on a hill I stood staring towards the front.The scenery that was previously filled with dense trees now changed into a spacious courtyard.
the two long-fanged tiger statues seen on the left and right of the road where I stood signify we have reached the ruins of the kingdom before.
looking from this vast courtyard, I can confirm that this is a kingdom that was once certainly magnificent, it can be seen from the rubble of buildings scattered everywhere.
among so many ruins that left only one building that still looks solid.
in front of the ancient building we stood
setting our feet in front of the entrance, there are two snake carvings that extend from the top to the bottom of the door..
" bro are you sure we're going inside ? " a question was asked once again by the nico with a face that shriveled in fear
Previously I was very curious to enter this building, but somehow now no longer. let alone carving on this door is very similar to the snake I met before.
however, despite not wanting to. we have to stay in if we do not want to be exposed to rain.if our injuries are wet, it will take longer to recover.
we'll go in and out after the rain.
" duar ! "
in that darkness, the light from the thunderous lightning was clearly visible before disappearing and changing into a scene filled with mist again..
" hihh ! you see that bro. The lightning looks like it's giving a sign..
" keep quiet nico. Your words like that will only add to the fear for others "my words cut off the words of the nico standing right beside me
" oh. umm right. "
" we have to keep going in. Outer wounds like the one we both have will be even harder to heal if wet" I added once again to convince the others.no, more precisely to convince myself.
because right now we have no other choice..
" urmm okay "
" srrrr "sounds the sound of rain coming so swiftly flushed the area around where we were
" let's go in ! the rain is coming soon "
along with my voice, we tried to push through the big looking door.
but will..
" fuck. the door can't open ? "
" how is brother ? the rain was already seen getting closer and closer.we will be soaked if we stay here.we also do not bring taro leaves to shelter" said clara asked me.
" there is no place to shelter also around here" added Rara
" look ! take a look around the outside of the yard, "cried nico pointing down the hill where we passed before
in the middle of the rain that fell so fast that we saw some white crocodiles that had previously attacked near the river
" hihh ! what are the crocodiles doing ?? " said nico put on a panicked face while watching the crocodile's movements.
" it does look strange. crocodiles will usually go up to the mainland to sunbathe instead of when the rain is falling like this "clara replied visibly while thinking hard
" you forgot ?? this forest is indeed increasingly thought of more and more absurd.after all look at the shape of their size and color.which is like that is the same as the crocodiles you often see "
" true vinn. their legs look longer and their movement is faster than crocodiles usually "answer marissa noticed the white crocodile while holding her chin
in that difficult and confusing situation, I noticed a little light emanating from inside the pocket of the nico pants
" nico. what's shining out of your pants pocket !? "
" heh ?? " nico who was surprised to hear my words immediately looked at his pocket. "i.ini ? "
nico began to merogo in his pants pocket and showed me something that amazed me.
he took out a blood-red, round-shaped jade necklace in his left hand.
everyone is starting to look serious about what is in nico's hands..
" mata.mata ! " nico's shout broke the calmness of everyone around him, looking very surprised he threw the shining jade at me.
the blood-red jade looked as if it opened its eyes.one eye with a shape resembling a snake eye..
these jade eyes moved left and right after which the jade began to move forcing me to attach itself to the large door that was before me.
" greaaks ! " before long.the large door that was originally closed so tightly.now began to look open slowly
" pi.. the door is open ! " said Marissa putting on a surprised look at the big door slowly opening by itself
for a moment everything became quiet.
everyone seemed to be silent showing no reaction..
right now I can feel my arm that is over Rara's shoulder...
his body is shaking..
his eyes opened wide watching the events that were before him.he seemed to silently bite his upper lip before forcibly swallowing saliva into his throat.
but.., we have no way to go back
" let's go in "my word without thinking long brings Rara who leads me in
" uh ?? bro. wait a minute " while stepping in nico tries to hold me back
everyone looked so nervous after entering the dark ancient building.
" don't move recklessly in this place.we just need this place to rest
silence. There was only the sound of rain falling so fast. none of them responded to my words.
it seems like they are scared, they must still not believe what has happened.
I myself never imagined this could happen.., how could a jade stone show such sinister eyes and then open the door by itself.
sitting and leaning against the wall of the old building, I once again observed the blood-red jade that was in my hands.
humm ??
are his eyes starting to close?
" pi.. the door is closed ! the door is closed !!! " said marissa standing up and running trying to hold the big door..
ti.. won't have time.I won't have time to get out that door..!
" you guys get out ! soon !! " my yell told Marissa and the others to run out immediately
however, they looked reluctant to come out and tried to hold the door with their bodies all their might..
" hey !!! don't you hear me. Leave me here and come out !! get out now !!! "
" no..! we won't leave you alone here " said Marissa holding the door shut a little more
" we will come with you even to the death of bro." added nico with a faint smile on his face.
" get out without you. It's the same as living to die vinn "
" nobody would want to do that, brother, we better be together "
ah. end it already. You guys are so stupid.
too stupid to hang on to a fool like me..
" uh ? "
I began to fall down rubbing the tears that were seeping down my cheeks.
I can't hold back these tears..
you guys are so stupid..
so do I...
