Asphalt Edge Empty House

Chapter 25 Invisibility Disorders

Tomy hurriedly parked the car right in the village chief's yard, while Wira rushed to open the trunk to retrieve their equipment, weapons, and supplies.

From the back of the house, Darmanto ran across them, in the heart of the innocent young man was irritated, because Wira and Tomy parked without permission, to the host first.

"Who are you, parking in people's homes, without excuse!"

Wira soon realized that what they did was not polite, he was also directly approached Darmanto to just say hello and introduce himself.

"Sorry before mas, I am Wira, and this is Tomy we both from the police of Surabaya. As for the purpose of our arrival here, actually want to catch up with Siska, my friend who has already come to this village."

"To be exact, he's lost his way into your village."

Wira explained his intention to come to the village while showing a police card to Darmanto. Instantly the look on the young man's face became soft, his lips turned a friendly smile to Wira.

"Oh sir this cop is his friend mbak Siska, he has left for the forest, from half an hour ago. If you want to chase now, maybe you can still meet at the forest boundary."

Darmanto explained the situation to Wira, then without further ado, the young officer asked Darmanto to deliver them to the forest in question.

As per Darmanto's estimation, they reached the forest boundary in time. Siska was standing at the entrance of the jungle, along with two old men. They were mbah Wongso and the village chief who were performing the ritual before entering the forest.

"That's them, police!"

"From here you can catch up with Siska, I can only drive you here."

"Excuse me."

Darmanto immediately turned his back, then left without looking again. The hero shook his head. The attitude of the village youth was felt strange, but Wira did not want to take a headache. They rushed over to Siska to join immediately.

"What is this man doing Sis?"

Tomy asked while whispering in Siska's ear. The young stallion was astonished, with the behavior of mbah Wongso who stood up kamit while closing his eyes.

"Heh Siska do you hear me, what is the old man doing?"

"Sstt.. Quiet...!"

"Don't be noisy, he's Wongso's village elder, sort of the caretaker of this forest."

Siska asks Tomy not to speak loudly while Wongso is reciting a spell. The young man understood immediately, then nodded his head, while putting an index finger on his lips.

"We're going in now, but I remind you all again, to be careful, keep your attitude, thoughts, and emotions."

"They're not willing to accept other creatures, so I remind you not to daydream, and keep the behavior while crossing this forest."

After praying, Wongso recalled a number of restrictions. Men and friends nod their heads, as a sign that they already understand the meaning of abstinence.

Starting to enter the forest, the atmosphere of nature immediately changed completely, the scorching sunlight as if powerless through the thick of towering ancient trees.

Silent, silent, and cold, felt by everyone who was in the forest at that time. Siska immediately embraced the burly arms of the Hero. He began to feel an unusual aura from the middle of the forest. It was as if they were being watched by many pairs of hidden eyes.

It's a lot but it's invisible, that's what everyone feels. Siska recalls her first time out of the forest. The same feeling he felt again.

Wira felt her arms gripped very strongly, because she felt uncomfortable Wira released her arms embrace Siska, then held her.

"Even in this forest is a bit strange, the atmosphere is also unusual, as we are in a different nature."

"From that moment I didn't see a single animal roaming the forest, is this normal?"

Tomy asked to start a conversation, but no one responded. Everyone keeps their own feelings. In the forest they were clearly not alone. There were other beings watching their every move.

In his heart, Tomy did not like being in a forest thick with a mystical aura. There was a trembling sense of trepidation, but he was reluctant to say it.

It was far enough that the small group walked, but the place they were heading to was nowhere to be seen. The hero looks at the watch, but time seems to stop spinning.

"The clock is still spinning normally, but why don't the clock shift, just like the first time we went into the forest?"

The heroes begin to feel there is an awkwardness in their journey. From the corner of the eye the Hero could see the figure of a black shadow, tall large, peering behind a tree. He immediately whispered to Siska to always be alert and read the prayer as he could.

Suddenly mbah Wongso stopped his footsteps, it seemed like nature was giving a sign of his invisible presence.

"Everyone please be alert, concentrate, and don't leave your mind empty. What's more until fear arises, these creatures deliberately terrorize your mentality so that they become stronger."

Mbah Wongso warned, suddenly the weather changed, the wind blew strong, everyone could hear the clattering sound of bells that began to approach, Mbah Wongso said a prayer, while Siska, Tomy, said, and heroes snuggle with each other.

"Life is tiring Siska, you better stay here with grandma, here our house. The place is nice, everything you want will be done soon."

"You just need to put the gun muzzle around the neck and then it's all done, we'll stay here forever."

The voice was similar to her grandmother's, but Siska realized that her grandmother had died a long time ago.

In a hurry, Siska released the hand of the Hero who had been holding him, He immediately stuffed his ear with his index finger, but the sound was like it was in his brain, and did not want to disappear.

"Yyyyyyyyyy.."

Siska screamed hysterically and then collapsed floundering on the ground, the atmosphere instantly became chaotic. Astral disorders increasingly come bertubi terrorize them, Tomy who from the beginning feel uncomfortable, so the more panic.

The emotions of young people are really uncontrolled. Tomy was lured with mounting anger. Out of annoyance he fired into the air, shouting defiantly.

"Door... Door...!"

"Hey Demit, get out you all, face me!"

"Don't just dare to disturb women, if you dare to face Tomy...!"

Tomy shouted out loudly to challenge the forest dwellers. He just kept boasting, shouting like he had lost his mind. A hero who doesn't want anything bad to happen, immediately pulls Tomy's collar.

"Plac.. Plaque...!"

Watch your words Bo**h!"

"Those before us are not human beings who can die with your bullets "to**l...!"

"Look a little, don't make the problem worse..!"

The emotional hero snapped and slapped Tomy in the face very hard. He pushed his men, causing Tomy to fall backward. The village chief quickly pulled Wira's arm while asking her to calm down.

"Already Mr. Wira, do not continue, we better help prayer so that Mbak Siska can be awakened quickly."

The hero took a deep breath several times to let his emotions subside. For the first time the handsome officer got out of control. His eyes glared at Tomy's face.

"Once again you act, I make you the guardian of this forest, understand...!"

Hearing the terrible Vira's swearing, Tomy's guts instantly shrieked, she lowered her head while fingering her red cheek exposed to a slap.

Meanwhile, Wongso poured a bottle of mineral water to Siska who was still unconscious. The old grandfather's mouth was about to recite a prayer, and then the atmosphere of the forest turned into a roar.

The atmosphere of the forest was gloomy suddenly, so brightly lit. Forest animals that from the beginning they did not meet, now tingly with sautan. Mbah Wongso got up from his seat and held a keris belonging to the village ancestors while saying something in Javanese.

"We just want to pass by give way, or the agreement between our ancestors and you will be void."

"Please Wongso, how dare you threaten us."

Suddenly a heavy sound growling tampa form echoed filled the entire forest. Mbah Wongso retreated a few steps, then a large, hairy tall figure stood straddling them.

"Sorry to disturb the peace of Ki Maung, I just want to take them to sebrang, please give way so that we can pass through the forest."

"Well, I'll give you a way, but the boy has to stay."

The big tall creature called ki Maung pointed at Tomy, he wanted the young policeman as a mumbah, but mbah Wongso refused subtly, he did not want any casualties from them.

"I'm sorry for the child's arrogance, Ki Maung, I promise this won't happen again."

Mbah Wongso continued to persuade ki Maung with various offers, so that the forest rulers would succumb, and allow them to cross the forest.

"Look at Maung, let us pass through this forest, and I promise not to interfere again if there are villagers who cross the line."

"Well Wongso, all I hold is your promise, someday if they break, I'll take their souls straight away."

Then Wira, the village head, and Tomy were immediately shown a figure of a lost soul. They stood around with pale faces, blank gazes, and gaping mouths.

The spirit closed its eyes, its body felt stiff. The scene before them was really sad, Men, women, and children, they were all people who were lost.

Now they live forever there being part of that forest. The hereditary Wingit Forest became a grim legend in the village's history.
