Don't Consider Us Weak

Sixty-Five:Aska Fainted

   Time and again the young man avoided the attack of the huge squirrel that was enveloped by the black shadow. The animal was very angry and wanted to finish off the young man by trying to claw and make a big sound so that the young man did not focus on attacking.

   He jumped onto the tree branch with a breath of frenzy, sighing heavily at the big squirrel looking at him sharply as if seeing the prey already in front of him. The big squirrel raised his hand with a long hoof pointed at Aska.

  Aska's two gray eyes widened and again avoided jumping onto another tree. The tree he was holding broke.

He's so strong, how do I attack him? While these eyes continue to see a black shadow inside the now-enlarged squirrel, the inner Aska.

   He could not keep running from this big squirrel attack because it was a waste of time and could not plan out of this wilderness. Aska saw the squirrel staring at him and attacking the same way. The young man jumped as far as possible and directed a review at the animal. However, the squirrel's other hand hit Aska like hitting a ball making Aska's body bounce and hit a tree.

  The pain was created, his body immediately collapsed not strong enough to rise because the squirrel hit him too hard. A girl ran in search of the figure of the young man she was now looking for even though she had already yelled at him to leave. But he had to go back because he knew Aska needed help.

   The girl saw the big squirrel constantly roaring and walking towards the place where there was a fallen young man who could not get up on his feet. He saw the young man's goal, his mouth gaping and eyes wide open, "Aska!"yell Lidya as loud as possible.

  And attracting the attention of the squirrel saw that there was a new prey that would be an outlet for his anger. The wavy long-haired girl was unaware of the gaze from the big squirrel, her gaze was still focused with Aska who was already not strong to rise up to attack the creature that had suddenly become big. Both of his legs ran towards Aska while yelling at the young man's name to get up immediately followed by the sound of a thundering squirrel.

  The brown squirrel turned around and started launching punches from his long tail to oppress the girl, Lidya.

   Lidya who did not have time to dodge can only be silent watching the tail of a large squirrel that will push it into a filter.

"Lidya, lookout!"shouted a girl whose movement was like lightning towards Lidya where she stood. He clasped Lidya's hand and ran away when the tail was already a few pauses from his head.

Dum!

The sound so loud made a strong wind. Lidya and Fitri fell, both of them turned back to see they managed to survive the danger of making a sigh of relief. Fitri turned to look at Lidya who was a little shocked by the incident just now he looked back at Fitri, saying, "thank you."he said slowly.

Fitri nodded,"sama-sama. Fortunately, I arrived on time if not. Surely you'll get hurt." he looked at the big squirrel and tried to strike back. Fitri told Lidya to leave immediately.

"Yup, I'll wake Aska."

"While I take care of this squirrel" replied Fitri quickly stared intently at the squirrel and mocked him irritatingly. Then Fitri laughed crisply and started running around the squirrel monster trying to harm his friend. The squirrel looked confused to see his prey running fast and could not lock it.

  The sound of rapid footsteps rang out faintly in Aska's ears. The young man tried to open his eyes and get up to fight the squirrel. However, with all his remaining strength-not strong to rise. Lidya arrived and sat down beside Aska, shaking the young man's body.

"Aska, wake. Bagkitlah, it's me Lidya. Comeon, getup. Don't be like this please, Aska."lidya said no power to hold back the cry he continued to shake Aska's body.

     A different but vague atmosphere, both feet of Aska stepped into the dark cave. His feet continued to step on their own as if he was being led by someone invisible.

"I where?"his tananya continued to step into the pitch-black cave there was no light at all. Then her steps stopped, Aska turned to the left-right hoping she could find a speck of light from this cave. Looking up at the sky the cave tried to search for the light entrance but found nothing at all.

"Aska?"the voice of a foreign girl in his hearing was clearly heard. Aska was looking for that guy in the dark.

"Who are you?"tanyakanya.

"I am Greysia, the owner of the gray eyes that now flow into your body, Aska" she said softly.

The sound of a small ruckus from Greysia was like mocking. Suddenly this dark cave became light because there was a lighting fire and right in front of the young man stood a beautiful gray long-haired girl wearing a dress on her knees, glass shoes, and a, white socks. Both eyes are gray.

"Why can you take the one car you drove into the woods? The answer is you can move something to another safe place. All of a sudden you're in the woods with your friends because your powers you can't control yet so well that your teleporting powers show up and bring all your friends including you, Aska,"clearly stop staring at the interlocutor seriously,"to a safe place."

"As I said earlier. Can move an object to a safe place where people can't find it." Greysia smiled.

"How can I use these eyes of ashes against the enemy and return all my friends home?"ask Ask Aska expectantly to Greysia.

"Easy. Wake up your ashes again like when you see so many black shadows in the city and look at that big squirrel. You can cast a black shadow on the monster's body with your gray eyes." he said with a smile and the lighting of the fire extinguished.

Aska wanted to ask Greysia a lot of things but it seemed like the girl had disappeared. He let out a rough sigh and rubbed his rough face, confused as to what else to do to attack the squirrel monster.

"Aska, please wake up. I beg you." said Lidya kept trying to wake Aska but his efforts failed. He saw Fitri trying to distract the big squirrel and then came Pandu and others. Lidya stood up and shouted to Arkan.

  The bespectacled young man turned his head and found Lidya who was yelling at his name telling him to approach. Anggi stared at the monster full of grin he never fought a monster like this. Fitri stopped running and held both knees, his breathing was dull and a lot of sweat was pouring on the girl's temple.

  He lowered his head and the monster wanted to hurt Fitri. Anggi quickly launched his sharp chakra into the monster's hand creating incisions and shouts from the squirrel. Anggi caught his chakra again.

"Hmm feel my attack!"said smile.

"It looks like we should attack him at the same time" Beni said.

  The monster was very angry because he got an incision wound from the Anggi chakra. The squirrel continued to roar and launch his barrage of attacks. Pandu tries to paralyze the monster with his power of paralysis.

Pandu continued to focus on the monster in front of him who was busy attacking his friends. But none of his powers are powerful on this great creature.

"Damn, why can't I use my powers?"objurgation.

   Arkan sat beside Lidya staring at the unconscious Aska. "He's why, Lid?"

"Perhaps, he was attacked by that squirrel monster. Did not have time to avoid so he fell." explained Lidya tone worried, staring back Aska.

"The power of the monster must be strong. But I'm just a normal human being who doesn't have any healing powers or anything. I'm just a genius kid who likes to create new things" Arkan said staring at Aska who was still unconscious as well.

  The two of them were silent once in a while seeing his other companions trying to cripple the vile monster.

Me too, just an ordinary human being has no power at all and now my imagination becomes real. Honestly, I got the qualks and the strange happenings kept repeating over and over - inner Lidya hoped that all could pass quickly.
