The Resistance: The Beginning

Chapter 6 (field of death )

" hey Altan, what do you want to eat?."

" it's up to you."

" well." okay."

X went to the dining table with just one plate that spontaneously made Altan unable to bear to ask.

" whichever is mine X." "you said whatever.and I don't know what your taste is, so I didn't give you anything."

" if you want to take it there yourself."

With a heavy sigh Altan stood up and walked towards the hull of food storage that was not jau from where he was sitting earlier.

" which one's the closet!?." "an an,n."

"what!?." X swallowed his food to clarify what he was talking about.

" which one is X!?." "right one!." He did not expect that his new friend had a myriad of food supplies.

" which one can I take?." "whichever you like."

X gawked at Altan returning from his food warehouse with a plate that was very full of various kinds of food inside.

" why?, why are you looking at me like that?, is there something wrong?" asked Altan who was getting uncomfortable with X's look at him.

" only this time did I see anyone eating this much.why don't you just bring my warehouse here all of you." X's response was answered with a big smile by Altan.

After finishing eating X took him around his ship.he acted like a tour guide who was introducing his tourist objects to tourists who were still lay. Altan just nodded his head in a nod at X's explanation.he was very curious about the ship, because it was the first time he saw and entered into an object called a "ship".

" by the way how long have you been living here X?."

" all my life." "weren't you bored and want to move somewhere else?."

" mm. no. This is my place. I'm comfortable here."

After touring the ship. Altan asked permission to go to his group.

" you can't, exactly can't."

" but why?."

X hints at Altan following him, and he follows X because he wants to know why X forbade him to leave.

Turns out X took him to the deck area of the ship where he could see almost the entire direction from here.

" well, there, do you see it?" asked X, pointing to something yellow.

" what is that?." "that's your way here, thatch field."

" so on, what made you forbid me from going there."

" from here there I thought it would take 1 hour, and now it's almost afternoon." "you'll be trapped there all night."

" there are no wild animals, right?."

" what do you mean' move places'".

" yes, I mean they can really live at night. They can tie your legs and erase your tracks.no one will ever know you've been down that road."

" the grass is alive, hahaha!. You make me laugh."

" it's up to you, but I suggest you stay on my boat first."

" well!, I'll stay at your house, and at night I'll go to the deck to see your bullshit."

" yes, yes, yes." reply X does not care.

Even the night has arrived. Altan did not believe what his new friend said, so he wanted to prove that what his friend said was nonsense.

" hahaha!. what!?, the grass lives.haduuh, I do not understand how the grass looks like."

Altan looked at the meadow with a smile that almost laughed.he wanted to prove that what this new friend said was nothing but nonsense.he would not believe it until he saw it with his own eyes.

" there are no living things here, how can I see that the grass is alive if I don't approach it" he murmured

Curious and not believing. Altan also began to walk towards the weeds by settling the sediment.

1 Hour he had passed by impatiently.he tried to fight his desire to run. because he would be exhausted to see and feel that the grass was alive.

" okay, so here it is. The field of weeds." Altan went into the field a few steps.he was afraid to forget the way home because it was blocked by the height of the weeds.

" look, there's nothing in here. there's no such thing as living grass.not even my tracks aren't covered back" just as he decided to go deeper. he was like hearing a whispering voice.from the weeds around him.he tried to find the source of the sound.he followed where the voice took him. until the moment it felt face to face with the source of the sound. he split the weeds with his hands to find out who was behind the whispering voice.

But strangely he did not discover who was behind the weeds until he realized that he had gone too far into the field, and what X said happened. he could not find out from which direction he had just walked.it all felt like it had never been crossed in the slightest.

" oh no. This must be just a dream.no no no no." he hoped that it was all just a dream. yet it was just a foolish hope to be expected under these circumstances.

Slowly he could hear the whispering again, and as he turned his head in that direction, he saw the weeds begin to creep on the ground, trying to reach his ankles.

For a while he could handle the grass, but over time his stamina faded. he began to get tired, he began to get tired, and the plants took advantage of the opportunity by tying each other to make Altan fall.

" huh, huh, how do I fight them." he muttered while panting.without realizing it he had been humming something that was nothing but a trap that had been made by the plant earlier. that made him fall to the ground.

"bruk!" the plant seized the opportunity to wrap around its legs.

"tolooong!!,tolooong!!" he cried.

he was resigned. thrashing is also useless.the plant began to wrap around his legs full.and began to rise to his hips.but strangely, the plant stopped for a while like being watching predators who will finish him. Altan was also confused by the behavior of the plant that suddenly changed.until finally he tried to see what made this plant dumbfounded.

it was the first thing he found when he turned his head, he could not see clearly who was carrying it. And how he carried it. All he knew was one thing, one thing, he knew who was bringing the light.

" are you okay, man?" he said, examining Altan's limbs with a glance.

" how do you know I'm here?."

" we'll discuss this later. Now let's get out of this godforsaken field."
