The Shack
TG 14: A Creature



The smell of rotten smell. So stinging that the teenager closed his nose trying to resist the nausea that swirled in the stomach. It was really like standing among a pile of food waste disposal warehouses. How can there be an unpleasant smell?


The rooms are on the second floor and have only one entrance and exit. Al stopped his steps, then raised his hand ready to pull over the curtain. Hearts pounding so fast. Worry is attacking. He hesitated but had to check.


The long dangling cloth was now clasped in the hand, "Come on, calm Al." Long breath just to neutralize his feelings.


The sound of the curtains sounded so clearly breaking the tension that existed. Heavy rain spots welcomed Al. There was nothing but unfriendly weather. Eye gazes trace the area around the balcony from the right side to the middle to the left. There's nothing.


After making sure everything is safe. Suddenly some questions arise. What was that sound? Isn't it like a falling thing? If so, where did it fall? Confused by the situation, but as a brother tried to stay calm until it felt a warm touch holding the right shoulder.


"Out there's nothing. We better rest ... " Al turned around unsuspectingly until wide-eyed gazes saw something that could not be described.


A large tall creature with a body covered in dense black fur stood before him. A figure so terrible that it made it difficult for him to speak. A formless face with an outstretched tongue drooling.


Suddenly his lips were soft. Wanting to scream, in fact the body fell silent as if controlled by someone else. Fear can no longer hold him. A trembling body hopes to be moved. "Sii-aa-paa kaa-muu?"


His voice stammered questioning the invisible essence that was restraining his movements. A large hand with long pointed nails still faithfully holds his shoulders. Who is not afraid? The body tried to calm down but was unable to endure the immense shock.


"Al!" One shoulder pat came back startling, "Why are you daydreaming? Come back to sit." Ans pulled the brother's hand without excuse.


Where her sister looks confused. What the hell's going on? He doesn't know either. It was just that for ten minutes the elder brother seemed to be quietly standing in front of the window. It was strange to just stare at the raindrop without turning to say what was seen.


It made him take the initiative to approach in order to awaken the brother. Al looked at the forest. The blank eyes looked as if he had just undergone therapeutic shock. Want to ask directly only he realized he had to calm the brother first.


A glass of water is extended, "Drink, Al. The rain will stop. So don't worry so." He guided his brother to sit in the place before. Then let her drink water from him.


Ale observed the contrasting changes in Al's face. The elder brother who was always calm with a relaxed but serious expression. Now it looks strange because of the look of empty eyes, face paled even his shoulders up and down. What the hell's going on? What did Al see?


"Guy's, there's a message coming in." A's chirps distract everyone in the room. "Daur? This is a man of nothing."


Messages from foreign numbers that did not come from where managed to restore Al's consciousness. The boy left his seat and hurried to get the jar of firefly on the table. The heart says it must release the animal to where it came from.


"You guys stay home! I'll be gone for a while." said Al without a doubt.
