Satria Recovery

The atmosphere in the intensive care unit was extremely quiet, with only the faint sounds of medical machines beeping softly. Satria's body lay on the bed, wrapped in bandages that covered most of his wounds. His eyes were tightly shut, his breathing slow and heavy, indicating the severity of the injuries he sustained after the brutal fight with his mentor and the fierce battle against the Apex Branch Leader.

Dr. Arif, the head doctor, stood by Satria's bedside, his eyes filled with concern. He had dealt with many severe injury cases before, but Satria's injuries were different. It wasn't just the severity of the wounds, but also because Satria wasn't an ordinary patient. He was an elite soldier, possibly the best Dr. Arif had ever encountered, and his fate was of great importance to the military.

"How is his condition, Doc?" asked a military officer standing at the door, his voice tense.

Dr. Arif sighed deeply before responding. "His condition is very critical. There are many internal injuries and trauma that we need to address. Although he is stable, his condition is far from safe. He needs time to recover, and there is no guarantee he will return to how he was before."

The officer nodded slowly, his eyes fixed on Satria's still body. "We can't lose him, Doc. He's too important."

"I understand," Dr. Arif replied calmly. "We will do everything we can."

Although unconscious, Satria was engaged in his own internal battle. In his mind, the images of the last fight kept replaying. Every strike he made, every wound he received, and every scream from his own body were etched in his memory. He recalled how he almost lost his life when the Apex Branch Leader, a cruel and cunning figure, nearly managed to finish him off. However, in the final moments, unexpected help came from the military team that had been operating behind the scenes, watching and protecting Satria without his knowledge.

The military team, consisting of several trained soldiers, had been monitoring the battle from a distance. They knew that if Satria were to fall, their entire operation would be jeopardized. The decision to intervene came after careful consideration, and they arrived just in time to save Satria from death.

Outside the intensive care unit, the waiting room was filled with tense faces from several members of the military team involved in the rescue mission. They all understood how crucial Satria's role was in their ongoing major mission. They were not just saving the life of a soldier but also ensuring that their secret mission continued as planned.

Lieutenant Colonel Rendra, the leader of the military operation who had overseen the mission from the start, paced back and forth anxiously. He knew how critical the situation was. Satria was their spearhead in facing the threat from Apex, and losing him was not an option.

"We must be prepared for any possibility," Rendra said to his team captain, a well-built man named Dani. "If Satria can't continue, we need a backup plan."

"But sir, no one can replace Satria," Dani replied seriously. "He is not only our best soldier, but he is also the only one with enough skills and knowledge to face Apex directly."

Rendra nodded, realizing the truth in Dani's words. "We have to hope for the best. But in the meantime, we must remain vigilant. Apex won't stand idly by after what happened. They will move quickly to exploit this situation."

"What about Satria? Can we rely on him?" Dani asked.

"If there's one thing I know about Satria, it's that he won't give up easily. He will fight to his last breath. We just need to give him time," Rendra responded firmly.

Meanwhile, inside the room, Dr. Arif continued to monitor Satria's condition. He was accustomed to the pressure of working under military scrutiny, but this case was different. There was something more than just professional pressure; there was a sense that Satria's life depended not only on his medical skills but also on something greater and more complex.

Several nurses came and went, assisting Dr. Arif in maintaining Satria's condition. They worked quietly and attentively, aware of the importance of their work. Amid their busy tasks, a young nurse, Rina, couldn't help but ask Dr. Arif a question.

"Doctor, why is he so important to the military?" Rina asked in a whisper, her eyes fixed on Satria's still body.

Dr. Arif paused for a moment, looking at the young nurse. "He's not an ordinary soldier. He's part of something far bigger than we can imagine. And our job is to make sure he survives, no matter what."

Rina nodded slowly, feeling slightly burdened by the answer. However, she also felt proud to be involved in something so important. They all worked tirelessly, striving to ensure that Satria received the best care they could provide.

Outside, the sun began to set, casting a soft orange glow along the hospital corridors. The military soldiers in the waiting room started to relax their tension, although they knew that tonight would be a long night. They all waited anxiously, hoping for good news from the treatment room.

Meanwhile, Lieutenant Colonel Rendra spoke with his team, giving instructions on the next steps. They knew that Apex might soon take action, and they needed to be ready.

"Don't let your guard down. We don't know what they will do, but we have to be prepared for anything," Rendra said firmly.

Dani nodded and began organizing his team, preparing a defense strategy in case of a sudden attack. They all knew that the situation could change at any moment, and they had to be alert at all times.

That night, in the intensive care room, Satria remained motionless, trapped in his own dream world. Images of battles, wounds, and death continued to haunt his mind. However, deep in his heart, something remained alight—the will to survive and keep fighting, no matter what.

Dr. Arif stayed by Satria's side, carefully checking his condition. He knew that tonight was crucial. If Satria could make it through the night, his chances of recovery would increase significantly. But if not, they might lose their best soldier.

Time continued to pass, and gradually, night turned into morning. Satria, although still in critical condition, began to show signs of improvement. His heartbeat stabilized, and his breathing became slightly more regular. Dr. Arif, who had been working tirelessly, finally felt a bit of relief.

"He made it," Dr. Arif said softly, more to himself.

Nurse Rina, who had been there since the beginning, smiled slightly. "He's truly a fighter."

"Yes, he certainly is," Dr. Arif replied, looking at the still-unconscious Satria.

However, they all knew that Satria's battle was not yet over. He may have survived the long night, but the road to recovery was still a long one. And out there, the threat from Apex still loomed like a dark shadow, ready to destroy them at any moment.
