Misty Soil

On another ground

Early in the morning, four young men prepared to pack their things. The gathering point is at the home of Herman, the only son of the largest donor on the Gajah Mada campus. The mother's screams were heard even though the three friends were waiting outside. The figure of the woman who loved the child alone as if not willing to let go of his disappearance. He intended to release high heels measuring five centi then threw it to his son.

“Herman! Quickly bring back everything you brought back to life!” yelled Aaron ma'am.

Herman's all she had, after her husband died a few months ago. Aaron glared confiscated all the credit cards and cash in his wallet. The young lady was on her waist, glaring at her murkans.

“Herman! One more step you step foot, then I will die!” threaten Aaron.

“Mother, I'm not leaving for fun. College assignments await me to graduate my Bachelor as soon as next year. I promise to contact you immediately after arriving there” said Herman while wiping his hand.

“No, mother's feelings are not calm let you go there. According to the information that you can if in that place is famous for its awesomeness.”

“Mother come on, all my friends are waiting for me outside" Herman said.

With a heavy heart, Aaron's mother allowed it. He simply returned the cash into Herman's wallet. After reinserting all equipment in the trunk of the car. They say goodbye until Aaron's mother's sight no longer sees them.

Suddenly the speed of their car stopped suddenly to see Sandika who was standing in the middle of the road while waving her hand. Initially he did not want to go along with this task because he had resigned to not have a penny. But after getting money from the results of odd jobs, he soon followed his friends to be determined to continue college so that he could soon achieve his goals. Sandika's life is very different from Herman, he struggled for his own expenses because he already has no family or close relatives.

“Hei Sandika, why don't you run fast towards this car?” shout Beben.

“Crazy! You should not stand in the middle of the road like that! Are you tired of living?” arya.

“Sorry I'm late, there are so many affairs that I have to finish” Sandika replied as she got into the car.

The long journey took four hours. Strong musical accompaniment in the midst of fatigue, the atmosphere of trees and beautiful hills make all that a little treatable. Arya was still busy looking at the mobile phone tablet to measure the mileage and travel map and compass directions, Suddenly she frowned.

“Hei gais! Look deh! How to compass here is fickle yes!” arya.

“Ah already, tuh see at the end of the road there is a citizen who walks” pointed Beben.

Herman pulled the car over, opened the windshield and pulled out his head to ask the man. There was a strong wind, various sounds of animals around and the appearance of a strange figure near the tree that was located near the man.

“Excuse me sir. Is the foggy Telaga Village near here?”

The old man just looked. The figure of a sharp look he just shook his head. The other side of the view glanced towards the car. He only shook his head, a face of anger clearly visible with a fierce breath. Meanwhile, Sandika noticed that the man who was with Herman was not human. Sandika closed her eyes saying a short surah and then looked back at the creature.

The man hurriedly left it as if lightning steps disappeared behind the fog that started to surround the surrounding region. How surprised Herman to know that the injured man's back was rotting inside the skin full of writhing maggots. Herman ran into the car slamming the door hard and then shut the glass tightly. In the middle of driving the vehicle, his chaotic mind did not calm down into a thousand languages with his hands still shaking.

“You why Her? Like someone who saw the devil. Did you give clear directions?” ask Beni to investigate.

“Hei Herman why are you quiet! be careful not to drive too fast!“ arya's loud voice shocked her.

Herman had unknowingly driven his vehicle so fast. Driving an unbalanced vehicle in the middle of a slippery road resulted in him slamming the steering wheel to the right until it hit a large tree. Almost their car goes into the abyss if it is not blocked by the trees. The sound of their cries from within, they tried to get out of the car while pressing on the head that was covered in wounds.

“You are not careful! Though I've been nagging reminding like your mother!” arya said glaring.

“True once! I don't want to die yet! I have to marry Siti next year!” snapped Gama.

“Already, now we bring each one and immediately set up a tent before evening” said Sandika.

They walked through the forest, walking for hours but did not see any villages or foggy Lake. Arya pressed her head then stopped with a crouching position. Blood flowed until he was unconscious.

Friends who saw him were very surprised, Sandika tore the tip of her shirt and wrapped the knot shape of the bond pressing the wound on Arya's head. They took Arya forward with angry and panicked steps. There is no land or strategic position to set up a tent.

The sky was overcast, the atmosphere of white mist slowly the clouds let out specks of rainwater. By evening in the wilderness did not discourage Sandika's intention to perform worship. He always carries a prayer mat in his bag, the man raises his head and holds rainwater to fetch water.

Sandika spread out the prayer rug near the slightly lush trees. His friends were waiting for him to worship while looking around. One of the figures in white clothes observed their movements from above the tree. The eyes were too sharp to see Sandika, another figure appeared to see the men and followed the steps of one of them who left the group.

“I kebelet nih” said Beben pressing his stomach.

He crouched the bushes while staring around. Half-dead he tried as fast as he could to finish his tummy-churning affair. From earlier he did not calm down to hear a strange sound and a hot breath that hit his neck. Ben looked for wide leaves and poured mineral water in the bottle he had prepared and then rushed to run. His legs were pulled by a long hoofed hand, he screamed while kicking trying to let go.

“Arghh! Please!” scream Ben.

“Herman, Gama you guys just wait here to look after Arya. Let me see Ben” said Sandika running after finishing worship.

Ben's body feels locked, his left leg hardened in pain can not be moved. Sandika slowly exhaled a short surah of Sandika's legs and then pressed her legs firmly. Slowly the heat mixed with the pain he felt disappeared.

“Try slowly you move your feet” said Sandika.
