The Companion
Ch. 21 Flashback

Citra was sitting watching tivi accompanied by her Father and Mother. His feelings are restless. He looked to the right and left like he was looking for something.

His feelings are very gripping fear even though he is currently between his parents.

" You why Cit...? "

" Is there something missing....? "

" Don't know Bun. "

Astari's mother Citra immediately chanted a prayer while keeping an eye on her daughter.

Seeing the restless image his father immediately hugged his daughter. Before long Citra stood up and headed for the front door.

Silence was fixated with wide-open eyes looking down the road. Standing beside her Father and Mother.

" Bun, what happened....? " Ask Dad Citra.

Mr. Soleh is an ordinary human being. He did not have a sixth sense like his wife. Yet he is a typical hard worker, dear family.

" Mother is also studying the situation."

His vision entered his son's subconscious.

" Where is this.....? "

Astari's mother Citra was standing at the end of a dark hallway. He did not dare to step forward as in front of him stood three women and one man.

The man wore a yellow gold noble suit typical of rulers in the Majapahit era with a handsome face and a stocky body. Behind him stood a woman wearing noble princess clothes in line with the man in front of her. Having a face like a picture.

While the two women who followed them wore the typical clothing of warriors from the land of Bamboo. Beautiful and identical twins.

Not far from the four of them, Astari saw a handsome boy similar to the man who was standing in front of the three women but wearing a robe.

" Where is Citra...? " pastary eyes go around every corner.

After Searching around found her daughter was squatting near a pile of fingers.

I don't know what they're talking about Astari can't hear clearly. But the events that followed made his heart almost dislodged when the noble woman was stabbed from behind right on her back.

" Motheraaaaaaa.... " Image shouted loudly.

The man was angry and attacked the two women who had killed the noble woman.

His attack was successfully avoided by one of them and thrust a sword into the man's neck.

in a dying condition crawled closer to the body of a dead woman. Then swear

" I promise that in the life to come there will be no danger to you, including death. "

When the Oriental-faced woman swung the sword to end her life, the man suddenly broke and his head separated from his body.

Suddenly two people appeared next to the man. One of them is Goddess Rengganis who tried to help the man but was late because his body melted like mush.

The atmosphere is back. Two people in modern clothes. One image and a boy.

Astari recognized the boy's face. Wawan touched his shoulder and said :

" You're okay Wawan. "

Haven't heard the answer from Wawan his body has disappeared including Citra and himself.

Astari found herself lying on the bed next to her son.

" Thank God Mother is conscious. "

" What happened Bun...? "

Astari immediately told her what she had seen to her husband.

Rini and Rina were sitting while chatting commenting on an article in a magazine. Seeing a model of the red-clothed props they suddenly got angry.

The two of them sat on the grass covered with bushes. They were confused when they realized they were in a very foreign place.

When they were confused they heard a conversation.

" Sir, did you manage to lather poison into his food...? " Tanya a woman wearing a typical bamboo curtain country dress.

" The mission given by Mr. Princess I have carried out. Even Grandma had also managed to incite the royal members to carry out a rebellion. "

" The condition of the kingdom is now chaotic. Prince Sethyawan's wife was not found. "

" To allay the suspicion that Grandma had prepared a bag of blood."

Immediately the two girls splashed blood onto their clothes with a hint of disdain.

They waited long enough. I heard footsteps from a distance. A young man was running very fast towards somewhere.

As the young man flashed by, he was immediately summoned by them.

" Prince.... "

" Prince Sethyawan.... "

" What happened....? "

" Why were we attacked in the middle of the road.Are they not your loyal soldiers...? " slander them

" I'm sorry about this incident. In the Kingdom there is a rebellion led by my brother. "

" We'd better talk later. We'll find a safe place first. "

" Let's follow me......!!! " The two girls looked at each other and smiled cunningly.

The three of them instantly rushed away at an extremely high speed as the science lightened the body. "

" Why did my two students turn so cruel....? "

" Love can indeed change the hard thing to be soft and vice versa love can change soft behavior to evil. "

" So in the life to come if we are reunited, I will surely educate them gently. "

Seeing the three shadows darting somewhere, Rini and Rina immediately ran following the direction they were heading.

Set them up in a house located in a minimal hallway with light. In front of Rini and Rina, there was tension.

Women who were with Prince Sethyawan felt suspicious about the presence of the two women who wore clothes typical of the bamboo curtain country. "

They were shocked as the faces of the two were very similar to theirs. Unwittingly they stepped on the dried leaves.

" Crustle.... " They hold their breath.

The sound that was made did not bother them.

" Mba, it's like we're being shown a past event. "

Realizing that their curiosity tickled. Uncommanded they walked closer. Their vigilance is maintained by finding a hiding place among the haystacks.

Their hiding place is actually close to Wawan.

" How can they be with you..? "

Ask Citra Wardhani to her husband.

" My wife, while walking later I tell her how to meet them. Right now the most important thing is that we find a safe hiding place first.

Just now they stepped from the chest of Citra Wardhani came out fresh blood as a result of being stabbed from behind.

Rini was shocked half dead. His body immediately fell backwards. Fortunately, she was immediately supported by Rina.

Busy to help her sister the next scene they did not notice - know Rini screamed in pain but her mouth was immediately silenced by Rina when one of the women who followed them died due to her hollow chest.

Rina was still watching as one of the women slammed a sword into the Prince's neck and saw the Prince with a drenched blood creeping towards his wife. Rina's gaze was a little blurry looking at the vile scene. When he closed his eyes his neck hurt.

" Why does my neck feel so sore...? "

Rina grimaced in pain. While enduring the pain in her chest Rini tried to help her sister. See what's hurt.

They saw two figures turned their backs to their positions staring at the bodies of the two husbands and wives.

As the two walked away from where one of them was familiar.

" Wawan companion is that.....? "

they said in their hearts.

Rini and Rina did not dare to come out from her hiding place.

" It seems like the situation is safe Dhek. Let's leave this place. "

Their eyes met a glance with their grandmother who was pulling a stretcher containing the bodies of the two disciples as well as his grandson. Seeing the blood that kept flowing from the two corpses made their stomachs nauseous, eyes twitching. And they are unconscious.
