Andy and Bowo

Andy breathed a sigh of relief and a smile as usual.when he managed to neatly arrange the camera, lens and other shooting trinkets on the nightstand... he is very understanding of his duties as well as very thorough.

His forehead crinkled when he realized that the mini bag containing the A3 spare battery could not be found in every bag he opened.

Bowo came out of the bathroom with a fresh look, making Andy rush in to replace Bowo, after all he had wanted to urinate since. While dressed Bowo observed the surroundings of the Cabin from the direction of the window of his room on the second floor. On the north side of this view is limited by a wall fence made high. about 3 meters. apparently made to limit the land of Cabin land with neighboring land next door. A little strange also in the mind of Bowo.if in a village that is quite remote and adjacent houses in each hamlet must build a barrier wall that high.

Bowo felt that he was behind the fortress. Funny mixed with weird feelings. Back present when Bowo felt a figure passing under the window of his room. Bowo was silent for a moment and while trying to smile, the figure had passed. He was a thin and white-haired middle-aged man, with a striped pajama-like outfit.

Bowo's daydream breaks as Andy exits the bathroom and whistles. He was also as fresh as Bowo and pointed towards the well-arranged drawing equipment.

"the spare A3 battery may be in a Vienna or Chika bag or it may be Mas Seno. I can't find it in our bag." he said while pulling a small towel to dry his still wet hair

"on the way yesterday.I still see it in your bag.I even kept it back when you dropped it on the car seat earlier.. " Bowo frowned and approached the equipment bag

"already.no .. I'm instead looking in my backpack and your backpack earlier.., maybe in a Vienna bag or chika. later we ask".. Andy tidied back the equipment bag that Bowo opened.

Vienna and Chika

Chika was still observing Vienna sleeping under the breeze coming from their bedroom window. The direction of the view to the south of the bias of sunlight before lunchtime looks reassuring. She had changed clothes.dark green striped shirt with matching color cloth pants and of course a young gray plisket hijab that covers the head and bandages the neckline.

If he obeyed his heart, not wanting him to wake Vienna up, Vienna's thin face with exotic eastern alloys looked peaceful in his sleep. But they have to have lunch and especially the initial briefing is the determinant of their activity for the next five days. Chika slightly shook her head firmly when she remembered Mas Seno's flat face when they were working out of schedule.

"Win. wake up. bathe. eat. briefing.. "

That's the only speech Chika can digest Vienna. Due to awakening startled and reflex pull the towel then passed to the bathroom.

Almost fifteen minutes passed, Vienna came out with a towel wrapped around her waist and a top just a bra, she did not care much about the look of her body, besides, he forgot to bring a change of clothes in the bathroom.

Chika glared with her lips snarled towards Vienna who was grinning.

"t-shirt I missed earlier.you sih ngagetin".wien said while starting the ritual dress.deodorant continued hand and body lotion then spray cologne mainstay. And it ends in a light grey oblong shirt and dark blue belle jeans with a fashionable tear on the knee and slightly above the right thigh.. Vienna very rarely uses makeup even though thin.she only apply sun screen and lipglos on her thin lips and blackish because of tobacco smoke.

Viennese smoker although he sometimes do it by hiding in his study, according to him that's how he felt in others who still think smoking for women is inappropriate.

As they rushed about to get out, Chika turned around to close the room window. A customary act for security reasons, although it is not necessary, they are on the second floor of the cabin and their rooms without any connection from the window, except the front door corridor. Instantly Chika gasped, her eyes looking directly at the eyes of the middle-aged man with thin hair who was staring at her from under the window. As soon as possible Chika locked the window and put the cloth cover together, before passing swiftly over Vienna. The door is locked and the card is on it.

"you why the hell.it's like you've seen a ghost.. " Vienna frowned towards Chika who was still stunned and seemed to be thinking hard.

"let's eat first. hungry nihh" Chika took Vienna's hand as soon as she regained her control. They immediately passed to the end of the corridor and next they went down the sturdy stairs of wood made very admirable.

Mas Seno's

"odd. odd." murmured Seno. because in his room he was only one, then it was aimed at himself.

The room is more spacious than the others, there is a sofa set for relaxing and will be used for briefing. He booked a room with such special needs and it turned out that the cabin provided them.

As an experienced photographer, every angel and shooting angle always attracts his attention. If in the hands of others it just looks very ordinary. But if it is in the management of Seno will be extraordinary with an evocative look, unexpected and high artistic value.

Suit size bedroom pictures are one that should appear in their reviews. So he had taken some pictures of the interior of his room, even before cleaning himself.

Seno is not a work enthusiast, he just cannot let the moment pass without being ignored. For those who see it will assume the same, workaholic. For him he felt it was a demand and it just happened. I don't know where it really happened. No one really wants to find out, as long as the work is satisfactory.

This was the second time he had checked the image on his camera screen and the strange feeling grew. His attention was shifted to the knock on his bedroom door. Seno tuned the camera position on the switch off and rushed towards the door.

"Pak Seno Sorry, was waiting for lunch downstairs" there stood the flight attendant Tama Deni who was assigned to remind lunch. There are no phone facilities in the room.

Seno nodded as a gesture of going down soon and shutting the door again.

He stared at his camera as well as the laptop screen that was still on. Yes it can be done later, the intention is in the heart and passed closing the room to the bottom floor.

Briefings and unusual things

Their lunch was unexpected. Fresh vegetables with various types of menus and seafood such as grilled fish and lobsters shrimp presented filled the table in front of them.

Before their amazement peaked.knock right sandal Mba Ambar owner and cabin manager to make their attention seized

His likeness of the lunch meal was a welcome expression to their team, as one way of showing their thanks and support so that they could produce the correct coverage the cabin needed, he said, as one of the facilities in the local tourist destination.

After satisfied eating lunch, without wasting any more time they rushed to Mas Seno's room. And do not forget to thank Mbak Ambar also the servants.

Sure enough to worry Andy and Bowo missed. None of the other Chika, Vienna or Mas Seno stores a small bag of spare batteries.

Half riled Andy put in the inventory list of scattered goods and make a booking note. Everything must be recorded, even if the activity is done by themselves.

Mas Seno recounted his thoughts and strange feelings he encountered from the results of photos that had been transferred to the laptop memory. One they observe. Comparing what they saw in the room and what was recorded in Mas Seno's super HD camera lens shot.

In conclusion, they agree that there is a significant difference between the two images. In the photo, the room looks smaller than they see in plain view. The difference is actually not realized if the observer is not really trying to compare at the same time. But they are not casual observers, they are professionals with an instinct that works more extra than the general person, if it hits their field of work.

Bowo and Andy headed for the part that gave a prominent size difference effect. On the wall that limits between rooms and the side that becomes the corner of the room. Pushing slowly with the palm, tapping also slightly pressed on the bottom of the wall which is all made of sturdy teak wood with a motif that is so natural. Either what they expected, it was too naive to think they would find a hidden button.or a unique lever that suddenly gave them an answer. But there's no harm in trying, right?

The lights suddenly went out, the only light source from two bedroom windows. Vienna rushed to another window and pulled it open. And he was suffocated instantly. reflexively retreated and gripped Mas Seno's arm

".. mass Seno." he said softly after managing to catch his breath.. Chika also docked in surprise. Likewise, Andy and Bowo, they both rushed to the window whose cloth was half open.

"That's Mass. I saw the shadow of the figure of the person when I opened the window cloth earlier." Obviously Vienna is still a little trouble breathing

"aahh time anyway Win. there is a part of the outer wall. There is even no footing for someone standing in front of the window." Mas Seno chimed in while bringing Vienna to the sofa to be calmer.

But Vienna is not a woman who is easily afraid, in fact she is known to be more persistent if you are facing difficult situations on the field.

A cold wind broke through the open window, blowing on the window-cover. Bowo and Andy are forced to close the window and the cloth. The atmosphere of the room is really dark and cold, the only light they get from the reflection of white objects in the room, such as sleeping lights made of porcelain.

Room doors are automatically locked when the lights go out, so they cannot leave the room.

"Well we wait a while, there's usually a backup generator. " As usual Seno's voice sounded calm but firm, slightly melting the atmosphere.

Seno walked slowly to her tool bag, where she kept a fluorescent light for emergencies. He did not expect to use it, unless he had to. Because all their phones are in charger mode.

"after stirring for a while, he found the 30 cm long stick still veiled in a protective cloth. Successfully get the button after fingering on one side.

And the blue glowing light immediately dazzled their eyes. It has been past 10 minutes and there is no sign that the lights will light up. They only hear the sound of feet running along the corridor as well as the earthy voice of the mouth. Maybe the officers who were trying to cope with the situation of the lights that went out.

The five of them were sitting on the sofa with fluorescent lights lying resignedly on the table.

'Gimana Nihh Mas Seno's.. "Chika half-whispered, actually she was a little phobic with a dark atmosphere. Her plight began to sweat excessively, double the stress had already melajanya.

" Let's wait a minute" replied Mas Seno.

Bowo and Andy agree, after all this usually doesn't last long.

The lights had not yet turned on and the running sound was also earthy in the corridor not yet over. It seems like there was a short-circuit incident that caused the lights to go out. Mas Seno walked towards the door with a fluorescent light in his light. Bowo and Andy check their phones, what power can be used to light up the room, and of course will contact the receptionist to ask.

This time they were startled by Mas Seno's voice jolt that exclaimed rather loudly.

The reflexes of the four of them sprang towards Mas Seno, who was sculpting with fluorescent lights glued to illuminate the closed door of the room.

The sight before them was right making them unable to think clearly. And can only be glued in a very gloomy atmosphere.

The door was filled with long strokes here and there like nails that stuck repeatedly to claw and leave a creepy mark. The bloodstains between the strokes are so visible with fluorescent lights. Instantly they retreated and similarly choked out for a moment when the lights came on blindingly.

For a moment they were silent in front of the horror scene with frozen thoughts. Until a knock on the door woke them up.

Seno gestured for them to return to the sofa and act calm, while she kept the fluorescent light after it was extinguished into her bag.

Next they woke up in an empty room with no furniture, with the body lying limp on the cold floor, which there was only a hazy inscription on one of the walls

Hampa Space

And a soft hum of central-mounted air conditioning fills the air.
