Episode 13 : Almost Abduction

It is now early in the morning and at the pond where Bulan is sleeping, Sidapa just woke up.....

Sidapa: (stands up) (yawns) (looks at Bulan sleeping) you must have been tired ever since...... (looks around) and I think you are hungry from all of this travel..... (strokes Bulan's hair) I am just going to find food for us okay? I am kinda hungry too and I am new to this human body..... (smiles) be right back okay? (left)
Bulan: (yawns) (keeps sleeping)
*Kaja and his troops approaches the area*
Kaja: (looks around) so..... this is our plan..... I am going to head back at Dagatan Tribe and you 4 must go the Batumbakal tribe and continue serving the king.... as we always do.....
Bulan: (hears Kaja talking) (in his mind) Kaja? is that Commander Kaja??
Troop #1: but king Kaja... he is not treating us well.....
Troop #2: we rather go with you instead of staying there....
Kaja: I understand what you all feel... but can we still be patient... even just a little??? we are going to take over that tribe soon and we will all show that family who is the boss.....
Bulan: (in his mind) (feels surprised) taking over us?! no way!
Troop #3: (notices a body near the pond) wait... what is this??
Bulan: (pretends to sleep)
*Kaja and the other troops follows Troop #3*
Kaja: what do you have there??
Troop #3: (looks at Bulan) wait king... this is King Briseo's son and the soon king of the tribe......
Kaja: oh really? (looks at Bulan) he must be lost..... (smiles) you know what we should do to him???
Troop #3: kill him???
Kaja: not that fast boys... go and find a way to distract and make him lost... follow him wherever he goes and make sure he doesn't get back to the tribe.... and its been a long way, no one can find him here...
Troop #4: and where will we be finding you???,
Kaja: I will leave so that I do not look suspicious..... and I suggest you 4 to split up..... two of you will return to Batumbakal and two of you look after this kid.....
*the troops salutes Kaja*
Kaja: in this easy times, we must have more than two eyes.... one for that family and one for the one who holds the future.... (stares seriously at Bulan) (walks away) (left)
Troop #3: he just left us like that.....
Troop #4: can we touch him? what if he is dead..... cause, who could survive this place???
Troop #3: yeah... its better to have him locked down already.......
Bulan: (slowly crawls his fingers to the soil)
Troop #4: yeah... lets grab him up... (about to grab Bulan by the shirt)
Bulan: (grabs some soil and throws the soil on the troop's face) I am going to tell you all to my father and all about your intentions! (stands up immediately)
Troop #4: (falls to the ground) (screams) catch him! don't let him get away!!
Bulan: (looks around) (feels nervous)
*the 3 troops approaches Bulan*
Bulan: (grabs a very big rock) go!! come near me.....
Troop #1: he has a rock... what should we do!
Troop #2: this kid is known to be smart... be careful!
Troop #3: (screams) stop being scared... he is still the weak one compare to his brother!! (runs to Bulan)
Bulan: (smashes the rock to the troop's head)
Troop #3: (screams in pain) ouch!!! you rough kid!! (head starts bleeding) you all go catch him stupid!!
*the 3 troops walks forward to Bulan*
Bulan: I am not scared of you all.... (closes his eyes) (glares with charm to the troops)
*the 4 troops gets immobilized*
Bulan: do not mess with me...... (looks around) never mess with me!! (screams) (left)
*the 4 troops snapped out of immobilization*
Troop #4: where did he go???
Troop #3: (angrily screams) no!! we lost him!
Troop #2: lets find him....
*the troops nods to each other and leaves*
Sidapa: (appears near the lake) I am back.... (carries dozen of fresh orange) I stole this from the market... they did not see... (eyes widens at nobody) Bulan??! (feels worried) Bulan?? where are you? (drops the oranges) he left me again... now where should he be?? (keeps looking around) (disappears)

It is now night and raining at the same time, deeper at the forest, Bulan was still running from being to terrified by the troops of Kaja who kept following him the whole day.....

Bulan: (looks at the stormy sky) (feels cold) now where Bulan? where will we hide? (notices a very small cave) there! (runs immediately to the cave)
*a huge lightning strikes the nearby tree*
Bulan: (looks terrified by the burning tree) (steps back deeper in the cave) (cries hard) (sits on the floor) (in his mind) what have I done to myself?? (touches his stomach) (stomach crumbles) I haven't eaten and I am lost.... (keeps crying) why did I do this??? (hugs his knees and cries hard) why am I too dumb right now for my actions!!! I shouldn't have connected myself too much with him!! look, I am lost in the forest that was made by him.... or owned or named or... (screams) whatever!
Sidapa: (appears at the edge of the cave) (sadly listens to Bulan)
Bulan: who is he anyway? I never knew him and I trusted him already...... I shouldn't have....
Sidapa: (tears falls on his face) (clenches his fists) (sits on the corner of the cave) (keeps listening to Bulan)
Bulan: I really shouldn't have! (keeps crying)
Sidapa: (clenches his fists harder) (controls the rain to shower harder) (keeps crying silently)

Back at the Batumbakal tribe, Lakas, Liksi, Lakam and Lakan just got home after a very rainy search for Bulan.... at the hallway of the castle.....

*Lakas, Liksi, Lakam and Lakan enters the hallway wet*
Amaya: (closes the main door) glad you all are back.. we made soup for you.....
Lakan: really? (smiles) that is great.... I am heading already... (left)
Sahaya: so how is the search???
Liksi: can you see Bulan with us? (feels sad)
Sahaya: (shakes his head) no...
Liksi: then no... we do not have him with us... (left)
Lakam: (looks sadly at Liksi leaving)
Lakas: (looks annoyed at Liksi) he acts as if he is really a part of the family.... I cannot stand him anymore... (left)
Lakam: we are sorry if we failed to find him today..... (feels sad)
Amaya: it is okay Lakam... there is always a next time.... we all know how important he is to the people here like us.....
Lakam: (nods)
Amaya: and Lakam.... tell the boys that both our fathers have decided to announce the emergency search for Bulan..... we have to be there in morning for the announcement....
Lakam: (nods sadly) hopefully it can really help in finding Bulan....
