Angus Poloso - Legend of Ki Ageng Selo.

Horror 30 – (Test III) Lost in Kampung Anggal.

For some reason suddenly the unseen void world split apart, I don't know. But according to Surti, the three pets of jinn and their masters are gone, so that no one controls the magical world.

Hearing him, I was shocked. Are the three powerful jinn and also the Wiraatmaja family officials killed in the hands of Ki Sugeng? Thought.

But realizing its power, it was no longer a mustachyl. Now what is awkward in my heart is what and how to say all this to Restu and also Ayu's sister. Both of them will be sad to find this news.

After I got out of the world, I found Mela who walked over to me after taking her sling off to Feby. She hugged me and cried, expressing her longing for me. I can't be angry with him.

After that, I found the bodies of Herman's cake, Mr. Hendro, and Anton's brother who had been stiffened with terrible wounds, plus the four religious leaders whose death really made me powerless to see it.

“Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi raji'un,” said I saw their bodies wistfully. “...kek Herman, Mr. Hendro, and brother Anton, as well as the four leaders of other religions.May your worship be received at the side of God, because you have fought to save us all. Amen!”

On the other hand, I saw a great quarrel between Restu and Ayu who were desperately judging Surti.

“Have satisfied you, Surti... already satisfied!?” restu's continuous snapping pushed Surti down. “This must have been you, ‘kan? You and your majesty who have wreaked havoc on our family!”

Ayu Kak chimed in. “If you want to destroy this family. Let's kill us all, let the Wiraatmaja family never exist again on earth. Come!!”

We can all understand both their grief and anger. Being the only survivor, is not a bad thing.

“Guard~!” call Ayu with a shout. The three guards came out of the house, “Bawa and pancung Rizal in front of the girl. Let her feel the loss of the people she loves.”.

But when the two of them crossed the line, we immediately stopped them.

Quickly, the three guards brought out Rizal who was still chained by his hands. Rizal's gaze stared softly at his sister, Surti, and vice versa.

“Kak, what is sister doing..?” sahut Restu who seemed not to accept if Rizal had to be beheaded to atone for Surti's sins to the Wiraatmaja family. “Please stop all this, sis... I love Rizal, sis!”

Kak Ayu growled at the words ’cinta’ that was thrown from his sister's mouth. He immediately slapped Restu hard until he sat down.

“What did you say... You love Rizal!? Basic... Is your brother going to bless you after what his sister did, Res? Won't...!!”

We were all about to stop Ayu's actions that had crossed the line, but some guards came out of the house and pointed their machetes at all of us.

When we were silent, did not dare to talk, I somehow even dared to say uneg-unegku for the behavior of brother Ayu just now.

“Dendak will not give birth to peace. Revenge will only give birth to hatred, misery, and also despair,” my heart, making Ayu's emotions more overflowing. Quickly, one of the guards hit me in the stomach with the hilt, knocking me down instantly.

“Darling...” says Mela screams.

“Kak Umam,” added Feby anxious.

“Hmph, what do you know of my current feelings, young man from the future? Being one of the survivors of the dark events that befell his family was something I could not accept. Therefore, in order to vent my hateful desires, then I will sacrifice Rizal so that his little sister knows it will feel like losing her loved ones.” Answer Ayu's brother who looks crazy and crazy.

Ayu quickly seized a machete from one of his guards, and was about to slash my head. But before the machete hit my head, it suddenly felt an aura of darkness so thick appeared.

At that moment, somehow the machete held by Ayu's leg suddenly turned to Mela's hand, which quickly grabbed Ayu's leg's body from behind and pointed the machete at her neck.

“Stop your stupid attitude, Wiraatmaja.” Mela looked at Ayu's feet face with an evil look, as if she wanted to smash her body to pieces. “...Once you do this stupid thing to hurt her, I'm not afraid I'll kill you!” mela's molars contained thousands of threats, which instantly caused the anger and sadness of Ayu's feet to melt instantly, like both were helpless before Mela's dreadful gaze.

While my friends were silent, unable to move even a little.

“Mela... stop all this!” I said I told Mela to let go of Ayu's sister.

“But.. but, he wants to hurt you, darling. I can't let this woman get your attention.” Replied Mela who was still reluctant to release Ayu's sister.

“Mela... do you want me to hate you?”

Mela kept glancing there and there, as if thinking of something to answer my question just now. I know that in his mind right now it's raging, between letting go so I don't hate him, or slitting Ayu's neck and making me hate him.

“Not—, i... i,” said Mela who was still hesitant. Kyai Ghofar and Reverend Sutarno were still stunned at what I could do to calm the yandere girl.

“Oh, then, when we return to the future later, I will cancel our engagement and I will choose to marry Dela,” my fanciers continue.

“Not— don't him, anyway don't be the same him.” The answer began to fall. “She is a tomboyish, flirtatious, stalker girl, loves to get your attention, and always prevents me from getting close to darling. I don't like him, I don't like him!”

“Nah, then quickly release brother Ayu. He's harmless to me!”

With a heavy heart, Mela finally released Ayu's legs. Different from before, which was filled with anger and sadness, now Ayu's brother just fell silent, sat down, full of fear to find his life just one step away will be floated.

It was fortunate that Mela could still be calmed down in that old way. Dela was my best friend and Mela as a child, we used to play together when we were seven years old. Unlike Mela who is sticky, Dela is a girl who likes to worry about me so much, so I always help her, or it could be said that Dela is the one who likes to seek attention, although they both have childish attitudes and yandere traits, Dela has a much crazier nature than Mela.

Suddenly the sound of police sirens came to the scene. Apparently there was one of the residents who borrowed a local kades phone to call the police.

The police came carrying four units of cars, and contained thirty-six policemen inside. At that time, the police, under Ir. Trenggono, father of Ir. Rio in the future immediately gathered the information of Kyai Ghofar, the pastor of Sutarno and all of us.

It was in our hearts that Surti would be imprisoned. But knowing that he is not the killer and also because he is still a minor, Surti was free after giving an explanation to the police along with Rizal.

With the arrival of the police, conditions that had worsened, now began to stabilize. Although the story this time contains a lot of tears to lose, but finally ended with a good ending.

...

The next day, Cici finally managed to wake up. Quickly, Andre was the first one to directly ambush us all and meet Cici in his room.

Understandably, Andre is his girlfriend.

After that, we went in, asking for news. And thankfully his condition had improved, so that he could get out of his soft and comfortable bed.

I looked at him with a fake smile because of that. It was fortunate that she did not remember anything at all when she lived in the palasik grandmother's house, so I easily hid what had happened to her.

On the other hand, I got a letter from Kyai Ghofar telling me to be on the lookout for Mela, as it did not rule out the possibility that Mela would stab me in the back. He also advised not to make Mela's anger overflow as before, because we all know that the supernatural energy he has is too great and could get out of control if Mela feels angry or sad.

I understood all that, and steadied myself to look after Mela and all my friends this time. I don't want the events that happened three years ago to happen today, where I have to lose Astrid and all my friends.

In Cici's room, we discussed where we were going next. And because of the mysterious voice advice, the priority at this time is to meet with Mbok Ruqayah to cure Cici from the science of palasik that Sumatri's nek bequeathed to him, even so, the, I still don't tell my friends this.

“Oh yes, brother Umam, after I woke up in the old mosque yesterday, then what happened to me so I woke up in this strange place?” ask Cici plain.

“You are exhausted and passed out in the middle of the road to this Witiran village. Don't you remember?” answer lies. There's no way I'm telling you what happened when Cici was in Sumatri's nek.

“Ah, I will look for medicine at my great-grandmother's place. It's not far from here. You guys want to come?” my answer was to persuade them to come along. And thank God, they agreed. If I said I just wanted to invite Cici, they would be suspicious.

In such circumstances, suddenly from outside the room came the sound of knocking on the door, which after opening turned out to be Restu and Rizal.

They want to thank all of us who have awakened the entire population here, as well as telling that the residents of Witiran village want to hold a grand tahlilan event for the death of the Wiraatmaja family and also some villagers.

But we refused, because the next journey was an important journey to save Cici from the grasp of the science of palasik.

Yeah, all I know about Cici is me and Rizal. He could have cursed her and let us go when our preparations were done.

“Ah, what a pity... you can not pray for the spirits of grandfather, father, and also my brother,” said Restu restless and sad to find we can not come together. “What is your departure can not be delayed until tomorrow? We, the Wiraatmaja family are very hopeful for your presence tonight. Please?”

“Sorry once, Restu. We need to continue our journey. This is very important.” I answered trying to reject the request with a little coercion.

“Mhm, can we sleep here last night again?” pinta Cici suddenly. We were all shocked to hear Cici say that. And after making a decision again, we will finally stay overnight again in this village to participate in the big tahlilan.

Once satisfied, Restu immediately lifted his foot from there, followed by all my friends who wanted to go out looking for a fresh breeze. Leaving me and Rizal in my own room.

“How is he, sir? Ask Rizal directly to the main topic. “Is the science of palasik already inhabits non Cici body perfectly?”

“...I don't know. But thanks to that green prayer mat, I can still control its spread.” My answer is flat, filled with seriousness and worry. “I don't know if the science is latent in his body, but the most important thing right now is to hide this to him and his friends. I got a hunch that only my great-grandmother could cure Cici at this time.”

We were silent for a long time after that.

“Then, how about Surti?” my many.

“She was in shock over yesterday, but thank God, she is still alive,” replied Rizal in relief. “So that loli girl you've been looking for all this time, huh sir? I didn't think she was that kind of girl. But there is something I have to say about him. He's very dangerous!”

Before hearing the words I was about to say, Rizal had already left just like that, leaving me alone in the room.

“Yes, I know that..” murmured.

...

In the evening, we all participated in a grand ceremony held right in front of the Wiraatmaja residence. The tahlilan event runs with fervor and pleasure because of the arrival of invited speakers from various villages to pray for the spirits who died last night.

Before the event began, Si Surti continued to prostrate towards all of us, apologizing for the incident that happened yesterday. Quickly, I immediately raised his head and told him not to do the act of prostration again. For we are not a God worthy of worship and forgiveness.

And may their acts of worship all be accepted by Allah SWT and their sins be forgiven by Him.

From then on, Rizal and his sister will stay beside the Wiraatmaja residence. There was a kind person who willingly lent his house to the two orphans.

...

The next morning, we all decided to continue our journey. However, before leaving, Ayu reminded something that there would be great danger ahead. And before we asked what the danger would be, Ayu's brother had already returned to his residence.

“Just be careful. I don't want to bring back the bodies of boys like you here.” Says Ayu ketus. He also passed.

“...Ayu's hunch is always right. So, I beg you to obey him.” Sahut Restu.

“Iya, we know. But what dangers does Ayu's sister want to convey?” just pissed. Want to get certainty, uh, even confusing puzzles.

“At the border end of this village there are three paths. First, the path that leads to another village, the second path that leads to the brantas river, and the third is the path to the magical village,” replied Restu who was like afraid to explain. “Whatever happens, you do not enter the village. If you can, if you hear the sound of gamelan at night and there are no stars or moons, you should.”.

“Tell me!” force Andre.

“Do not know. There is no other way to survive. Every third month at the beginning of the year, a third path always appears and the gate of the magical village is open. Therefore, I advise you to be careful and whatever happens do not let you cross the bridge in the third lane, even if you are shown sightings that make you miss someone!”

“What is the name of the village and how is the story?” manya curious. Before leaving, it is better if we look for a lot of info first. Just in case. “Kok looks like you guys are afraid to enter the village?”

“The Village of the Dead Fog is commonly known by people here, but if the real name is the village of Plesiran Londo, that is what the elders here say,” replied Restu hesitated to tell, “If it's true I don't know. But, the late grandfather had the history book of the village in the library. If you want, let Rizal bring it to you.”

“Lha, how am I, non? Doesn't the one with the keys of the bus you are?” sahut Rizal.

Restu smiled to find Rizal's innocence. “Bye, here's the key. The book is on table no.45. quickly grab there!”

Without delaying any longer, Rizal immediately took the book in question and handed it to me. Since the time had begun at noon, we decided to immediately leave the Wiraatmaja residence and head to Glondong village, where my great-grandfather was located.

On the way, I was busy reading what was written in the book. And finally I can temporarily deduce that the village is dead because the village was once invaded by thousands of blood demons led by a deformed shaman whose face was full of ulcers and pus, ki Bradjamana.

After thirty minutes of walking, we finally reached the border of Witiran village. And as said by Restu, if there are three paths that connect the village of Witiran with other villages.

Tired, we decided to take a break at the patrol post where Feby discovered Mela's whereabouts. And as usual, the patrol post that should be a lot of ojek bases around it, even deserted, uninhabited.

As we were unwinded, suddenly from somewhere outside the border, there appeared a girl who looked just like us, her clothes were the same. I investigated that she was a girl who came from the future anyway, and followed this Test of Faith.

“T—Please me...my group, they... get lost inside the magical village in the middle of that forest!” said Illa panicked. His voice was gnawing, probably due to running. “I m‒please..”

Ella fainted instantly. Agung and I lifted her up and we laid her out at the patrol station.

“Before you act, let me be clear. If this is all a trap to lure us to the village.” said Feby who already understood what I would do. “Therefore, we cannot save the girl's comrades. That's according to me!”

“Iya, darling. We better not care about this girl and get out of here. If he wants to come, please!” As usual, Mela made a suggestion that was contrary to what I thought. “If necessary, we just leave everyone here and we go both, save ourselves!”

“What!?” sahut all. “After what we did to look for you, you are without the slightest sense of sin to leave us all? Wicked you, Mela!”

“I don't care about you all. All I care about is my class. I did this to keep her tau!” answer Mela ketus.

After a long check, Ella finally realized. This time different from the previous one, he thought back to come with us to the next village and left his friends who were lost in the magical village.

“Ah, nothing. It might be too late for you to save them as well. We got lost there already more than ten days!” said Ella who felt flat.

I started to get suspicious about her behavior just now, but because of her wishes, we agreed to ask her to leave without saving her friends.

Since there was something strange here, I kept an eye on Ella up close.
