That night the rain was heavy and the storm gradually subsided, the long fight that Darto did was also over. Now all that appeared on the edge of the swamp were the dozens of pocongs who kept on fearing, because their leader had already perished.

Some of the figures were crying, some continued to laugh with a creepy voice, but there was also a smile approaching Darto with lips floating on his shattered face.

Seeing all that, Darto again shouted. He tried to calm all the creatures that were being overwhelmed with a sense of excitement in front of him. He loudly opened the voice "Calm down! You'll be free in the morning!"

Hearing the screams that Darto shouted, all the pocongs simultaneously stopped. They immediately silenced, his body stood upright unmoved, while looking at Darto. They were all completely in disbelief, with the sentence they had just listened to.

"Is that true?" said one of the pocongs that appeared before Darto suddenly.

"Better tomorrow you don't have to show up. Because tomorrow there will be many people who come, to make a new resting place, which you will use," said Darto a little loud. He deliberately spoke loudly so that all the figures in front of him could hear his words.

The atmosphere was back rowdy, dozens of figures in front of Darto were completely moved. The sound of their crying with each other, all the pocong figures were happy and did not believe at the same time. Hearing tomorrow they would be released from the shackles, which had bound them for so long.

"Thank you" said one of the pocongs in front of Darto.

"May we know what your name is, sir?" The other chimpanzees, while jumping slowly and continuing to approach Darto.

"I'm Darto, you better leave now. I was afraid that if someone saw you, then he abandoned their intention to help you" said Darto, a little reasoned. In fact he felt uneasy as he continued to look at the shattered faces of all the creatures in front of him.

"good. May Mr. Darto always be given protection," said the pocong closest to Darto, then he just disappeared.

All the pocongs that had been so crowded beside the swamp were no longer there, all said a word of thanks while shouting the name of Darto, before they finally disappeared and did not reappear.

Seeing the situation that was conducive, Darto rushed to take off his clothes that had been covered with rain water mixed with sweat from his body, he grabbed dry clothes from inside the bag he had kept under a sizable tree beside the swamp.

After he finished changing his clothes, although tired Darto again walked a little into the forest. He walked alone without anyone to accompany him, because Sastro and Wajana were also ready to recover their drained energy.

After a long time running, Darto finally arrived at his destination. The place she once came with her two friends, the place that was none other than where one of her childhood friends rested.

That night in deserted Darto cleaned some twigs and leaves that had piled up. He simply used his hands, without any aids to remove all of it from the top of his friend's grave. After being clean enough, he hurried to sit cross-legged beside her, then began reciting a series of verse by verse in his solemnity. Darto sincerely continued to pray, asking for forgiveness for all the sins that Dining had committed during his life. Then left Dining's tomb and rested not far from the place.

Not long after the sun began to rise, the group that Anto brought had reached the edge of the swamp. They immediately dug one by one place that had been marked Darto, up to half of the number of collateral successfully lifted that afternoon.

After all the tumbals had been lifted, their bones were immediately purified with swamp water, then wrapped in a new shroud, then shaled and reburied where Dining rested.

That day everyone really shuddered. They had not expected that underground there were so many corpses buried in the wrong position. Not to mention during the break, Darto explained the process of their deaths. Some people immediately wrath while condemning the perpetrator of the abuse, they do not believe if their parents are willing to bury their children alive, only for satisfaction that may never have an end.

That day everyone seemed busy, they only rested a few times to just perform prayers and also fill the stomach. They were all almost done moving the 19 corpses that had left their bones alone, towards their new resting which was quite far away.

Until the time the sky had begun to darken, the body to 19 finally finished passing the funeral process. Everyone looked relieved, they even kept joking around with clothes that were still so dirty on their bodies. That day they felt they had gotten two birds in one throw. It has been paid a lot, plus a reward that is certainly also abundant for the activities they do.

After quite a long time of pleasantries, considering that the sky had darkened, everyone decided to rest again. They agreed to travel home the next day, as fatigue had completely taken hold of their bodies.

After the end of performing Isya worship, everyone immediately fell asleep one by one. As usual, only Darto and Anto were left. The two of them continued to talk about his past, until finally Darto opened a pretty serious conversation with his friend.

"Tok, how about you and your wife just stay at my house" asked Darto as he looked at Anto with a straight look.

"What's the matter, Dar?" anto asked slightly frowned.

"Sri's been tagged, Tok. I'm afraid that the man who killed my mother hurt your wife" Darto said bowed.

Like being struck by lightning. Anto's chest was completely congested instantly, he was stunned to listen to Darto's words that continued to echo in his eardrum. In that instant, Anto was really worried about his wife.

"You don't fuck around, Dar!" sergeant Anto was a little emotional, after hearing the statement that Darto made.

"You're my best friend, Tok. I really do not want to happen something with you and your family," said Darto a little sad, while patting Anto's shoulder and looking into Anto's eyes with a confident face.

Hearing Darto's words, Anto's emotions subsided a little, then he asked a million questions that night as well. Until finally he got the story of all that Darto had experienced so far. From stories about the origin of cursed women created, to the terror that his family experienced. Darto told it all in sequence and detail, until finally Anto managed to respond to Darto's request to stop at his home.
