Gondo Flower

Chapter 17: Storage room

Five people ducked into hiding from whatever was behind the door, holding each other's breath that had been disordered. The sound of footsteps drew closer, Along the dark hallway in front of the storage room a woman in red walked staggered by the strands of her hair that touched the floor.

The woman walked closer, Gondo fireworks sayup heard in tandem with the sound of gamelan surrounding the building.

Lebet jagat lembut...Skill sedoyo..

Ratri..

The originally silent night became crowded will be a party, a party from the next realm that has no limits anymore with the mortal world.

Thousands of black shadows flashed in the night sky covering the entire building with eternal darkness, The sound of night animals no longer dared to disturb the sacred rituals of the devotees.

Alingga closed her eyes to sense the approaching danger, she knew the black aura was so strong that she could not use her abilities. Everyone was silent in response to the extremely gripping atmosphere, Five people lowered their heads next to each other grasping their fears.

Wait for.

Did not enter the room only 4 people, Syarif swallowed saliva realizing the person next to him was not one of his three friends. He was so calm that there was not the slightest sound of breath, Sharif did not dare to look, he knew that the one next to him might be part of this feast.

Syarif gripped Alingga's arm firmly, his mouth locked with sweat already pouring profusely, his heart pounding almost regardless of his place.

Alingga actually knew, but he could not do much about the headless creature next to Sharif. The creature had no intention of intruding, he was merely conveying the message of their Master's arrival.

That is why Alingga did not intend to tease, but in contrast to Syarif he was like a toddler who whined asking for sugar, begging Alingga to help get rid of the creature from his side.

Alingga took out a cantile flower from his pocket, out of nowhere it came he hinted that Sharif would give the flower to a headless creature. Sharif according to glancing slightly stuck out his hand slowly, a little he saw a black hand full of ulcers grabbing the flowers on his palm.

The hand was still reluctant to go, spontaneously gripping the wrist of Sharif which made Sharif forced to turn his head.

Pranks!!

Suddenly one of the glass box boxes on the wall of the room fell, removing the contents that now roll like a ball down Sharif's feet, the head grinned to show off his victory. His eyeballs swirled around from the rotten face that was already formless, slowly his mouth opened giving off a thick yellow liquid mixed with white.

As if in a lightning strike he was surprised by what he saw, The flow of electricity stung in the veins, Sharif's vision darkened and then collapsed losing consciousness.

The body of Sharif befalling Alingga next to him, Alingga shake the body sharif many times but at least there is no response.

"Bah iki seneng tenan fainted, nambahin wae load!" (This kid likes fainting times, add loads!) moaning Alingga.

Alingga looked at the yanto, whispering to the two of them.

"Samplean weroh dalan ne right? Gowo nen syarif metu soko. The crew e dewe wes wrong nggon, but ileng ojo once once noleh lek enek seng nyeluk i, sopo wae even my voice ojo wani wani ne noleh!" (You know the way out, right? Get Sharif out of here. We've been misplaced, but remember never to call, Who even I never dare to!)

"There's business to be done!"alingga.

Doni helped Sharif raise to the back of the Yanto mas, after a fitting sense they immediately went through the wooden door and disappeared in Alingga's view.

Doni led in front, leading the two of them through a dark passageway.The originally not too long passageway now looks like tens of kilometers that have no end, but, mas Yanto gasped for breath since it was still not out of this building, not to mention he had to hold the weight on his back.

The power is almost exhausted, but the hallway is like reluctant to let them off just like that, the longer the more they get around their guts.

How could he ignore his mother, His heart was so sick to hear the heart-wrenching voice. But he still remembered the message of Alingga, anyone do not listen to his speech.

"Lee.. "

The voice was still reluctant to leave, mas Yanto tried to speed up his footsteps, but unfortunately a skinny hand gripped his ankle, making his steps increasingly heavy.

He paused for a moment to pull hard on his right leg, he managed to escape but the hand was still stuck on his leg. He did not care about it, he immediately ran after doni who was a little far away.

"Gunnyboy!!" his curse

Of course it's not fun to find his ankles growing hands.

Doni was curious why mas Yanto was so noisy behind, he wanted to turn his head but was stopped by mas yanto.

"Wes straight wae don't have to mbok delok!" (You don't have to look straight!) mas yanto warned Doni.

Finally after a while of being trapped they arrived at the hall, but that did not mean the danger was over. They had to get out immediately before the figure in the corner of the room realized their existence, Mas Yanto immediately ran after Doni who had already walked out of the door.

...***...

Alingga stood up after they left, He walked in the direction of the sound of the chattering slowly, Passing through the hallway which is now completely dark.

He saw a dim light at the end of the hall, looking like a speck of hope in despair. Alingga quickened her pace, ignoring every gaze from the wooden wall.

Arriving in front of a room, he saw the light coming from this room. Alingga pushed slowly the wooden door, a creaking sound accompanied the canticle that had echoed throughout the building.

Alingga stared at the room with a lot of curtains, there was also a large couch in the middle of the room. Alingga looked at the mirror next to the table, she focused her mind but had not yet realized a thin cloth was tightly wrapped around her neck.

Alingga was out of breath, she glanced at the mirror, behind her a woman with red looks at her angrily with a very pale face.

"Official" his murmur withered.

Alingga tried to remove the cloth that strangled his neck, he several times said a prayer for the help of the creator.

Laughter boomed from the woman who was now half-floating.

"Look of the window!!" (So brave little boy!) lasmi was angry.

"Your science mung segaller arep nantangin zinc ndueni jagat lemak!" (Your science is only in line to challenge those who rule the soft World)

Alingga almost reached the limit, but he still chanted the prayer he learned while studying with mbah ladi. The woman grew increasingly angry, she ordered Alingga to stop, but the slightest Alingga did not waver.

"truly.. You guys are as mortal as us, there are limits that should not be passed, go back!!" alingga said while enduring the pain.

"Ora ono seng iso close the gate segoro!" (No one can close the gate of segoro!) said the creature arrogantly.
