62. Fauzan rampage

"Seriously so?" asked Diah while looking at Rea as well as her friends. 

"Re, you know about this? I see that you are not at all surprised" Dana said.

Dana's words certainly sounded reasonable and in accordance with the expression shown by Rea. They looked at Rea and asked for an explanation.

"Eum, yes at a glance. I know about this, but not in detail. My dad told me that story yesterday."

"Dad Mbak Rea knows? Who is my father?"

"His name is Habibi Ridwan Rashid, sir."

"God! Mr Habib? Well, I know. She was Amanda's old friend. Mas Habib and Mas Haga break into the forbidden forest and search for Mba Amanda. We even searched, but unfortunately fate said something else. Mba Amanda sacrificed herself to return the Devil to confinement."

" so the devil was ever out of his cage, sir? How come?" ask Blendoz.

" You must understand how the devil deceives. More or less the same as what experienced by Jaka. Ammon manipulated his people or followers, those who worshiped him. He did everything he could to make them obey him. This demonic power is huge. Even if he's in a cage, but he has the ability to hurt people in the dream world."

"Wow, that's amazing. Can't hurt humans in the real world, but can it hurt us in our dreams? It's equally difficult to deal with!" concluded Diah while staring at his friends, asking for support from his words.

"That's right. Maybe not creatures locked there or other lowly creatures then not a thing to worry about. But the one who was there was the devil. Even if he can't hurt people directly, but he can hurt people in our subconscious. That's when we're at our weakest point. A time where we'll be easily paralysed."

"Well, Mr. Wiryo I was curious about the contents in the well. What exactly is there in the well that is able to confine a creature with the level of a demon."

"The well here is visible only to our eyes. Once we enter the well, there will be a kind of very strong energy, which can reduce all forms of evil and good forces. In my place it will all be neutral. If we are human beings who cannot see the devil, then we enter the well, then we will see the appearance of the demon figure is the same as ourselves. We can touch it, we can hit it and do whatever we want. In that well all invisible creatures, will turn into real creatures."

"But, Sir. I don't know about a woman named Amanda Rea. How could it be he who sacrificed himself to lock the demon back into the well? Is this demon really targeting certain people?"

"Not really. He was actually targeting everyone, especially people easily influenced by him. But if Mas dana meant questions about Amanda, then that's the exception. Because Amon, intends to make Amanda's body as its host. The soul that Amanda had, was a very pure soul. This pure soul was what Amon needed to get out of the cage. Because if you use other souls then the human body will not be able to hold the figure of Ammon in him. Amon is one of the strongest demons. He actually lives in hell. There used to be a rumor circulating in hell about how the beauty of the human world, so Amon decided to escape from hell. However, of course he could not do many things, with his form like that. So he began to look for a host to be possessed. But several times he chose the victim, apparently the body is not strong to accommodate himself. Every time he wrongly possessed a human body, it would be destroyed in a matter of seconds. Until finally it is known that Amon can only possess one body that has the purest soul among other souls possessed by humans."

"Oh so he's looking for a body that has a pure soul?"

"But, sir, how does one know one's pure soul?"

"I don't know that either. Maybe only Amon could see and know who the person who had a pure soul was." 

"So that woman named Amanda Rea, is that woman? And he's a friend of your father's, Re?"

Rea just nodded. "But, sir, that means something like that could happen again, if Amon finds a man with a pure soul like what happened to Aunt Amanda back then?" ask Rea.

"Well, it could be, Mba. Amon himself cannot be killed. He is an immortal being who will only perish at the end of the day, like all of us. So the possibility that he would seek a pure soul to try to get out of his confinement could just happen again. Moreover, Amanda is dead, and all I know is that pure soul will continue to exist in every generation."

"Oh so if in the past, people who have pure souls died, then will be replaced by others again, is it, sir?"

"Metul, Mba."

"Fauzan means to be influenced by i

A noise rang out outside, bringing the discussion regarding the demon Amon to a halt. Those who were curious then walked out of the village hall and looked outside. Apparently, people are running somewhere. Mr. Wiryo then detained one of the residents who passed in front of the village hall. 

"What's wrong?" ask him seriously.

"That, Sir. The young man who had been found in the forest suddenly went on a rampage and persecuted some of our citizens" he explained frantically as he pointed at the crowd of citizens seen from the village hall. 

Hearing that, they all looked at each other, and immediately ran after the citizens to see what was happening and how severe the condition was. The person who was called a young person by the citizens who had passed by was certain that it was Fauzan. Although Fauzan was not kind to his friends, they did not hold grudges, instead feeling sorry for what happened to Fauzan. Especially considering that Fauzan is under the influence of the devil. 

They reached the crowd of citizens who looked chaotic. The market, which is one of the crowded places, became a mess because of the work of Fauzan. Now one of their friends is sitting on top of one of the village youths who is famous as a seller of cut chicken. Fauzan was strangling the young man's neck, and the rest of the population certainly did not remain silent. They were trying to pull Fauzan away from the young man. Almost five people who were trying to pull Fauzan to get away from the young man's body immediately, but they all just toppled over, and replaced by other residents. Surprisingly, every time someone tried to pull Fauzan's body, they seemed to be pushed and fell away from Fauzan. 

"I don't think he was late anymore. Why did it come out!"

"Come, help!" 

They finally came closer and helped. While continuing to call Fauzan's name, so that their friend was also aware of what was being done. Dana, Hani, Blendoz, and Hana try to pull Fauzan's body. Even they seemed to expend all their energy but Fauzan just remained silent at all.

"You're using energy, right? Shoot pull, later people's children can be modar!" peekik Hana's.

"Dodol, you don't see I've made gini! This is so strong, kid!" sahut Blendoz.

"Crazy! It's a possessed child is not responsible. All sorts of demons can enter!"

Rea felt a heat in her chest. He felt his neck and just remembered that his father's prayer beads were now on his neck. Apparently it was the prayer beads that released the heat and made Rea release it immediately. Whether he got a whisper from where, Rea immediately put the prayer beads on Fauzan's neck. Fauzan immediately screamed in pain. He automatically moved from the body of the young man below and rolled around on the ground like a suffocated person. Everyone could only look at him and not know what to do. 

"Re, how's it going? Ozan's dead, isn't he?" ask Hani ceplas ceplos. Hana directly hit her sister's head softly and glared. "Well, look at yourself. He's in pain."

"Just wait a little while longer, until he is really tired and stops shouting" said Mr. Wiryo.

"Is it okay, sir?"

"It's okay. After all, the thing around his neck is just a bagbih. And tasbih will not kill humans, but will eliminate demons or any creatures that are in that body" explained Mr. Wiryo. 

Hearing Mr. Wiryo's explanation, everyone in the place just kept quiet while continuing to pay attention to Fauzan who was still screaming in pain while continuing to hold his neck. The young man, who had been strangled by Fauzan, had been rescued and was receiving medical treatment. 

After waiting for a few minutes, Fauzan really began to limp, and now it seems - if it has lost a lot of energy. 

"Fainted?" apri asked whispering.

"But his eyes are open."

"But he was. How's it?"

"Sir, Ozan why is that?" Leni looked anxious just like her other friends.

"Oh, fine, sir." Dana deftly helps Fauzan take him away from the market to a simple clinic owned by the village. 

The day has gone up late. Seeing the condition of Fauzan who still did not allow to return that day, they were forced to stay overnight in the village. While waiting for an invitation from the campus that has been contacted before. Fortunately in the village there is already a mobile phone signal network. So that they can give news to their families. 

They finally get an empty house that is often used as a temporary residence or home stay in the village. The house has also been used as a post for KKN students before. The house is also well maintained even though it is not inhabited by residents at all. It is located in the middle of the village, more precisely located among the houses of other villagers, without any hidden impression and away from the crowd. 

The house also had many rooms which were certainly enough for the ten of them. One room is filled by two people, because the available beds are single-sized on the right and left side of the room. In the middle, between the two beds, there was a study table with a study lamp. Two small cabinets are also in each room. They feel this is the most comfortable place while in Borneo.

At least they no longer need to sleep inside the tent. Or being in an empty house that has terrible air. The house provided by Mr. Wiryo is very comfortable. Although the house is still in the category of simple house, but they do not feel fear or anxiety when in a new place. Although the house is made of wood but the countryside is closely attached to the atmosphere that exists now.

They automatically begin to enter their rooms. One room contains 2 people. No one wants to sleep with Fauzan. Hana sleeps with Hani, her twin sister. While Dana is with Blendoz.

Rea and Leni, then Apri and Ita. Remaining Diah, who does not have a one-room couple. But he didn't get dizzy. He said he would sleep alone. His friends are not in the way. Because of all of them, Diah was one of the bravest.

Some mothers come by bringing a variety of dishes that are put into the bushel of food.

"Eat first, later if you need something just say it. Our house is close. My house is next door, Miss Parmi's house is in front of you. So do not hesitate if there is something you need," said Bu Tuti kindly.

"Good, Mom. Thank you in advance. Sorry if we keep bothering."

"Ah, no bother at all. Yes, we'll excuse you first. Food finished. Hope you like our cooking."

" Most certainly ma'am. Thanks again."

They began to open the food that had just been sent by the next-door neighbor. Ala cuisine is very typical with a rural atmosphere. Makes them remember their hometown.

" usually if I go to grandma's house there must be this menu at home" said Rea when heading to a vegetable stir-fry leaves that she always ate at her grandmother's house.

"Eh, same. But if at my grandparents' house, these fern vegetables are cooked using coconut milk sauce. Banget delicious," said Apri who seemed enthusiastic about their dinner menu this time.

"Eh, is Ozan up yet?"

"oh yeah."

" Take a look there. Who knows, he's conscious. Keep starving."

"or the confusion of arriving he was already in a comfortable room."

They all looked at each other, waiting for one of them to move on to carry out what they were talking about.

finally, Dana who from her seat woke up bored so that she could come to dinner with them. Until Fauzan's room is left open, Dana sees that Fauzan is still asleep. He did not have the heart to wake Fauzan. Finally the funds returned to the dining room. "just aja first time yes. Poor thing. Maybe he's a soybean."

" Ayeah right. Let it go first. We'll feed tomorrow."

Tonight they had a quiet and happy dinner. They could sleep soundly tonight without having to patrol or the sudden fear of an attack from a stranger or the undead. After eating they decided to go to their respective rooms in order to rest. Tired body makes them want to rest immediately in order to wake up in a fitter and fresher state.

Rea and Leni were in bed. The room lights were also extinguished. They both could not sleep in the bright lights.

"Re, didn't your dad say anything yesterday when we got here?" leni asked Rea to think, What did that friend mean.

" what did you say, which one do you mean?"

" about the chicken egg. I'm sure your father knows who sent me to. Rea, try you later ask. I'm really curious about people who want to harm me as much as my family."

"Hm. Okay, tomorrow if I see you, I'll ask ya. But I don't promise I'll get the answer you want. Because my father if asked such things would not answer. Smile at most, and say, If I don't need to know who it is. Our reaction to that person will be other. Dad always told me, or the people who've been asking for help with him, to be airy and forgive others."

"Well, so I don't know who dong is?"

" i'm sure one day I'll be found out. People who have bad intentions like us, even if he is our closest person or even our own family, surely their attitude will look different. I'm sure you can feel it."

"Hm yes. Let's see it when we get home."

"Yes, now we sleep. Tomorrow we'll go home. I hope the invitation doesn't have any more obstacles."

"Aamiin's."

The two girls immediately closed their eyes after offering prayers. They try to fall asleep quickly. To meet in the morning and go home.

Diah, unpack her bag. She took the makeup kit she had brought from home "I have to wear a mask tonight before going to bed. Later here the skin is charred and dry," he murmured to speak for himself.

He was wearing a bando on his head. Sit at the study table while reflecting and preparing a bowl of masks. Now he began to concoct a mask that he had just bought a few days before going to the land of Borneo.

While busy concocting the mask, Diah suddenly felt a shadow passing behind him. He who had deliberately not closed the door of the room, was confused and curious at the figure that had just passed in front of his room. So he went to check on who had just passed. It's just that no one was found outside. Precisely the middle room as well as the living room looked quiet. He sharpened his hearing, trying to figure out if there was any sound that might be around him. The rooms of his friends, already dark, indicated that they were all asleep. Some rooms are closed and some rooms are left open so that air can enter the room and the heat will be reduced. Diah, who was sure that she had found nothing outside, finally went back inside the room. He closed the door because he felt bad about the situation tonight. Especially knowing that all his friends are asleep. Unfortunately, Diah is not yet sleepy and can not sleep if in a new place like now.

Just as she closed the door of the room, and was about to sit back at the study table, Diah heard footsteps from outside. Diah's heart started beating faster than usual. Several times he experienced mystical events, making him become more alert and a little scared than usual. It's just that Diah still dares to face it. Now Diah intends to open the door again to satisfy his curiosity. Because the sound of the footsteps was quite clear. But once he got behind the door and almost opened it, Diah suddenly became doubtful. After thinking for a while, He decided to peek out of the keyhole. Diah's down parallel to the keyhole. He could see the conditions outside. Now he began to see the shadow passing by. When observed carefully, Iya can only see clearly that the shadow figure he saw was none other than Fauzan. Fauzan walked in front of his room pacing back and forth. His eyes were empty. Makes Diah shudder in horror.

" don't let him tuck in again!" inner Diah.

Diah started to panic a bit, because she was alone at the moment, and her friends were in another room. The first thing Diah did, was to keep peeking and paying attention to Fauzan's movements.

After being observed continuously, Fauzan stopped at the door of Diah's room. Diah gulped, and began to move her hands to hold the door. Fauzan, who was standing with his back to the door of his room, suddenly turned around, and immediately looked at Diah who was also staring at him. Diah surprised. With a quick movement Fauzan hit the door. Fortunately, he was prepared for the bad possibility. Many times Fauzan tried to break down the door of Diah's room.

With great difficulty Diah tried to reach Grendel for the door above him. Keep trying to keep the door from opening.

"Please!" diah screamed with a very loud voice. Fauzan did not give up and continued to break down the door. Diah's getting freaked out. And now she even cries. Hope his friends wake up and help him from Fauzan's attack.

But unfortunately, this commotion was not heard until the other room.they just kept sleeping soundly even the snoring sound began to sound unpretentious. Diah's really scared right now. He kept screaming for help while trying to hold the door with his body.
