Tania stays in a room inside the Kadiri Palace where Prince Mahisa lives to lead the Kadiri area. Tania stands in front of the room, to see the sunset. She touching her belly and try to speak with her child.

"My child, please pray for your father, mommy so worry, he will come here without Bagaskara".

Prince Mahisa came to greet the Queen. Tania asked him about the king, but Prince Mahisa said that he hasn't received any information about the King, but he said that Bagaskara has back to pick up the king.

In the forest, the king found that his guards and the others were died. He didn't know what happened when he rested near the river. After that, there was the clatter of hoofs come up to him.

"Who are you?", asked the king.

Prince Toh Jaya got off his horse. He walked to the king.

"Don't worry my brother, I came to save you", said Prince Toh Jaya.

"Wow, thank you for coming here, but I can save myself", said the king.

"You need to prove it, brother!"

There was a fierce battle between the king and Prince Toh Jaya until the king put his sword at Prince Toh Jaya's neck.

"Do you have any last wishes before my sword cut your neck?", ask the king.

"Hahaha.. hahaha...", Prince Toh Jaya answered the question with laughter.

But suddenly, Prince Toh Jaya parried the sword that was at his neck, and he reversed the situation. Now he put his sword at the king's neck.

"Cancel the wedding, or you will never meet your wife and your children!", shouted Prince Toh Jaya.

Bagaskara came to save the king. He shot his arrow at Prince Toh Jaya's hand until he drops his sword down. Bagaskara ran to the king and prince. Then he put his sword at Prince Toh Jaya's neck.

"Oh Bagaskara, you are always come on time", said Prince Toh Jaya.

King Anusapati stood up, and he said to Bagaskara to drop his sword. Then King Anusapati reaches his half-brother's hand. He said to Prince Toh Jaya that he will cancel the wedding. He asked Bagaskara to write an announcement.

"I hope we can improve our relationship as well as before, you are always my brother. I never separated you with Mahisa, no one is a real brother or half brother, you both are my brother", said the King.

"Forgive me, brother", asked Prince Toh Jaya.

"No problem, you can back to Kutaraja and tell your mother if I have canceled your wedding", ordered the king.

"Thanks my brother, I will never forget your kindness", replied the prince.

Prince Toh Jaya back to Kutaraja while King Anusapati goes to Kadiri with Bagaskara. On their way to Kadiri, King Anusapati asked Bagaskara about the queen. How about the queen condition in Kadiri. Bagaskara told the king that the queen was very well. She was staying in the visitor room in the Kadiri Palace when Bagaskara left to pick up the king.

"Do you ever feel that my queen is different?", asked the king.

"Forgive me your majesty but I don't know what you mean", answered Bagaskara.

King Anusapati talked about his feeling, he said that the queen has different characters as before. The King thinks that his wife is a different person. But Bagaskara said that the queen had an accident that might be the accident that made the queen like a new one. But she is still the same.

"Ya, I think so, but I worry about something", said the king.

"About what?"

"If the real character of queen has back, I will lose my current queen"

"Don't worry your majesty, her majesty will always become her majesty"

"Thank you Bagaskara, you are not only my favorite guard but also my friend forever".

"Butler? I have some valets, I don't need a new butler".

"But this butler is different with others, he can help you"

"Well, no problem, but today I tired, please let me get a rest", said Prince Toh Jaya.

"Take a shower? what is a shower? my queen, please tell me what is the shower,, don't leave me alone!!!"
