Soil

Trapped

The journey of Prince Anggara to the Monkey Clan is very long every time, he passed traps, obstacles, even his life became a bet in following the mission given by his father. Together with his servants, he did his daily routine by finding food, resting when it was dusk, setting up tents to sleep with the wood he got from the forest.

"O Uncle Maruli, it's appropriate for us to rest first. The sun is beginning to sink, indicating that night is coming."

"True the prince. Slaves will look for wood for us to make a small tent to occupy for a while."

"I have said many times, if outside now I am no longer a prince, or whatever it is. just call me Anggara. anyways, Ayahanda forbid me to divulge my identity to anyone. If the citizens know our conversation, of course the problems that arise will be many. So, I beg uncle, not to call me prince." Anggara said that was immediately upset because his name was called the prince.

"Good, Raden. Uncle will get used to it from now on." Reply to that Service.

The air tonight is really cold. So cold weather, made prince Anggara shiver violently that at that time he was asleep. But before, it had never been like this. This made his servant worried and gave Anggara his long cloth.

"Son, put on this cloth of mine, what a concern for your present condition. At this young age of yours, you have been burdened with such great trust. May one day you succeed in becoming a just king like King Surya now." Whisper from Maruli so Anggara does not hear what he is saying.

The morning came. The sun reappeared with the chirping of a beautiful canary, making this morning so bright. The clump in the forest also looks fresh due to the presence of dew for every leaf.

The prince who was cold last night, woke up in a fresh condition. However, once he realized, he was already in a bound state. He did not realize that he was being carried by some monkey clan soldiers to his headquarters. Anggara who was still surprised, suddenly shouted.

"Aaaaaaaa................"

This made the soldier let go of their hands and look at Anggara's frightened-looking face. The monkey can speak human language. One of them asked,

"What are you doing here? your place shouldn't be here. We don't know where you're from. Or maybe you are from our enemy clan. So, we want to bring you before the Chairman so that he decides what he will do to you. There you may also say that you are no one, but a traveler who happens to stay over."

Arriving at the clan head's place, the soldiers immediately left the chief. The chief asked Anggara,

"Who are you?, what are you doing here?" this question was repeated continuously by the clan head, making Anggara's ears as if they were broken.

"Who said that to you?"

"Village people who are below. One more thing, chief. Have you seen my uncle? I left the village with him. If I hadn't met him, I would have scolded him. Please, chief let me meet him."

"Give the big man here!" Said the clan leader.

"Uncle!" Anggara said with surprise to see his servant hurt - wound.

"What have you done to my uncle? Why are there so many wounds on her body?" With an angry expression Anggara raised his face like he wanted to pounce on the monkey clan chief.

"He doesn't want to talk about himself. So I asked him to put in a place that contained our children whose parents were not hungry. The wound was probably from those kids."

Hearing this, Anggara became angry. With his strength, he managed to untie the strong bonds of himself, and immediately pounced on Sun, the monkey chief. However, Sun can avoid the attack given Anggara.

Sun who was already suspicious of these two people, with his strength he took out the Dragon-Headed Salamander Sakti Scepter from behind his back with his hands stuck to his back.

Anggara was surprised and smiled. Finally what he had been looking for all this time was in front of his eyes.

With the magic he learned, he fought the head of the monkey clan one-on-one. A fierce battle ensued. Anggara who is tired, just empty of losing his life. It was fortunate that he was able to evade from the attack of the layered stone cleaver, that was the typical attack of the Dragon-Headed Salamander's Sakti Weapon.

When Sun let his guard down a bit, Anggara immediately touched the weak point of Sun. Eventually, Sun was defeated by him and managed to obtain the Dragon-Headed Salamander Sakti by saying, "You lost, chief. Hand over the weapon or I'll finish you off in one hit and destroy the village and the monkey clan from here."

Sun who had no more power, gave up and gave it away. He also broke the bond with Maruli. Sun also apologized to the two of them. And promise not to torture people before asking first.

Finally Anggara and Maruli continued on their way home, because what they were looking for, he managed to get.
