LAST CLIMB (EPS.1)
3. Commemorations.

After they finished praying and checking the equipment they brought, at exactly four in the afternoon they began the climb to the first post. Randy walks ahead while Beni and Anita are behind him, then Danu and Aini after that Arie walks last.

The journey has just begun but silence has been created since, something unusual for this trip. The path that is not too lush by the bushes on the left and right and the terrain that has not been too uphill, making them able to pass through it quite quickly.

But only a few hundred meters from the starting point of the climb, Arie who walked the back was asking for rest, his breathing was panting even his face began to pale.

"Bro, stop first yes, cave tired, cave breath exhausted."

Arie screamed a little for those who walked ahead, they had walked far enough away to leave but were lucky they could still hear Arie's scream. He sat straight on his legs leaning against a large tree behind him while putting as much oxygen into his lungs as he seemed to be not supporting Arie's current activities.

"yes, bro, just broke off too, losing time with girls."

Danu said with a snide tone but Arie did not respond to it, he was used to the words of pearl often spoken by his own friends.

"yes, we lose with us."

Aini's timps, with different tones and smiles but the results that remained the same, were equally painful.

"Yes, we rest first, five minutes, the rich first post is also already deket, maybe not nyampe half an era again."

Randy always mediates them, his ability to control the situation is very useful when conditions like that, and they also seem to have no problem when Randy positions himself as a leader to manage them, he said, all for the sake of smoothness during the climb.

Five minutes is not a long time but enough to recover a little energy, after resting again they continue the journey to the first post which according to estimates the distance is not so far away. The day is getting darker but the first post is still not visible, even though if in accordance with the map instructions given by the person in the registration post earlier should have arrived, it should have arrived, but not long after they finally arrived at the first post, Arie who had been exhausted since earlier immediately dropped keril and all his luggage then lay down on a piece of grassy land that was beside the first post while re-inserting as much oxygen as possible.

"It's just that you've been patar lo Rie, this is still far away."

Beni sat next to Arie who was enjoying her rest, she did not care about the babble of people who mocked her, including Beni.

"Sory bro, the rich cave is no longer fit."

Arie responds to Beni's remarks casually and in a position that also looks relaxed

"We rest here only one hour, so the wealth does not need to make a tent, just make a fire for cooking, who wants to paint wood or twigs?"

Randy gave the code, but unfortunately the others seemed to have no intention of volunteering, none of them responded, so Randy was forced to leave alone.

"Ok, if there's none, the cave that's burning wood, you wait here."

With a machete he carried, Randy will go alone without any fear of what is behind the darkness of the forest that might kill him at any time.

"Eh Ran, wait, the cave's coming."

Beni is finally willing to accompany Randy in search of firewood, because he thinks it's bad to let Randy find firewood alone.

"But, the cave too."

Which then followed by Danu who slightly ran after the two of them.

"Co on the go anyway? who are we the same?"

Aini protest, in a place that will soon be dark, he does not want to be left with people who are currently unreliable.

"There is Arie with Anita, have you wait here, while preparing food, so if we can go back to live cooking directly."

It was getting dark until Arie, Anita and Aini were unable to see each other clearly, the atmosphere was no longer silent as the singing of the night animals began to loud, the small flashlight that Arie was carrying was unable to illuminate the three of them in the post. Anita and Aini were busy preparing the ingredients for this dinner, some eggs and spices, and rice to cook rice.

Crutches.crek.

The sound of bushes being trampled on something right behind Arie whether it be animals or something else makes them a little creepy, because how not, no, in the haunted forest at the foot of this mountain anything could have existed and happened, they looked at each other with bated breath, resisting the attacking fear, then without cueing, they looked at each other, a ferret ran in front of them, making them flinch in shock but relieved that all they saw was a ferret, without them noticing that a pair of red eyes were looking at them sharply, keep an eye on all their current movements.

"Damn it, damn animal, don't know what else people are afraid of."

Arie cussed, his body now feels weak after having tensed up in fear.

"They're long anyway."

Aini was already starting to rile after the incident, her feelings started to feel bad.

"They're coming soon."

Anita tries to calm Aini down even though she herself is not sure of her words. But before long, Randy, Beni and Danu had returned with wood and twigs that were not too much but felt enough to just accompany them during their first post.

"You guys really are old? Nyari twig what's sleeping?"

Arie asked tightly because he felt scared after the incident, his feelings began to feel bad after the incident.

"So we find the wood is far away, quite difficult to hear. Now we cook, let's continue the journey again."

Randy began to pile wood and twigs that they had obtained earlier, assisted by Danu, while Beni had just returned from looking for firewood, he just kept quiet never once talking, he said, he even sat a little away from them.

"Ran, Beni why? I'm kind of weird."

Randy turned his head, but he was still thinking positively after a moment of observing Beni sitting down with a bowed position.

"Maybe he's a soy sauce, justin aja, let him rest first."

Not wanting to argue, in his heart Danu confirmed what Randy said, maybe he was exhausted. Until they were surprised by something they did not expect.

"Ggggrrrrrmmmmmmmhhhhhh."

Randy and Danu looked at each other before they simultaneously turned towards the sound of the growl coming from the direction where Beni was. Beni immediately rampaged uncontrollably making Aini, Anita and Arie inching in fear, while Randy and Danu swiftly arrested and locked Beni's movements that seemed to have been possessed.

"You have to go, don't bother them."

Benie tried to fight back and thrashed with a different tone of voice, and it was obvious that it was not the voice of Beni.

"We came here not to disturb, we only hitchhiked for a few days."

The possessed Beni did not respond to Randy's words, but with all her strength she broke away from the lockdown of Danu and Randy until they both bounced, then by attacking Arie and trying to strangle him, with a flash, Arie was unable to avoid the unexpected attack, his neck was immediately in the hands of both hands Beni, Aini and Anita screamed hysterically at Arie who was strangled without being able to fight, but it doesn't last long because Randy and Danu manage to release Beni's giggles from Arie's neck and re-lock his movements.

"Hahahaha, if you continue you will die."

Beni's body collapses along with her loss of consciousness. Seeing that Randy and Danu immediately lifted him to a flatter place and close to the campfire.
