(POV Jean)
In the morning on Friday 14 August, there were many small birds perched in the trees in front of where I live,
the distance between the school and the apartment provided by the school is quite close and in front of the
apartment there are many trees.
"Uhhh… Friday, the first day of school huh." I tried to stretch my body after I fell asleep last night.
“Wow, what is this, “a strange phenomenon appears, rice fields are stamped with a dragon stamp” what is
this, hum?”
I read an article written by the local media.
After that, I went to get ready to go to school.
"Hopefully you get a good classmate." Jean prayed in her heart when she went to school.
There are 2 boards to announce the class division, I see a different board with Noir and his friends.
"Eh.. I'm in the same class with the three of them?" with a smile on my face. I mumbled in the middle of a
group of students who were curious about their classmates.
My next step was to go to the classroom in the corner of the school. When I stepped in, I saw the three
people right in front of me and of course I greeted them.
The four of us entered class 12 B. Already many people were looking at us.
I decided to sit in front of Iris and Lidya who were sitting side by side.
“Hey, by the way do you guys know about the recent rice field incident?”
I asked and several female classmates gathered.
"Ah.. really, there are some rice fields that look like they are stamped in the shape of a dragon's head behind
Sindro hill."
"Moreover, there appears to be a flashing green light phenomenon."
"Eh.. is that so?" Iris tried to deny that.
"EH yes, Ris, I saw on the web what I believe, it's true what it is." Answered Lydia.
"But how did it happen, they said it only happened one night, a normal human wouldn't be able to do that,
would they?"
"Moreover, the phenomenon occurred in 4 different rice fields."
"Maybe it's because there's a bunch of people having fun at night, and the flashing green light is being used
to scare people." Iris argued that she didn't really believe in mystical things.
"Let's go there." Invite a friend who is in the group.
“Really, let's go there. Are you three coming?"
"Not before, Far too far, Lidya and I also have interests."
"I'm not going either."
"Okay, okay."
(hey, Ris. Do you have any interest) whispered Lidya
(of course not, Hehe.)
"Hmmm." I heard what was whispered just sighed.
Well, Iris's personality I don't think is someone who likes to play outside.
Then at the second hour, there was an announcement that every class must be formed by a class
administrator.
"What if the 1st and 2nd rank are the class president and vice president." Said one of the students who were

in the Noir group.
“Eh…” Of course Iris and I were shocked, when they were about to refuse, many of the class agreed. And we
gave up.

(original POV)
Sunday, August 16th,
“hello, Ris”
“Yes, hello. What's wrong Noir?"
"Lidya's birthday is Tuesday, isn't it?"
"Just a moment……. Yes, what is it ,Noir?”
"Let's play on that day. While it's still a free day."
"Okay, I guess I can too. I'll invite her to play later that day."
Tuesday, August 18 2015,
"Lid, let's go with Noir later." Take Iris with them when they go to school.
"Umm.. it's okay, I'm bored at home all the time."
It was a sunny morning, the clouds had not yet revealed themselves, the sun had just risen from the east,
the two of them left for school at less than 6 o'clock.
Their footsteps reached the school gate,
"Hello Jean, how come it's so hard for you to come so early in the morning."
"Ah.. hello, well.. yesterday I went to bed early so I woke up instead of being silent in the apartment so I
decided to just go to school." Jean, who arrived from the opposite side of the two of them, was shocked
when she was greeted by Iris.
When it was 7 in the morning, Noir arrived at school.
"Hey, Ris, later?"
"So."
"Eh.. what's wrong eh." Jean who was in front of them must have heard what Noir was talking about.
“Want to go to the back of the hill to play, do you want to come, Jean?'
"Umm... can you?"
"You can if you want" answered Iris
"Okay, So why do you want to go there now? Didn't you guys want to go there last Friday yourself?" Ask
Jean.
“There's something special today” answered Iris in a tone that no one but Jean could hear.
After that, the teacher came in to give directions only. And after that the 4 of them discussed the rice fields.
After school. They all returned to their respective homes to change clothes, and get ready.
The distance from Sindro hill to the school is only about 3 kilometers and can be accessed by motorbike and bicycle.
1 hour after they came home, they returned to school, each using an onthel bicycle,
Iris using her sister's bicycle which was used for activities during college.
"Hey, afternoon." It turned out that Jean had arrived there first.
"Hello afternoon too." Lidya replied
"Let's go."
The trip to the place takes 30 minutes because you have to go around the hill.
“Phew…”
“We're here too. There's a lot of people here."
"Yes, it is true."
It turned out that at the scene of the phenomenon, many people came there to take pictures and enjoy the
beautiful scenery.
"Let's just go around and wait for the place to be quiet."
Then, the four of them went around on their own bicycles.
"Hey Lidya, look over there." Said Iris who saw a flock of birds moving above the many rice stalks in the rice
field area.
"Wow.. that's good."
Indeed, it was time for the rice planted by the farmers to be harvested in a few days, so it was not surprising
that there were many grain-eating birds flying in the rice fields.
"You've told your parents, right? I'm afraid we'll find it later," said Jean to them. And of course they have
permission to the people in their respective homes.
"Already."
The journey continues until late in the evening.
"Let's see the phenomenon again," said Lidya.
It wasn't long before they arrived in the middle of the phenomenon.
"Wow, that's beautiful." With stunned eyes, Iris expressed her admiration for the phenomenon, even though it
would be obvious when viewed from the top of the hill, they still enjoyed it in the midst of the phenomenon
that was once very crowded with visitors, now there were only four of them.
*beep beep beep.
The voice on Jean's phone reads
“Hello…. Oh yeah?… Well, I'm going home now.” Then Jean closed her cellphone and put it in the bag she
was wearing.
"Sorry guys, my parents are visiting the apartment so I'll be going home first."
"ok.. be careful on the road." Noir said.
After that, Jean quickly left the three of them.
The three of them thought for a moment and then…
“BTW, happy birthday, Lid,” said Iris, carrying a small gift that she hid in her hoodie pocket. While Noir
himself applauded.
"Eh ah.. oh yeah today is my birthday, thank you guys."
Embarrassed and blushing, she took the gift from Iris's hand
but…
“HUAHHH… what is that?” Noir who looked around was surprised by the appearance of 4 lights that floated from each rice field which contained this strange phenomenon.
“Run.. we have to run from here.” Noir hurriedly pulled the two friends to where their bicycles were parked not far from where they were. Then they both got on their bikes.
"fast..fast.."
With full speed, Lidya quickly preceded Noir but the green ball of light was getting bigger and blocked their
access to the outside.
Lidya, who was cycling at full speed, tried to crash her bicycle into the ball but she bounced off instead.
“auhh”
Knowing something like that happened, Noir and Iris stopped.
Suddenly there was another pattern just below them.
Their bicycles are absorbed and they are absorbed too.
"Ahhhh .." the three screams echoed.
"Ahh.. uhh. Who is that?" Noir who was absorbed in half saw that there was a shadow of a person outside the ball of light. And suddenly his vision faded.
