The Lost Sky

Aira had not been conscious for three days either. The girl was placed in a small room on the top floor of the headquarters of the criminals. "Will he wake up?" ask the boss for the umpteenth time.

"It seems the boy was too surprised, boss," replied his men.

"Maybe he won't survive" said the other indifferently.

"Just throw away his body if he dies, so it could be the wolf food we feed" said the boss. If he's dead, make him more useful. The body can be made into animal food that they piarara.

"Well, the boss was really mean, khe-khe-khe," chuckled his men who got the word just now.

"If it's not cruel, there's no way he can be the boss!" the other timpal.

"Not talk much! Just watch that pretty boy?!" the boss said stop the laughter of his men.

"Prepare to do it, boss!!!" say they're in unison. They all went outside, leaving the boss in the room.

"Basic troublesome," he decanted but the man smiled slightly instead.

Outside, his men who were told to watch over Aira were busy wondering about what reason made his boss instead bring the little boy to their place. "Boss wants to do what the hell with that boy?" ask one of them.

"Where do I know," said the other shrugging.

"Maybe be a servant" replied the tallest man.

"If it's a waiter, it's better to bring a little bigger. Let it be easy to be told!" the most dreadful word chimed.

"Who knew the boss wanted to manipulate the child's brain with so much fear?!" other words make more sense.

"That's possible," the other responded in agreement.

"She's gonna be a pretty doll!" kekeh one of them imagined as beautiful as what the boy their boss brought when he was an adult.

"It's best to erase the wild thoughts you had before your stupid head was blown off boss!" his partner said reminding me not to mess around.

"May your eyes be collected by the boss if you dare to glance at the boss's toys!" another word chimed.

"Ugh, don't tell me that, I got these goosebumps," he said showing his arm feathers. The other laugh broke, seeing his partner terrified by the cruelty of their boss who was known to be very sadistic.

A week later, the eyes of the little girl who had been unconscious for ten days had finally opened. He just remained motionless, making no sound at all. "Oh, it's conscious apparently," said the boss's men who were checking on Aira. "Don't go anywhere! I'll report to the boss first!" he said again and then rushed away.

The boss who heard the news looked happy, he immediately approached the room where Aira was. "Ha-ha-ha, he's really awake! I thought he wouldn't survive and die" he said laughing loudly. Aira was completely unperturbed, the little girl just silently stared straight at the ceiling of the room without blinking.

"But why is the boy silent?" ask the boss for wonder. They had already made a fuss, but this brat was completely unperturbed.

"We don't know either, boss!" I'm the guys fast.

"Maybe this brat is so scared that he can't talk and even move, boss!" said one of them.

"Is it not because he is in shock?" the other chimps opened their voices.

"He just doesn't have the energy, maybe?" said another one.

"Call someone who can take a look at it, whether it's a shaman, a doctor, or whoever it's up to" the boss said. "I don't want my weapons and toys for anything?!" closed again.

"We'll pick it up!" say three of his men leave immediately.

"My beautiful corpse, the future goddess of death, since you have passed through death, then do another miracle and obey all these commands of your FATHER!" said the boss as he stretched out his hand, taking a pinch of Aira's hair with an evil smile. He imagined how his group in the future after he managed to create a beautiful doll that was able to deceive everyone. He'll sit on top of the pile of money. Power will always accompany every step.

"Boss, I brought a doctor!" said one of the boss's men who just came back.

"This is a shaman I can find, boss!" said the other one just came.

"I politely invite a priest who is still awake from the temple nearby, boss!" said the other one while smiling broadly.

"Check him!" tell the boss to point at Aira.

Because the doctor who first came, then he was also the first to check. "How's it?" ask the boss impatiently.

The doctor nodded slowly. "No disease I found!" the answer. "This girl is just exhausted and has no intention of living" the doctor said.

The boss heard it. Not helping at all, that's what he thought. " You! Check him!" the shaman also gets a turn to show his skills.

Starting from installing a lot of candles, to using fragrances that smell very pungent, then followed by words that are sung like praise, the shaman throws something into the air, I don't know what it is. "Bad, this is bad!" he said with wide eyes. "This child has no soul!" he said again pointing at Aira.

The boss's men were a little worried, whispering about what the shaman had said just now. It was possible that someone without a soul could open their eyes like the boy they were carrying. It doesn't feel right, but their brains take it for granted.

"The cloaked carriage that can always heal everything, check and heal the boy!" tell the dissatisfied boss to just stop at the shaman. "I don't care if he doesn't have a soul or if he doesn't have a spirit, I just want him to wake up and have a strict upbringing! So do your duty as a priest!" continued the man no matter how, he wanted Aira to be fully aware quickly.

The priest came forward, replacing the shaman who had just retreated backwards. There was not much the priest did, he just touched Aira's forehead while closing his eyes. His mouth ragged the do'a-do'a, going on and on until a white light enveloped the little girl's tiny body. "Let this child rest in peace" said the priest, opening his eyes. "I will stay here until things improve" he continued.

As a priest he hates evil, but that doesn't mean he'll let bad people get hurt. All patients are the same in his eyes, they have to be helped no matter who he really is.

The boss nodded in satisfaction, he allowed the priest to sleep in the room that Aira occupied. Of course it was done so that the priest would be easier to pay attention to the situation of Aira in the future.
