Rebellion, A Killer's Little Note

Episode 27's

"Nine lives?!" Ayodya was shocked to hear the explanation from Pakde.

"Yes, Nduk. One of the nurses at the mental hospital told Pakde. Although in reality only eight that he habi*si with his hands directly. The other one, he used the victim's mother who turned out to be the wrong target."

Ayodya smirked, "It turns out that girl is no ordinary girl. It was only fitting that I could feel a dark aura even at a glance."

Tonight the three of them sat together in Ayodya's room upon Pakde's return from the workshop.

"So the girl's confinement in the asylum is as punishment? I'm interested in that girl, sir. If we can pull it to help us, we don't have to worry about how to feed my Master. He'll be much more useful than Joko."

Pakde shook his head, "It will be difficult for Nduk. He was ordered by the court to stay in the hospital for life as punishment. It's gonna be hard to get him out of there."

Ayodya stared blankly at the wall.

"Rather than you think of the girl, you should start looking for a new body Nduk. Amira's body couldn't last much longer due to the red moon ritual yesterday. If left unchecked, you will have trouble" Budhe said.

"I've locked onto my target Budhe, don't worry. Come out, I want to sleep."

Pakde and Budhe nodded and left Ayodya.

***

Budhe and Pakde are busy preparing Joko. The plan, Ayodya will again distribute some boxed rice to mental hospitals.

"The rest separate in a sack, ma'am," said Pakde. "The father will bury him in the small forest just before the hospital."

Budhe nodded in understanding. It took me a whole day to finish this job.

Ayodya was in the ritual room all day. He meditated and met Mbah Kroto and Nyi Anak Mas.

"The weak body will not last longer, Cah Ayu," Mbah Kroto said. "You need to find a new body as soon as possible before the next ritual. If you don't have time, you will perish with that body."

Ayodya nodded in understanding. "I will try Mbah, the longer it is not easy to find a new body. Nor do I understand why this body is so weak compared to any other body I have ever used."

"Be careful Cah Ayu. The next ritual, you have to use a new body. If you perish with that body. We will all perish in the hands of my Lord."

Ayodya nodded in understanding and kowtowed in the dark at the two figures who had long disappeared.

***

"Are you ready for all Pakde, Budhe?"

Ayodya nodded and walked into the car. They're carrying a lot of rice boxes and they're going to the asylum."

***

Ayodya sees a woman coming out of the building where a gi*la girl named Bella is locked up. Curiously, he asks one of the nurses to see Bella.

"I'm sorry, but not just anyone can see the girl" the nurse said politely.

"I just wanted to say hello for a moment. Please ask her if she wants to if I visit her," Ayodya turned to look at the doctor.

Doktee kept pensive for a moment before nodding. With a radiant face, Ayodya waited for the incoming guard doctor to ask Bella.

"His cooking?" Ayodya asked the girl who was sitting on her back.

Bella looked and laughed.

"Is something funny?" ask ayodya.

The girl stopped laughing and looked towards Ayodya with a mocking look. "Let's see, I don't know if the food is good or not. I'm not the one eating."

Ayodya looked at him. "You don't seem to be used to receiving other people's gifts."

"so. I'm not used to receiving people's gifts, but I'm not used to receiving others' kindness to me. If there is no need to go there! You're intruding." Bella says ketus.

With an annoyed face Ayodya turned around, just as she was about to step up, the interlocutor girl said softly.

"I am indeed a kebu*nuh, but I am not kani*bal. From the smell I already know what cooking it is. And I'm getting to know, it turns out you brought him here. Ahaha!"

Ayodya immediately turned around and smiled cynically, "you are really smart, what if you help me? I'm gonna get you out of here."

Bella smiled mockingly, "No, thank you. I'm not interested. But if you need a new victim, I'll give you one special sacrifice. But then don't bother me."

Ayodya laughed, "Well, what do you want? You're not gonna offer anything for nothing, are you?"

"Not really. I already know how the fate of your victims is," Bella glanced at the empty banana leaf where her lunch had run out.

"Just make sure the victim of me has the same fate and ends up on that banana leaf" Bella grinned.

For a while Ayodya felt fear begin to enter her heart. He immediately turned and stepped away from Bella.
