TG 22: The Invisible Creature, Lost



The shouts of command from Monica jerked Ans' consciousness. The young man immediately rose from where he fell despite having to hold his hand that felt sprained. That's no reason to stay silent. Help Kevin to stand up.


Fresh blood dyed his best friend's lips. Obviously it must have been a deep wound due to a pretty violent impact. Strangely the noise in the room no one from the Wellington family heard. It was as if the other world was the center of the commotion.


The shadow shot back and forth but seemed to be circling in one place. Monica tried to distract the creature by clawing at the skin of her left wrist. It was done just to change the scent of blood in the room.


The creature's target is Kevin. So it is not a problem for him to be a distraction even though consciously feeding himself. Whatever he's gonna do so they can be safe first. Sure enough, the creature was increasingly confused because the scent of blood mixed in one room.


"Ans, it's the creatures that kidnap my family one by one. If he's here then the person who sent him is also around the villa or .. uhuk in the villa and lives with us." obviously Kevin withstood the pain in the chest that felt hot like burning charcoal.


The guest rooms they occupy are located at the very end. Although the two rooms from their place were the rooms that Mr. Delano occupied. Still, every room has thick walls because the building follows the Dutch design.


"What should we do? Yells?" asked Ans confusedly by herself. Honestly, the situation is more stressful. A lifetime of believing in logic but suddenly faced with a mystical thing.


Kevin circulated his gaze through the entire corner of the room but other than the bed, table, sofa chair, sideboard, wooden cabinet, bathroom. There were no displays except for a few vases of flowers. Once again trying to remember the past among the chaos of the time.


The body that started trembling did not make the young man give up. Faced with memories that still present deep sadness until he found a piece of truth about the creature. His raised hand pointed to the corner of the right side bed made Monica turn her head in the direction in question.


"The water of the bidara leaves is hidden under the bed. We can use it to ward off attacks by creatures who intend to kidnap one by one members in this villa." said Kevin then re-opened his eyes. "Monica, take the bamboo under the bed with your right hand!"


While holding back the pain. The girl moved away from her place but did not realize the distance was getting further away from Kevin's whereabouts. The smell of blood that began to separate made the creature switch direction. The wind that blows so cold.


The sensation of cold heat ambushing blocked Ans' arm. The young man's body slammed backwards while Kevin groaned in pain enjoying the grip of his hand on his neck. The roar of breath began to be disturbed, once again the aroma of DANUR smelled so pungent from the creature.


"Ha-ha-ha, it's free that you take my life. The ritual has been destroyed since the beginning because ... Uhuk ...," Kevin tried to heat up the creature by arguing but instead the creature tightened the chuckle around his neck.


The world feels increasingly cruel when destiny takes away the happiness of the heart. Such a loss of a family on an actual journey is expected as a field of togetherness. Fear no longer affects a broken heart.


But at this time, he is not alone and precisely with two lives that are very dear to him. How will I give up? In the rest of his consciousness a mantra was uttered. Whether it worked or not but the mantra was the end result of a search for many years.


Weak shrieks helplessly to the point of hitting the floor with the freedom that goes to release it. But the body feels so hot as if the blood inside is boiling. What the hell's going on? He was confused by his body's reaction.


Faintly seen footsteps approaching make his hands raised trying to reach the friend but the view turned dark endless. "Go from here ...," he asked, spending the rest of the consciousness to warn.


Suddenly someone knocked on the door. Ans did not want anyone to panic so he asked Monica to open the door only after moving Kevin's body onto the bed. Then the two men pretended to calmly welcome the knocker.


"You guys haven't slept? Soon morning. At least rest because health is important" said a Caucasian man with a chaotic face. Maybe just woke up or even just stayed up just for overtime work.


Monica cupped both hands in front of her chest. "Thank you for your attention, sir. We just woke up but we are still sleepy. Is there anything we can help you with?"


"That's it, I'm actually here to ask for help. Tell my family to get out of this villa quickly and don't look for us anymore" he said, giving Monica a hard thought. "Good morning, good bye."


The sound of farewells that sounded so far away but the body was in plain sight. Don't want to be prejudiced. The girl nodded her head, then stared at the passing of the Caucasian man who was walking so fast. Although it feels strange because the feathers bristled.


Repetition of the request immediately made Monica aware of something very familiar. Why do people ask for strange requests? He looked back at the front room which was empty but the fur I sat more and more standing. That means what just came was a spirit.


"Ans, pinch me!" her door with a vibrating tone of voice made Ans do her request by heart. "Aw, sick. We'd better tell the Wellington family to get out of the villa. Ans, we've been warned. How now?"


The panic swept through undermining the sense of no man. The arrival of the spirit just now further strengthens the allegations of immoral practices that can be disastrous. I don't know what the reason for this mystery is but he's sure of one thing. The lives of everyone are in danger.


Ans tries to calm Monica down by bringing the girl lying on her lap. He who is accustomed to being firm must soften for the common good. After what happens, he realizes his best friend has advantages as an indigo girl. How can I know now?


Time passes so fast. No sunshine to a new day. An unstoppable drowsiness, cradling the three students in a long dream. Elsewhere, a confused face appears. When opening your eyes for the first time, only the white walls look unadorned.


"Where am I?" he asked himself with eyes all around but only found nothingness.


Confused by the surrounding. Moreover, only the top wall looks white while the other half is black. The consciousness that was still gathered gasped when a hand accidentally nudged something behind it.


"What's this?" He picked up an object that he thought was chewy, but suddenly heard a distinctive buzzing sound of waking up that was very familiar. "Ale, is that you?"


"Hooaam," Ale covered his mouth with his right hand, then got up just to sit down while stretching out both hands. "Al, where are we? My head is so dizzy, yeah."


Head woozy? What Ale felt was also his feeling. He was astonished and could not ask, then how to answer his sister's question? Amidst the increasingly dizzying confusion, incandescent voices sounded strange from the outside of the room.


I don't know what I read but it sounds so foreign. Both of them are still unaware of where and because of whom. The two children have been separated from their families since last night. While inside the villa there was a furore after learning of the disappearance of the two Wellington family children.


The adult men split up in search of Ale and Al. The sound of a mutually earthy call continued to echo along the hallway of the villa. From one corner to another but no signs can be used as clues. The worry is getting worse because they ignore the premonition that has been felt.


Surprisingly why the villa guard also disappeared without news even when checking the back room. The room had not been inhabited for a long time. Spider nests that adorn the sky room accompanied by a nest of cockroaches and rats. So, where is Mr Rudi staying?


Papa Delano kept checking the back room even though Bara had to help to repel the adhesive creatures who were busy biting something. The focus is not distracted open the drawer in the room. One by one examined them carefully but after such a hard struggle. Actually not finding anything.


The brothers were family from the guard's room and did not forget to close it again. Then walk down the other side of the aisle that attracts attention. Where there is a wooden door to the backyard of the villa. A large high door that is certainly thick looks clean even when holding a knob feels dustless.


"Ka, is it possible that the guard has his own house behind the villa?" ask Bara. More precisely guessing the possibility that could have happened.


Turn the door knob, then push forward. The wind blowing on the face brings the freshness of the aroma of the leaves that are wet because of the rain. The door opened wide with a slow creaking sound. That means it is often bypassed by humans because the hinges function properly. Especially the traces of last night.


"The trail is only on the ground but why are the floors kept clean? If it does walk in there should be a brown trail with wet soil attached. Is it possible for that person to take off his shoes, so to enter barefoot?" muttered Papa Delano with his first conclusion, making Bara crouch.


Traces were again observed, but it remained as the elder brother had expected. The trail leads into the villa and opens the other way around. However, people who are new from the outside must leave a trail of land just why be confusing? The two men were busy pondering over what had happened.


Without realizing there was a pair of eyes watching from a close distance with a sharp gaze like a predator in the forest that was ready to pounce. The wickedest grin on his lips, "City people like you must be just confused. I'll start the ritual tonight and your son should be the offering."
