Srikandi Tanah Pasundan
Eyes in the Dark

Sari looked at the couple who were hugging each other with tears. There is no amount of pain that must be lived by both of them with this event.

Losing two out of five children is not an easy matter for them not to mention the moral responsibility to the people of Yogyakarta for the chaos caused by their son.

"If only his ambition could be withheld," murmured Sari lirih.

"Thank you for releasing Risa!" candika said with eyes still wet.

"Just a little help den mas, um .. sorry for this messy house!" Sari was a little unwell with the inside of Candika's house that was messed up because of her fight earlier.

"Don't think about it, this is my important risk that Risa can survive. I can't live without him!" replied Candika hugging back the weak wife.

"Sari just smiled wryly at Candika's reply.

Well, if only you were not rash to be the owner of the power and success of your home would be fine denmas. And so are your two sons!

"Can we talk for a second?" Sari asked Al who could not do much to calm Risa and Candika down.

"What's wrong, mbak?" al asked as they slightly moved away from the couple.

Sari stared at the black bracelet that was still coiling in Risa's hand, then sighed for a moment.

"The dark power in the bracelet was gone but, the magic spell on the bracelet could only be broken by the Abisatya breed."

"Abisatyas? Meaning Selia?"

"Hmm, yeah. From what I heard the Abisatya family has an ancient library right? There is an ancient book that one of them contains a spell to release the heirloom bracelet," Sari again explained.

Al thought for a moment, and then he said. "Selia can find him!"

"I hope so, oh yes it is better for Al to be prepared that they will not remain silent. Them …,"

"Please do?!"

"Yes, that's it. As usual, right? This is just the beginning of the mas, a great war will take place in east Java be prepared to face seven other black shaman forces!"

"I was curious about that veiled woman, the woman I met during the tournament," 

Sari suddenly recalled the woman he thought had opened a small portal to the migration of a small portion of the demons that were fighting Pandji.

"His name is Andara, he who offers me power through black magic" Candika suddenly replied.

"In his body is also a demon, you could say he is an accomplice who spread black magic in the land of Java," he added.

Sari was silent for a moment, her inner eyes clearly seeing that veiled woman who opened the small portal. But not only Andara there are also some people who will later help the demon prince to open the portal.

"What should we do?" Candika asked again.

The sadness on his face slightly erased changed with worry. Inwardly, Candika really hopes that everything can be finished just by handing over the dead book and the body that the leader wants. Pandjis.

"I know what you're thinking, but it's not going to happen! I will not hand over my son or the book to them!" Al stared at Candika sharply, breaking Candika's expectations.

"Ehm, I .. sorry, I'm really sorry just if …,"

"A true knight must be able to take responsibility for his behavior! What you have in mind is not a good example! All of this happened because of your ambition, this mess and also your two sons! And giving up is not an option!"

Sari is a little upset with Candika who lightly wants Al to follow the will of the devil.

"Then what now?" ask Candika weakly.

Candika looked at Risa who nodded faintly at her, "Alright, I will obey you guys. Please save Risa and also my son!"

Less likely to save his son, the element of his life is already depleted. Just wait for the time before the demon dies in Pandji's hands!

Sari let out a heavy sigh, she looked back at the future. But he can't do much, Sari can't interfere in fate.

"Then I go first mas, there are other things that I have to take care of before the big war happens" Sari told Al.

"Another thing?" Doni was confused by his wife's words.

"We're going east beb!" answer the mysterious Sari.

"For?" Doni asked again.

"Without our old friend!" sari answered, blinking her eyes next to her.

"Don't hesitate to ask for our help mas Al, we will gladly come as soon as possible!" sari said just before she disappeared into another dimension.

...----------------...

A reddish tinge appeared on the eastern horizon sign that Surya was preparing to do his duties during the day. Sari and Doni have returned to the hotel room to rest.

"Are you ok beb?" Doni was a little worried about seeing his wife's unusual face.

"No, I'm not!"

"Why? Tell me why is your face so serious since we got back?!"

Sari sighed for a moment, then looked at Doni. "I felt him rise up,"

"Airlenose?"

Sari nodded and resumed her words, "He saw me while fighting that demon!"

Doni was still waiting for Sari to return, "The eyes in the dark were watching me, the energy was just like Airlangga. I'm sure he has risen along with the opening of that little portal!"

"Are you sure?" asked Doni while getting out of bed and poured a glass of mineral water for Sari.

"I've never misread his energy beb, it's him!"

Doni poured a glass of water on Sari.

"Sooner or later it's going to happen, no, we have to be ready!"

"Yes, but .. we still haven't prepared anything. I'm afraid we're outnumbered!" Sari hesitated, there was fear looming in her mind.

"You're scared, repeated?" doni asked as if she knew what Sari was thinking.

"Look, fear is necessary. That means even though you are immortal you are still an ordinary human. Bad history will not happen a second time. We will be prepared and this time defeat is not our goal!"

Doni grabbed Sari's hand grasping, and kissed her forehead gently.

"I will always be by your side, supporting you to the end. We'll face it together!"

Sari hugged Doni's body tightly. The restlessness in his heart was relieved by Doni's words that were soothing to the heart. Doni grabbed him and carried Sari in an embrace, before long which sounded only a slow and regular snoring from Sari.

This time I will take care of you Sar, I promise to protect you from Airlangga! You may be called the angel of death to the gentler, but I am your guardian angel!
