Crickets filled my ears, it was almost dawn when Darwis woke me up. The cold temperature was so piercing, plus wind gusts that continued to hit the body. The body shivered slightly, even though the jacket had already covered it. However, it was not enough to withstand the cold of the air.
“Supply once he stays up and just sleeps now.” I muttered softly as I looked at the Dervish lying—tidur— on the dried leaves under the tree.
For a moment, the view turned forward, where there were only trees and dried leaves scattered. A dry and barren land, with no grass growing.
“Truly a bad place to take cover.” Both hands, get inside the jacket, so as not to shiver. “What a bad time to wake up.”
My back was leaning against the tree trunk, these eyes were so sleepy, that I finally yawned. I took a slow breath, then stood up while glancing around. Nothing is interesting, only the forest is filled with the sound of crickets.
“What a bore.” After standing up, I sat back down against the tree trunk, and relaxed my body.

Far away in another place, the black robe of a teenager, fluttered in the wind. He covered his face with a white mask, which only showed his eyes. In the teenager's right hand was a gun loaded with bullets. And behind him was another teenager who also wore a black robe and a white mask.
The place where the teenager is located is a cliff, with a view of the field that stretches. At the end of the field, there is a lush forest. He then pointed the gun in his hand, forward.
“In your opinion ...” The teenager began to say. “Do we need to kill the boy so Andrew gets angry?”
“Then, what's in it to make Andrew angry?” ask the teenager behind her.
“Maybe we can make him go berserk and finish off his entire Clan to vent anger.”
“Looks, your brain is shifting, so you can't think clearly.”
“Hahaha, I'm not serious about it.”
The two teenagers continued to discuss strategies to beat Andrew, although they were sometimes interspersed with jokes.
Not felt, time quickly passed, the sun began to rise, emitting its beautiful light. The teenager in front, put the gun in his hand behind the black robe he was wearing. His orange-colored hair was visible when the hood he was wearing was hit by a gust of wind.
“Maybe it's time for us to take action to finish off all the Clans that are here.” The orange-haired teenager put both of his hands under the cloak.
“Are you sure you'll start by destroying the Clan?”
“Why not? In my opinion, defeating that Clan first is a good thing.”
“If it's your choice, then I'll just follow.” Teen in the back, bowing her body to an orange-haired teenager.
The orange-haired teenager waved his black robe, then turned around and walked past the hunched teenager. “In the end, without the need for us to do anything at the beginning, we will definitely be the winner. Snake Clan, Dragon Clan, or Lion Clan, cannot defeat us.”
The teenager who bent down, re-enforced his body. A smile seemed to come from behind his mask. “I'm sure, we're the ones who will win.”
The two people still did not show their fangs. They simply continued to observe the movements of each Clan and watch in the shadows. No one knows where they are, other than themselves.

Before long, Darwis turned around to the back and looked at me with a sigh. “Why are you just silent?”
“Hah?” So, he wants me to follow him? But I really don't want to go in there.
“Follow me! Otherwise I'll kill you.”
What a shitty threat. If I knew what his limits were, I would have fought this jerk from the beginning. But, never mind, I better follow him.
With a heavy heart, I began to step foot and tail behind him. Even without the slightest intention in my heart to do so, the threat made me have to follow behind him. It turns out that right, my previous choice had changed the future by itself. I don't know if I should be sorry or happy.
As expected, the corn leaves that I went through were stuck and hard to escape from the jacket and pants that I was wearing. The plant seemed to attract me to budge. However, the legs still have to walk even though the view is slightly disturbed by the height of the corn stalks.
“Where will he take me?”
It's so annoying, I don't know where he's taking me. Is there anything in the middle of this corn field? Like a treasure? I would be grateful if I found that thing. But it is clearly impossible.
Suddenly, Darwis stopped until I almost hit him. He then pulled out a few corn stalks and threw them to the side. This guy's actions were so strange, what exactly did he want?
“Hey, what exactly are you looking for?” I tilted my head, staring in wonder at Dervish.
“Something valuable.” He answered indifferently, while throwing one of the corn stalks he held, far away.
I was still confused as to what he meant by something precious. Whether it's like a treasure chest or not ....
Immediately I walked beside Dervish, then observed the ground he had dismantled. He made me wonder what he was trying to do. I suspect that this man is dismantling a tool of war that became his secret weapon.
My guess turned out to be true, Darwis pulled out a long box made of wood. Let me guess, the contents must be an amazing thing and very useful for us.
“Are you so curious about the contents of this box?” ask Darwis, while sitting down to the corn tree with bent legs.
“I'm very curious.”
Immediately I sat down before him while continuing to glance at the wooden box he was holding. Now, let's see what's in there.
Slowly, Dervish opened the box cover carefully. He did not want the box to be broken. And it made me wonder what was in there.
“Come! Quickly open!” I can't wait to see what's in the box.
Ah, wait a minute. There seems to be something strange here. If this box had only been buried for a few days, I'm not sure the corn would have grown high above the ground. Or maybe this is one of the things he buried a long time ago.
