The 336 Hours

Chapter 6. Four B's (Brigita, Bree, Bricia, Brayan)

David flinched as his right hand was grabbed by a pair of rough, wrinkled hands. David looked to the side. An old woman sat beside him. The woman was wearing a robe. The cloak's head covering his entire head. Except for her long white hair that was scattered through the head covering.

David wanted to pull his hand, but was held back by the woman. He flipped David's hand so that his palm was now facing upwards. His right index finger gently rubbed the surface of his palm. David had pulled his hand again because he felt a sensation like being electrocuted. It also feels a little painful.

"Sorry madam, who are you?" david asked quietly while grimacing in pain.

"You are destined to meet me today" he replied while still wiping David's palm. It is like making a pattern shape.

"Sorry madam, do I know you?" ask David again.

"Sst ...!" the woman just hissed telling David to shut up.

David locked his mouth. He decided to trust the old woman at this moment. It was possible that he could get an answer to the strange events that had befallen him.

"Done!" the woman suddenly.

The situation that was once bright now turned pitch-black. The white clouds turned into very dark clouds. Anyone who saw it was certain to run away, and thought the world would end. The wind started blowing hard. The wind began to form like a vortex, devouring all the objects that were around it.

David wanted to run from there to save himself. But his right hand was still held tightly by the old woman earlier.

"Calm down!" the old woman's orders.

"Well! How can I calm down madam" exclaimed David in a trembling voice.

"Shut up and sit back next to me if you want answers!" the old woman looked at David's face.

David was surprised to see the old woman's face. His body was incompatible with his face. Wrinkled hands and white hair. But his face still looks young. Very incompatible with his frail body.

If he did not guess wrongly, the body of the old woman was seventy years old, and her face was about forty years old. His mouth was so surprised.

David finally gave up. He chose to follow the woman's orders. This time he did not call her an old woman after seeing her face. He sat right next to the woman

"Listen and follow my orders!"

David just nodded his head.

"Open your right palm now!" the woman's orders.

David immediately opened his right palm. Sure enough, his guess. The woman made a pattern that was previously invisible. But now the pattern looks real because it emits a gold-colored beam from his own palm. David was amazed to see something he thought was magical.

The wind approached them slowly. David's face looks pale.

"Geez, I have to die once again" he said weakly.

"Facing your palm on that vortex!" the woman's orders again.

David immediately did his orders. He no longer wanted to argue with the woman. He just wants this whole thing done. The wind is getting closer. David didn't want to see what would happen next. He chose to close his eyes.

Even though both of his eyes were closed, he could feel that the darkness had turned into a bright light.

"Open your eyes!" the woman's orders.

David opened his eyes slowly. Again. He was surprised not to play. The city park he was in just disappeared. There were no dark clouds and strong whirlwinds in place now.

David and the woman were now in a vast meadow. The yellow grasslands glowed like the sun.

"Brity!" exclaim that woman.

David raised his eyebrows. He was still confused by this sudden state of affairs.

"My name" said the woman without looking at David.

"David Walker's. A dead man was killed on the shore of Ray Hubbard Lake" Brigita said.

"Why do you know?" david asked in surprise.

"I know everything about you" Brigita said.

Brigita walked a step ahead of David. He walked step by step towards a hut under a large tree.

David who was still surprised immediately realized when he saw Brigita's figure began to move away. He immediately followed the woman before she was left far behind.

Brigita stood at the door of the cottage. The door opened without having to be knocked first.

"Are you with him?" ask the voice of a man who sounded like a teenager..

"He's behind me!" burgundy Brigita.

Brigita went into the cottage. David immediately followed her inside. Again he was surprised to see the contents in the cottage. From outside the cottage it looks old and reot. The situation inside the cottage was very much different.

The walls are made of natural stone. It is quite large in size, and feels warm. David saw there were three people in there not including them. A teenage boy and two adult twin girls who are his age.

"Ah, I'm sorry!" said the teenage boy while looking down.

"Sit down!" order of one of the twin girls.

David grabbed a wooden chair and sat there. Everyone was sitting around the round table, like they were holding a round table conference.

"Include me Bree. She's my twin sister Bricia, and our younger brother Brayan. You've met our oldest sister, Brigita," the woman explained.

"I don't think I need to introduce myself anymore" David said.

They were all silent, except for Brayan who from earlier looked agitated.

"Why are you apologizing to me?" david asked Brayan.

"My man" she said stammering and slenderly stopped by her sister, Bricia.

"We're not witches" Bricia said.

David immediately stood up as Bricia said the word 'witch'.

"If you say no, it means yes!" exclaim David.

"Sit down!" brigita's orders.

The four people stared at David asking him to immediately sit down and settle the mess caused by their youngest brother.

"OKs. I sat down," David replied as he pulled his chair away from them. He chose to sit near the entrance to make it easier for him to run if something happened.

"We're talented kids who have pure power. You must have seen the news on television, especially on an event that captures strange events on CCTV screens" Bricia explained.

"Some of them suddenly disappear, run fast, take fire out of their bodies, fly, and there's a lot more talent that talented kids like us have" Bree explained.

"Attent. Give me some time to digest all of your words" David asked.

David had seen the news about it. But all the news was denied because of hoax, and it was just a camera trick.

"What does this have to do with me?" ask David.

"Of course there is" Bree replied.
