[Old Warehouse of SMA Joglo]
This was the place where the students of SMA Meruya Selatan were held hostage.
"Alright... I'll call the chairman to come," Yud spoke on the phone.
"You! Watch them!" Yud ordered a large, overweight man to guard the hostages before leaving.
Hearing voices, Aswa woke up.
"Hooaammpphh..." Aswa let out a long yawn.
"Ouch, my whole body hurts." He felt sore all over and soon realized that he was tied up with ropes.
"Oi-oi, why are we tied up?" Aswa asked a second-year student from SMA Meruya Selatan.
"Don't call me oi-oi! My name is Riza! I can't believe you slept while we were being held hostage," Riza replied with a helpless and fearful expression.
"Eh!?... So we really are hostages?" Aswa responded casually.
"Oi..." The large man pointed his fist at the students in front of him. "Keep quiet! If you make noise again, this fist will hit you."
Everyone lowered their heads in understanding—except for Aswa.
The large man then returned to his spot, and the students of SMA Meruya Selatan glared at Riza with angry eyes.
"I-It's not me! It's him!" Riza nervously pointed at Aswa.
"Me?!" Everyone turned their eyes toward Aswa.
Guuurrlll
A loud stomach growl came from Aswa.
"Damn, I'm hungry! Oi, mountain carrier!" Aswa called out to the large man.
"Hah?!..." The man turned to Aswa, a vein popping on his forehead. "What did you just say?"
"I'm hungry," Aswa answered with an innocent look.
"Oh, you should've said so." The overweight man brought food to Aswa. "Here, eat a lot so you can grow as big as me." He flexed his large, fat-covered arms.
"Oh, thank you! Hihihi." Aswa took the food with his hands.
Seeing that, the other hostages started drooling, their stomachs rumbling.
"I-I want some too—" Riza began.
"What?" The large man turned to him, making Riza and the others shrink in fear. "N-Nothing, hehe."
As the man returned to his spot, the hostages looked at Aswa with jealousy. But then, as they watched him eat...
"E-Ehh!!"
Their eyes widened in shock. Aswa was eating with his hands—despite being tied up! The ropes around his body had loosened.
[INSIDE THE ANGKOT WITH ARCA]
Zzzzz... Arca was fast asleep in the angkot.
"This brat has been sleeping the whole time! Should I just kill him?!" The driver muttered in frustration.
The angkot was already close to SMA Joglo—just a straight road ahead, and they would arrive.
"You're dead!!!"
BHUAKK PRANGGG
The driver was sent flying through the front window, a knife in his hand.
"Aghh..." The driver groaned in pain, completely unconscious, before being hit by a speeding angkot.
He was sent flying somewhere unknown, while inside...
Arca had his fist raised, eyes still closed. "Ah, looks like I hit him too hard!"
Meanwhile, the angkot—now driverless—kept speeding toward SMA Joglo.
Wuusshh
The vehicle crashed through the front gate and kept going.
"How do I drive this thing?" Arca grabbed the steering wheel and turned it to the right, causing the angkot to veer toward...
Braakkk
The angkot smashed into the warehouse.
Students from SMA Meruya Selatan and others stood in shock as dust filled the air.
"Uhukk - uhukk... What just happened?!" A student from SMA Joglo coughed.
As the dust slowly cleared, a silhouette emerged.
"Ouch, I don't even have a driver's license," Arca muttered as he stepped out.
