Sapphire City's
Chapter 8: Secret Headquarters Under Building
Riding a car around the city of Bandung on Sunday night, it is common. But riding in a car on an unusual night like this is an unexpected experience. Even when viewed from the window, everything outside was completely unusual. Everyone became stone statues, vehicles piled on the streets like time stopped, the night felt very gloomy and did, lights in various places all died, except one. Crystal blue light, like the one Yuda found in the bimbel classroom. The light illuminated part of the city. Except for the black shadow standing in one of the city buildings. Staring with a terrifying aura.
“do not look out” too long
Mirna sat down beside Yuda. In front were two men, one of whom was in the driver's seat.
“there you will even see something that will be imagined in your life”
Mirna's way of speaking, in contrast to Mirna who was known while still at school.
“sorry I want to ask, actually what is going on?” Ask Yuda.
Mirna threw away her face and stared out “I can't explain it, later when it comes, you will get all the answers you want to ask”
“then in fact, where are we going?”
“markas, a place to address this problem”
Everything was confusing, Mirna did not answer the question from Judah, as if she was not the right place to ask what was going on here. But even ordinary people still want to know the clarity at this time about what is happening.
Once the car drove under the Antapai flyover, but could not continue to drive along the road, the car took the cipaganti road, to take the route of the cut road entering the cihampelas. It was forced to do so, because the entrance to the covered overpass was jammed. That was the information that Yuda heard from the driver of the car.
Cipaganti street, a path colored by large trees along the way. Makes this road very cool even in the dry season, but because there are no lights on, the effect when being hit by the wilderness, plus the sound of a tiger's roar? For a moment Judah was silent, there could be no tiger in the path of cipaganti, what might escape from the zoo, but when out of the bimbel, Judah saw not only humans who became stone statues, but when they came out, even cats have their effects.
“apa may white tiger” grun male front seat.
“kanya” Mirna.
“how to fight?” Ask driver.
“jangan” said Mirna “white tiger is more dangerous than piggy, moreover surely the white tiger is a commonling, the three of us alone will not be enough against it, he said, in addition” Mirna glanced at Yuda “mission we are bringing survivor safely kecaparkas”
“ok, if so this will be a report on the presence of white tigers in the road cipaganti”
“but not necessarily a white tiger, this is still an assumption” advises Mirna.
Yuda caught their conversation carefully, white tiger, incarnation. It feels strange to hear it. Emang Yuda had heard that sometimes there like the incarnations of certain creatures. How can it all feel real. If you recall the previous incident, the pig sped the real time. So the white tiger they mean is real?.
The car came out of the antapani flyway, greeted with a gasibu field. Even lapanga even though there are statues of people who are in the middle of sports or just hanging out there. The car turned around the gasibu field, until the building satay seen in front of the eyes of Yuda. At the bottom of the satellite, there was a blue light that was so bright, even brighter than the one that Judah was carrying. The car drove around the building satay, until they reached the gate behind the building sate. Two heavily armed guards made a gate for them.
“eh, the intended headquarters in gedung sate?” Ask Yuda confused.
“bak” replied Mirna “more precisely under building sate”
Yuda confusion, ‘under building sate’. Where there is such a thing. But the car continues to drive the baseman parking lot, for the ages of Judah never came to the building satay, even though now there is a museum that can be visited, still he has never.
The car stopped, stayed empty. The driver opened the car window, then showed something from his right arm like a clock on an empty wall, at first Yuda thought there was nothing, to the point that a small white screen suddenly appeared just like that from an empty wall

All of a sudden that all the walls were empty, rising up like a gate, resulting in a secret passage route.
The car moved back inside.
The glass walls welcomed the arrival of Judah's entourage, it was clear what was inside the walls.Many humans were not turned to stone, most of them were like the age of Judah or perhaps less. Not only that, they all have different activities. Eating, sports, computer programs, martial arts, shooting exercises, there are even dueling exercises. All of these activities were extremely unable to get in front of Judah's eyes. It was as if they were all preparing for something.
The car stopped in a large parking lot. There was some complete security with firearms like the gatekeeper of the sate building, Yuda observed around there were at least some black private cars, the army trucks numbered three, and there were at least a few, motor matik and non-matik about 20-30. Everything is neat and ready to use at any time.
“we both returned to the main room to report the situation” two young men who were sitting in the front seat of the car left Yuda and Mirna.
“then you come with me”
Judah followed Mirna's words without asking, because he himself did not know what to do in a place that not even everyone knew.
Yuda and Mirna enter a long hallway, the walls of a cream-colored hallway plus every door that passes feel like there are secrets inside, because the iron door of the pair there is no carving except the sign above it. Such as consultation rooms, treatment rooms, canteens, training rooms and others that cannot be read by Yuda. But even though the impression of the hallway is somehow like a hospital, but there are still many people of various ages, they also wear unique clothes.
Mirna who leads the road turns to the left, at the end of which there are two doors with a board that reads ‘ waiting room survivor’. He opens the door. There are about 20-25 people. They are of different ages and like from different places, men and women are there.
“you wait here, until later someone calls”
Mirna went and closed the door. Leave Judah with those who look the same as Judah.
“hei were you the last”, he said.
“last means?” Yuda could not yet digest her words.
The last “ saved, we are all here called survivors by them, probably because we are the ones who escaped the stone” man
“oohh, if that's not known, Mirna doesn't call me the last”
“hmmm” the young man remembered something “tadi you said Mirna”
Yuda nodded.
“you know him?”
“can be said yes”
“then you know what is going on”
Yuda shook his head “he did not want to explain the details”
Youth only scratch the back head “sama aja deh, meaning only can wait”
The young man invited Yuda to sit together in one of the chairs near the wall.
“sorry forgot acquaintance, my name is Andy. Upi” Students
“Yuda, SMA Pearl Sky”
“what class?”
“two, if brother Andy majored which same year?”
“call Andy don't use sak, I'm majoring in Extraordinary education, now the second year”
Yuda felt that chatting with Andy was comfortable, he even wanted to be called sister, as if he wanted to be able to chat casually with Yuda.
“What's an outstanding education department?”
“it majors to invite children who have special needs”
“as y” Yuda hinted to Andy about what he was about to explain.
“right once, arguably while studying I have to understand children special needs, they are not like other normal students”
Then this time Yuda asked, where is Andy's position when this phenomenon occurred. Andy explained that he was on his way home from his friend's house, but in the middle of the road, just walking out of the alley, suddenly it was dark. 15 Minutes later, he was rescued.
Yuda is envious of Andy, as he does not see any strange creatures.
“Yuda also saw it, I heard from others they saw strange creatures”
“I'm not looking anymore, but meet a pig!”
Andy was surprised, it was not an unpleasant experience “still lucky you can survive, pigs ngepet it big loh”
“I still can't believe as long and now here”
The door was open, there were about 3 people dressed in ash and black suits like offices, but the aga was less formal. One of them was a white-hooded girl carrying a tablet. A man told all those in the room to line up and follow them to another room.
Yuda, Andy and the others followed the instructions of the young man.
They were all directed to a room that was located a long way away, but after entering a large alua decorated with white glass in a small garden, the dazzling rays in the garden as if as a sun substitute.
There was a person with black clothes standing facing the glass, for some reason Judah's posture and hairstyle seemed to recognize him.
Everyone had entered, the hall door was tightly shut.
“welcome to the Survivors, at Sapphire” Blue Headquarters
That person turned to face everything, Yuda was shocked to see his figure. Although only seen a few times, but Judah never forgot the figure of his face. She is Mirna's sister.[]
