Survival: Dark, Brutal, Gripping

No, that's not what was expected

Johanpun woke up, and found the bonfire that had been extinguished suddenly re-lit, as before. Instantly the ambient air was sultry for him, although he slept without a blanket and even just slept in the emergency bivouac. And even more surprising is the feathers Iuduknya stand, whereas before he was brave and did not feel it since his decision to make a bivouac. Then, in his mind he wondered, what was with him.

" It's impossible if I'm sick, I feel healthy, and eating still feels good, but why is my back so heavy, stiff neck hard to move." he said.

Over time the curiosity was increasingly nurturing, until finally Johan decided to go out, looking for fresh air. For a moment he enjoyed the cold air that night, when he turned to look at 00.13 o'clock or 12 o'clock 13 minutes at night. The shadow of fear in his mind.

" Well why I woke up at this hour, it's like the horror movies I've seen with my brother." he murmured.

From a distance came the sound of footsteps that seemed to be walking on grass and bushes. Johan doubted that it was a person, because he had seen for himself the surrounding conditions which had to open a new path to penetrate the thickets. Shortly after, the voice disappeared, but it did not stop there, this time he saw a woman sitting on a large tree that had fallen. like other normal humans who have fear, Johan then re-entered his brain after seeing it. He prayed for almighty protection so that the beings who appeared did not disturb him. On the other hand, Iwan dreams about Johan. To the extent that sweat poured from all over his body, Ahmad who woke up and realized Iwan was having a bad dream, swiftly woke Iwan, as well as reciting prayers for him.

" Wan, Iwan.ayo wake up Wan. What dreams are you, let's get up quickly." (Take a pat on Iwan's shoulder)

Iwan woke up, he was relieved because all he saw was his nightmare that concerned Johan.

" Are you Wan's nightmares?" ahmad asked who was worried about Iwan.

" Yes, I had a nightmare, and the dream was about Johan." replied Iwan with an irregular breath.

" What? your dream is about Johan, Dang. This makes me worry about him even more. " Said Ahmad.

Then Ahmad gave his drinking water to Iwan.

"Here drink, calm yourself."

Still ranting about his dream, where in the dream...

" Ahmad, I dream of Johan, Johan was taken by a guardian creature with his legs dragged forcibly far away, and after that, Johan was like being surrounded by powerful energies." Iwan said.

" Wait a minute, you mean that powerful energy, does Johan seem unconscious and is in the subconscious?" ask Ahmad about the details of the dream.

" I don't know, but for sure we can't stay here" he replied.

The day is approaching morning, but Johan has not been able to fall back to sleep due to the mystical events he experienced that night. Slowly he closed his eyes. However, Johan felt that something was awkward, because suddenly he seemed to be pulled by someone out of his brain. When he woke up, he found himself being dragged into the bushes. As if unable to fight, can only surrender when in the middle of the bush , up to the wounds all over his body. Surprisingly, Johan could not see who was pulling him, he looked at his feet and prayed. Until he arrived at a place that many tall trees shady. There he just stopped by himself, suddenly it made him surprised and afraid, in his mind he asked.

" What place is this, it seems like I'm really going even further into the middle of the forest" he said.

Johan took the initiative to return to his original place, by following the trail of his former dragged earlier.

In the middle of the journey, he met an old grandmother, his posture was bent with a stick in his hand. Johan then greeted the grandmother, and wanted to ask about the purpose of walking in the middle of the forest at midnight.

" Granny, what are you doing here?" ask in a loud voice.

How surprised Johan was, after the grandmother turned to him. It turns out that the face of the grandmother, her face has rotted and is no longer visible. Of course, Johan was surprised to immediately run away in a storm somewhere as long as he stayed away from that place. Until he unwittingly dropped, some of his personal items. But he no longer cares about that.

" Fyuh.exhausting, it's been a long time it seems like I'm not sports even though it's just jogging" said Johan.

It was obvious that he was tired, his breathing was already irregular.

" My breath.hah.hah, I want to rest and sleep as soon as possible."

It was almost morning, already at dawn. Johan had lost his way, his mind was only fixed to where he had set up the bivouac.

" I have to go back well I have to come back soon. It was likely that the four of them had returned by now. But before that, I have to find water to quench my thirst." he murmured inwardly.

That's Johan's plan right now. While walking down the road, he tried to find his luggage that had fallen while running. The lush clump looked very difficult to find his possessions like looking for a needle in a haystack.

In the end he ignored and mengikhlaskan, then refocus to look for springs.

" It's harder than I thought, to the point that my thirst increases." Johan complained.

Elsewhere, Iwan and Ahmad had just woken up, looking like they were still very tired.

" Aargh was morning apparently. It felt like I wasn't sleeping all night" Ahmad said.

" Iwan, let's wake up Wan. It's dawn, come on get up. Ivan..Iwan." he added.

Iwan awoke from his sleep and found his eyes swelling sideways.

" Ooo it's morning apparently, hooaam." (When rubbing his eyes) "Wait a minute, what is this, why are my eyes swollen next to." Iwan's reaction was surprised.

Ahmad was smiling to himself.

" It was jengkol Wan, it seemed to fall right in your eyes last night" Ahmad said in a joking tone.

" Oh, this makes it a little difficult for me to blink my eyes" he added.

They cleaned themselves, after worshiping and the bag had been secured. Once they felt all was safe, they returned to the starting place of the split, as pointed out by Johan. Hungry because they could not eat last night, but their spirits were still burning.

" Come Wan, we have to hurry, after this we can definitely eat, I'm sure it is" said Ahmad pumping the spirit.

" I'm sure, too, Mad."

They kept walking, Iwan who walked in front while Ahmad behind him. Far enough away their journey to return to their original place, thirst and hunger seemed to hinder them. And sure enough, Iwan who was not strong enough to walk again, finally fainted on the road. Sontak , it makes Ahmad distraught.
