Presage Flower: Sapphire'S Sorrow

Marcus Collum

The ocean closed all his open books and neatly piled them on the table, the librarians on guard would return the book to its original place so as not to fall apart.

While they were on their way home, they saw some trucks for cargo, but were being boarded by some people wearing suits that seemed to be the alma mater of a certain university. Many of them led to the center of the city, but the Sky seemed indifferent to this event and still continued the journey home.

"What was that, brother?"

"Where do I know?" The sky took off her outerwear and now she's wearing a white T-shirt, "I want to do my job, you want to play wherever you want."

"Correct?"

"Yes, don't come home tonight."

The sky went into the room, while the Ocean went into his room, he picked up a backpack that seemed to have been prepared from the beginning, then he walked out of the room, took the key of the motor and got down from the apartment.

His phone which from earlier vibrated because there was an incoming call, now he can answer.

"Hey! Where have you been?! It's time!"

"Aahh, yes, it's me again."

"Hurry now! It's starting to blow up in front of the DPM building!"

"Haha! Okay!"

Samudra turned on his brother's motorbike and went towards the DPM building. There seems to be a very important problem that involves many people such as students, even high school children like Samudra and his friends who are waiting there.

The road is jammed, but the Ocean can twist like an eel and get to the road right in front of the DPM building. There are already many students, ordinary people, high school children, and even police with shields and cars with water-cannons.

"It's been a while?" Samudra asked his friend who was wearing a yellow project helmet, mask, and vest.

"Yes! Quickly get ready and escort our brother."

"OK."

Samudra opened his bag, there was a white project helmet with a green '+' image on the forehead, after which he used a mask, gloves, and vest.

"Marcus Callum the traitor!" Shouted a protestant.

"The board is not so good!" Shouted the other.

"Bring Marcus over here!"

Marcus Callum is the chairman of the House of Representatives of the Community who is currently entangled in a 934 trillion infrastructure fund corruption case and is in cahoots with other council members such as, Sultan Keryanti, Harun Harsadi, Axela Rosephe, and other members.

And the job of the Ocean, is to watch.

"Let us in!"

"If you don't want to go out! We're the ones in!"

"out! Out!"

"out! Out!"

They started shouting to negotiate, but unfortunately, according to Samudra's friend, this protest lasted for maybe 1 hour, and still has not been responded to at all.

"Dissolve this protest! The second warning will be forced!" A police officer said he used a loudspeaker.

"We don't want to disperse! We want justice! Destroy the corruptors of the Republic!"

"Destroy it!"

The ocean began to prepare for the worst possible event, so did her friends, they started walking into the crowd and the humans that were crowding gave way to the 'white helmet'.

The police started to move, they walked forward and started repelling the protestants.

The prepared ocean, pushed by a policeman, almost fell. Because the police had pushed him first, then, according to the rules of self-defense, the,

The ocean rammed into the police until she lost balance, the Ocean that saw the opportunity to scuttle her legs until she fell. One policeman fell in the hands of the Ocean, he dragged the policeman to be tied up by another bodyguard in the back line.

The same thing happened to Samudra's friends in the other row, they arrested the police and tied him in the back using the mines and handcuffs they carried.

"Samudras! They want to use water-cannon! We're retreating!" Shouted one of Ocean's friends from another row who was 2 yards away.

"Don't back off! We keep going until we can nego!"

The ocean ran into the police line, the police who saw it immediately tried to ambush the Ocean, but was thwarted by friends of the Ocean who helped.

"Forward!"

"Come!"

Samudra ran and grabbed a policeman who was carrying a shield, he handcuffed the police using the handcuffs that the policeman was carrying, then grabbed his baton.

"Hey! What the fuck are you!"

"Catch her!"

Samudra ignored his friends who were being dealt with and tackled other police, while he advanced into the car with water-cannons and beat up some of the police who were preventing him.

When they were handcuffed by friends of Samudra who helped, he then went to the water-cannon car while running and broke the glass window.

It may cost as much as buying a new bike, but he doesn't care.

"Hey! You fucking savage!"

Samudra did not care about the police's words, he clutched the helmet strap that was on the police's chin and suffocated her.

The police had no choice but to pass out.

Once the police in the car were downed, the Ocean could freely control the car and fire water-cannons from the inside.

"What are you guys doing?! You idiot!"

"Damn it!"

"Commander! They took control of one cannon and the gate began to collapse!"

"Use a rubber bullet! Shoot towards their feet and body! Don't get eyes!"

"Ready!"

The commander of the police force who tried to quell the anger of the residents began firing rubber bullets using an M4 assault rifle. Ocean who realize that in this car there are loudspeakers also use it.

"Naomi! Attack and take their rifles!"

While ordering so, Samudra fired water at 50 miles per hour and destroyed several armed policemen.

Naomi, along with her friends, seized a shield, a rifle, and a spare bullet attached to a police vest.

The resistance was fierce, the students who had just come also poured into the chaos, the reporters were not touched according to the rules, which apply, and the Ocean, which is now firing water, is in the spotlight for journalists.

"As seen here, as seen here, the rioting was inevitable and police trying to contain the crowd began to fall because a girl fired water using a water cannon belonging to the police and used it to take down the police force on duty."

"Some other students took police shields, rifles, and batons to fight back. Students and members of the protest community want open negotiations on alleged acts of corruption by Marcus Callum, and several other council members, following the langs-" coverage"

Sky turned off the tv, he did not think that his order to play around until dusk would be used to 'play around' with the police in the DPM building. His hands were on his chin, he thought of something before finally exiting the apartment and heading towards the DPM building on a city bus.

'Luckily he's my brother.' Thought Sky was on his way, 'But, since when can he fight?'

Various kinds of strange thoughts entered the brain of Heaven and made him almost miss his destination in the DPM building. When he came down, the driver refused to accept money from the sky.

"You want to protest, right?! Just free! There go! Finish the ********!"

"Huh? Oh, ok."

The sky walked towards the crowd with somewhat lackluster steps, he was still astonished by the attitude of the driver just now.

But his consciousness returned when he was hit from behind by a man running towards the protest crowd, Sky was silent on the outskirts of the crowd, watching his sister who was in a water-cannon car. Whoever succeeded in injuring his sister, the sky will immediately intervene and beat the police.

"The order to retreat!" Shouted one of the people who seemed to be the commander, The sky just came, so he didn't know anything.

"Retreat!"

"Retreat!"

"Lake in!"

"Open the gate!"

The car driven by the Ocean turned, everyone stepped away from the car he was driving, after that when the position was right, Samudra stepped on the gas pedal in one gear to knock and destroy the entrance gate of the DPM building.

"The chief is important! Into car!" Said the Ocean shouting.

Several people in different alma mater colors got into the car, Samudra drove the water-cannon at a slow pace accompanied by other students carrying protest boards and other media. They also shouted justice for the people and demanded punishment for corruptors in the DPM council.

"Hey, are you sure?" Ask the guy with the dark blue alma mater.

"Trust me." Answer the Ocean while turning on the loudspeaker.

"Community Representative Council! We demand the affirmation of the law against corruption and corruptors, also demand the cancellation of the change of law which will be inaugurated on the 18th."

The ocean stopped, she looked at the man at her side and behind her to ask for a correction. Everyone nodded, a sign that there was nothing wrong with the Ocean's speech.

"If you don't want this 10-man tank-like car in the lobby of the DPM building, then set up a table for open discussion on the case!"

The ocean looked at the watch in her left hand, then continued the ultimatum.

"We wait until 15:00 and there is no extra time! 15:00!"

Ocean put down the microphone and played music from his phone.

"Hey, don't set any music." Said the man with the yellow alma mater.

"Yes, I'm afraid it'll get messed up." Support the red alma mater, while others give a precautionary sentence for the Ocean, but not a word heard.

"If you don't agree, you go home." Samudra replied that attaching the phone to the microphone, it turned out that he was playing the national anthem of the Republic of the United States of Asia.

"Oh, this song."

"I thought what song."

"Ok, listen to me. If this works, you will read the demands you have prepared. I'll be inside and escort you, the reporters should be in, your friends who participate in journalism should also be in."

"Eh? Time should be that? You're this, deck, how old are you?"

"Yes, it'll be a long business if mass-"

"This is not a request, this is an order. Or do you want me to run?"

Everything was silent as Samudra said it, his face looked relaxed, yet it felt like he was being a chicken waiting to be cut.

Tuk tuk, the sound of the car door being knocked. The ocean looked out and found her brother was there.

"Sister?! What's in-"

"Open the door."

Samudra immediately opened the door and moved to the back seat.

"Soge away." Samudra said the person using the chocolate alma mater moved to the back seat.

"Ok, I see you're really 'playing' when I tell you to play."

The ocean's bowed, "Sorry."

"The light of the candle is what turns it off. Who's got trash to throw it away." The sky changed the position of the rearview mirror in the middle and stared at the Ocean through the reflection of the mirror, "You have to fix this."

"Yes." Yeah."

The national song that Samudra played had already been played 2 times, and currently, when Sky saw the watch on his left hand, it was already 14:58, he picked up the microphone and started the engine.

The gear is still neutral, the engine sounds roaring along with the sky stepping on the gas pedal.

"Hey you! You, you, you and you! Get in the car through the back door!" The word Heaven commanded all those carrying shields and rubber bullet rifles.

They came in and filled the back of this car.

"You hear me? The worst situation is when we break through the building. When this car stops, your job is clear! Understand?!"

"understand!"

"understand!" Answer them all simultaneously.

"Your job is to escort the VIPs, you hear?"

"Yes." Yeah." Answer the Ocean while taking the 'L' shaped baton from the friend behind the car.

"According to the ultimatum, at 15:00, we will enter by force. Please make a decision immediately before the time runs out."

The sky took out a mask and sunglasses from his pocket, then waited for his watch to change from 14:59 to 15:00.

The sound of the engine roaring many times, the students and other protestants were already preparing by giving way and shouting at the council to come out.

15:00

The sky changed the gear to gear 1, stepped on the pedal until stuck, the BEM chairmen in the chair lowered their heads avoiding broken glass that might break.

But Sky stopped the water-cannon car as fast as 60 miles per hour in less than 2 seconds, and it took 4 meters to barely hit the entrance of the DPM building.

The heads of the BEM chiefs crashed into the dashboard, which was sitting in the back crashing into the front seats, the armed guards behind all falling overlapping with each other.

"What is this?!"

"Weight!"

"My head!"

"Sister?!"

"Byeah!"

Some of them were in pain as the Sky braked suddenly for a moment before crashing into the entrance of the DPM building.

This is because, the police blockaded and made the letter 'O' with both hands on their heads, indicating that they agreed to have an open discussion with all the representatives involved.

"To all the protestant representatives involved, I repeat to all representatives. We are willing to have an open discussion. Please send a representative into the building."

The sky came out of the car, followed by the chiefs, the Ocean, and the armed bodyguards behind the car.

"As planned, from here the BEM chiefs will take over." The Sky said in command, "This child will be where you depend."

"By the way, who are you?" Ask the guy with the chocolate alma mater.

"I'm your superior. Now go."

The man with the chocolate alma mater was buzzing, he entered with the other chiefs.

The ocean that left left the sky next to the car turned around and saluted. The sky that saw him saluted the Ocean and he returned with the BEM chiefs.

Inside the building, in a room, the BEM chiefs were on one side of a prepared table. The board is on the other side of the table. Journalists, whether professional, from the television station, or amateur, are all in this room, covering what will be discussed, then Samudra stands, next to the BEM chairmen with a resting position in place.

"Let's open this discussion by introducing ourselves from the BEM chairmen of various univ here." Said the woman who mediated the discussion, she was in the middle of the two tables facing each other.

"Okay, my name is Stepan Stoyovski, chairman of the BEM Liberty Conservatory." Said the man wearing a dark blue alma mater.

"I'm Dieter Urt Tarmami, president of BEM University of the Republic." Said the man wearing a chocolate alma mater.

"I'm Yamauchi Kaede, chairman of BEM Harna Ver Institution." Said the woman with the red alma mater.

"I Nugraha Disa Kirtana, chairman of BEM Arte Ver Institution." Said the man wearing a black alma mater.

"Alright, all BEM leaders have introduced themselves, then from the parties involved and feel the need to do it." The moderator woman.

"I'm Samudra Sapphire, first year of Long State High School." Said Samudra while removing his mask and helmet.

"I'm Naomi Sakuragi, first year of Long State High School." He said while removing the gas mask to avoid tear gas.

"I'm Yulida Krisanti, a student at Armstrong Ver Universitat." He said while bowing his head.

Journalists were busy photographing the faces present in this room, let alone the beautiful ocean, with the rest of the bruises on the temple due to police bumps and dust that littered his face.

"Well, everyone involved has introduced themselves. I am Nashta Jhaha as a moderator and mediator in an open discussion of the protests by several layers of the community with students as the majority."

While all the councils and representatives were having discussions, Sky outside was watching a live broadcast from the screen in front of the DPM building that was airing a live broadcast inside the room.

"Well, since you introduced yourself, you don't have to wear a mask anymore, do you?" Ask a student to a friend.

"Well, they are all intelligent and have the capacity, so they dare to go there."

"Agree me, let alone that high school kid named Samudra." The student took a sip of water from his mineral bottle, "I saw with my own eyes, he took over the water cannon, you know."

"Well, if that's all you know. Ask here." His friend asked for water and took a sip, "But see him take over the car from the apparatus, kinda, goosebumps, huh?"

"Let's be it. He's a high school kid, first grade. Wow, that's crazy."

The sky listened to their talks without commenting, he remained focused with the broadcast being aired as a transparent form of democracy from the government.

"the genesis of the legislation to be replaced, that is, the first point is to establish the House of Representatives as an independent institution that should not be accessed or intervened in all information including budget, income, expenditure, expenditure, and other laws. This could trigger tremendous negative repercussions, knowing that Marcus Collum has been suspected of corruption as much as 900 trillion." Yamauchi read a piece of paper.

"Okay, is it still unclear? If it's clear, please answer by the board."

"I'm Marcus Colrum to answer. My allegations of corruption have not been proven by anyone, so-"

"Until you prove it, you won't deny it?" Cut Ocean.

"I'm sorry?" The moderator asked for validation of the intervention by Samudra.

"Marcus Collum does not deny that he committed corruption, and challenges to look for evidence. It's not that this is some kind of 'I've done my job neatly, please find the proof bye', is it?"

"Look, miss Samudra. What I mean is, if I commit an act of corruption, then is there any valid evidence?"

"If there is valid evidence, do you voluntarily confirm that you committed corruption?"

All were speechless, including the moderator who was currently staring at Marcus Collum from behind his thick glasses. The reporters were busy photographing the face of the Ocean until the light of the camera blits dazzled his eyes.

"Hmmm, if there's any evidence, I'll voluntarily admit."

Samudra nodded, he took off the bag and placed it on the table right in front of Stepan. He took out a few pieces of paper and showed them to everything in the room.

"This is not the original document from your office, I got it from the official website of parliament." The ocean took out the pen held by Stepan, "The budget for infrastructure in the Urdine area cost almost 1 quadrillion. I read the details of his budget and the gaffes."

"Mr Marcus Collum, can you explain what or who this 'firework' is? They're spending 320 million."

All eyes were on Marcus Collum, he stuttered with the speech of the Ocean.

"Y-ya-yah, I, that's right, for, for the celebration after it's finished building."

"really?"

"Yeah. Right."." Right."

"No other purpose?"

"Ti-nobody."

The ocean looked at Marcus Collum with a very condescending look, like he was looking at mouse droppings in a corner of the classroom.

"Well, then, I think I'm wrong."

Marcus Colrum sighed, he was relieved.

"But this price is a bit suspicious."

Marcus was surprised, the price of fireworks is not that expensive even though buying it at the most expensive price.

"Miss Naomi, check the price of fireworks on the market. Find the most expensive."

"Good."

Naomi, Samudra's friend opened the phone and searched the market price for fireworks.

"4000 per piece."

"Wow, Marcus Colllum. You almost spent 320 million to buy 80 thousand fireworks. Even the world sports festival only consumes 6000 fireworks. Can you explain this?"

"Eh, i-it's."

Marcus Collum struggled to answer, the BEM chiefs who were in the room smiled at the Ocean and gave respect as reliable people.

"It looks like there's been a wrong input of data."

"I'm sorry, but you said you were very sure."

The sky turned around, he went from the front of the DPM building towards a cafe not too far away. The customers are quite crowded, but still served as well as possible by the employees who work there.

"Want to order what?" Asked an employee while handing over the menu list to Sky, in a hurry he prepared to write the order.

"Two hot chocolate coffees, and a set of vanilla cakes."

"One chocolate coffee, and one vanilla cake set." Said the employee repeating Sky's order while writing in the order note, "There's more?"

The sky shook his hand, hinting the employee to leave, and he immediately walked towards the kitchen to make Sky's order. In this cafe, there is a tv that is large enough to be enjoyed together. At any given time, they broadcast a football broadcast or a music video, but this time they sang the news in the DPM building.

The sky did not focus on listening to what the BEM chairman who accompanied his sister from the tv, even until the end of the event and everyone in the DPM building disbanded.

Sky's phone received an incoming call, definitely from his sister.

"Hello?"

"Where's my brother?"

"Dostoyevski's Cafe."

"I'm going there."

The sky turned off his call, his order which he had not touched from earlier waiting for his sister's arrival. The sky raised his hand, he called the employee from afar, then he came to the sky.

"Can I help you?"

"White water, put it in this tube, and some facial tissue."

"Good."

The employee immediately went and did the Sky command, some other employees whispered and glanced cynically at Sky, saying, maybe because they think that Sky is a spoiled customer and want to always be well served.

The door opened, some people reflexively turned to the door and found the Ocean still wearing elbow guards, knees, white helmets, and vests. Some of them felt familiar with the face of the Ocean.

"Well, this is the little brother who was in the DPM building?" Said one of the male customers, "That's great, I salute."

"Wow, higher than it looks on tv, haha."

The ocean ignored them and immediately took off the helmet while continuing to walk towards her sister's desk.

From afar, Samudra can recognize his brother through the shape of his body. Very distinctive, and easy to find among the crowd.

"Hey."

The sky turned, he saw his sister filled with dust and earth, also got some scratches on the arms and bruises on the face.

"Sit down."

The Ocean sat on a chair, while the Sky knelt in front of him and held a tube filled with clean water and sprayed it onto the face of the Ocean.

Once felt enough, Sky rubbed the face of the Ocean with a clean facial tissue.

"I just found out you can fight."

"Eh? Hehe." The ocean chuckled, "I can't fight, really. But I have good reflexes."

The sky nodded, "It might be good that you watch a fight movie on your computer."

"Hehehe, honey what message?"

"You blind?"

"Of course, can it all run out on its own?"

Ocean was a bit hesitant when he saw some large pieces of cake, although he liked vanilla, but this cake was too much.

"It's just a congratulation." Said Sky who had finished cleaning the neck of the Ocean, he then cut the cake with a fork and gave it to the Ocean, "Try."

The ocean opened her mouth, she felt the well-baked pieces of flour taste so good along with the original vanilla fragrance and the right sugar.

"Well, that's delicious."

"Respect."

The ocean looked up, her brother sprayed water again into the neck of the Ocean and this time it was a bit down to the collarbone. The sensitive ocean removed her top button and let her brother pamper her a little.

When it was over, Sky put the buttons again and cut the cake again for his sister.

"Open your mouth."

The ocean opened her mouth and ate the vanilla cake her brother had fed her.

Then the sky wiped off his sister's body.

"Actually I can take a shower, but why do you think I'm a gini?"

"I haven't touched you in a while."

The sky had finished wiping the hands of the Ocean, then sat on a chair right in front of the Ocean.

Samudra smiled with her brother's treatment of her, her blood pumped to the highest tension and spread all over the surface of her face and ears to make it look like using cosmetic tools to look blushing, his hands flicked small many times, his legs could not stand still and continued to move like a drummer using his feet.

"Eat, your brain needs enough glucose."

"Hm."

Samudra grabbed a fork and cut the cake for her own to eat, while her brother was busy thinking about something. His face furrowed, his eyebrows nearly fused together, his nostrils enlarged and his lower lip looked like it had been bitten.

"Darling? What's up?"

Sky Daydreams were scorching, he saw his sister who looked anxious with her brother.

"You think, if someone wants to get into a bar but can't because they're not old enough, then what's he gonna do?"

The ocean took a glass of warm chocolate, not as hot as it was when the sky ordered it.

"Ah, about work?"

Sky nodded.

"Maybe they'll change clothes, use cosmetics, then leave after taking someone else's identification?"

The sky nodded, "What if you get caught?"

The ocean looked at her brother's eyes inwardly, "Instead of getting into a bar as important as that?"

Sky nodded.

"Maybe she fought for a while and changed her makeup in the toilet."

The sky stood up, then walked followed by his sister to the cashier table full of queues of people who wanted to order to take home or pay bills.

"Hey, queue dong."

"Go back to back, asshole."

Sky did not care about the people who were blocking him, he went straight to the cashier and threw some 100-dollar bills.

"Take the change, let's go."

The sky turned around with all the cynical gazes from the people to him, before

Samudra followed her brother, she bowed to the cashier as a form of apology, just like the East Asians. After which, she ran a little following her brother who was already far outside the cafe.

"Hello?"

"Archer, what's wrong?" Ask the princess from there.

"Gather all the higher-ups in the headquarters. We're gonna talk to the commander about the fucker."

"Well, I'll swipe if the commander is there and can be found."

The ocean turns on the motor, he heats the engine while waiting for his brother to finish with the Princess.

"Say this from Heaven, he'll know how important this thing is."

"You sure?"

"Four 6 nights, no rejection."

The sky closes the call, he rides the bike after the Ocean moves to the back. They rode the motor very fast, heading towards the headquarters. The first purpose of Heaven is to look for all the cases involved with the virgin with the relations, or the families attached to them.

"Sister, are we going to the apartment?"

"We're going to the mabes."
