H. The Journey

It was 7:45 p.m., Nafisah was ready to wear a jacket, long training pants and also brought a flashlight. not forgetting personal medicine, Nafisah wearing a brown scarf around her neck. This is Nafisah's favorite scarf, because Auntie made this last winter.

Nafisah came out of her room and there was already Nasmira who had just hung up her phone when she heard that Nafisah had come out of the room.

"are you ready?" asked Nasmira pleasantly, Nafisah only nodded. "Tomorrow night there will be my personal bodyguard who will bring a cellphone for you. Mommy will leave a message that you want to be friends with me. she said hang on with the mess from my mouth, who loves to talk, Mommy is really very mean to her own children". Nasmira sighed irritably when she said this to Nafisah, Nafisah only smiled and shook her head.

"Thank you, tell your Mommy that I will try to feel at home with your voice. The one who talks a lot, Nafisah deliberately teases Nasmira who is getting sullen.

"No, don't make your face ugly like this. You have to smile because later Nandra won't like you if you see your ugly face". Nafisah embraced Nasmira's shoulder and immediately Nasmira smiled sweetly.

"You're right, I must look beautiful in front of him. I have to always smile, because a smile will radiate an aura of goodness around us. Let's go out". Nafisah nodded and they walked out of the room simultaneously. bustle of students who also walked together to join the game tonight. Nafisah even had to hold Nasmira's hand because their path was so narrow to get to the lower floor. all the students used the stairs because the lift was deliberately shut off for the night, Nafisah had to sigh roughly several times because her shoulder was touched quite hard. why are they in such a hurry? they can walk quietly and all will arrive in time.

With great difficulty, Nafisah and Nasmira were finally able to go downstairs and started running to the back of the school, where there was a start for them to enter the forest. Nafisah put her eyes well to see where their group was, but because of the large number of people and the noise, Nafisah could not find Ms. Nandra or her other group friends.

"I don't see our group at all Mira". Nafisah said.

"I haven't seen them either, let's try walking towards the place where we gathered this afternoon. Who knows they're there". Nasmira said giving an idea, Nafisah agreed and they started walking on the right side where as they remembered, at that point they gathered this afternoon.

"Nafisah, Nasmira!". The senses of hearing the two of them were able to catch a man's shout, ascertaining both where the sound was coming from. When Nafisah's eyes turned and found a man named Steve waving his hand, then Nafisah knew where they were.

"They are... over there Mira". Nafisah immediately pulled Nasmira slowly to walk towards Steve.

Past some students who were laughing and some were also being instructed by their supervisor. Nafisah smiled when Steve greeted them with a warm smile.

"Thanks Steve". Nafisah said softly.

"no big deal.., Ms. Nandra has been waiting for you from there. he was on time, even less than the appointed time". we laughed at Steve's words, Steve walked over and we were told to follow. deserved from that we didn't see the group itself and the mentor. it turns out that Ms. Nandra is under a large tree and quite dark. This one person likes to be troublesome indirectly, thought Nafisah when they were in front of Nandra.

"All right, since all of you have gathered here. I want to make sure that you don't have a serious illness, does anyone here have trauma or phobia of something?". Nandra asked the five of us. Nafisah thought for a moment, is it good if Nafisah tells you that Nafisah has phobia? but if Nafisah is being scorned how? "Tell the truth, because we can anticipate before unexpected things happen in the forest later". Nandra continued his speech, it made Nafisah can't help but sighed slowly. Nafisah seems better to say it.

"ummm, I have a phobia of something". Nafisah said softly, sounding even more like a squeak.

"Just say it, don't be afraid". said Nandra, who had given all her attention to Nafisah's face at this time, as well as other Nafisah's friends. Nasmira even grabbed Nafisah's arm.

"I have a phobia with blood, I can't see the blood flowing. And also I can't hear the screams that are too loud". Nafisah said finally, Nafisah looked fearfully at Nandra's face which was staring closely at Nafisah's eyeballs. Even Nafisah has been holding her breath, afraid that she is afraid that Nafisah will be expelled from the group and even drop ot from this school.

"Then, don't be far from my side. For others, as much as possible help Nafisah so that things that lead to Nafisah's phobia will not rise when we are in the forest. Because cooperation and help are needed when we are in the forest, when we have crossed the border of the wall in the form of a wire and stand later. Then it has entered the wilderness, where it is a forest where there are many wild animals and others. Does anyone have a phobia besides Nafisah? ". Nandra asked looking at the other 4 people, but the four of them just shook their heads. Nandra nods and smiles.

"Well, to start this game, each of you is required to have a weapon". Nandra took the bag which was beside the tree and opened it, Nandra took out its contents. it turns out that inside there are already several types of weapons that are suitable for new students like the five of them to hold.

There were arrows and bows, swords, stun guns, whips, and spears. Nafisah is even confused by the tool, what is suitable for her who has never studied martial arts? And why does this game feel like an action film? Nafisah does not understand the meaning of games and why is there a school that allows students to use weapons like this ?.

"You can choose each of these weapons, determine based on your skills". When Nandra said that, four of Nafisah's friends had taken their weapons. Nafisah was left dumbfounded because they seemed used to things like this. are they in training before? or did they prepare a lot of things before entering this extraordinary school? it seems like only Nafisah who has no preparation whatsoever.

In front of Nafisah, now there is only Cemeti (whip). Nafisah finally gave up and took it, even though Nafisah did not know how to use it. Nafisah can see Nasmira grabbing arrows, Steve taking spears, Adell getting stun guns, and Rose taking swords. Nafisah is amazed when she sees her five friends like warriors in the film, and only herself is like a slave who keeps a whip.
