon?” Thinking so, then Iki peeked out from behind the window, making sure the state of his master.

“No. He was still asleep with his energy maximized. The focus will not be easily broken, even realizing my existence is not,” said Iki who then went from there.

Taps, tap!

Iki took a fixed step with suspicion, every time he glanced in a quiet direction at every door in sight, Iki felt that something was strange.

“Did I miss something? Gawat, if this house is found out then ..finish our history.”

As Iki suspected related to someone who might sneak in, not just anyone but Orion and his colleagues.

The house has been leaked. While the only ones who know the existence of this house are Chameleon and his friends and Mr. Lunar Eclipse. If considering a Lunar Eclipse is dead, then it should be suspected that Chameleon's own counterpart but Iki himself does not believe.

“Chameleon branch was on average filled with people with strong ambitions. It is not uncommon to meet traitors of other former groups. But look at what happens later, will something bad happen to them?” Ken muttered.

One of the people related to the Lunar Eclipse, the Priest Emblem led by Saint named Ken. Only this person could be the cause of the possibility of island information leaking to the enemy side.

Why did Ken do it? No one knows.

“I gave it to Wama, so Wama will give it to Chameleon's enemies. Ah, pretty good scenario.”

***

When Iki realizes that Ken may have been the cause of the island's leaked information, he rushes to the room of each of his other colleagues.

“Hey, wakeup!! You idiot! Jinan!”

He opened the doors of every room, Jinan, Hendrik and Sera. Iki shouted but as much as possible did not make a noise.

The Dharma leader who had been lurking from the front of the house was then surprised by a tall man running up the stairs after he had gone down to the ground floor. At first glance, his face was anxious and panicked.

“Don't get caught? Hey, Lun!”

“Yes? I have returned,” replied Lun who suddenly appeared under him.

“What are you doing?” ask the Chief Dharma while pointing at Chameleon's house.

“No. I swear it wasn't me. It's possible that guy,” thought Lun.

“I'm grateful it's not because of you,” said Chairman Dharma heaved a sigh of relief.

Immediately the Dharma Chief reported on the situation that was currently occurring. Intending to enter but Gista gives him orders to remain silent without saying why. In addition, Gista et al will soon reach the island.
