MASSHIAHSAGA - THE POWER OF TWO KINGS

THE SURPRISING NEWS

A woman was wearing a long coat that covered her body. His head covered with thick black hair was decorated with tiara patterned two unique horns making his appearance more like fairies than real humans.

His skin was indeed pure white, judging from the skin of his face that was flushed by the sunlight. But the look on his face looked so serious looking in a direction.

Seen in the middle of the forest wilderness, it appears a creature that is not clear shape. Slowly the creature looked up and heard his roar.

RAAAAARRRRRGH...

"Hmmm.. you finally showed up too." muttered the horn-styled woman then nodded. "I've been waiting for you for a long time..."

Suddenly the long-mouthed woman leapt high into the air and immersed herself in that stretch of lush green forest tapestry. While the creature that is not clear shape then back down and disguise his body among the tall trees.

...***...

In a vast meadow, a young man rode a young Karkadan. They walked down the street relaxed. The young man was wearing a hooded coat with an oblong shield hanging from his back, while a kopesh was grazed in the animal's pan.

He enjoyed the gentle breeze that blew slowly, cooling his body from the scorching heat of the sun. Fortunately, he was wearing compact clothes but closed so that his body did not become burnt in the hot sun that afternoon.

"Well Bukefals, we'll be in Las Mecca soon. You will eat well later." said the man witfully as he patted the back of the box. Bukefals, the name of the animal simply replied with a heavy snort.

"Ah, the trip to Zafawi is tiring" said the man monologued. "It's a good thing I'm just escorting the trade caravan" he continued, grunting quietly. "If told to stay overnight, wuih, I won't want to. You agree, don't you, Bukefals?"

Again the young man nodded as if he understood the man's words. The animal then heard its long whimper which ended in a slow grunt.

The man laughed cheerfully. "Ah, you know best what is in my heart. It's like we're lovebirds... Aren't we?"

Karkadan shook his head and grumbled again making the man laugh.

"Ah, you're a prankster" he sneered back at the back of the animal's neck. "Come a little faster. I can't wait to see Selena."

The man looked up at the mountains and for a moment he was stunned. Thick smoke rises high visible from behind the hill.

"Bukefals! That smoke!" the man pointed his index finger towards the mountains. "My feeling is uncomfortable! Hurry up, man!"

Once the thud, the young karkadan drove making the man's body shaken in his saddle. Some jokes later, he met a group of troops, riding two vehicles a kind of anti-gravity engine.

The man quickly threw up his car and mount to take the side of the road when he met the army. For a moment the man followed the departure of the army.

"The army of the Kingdom of Yahuda?! How could they be here?!" the man muttered with increasingly displeased feelings. "They came from that direction. There is no other settlement behind the Shofa mountain other than Las Mecca!"

The man with a tense feeling returned to his mount. Karkadan drove down the road and easily climbed the hills. At the top of the hill, camouflaged by rows of trees, the man observes Las Mecca from hiding.

"Hm. there are soldiers armed with shields and laser rifles.I can conquer them." said the man strengthened his heart and pounded his animal mount down the hill.

"Stop!!!" exclaimed one of the soldiers when he saw a man driving a karkandan young entered the entrance gate of Las Mecca.

The man stopped his vehicle. He stared intently at the soldier armed with the laser gun.

"Down from your vehicle!" the soldier orders him to point a laser gun at the man.

"Say who you are and from where!!" continued again.

"I'm Havard, .. I'm a resident here." replied the man. "Right now answer my question. Why are the troops from Ur-Baol in Las Mecca?!"

"It's none of your business!" between the soldiers while tightening the laser gun. "Give me your gun!" said the soldier nodded towards the kopesh who was stung in the animal's garden.

"If I don't want to?" challenge Havard provoked the anger of the army.

"You're looking to die!!!" the soldier was about to pull the rifle.

Fiercely, Havard suddenly pulled out two long nails from behind his coat and thrust them at the soldier.

The two nail sticks stuck right in the army's throat made him collapse to release his life before he could fire a laser.

The soldier's shout provoked the rest of the squad to appear and immediately they aimed their rifles at Havard.

"Invader!!! Kill him!!!" call one of those soldiers.

Once again Havard threw a few long nails into the hands of the soldiers, causing them to scream in pain and release their rifles.

"From Bukefals!!!" havard exclaimed the body of the karkadan while drawing the kopesh from the sheath attached to the animal's palace.

Bukefals roared loudly and ran towards the group of soldiers. They run around the ridge avoiding the rampage of the animal while hastily wielding a sword to attack the berserker.

While Havard took advantage of the opportunity to attack the soldiers and swing his kopesh directionally.

One by one the sword soldiers collapsed with their bodies split apart and lives lost. Havard lowered his weapon and stared at his car and mount standing still for some distance while letting out a grunting sound.

"Good, Bukefals." praise Havard for giving his thumbs up at the animal. "Let's find the survivors" he asked.

Havard led Bukefals into the village and he stopped at the square where there was an old square-shaped building that had been overgrown with moss.

It turned out that there were several residents, including the head of the village, Shaykh Hashim.

"Havard!!!" shaykh Hashim watched the man appear leading Bukefals.

"Mr Shaykh.." reply Havard.

"When did you arrive?" asked the old man while looking over Havard's shoulder.

As if to know, Havard replied. "I've just arrived and just finished off that squad."

Shaykh Hasyim let out a sigh of relief. "Thankfully you came..."

"Why not call Tel-Qahira?" ask Havard.

"No chance, son." replied Shaykh Hashim. "Bulis had no time to contact the capital. They did the biltzkrieg when we were off guard. The transmitter tower was destroyed first with a laser cannon before they drove into the city."

Havard. Shortly afterwards he breathed. "No why. What matters is that I have them slashed. Only I ask, the remaining members of Bulis immediately take care. lest they have time to make a radio call..."

Shaykh Hasyim nodded in understanding. "I'll continue your request." he said.

A moment later Havard looked at the old man. "Abi*), can I see Selena?" pinta Havard's.

*)a general call to an elder man.

Shaykh Hasyim sighed in concern. "That's the problem, Havard..."

"That's the matter?" havard's forehead immediately shriveled. "What's up with Selena?" asked the man holding tightly onto the old man's two arms.

"Selena... Selena was taken captive by Yahuda's forces." said Shaykh Hashim.

"What?!" pekik Havard in shock. "Then? Was he taken to Ur-Baol?!" push the man.

Shaykh Hasyim shakes his head. "No..."

"Then?" ask Havard again.

"He. he was taken to the Maung Fortress" replied Shaykh Hashim.

Havard was immediately struck by a tremendous shock.[]
