HELGA ANABELLE SERIES: Soul
SCENE 13: People who prefer to be alone




-- Christian POV'S on ---


-----------------------------------------


   My name is Christian, a shadow element controller. For some reason, I live in the bookstore where Sennin and a fellow live. This store, from the front like a bookstore in general, but actually not.


   Like Lurge. He is usually the one who serves the guests in the shop. But actually he's the escort doll made by Kasumi's grandmother, the owner of this bookstore.


   With occultism, Kasumi's grandmother gathered tiny spirits in the air that nourished mountains, rivers, plants, flowers, insects, and the like. Mix all that and put it together in an urn. Then it becomes a large spirit. It is incorporated in dolls and given the ability to move. He's a living doll. Little spirits have neither consciousness nor heart. He moved with orders.


   These guys are Sennin from China! People who live eternally because they do a lot of special exercises. They use magical powers like witches in fairy tales. Moreover, all the criminals of the supernatural world who have committed sins, including me. To atone for their sins, they came from China to Indonesia and did secret work.


   Today the air is so humid, it looks like it will be cold rain.

   "Helga! The Headmaster said, Citra lives in your house, huh?" Ask Sherlly as soon as I get into class. I let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, I arrived at school late in time. Many of my classmates have come, including him. The enemy who somehow became my partner.


   "Yahh, that's how~ he's so sticky with me, anyway. He forbade me to go to school. But since I escaped through the window of the room, that's why I was able to come to school!" I answered while glancing at Christian who was silent in his seat.


   He...do you have no friends, huh? I've never seen Chris talk to anyone in this class. I secretly reached into my skirt pocket. The stealth sealing amulet paper that was then given by Christian... The controller, Sennin, or demon, is said to be all unbelieving.


   Grup


   "Hey, you guys, move aside, I can't get through!" Said a girl who had just entered the classroom. Basic, this wide road he even said can not pass. Did he never hear the saying not one way to Rome, huh?


   "Ah, Chintya, sorry!" Sherlly said in an unkind tone. My best friend is good to anyone.


   "Whispering so, disturbing tofu!" The boy named Chintya passed by arrogantly. Unintentionally, he hummed the ball until it fell to kiss the floor.


   "Well, are you okay, Chintya?" Sherlly asked who immediately walked over to Chintya.


   "Ng.it's okay." Answer Chintya ketus.


   "Are you okay?" The boys who saw Chintya fall asked the same thing.


   "Definitely you guys, who play ball in class?" Accuse Chintya as good as he is. The kids didn't know why there was a ball in the classroom. "You guys, just goofy!"


   Sherlly looked at Chintya who was indignantly indistinct, "Chintya is serious, your face is scarred by earrings! I'll get you a P3K box, okay?"


   "No need, don't be pretentious to care about me!" Reject Chintya raw.


   "But..."


   "I told you not to care about me, right?!" Chintya pushed Sherlly's body violently. It was as if he was doing that to my best friend!


   "Let it go, Sherlly, the boy said it wasn't necessary, right?" I told the stubborn Sherlly to treat Chintya's wounds.


   "It can't be like that!" Sherlly said while still treating Chintya's wounds, "Chintya's a rich boy, huh? Your earrings are so good. But it's dangerous to go to school, you know!"


   Whether what the devil's reception, the boy was even angry is unclear. "Whisper! It has nothing to do with my family, right? What the hell else, the pompous meddle so? It must be so popular! Like a fool!"


   "I didn't do it to be popular!"Sherlly was upset, "it's just because she's worried about you!"


   Shortly after, the teacher arrived. The boy is always the same as anyone. The boy was the daughter of the director of a large trading company. He said he was rarely with his parents because they were busy.


   It seemed like such an old man was giving away expensive things. But after that, abandon him. He used to run like that everywhere. Always alone. Just like Chris.


   During the break, it rains very heavily. We all ate in class.


   "Kyaa, rain!"


   "Well, I forgot to bring an umbrella!"


   "Helga, this boiled asparagus is not tasty, is it?" Sherlly asked as she pointed at the bowl of asparagus that I did not touch. I didn't answer.


   "Lho, what's wrong with you, Helga?"


   "Helga stop moving!"


   "...he's sleeping!"


   Uh, you know what? He said if it rains like this, monsters will appear.


   If you walk alone, he says a voice says, "want me to lend you an umbrella? Let it not get wet" then, if you say you want to sound it, he said there will be a dark one from behind the alley that appears above you, and take you away somewhere quickly.

-------------------------------------


   When I got home from school, it was still raining heavily. Children who forget to carry umbrellas are picked up by their families. Sherlly has also been picked up by her mother. Leaving Helga who was still in the school yard.


   Not far from where he was, Helga could see Chintya in the shade. No umbrellas, and no one to pick up. He must have been forgotten by his parents again. During school there, Helga never saw Chintya being picked up by her parents.


   Seeing Chintya who never picked up her parents, somehow Helga became reminded of Mama and her father who went abroad. Even so, he still had Priatna guarding him wholeheartedly.


   What moved Helga's heart, the girl approached Chintya and handed her an umbrella. "I thought you were standing cold like this." Although Helga had guessed that her good intentions would be rejected by Chintya, what was wrong with offering it? Chintya is often angry, so many are reluctant to give her help.


   "Si...who wants to wear your umbrella? Someone is coming to pick me up soon! Hurry home!" Reject Chintya.


   "Don't be stubborn, just take it!"


   "Say I'll have someone pick me up soon! Just a little late!" Chintya snatched Helga's umbrella.


   "Why do you want to stay alone?" Ask Helga.


   Chintya who did not like Helga asked like that directly stepped on Helga's umbrella until it was broken, "Whispering! Being alone is enough for me!" He said he ran away from Helga.


   Christian who appeared out of nowhere picked up Helga's broken umbrella, "I also agree with Chintya. I won't ask about your business. It's just, I wonder why you and your best friend like to interfere with other people's affairs. Sherlly I can understand because he's a good boy, but if you're there too..."


   "I don't want to be lonely anymore, Chris." Helga said unknowingly, "My parents have been living abroad for a long time. But I am grateful that at least there is still a big brother who wants to pay attention to me. Being alone is painful. I don't want to feel it anymore!"


   "That's for the weak!"


   "Then, how strong are you?"


   "I think I'm as strong as a mountain. I'm the controller. You too, right?"


   "Then why don't you act alone?"


   "When you can seal the demon yourself, why even ask for my help?" Ask Helga.


   "Listen yes, let me tell you. Can you bear to repay a hundred million loan with a thousand-one-pay loan? Sealing one by one countless demons, either took time until when. That's why I don't really intend to do it! Youunderstand?"


   "People who've made the mistake of freeing the demons talk what, anyway?"


   Christian was stunned as Helga said that. He can't say anything. Because, it is his fault that has caused the demons to be free.


   Suddenly, Helga's left hand ached. The girl grimaced in pain.


   "There's a demon near here, let's go there!" Take Helga. Both of them immediately rushed away.


   Meanwhile, Chintya who was sheltering near the alley shivered in the cold with clothes that were soaking wet. He waited an hour but no one came to pick him up. Suddenly, the girl was startled by a voice that came from nowhere.


   "Cold, will I lend you an umbrella?"


   Chintya turned to her right and left to look for the source of the sound. There was no one but him there. The mysterious voice was heard again.


   "Wet stuff like that. Can I lend you an umbrella?" Simultaneously, an umbrella sprung up from behind the alley. "Boot shoes are also available. You don't have to be cold anymore..."


   For some reason, Chintya remembers rejecting the umbrella that Helga lent her. Because of that, he became stuck in the middle of heavy rain like this. The girl thought for a moment, it would not hurt if she received the umbrella, right?


   "Please, lend!" He said as he walked to get the umbrella. However, he had not yet reached for the umbrella, a hand filled with fur clasping tightly to his hand.

   When I arrived at the end of the alley, I was shocked when I saw the demon who was carrying Chintya. The girl who was my classmate and Chris was so scared.


   "Do you want to lend me an umbrella? You don't need to get wet." Said the demon. He sniffed at Chintya's body, "smelling the smell of a lonely man . I like this smell. It's cold, I'll take you away!" After saying so, the demon immediately took Chintya away.


   "PLEASE!" Chintya Shouts. I fell when the demon hit me. Not only that, the demon also damaged some cars that he made a foothold to jump and dart away.


   "It's a demon called Kakuen. He often kidnaps people. Also called monkey monster or horse monster. He crossed his age limit and became a giant. It looks like it will take quite a while to seal it. So no intention." Clearly Christian, "he took the form of an ape and had white ears. Walk bowing and running like a human."


   Chris crouched down near me who was grimacing in pain. "You go home, get hurt. Girls like you don't deserve to do such a dangerous task!"


   From his tone, I could hear that Chris seemed to be worried about me. But actually I don't have time to think like that, anyway.


   "Even so, I'll still go!" I said with eyes radiating seriousness. "You didn't listen to the boy's voice for help? He's our classmate, Christian Samuel!"


   Again I saw Chris' stunned face. Is there something wrong with my words? If you have one, write it in the comments field.


   "While you're determined like that, you don't know where to go, do you?" A good guess from a Chris who was on target. I don't really know where to go. If I follow my instincts, I may get lost.


   Chris moved his shadow power to a car near us. The car that was originally white became black because of the action. "Ride up!" His order.


   Although I hesitated, I got into the car, I knew what Chris was thinking. It will attract attention if we fly. But the problem is, can Chris drive?


   I haven't had the chance to ask that, Chris has driven the car at high speed. I could only close my eyes while the guy was still increasing the speed of the car.


   People want me to die together, right? He is intent on being a racer.

   Chintya tears up as the demon continues to take her away somewhere. At times like this, he began to think that being alone was not the right choice. His consciousness slowly began to diminish. The girl hoped that someone would save her. He heard the voice of someone calling his name.


   "Thanks!"


   He was shocked when he saw Helga and Christian trying to save himself.


   "I can't just let you go alone!" Shouted Helga. Chintya's consciousness was thinning until she was unconscious.


   "Who are you? Wanna interrupt?" Asked the demon in a tone full of dislike.


   "We're the controllers assigned to seal you!?" Chris answered with a chin.


   "Surge there!" The monster attacks the car being driven by Helga and Chris.


   Chris who did not accept being attacked just like that directly used the power of his strength to block the demon's neck and punch it.


   The demon was complaining of pain. "Look, my shadow fist feels right?"  Chris asked arrogantly.


   "Wait for Chris, Chintya's still in danger!"


   "Huh?" Christian does not understand why Helga even worried about classmates who are not familiar with them. They could just let the boy die. They have nothing to lose. The important thing is that the demon succeeded in sealing them.


   "I will set the boy free. So you'll stop this thing!" Helga's Order.


   "Controller? This kid I'm not just gonna give up. This kid is mine!"


   Chris hit the demon again. But successfully avoided. Finally there was a fistfight between Chris and the demon.


   "Where is this demon actually taking him?" Ask Helga.


   "Whisper Helga!" Chris warned, "the darkness that lies at the bottom of the forest. It was a region that light could not enter at all. A connecting hole that doesn't look anything and doesn't feel anything. Behind it must be hell. He won't be able to come back!"


   "Why?"


   "I won't hear your words anymore. You just need to help me to attack this demon. I'm sick of it!"


   Being alone is enough for me...


   I'd rather be alone...


   Thinking of the words Chintya and Chris who prefer to be alone, Helga instead gets the urge to jump in and free the still unconscious Chintya. The demon hit Chris.


   "He's faster, but why is this...? It should be done! I'm a controller that surpasses humans!" Inner Chris. "I've always done it myself!" Said fiery.


   "If you're alone, the rain can't stand it!" Helga said suddenly, "because there are umbrellas and coats, we are not rained. Umbrellas can be compared to the warmth of those around us. Don't you feel the warmth of the people around you?!"


   "Don't listen to the girl's words!" Inner Chris. With great effort, Helga finally managed to attach the invading talisman. Shit, if there's no weapon he can't attack.


   "The fire dragon sword! Come here!" Shouted Helga. Miraculously, a large bird flew near Helga and dropped the fire dragon sword. Then just leave.


   Helga immediately opened the fire dragon sword sheath and cut off the demon's hand. There is nothing that the sword of the magical world cannot cut. Chintya's body almost fell to kiss the ground, fortunately Chris managed to catch her.


   Chris' hand was suddenly held by the demon, "what are you doing? Release, basic!"


   "If I can't bring the child, you're the victim. There's a very pungent smell of loneliness from you!" Chris was stunned as the demon said such a thing to him.


   "What's up, Chris?" Helga's question reawakens Chris. The boy thrashed and freed himself. "Let go! Release him! Shit!" Chris was about to attack the demon, but it was free. He had used spirit power in battle before. He cannot win with his power. If this continues, Chris could be carried into the darkness.


   "I prefer myself!" The words were in Chris' ear. How humiliating. Chris is like this...


   Helga drew her sword again and again, "Chris, now! The attack talisman I've already pinned! Quickly finish him!"


   "Ugh, this can't come off!"


   "He'll take me too! The one who doesn't like it the most is lonely!" Demon words.


   "Christian is not alone, you monster!"


   The deg! Chris' heart skipped a beat as Helga said that. The boy exerted all his strength to break away from the clutches of the demon. Succeeds. Helga slashed the demon many times. Chris immediately sealed the demon in the incantation paper that Helga had affixed. Finally finished too.


    If you do not want to be alone, open the door of your heart. Let others fill the emptiness in your heart and understand you. If you still don't want to give your heart to others, it could be your kidney that they ask for. That's fine, five billion.
