Misty Soil

Misty Soil
The ghost spirit of Murga




You may say I am a darkness swallowing the happiness of a quiet soul. Perhaps after you return my gaze this bad day will come disturbing. But not after meeting a different figure from you, Sandika.


...---Murga--...


A ghostly figure in white clothes gnawed at the wet long hair after he washed it at his favorite lake. Under the dim moonlight of this long night, Murga herded the devil's fingernails back into her nest. He thought of the figure of the man, scouting back where the man he had met was in the forest.


“Who are you, the man I'm thinking of?” murga's voice whispered in the wind in the air.


Long night for the five sleeping young men on mats. The elephant mosquitoes perched on their skin and kicked each other until Sandika decided to move to the middle room. Throughout the night they heard various strange sounds from outside, especially the shrill sounds of kuntilanak in the afterglow of the humble wolf's howl.


“Ben, I can't sleep! So much for that sound!” whisper Herman.


“Loh where is Sandika?” ask Gama.


While Arya was asleep after being given a drink of potions and drugs on the wound on her head from the fatma altar. Gama looking for Sandika who is laying down the body like a daydreaming person. He waved in front of her, seeing Gama who was interfering with her daydreaming it made Sandika move to sit down with a long sigh.


“Why did you move here?” ask Gama.


“I can't sleep. You started kicking me”, said Sandika.


“I'm sorry San, especially my behavior that left you at the edge of the forest. I honestly don't feel right here. Look, there's no signal in this place. Siti will definitely get angry and decide on ku” Gama said bending her face.


“Not been thought of. I always pray for you to be with Siti immediately. If you want tomorrow I will ask Mbah Baron to find a bus to take you home” said Sandika.


“No, Herman will definitely kill me. All the costs of this trip and task until it was finished was he who bore it. By the way I wonder why fireflies are such as helping us.”


“I think so too. It might just be called a lucky” replied Sandika.


The two of them chatted to sleep, slowly sluggish Sandika opened her eyes listening to the sound of prayer alarm on her phone screen. He walked towards the well behind the house. From one of the trees came the sound of branches falling with the sound of crows circling him.


Highlight Rambe's red eyes lurked, she gave a sign of Sandika's body scent through the demon beast. Murga knows what Rambe did. After Rambe flew away then he rained Sandika's body with the ruins of twigs and leaves. The supernatural disorder felt by Sandika made him hampered carrying out worship. He had to clean himself and go back to fetching water.


Dawn invites soul encouragement from tired last night, cool air in the village that is still beautiful and free from air pollution. Sandika and her friends do sports in front of the house with smiles and jokes. But, instantly the atmosphere changed when Bondan came to bring some residents to the house of Mbah. Seeming to have his nose in bandages, Herman also prepared the energy back to beat him up if the rude man returned looking for trouble.


“Mbah Baron, they should we expel from this village!” shouted Bondan.


“True mbah, drive them!” shouted the citizens.


Herman took a step forward, he was already preparing to teach the provocateur man a lesson. But Sandika held him back with a look of disapproval. Mbah Fatma came out while carrying a spatula, he lifted the object up and glared at Bondan.


“Have stopped! They will be in this village for a while and don't bother these kids or I will give you the calculation!” fatma.


“But Mbah! Their arrival will definitely cause chaos!” bondan.


...----------------...


Victory succeeded in taking the heart of the owner of the house and the holder of control over the village. Sandika and her four friends head to Telaga. Cold air, around the lake in a white fog blanketed with the light of the morning sun. Herman paused the intention to swim there, pulling back his buoy and sunglasses. Unlike the Beben who had plunged freely into the water.


She shouted for help, Sandika hurriedly jumped to help grab her hand. Gama also came in to help. But it turned out that it was just a joke made by Beben so that his friends enjoyed the very cold water in that place.


“Ahahah! You finally believe I'm going to drown!” exclamation Beben.


“Huh basic you!” snapped Gama hit him.


Under the water, the ghosts waiting for the misty Lake saw their movements. One of them waited for blood to spill for them to be snatched and made a collection of piles of skull bones in the water base. As they felt the water getting colder, one by one they completed the bath.


“Swimming in this Lake is like bathing in a snow ice chunk!” said Beben shivering dry his body.


“Aren't you the one with the crazy idea?” snapped Herman.


“Hey you guys don't take it! We have to keep our attitude and words in this place. I don't want to if we get into trouble” said Sandika.


“Are you going to call it Ghost or Satan?“ asked Gama to look at him.


“Yes, we can't deny it. Every region must have a waiter, I hope we come and go home safely.”


From behind the trees at the end of the road to Telaga, Bondan and two others noticed them. The small steps of the Baron stealing one of their bags ran over laughing. Herman's red backpack. Like getting a treasure, Bondan and his friends are stunned to see the contents inside.


“Very much money!” kiki smiled.


“Quick remove all valuables and throw away the bag!” bondan's orders.


They split the loot evenly and then returned to Telaga intending to take another bag. But when they reached , there was no appearance of the entourage there. From behind, Herman kicked Bondan's leg. He folded both hands with an angry face throw at him.


“Hei Baron what are you doing here? Did you steal my bag?” ask Herman.


“Damn it! You've dared to touch and accuse me of being a non-no.


Guys, kick him!” bondan's orders.


Herman is attacked by Kiki and Man, they carry sharp weapons so Sandika and her other friends are overwhelmed to help him. Herman's stomach was pierced by a knife and he slipped into the lake. The sound of a terrible scream was shrill in the air, Bondan and his two friends immediately ran in fear.
