Patrick looked the thoroughfare that was wide spread out in front of them. Hiver's anticipation growing bigger and bigger waiting Patrick told him something. Finally, Patrick started it:
"Hiver, 23 years ago... i lived in a city call Ritardo. Yeah, Rotardo was a good place and i was a magician's apprentice under my teacher, Jimenez. He was a great magician at the city and many believes that he once met The True Magician and The True Magician gave him a magic stone called Orgol. The magic stone is very powerful...it's functioning to protect all magician's power in this world.
But, sadly...there were and are always have some 'magician hunter' who are fond to have the stone. So, my teacher got killed in one of the incident that cause him to give the stone to me.
He told me to take good care of this and when the day is come for me to give this to someone else, i must look for a magician with great aura as same as The True Magician's. And, the first day i met you i know you are the one. You have the same aura as he is...i don't understand this. Maybe you'll become the greatest one after this or maybe you're his heir"
None of his explanation made Hiver felt understandable. Hiver just felt that he was rumbling superstitious things with him, maybe he was half insane. Hiver ignored him again but Patrick never give up. To ensure Hiver, he held his hand. Hiver was quite surprised when Patrick dragged him to follow him. He shouted easing down the road and most of the townspeople looked at them.
"Help me! This guy is insane!!" Patrick continued to dragged him.
"I shall bring you to my place. I will hand you the Orgol."
They entered Patrick's caravan. He speed up his caravan and entered a forest with narrow path between the oaks. Hiver started to shiver. He looked around, felt really terror and horror shrouded the atmosphere.
"We've arrived...the time has come."
Patrick got out from the caravan and he asked Hiver to come too. But, Hiver never wanted to get out.
"Orgol is waiting...." Patrick gave him a grinned.
They entered an old hut, the hut smelt stale and fusty, rusty and all that didn't stop Patrick from taking a crystal box. He opened it and suddenly a blue light coming out inside the box. Hiver was eager and he move closer to Patrick. Patrick showed im what inside the crystal box.
Inside it, lied a precious shining green emerald look alike stone. with a striking blue light, Hiver wanted to touch it and Patrick let him touched the stone. The stone felt cold and rough. Hiver looked amusedly towards patrick.
"It's yours now...you can have it. Protect it, keep it... I shall tell you that this stone is very magic, it can help you to save this world from being harm. But, make sure that you don't feel greedy, proud or snob when you have it. Always share it with people. But, beware of 'magician hunter'... as soon as they know that you have this stone, they will hunt you until the end of the day."
The Orgol had been in his hand, the blue light shining again, caused his eyes to became closed and Hiver was clueless. He thought that he might be fainted.
When he opened his eyes, Dete was beside him. He was already at his home. On his bed, but the stone still safe in his hand. He blinked his eyes and looked at Dete. Dete looked towards him with lots of questions that he need to ask.
"People found you fainted at the bus stop. What you've done? Are you fighting with the gangster at that area?" Hiver shook his head. He then looked at the stone.
"I met a guy. His name was Patrick and he gave me this. This is very precious stone, it's Orgol. He gave me this stone because he believe in my great aura as a magician. He said that, there was a 'Great True Magician' and he have his teacher being the 'True Magician's apprentice. 'The True Magician' gave his teacher this Orgol and when his teacher got killed by the 'magician hunter' who hunting this stone, he heired this stone. And the time is come for him to hand this stone to someone else, and he found me. I got a great aura, he said!"
Dete wasn't unsure but he tried to believe the story. Hiver was so excited telling him and he need to listen to please Hiver.
"So, where is Patrick?" Dete asked him.
"I don't know, Dete. He was vanished... just like that but this stone. Hey! You gotta believe me, this is true!"
"Okay...okay...but what we need to do with this stone anyway?"
"He said that this stone got a magic power, it can save the world. Maybe, if we use this to upgrade our magic skills and make some earnings then it would be great don't you think?"
Dete took Orgol from Hiver's hand and he examined the Orgol. Looked elegant but mystery. He shook his head and gave a long sighed.
"I want you to make a try first."
"Fine!" Hiver replied.
Dete nodded and he took a handkerchief from his pocket.
"Turn this handkerchief to a paper using the Orgol."
He challenged Hiver, Hiver agreed and he stood from the bed. Holding Orgol and closed his eyes......

The Magician----Orgol
Clock indicated that it was almost 10 pm, Hiver packed all the left things at the table and clean it up before returned from his work place. He didn't bring the duplicate key so he must called Dete and asked him to return before him. After closing the place, he made his steps to the nearest phone booth and called Dete's cellphone.
"Yea, bro. Get home early, okay? I left the keys. Okay, bye."
He hang off and stepped out of the booth. He tighten a bit his jacket and made his way to hook a taxi. So, Hiver waited at the taxi station before a guy came towards him. He smiled to Hiver, but he deliberately replied the smile. The man sat beside him.
"You seems new here. Where is your origin place, lad?"
"Noted that it's not your business." Hiver replied it. He was laughing with the answers.
"My name is Patrick Jim. I lived in Papricorn for 23 years and you're seems new. I just want to get to know this newbie. I believe that you don't want to be disturb, so...i will make my way." He arose from the bench.
"Thank you." Hiver gave a cynical smile.
Patrick stared at Hiver's rugged countenance.It was scanty friendly with him. Patrick was smiling and he started the conversation. Patrick knew there were magicians aura around this city and he tried to find who was responsible brought that aura into this city. Maybe that aura belonged to a person with sordid feelings to him or to this place, so he should that person as soon as possible before his misdeed became huge and started to hurt the innocence.
Behind this gaiety city, he laid to protect it and himself. It had been years since the hunters chasing him for Orgol. He protected Orgol and the time had came for him to search The True Magician and handed him the Orgol that was with him. These months had been a difficult month when he sensed the strong powerful magician's aura and he believed that aura was connected with The True Magician. Finally, a week earlier, he met this Hiver who worked at the restaurant. He sensed that the aura was belong to that man. He should handed this Orgol before it's too late. The hunters would quickly detected him and Orgol after he managed to escape 23 years ago from them. If this Orgol fallen in their hands, the magician's world would be destroyed. Everything about magic would disappeared in this world, there is no magic anymore and all the magician would suffer. So, The Orgol needed to be handed by a right deserve person. A person who had the connection with The True Magician, father of all magician. This person wisely need to be property legally entrusted so that he safely return Orgol to the True Magician.
Here he was, sitting at the bus stop. Getting closer with the right person. somehow he need to made Hiver spoke with him even once, so that he would be understand about his job as Patrick's messenger to send this Orgol.
"Well, nice weather tonight. You probably loves this, and you probably doesn't want this calm nice weather changing into worst weather ever. Don't you?"
Hiver ignored the old man. He didn't have anything occasional to talk about. So, he better shut up before he said something stupid and left the old man with a bad impression about him. So, he might just left the old man rumbling alone and beside the bus were getting near and he need to go home. Felt really drawn with all the hustle bustle work the whole day.
"So, young man. Before i talk further... why don't you introduce yourself to me? Consider me as a senior citizen, you probably didn't want to be disrespectful, right?" Patrick didn't give up because he was confident that this young lad were the one. He believed,this young lad got connection with The True Magician.
"okay..okay...! Call me Hiver, i live not far from here but still taking the bus on way home. I lived with my friend, okay? What do you want from me?" Hiver replied it, but immodest. Patrick chuckled when Hiver started to get mad.
"Hiver, I'm going to tell you something but please...you have to listen this. Very important and urgent after 23 years i was searching the right one,now i know that you are,so..." Patrick quiet for a while.
Hiver waited with so much anticipation to hear what's next, while Patrick still find a force to explain about what happened 23 years ago...
"Yea, bro. Get home early, okay? I left the keys. Okay, bye."

Back To Basis
Police Station---Autumn sat, agitated waiting the officer to come clean about her situation at that time. She knew that she had killed Javier, and proud of that. At least that was the very best proud thing she could do in her life rather than wasted her time like she did before this. Now, without Javier her movement would be easy and readily. Without his evil whispered threat, she would be much peaceful than ever. Without anybody looked at her face, Autumn engrossed a smiled on her lips.
Hiver arrived soon, at the police station. His eyes wildly looking for Autumn and when he finally saw her, he was quickly went to her and embraced her with all the forces on his heart. Autumn quiet shocked with that but she simply get used to it. Then, both of their eyes were met.
"I'm so sorry...i will do anything possible to liberate you, okay?" Hiver's eyes were full with determination. And it was so fierce as a lion's eyes tried who was hunting his pray. At least he knew that Autumn did that just because to defend herself from being attacked by Javier, from being dragged back to her former unstoppable world of Javier that was once filled with misery and loneliness of women around him, women that he never appreciate. Autumn surely didn't want to be part of the world again, she wanted to make a new move which has been blocked by Javier, for his own never ending stupid miserable lust.
The thought has been there for a while, now all gone. The officer came between them and delivered a news. They were listening.
"we have received Mr.Jack-Andre Dete's report about an abuse happened between Mr. Javier Montaigne and Mrs. Autumn Carpenters. We've received the fully report and therefore, the administration has concluded that the murder was a self-defense act. However, Mrs. Autumn need to be put in jail, for 7 months. Please, follow us."
Autumn nodded, she seemed so calm and clearly received the penalization from the police. Hiver looked at her, felt sorry and all wrong, he held her hands and smiled.
"we'll meet again, Autumn. I swear, I'll be return here, to find you."
Autumn nodded her head, she was smiling and left Hiver without any word but she convinced him in her own way, her sight and smiled that telling Hiver she would wait for him to pick her anytime after this.
Two weeks from that day, everything return to normal. Dete and Hiver has returned to their home and performed their daily routine. They will work at night and day. Earning extra money to support their life in Papricorn. Or, when they was free, they would practicing their magic skills. While for Dete, sometimes he would be looking a banner saying that they need a skillful magician but he never found it since now. Hiver likely to stay focus on his two jobs, first as a salesman and at night he would become a pub watchman. It's went the same with Dete, this was they had to do for living.
And sometimes, Autumn would come slipped away to Hiver's mind with her tragic stories and the stories end. 7 months was a long wait, he probably couldn't meet Autumn after this. Maybe that girl had forget him, who knows? Hiver telling himself to stop dreaming of her. She probably in jail, suffering the sentences and he couldn't do anything to calm her, maybe Autumn wasn't for him. But, if they were destined to meet again, why not? He was ready to that time.
Dete's thought also revolving the same. He always remembered Autumn, and he didn't know why lately he seemed really want to meet her and talk with her. Was this an infatuation? Dete shook his head and saying, this is wrong. There's no chances for them to meet again and.. he was unsure if he like Autumn because in the beginning, he didn't feel anything towards her. If Autumn and Summer met, that would be the end of the world, Autumn and Summer never met because Winter would take the place first...
