The gatotkaca 2050
Fear Semar

Since the failure of the plan to pit Antareja and Pandavas, Duryudana always threw his anger at anyone nearby. Sengkuni was no exception as the brain of the plan.

Panchala's departure, coupled with a failed plan, was Kaurava's worst achievement. For them Panchala was a strategic kingdom with a great army that could be used against its opponent, the Pandavas. Coupled with the presence of Srikandi who should be able to be ruled out with Karna, then the two powers will be a heavy opponent for Arjuna.

Unfortunately all Duryudana's wishful thinking is dashed in the hands of the person he thinks will be destroyed if the plan succeeds.

“We have to find a way so that no more territory can escape from Kaurawa, Uncle.” Duryudana rested his hands on the handle of the king's seat. His face looks exhausted.

Sengkuni smiled a grin then said, “we need a plan, Ngger!”

Duryudana kicked the table hard. “PLAN... PLANS.. UNCLE ALWAYS SAID PLANS. BUT WHERE IS THE PROOF?” it was filled with emotion.

Seeing Duryudana's anger, Sengkuni chose silence. While some of the guests Duryudana invited felt increasingly awkward about this situation.

“Since this time, anyone who dares to defect from Kaurawa. Will be faced with the supreme commander of Kaurava,” cetus Duryudana, his hand pointed at the Resi Bisma and Karna which was greeted with a nod from both.

Eagles seriously follow the movements given by Gareng, ranging from punches, kicks, to avoidance or stalking. His body that was originally fat when it came to this age, had already changed a lot. The fat in his stomach turned into dry muscle with four box folds. His chest which was once a field, is now more contained. All that is because of the routine training he lived with Gareng and Petruk in Karang Kedempel.

The man who came from the future also felt more comfortable living in the hut owned by Ki Semar, rather than having to live in the royal palace of Astina. Because he felt his training was more well coordinated by his two witty teachers, in contrast to the palace square which requires him to practice alone.

“Today's workouts are over, rest,” said Gareng after replying to the honor given by Eagle.

“Good, Master.” The eagle smiled with a sweat still wetting his face.

One more thing that makes Eagles more comfortable living in Karang Kedempel, every time you finish warm tea exercises and also sweet boiled cassava is available on the porch of the hut. Not to mention the cool breeze with the aroma of leaves and grass that leads to the sea makes him feel very comfortable.

“So, when will you bring Gatotkaca to your time, Ngger?” The voice of Semar who had just come out of his hut shocked the Eagle who was busy devouring boiled cassava.

The eagle shifted its seat more towards the center of the terrace, it wanted to give a seat to the man who was revered by the kings of this age. The fat man widened his smile which, despite not smiling, always had a smile on his face.

“Soon, after my time bracelet is fully charged with power.”

“My advice is that you bring him soon, Ngger. So that not much change happens. If it is too long, fear your time will be destroyed.” Semar took a boiled cassava, then put it little by little into his mouth. “My hunch says that soon there will be a big war.”

“Bharatayuda,” muttered Eagle slowly, barely whispering.

“Yes, Ngger. A holy war between two warring brothers. Pandawa and Kaurawa,” connect Semar. His eyes were staring deep into the ocean.

“A battle that will get a lot of great knights killed.”

 “If Duryudana had not been consumed by the incitement of those around him to seize the throne of Hastinapura from Yudhistira, Bharatayuda would never have happened.” This time there were tears falling on Semar's eyes.

“No, Ngger. My fault. When there was an event in Hastina, I chose to be imprisoned. I assume that the event will take place safely. In fact..” Semar let out a long sigh.

“Everyone has a choice, Ki. Maybe that's the path they need to take. Just like me. I could have chosen to leave the ruined city, save myself. But I prefer to go back to this age to try to save the future.”

“Crut, Ngger. There is nothing wrong with our choice.”

A bluish-colored light appeared near the cliff not far from Ki Semar's hut, the light slowly enlarged and formed a hole. From inside appeared Krishna in his great clothes.

“Salam salute Ki Lurah Semar.” The Dwarawati king saluted him with both fingers pinned to his palm, as Semar welcomed from the front of his hut.

“Greetings, what was my dream last night until my hut was visited by the noble King?” answer Semar with a welcoming speech.

“Ah, it is my honor to be welcomed directly by Ki Lurah Semar.”

“Please enter, your honor. Let me tell my cantrik to cook you good food.”

The king drove Semar with his hand. “Not necessary, my arrival shortly. I have something to talk to Ki Lurah Semar.”

“Ah... No, your Majesty the King has come all the way here, I must serve a dish to his majesty.” 

With heavy feelings, Krishna finally relented. None of the kings dared to refuse an offer from Ki Lurah Semar if it was forced. Let alone the king, the nation of gods even though no one dared to.

“Please enter your honor, what is it that goes all the way to come to my hut?” semar said as he opened the door for Krishna.

After smiling towards the Eagle, the male ruler of the Dwarawati kingdom entered following the host.

“What is your honor, Raja?” Semar sits cross-legged in the central room of his hut which is commonly used to receive guests.

“I'm worried about the situation lately. Followers of Kaurawa began to spread threats to areas that began to stretch with them.” Krishna took a long breath.

“You mean, Ngger?”

“Since Panchala fell into the hands of Arjuna, Kaurava's territory was reduced. Not to mention some areas started following in the footsteps of Panchala to break away from Kaurawa and join Pandawa.”

“Gusti, what error do you guys have so it has to be like this?” Tears of Semar are back. “If it is continuous like this, it is not impossible that Bharatayuda will break in the near future.”

“That's what I'm afraid of, Ki Semar. But if indeed Bharatayuda is the one outlined by the gods to fight tyranny, then there is no way but to deal with it.”

From outside Semar's hut, the Eagle silently eavesdropped on their conversation while thinking about what would have happened if the Bharatayuda war had broken out, and he was still in this age. Reopening the Mahabharata story on his tablet, he slowly read back the Bharatayuda chapter so that he gets a picture of what will happen when the war breaks out.
