Batoza and his army
On the other side behind the twin hills
The evidence occupied by Batoza and his pass is a distant hill, to reach it was difficult. Because some fields are not easily traversed. The muscular bird survived. He was a spy from Batoza. After passing on the information regarding the Land of the Tree House, the muscular bird was locked in a very strong cage. Some of the guards brought into a dark Goa.
“We will use the bird when the time is right,” said Batoza's men.
“That's what we want. We must have a lot of strength and troops in order to conquer this forest, ” said the Batoza Guard in front of the men.
Batoza and his men behind the hill were preparing something.
“Quick transport his goods. Enter into the cave!” Batoza sent his men.
From behind the hill a man with a face covered facing Batoza. He whispers one. Batoza was half surprised by the sharp manatap.
“They are alive?“ Batoza muttered to himself.
The soldier with his face covered went off quickly.
When Batoza and his soldiers entered the Bui State of their Country, the welcome and applause poured out. They were considered as heroes because they managed to defeat the Land of Tree Houses.
A man with half a body wearing a tiger skin shirt met Batoza. “ Sir, the King is waiting for you there!” The soldier fixed his gaze while referring to the tall building on the hill.
To visit the hill passed a ladder made of mountain rock. From a distance the King with the Crown on his head. The King was wearing a black shirt with the edges of his eyes in white paint.
When Batoza and the soldiers saw the King they immediately lowered their heads in total obedience.
Batoza and his men headed for the palace made of stone. Some guards stood guard with spears and arrows. They were wearing clothes from tiger skin, what distinguished them from the rest of the soldiers was something that was on their heads. If they don't wear animal heads on their heads it means they are still lower-class soldiers. But if he wore the head of an animal like a tiger then he was the highest. And the head of the tiger is attached to the head of Batoza. Among the Batoza warriors were those wearing animal heads on their heads. There's wearing a bear's head, a crocodile, a chitta.
It is said that there are Soldiers who saved the King from the tiger when they were hunting in the forest. His name is Batoza. The head of the tiger. The tiger signifies power and strength. Therefore Batoza was appointed as an important guard on the side of the King. And Batoza also conquered the forest around them.
“Greetings King Agung to you,” Batoza saluted followed by other Warriors.
Meanwhile in the Land of Tree Houses.
Uta and Olige were having a serious conversation. “All must be prepared perfectly Brother. We can't possibly face Batoza's army with a handful of men. If we carelessly put together this plan, we will be destroyed. There is a hill that is difficult to pass to the place where Batoza is located,“ Uta told Sang Olige.
“How about we infiltrate that hill,” bargain Olige to Uta. “Let's have a group of young people at Tree House. We ask their opinion.” added The Brother. Uta still silent sign agreed. Some of the young boys quickly gathered and they seriously discussed the attack plan.
In the silence of the night some of the Tree House children were still awake so that they could hear what Uta and the Big Brother were talking about. From the top of the Tree House a child shouted.
“Are you guys not going to sleep?” while hanging through a large rope towards the crowd of Uta and his troops.
“I'm bored on a tree,” he said merenge.
“Cause in my room is dark,” the answer is short.
Uta and the others were astonished.
“Try opening your room. Then you will see the stars that will accompany you Dik,” reply Uta.
“Oh, yes. You guys may be right,” is happy.
“Come back to your room!”exclaim The Troop.
“Good Kak.” pass go up the tree house.
Uta and the young men in the meeting smiled and went back to discuss their plans.
The child screamed back.
“Reacted Brother is right.” shouted from the top of the house.
Uta and the Troops put on a surprised face with the boy's voice and returned smiling. While holding up the thumb the child chimed in with a smile and went back into the room.

Tomorrow.
Uta and some of his troops were already near a high hill.
Above the tree house Uta witnessed a vast green forest. And that padangan penetrates far into the infinite. “Really this is amazing,” the screeches in silence.
But the tree house was invisible to his eyes. Because he was so far away. The forest is surrounded by a river. As troops have been prepared to make traps on the river bank.
The army led by Uta was in action but definitely climbed the steep hill by sinking. Everything should look natural because they are not open. It is feared that there are spies from Batoza's men in the forest area. They sneak behind trees and leaves. Clothes are camouflaged with a brownish tree trunk to make it easier for them to camouflage. The more up the hill the more steep and very dangerous.
Rings and pointy stones circled even ready to wait to kill if dropped. Always be careful not to fall. The young men (who became Uta troops) of the tree house were already trained with such areas. They used to do that to go down the tree house without making a sound.
Until the middle of the first hill they stood for a moment. From that area they could see anything far away. Uta did not expect if the place could see a man wearing a mask who was on guard.
Uta asked his troops not to attack. ”Cut it down with a poisonous blower. Don't make a sound.” Pinta Uta to a soldier. The blower hit the back of the masked bodyguard and he fell down.
Quickly Uta's forces kept the man's body behind a tree.”Keep in mind this dangerous forest area.” Uta told his troops to be careful.
Uta and her army continued walking until they arrived at a steep ravine. He said in his heart. “This is impossible, heading to where Batoza is on the brink. But what can I do.”
Uta and her army used hard and strong bark to hold them back from the scratches of rocky and steep ravines. Slowly they came down after that they went up the hill again. New here looks beautiful scenery and very awake. After a long journey of finding the residence of the Batoza troops. Certainly with strict guard. Seen from afar all the complete troops were there.
