Story from The East

Shuut!!

Lucas was now standing in a location where the area seemed to have been ravaged, he was a little doubtful about his current whereabouts. 'Am I in the East?' That was the question that popped into Lucas's head before he finally walked around the area.

Lucas is currently looking to the right and left, seeing the location of the city which is indeed very quiet. He could see that the walls of the building had turned black, the smell of burning rubber and black smoke carried by the wind made Lucas' vision blurry.

"Where did the people go?" Lucas muttered as he looked for anyone in the area, or at least he wanted to get a sign of life. But in reality, there was not a single person he met in that area.

When Lucas looked to the right and left, without realizing it, a bullet shot towards him and grazed Lucas's left cheek. The shrapnel from the bullet managed to injure Lucas.

The surprised Lucas looked at the source of the bullet shot and found that he was currently being targeted when he realized that there were a lot of lasers aiming at his body right now.

"Oh no!" Lucas muttered to himself, and at the same time, he could hear quite a loud explosion, making Lucas immediately use his teleportation power to go from his position to the place where the people were shooting at him.

Shutt!!

Lucas advanced fifteen meters from where he had been standing, and with that, the laser beam far away shone back at him. This made Lucas smile faintly, he felt that right now he was playing with these so-called rebels. Well… at least surprising them won't kill them instantly right?

DARRR!!

Gunshots rang out again and Lucas again used his teleportation to dodge the bullets that shot at him.

Shuutt!!

Lucas reappeared within fifteen meters of his original place, and again made the distant aimers target him again, and not even with small weapons or shoot guns, they were now using a bazooka to immobilize Lucas. Luckily, Lucas found out and disappeared again to finally appear in front of one of the people who shoot at him earlier.

"What??? where did you come from?!" asked the man who was now pointing a gun at Lucas. Lucas also looked at one of the men on the other side of them who was now trying to contact their team commander, which made Lucas frown and think if he should meet the commander too.

DARR!!

Gunshots were heard booming from inside the base which was on the top wall of the building like a guard and surveillance tower.

(It tells the story of a man who lives as a very valuable person in a rebel group he calls home and family.)

Once upon a time, when winter came. An armed gang was on standby inside the base which looked like it would collapse at any moment if they let their guard down a little. It is an old building that is already fragile and is no longer inhabited by its owners which in the end they make it as a place to live to survive as well as a rebel against the government they do not like.

A man with a burly body is now walking around the building, and every time he passes the people who are guarding at several monitoring points, the people who are on guard immediately pay their respects to the well-built man. From there, anyone will know if the burly man in the leather jacket he is wearing is the leader of the gang.

The man's name is Ron, he is the leader who is responsible for everything that happens and all the actions that the gang will take, all from him.

Ron's gaze was now lifted to look at the dark sky which at that time showed twelve stars falling simultaneously. And of course, it became a very rare thing, not only Ron who was now staring at the twelve shooting stars, but all of them in the building and the city witnessed it.

Ron's eyes suddenly widened in shock when he realized that one of the fallen stars was shooting towards them, which made them all run away in fear, while Ron just kept his head down.

SHUUTTT!!!

BUUMMM!!!!

The building shook as a loud bang rang out in their ears, but there was not a single explosion or spring produced by the star, which was of course a question mark to Ron and the rest of the rebels.

"Ron!!!" a call made by one of the children in the gang, made Ron now turn his head to look at him who ran to Ron who was standing still staring at the smoke that was created because the falling star was rubbing against their building. Luckily the star fell to the ground, and not the building they were in right now.

"We have to check it out!" Ron spoke to the three people currently standing in front of him, who then exchanged glances at each other before finally nodding their heads in unison.

Ron walked along with his three members who followed in his footsteps, but they walked a few steps behind Ron who was currently walking first. The three of them were timid people, having previously hesitated to approach the falling star.

"Shouldn't we just leave Ron? I'm worried if it's not an ordinary star." said the thin and tall man who now made Ron turn to look at him. The man looked surprised when Ron turned and looked at him quite sharply as if Ron didn't want his wish to be ignored.

"I want you to check it in person by yourself Dan!" said Ron to Dan, the tall, thin man who then suddenly grabbed his own head and fell unconscious. It made the two friends who saw Dan's behavior could only shake their heads in response to his very cowardly action.

Not wanting to bother, Ron, who was currently shaking his head at Dan's behavior, finally walked over to the Star which was about six to seven meters from where they were standing now.

"Ron… be careful." those were the words that one of the chubby men said to Ron who was now nodding his head and walking closer to the shooting star's location.

Ron's brow furrowed when he saw it wasn't an asteroid rock that he had found, but now he saw a baby sleeping soundly with a roll of paper and a cloth wrapped around him. Of course, it came as a shock to Ron and made no sense.

"Ron… what did you get? What is going on over there?" The two questions asked by members were completely ignored by Ron who was now holding the tiny baby. And when he walked up to the three members, the three of them were surprised to see the baby in Ron's arms right now.

How can a baby fall from the sky like a falling star? That was the question that was in their heads when they saw the baby who was fast asleep.
