Okira Forest

Prologues

One day, in a forest called the Okira Forest, there was a group of students who wanted to organize a camping activity to commemorate the anniversary of the university. The group consists of seven people, namely Angga as the squad leader, while the other six members are Meri, Nano, Felix, Agung, Krishna, and lastly Yandi.

They decided to go there not without reason, considering that they knew that the forest was a very beautiful and enchanting forest that had some uniqueness of its own. Funds for departure have also been collected, the rest just to prepare luggage.

"Hi Angga! You are the team leader for this event. How often do you go to places like the ones we're going to?"

Agung asked Angga about his experience visiting deserted places such as forests that he had never visited before.

"What are you afraid of, gung."

"If you ask me how often I go to places like that, the answer is very often!"

“Malah Previously I have been to the top of the highest mountain in Indonesia, It has become a common thing for me."

“As a team leader, it's natural to have a deeper knowledge of those things, right?”

Hearing that, Agung fell silent and said nothing. As if there was nothing more to say to Angga. As soon as Angga finished packing, he gave instructions to his friends, and as soon as he finished packing, he boarded the bus he had rented.

Angga then left them to wait for them later on the bus. After finally finishing packing, the five rushed towards the bus to meet Angga who was waiting for them. Finally Angga, Meri, Nano, Felix, Agung, Krishna and Yandi set off towards the Okira Forest. They looked very happy with their cheerful attitude while riding the bus, unaware of the danger that awaited them in the Okira Forest.

On the bus, we talked one after another about our impressions of last year's camping trip. Among them are Felix who has followed four times this kind of expedition, Nano who has only once followed, Meri who has twice followed, Krishna who has five times followed, and who has followed, and Yandi who had never followed the expedition and camp before was also great. The two of them had both first joined the Expedition in the forest, so they both always asked other more experienced friends about this camping activity.

This activity was to commemorate the founding of our university, so we all decided to sing the university pride song for our 10th anniversary together.

Not only that, one of them, Krisna, seems to be carrying a guitar, and she is also an excellent singer, and Krisna sings along the way to Okira forest on the bus. The addition of guitar instrumentation adds to the excitement of singing on the bus.

About 10 hours after leaving Atma Jaya University, we arrived at the destination of Okira Forest. During the trip, one of them, Krisna fell asleep during the trip due to fatigue playing the guitar. They remembered that it was 4pm, so they decided to wake up Krishna immediately so that it would not be too late.

Waking up Krisna, who is famous for sleeping on campus, is not easy. But in the end, it all worked out thanks to Angga, the team leader of the camp team. Angga came up with a brilliant idea that is to use the wings of a chicken that he put on Krishna's nose. Krisna who felt amused in the nose area finally woke up.

The journey into the forest begins with Krisna who is still half conscious. The team leader, Angga, will lead the effort and be at the forefront of directing their exploration route. Angga has been preparing for this since the beginning by obtaining information about the Okira Forest from several well-known sites on the Internet.

“I have prepared a walking route map through this forest,” said Angga with the attitude and tone of a leader.

"I hope! You're all ready."

"Well ready....!"

We then sang the yel-yel pride of our university. To fill the silence that We will face in the forest. During the initial journey in the forest that We encountered was just endless silence, there was no animal that We could meet at the beginning of the journey.

The texture of the soil in the forest can be said to be very fertile because it is overgrown with various wild plants that I have never seen before. In addition, we saw a kind of circular-shaped plant on both trunks of the tree.

But, strangely enough, there was not a single animal that We could see there, not even ants.

"Although this can be said to be the first time for me to participate in camping activities in the middle of the forest."

"However! I already know that usually in the late afternoon this evening there should be a lot of insect noise, which is often heard."

"But none of this is weird!"

Yandi who since the beginning of the journey had already felt uncomfortable with the place, thought.

"There's nothing to be afraid of, as long as you follow my instructions, you'll be safe."

Angga saw the route on the map he held while convincing all his team members not to be afraid of the darkness of the forest.

"Okay chief...!"

After hearing Angga's words, they were finally convinced that they would be safe as long as they followed the team leader's instructions. Only Yandi felt restless and uneasy in that vast forest.

After walking for almost an hour, we decided to take a break first, and Angga instructed our friends to rest on some of the big trees around us to avoid the rain that seemed like it was about to fall.

"Best friends! We temporarily rested on the big tree that was there until the rain completely subsided." Pointing to a large tree not far from where it is now.

"In a moment, it seems that the rain will soon fall much more heavily than this."

Invite his friends to go immediately to a large tree, which seems to have a very strange shape.

"Yes Chief...! Understood!"

Said Felix, Nano, Meli, Krisna, and Agung who felt afraid of foreign places that he had never visited in the end felt confident with what was said by the pride, only Yandi who from the beginning entered from the forest was constantly agitated to see the surrounding forest.

"Why yes! I don't feel very good, same with this forest."

“Not only the view of the forest that makes me wonder, but the atmosphere around this forest also looks terrible.”

Angga who was watching Yandi who was silent watching alone in the surrounding tree area while the other friends started to take shelter under the trees, started to shout at him giving instructions.

"Well, you keep quiet there, Yandi."

"Let's join us, here!" Strictly speaking, Angga invited Yandi to join them.

Yandi finally decided to approach her other friends.
