Fitted Forces

Rima pushed Zein until it stuck to the tree trunk. Then advanced and covered Zein with his body.

Zein held her breath as Calvin walked over and stopped a few steps ahead of them.

Rima suddenly took a step forward, revealing his sinister true figure.

Calvin gasped, his eyes widening when he recognized the creature in front of him.

His hands moved to form a fence around his body while taking a few steps back.

"Don't go there" whispered Zein. Her hand moved pulling the back of Rima's dress dangling to the ground.

Rima just kept silent and kept looking at Calvin's movements.

Zein put up his magical fence again. He was prepared for any event that might take place. In his heart he tried to call Satya and another name. His teacher.

***

Satya suddenly woke up. He felt like someone was calling his name repeatedly.

His eyes glanced at Chandra, his cousin still asleep.

Satya rushed up from the bed when she heard the call back. He immediately walked over and opened the door. Swinging footsteps towards Zein's room.

"Don't you?" call him while knocking on the door. However, Zein did not reply at all.

Satya was very pussy, Zein was the fastest person awake. His sensitive ears can still hear sounds when he is not yet sound asleep. So a slow knock on the door would usually be heard and Zein would open the door immediately.

A few minutes waiting for Satya finally moved to knock Triska's room. The beautiful woman immediately opened the door after peeking through the window.

"Teh, bang Zein called me," Satya explained when she saw Triska about to ask.

"Call?" ask Triska confusedly.

"Through the mind, Tea," said Satya.

"Huh? How can? Is my brother sleeping?"

"We'll take it, Tea. Feeling me, my brother's friend is somewhere. Not in his room."

Triska nodded and grabbed the key hanging on the door. Zein only asks for the room key one piece, while Triska still keeps the backup.

"Abang once said, someday I'll need this key. Turns out this is the point," Triska said as she opened Zein's room door.

They rushed in and saw Zein sleeping in a strange position. Sweat all over his body. The eyelids move quickly. Likewise with the head and hands.

Satya immediately understood what was going on. He sat to the right of Zein and placed his right hand on the white man's chest. Trying to connect the inner eye to find Zein's location.

"Where?" triska asked with a very pale face. He was afraid that anything would happen to the man he loved.

"Not yet, Tea. Could you please wake up Chandra and Ary? Or everything is awake," Satya pinta.

Triska nodded and went down the bed. He ran out of the room and banged on the doors of all the rooms in a panic.

***

Tasya who was sleeping suddenly seemed to be pulled by someone. He struggled to survive but eventually he relented and followed the person's orders.

When they arrived in the backyard, Calvin appeared to be dealing with a very familiar ghost figure.

Rima expends all her abilities to banish Calvin and protect a man behind him.

"Would his abilities hurt Calvin?"

"could. Because Calvin's inner energy is still far from that woman. As well, the man behind the woman, his strength was also great. The strength of the two of them when combined, can make your magical fence destroyed," explained the Grandmother.

"Then I have to go there" Tasya said.

"Don't! Dangerous for your son."

"How serious? I can't let Calvin face them alone."

"Wait here!" the Grandma's orders.

The old woman came forward to stand to the left of Calvin who was flabbergasted when she saw him.

Seeing a creature helping the man with the birthmark, Zein moved forward. But his movements stopped when a man suddenly burst forth through his tribe.

"Sit's right there!" the man's orders were none other than his teacher.

Zein's teacher, Mahmud, stood to the right of Rima. He looked at the old woman across the street. Then looked at Rima who was also looking at him.

"Go, Son. Return Zein to his body. Let the father face them" the old man told Rima.

Rima's sinister figure slowly changed back. "But they're both, sir. While the Father is alone," denied Rima.

"Silent. Father can face them. Soon someone will come here too. Go!" the orders of Mr Mahmud.

Rima stood still for a while, before finally turning towards Zein. He was stunned when he saw that an old man was already next to Zein.

The old man nodded at Rima. He patted Zein's shoulder which instantly lowered the body and greeted him with respect.

"You go back, Zein. Let us take care of them" said the old man, none other than Zein's grandfather. The first person in his family to deepen the knowledge of kebatinan, and descend upon all male descendants directly from him.

"But, Cake. It's my business. Let me finish it," Zein argued.

"You must stay protected. Don't let their identities be known, Zein. Because later you and your friends will solve this in the human world," explained the Grandfather.

Zein and Rima looked at each other. They just kept quiet and watched as the man stood side by side with his teacher Zein.

"Kumaha?" ivan asked Satya and Ary who were holding Zein's chest.

"I'm still looking" replied Satya. He turned to look at Ary and said, "I'm going there. Remember, keep reading. Don't stop."

"Chan, come here!" call Satya. He also threw himself next to Zein. His hands are crossed in the chest.

"Read the prayer I taught you that day, Chan. Don't disconnect. If I pull your hand, you pull it too, yeah!" satya's orders got Chandra's nod.

Satya pulled Chandra's right hand and held it tightly. He closed his eyes and read the prayer in his heart.

Slowly his tribe floated up and went looking for Zein. While the other boarding friends sat waiting with anxious faces.

"You help with the wirid," said Ary while looking at his friends.

Ary refocused on reciting the prayer with his right hand still on Zein's chest. Same with Chandra. He continued to watch his cousin's face begin to sweat while continuing to pray inwardly.

Triska approached and sat to the right of Ary. Tia sits to the left of Chandra.

The women began to wipe the sweat from the bodies of the two men who were going wandering. Sometimes they exchanged glances while continuing to read the prayer without pause.
