SURVIVORS
Chaptre 299. Indonesia's?
Over an hour they glided inside the worm hole. The longer, the more force pull yes tight.
"Look at that light!" yelled Alan firmer. The wind slightly disturbed their hearing.
"We're almost there. Be prepared."
Dean and the others tightened their hands. Unlike the previous worm hole, where there is a rejection barrier when approaching the exit. In this place it is just the opposite. The five people were like being sucked firmly towards the light.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaa ...."
Byuruurr!
One by one the bodies of five friends fell into the water.
"Akh .. ouch ...."
"Ugh ... What the fuck?"
"Please! I'm drowning!" alan shouted gurgling. His hand continued to bash the water chaotically.
Sunil looked at her irritatedly.
"Don't lebayy! The water is only chest-high! What's drowning!"
But Alan was still floundering and was lost many times in the water. Dean helped hold her hand.
"Stand with your feet, let's not drown!" said patiently.
"Ah .. ah .. thank you Dean," said Alan with great difficulty. He drank a lot of water when he drowned.
"And you, instead of directly helping me!" Alan accused Sunil.
"It's ... already!" lerai doctor Chandra. "See this place. Isn't this a little familiar?"
The five people started to look around the place. They were in the middle of a large pool.
"What kind of a trench is this?" ask Alan.
"Obviously, not a swimming pool" Sunil said.
"That's what I know too!" Alan's still picking up Sunil.
"If it's not a swimming pool, it's just a fish pond. It's damned!" replied doctor Chandra.
"Uekk .. cuih .. cuihh!"
Alan tried to spit out the dirty water he had swallowed.
"Oh my poor stomach. Hopefully no worms are ingested" he said disgustedly.
All smiles seeing Alan still trying to spit out his empty stomach.
They walked to the edge of the pool. There seems to be quite a lot of pools here. But there were no guards. There were also no fish in the pond.
"Could this place be abandoned?" guess Doctor Chandra.
"That's possible. We'll talk about that later. Now we better find a clean water source. We have to take a shower!" said Robert.
Dean agrees. "Let's go find."
"We'd better get to a slightly higher place and there's trees there." Sunil pointed in one direction.
The others nodded and stepped into that place. It's a long way away too.
"These are so big, why not run again? Isn't it a pity" said Dr. Chandra.
"Maybe less capital, or not very profitable" replied Sunil origin.
"Where do you think this is?" doctor Chandra's fishing line.
He felt this scene was familiar. The view of the dam is very common to be found in Indonesia. But Chandra's doctor doesn't want to guess alone.
"This is like the situation in Indonesia" said Alan quickly.
Dean, Sunil and Robert froze. They look around. Then watch the smiling doctor Chandra. Unlike Alan, he seemed oblivious to his words just now. His steps quickly led to higher ground.
"Are we back?" sunil's expression was difficult to explain.
"Don't forget. The condition of Indonesia is not much different from Malaysia, Thailand and surrounding countries." Dean tried to paint a picture.
"Ah, it's okay. Whatever country we are in now, as long as we are on the same earth, that is enough" Robert argued.
"Yes. We can report our situation to the local government" continued Sunil optimistically.
Dean, Sunil, Robert and Doctor Chandra rush towards Alan. He was standing in front of an old stilt house. A very big house. Some of his asbestos walls were dislodged here and there. The roof supports began to wobble. The pillars of the stage house also look weathered.
"About two. How many years has this place been abandoned?" robert muttered.
"There's a well!" said Dr. Chandra. He was looking for a bucket to draw water.
Alan's approaching. With his ability, he pulled a bit of that well water up. Then thrown into the ground.
"Why was he thrown out?" doctor Chandra's protest.
"This well has not been used for a long time. The top water will usually be dirty" explains Alan.
They also clean the body dirty and muddy. But the condition of the stilt house was bad and dangerous, making the five people decide to rest under the tree only.
All friends are expelled. Dean took out the mountain boulders to make them rest.
The women immediately prepared food. But Marianne felt something was lacking.
"Where's michael?" suddenly tanyanya.
It surprised Indra, Leon, Niken and Widuri. They haven't seen Michael since.
Robert looked at Dean. Dean nodded. Robert pulled out Michael's almost unrecognizable body.
"W-what happened?" Marianne approaches Michael's body. He recognized his clothes.
Finally Sunil tells what happened on their way through the worm hole. Everyone cried remembering Michael's kindness all along. Especially Marianne who is always defended and guarded by Michael when both are kidnapped.
Alan said nothing. But his hands were busy watering Michael's body with immortal water. He hoped, at least be able to bury Michael with a whole body.
"Are we going to bury him here?" ask Niken.
"Later, we'll find a better place" replied Dean. Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Are we going to continue Dean's journey?" ask doctor Chandra.
"The sky will soon turn red. I think it's better to rest first. Our trip is delayed until tomorrow morning. How's it?" Dean asked back.
"Alright then," Chandra agreed.
"OKAY. Now Alan, Sunil, Robert, we have to make a shelter for tonight. So let's get to work!" take Dean.
The four people went towards that stage house that was about to collapse. They took off all the roofs and walls of the building. Dean uses old wood that is still good as a support pole.
And before night fell, that simple shelter was already standing. The floor is the stone slabs of the mountain. The walls and roof of the former materials of the stage house are collected.
"Evening is ready."
Niken's voice called for everyone to gather in front of the cooking stove that was in the open. The team ate very well. They are very tired and hungry.
"Dean, if this world is where we come from, then soon we will be separated" Indra said.
"We have to visit each other yes" Niken added.
Dean nodded his head and smiled. So did Widuri and the rest of the team.
"How about the three of us having a wedding party together?" Niken gave a surprising idea.
"Hahahaha that we can talk about later, after we get home," elak Widuri smooth.
"Leon, if Widuri's not ready, how about we both? You're with Jane, then me and Indra. It would be fun to have a party together. And I'll be back to greet my vlog audience. We could have a live party."
Leon smiled as he glanced at Jane who did not understand what Niken was saying.
They chatted with happy hearts that night. Then rest.
"Dean, you're gonna have to drive me home and explain our marriage" said Widuri, hugging Dean. He was so happy to imagine the face of his parents who were relieved to see him back.
"I miss my mom's hug" he murmured.
Dean hugged Widuri after hearing the mutter. He also missed his family in Canada. After all the business in Indonesia is done, he will bring Widuri home to see his parents.
Sunil can't wait for the morning. He wants to return to India soon. Somehow the fate of his two children now.
They were all thinking about the quarter and the return. I can't wait for the sun to take the place of the night.
