Grandpa Jaya looked at the two people with firm eyes, "I think I know where Satyo took Gara," he said.
"You do?" A spark of hope lit up in Wina's eyes.
Grandpa Jaya nodded. If he couldn't help save Gara, then at his age—nearing the end—he would not be able to die in peace.
"Please show us the way, Elder," Madha said politely, though his hands were clenched tightly, holding back his rage toward the maniac who had taken Gara.
"Wait!" Wina stopped them. "Before that, we need to go somewhere else first."
...
Gara's eyes slowly opened. He held his neck, which ached painfully. His arms also throbbed, probably from lying on something hard.
When he finally sat up and looked around, his eyes widened. He found himself inside a metal cage in an otherwise empty room.
Inside the cage were four other young men. One of them was sobbing, another stared gloomily ahead, and another showed no expression at all.
