It is now the next day and at the crystal falls hidden in the jungle, Aman and Hala were hanging out together while the other boys were hunting for food at the other parts of the forest......
Aman: (relaxing in a elevated flat rock) (yawns) Hala.... is this the life you have with the boys?? just relaxing?
Hala: (sitting on the branch of a big tree) actually.. we just do relax because we always feel like something bad is happening all the time... and in this case..... I feel like there is something wrong??
Aman: okay but... shall we relax first and just talk about relaxation? (happily relaxes) by the way.... where are the other boys at? they have been hunting for an hour already....
Hala: I can track them from here.... (looks around the forest) (notices Kidlat, Ulan and Lakam hunting at some parts of the forest) and they are very far away.. my eyes can really just catch even the furthest as long as it is a forest.......
Aman: they must have a lot of food with them....
Hala: yes especially that I am unknowingly summon creatures just for them to kill... I hate it sometimes but I am concerned that we all eat so much...
Aman: okay I get it now why they take long...
Hala: and did you know that I can also summon fishes like you... (stares at the lake of the falls) (summons fishes under the lake) look at the lake now.....
Aman: (peeks down and notices fishes magically appearing under the lake) what the?! (eyes widens at Hala) I do not know you can do that.....
Hala: well.. we are all connected.. the god of hell Sidapa can do what the god of fire does and vice versa.....
Aman: (keeps staring at the lake) yeah... I wonder where is fire boy.....
Sidapa: (splashes out of the lake) (feels annoyed) I literally murdered all the fishes down here because I wanna be alone and not be disturbed by how loud you all are this morning and fishes just summoned again?! (looks annoyed at everyone)
*Hala and Aman curiously notices Sidapa*
Hala: Sidapa? (swings down to the lake with a vine) (splashes to the water) have you been here for a long time? I noticed you disappeared last night..... were you here all....
Sidapa: (cuts off Hala) I returned next to Bulan and returned here by the morning... I just do not want to be in a dangerous place like that castle that is why I take my time alone finding a way to leave that place with Bulan and Lakas and think of what plans the people there are thinking of there......
Aman: (looks concerned at Sidapa) why? what is happening there???
Sidapa: I just have a bad feeling.... and I kinda have guilt these days... (feels sad)
Hala: I did not know gods like you.. especially you.. I did not know you can get guilty.....
Sidapa: you should expect me to feel guilty because a hell god like me is portrayed as a bad guy all the time......
Aman: okay but... what is the plan? we can help...
Sidapa: I do not know what the plan is.... because I do not know the problem coming.. I just know it is.... I am dealing with too much.... Bulan vomiting which concerns me.... my own guilt and also all of our situation......
Hala: (sadly hugs Sidapa) bro... I know you are uncomfortable doing this but.... we are here....
Aman: (hugs Hala and Sidapa) we will help you and Bulan at anything...
Sidapa: (sadly looks stressed) (slightly hugs Aman and Hala)It is now the middle of the afternoon and all the boys finally went back to the Batumbakal tribe...... near the castle, all the boys were there.......
Lakam: so ugh... (looks at Kidlat and Ulan) do you boys really want your own home or..... you can stay in our home.. where Lakan stays before... I know you two are closer than me and Lakan were..... by the time we realized how close we have to be.. of course...
Ulan: anything can be fine with us Lakam... (smiles at Kidlat) as long as we are near our brother....
Kidlat: yeah... this place is suspicious anyway... (seriously looks around)
Liksi: (approaches everyone) guys... you all are here....
Sidapa: (notices Liksi) oh hey Liksi... is Bulan and Lakas fine???
Thales: (walks out the side of the castle) (notices the boys) (in his mind) look at these boys.... who do they think they are to be allowed here.....
Liksi: they are fine do not worry...
Aman: (notices Thales staring at them) (whispers) boys.. I think one of the bad guys are here staring at us.....
*everyone secretly looks at Thales staring at them*
Thales: (confidently approaches the boys) hey lads!!
Hala: he is coming... be prepared.. (whispers to everyone)
Sidapa: (whispers to everyone) (stares seriously at Thales) no.. I can handle this....
Thales: (looks at everybody) you know what boys.... I really like seeing you all together because you all seem brave and strong..... you all could be a great addition to the army...... why not think about it?? (looks at Sidapa's eyes) and you even could be the general....
Sidapa: (glares at Thales) I only work for the boys.... Bulan, Lakas and Liksi..... (shakes his head) and seeing the previous soldiers die.. we are warriors to die...... (walks away seriously) let's go boys...
*all the boys except Thales follows Sidapa*
Thales: but all eventually dies Sidapa... you know that....
Sidapa: (evilly smiles at Thales)
*everyone looks at Sidapa*
Sidapa: you really are right... I know what death is about Thales... (glares at Thales) you should not have asked... (left)
*everyone keeps looking seriously at Thales*
Thales: (feels embarrassed at the boys staring at him)It is now night and at the bedroom of Lakas, Lakas was there preparing his bed to fall asleep......
Lakas: (yawns softly) (fixes his bedsheets)
Bulan: (sadly enters the room)
Lakas: (notices Bulan) oh ugh.. hey big brother.... what brings you here???
Bulan: (shakes his head) sleeping with nobody tonight because Hala, Aman and Sidapa seems to be hanging out lately......
Lakas: oh... (nods confusedly) so you wanna sleep with me?? I heard they are just outside with the other boys guarding..... but I think they really should..... I also have a bad feeling of being here.....
Bulan: (nods sadly) (sits on the bed) I also feel the same.. it keeps me up at night.....
Lakas: (hugs Bulan from behind) I know you are brave yourself but... glad I am here.. always been brave and now I am willing to do it for you... I am here Bulan.... going to be here more than my real brothers actually....
Bulan: (feels emotional) (nods) (holds Lakas' hand holding him)
Sahaya: (peeks secretly at Bulan and Lakas from the doorway)Do you find Sahaya creepy? But Sidapa can only make Sahaya creeped out... tune in!
