Pendekar Nusantara
Trouble

Afternoon.

Aska, Raka, Yasa and Citta were looking at the sunday sunday without speaking a word. It seemed like the twilight sun made them unwind the fatigue they felt.

The sun is almost setting. Citta immediately returned home and Yasa stayed over because Ki Salawi was not around.

"Huhoo... Today felt very tiring from the previous days," Raka said sighing.

Aska just kept silent still staring at the mountain until sunset.

***

The night has arrived.

Aska is training her dance moves, given that her main goal is to find people in the book to practice strengthening her abilities. While Raka and Yasa sit relaxing in the emperor's house.

Suddenly some children came running from a distance.

"Sir Rakaaa... Brother Rakaaa..," cried the little boy as he ran towards Ki Salawi's house.

Raka and Yasa were surprised to hear the voice of the little boy and immediately went over.

"What's wrong? What?" raka said in panic.

"Sister, those people are walking here" said the little boy with breathless breath.

Hearing the little boy's words, Raka and Yasa immediately panicked.

"Hurry and come home" said Raka.

The little children ran straight home.

Aska approached Raka and Yasa as she was astonished to see them so panicked.

"What's wrong?" ask Ask.

"Don't ask first. Come along, we go first from here," said Raka embracing Aska.

Raka and Yasa bring Aska into the middle of the rice field to hide.

"What is this Raka Yasa?" ask Aska to panic.

"It was silent first" said Raka.

"Yes what's wrong? Why should we hide?" aska.

Aska was upset and her blood went up because they did not tell her what situation was going on.

"Shuutts... They came" Raka whispered.

From the direction of the village came a group of people who were quite a lot carrying torches. By the time they were near Ki Salawi's house, they threw the torch he carried to Ki Salawi's house.

"Whatis that? Who're they? Why are they throwing torches at Grandpa's house?" aska was angry and full of frustration.

"Where are you going? Shut up, don't be rash" said Raka.

"You go there. You see clearly Grandpa's house is on fire, why stay quiet and even hide here" said Aska angry.

"Aska be patient, shut up for a minute. Do you remember what Grandpa said? Don't make trouble. This is what Grandpa meant" Yasa said.

"But those who make trouble first" Aska said.

"This is Aska squat first. For now be quiet first.I will explain," said Yasa pulled Aska's arm.

Ask also complied and hid with frustration until his blood boiled to see Ki Salawi's house burned. Aska is upset with herself for not knowing and not understanding the situation.

The group of people not only burned down Ki Salawi's house, they also ransacked the yard and scratched the fence.

***

Mega green disappears and appears mega white. The morning had come, just a few more taps of the rising sun.

Aska, Raka and Yasa return home. Aska daydreamed how useless she was to see her own teacher's house burned to the ground without doing anything.

Citta came running to see Ki Salawi's house burned down.

"They're coming again?" asked Citta with a breath of breath.

"Yes" replied Yasa.

"How many people?" ask Citta.

"This time is more than ever" Yasa said.

Citta looked around the burning house.

Seeing Aska sitting daydreaming, Yasa approached her.

"Aska there's something I want to tell you" Yasa said.

He turned towards Yasa.

"We are chatting in the saung there," Yasa said as he pointed.

Ask to follow Yasa. Because Aska felt that Yasa would tell her the situation.

***

Arriving at one of the pesawahan.

"What's wrong?" ask Aska curiously.

"I want to tell you why last night happened" Yasa said.

"How's the story?" ask Ask.

"Twenty-five years ago there were five strange creatures from another world messing around in this rural area" Yasa said.

"Awhile... What does this strange creature from another world mean?" tanya Aska cut off Yasa's words.

"I don't know, either, because it happened twenty-five years ago. We are not even born yet. Listen to the story until it's finished don't cut it," said Yasa annoyed.

"Yes, go on" said Aska.

"Well, the five strange creatures have destroyed many villages to get to this village. Many royal forces tried to stop the strange creature even until the previous King of the kingdom of Sunda Galuh and Prabu Siliwangi intervened, at that time Prabu Siliwangi was not yet King. However, the strength of the creature was so strong that it overwhelmed the entire royal army and the warriors who helped fight. At the time when everyone had run out of energy, came a warrior out of nowhere. The warrior fights the five creatures alone. There is a fierce fight between a swordsman and five strange creatures from another world and witnessed directly by all people in the area. After a long fight, it finally ended and won the swordsman. The warrior who defeated the strange creature from another world was Grandpa" Yasa said.

"Hah Grandpa," said Aska surprised.

"Yes Grandpa. Actually, Grandpa's arrival here is just a coincidence, because Grandpa wants to build a house in this village. After Grandpa defeated the strange creature, Grandpa's name became famous throughout the Earth Nusantara through word of mouth. Well, from there Grandpa is famous for his magic and many people who come to study to become Grandpa's student. Even until the sons of the daughters of the royal nobles came. However, not a single person was accepted to be Grandpa's disciple. A few years later Prabu Siliwangi brought his first son Raden Walawaksang and asked Grandpa to make his disciple, but Grandpa refused the request. Prabu Siliwalangi received with a spacious chest. Then a few years later again brought his second daughter Nyai Rarasantang, still rejected until Raden Kiansantangpun rejected Grandpa. Whereas at that time Raden Kiansantang was quite powerful when he was seven years old. Here is the problem. Eight years later after Raden Kiansantang, Rai Prabu Siliwangi Amuk Marukul came to bring his son Raden Surawisesa who was seven years old and asked his son to be made a disciple of Grandpa. However, Grandpa refused the request. Even to the point of offering many treasures and lands Grandfather refused. At that time Amuk Marukul left with anger. And that's why Amuk Marukul hired people last night to kill Grandpa. They were people from the panther union group. They come here every few months and always burn Grandpa's house" Raka said.

"Keep why didn't Grandpa fight back?" ask Aska annoyed.

"It's not over yet" Yasa said.

"One week later after the arrival of Amuk Marukul, the three of us I, Raka the same Citta came to Grandpa's house. We've been friends since childhood. It was also me, Raka the same Citta rejected Grandpa. The three of us sat quietly in Grandpa's courtyard until one day and one night. The next day we fell asleep in Grandpa's yard. Then Grandpa moved us into his house and we were taught pencak Silat. Well, a week later a group of people came to burn Grandpa's house, and at that time there was only Me, Raka and Grandpa, because Citta came home. Grandpa took us out of the house while we were sleeping. Then one month later, a group of people came to burn down Grandpa's house. At that time I was the same Raka was willing to fight but was blocked by Grandpa. He said there was no need to fuss over small things" Yasa said.

"What little thing? They burned down Grandpa's house, and Grandpa said it was a small thing" Aska said furiously.

"Yes... After that we rebuilt his house. Because Grandpa said building a house is also part of the training because it takes strength, ability and patience" said Yasa.

"So until recently, if they came and burned down Grandpa's house was common. Tomorrow we rebuild the house again" said Yasa.

"Keep the villagers how about this incident? Isn't Grandpa the elder here?" ask Ask.

"The residents were also angry. But Grandpa said not to think about it. So until now it has been used," said Yasa.

Hearing Yasa's last words, Aska was confused as to what to do and what to react to this event, due to Ki Salawi's difficult attitude to understand.

After finishing the story, Aska and Yasa return to Ki Salawi's house which is burned down.
