SURVIVORS
203 Chapter. Bi Cemetery
Since morning, the log cabin in the middle of the forest has been busy with various activities.
Bi's funeral began when the sun rose. That's about 8 or 9. They will be present at the city chief's residence. So the morning started early. Prepare breakfast, as well as packing cakes made yesterday. Some were taken to Yoshi's place, some to Laras of course.
After breakfast, everything is ready and ready to go.
"Are you sure the cottage is left empty?" michael asked doubtfully.
"I can stay if I can" he added.
"Let Cloudy stand guard" Dean said.
"I'm just worried about leaving Cloudy alone" Micael said.
"Why?" ask Indra astonished.
"Fear of poachers breaking through here and hunting down Cloudy for various reasons" Michael explained.
"Michael's right Dean. This place can not be left empty to jump," said Sunil.
"Then let me keep Michael on guard here." Indra agrees with Michael.
"Again, it's hard for you to take us flying back and forth" he added.
"Yes already then. Indra and Michael stand guard here. Others leave." Dean surrendered.
"Let's go, please" Dean said.
3 Shadows shot towards the edge of the city. Dean brought Widuri. Alan brought Nastiti and Niken. While Sunil with Marianne.
From the edge of the city they walked towards the residence of the city chief. Many guests have come to pay their last respects.
Yoshi's mother is considered a hero who died to protect the city. They respect.
Dean looked at the coffin in the courtyard made especially for the event. Together with his friends they greet the city chairman who looks more frail. The city leader sat in his big chair. At his side stood Yoshi and Yabie. The smell of sadness felt.
Dean walked up to the coffin. He was not surprised to see Bi's body intact. At that time he saw Alan carrying 1 large jug of immortal water with Yoshi and Yabie.
"Rest in peace, Bi. Your two sons have gathered together. I also let you off willingly. You are a great warrior of our nation. I'm proud of you" muttered Dean in front of the crate. His eyes glowed golden.
Dean pulled Laras to stand beside him.
"This is my wife Bi. Our blessing from where you were there, yes" Dean said.
Alternately Alan, Sunil and the others gave greetings and tributes. Until it was time to lower the crate into the ground. The box was then sealed.
Dean, Alan, Sunil and Yabie lift the coffin to its final resting place. The others followed from behind.
The back garden is beautiful and shady. There's a hole near the back wall. Dean, Alan, Sinil and Yabie lowered the crate slowly. Unfeelably, Dean's tears fell. Dean's golden eyes glowed faintly. Half his heart had been buried here.
"A, take care of yourself," Alan scolded through a voice transmission. Dean quickly regained consciousness.
The city chief gets a chance to hoard the hole for the first time. Then followed by Yoshi who never stopped streaming tears. Then Yabie, Dean, Alan and Sunil.
They waited for the officers to pile the hole to the brim. Everyone prayed in their own way. Khidmat atmosphere.
By noon, the burial was over. The sweets and drinks had been arranged by the servants in the front court. The city chief greeted the citizens for a while, before returning home to rest.
Dean's entourage was also not long there and soon paid a visit to Laras.
They walked down the path of climbing. The healer's residence is between a farmer's village and a fishing village. That's not close. But they can't fly in the middle of the city in broad daylight like this. That could spark a stir.
In the afternoon, their new day came to fatigue. Especially Marianne. Face paled. The doctor finally asked him to be treated for a moment in the room Laras. Marianne nodded helplessly.
"Hi Laras, do you remember me?" There was a loud sound as the door opened.
The covered barrel accompanied by Liam, immediately turned towards the door.
"Niken ...," he cried. Baras tried to smile.
"Ah, you can smile. You'll be fine, for sure" said Niken happily.
"Hush don't be noisy" said Nastiti.
Nastiti walks with Marianne. Behind him was a doctor following. Marianne was asked to lie down to be examined.
"Marianne.
"It's okay. Marianne is just exhausted. We walked a long way from the city to here" explained Nastiti.
"So what about you? Still really hurt?" ask Nastiti.
"Yes sick. Where there is an operation without anesthesia that does not hurt," denied Niken.
"Here, don't be so noisy. Let them rest. If you want to look, one by one dong." Tegur Widuri's.
"You yourself also come in even if it's crowded. Fuck up!" Niken smiled broadly.
"I just want to put the cake here. Barrel, don't forget to eat yes," said Widuri gently.
"Thank you," replied Baras.
The company was in the residence of the physician until the sky darkened. Then leave home because it's dark to disguise them while flying through the city. Marianne was left for another day's treatment.

Activity returned to normal. The men finished the construction of the house. And the woman takes care of the garden.

It's the day Yoshie and Yabie come. They're taking Dean back to the dead city. Dean remembered the meadow behind the walls of Yoshi's residence. It looked like part of the small world of farming he used to care for.
"Yoshi, how could that wheat field and meadow be there?" ask Dean.
"Is that not supposed to be there?" askalanya.
"It was like a part of a small world that I was guarding before it disappeared partially due to a violent impact," Dean explained.
"really?" Yoshie felt it was magical.
Dean shakes. He doesn't want to believe it either. How could his small world shards be thrown so far away from where the six of them had fallen? The sea is over there. It is far from the coast of the sea.
'The terrible steps of the collision back then, ' Dean thought.
"Yabie, how can a maple forest be inhabited by wild animals? There used to be only cows, sheep and horses kept," asked Dean, not understanding.
Those beasts loved to enter the dead city. They're ruffling the whole town. Eating my vegetable garden, even the chickens and rabbits in the cage. So, what I can catch I put it back there. The evil one is turned off," Yabie replied guiltlessly.
"Now we know why game animals disappear from the forest" Yoshi said.
"They went into the city dead." Dean nodded in understanding.
"Why don't you just take those animals out?" ask Yoshi
"I've tried. But they're back." Yabie shrugged her shoulders.
Dean frowned.
'Are the animals afraid of something in this forest?' thought.
'But what?' Dean can't understand it yet.
They had reached the boundary of the dead city, then floated down. All three entered through a gap that no one could see.
"Uncle, how do you think it's good to manage those people?" ask Yoshi.
"I think we should clear this city of rubble first. Then rebuild a more decent home. Setting the city more orderly and green" Dean said.
"Is that troublesome?" yoshi.
"Indeed more trouble. But the house that is now is also rotten. It's already dangerous to live in" replied Dean.
"One more important thing. By removing them from it, the small world behind the wall could be safer. They're safe from wild animals too."
"alright. We do it according to uncle's advice. We're ready to help" Yoshi said. Dean nodded.
They were heading for the first place they wanted to fix. The right side of the city gate. To the left of Yabie's old house.
The three of them lifted all the debris and dust from the area. All were taken outside the walls and gathered there. Soon the place was clean of dust and debris.
Then the three began to clean the right side area of Yabie's old house. The place finally became clean and clean. Kenny and Mattew watched from the window. How debris and dust floated in the air towards the outside of the wall. They are happy because the city will be laid out more neatly and livable.
By late afternoon, all the debris had been removed from the city. The small town looks bigger now. And they found old wells piled up with so much garbage.
Dean went to Mattew and Kenny.
"We'll continue cleaning tomorrow. Kids don't play outside first. There are some old wells out there that's a danger to them" Dean explained.
"Yes. We understand. Thank you for cleaning up this town. If you need help tomorrow, just say it," said Mattew.
Dean nodded.
"We have to go back. Are your eating needs enough?" tanyanya's worried.
"Enough. We've got enough yams, fish and vegetables" Kenny replied.
"alright. Get some rest.don't forget the lock of the gate and the door of the house," Dean said.
"Why? Is this town dangerous?" ask Mattew worried.
"The city is safe. But just as you can enter here from the haunted forest, it's possible that someone else could do the same thing, right?" said Dean.
"Other people may not be as good as us. So be careful" Dean said.
Mattew and Kenny nodded in understanding. As soon as Dean, Yoshi and Yabie left, the gate of the house was immediately locked. Doors and windows are closed. And the lanterns are installed as lighting.
"Uncle, hearing what you said earlier, I think we should shift the city wall to the boundary of the light dome" Yoshi said.
"I think so too. They're just little kids. Pity if it's not protected." Dean agrees.
