Dan opened his eyes, just to see a situation where all of these people were in chaos and shouting asking for help.

He felt a sudden pain in his head and a suffocating feeling in his surroundings, like a beast chewing his head into a thousand pieces.

Bit by bit losing his consciousness and drowning in the abyss of nothingness.

Cloud of slumber keep hovering in his sight, he asks himself 'Ahhh What the fuck is happening??', and the curtain of darkness fully devoured him.

"Hey call Old Geez, tell him there is a child that was drowned in the sea and rescued. Faster little Jas!!" a hysterical shout of a middle-aged woman while carrying Dan in her embrace, she ran in a manic manner that she almost stumbled in the sand.

"Yes Mother!", little Jas ran in panic, shouting "Old Geezer! Old Geezer!"

A sturdy man stops and squats in front of the middle-aged woman "Come on, put it in my back. You are exhausted enough to carry this young man."

The woman stopped and without a second thought she put Dan in his back 

"Go! this young man must be rescued, he might have been drifting for a long time and drunk a lot of seawater. Fortunately, he was washed in the nearby area here on this island.", pantingly said by the middle-aged woman

The rest of the villagers who flocked around them give way but still look worriedly at the child.

"Don't worry, Old Chief has experience in this kind of situation.", the sturdy man ran in the direction of the village.

***

In the Hut of the Head village.

Bang!~

The closed door was forcibly opened by little Jas, the lock of the door was destroyed by the mad charge of the little girl that even the door tilt slightly indicating the loose screw of it.

"What the heck are you doing huh little Jas! destroying my door lock! How many times have I told you to knock on the door if you need something! Think I wouldn't teach you a lesson because you're the daughter of Riz --" Shout of an angered Old Geez but was interrupted by the sweating little Jas.

"Old Geezer, there is a child that washed here and rescued, come! Mother needs your help!", little Jas ran to the Old Geez and grabbed its old clothes and pulled it, trying to pull the Old Geezer.

"What!? a child?, why didn't you tell me sooner, come here!" with one arm, Old Geez lifted the small body of little Jas and stomp his right foot disappearing in the gust of wind.

Little Jas felt the powerful blow of wind in her face forcing her to close her little eyes and tightly hold the arm of Old Geezer, fearing she would be blown out by the gusting wind.

When little Jas felt that she familiarized herself with this kind of feeling and wanted to peer what exactly this Old Geez does, the blowing wind in her face went away in a second 'huh!?'

And when she opened her eyes she saw in front of her eyes, uncle Tom and Mother look shocked by the way Old Geez and little Jas emerge.

Old Geez didn't give them a chance to question him but put down the little devil in his arm and picked up Dan in the back of Tom.

Old Geez first lay the child flat on the ground and loosen every clothes to make the child relax its tense nervous system.

Putting his palm in the chest of Dan and feeling the beat of his heart, he concentrated and felt the state of the body of this child.

He vision that there is a blockage to the air path and a stomach that is full of seawater, he pushes his palm that gently places in the chest of the child and makes a three fast push with control of force that he inserts to make a surging shock and guide it to push out the water and the thing that block his breathing.

Even though a Vocal Cord spasm occurs due to the child's drowning, the child still vomits the seawater in its stomach and seaweed was found in the seawater he threw up.

The child is still in an unconscious state but he is safe now. Its normal breathing is a good indicator that it is safe, it needs some rest and be heated to raise the low temperature of its body.

"How is he ?" Mother Riz asks the Old Geez, with a worried expression pasted in her face.

"He is safe now, let him rest for now. The seawater in his lungs will flow in its bloodstream, so we don't need to worry too much. It's a good thing that he was washed away here. Hey Tom, come and pick this child and let him rest in the house of Riz." Old Geez use his short sleeves to wipe the sweat in his forehead and breathes a sigh of relief.

"Ahh, Yes Chief!" Tom hurriedly answers and picks up Dan in his arms intending to follow the Old Chief's order.

The little Jas accompany Tom to help tidy the unused room in their house and curiously look at the unconscious child.

Old Geez looks at the back of Tom and little Jas toward the village and says "Go Riz, take care of that child. He may have been a child in a Merchant Ship because of his expensive clothes."

Mother Riz looked at Old Geez "What a poor child, to experience this kind of --" she didn't finish it but let out a depressing sigh.

"Go, I'll speak to others so that we can prepare for the incoming pirates so we can evacuate immediately." Old Geez didn't waste time and ran to the shore to speak to others and warn them to prepare everything according to the plan they create once there is a possibility that a pirate may come to this island.

Mother Riz looked at the sky, 'When will this era end? Why do we have to cower in fear in front of them? We just want to live a peaceful life'

Mother Riz grit her teeth in anger while longing for the smile of her son and daughter-in-law. 'I won't let you touch my granddaughter!' a determination emerges in her angered eyes while looking to the vast raging sea in front of her.
