Comploters Not Afraid of Ghosts

Chapter 74: The End of the Ghost Shadow

Dozens of fire engines filled the school grounds. Sound of marine sirens. The lights on top of the extinguishing car glistened. Fire crews are busy coming in and out. Ari, Toha, Wira and Nara settle through

backroad. They tried to take a detour to get to the teacher's room. It was not far from the burning chemical laboratory. The four of them stopped for a moment. Around the chemistry lab, fire crews were busy with long, large hoses. But among the hustle and bustle of those fighting to put out the fire, Ari and his three friends saw some who were pacing there instead of humans. They seem to panic. There was a figure in a nurse's shirt with blood-tinged eyes, then there was a figure walking by, there was also a crouchy skull-faced figure. But Ari and his three friends did not see the ghost of the shadow.

“Hei kids, get out of here!” said one of the firefighters who caught them, ”This is a dangerous area.”

Ari and her three friends ran as if they were going out of school. But as soon as they reached one of the hallways of the classroom, they walked into the door which was a translucent path to the teacher's room. Once in the teacher's room they stopped

just sec. The room is empty. There was no teacher there. Almost all the tables and utensils there were already clean with items. Looks like they've brought all the important stuff. The silent atmosphere became increasingly gripping. But that's not what keeps them from stepping up. Ghost shadow exists

in their minds. Because the smell of carrion is now beginning to smell. Toha, Wira and Nara only know the ghost of Ari's image. But the smell that started to sting made them shudder. Nara was also cold. He started wearing his jacket. While the others were still worried, Ari tried to step her foot. He took the moringa leaves from the bag and opened the plastic. But yet Ari stepped further, from the side sounding steps closer.

“Ngapain you guys are here!” mr. Suman's voice sounded so loud.

Ari and her three friends were shocked. Mr. Suman's figure was near them. His face looks so angry. His eyes glare. His eyes seemed to be coming out. The muscles in his neck and hands seemed so tense. And in Mr. Suman's hand was a baseball bat held tightly. Ari also tried to hide the moringa leaves behind his back.

“We just want to go through Sir..” Ari said quickly.

Ari thought, Mr. Suman right now is not the real Mr. Suman. Something's affecting Mr. Suman. Like Ari had seen his father, just before his father died.

“You unregulated children!” snapped Mr. Suman who began to move the baseball bat in his hand.

“Pak Suman.. Aware Sir,” says Ari spontaneously. Ari saw Mr. Suman like his father at that time. And Ari wanted to remind Mr. Suman to be aware, because at that time he never reminded his father, until his father died. But it seems too late. Mr. Suman's eyes were red. Lips vibrate. And he's already raised his baseball bat.

“You kids don't know they're lucky!” mr. Suman's voice is getting louder,” From my suspension you guys, mendingan me the law using this stick!”

In front of Ari, Mr. Suman was ready to swing his baseball bat. Ari was ready to step down. But from behind came the footsteps of people running closer.

“Pak Suman! Wait!” Mr. Riza's voice sounded from behind.

Mr. Riza is seen walking cautiously towards Mr. Suman.

“Pak Suman... Aware Mr. Suman,” Mr. Riza is near Mr. Suman. He reached out his hand to ask for the baseball bat that was in Mr. Suman.

“Riza! Why are you here!” snapped Mr. Suman while still lifting his baseball bat, ”You should have been out of here!”

“Pak Suman, calm down.. Patience Sir,” Mr. Riza tried to calm Mr. Suman,”I have indeed come out. Now Mr. Suman must come to his senses. Mr. Suman is now in a mess. Conscious Sir..”

But it seems that Mr. Suman did not listen to Mr. Riza's words. The baseball bat in his hand was ready to swing in front of Ari. Mr. Riza swiftly caught Mr. Suman's wrist. Mr. Riza also managed to hold the baseball bat swayed to Ari. Then there was a baseball bat fight between Mr. Riza and Mr. Suman. They push each other to the side and back. But it looks like Mr. Riza is stronger than Mr. Suman. Mr. Suman started to look at. They both fell to the floor. And Mr. Suman's head hit the floor. The baseball bat came loose and rolled. Mr. Riza is trying to get up. While Mr. Suman is still lying.

“Pak Riza!” Ari approached Mr. Riza, followed by his friends.

Ari was so relieved that suddenly Mr. Riza was here. He never thought Mr. Riza would come back.

“So it happens that I passed here,” said Mr. Riza,” I saw there was a fire. I see in the parking lot there is only Nara's car. I guess you guys are still here. Keep me trying to check here.”

Then Mr. Riza checked Mr. Suman's condition.

“Where is Mr Suman Pak?” ask Ari.

“It looks like he fainted,” said Mr. Riza while checking Mr. Suman's neck,”We must quickly take him to the hospital. While we take him out. Later outside many firefighters who will help.”

Toha and Wira try to help Mr. Riza lift Mr. Suman out. They both let Ari inside to continue the mission. Because actually from now on, the four of them increasingly smell the stinging carcass. While inside, Ari and Nara live. Nara began to hold her body because of the cold. Ari and Nara felt a shadowy ghost not far from them. Then Ari stepped deeper into the room. Ari's feeling says the ghost is getting closer.

“Ari! We better wait for the others,” strangled Nara stuck. He was worried because Ari was advancing alone.

Ari just looked at Nara. His views convince Nara to trust him. Then Ari tried to brandish a piece of moringa leaves that he brought. Before long, Ari saw a shadow flashing across the ceiling. Ari stopped stepping. Now he saw on the wall a shadow was moving closer. And the shadow stopped on the wall right in front of Ari. The shadows on the wall form the head, body, feet and hands with long fingers.

“Ari what's wrong?” Nara's voice sounded in the back.

“She's here,” says Ari.

Ari looked back. It wasn't just Nara there. There's Toha, Wira, and Mr. Riza. Also Bang Yudha and his two friends were already there. But Ari just realized, they all seemed to not be able to see what Ari

view now. Now Ari knows, he has to do it himself. Ari was also close to the shadow. Then he poked a leaf of moringa there. Long Ari heard a chuckling sound. Then the shadow began to form a black figure that came out from the wall. The figure drew closer to Ari and the longer it got higher up to the ceiling. Ari tried to hold on to where she stood. Until he felt that figure was already on top of him and encompassed him. Ari felt it was time he had to touch a moringa to the shadow in front of him. But before he did, Ari felt that darkness had surrounded him. He could see nothing but darkness. And for a long time Ari found it difficult to breathe. Lastly, Ari only heard a shrill voice slashing. After that Ari did not remember anything else.

Ari's eyes slowly opened. His sight is still blurred. Samar Ari saw Mr. Riza beside him massaging his neck. After gradually recovering, Ari sees Toha, Wira and Nara surrounding him. Their faces looked worried.

“What shadow ghost?” ari asked in a weak voice.

“Quiet Ri, you succeeded,” said Nara,”The ghost has been hit by moringa leaves.”

“Iya Ri, once hit by moringa leaves, we can all see him,” added Toha,”We see the figure of the item but small and midget. He was drawn with Bang Yudha and his friends. Now they're rattling the others”

Ari tried to turn left right, he saw Bang Yudha and two friends were busy pacing around with their hands. But when Bang Yudha and two of his friends were in the principal's room, they seemed to have been performing the ritual for a long time. When they finished, they told Mr. Riza that their school was now clean. They also say goodbye to Mr. Riza. Ari and the others also thanked Bang Yudha and his two friends. Especially Nara, she will not forget the kindness of Bang Yudha. And Ari did not forget to thank Mr. Riza.

“I hope Mr. Riza can come back here again,” Ari said.

“I also want it so Ri,” said Mr. Riza,” But we will see later.”

Outside, firefighters were not as busy as before. The fire in the chemical lab was extinguished. Remnants of the ruins that need to be cleaned up. Ari and her friends walked past them as usual. Toha

“Ra, that time in the principal's room, I was just as suspicious as there was something in the room. The aura is very ugly,” said Bang Yudha.

“Emang why Bang Yudha?” ask Nara curiously. Ari also listened.

“Now I know why many delicate creatures always want to come and stay in your school,” said Bang Yudha.

“Why does Bang?” ask Nara and Ari at the same time.

“There was something planted under that room,” replied Bang Yudha.

“Apaan tuh Bang,” asked Ari spontaneously.

“I don't know. It must have created a negative aura. And that's what the subtle-bodies are looking for. They are so comfortable here.”

Ari is just a mangosteen. While Nara looks amazed at the ability of Bang Yudha. Then Bang Yudha said goodbye to Ari and Nara. Earlier, Bang Yuda told Nara, if she needs her help again, Nara can call her directly.

“Ra, If there is a problem, do not hesitate to call me yes,” said Bang Yudha.

“Definitely Bang,” says Nara enthusiastically.

Then Bang Yudha left them both. Ari and Nara get into the car. But while in the car, Nara long time did not turn on his car. It seems like there's something he's thinking about.

“What's Ra?” ask Ari.

“Gue new inget Ri,” said Nara,” My mother used to tell me, if not wrong, papa you ever want to be the principal?”

“Iya Ra.”

“Well, my mother said, there are other candidates who want to be the principal as well. Said there was a black magic kayak game issue.”

Ari also looked at the old Nara, until Nara became afraid of being looked at by Ari like that.

“Truly lo Ra?” ari asked with a super serious face.

“Iya so deh,” said Nara is uncertain,”Mama heck ever story like that. I wasn't too serious about it.”

“Ra, can you ask for help, ask your mama again?”

“Ok, I asked ya Ri.”

Then Nara runs her car out of the parking lot. Nara's car came out the gate with several fire engines.

Ari couldn't sleep at night. He kept thinking about Nara's words earlier this afternoon in the car. She hoped Nara would really ask her mother. Then there's a call from Tata. Ari quickly lifted him up.

“Halo Ta, how are you, all right,” Ari directly asked.

“Iya Ri, I'm fine,”tata Tata said on Ari's phone,” You How Ri?”

“Gue is fine. Mama you're leaving huh Ta?”

“Yes, my mom is leaving, so I'm calling you. Uh, how was that at Ri's school?”

Then Ari recounted all the events of the afternoon at the school in detail to Tata.

“Thank God it can finally be done yes Ri.”

“Iya Ta's. Hopefully our next school is safe anyway.”.

“Iya hopefully Ri. So we can meet again in the usual place.”.

“But I'm not sure anyway Ta..”

“Emang why Ri?”

Ari also told what Bang Yudha said about something planted in the principal's room. Then Ari also told him about Nara's words about the change of principal and the black magic issue.

“Truly Ri?”

“Ndon't know either Ta. I'm waiting for news from Nara..”

“Ya already Ri, you just wait for news from Nara, later do not forget the story to me everything yes.”

“Still support me yes Ta..”

“We have agreed to support each other right Ri..”

“Iya Ta's. We will support each other. Forever.”.

“Iya Ri's. Forever..”
