The gatotkaca 2050
Iron Soldier

A horrifying sight was seen on the screen before them. One of the iron soldiers like iron man who a moment ago they witnessed was manoeuvring to search for the crack of the attack, was crushed by the explosion. The pilot's body slid to the ground, from his position it was seen that he was helpless.

Fortunately the other iron soldier pilot immediately sprightly. As soon as he saw his partner fall, he quickly glided to catch him, then placed it on the helipad of a multi-storey building in the Thamrin area. After giving a signal that he needed help from another unit, the man behind the armor flew back into space.

There was a sigh of relief heard inside the basement of Professor Tejo's hideout. Dara, the Eagle, Captain Firman, and Professor Tejo themselves were relieved that they did not see the heartbreaking thing that they had thought of just a moment ago when they saw one of the iron soldiers fall.

“Ka-If the secret weapon of the government alone could not fight the creature.” Dara did not dare to continue his words.

Her brother bowed, then dropped himself on a long chair covered in brown leather. The chair that Professor Tejo usually wears to think and find ideas. The captain-ranked man had not expected to encounter such a day in his life.

Still vividly remembered in the memory of Captain Firman when he first decided to enter military school. There was a strong rejection from his father who did not agree that his first child became a soldier.

“*You can go further if you enter management, Man!” Snapped his father when he told him he had received a scholarship from the department of resilience.

“But, Yeah. Word don't want to miss this opportunity.”

“ Anyway, once dad said no. No!” The next second, his father slammed the door of his room. Dara who had just returned from school was silent looking at the two men in her family who were struggling.

A month after the feud between himself and his father, Firman was ready to pack the clothes he would bring to study in his new place. The feeling in his heart raged between being happy, as it would gain new experiences. Sad to have to leave his family. Upset, because his father has not given permission for him to enter military school.

“Where are you going?” Said Dara who watched the Word prepare to leave her room.

“Because, I have to go to military school in Magelang. Brother ask, you take care of father and mother yah.” Putting down his bag, he hugged his sister.

Dara shed her tears, then returned her brother's embrace.

“You learn diligently, don't make dad and mom sad well, Ra,”.

The sturdy man then kissed his mother's hand with reverence. Tears dripped, “Bu, Firman apologizes if it's wrong. Word request permission..”

The almost middle-aged woman nodded while wiping her tears. He rubbed his son's head, giving him his blessing.

“Take care of yourself, Man. Mother's prayers always accompany.” Then he frowned the Word, then hugged it again.

Meanwhile, his father, who still has not given permission to Firman to enter the school of his son's choice, decides not to go out of the room. Though in his little heart he supports the wishes of his eldest son.

“Dad, Firman said to leave. Word would like to apologize if all this time had the same father..” The man choked, then continue the sentence, “Firman please pray his blessing, Yah.” This time he sat down with his knees folded, hoping that his father would come out and forgive him.

Days changed by week. Weeks changed months. The month changed years. During the cold war between his father and the Word was like an iceberg at the north pole that was difficult to melt. Every time he came home on vacation, there was no laughter that was usually thrown from the two of them as before Firman decided to go to army military school.

“The two kangen same babble father and also brother rich first time,” said Dara when they were eating at a fast food restaurant in the Blok M area.

His father's anger was further heightened when he got the news that Firman, his son would take the selection exam to become a member of the Special Forces company.

Not without reason he forbade Firman to enter the elite forces in the army. But this reminds her of the incident that befell her younger brother a few years ago.

Her sister came home lifeless, with wounds on her coconut shell and her chest. According to reports received, he was shot in the Hell's Sunday exam. When having to free themselves from the barrage of shots his coaches. Due to physical exhaustion during the test, bullets from his trainer's rifle pierced his head, as well as his chest.

The only smile that the Word saw coming out of his father's lips was when he came home on a clear afternoon, then with pride, the issuance of red berets as a marker of himself passed the test and became a member of Kopasus.

But that smile was only for a moment. The middle-aged man then went inside his room. The cold war between them is still going on.

The cold war between them finally melts, when the Word who now bears the rank of Captain tells his sister that he is preparing to fight against extraterrestrials who will destroy his hometown. Seen at the end of there his father saluted with the most beautiful smile for Firman*.

“We need superheroes to fight them,” said Captain Firman softly, half muttering.

“There are no superheroes in this world,” refuted Professor Tejo while sitting next to his sister Dara.

“There, Prof. There's proof.” The eagle opened the sound and then turned on Professor Tejo's projector which immediately showed the image of the entire room.

The gondrong-haired man with round glasses twitched his forehead.

“This...” The eagle pointed at the iron soldier they had seen on the screen. “ Said Kak Firman, this weapon was purchased from America, and looks like Iron Man's shirt. If his shirt and fullness apparently exist, it means Iron Man really exists, Prof.”

“Although there are, how do we call them?”

The eagle smiled, he felt that he had won the debate this time. Meanwhile, Kaptem Firman and Dara looked confused with a smile on the face of the Eagle.

Professor Tejo shook his head, pointing out an objection to whatever the Eagle was going to say.

“We don't have to call them..”

“But?” Cut Professor Tejo.

“We picked up one of the most powerful superheroes among them.” In excitement, the Eagle-eyed man explained what he meant.

Professor Tejo's head is getting faster, giving a sign of rejection.

“Prof, it's time we use that tool..” said Eagle trying to convince.
