Chapter 2

Two years later...

Act 1

In a city in South Asia

04.54 AM

The alarm clock inside Wara's room already rung for almost ten minutes but the sleeping body at the edge of the room didn't bother to awake. She only stirred a little to change her sleeping position on her cozy spring bed. The clock's alarm became louder and started annoying.

Wara opened her eyelids slowly. She cursed inside her mind for the noisy as her eyes stared sharp to the alarm clock. With her telekinetic ability, without doing a single move, she threw the device, smashed it onto the wall, and the room was in silence once more.

Act 2

06.33 AM

“Wara! It's half past six, honey! You could late for your school,” her mother warned her.

Wara walked down the stairs as she answered her mother, “Ok.. Ok..” She reached a glass of milk from dining table and drank it fast. After she took an apple with her, she hurriedly walked out the house. “Bye, Mum.”

She always worked out her morning like that; awoke late, went to school hurriedly and never had a time to take a breakfast. It was a fortune for her that she leaved near the school building. Enough with ten minutes walk, she will arrive on time at her school therefore she never came late, nor she came early.

This morning, everything turned out ALMOST same as usual. Right after she was outside the house, she felt a strange aura which never bothers her before and it wasn't human's. Right a cross the street, she saw a mysterious young man stood under a flamboyant tree. His age was around twenty with lean tall figure and dark brown short hair. His deep green eyes fixed on her.

Wara took a slight glance at him but then decided to not payy him more attention therefore she continued her walk to school.

Act 3

X High School, 01.32 PM

Wara walked out from her class as her school time ended. Almost running, she went through the corridor and reached the main gate. “Wara!” a boy's voice stopped her.

She gave her attention to her approaching best friend. Rangga walked fast toward her. His handsome face graced a wide smile. “Gosh, Wara. You walked as if chased by a ghost.”

Wara replied his smile. “I have something to buy for my mother's birthday at `Nature'.”

“Ah, right! It is your mother's birthday tomorrow.”

She nodded. “Mum asked you to come at her party. You have to come, ok? Or else, she would disappoint.” She continued to walk with Rangga followed her.

“I see that your mother adores me so much.”

“Yeah... she adores you more than her own daughter,” she complained and Rangga simply laughed for it.

Act 4

`Nature' Store, 02.21 PM

Only in about half hour, the two teenagers arrived at their destination. They were looking for an natural aroma therapy box.

“This one is kind a popular,” Rangga brought up a box filled with dry leaves to Wara but she shook her head after sniffing the aroma. “Well, I think My mother would prefer aroma which, tender and lighter. It's too heavy.”

Rangga nodded at her explanation and went to another side of the store and continued his searching.

At the moment Wara busied to find the right aroma inside the store, the strange aura she felt this morning before appeared once more. Immediately, her eyes explored every inch of the store space to find the source of that aura.

“No. It's not from inside the store,” she whisper in low voice as she gazed outside through the store's glass wall. On the other side of the road, she saw a young man; the same figure she saw this morning. His green eyes, once again, pointed at her.

“Wara, what's wrong?” Wara gasped at Rangga sudden call. Her widened eyes switched to her best friend and she could feel that her breath still unsteady. “No... It's nothing. I...,” her eyes looked outside once again but the mysterious young man was already gone.

“Hey, are you ok?” Rangga asked again.

“I'm fine. I'm fine,” she tried to change their subject as she the aroma box in Rangga hand. She sniffed to it. “This is good. Where you find it?” And then she went to where Rangga showed her.

She checked out some of aroma boxes so she could choose one as her mother present. As she was doing so, she felt another strange aura, which was different with the first. And this time, it was so strong. So close. Quick, she turned to the side where it came and she saw a red haired young woman inside the store, not far from where she stood. The young woman gave her attention suddenly and Wara could see her staring gold eyes. The gaze was very odd and drew fear from her very soul.

For a moment, Wara froze with mixed feeling until Rangga voice called her and brought back her to reality. She turned to him and said in hurry, “I... I'll take this one,” as she walked fast to the cashier.

“Wara, you sure you're ok?” but the girl didn't pay attention to his question. “I'm in hurry. I have to go, now,” she said as she half ran to leave the store, leaving him behind with confusion.

Act 5

03.07 PM

Wara stopped her pace. With unsteady breath, she leaned to a wall on the side of a street. She felt that something was wrong today as she through some strange events from the beginning of the day. Who were those two? She only knew that they were not ordinary human... or probably not human.

“You look exhausted.”

She shocked at the voice. She turned to the voice and her eyes widened at a figure of red haired woman who stood near her spot. The woman's face was giving her cold smile.

“Poor little girl. You looked so tense. How about give me a smile? It's so bad for Sula to die with that look,” the woman said. She raised her hand and somehow created a fireball as her smiled widened. “Prepare to day, Sula.”

Wara was aware that her life was in danger. Without second thought, she ran away from where she was but her move was futile for her attacker threw the fireball directly at her running figure. She was supposed to be died by the attack but a pair of strong arms rescued her and took her jump to the air therefore the released fireball hit a tree in her place.

It happened so fast for Wara to understand. When she realized, her rescuer already landed her safely on the ground. She took a good glance at his face and recognized him as the mysterious young man who she saw on the morning and at the `Nature'.

“Leave this place at once!” he commanded her. Wara nodded and ran forward to leave the place as fast as she could. The red haired man tried to chase her but she was blocked by soil explosion made by the uninvited man.

“You have to pass me first if you want to touch her.”

Her eyes were sharp on his. “Oh... Is that so?” She threw another fireball to him. He tossed the fireball to the air and then moved forward to attack back with his stone pieces.

She backed away. For a moment, she was surprised to see his power but slowly, her face graced a wide smile as her eyes sparkled in delight. “I see... so you are a Desha. Strange indeed for this time, Sidha-nasa sent dhemit to become a Raksi.” Her rosy lips let out a meaningful laugh and inevitable, she leaved the place in a blink of eyes.

Act 6

03.40 PM

Panting, Wara went inside her room. She closed the door and locked it right away. She didn't bother her mother yells when she went into the house without taking off her shoes. At the moment, she felt very dizzy. Her head was full with thoughts and unanswered questions. She dropped her bag to the floor and fell her body on the bed.

She took a deep breath. Slowly, she recalled all the unordinary events happened today. Started from when she saw the mysterious young man on the morning, the occasion inside `Nature' store, until the very event which almost killed her.

She really couldn't understand what was happening. Who were those two people? Why were they following her? And why was the red haired woman tried to kill her?

“Sula... she called me by the name... what did she mean?” she murmured as she closed both her eyes, tried to rest.
