The Twin Swordsman
Preparation (part 1)


"Did Rangga be killed uncle" asked Gandari's daughter with worry, "if in view of his ability I think it is impossible to wrestle the princess," replied Patih Danuraka,"but why has he not come here yet uncle," asked Gandari's daughter again, "we should wait here a moment longer, if he has not come then we are forced to continue without him,"patih Danuraka said.


With anxious and sad feelings, Gandari's daughter tried to calmly wait for Rangga's arrival, at times Gandari's daughter cried sadly when she remembered her father, who was still waiting for her, seeing the situation of Gandari's daughter, Danuraka's heart also became sad and sorry for her.


Shortly afterwards there was the sound of horse legs, hearing that the heart of princess Gandari was a little relieved and wished it was Rangga.


"Be prepared our daughter does not know who the horseman is whether Rangga or the soldiers from the kingdom of Markuraka" said Patih Danuraka warned.


Soon the horseman was seen, how relieved it felt to both their hearts after knowing that it was Rangga.


"Let's get out of here quickly, because after this we know what will happen," said Rangga, without saying much the two immediately rode their horses and walked after Rangga.


At Martapura Karang Hitam soon established himself as the successor king of Gandara and Kala Hitam was crowned as patih.


At that time also Black Reef did a major reshuffle of the entire palace office, ranging from senopati to his minister, he placed the disciples from the hill of the skull to occupy the position.


"After waiting for so long finally the moment like this arrived Black Kala," said Black Coral.


"Right, "said Kala Hitam, "good Black Kala prepare an army as soon as possible we attack Martapura to avenge the death of our teacher, as well as conquer the kingdom" said Karang Hitam.


"Then what about Gandari's daughter, his highness," asked Black Kala.


"For a while we forget him, because I believe sooner or later the princess of Gandari will come here, most importantly we focus on attacking Martapura," said the Black Reef .


Had Black Coral known Rangga's true identity maybe he would not have let go.


"We are going where Rangga," asked Gandari's daughter, I will explain that you two should follow me," replied Rangga by continuing to drive his horse.


In accordance with the words of Rangga without much question they also follow Rangga.


After a long journey they finally arrived in the forest of Argara Rangga region also slowed down the path of his horse and then stopped, stopping,


"i think we should go to Argara because we need rest and food" said Rangga,


"i think it's also so good Rangga," said Patih Danuraka, "please let's continue the journey," said Rangga immediately fled his horse.


After passing through the rice fields and villages they arrived in Argara, without waiting for a long time Rangga then went to the gate of the palace.


"Wait for Rangga instead of us looking for a shop why enter the palace," asked Gandari's daughter,


Rangga stopped the horse and turned to Gandari's daughter.


"Are we going to enter this palace Rangga," said Gandari's daughter repeating her question


"we're really going in" replied Rangga,


"but whether the king will accept us" asked Patih Danuraka, also doubting Rangga's actions


"Why not, let's hurry to the gate," said Rangga then walked, while the princess Gandari and Patih Danuraka were looking at each other, "how uncle,", asked Gandari's daughter, "we just follow him,"patih Danuraka said, then they followed Rangga to the palace.


"Open the warrior's door" said Rangga, the soldier looked closely at Rangga, and finally he recognized ,"the noble Rangga, he said,said the soldier then menjura respectfully and hurriedly opened the gate immediately.


Patih Danuraka and Gandari's daughter looked at each other again and did not understand, there were various questions in their minds.


"Gusti patih and the princess let's go in" said Rangga, with a confused feeling the two men entered following Rangga.


After arriving inside came some soldiers welcoming them, "welcome, noble Rangga," said the soldiers, nodding his head Rangga received their respects, "Is the father in place ,"asked Rangga, then , "the noble is inside with the princess wrestling," replied the soldier, "then say I came" Rangga ordered, "well your majesty said the soldier and left.


"can you explain all this rangg. Gandari's daughter did not know what to call Rangga, she became very wrong, so he went awry,


"why the princess hesitates to mention my name, call it Rangga is also okay," said Rangga, "me and uncle want an explanation from you right now," said Gandari's daughter,"if that's what the princess wants well I'll explain '" said Rangga.


Then Rangga briefly explained who he was to them.


"Are you going to arrest us" asked Gandari's daughter, having understood all about Rangga,


rangga had not been able to answer the question of Gandari's daughter, suddenly the king of Bargola with Dewi Kara came,


"welcome my daughter-in-law's daughter-in-law," said the king of Bargola happily,"welcome to dinda prabu," said Dewi Kara,


"my respect is homo prabu, and also kanda Dewi Kara, Kara,


"honor us your majesty and princess" said the princess of Gandari and Patih Danuraka, not to be left behind.


After that they were in herbal medicine by the king of Bargola to eat a meal,


then Rangga, the daughter of Gandari and Patih Danuraka, went to the king of Bargola.


"There is a need for what prabu arrived to come here," asked the king of Bargola,"look, my father will attack the kingdom of Markuraka which is currently controlled by the Black Coral senopathy and I want to ask for the help of troops to Father Prabu," said Rangga,


"Then what about the fate of king Gandara son of a prabu," asked the king of Bargola,


then by briefly Rangga told about all the events in Markuraka.


"If so good preacher, how many troops do you ask" asked the king of Bargola, "I ask five thousand soldiers of the king, "said Rangga,


"i will prepare well" answered the king of Bargola.


"I say thank you, Romo," said Rangga, "no need to worry about children" said the king of Bargola,


"How about we both prabu Rangga "asked Patih Danuraka, changing his call to prabu.


"For a while patih uncle and princess should be here, while waiting for the arrival of troops from Martapura," replied Rangga.


"I think it is also the opposite that Patih Danuraka and princess Gandari remain here" said the king of Bargola, "if it is best you think well," Patih Danuraka agreed.


"Then now I go back to Martapura Romo to get ready" said Rangga,


"good prabu heart," said the king of Bargola, "wait dinda prabu," said Dewi Kara suddenly,"what kanda Dewi Kara," asked Rangga,


"send my greetings to Dewi Sekar," replied Dewi Kara,


"alright Kanda," replied Rangga and continued to leave.


Meanwhile, in the hill of skulls ki Brajadara was watching his students who were training


He was pleased with the progress made by the students.After being satisfied to see the students, Ki Brajadara left them and went into the house.


"Why Ki Manggala from the valley of the soul has not yet come whether they have obstacles on the road "said Ki Brajadara, who was the leader of the village,


tok...tok.tok.sounds the door on knocking Ki Brajadara also rose from his seat and immediately made the door, what a soldier," asked Ki Brajadara, "I bring orders from the king of the Black Reef, "I bring orders from the king of the Black Reef, that Ki Brajadara and all his troops to immediately leave for the palace of Markuraka," replied the soldier.


"So he has managed to seize the palace of Markuraka," ki Brajadara said in his heart,


"tell the Black Reef that I and the whole army will leave immediately for the palace" said ki Brajadara, "then I beg you to leave" said the soldier.


After the soldier left, Ki Mangala came from the valley of the soul followed by his students.


"Finally you'll be Ki Manggala too" Ki Brajadara said ,


"are we going to Markuraka Ki soon" asked Ki Manggala,


"right now we're going" replied Ki Brajadara.


Because they did not want to buy time again, Ki Brajadara and Ki Manggala headed to the Markuraka palace.
