The Knights are broken
Chapter 1

The sound of gunshots continuously rained down on them nonstop, but were they afraid of it? Really, not at all. They were a very brave group of soldiers.

So why are they shouting at each other? Because there is one problem they fear more, than the sound of a firearm. Whatisit? Loss of trust in his own friends.

"Adam! Get away from the kid!" captain Leo said, pointing the gun's mouth at Adam, and the child standing behind.

"Captain, he's just a kid. He can't do anything" replied Adam slowly trying to calm Captain Leo's emotions.

However, that answer did not make the captain's emotions subside. He slowly approached Adam with his red face. "It's orders! Goddamn bum! Get out of there!" he threatened with raising his voice.

Adam replied, "You could have shot me! But I still won't let you kill this kid!" Adam slowly took a step and distanced the boy.

"You're gonna die, asshole!"

The situation became even more gripping, when Sergeant Raka came in a hurry carrying a message, "Captain! The enemy is almost here! We have to control the situation-now!"

Hearing that, made the captain even tighter in his hand, "You know what the enemy will do, right? So get away from her!" Captain Leo began to put his index finger on the trigger, "We don't have time - this is the last warning!"

Adam stared intently at the captain's face, showing a face that had no concern for death. The moral promise of a soldier that he will not break, protects the weak with strength and responsibility.

"Captain ....!" Adam exclaimed in front of the captain Leo who was ready to put an end to everything. "You did it ....! " So he smiled at the Captain. "You managed to teach me to protect those in need."

Hearing him, the captain's body became shivering. "Suck!" he exclaimed, until the trigger that had been stuck had finally come off. And all of them slowly became light.

It ends with Adam waking up from his nightmare. "Argh, that dream again. Shit," he murmured, while stroking his forehead.

Then, he looked towards the ceiling of the room that seemed to be trembling slightly, and said, "It's noisy outside. Is anybody?"

...

Usually, the warm rays of the morning will enter the cracks of the windows and doors. But not for this place, it was completely sealed off. In fact, just peered from the outside does not look the slightest bit of lighting in it.

Then, from the front of the door came a loud sound that was very painful eardrum. "Tokay! Geck! Geck!" The voice tells, if the sound will not stop, until getting an answer from the owner of the house.

"Hello! Is the person who lives here still alive?!" exclaimed a young man in glasses in a white lab coat. He was standing in front of a simple house that looked as if there was no life in it, but the Young Man did not give up, he just continued banging on the door nonstop, made the neighbors on the side become curious.

"It looks like the owner of the house is dead" said the Old Man beside the house, holding an air rifle in hand.

"Well, very helpful information" said the p

the young man looked at the interlocutor with a forced tooth smile, then continued banging on the door before him.

Tired of hearing the loud noise constantly, making the occupants of the house wake up. He rose up like an undead, then moved lazily from the bed towards the sound of the door shaking.

Arriving at the front door, he lifted his head slowly, with a slight force of drawing his face between the doors, then he peeked out of the peephole, and said, "Hey, you-go from here!" he shouted from inside, then there was a squeaking sound as if away.

Although he was expelled, the young man did not give up. He puffed out his chest, looking very confident with his young face. Then, he let out a long sigh, saying, "Lieutenant Adam, I hope you will take a moment, this is important," said the young man looking serious.

Shocked by the young man's words, the occupants of the house began to recall a dark memory that could not be forgotten, "Ah, noisily," he muttered, holding his forehead with one hand. He tried to erase the image he had in mind, starting with banging his own head until his long black hair trembled.

However, just a moment there, there was the sound of an open door. Open slowly, accompanied by a subtle ringing sound swipe the door. The warm rays of the morning began to creep into the dark room, slowly looking half its form behind the shadow.

The door continued to open, until it seemed an existence that made the eyes become curious. Curiosity was fulfilled, when it was seen the desperate gaze of two brown-black eyeballs.

His face was pale standing in the middle of the darkness. Seeing this person-as-will-would want to make sure there is life. How frightening? Nnnnope. What a very concerned figure, with the art of burns on the body.

This, Adam Maula, came from behind the door with a clever hand to hold. He pulled the man's collar, then sternly said, "How do you know me?" adam asked the Young Man.

The man scavenged one of the pockets of the suit he was wearing, then showed Adam, "This tag is Captain Leo, his wife gave it to me. I think this is enough to convince you," replied the Young Man slowly.

The young man said, "Wow, it's like there's a dead man smell nearby," he said in a subtle tone, "Maybe, I'll come back later."

But, what a pity. The man turned back too late, because the door was closed. There was no way for him to return.

They simultaneously sat on the soft sofa chair. In a completely calm atmosphere, the two of them stared at each other and tried to recognize each other. After a moment of silence, their eyes did not stop.

"You who?" ask Adam.

The young man replied, "Yes, sorry. I got so carried away that I forgot to introduce myself. Introduce, my name is Damian."

"What's your goal?" adam asked the man in front of him, whose name was Damian.

"Well, my goal here is ...."

The two of them chatted for a long time, but in the middle of the conversation there was a heated debate between them, until it ended with Adam showing his sour facial expression, when Damian said, "Adam, "Adam, you're really going to transmigrate to another world, trust me."

"Huh? What world?! What are you talking about, asshole?!" adam snapped, hitting the table, "Go!" he pointed towards the front door.

However, without giving any pressure, Damian said to Adam, "Well, I'm gone. But, at least take care of your health, bro. Minimal shower," he said in a slightly disappointed tone.

Adam ignored Damian's words, only retaliating by turning his face away without saying anything. Damian smiled a little at Adam, then left from there.

~ Several hours passed ....

It was dusk before then, the night became unsettled. Adam, who was lying on his bed, thought incessantly about Damian's words.

Unceasingly agitated, Adam got out of bed to pick up a small bottle from the glass cabinet. It's very concerning, because Adam is a sedative addict.

'Hadeh, run out again. Lazily go out, ' said Adam complaining in his mind.

For a moment he began to prepare to go out of the house, aiming to buy medicine. Just dressing up in a hoodie sweater and jogger pants from her favorite local brand - doesn't attract attention, but it looks pretty simple with sneaker shoes that look very well groomed. That simple thing was enough to make him feel confident to get out of the house, "It seems like I don't need a bath, right?" adam asked himself in front of the silent mirror.

~ 30 minutes passed, finally Adam returned.

But he just sat quietly on the sofa with a gloomy look. "Damn!" adam said snapping, throwing without the direction of the motor key he was holding, "Is it true they are out of stock?"

He stretched his head, sighed as he stared at the ceiling of his house, continuing to say, "Well, I think I need ecstasy.'"

Disappointed when not fulfilled, that's the addict. In his mind he just stumbled on the word, 'How is it? What should be ...' was caught off guard by the blurryness of sight, because of the greatness of the vexation. Unexpectedly, a speck of light appeared, only it was not the light of hope.

On the table, the light-colored blue pill, was very tempting to people in need. He was a little excited, then said, "Well! Enough sleep tonight. The color looks different."

However, without a second thought, Adam immediately took the water in the kitchen and immediately swallowed the pill. After that he took a ten-minute break to calm down on the sofa.

Before long, the pill reaction had already worked. But Adam saw a strange little movement. Starting from the black dot that appeared from before him. The black dot slowly enlarged, then swallowed the entire room to cover everything.

'Why? I-I couldn't see anything, ' asked Adam to himself, walking slowly trying to reach the surface of the wall. 'Unlike the usual medicine, but-yes that's it.'

Although it feels awkward, but Adam still feels calm. He thought it was just a normal effect of the pill. The surroundings had become completely dark. Even Adam could not see his own hand held close to the face. This hallucination began to be terrifying, as his consciousness remained continuously awake.

The body begins to numb, unable to scream, unable to even breathe. But very strangely, Adam still felt fine, and there was another strange feeling of his body movement that felt moved very quickly.

I don't know when it will end, because it might just be him .... "Wait a minute, w-did I die?"
