When The Night Come
RIOS

The two pairs of eyes stared at each other fixedly without letting go of each other. Ares who remained vigilant, observed every move his opponent made. Nea, who was told to get into the car by Ares, could only pray. So that his lover does not get badly hurt.

Suddenly the white-haired young man disappeared from Ares' sight. Ares immediately panicked and looked at the surroundings. However, as he searches for the whereabouts of the figure that Ares considers the enemy. Nea's voice shouted.

“ARES!! WATCH OUT BEHIND YOU!!” Shouted Nea while banging on the car door. Ares did not turn his head and react. He felt himself being pushed hard by a blow, away from the car.

“Cih?!” Ares said, when he managed to stop his body with the position of the body leaning forward and hands on the ground. He saw that figure just glanced at Nea who was in the car.

Looking at the man's eyes, Nea seemed to have seen him. But he was shocked, when Ares who attacked the man suddenly. Even patted. Ares is back.

“Damn it, don't go near Nea!” Shouted Ares. The white-haired man only looked at Ares with his red bead while tilting his head.

Ares got back up and lunged at the man with all his might. The man, who had been silent earlier, now greeted Ares' attack with a blow aimed at Ares' stomach. But Ares swiftly held back his punch using his arm. They both hit each other.

Punch after punch they landed on his opponent. Nea frantically, tried to open the car door. But it can't, like someone's holding it back. Without stopping they continue to fight each other blows and kicks. Until the sky turns dark, night comes. Appearing the Goddess of a glorious night.

Until one of the punches landed on Ares' left cheek, until he fell down. Quickly the white-haired man locked Ares' body by occupying his body lying helplessly. Ares can only survive and protect himself from every blow the man makes.

Nea who kept trying to open the door, finally managed to open it. And immediately ran over to where Ares and the foreign youth were.

“STOP!!” Nea reigned while shouting, hoping that the foreign youth would stop his attack.

The young stranger stopped his attack on Ares and turned his head to look at Nea. Ares swiftly curled the young man's hand and bent it. Nea was aghast as she watched Ares' quick action. He spoke for a moment.

“Ares stop! Let go of her dear.” Nea said as Ares managed to bend it.

“But darling?” Ares was amazed by Nea's words. Nea just smiles and Ares complies.

When Ares let go of the young man, he couldn't stand his throat and just sat down limp and lowered his head. Nea approached the young man.

“Xita?” Ares flinched, but Nea just smiled as if saying 'nothing'.

Hearing the name called, the foreign youth felt his turbulent bond. Indicates that he is the person he is looking for and waiting for.

“Rios.” A soft voice sounded as his name was called. The foreign youth immediately raised his head and looked at Nea's face.

“1 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________ _ _________________ Said the white-haired young man. Nea peeped at the top of Rios' head.

“Please Rios, don't get out of control again.” Nea's words that made Rios calm down. Ares was upset and angry at what he saw.

“Xita?!” Shouted Ares after seeing all that. Nea instantly blinked her eyes in confusion.

“Eh?” Nea said as she saw Rios holding Nea's hand and rubbing it against her cheek.

“EEEEHHHH??!!!” Nea's shout only made Rios tilt her head.

“1 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________ _ _________________ Rios simply uttered O affectis mou repeatedly happily. Ares who lost his temper, immediately grabbed Nea's hand and pulled Nea in his arms.

“Xita, what did you do?” Ares asked in a somewhat angry tone. Nea could only stare at Ares in confusion.

“I don't know baby, I was like I lost consciousness and when I woke up .. I'm already here.” Nea answered and lowered her head, feeling like she had made a mistake.

“Huufft .. well, I'll take care of him.” Ares said as he looked at the white-haired young man who was staring with puppy eyes. The red bead stared at Ares' blue bead with a glaze. Makes Ares look like a puppy.

“Come in there, and I'll take you to my house.” Ares to Rios.

“You've seen it, right? Come with me, I'll explain everything. He may be your Non. But he doesn't recognize you. But you also have to explain this to me.” Clearly Ares, Rios was staring at Nea. He saw a pink bead belonging to Nea, which is different from what Nonanya used to belong to.

“Alright, But let me do one thing.” Rios stood up and approached Nea who was behind Ares slowly. When he reached Nea, he crouched down and rested on one leg. Then grabbed Nea's right hand and kissed the back of her hand.

“I won't let you go again, My Master.” He said, Ares immediately pulled the collar of the shirt Rios was wearing. Rios releases Nea's hand. Nea was confused.

Eventually they get into the car with Ares driving, Nea in the back seat, while Rios sits in the front in the seat next to Ares. Because according to Ares, if Rios messes around. He could stop it immediately.

“So what did you guys say dear?” Nea asked breaking the silence in the car. Ares stared into Nea's eyes for a moment through the rear vision mirror.

“Tomorrow I'll tell Xita. For now, you need a break at your home.” Ares said, refocusing on the streets. Nea only snorted annoyedly at Ares' reply.

“Good.” The reply was a bit pouting.

The time shows at 9 pm when they arrived, Nea was immediately greeted by Sarah and Nathan. Nea's sisters were already in their own dreamland, intending to wait for her brother to come home.

“Close to Nak Ares.” Take Sarah to Ares, when Ares is about to open the car door.

“Sorry Aunt, I still have a lot of business to do.” He answered politely while smiling. Sarah just nodded and understood Ares' reason.

“Alright, sometime stop by ya.” Imbuh Sarah when Ares starts his car.

“Good Aunt, I say goodbye first.” Ares replied as he drove his car out of Nea's house. Rios could only stare at Nea who looked further and further away in sadness.

Arriving at Ares's residence

Ares who had a flat expression was dragging Rios who did not want to walk alone. There was a sense of annoyance in his heart. But all he could stand was because he wanted to know something. When he reached Vartan's room, Ares opened the door violently.

“Shelf!” The sound of the door opening. Vartan was startled and reflexively covered his body with his hands.

“Heh?! Why?” Ares saw Vartan's behavior. Ares drags Rios into Vartan's room.

“Hehe .... No papa Bang. Eh? What is Bang?” Ask the curious Vartan.

“Clean him and put on a shirt. Fast!” Ares' orders, Vartan immediately did his orders.

An hour later ....

Vartan, who has successfully cleaned and tidied Rios' body, is proud of his work. Ares who was looking, could only feel annoyed.

“Nih, Bro. I'm done.” Vartan said proudly.

“ Hm ..” Ares replied coldly. Vartan gasped, as he felt a blizzard coming. Tastes Abang being badmood “Batin Vartan.”

The cleaned rios look striking. Her long white hair looks shiny. Handsome face with a firm chin. Red beads with sharp eyes. Ares felt even more wrathful, but he still held back his anger.

“Rios?” Ares called the name Nea. Rios immediately looked at Ares who called out to him.

“What?” Rios replied in annoyance.

“You what? And why did you attack us?” Ares asked using the language used by Rios.

“So you think I'm dangerous to him? Just so you know, she's my lover. A woman I love more than myself. What I've been waiting for for 200 years.” Ares explained with emotion. Rios just tilted her head looking at Ares.

“Allan!” Ares called out to Vartan. Vartan was immediately next to Ares.

“Iya Bang?” Vartan asked in confusion.

“Teach him the language of the century, and explain it to him as well. If I'm not a threat to Xita!” Ares' orders to Vartan. Vartan who is actually lazy, just say yes. For not wanting to be humbled by his brother.

That night, Vartan seriously explained everything to Rios. Vartan also taught Rios human life. Rios quickly memorized and remembered it all. Overnight, Rios had already mastered what Vartan had taught her.

Elsewhere ....

Nea, who was fast asleep, had a memory. He was walking down the shelves containing ancient books belonging to his great-grandfather. I found a book that caught his attention.

He picked up the book and Nea saw the cover. Nothing was on the cover, so he opened the book. He read the first page that read, Creature Calling. The curious Nea opened and read every page there was.

Until he found a spell to call her. He observes and understands the mantra. In the room, Nea saw herself preparing a summoning circle with her blood. He was ready to cast the spell.

''O beings that inhabit the world there, I call you to be my phambiliar. Come over!" Nea was focused on what she was doing. At that instant, a strong wind blew. Seen rotating in the caller's circle. Nea, who could not see due to the strong wind, tried to see by protecting her eyes using both hands.

The wind stopped, Nea could see that something had appeared above the summoning circle she had made. A white-colored giant wolf with blue-colored eyeballs, stared at him ferociously.

“What do you need to call me, hey man?” Noxita, who flinched, braced herself when she heard the voice of the creature in her head.

“I want you to be my friend.” Answer with confidence. The wolf only laughed while raising one eyebrow.

“Bertains? With you, a human whose life is short?” Mocking speech.

“Ya!” Noxita cried who did not want to lose. Seen seriousness in his red bead.

“Alright, what will you offer me?” Say the Wolf again.

“Contents. Bonds that will not be separated, even if the world is destroyed.” Noxita said confidently.

“Good. What's your name, hey human boy?” The wolf asked curiously.

“Noxita de Devil's Rosaceae. That's my name.” Noxita answered loudly.

“Ah ... It turns out his descendants. Alright. I'll be your friend. Give me a name.” Said the wolf.

“Hm ... Uh! I know!” Noxita immediately held the wolf's head, which made her have to duck. And put his forehead to the wolf's forehead.

“Your name is Rios. Which means Faithful people.” Noxita said that made a strong wind blow back. Noxita who could not hold her body anymore, because her legs were limp was finally hollow.

Just as she was about to fall, Noxita felt a sturdy hand holding her body. Instantly he saw who it was.

“Hum?” There was a white-haired man with red eyes, smiling at him.

“Who are you?!” Noxita shouted while away from the man.

“Haha ... It's interesting indeed you, hey human child.” The man laughed, Noxita who heard his voice inside her head immediately exclaimed.

“Rios!?” Noxita cried in disbelief. Rios just smiled.

“Hei! I have a name and my name is not 'hey son of man'.” Noxita said with annoyance.

“Alright Miss Noxita.” Rios grabbed Noxita's right hand and kissed the back of her hand.

Nea blinked her eyes when she woke up. He recalled what he had seen in the dream.

“So it was a foreign youth yesterday.” He then got up and prepared for today. Today he has an appointment with Ares. Ares promises to explain what he and Rios said yesterday.

Nea went into the bathroom and cleaned herself up. She then wears a pink short-sleeved shirt with jeans and wears her favorite white hoodie.

After he tidied himself up and reflected. He felt enough, immediately he went out and had breakfast with his family.

“For Dad, Morning Mom. Morning My Sisters.” Sapa Nea was happy. Nea sat down and started eating her breakfast.

Baked bread with ham and eggs. Not to forget also fresh lettuce and slices of tomatoes and cucumbers. With tomato sauce, chili sauce and mayo. Nea's Favorite. When breakfast was over, the doorbell rang.

Sarah immediately opened the door and welcomed the person who came. There was a bright blue bead staring at Nea, as Nea approached her.

“Ares is here.” Nea said with a smile. Ares just gave a faint smile.

“Nak Ares wants breakfast first?” Sarah offered Ares. Ares just shook his head slowly.

“No Aunty, I had breakfast before here.” Push Ares down subtly.

“Hum... All right, Nak Ares came to pick up Nea?” Ask Sarah again.

“Iya, Aunt. I want to take Nea for a walk.” Ares answered gently.

“Good. Be careful on the road yes.” Said Sarah. Nea kissed his mother's cheek and said goodbye.

“We go first, Bu.” Nea and Ares get out of the house and get in Ares' car.
