Chapter 3 - The Symbols

Marcus walked in a different direction from his other friends, he walked towards his field, which at that time the position of the field was quite far from the position of the star that had fallen a few moments ago that they had witnessed. Maybe about ten degrees difference from the direction where the star fell.

Marcus paid no attention to shooting stars like his friends Instead, he deliberately searched, he was more worried about his fields and his house, he was afraid that his fields and house would be destroyed by the shooting star, but it seemed that there was nothing to worry about because the two things he was worried about did not happen.

"Hh ... Thank goodness!" said Marcus gratefully as he rubbed his chest, feeling relieved that nothing was broken between the two treasures. But Marcus's hand movements stopped when he could hear the sound of a baby crying, and Marcus was sure that the sound of crying came from his wheat field, which was now a pile of hay from the harvest.

Feeling curious, Marcus decided to walk up to the sound of the baby's crying, with slow steps. He made sure that he was approaching his field which was right next to his cozy little house.

"Oh !!" Marcus was surprised to find a baby lathe man who was crying hysterically on the pile of hay that he had just let pile up in the field. Marcus looked left and right, trying to find someone or whoever was there who had the heart to put his baby on the rough pile of hay. Marcus, who lived alone in his house, made himself not knowing who dared to come and throw this baby in his field.

"How could he?" said Marcus while carrying a tiny baby boy still crying. This made Marcus decide to pick her up and calm her down. Until finally the baby was calm in Marcus's arms.

When Marcus was about to bring the baby into his house, Marcus's gaze was now fixed on a roll of paper lying on the side where this baby boy was lying earlier, which might contain a message from the baby's parents.

However unfortunately when Marcus saw the contents of the roll of paper, the paper only contained a picture that was not known by Marcus, and what the meaning of the picture was. But Marcus realized when he looked back at the baby boy. The picture on the scroll is exactly the same as the birthmark the baby has on his right wrist. It's just that the lines of the pictures and the marks belonging to the baby have a difference. Marcus was still curious, but he could not stay there and let the baby boy chill because of the cold weather, so in the end, Marcus decided to go into the house and warm the baby boy in his arms

A lonely night, Marcus continued and endlessly stared at the baby who was now sound asleep on his mattress. At this time Marcus was faced with many difficult choices, the first thing does she know if she should take care of a baby alone? Or should he hand the baby over to the authorities and report it? But on the other hand, he wants someone to accompany his life like before, like when his children were still by his side and accompanying him.

"Besides, if I hand it over to the authorities, they'll also keep it in an orphanage right ??" Marcus muttered to himself, and that too made Marcus nod his head in response to that, and finally he also decided to take care of the baby boy who was lying in front of him that night.

A smile was etched on Marcus's lips, "Welcome home, Lucas "said Marcus to the baby boy who is now named Lucas by himself. After Marcus said this, a bright and beautiful light appeared from the sign that was owned by Baby Lucas, and it surprised Marcus because the color of the light was the same as the color of the star that shot and fell in his territory this afternoon.

From there Marcus believed that Lucas was not a baby unfortunate that was accidentally dumped by his parents, but Lucas is a beautiful star who falls and turns into a handsome baby who is destined to accompany him.

That's how Lucas was found by his grandfather, who Lucas didn't know about. And even Marcus never talked about shooting stars to his friends and admitted that Lucas was the grandson of his son who died right when the star fell. And miraculously, no one doubts the story from Marcus about his grandson Lucas.

FlashBack off

"I am a falling star ??" murmured Lucas asked his Grandpa who was now nodding his head and then said,

"I'm rasa… Not only are you special, but maybe the other eleven stars are just like you, Lucas. " Grandpa said to Lucas, and it made Lucas look down at the roll of paper that was still in the box down there,

"So, there are eleven other stars who are just like me, grandpa?? then where are they ?? where are they now?" asked Lucas. Hearing this question made Grandpa Lucas shake his head because he didn't even know where the other stars were.

"I don't know their whereabouts, but… You can find them if you want… and it seems like it is your job, Lucas! " his grandfather explained to Lucas. Hearing the words his grandfather gave, made Lucas feel doubtful about the task,

"Is that true?" Lucas asked himself, and looked at his grandfather who nodded in response,

"You have to find them, Lucas… don't you see? The world is getting messy, maybe one of them might fall into the wrong hands! " said Grandpa to Lucas who was now staring at him very closely, "Don't let them become earth destroyers, Lucas ... you have to find them and bring them out, take them with you" explained his grandfather. Lucas sighed and was pensive for a moment.

"Don't let them fall into the wrong hands and become destroyers, because you came to save the earth and I am sure of it! " said his grandfather. Hearing that, made Lucas look back at his grandfather, and then Lucas nodded in agreement with his grandfather's words.

Lucas glanced at the night sky which now showed thousands of beautiful stars, and behind the beauty of the sky that Lucas saw, he knew that what his grandfather said was true, the world they live in is already chaotic, and will become even more chaotic if one of them. they are turned into tools. Lucas also realized that he could gather them all using his teleportation and together, they would be able to protect the earth.

The page it has become a unanimous determination for Lucas, who now turns to stare at the birthmark on his right wrist, then crouches down to pick up a roll of paper which now reveals a symbol that is indeed similar to the symbol but has a slight difference that is visible there.

"Is it possible This symbol is a clue to me in finding another star, Grandpa? " Lucas asked the grandfather who was now nodding his head.

He looked closely at the symbol and one second later Lucas realized that his grandfather was coughing non-stop, which made Lucas feel worried and immediately gave Grandpa drinking water.

Lucas's feelings grew more and more erratic when the grandfather now looked difficult to breathe, which made Lucas immediately carry his grandfather to the nearest hospital using teleportation that he just found out.

With lightning speed he had arrived in front of the hospital, he ran with his grandfather on his back, and entered the hospital, "Help! My grandfather didn't stop coughing and it was hard to breathe! " Lucas screamed in panic, the medics who heard his scream immediately came to handle Marcus and asked Lucas to keep waiting for them in the waiting room.
