DEMON PUPPET

DEMON PUPPET
ME, ARMAYI & COKRODIJOYO



My tears broke, I bowed until I finally knelt before my Father and Mother, they tried to wake me up and embrace me, their love I felt like my own biological parents.


I never felt they discriminate between me and Eti, they sincerely and sincerely lived me to this size, I was really ashamed because I often troubled them.


You occasionally divert my day by throwing tones - tones of ridicule that you often do to me


"euh, you little prankster, whiny". Seloroh Bapak


I just smiled a little at my father's joke while wiping my cry


"Udah, already, you come here tea Mr. Seneng, I want to see you digalang, let's sok ngedalang". Pinta Bapak


The father got up from his seat and took the Puppet Cepot from my room


"sook, here's maenin". Said the Father while thrusting the Cepot to me.


I am still not able to toughen up on this reality but you occasionally shake - shake the chirp in front of me to comfort me, ah.hhhh, there is no use also I continue to grieve.


I picked up the chops and then I threw a joke - his trademark laugh, Dad was up - bahak listened to him, Mom smiled occasionally, and Mom moved from her seat to cook our lunch.


I remembered, Mr. Dadang until now still can not contact, I took my phone and still no reply from him, I tried to call him again but the number is not active.


Suddenly I was worried, I was afraid that something had happened to Mr. Dadang, who else I had to contact, none of whom I kept contact with his house.


I went out to sit back in my father's bamboo bale, and then I thought about a little story about my family's origins, thinking that the mastermind was Abah Armayi.


The story is exactly the same as that expressed by Tara and Pak Dadang, this pendant strengthens me that maybe I am the grandson of Abah Armayi, if so, it is appropriate that the old man has a grudge against me.


But I still think, what does that have to do with Tara?. Mr. Dadang who said he got a clue but until now I can not contact, what instructions he got?.


"de, hayu eat, it's ready". Call Mom from the kitchen


I rushed to the kitchen and glad I when I found out Mom cooking vegetable lodeh and salted fish sepat, I then hurriedly scooped rice and vegetable lodeh, this is really delicious.


In between we ate, then I asked the village of my biological parents, but Mother did not know where and Father only replied that my grandfather came from a village in the neighboring District.


Then I asked for permission to go there, I would like to know the origin of my biological family there.


"already, abisin used to eat it". Said Mother


I added my portion of food, Mom looked smiling to see me eating so delicious.


After eating, I rushed to take a bath and prepared to leave for my biological family Village


"mak, sir, Dede left first yeah". My pamphlet


I set off on my motorcycle, because you happen to not sell today.


Arriving in this neighboring District, I asked directions to my destination village, approximately 2 hours drive I traveled and arrived at the Village I was headed.


I asked the people around me about Abah Armayi, because I believed He was my grandfather, but no one wanted to explain about Him.


The people here are a little strange, the eyes are flat on my cynic, but I still try to be polite. Again I asked this to the other residents, but all the same, all silent.


What is this?, I did not find any answers about Abah Armayi until I did not feel I had reached the village next to him, there I also asked about Abah Armayi.


And thankfully, there was someone willing to explain.


"If Abah Armayi in the village there will be no one to answer kang, they are still afraid of the same terror of past events". Answer that someone


He explained that after Abah Armayi died, all derivatives of Abah Armayi had been finished off by Anta Kusuma's mastermind, Anta Kusuma was the mastermind rivaled by Abah Armayi until his career faded.


According to the person I'm talking to, Anta Kusuma doesn't want a next generation of Abah Armayi, and he uses demonic puppetry to increase his popularity.


The Demon Puppet often takes its toll to be used as a fall for its pesugih, but was muted by Abah Armayi in the past.


"if not wrong mah now dirusin with his son, if not wrong mah name of his son was Teja Kusuma tea". Put someone else on me.


Hah, it turns out that Teja Kusuma?.


Then someone asked me, why did I find out about Abah Armayi?.


"i'm his grandson". Answer me


suddenly everyone there told me to leave, they said they did not want any victims of Anta Kusuma savagery in their village


"don't - don't the old man be Anta Kusuma?". I said in my heart.


I quickly left the village and returned to my grandfather's village, I asked where my grandfather's grave was to someone.


"there, it's already kang, do not look for problems here, if you go to the tomb of Bah Armayi just as I'm looking for trouble, as starch will chase akang". Shoot a man to me.


Seda Pati?. And I'm more and more convinced that I'm really Abah Armayi's grandson


"I am Abah Armayi's grandson". Answer me


everyone in the room came into his house and closed the door.


I rushed to my grandfather's grave, I searched for where he was, until I found his grave covered with grass and not taken care of.


Then I cleaned and I plucked the grass, and suddenly the wind blew violently shaking the twigs and leaves behind me.


I felt something on top of the banyan tree, but I didn't know what it was, and then I looked up at the tree and.


"Bad..".


I was shocked to death to see a human figure covered in blood on his face and chest, suddenly bursting into the smell of carrion and the fishy smell of blood piercing my nose.


There was a faint sound of gamelan ringing Madenda in my ear, and I saw the figure of the old man emerging from behind the banyan tree, he was carrying a puppet of starch in his left hand.


He laughed wickedly, while patting someone covered in blood


"i thought you were Armayi's last granddaughter, you'd be just like her". He shouted at me


Sirulak si eling - eling, wayang pati dadi eling


Wayang lalakon, wayang sing tan jiwaning


Starch sukma raga, raga sing tan sampurnaning


Kerserseaning lalakon, lalakon ing patining jalma


Hiyah...


He cast such a spell, it was a spell to put a demon soul into an inanimate object, suddenly the blood-filled human figure approached me slowly, getting closer, getting closer and closer.


Hahh, that's Tara Arjuna


"what are you about my friend Tara, you're a demon?". I yell at him


"haha... This friend of yours made a pact with me, but he denied it, his soul will never be perfect, he will be my slave forever". Answer


Hah, it turns out that Tara Arjuna is a follower of the wayang seda starch, I do not believe, really do not believe, this is really beyond my reasoning.


"he's been warned not to stop the cult prematurely but he didn't comply, and he must die". Added.


"then what do you want huh?". Shouted


ARMAYI'S DESCENDANT MUST PERISH!!. He ran towards me, with a starch in his left hand and a blind puppet in his right hand, so I ran away from him


He was getting faster, I was getting out of breath but I kept running as hard as I could, and I saw a starch fly and almost got close to me, I was getting less and less strong to keep running.


"you must die Dede Jatnika"


He was still chasing me and suddenly there appeared someone I did not know from in front of me, he walked quickly towards me he had long hair and carried a kris in his hand


No, who else is this, I'm dead.


"here you young man, stay there". He spoke to me and told me to hide behind a large stone.


Who the hell is this?


"here you look like Anta Kusuma". Prattling


Hah, it turns out that the old man is Anta Kusuma, the father of the mysterious mastermind named Teja Kusuma.


He immediately grabbed the puppet with his keris until he fell to the ground, the old man approached, and I just peeked out from behind the stone


"want you Cokrodijoyo, it's none of your business, huh?". Put Anta Kusuma to him


Who is this Cokrodijoyo?, I haven't even recognized him in my entire life


Wayang seda starch was taken and arrived - Anta Kusuma revived the starch, he sat cross-legged and read spells calling demons - demons.


But Grandpa Cokrodijoyo is replying with aji - aji like this


**Talking about sarkara mrih,


Pininta maya’ng gang thug, p,


Kang minangka pituture,


Duk's still frowning, man,


Nanging Sang Hyang Wisesa's,


Kang kocap rumuhun,


Samadyaning universe, meneng,


Datan arsa masik jroning tyas,


Ening aneges karsa's.


Amurweng anggana ‘thnya drops,


Titising driya tan ana kang,


Personal dating asuwe,


Miyarsakken swara,


Tan katingal uninya kadi,


Genth, kagyat sakala, genth,


Sarya non antelu,


Hang neng awang,


Gya cinandhak sinanggeng asta pinusthi,


Dadya tigang.


Saprakara dadya earth sky,


Saprakarane teja lan cahya,

The kalih of the samya prostrate,


Ing padane the maha muni,

Sira iku ananingsun ingsun,


Estu kamandanira, estu,


Ingsun pracaya saklir - kalir,


Saisine jagad pramudita, jagad jambad,


Sira wenang


I heard it was like the Bathara Guru Mantra, Anta Wijaya suddenly vomited blood and rushed away to leave us, and suddenly Tara's body disappeared


He screamed


"i swear I'll kill you, Cokrodijoyo"


I slowly came out from behind the rock and approached this old man named Cokrodijoyo


"Whose father?". Much


Suddenly he hugged me and rubbed my head


"Son, I'm your grandfather, I'm your father's father's father". Prattling


Hah, it turns out that he is the Grandfather of my father, meaning that Abah Armayi is the grandfather of my biological mother, how could he get here and find out I was in danger?.


"i've been looking for you for 24 years, almost every week I go to this village, hoping I can meet you here, because I'm sure you're alive and will one day be here". Say


"my gut was suddenly brought me here, and sure enough, my best friend here told me that there was a young man finding out about Armayi, and I'm sure it was you, my grandson, and soon I'll be here to this tomb". Add


"Then why did Grandpa let Mom and Dad die, huh?". Snatch me


He did not want to explain further, then he took me to a tomb located at the end, there are 2 tombs with nameless headstones.


He told me that it was the tomb of my father and my real mother, I couldn't even cry, I cried in the belly of my father and mother while holding her tombstone, I just wished I could see their faces.


I cleaned his tomb, and I wiped it - rubbed back the tombstones of father and mother, interrupted - between my tears, I cried, I said in my heart and asked for the blessing of my father and mother to end all these events and finish Anta Kusuma's life.


The wind came back - suddenly blowing hard


Suddenly my grandfather woke me up and immediately took me away from this place, I woke up and say goodbye to the navel of father and mother


But I remember my father's motorbike left near Abah's grave earlier, I quickly returned to Abah's tomb to pick up my motorbike, and I said goodbye to Abah's tomb.


Kubonceng Grandpa Cokrodijoyo to my house, we did not talk much, we kept quiet and I was a little upset because I was still thinking about why Grandpa let my parents die at the hands of Anta Kusuma


Upon arrival at my house, Grandpa Cokro I introduced to Father and Mother, Grandpa Cokro arrived - suddenly hugged Father


"Thank you for taking care of my grandson and taking care of him". Grandpa said to Father


Then Grandpa told me about what happened 24 years ago,


"i live very far away from here, I come from a different Province, 24 years ago your father and mother went to your mother's village to join Armayi's burial when she died, I couldn't come because I was taking care of your late grandmother who was very sick, your mother was still pregnant with you at that time, a week later your father wrote me saying that you were born and named Raden Pramudyo Yuswantoro Cokrodijoyo, but since then he has never returned and has never given word, a month later I went to the village and heard that your father and mother had been killed by Anta Kusuma, he killed your Father and Mother because they did not want to hand over the wayang seda starch that had been put to sleep and put into the box by Armayi, I was devastated and vengeful to Anta Kusuma, I looked for him and when I met him, we had a fight, but I lost and I'm grateful I'm still safe because I'm hiding in the house of someone who is now my best friend, then after the situation calms down, I took my best friend to the grave of your father and mother, but I only found 2 tombs, the tomb of your Father and Mother, that's where I'm sure you survived"


It turned out that I had been bad to Grandpa, Father and Mother could only be silent to hear Grandfather's explanation, occasionally Mother rubbed - rub my head and hands Mother did not let go holding my hand.


He later apologized to Grandpa for giving me the name Dede Jatnika, because when Mom and Dad left me to Dad, you forgot to ask my name.


"Duh de, your real name is good tea well, Raden Prakoso.... Ehhh what did you forget?". Said the Father with his humorous tone


"Raden Pramudyo Yuswantoro Cokrodijoyo Bapak". Answer me


"Well, eta.da is hard". He added, laughing lightly, we laughed too.


Grandpa asked permission to take me to my grandfather's village, he said that something must be given to me.


"Eh Father, do not ask permission oruh, is he the grandson of the Father". Said Father to Grandpa


"Yo wis, if so kulo pamit ngggeh". Pamit grandpa


I also packed all my clothes and say goodbye to Mom and Dad, Mom Hugged me and kissed me while talking


"This will be the place you go home to anytime, your mother is still your mother"


I hugged Mom again and kissed Mom, Dad occasionally rubbed my head.


My grandfather and I left the house.


Suddenly heard


"Breakk"


I went back and Father rushed to my room, I saw my second ravana puppet which I kept in my house room falling to the floor and hitting my Tarawangsa musical instrument.


My feelings arrived - it was not good.


"Ah most kesengasol cat mah, tuh window also open, let the father who settled". Said the Father, inviting us to leave.


Seriate...
