Sapphire City's
Chapter 31: The Doll
The atmosphere of the campus is getting smothering, the hairs in the sky from various angles suddenly just fold to form a decorative cloth like in the invitation. Some glass just broke every time they passed. But there are 1 thing that makes them confused, where the figure of the matis is located. If you walk up and then laugh again just because looking for the figure of a little girl and doll is just a waste of time. It occurred to Mirna to lure him with sapphire gems, because somehow when he was held captive even though weapons and communication tools were stripped but the bag containing sapphire gems was not brought at all, whether it's a weapon or not but certainly if it is intentionally then fishing matis out with sapphire gems will not produce any results.
There is no idea whatsoever that occurred to them all to provoke matis other than looking all the floors of the campus building.if you have to split again, Luca refused firmly, refusing, because Judah was wounded in his arms because he was stabbed (by a possessed Reza). So it would be a big problem for Judah himself with such a condition.
A crazy and strange idea just came out of Yuda's mind, though he wasn't sure his friends would agree.
“ide what Yud?” Ask Luca.
“ayo main plot umpet” reply Yuda.
Luca and Reza are stunned, Mirna looks at Judah madly.
“I know it's a strange idea, but when I was chased. It feels like the matis wants to play with me”
The expressions of his friends remained unchanged.
“oh come on my serious say nih” Yuda trying to convince his friends “si matis it, every time he chased me, he was a rich kid who was looking for his friend who hid”
His friends are still silent.
“aduh hear yes, when he was chasing me and when I was hiding, he said I was hard to find and then just left”
In the end Mirna sighed “so you mean all this time the matis was just playing around with us so?”
Yuda nodded quickly.
Mirna raised her hand, no longer being able to pin down any other ideas other than Judah. They're out of sense.
The first person to commit to counting was Judah.
“Your time!” mirna protests.
“kan me who has an idea, surely I should count” said Yuda defended himself.
Mirna shook her head “your hand was hurt that way, the knife was still stuck”
“honestly you are so excited about it” said Yuda “lantas who wants?”
No one volunteered. Mirna was weighing. Mirna glanced at Reza, the young man immediately shook his head quickly, it seemed like he was reluctant to deal with the matis again after the previous case. But if Luca were to count, they would be like giving a lamb to a tiger, for Luca had stepped on Matis' side. In the end, it was Mirn who had to count.
“so I ya” Mirna's face pouted out.
“no more mba matching” said Luca.
Mirna asked for Yuda's blade just in case, she also ordered her friends to hide in a place not far from her location. But whatever Mirna's going to do they also have to be ready on the spot.
“I count to 10 huh?” Mirna was closing her eyes to the wall.
“don't 20 aja” says Reza.
The first roar, the three youths immediately hid. They do not need to negotiate where they will hide. Because this has to be really like a game of hide and seek so their location is hiding only they know.
“ten”
There was still the sound of people running.
“eleven, twelve, thirteen”
Hihihihihi.
Can't stop, keep counting, Mirna keep counting.
“fourteen, fifteen, sixteen”
There were no footsteps, they were all hiding.
“seventeen, eighteen, Nineteen, twenty” Mirna sigh “ready or not I will look for”
Mirna turned her body.
“eehhh”
He wanted to immediately pretend to look, but in front of him stood a little girl. The same girl whose shadow appeared while possessing Reza. The little girl stood up while holding a doll.
Ehehehe abdi ketauan[1]
All in all Mirna's body was tense, she really looked like a little girl in general, but her face was covered in hair bangs.
“means kankeu, sim kuring nu counting[2]” says Mirna slowly.
Hehehe abdi recipe counting[3]
Mirna went forward intending to find her other friends. He walked past the matis. Mirna quickly turned her back, she pulled out a dagger from behind her shirt and directly stabbed the doll that the matis had brought. Mirna's friends hid and watched from a distance show themselves with full weapons.
The matis was surprised that his puppet had been pierced, he retreated slowly while sobbing.
Neng Yuyu, hik Neng Yuyu, NENG YUYUUUUUUUUUU!
The next thing that happened to the flashlight that Yuda and Luca brought suddenly broke, and the whole place became completely dark. Not so long the lights in the ceiling light up dimly.
Their gaze was fixed on the matis figure that had now disappeared, leaving several strands of black hair cut off.
Mirna muttering hair strands “ini not original doll”
“plus angry dia” comments Luca feeling he's already not good.
Judah and Reza both glanced at the ceiling, not a single hair adorning the ceiling as usual.
“there is no” Yuda said.
“hairs that are usually in the sky are gone” added Reza.
Mirna and Luca saw the ceiling. They were surprised, the whole ceiling was clean without a single hair. Strange things they never even imagined. Though previously these hairs become a threat if the matis is on this floor. But now that Mirna had pierced the Neng Yuyu doll, the black hairs had disappeared. The subtleties of the question mark are implied in Judah. Actually what's going on.
AAAAAAAARR!HHHH!!!
The sound of screaming followed the floor shaking. He was angry, the matis was really angry. His anger must have no longer subsided.
“hei see” Luca points the steps to the next floor.
A collection of black hair tied together into a large braid the size of a large anaconda snake crept towards the top floor. Such as real ‘feed’ for Yuda and others, or more obvious ‘directly’
“ayo follow” says Mirna.
As per Mirna's instructions. Judah, Luca and Reza follow their leader down every step of the ladder through which a giant hair bond passes. Armed with a weapon without a flashlight (the roof is destroyed, but the lights are all lit dimly). Every floor passed, not a single strand of hair adorned the ceiling as usual, except for the braid tie hair on the steps. The sign did not turn at all. When they arrived on the 10th floor, the unimaginable sight was before the eyes of Judah and all.
...***...
Walls, floors, ceilings, even windows and doors were covered in black hair. The red light of the lamp is shrinking every corner of the place. Adding to the unstoppable spooky impression of this floor. Unimaginable though the floors before each strand of hair only haunts most in the ceiling, but now the entire 10th floor is filled with hair without exception.
“nothing if stepped on?” Ask Yuda.
Luca was the first to step on the hair group, there was no reaction, only a strange impression felt all over his body.
“I so miss the carpet and slippery floor” said Luca.
This place really has become a nest that is so scary even if you want to find a way out, there are only 1. The stairs they passed by, nothing else. Other stairs (including stairs to the top) are no longer present. Cutting or opening every strand of hair was useless, they were so hard and heavy like a cloth that weighed tens of tons.
Not too far they're going. In front of them was a red glow of lights panned down, dim but striking. There's someone under the beam of light. He stood beside the chair facing backwards. The matis girl, she laughed, her laughter echoed, anyone could hear her laughter so clearly.
Yuda's gaze was fixed on the matis side chair. There was no one sitting on the chair, but there were strands of hair darting down from the chair, black hair, just like the hair all over the place. Yuda's feeling was uneasy, he was so tense that he was silent like a statue. Not only did he feel it, his other friends were just as tense. They can guess who is behind the chair, especially the hairs that they have seen from the beginning enter the campus from the chair.
A set of hair down, pushing the legs of the chair until it rotates 180 degrees. There was no one sitting on that chair, but there was nothing they could have imagined. Neng Yuyu's puppet, sitting so sweetly on the chair, his hair was so long that it was longer than what Yuda had seen. The length can be imagined, into a collection of hair under the legs of the chair. All the hair above, the walls, the floor were Neng Yuyu's hair, and Neng Yuyu before them was the real figure of Neng Yuyu.
The doll was initially smiling, no one could see the eyes of the doll as it was covered in bangs of her hair. But from behind that smile, snapping teeth like the fangs of carnivorous animals he showed off. The hair from behind Neng Yuyu's chair attacked, Mirna she slashed the hair with her own sword. Yuda and Reza shot every hair, Luca and Mirna slashed, but it didn't pay off. The more they cut and shoot, the more the hairs recombine. Even too many were cut, until the hairs wriggled like worms, increasing the fourth leg of the frontline.
They were increasingly urged, willing to fight all the way from the beginning of this floor was their main nest.
Now, the hairworms crept up the body, wrapping around the bottom of the foot like a cocoon. Little by little, the hair grabbing their hands rendered them helplessly holding their own weapons.
The matis girl, walking slowly towards Yuda, grabbed onto Yuda's face.
Akang maen - yu?[4]
Yuda felt his body like it was about to be controlled, this girl he also had the ability like a Neng Yuyu puppet. He must be conscious, conscious, conscious, must not falter, if not, he will be a puppet slave of these matis. But, the power of the matis was so strong, even the two hands of Judah were so trembling from trying to resist.
DUAARR!
Yuda felt his body return. He's liberated. Matis' body lay before him. Yuda glanced at his side. That's Reza. Though his hand had been wrapped in hair but he could still grab the weapon himself.
“See!” shout Mirna.
Doll Neng Yuyu, her facial expression changed, angry, behind the bangs two blood oozing down.
AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRHRHHHHHHH!!!!!
The black cocoons came apart, turned into bundles of rope and tied the four front lines up into the sky. Both of Reza's hands were tied together, Luca's right and left legs were pulled up, one of Yuda's hands was pulled, but Mirna was the worst. His neck is the one that is stuck. This is the most serious, the three young people looked at Mirna helplessly, saw their friend bound while both hands thrashed trying to untie the bond…..
Reza glanced at the other side of the matis chair, there was a round object nearby.
“pssst Yud” call Reza “take this”
Yuda glanced at Reza quickly, the young man had four weapons that he had been holding even though both hands were tied together up, and he was holding them, whether he is observant or anything even in this condition, he still had time to secure the weapon in hand. One of Judah's free hands managed to catch Reza's weapon, despite being ill (due to a stab wound). The young man also told Yuda that he had to shoot at a target near the doll chair. There's a round object near the chair, it's a grenade!.
The grenade must have been taken when Matis accidentally fell and braised a collection of hair, then when the hair was pulled to the 10th floor, the grenade was also pulled.
His hands were so heavy, even just holding the top of the rifle, he also had enough trouble touching his trigger while enduring the pain of his own injuries, but, he was also quite troubled, only he can hold a weapon, slowly he pointed his weapon at the target of the shoot. The puppet Yuyu realized Yuda was about to shoot, he shouted, the bond in one of his hands getting stronger even making him in pain. Just then Yuda pulled the trigger, the sound of bullets coming out of the rifle. The puppet Yuyu instantly made a shield to protect himself, but he was wrong, the target of Yuda was a grenade nearby. Bullets hit the target, an explosion occurs, followed by Yuda and his friends who are instantly free from the hair-bonding snares of Yuyu dolls.
The explosion created a large hole through, the chair and its dolls were destroyed. Yuda quickly checked Mirna's condition, trying to hold the knot in her neck.
“Mir...Mir.Myrna!” yuda shouted, he grabbed Mirna's body.
Reza checked the girl “dia passed out, definitely due to asphyxiation”
“at least he's fine” said Yuda.
Luca stood staring at the place that was the last figure of the matis doll, there was not a single one left, the hairs had stopped moving.
“kita...” Luca said in disbelief “managed to beat A” level matis
“iya, matis it has lost” said Reza.
...***...
Yuda sits in the campus lobby, while backup teams treat wounds on his arm. He did not think, as long as they were trapped in the campus, the backup team had arrived at the campus location, just they could not enter because the door was locked by a collection of hair.
One backup team explained that they were sent after communication between the headquarters and the Mirna frontline team was cut off. Lia immediately sent a backup team of 10 people to help the location. But when they got there, they couldn't go inside. The hair locked the door from the inside. As they tried to enter through the basement, the basement doors were both locked. Until the sound of an explosion from the antas floor, then there the hairs that lock the door suddenly detached.
From here, the backup team ran down each floor, until they found Yuda and his friends on the 10th floor. Yuda and Mirna are under the kelobby to be treated while Luca and Reza are assisted by several backup teams looking for the location of the empty gem.
Judah's arm was finished being given first aid, his knife was also removed (if sick from being given alcohol water), but after returning to the camp, the knife was removed, juda's hands were again given full treatment.
“how are you?” Mirna stood in front of Yuda, she was already conscious of her stupor.
“more alright, you are aware it turns”
Mirna sat beside Yuda “iya, they gave me an oxygen tube, yes you know myself I was almost out of breath”
“honestly, from all missions. This one is horrified” said Yuda.
“ini is still not how much, there are still more dangerous out there” said Mirna.
“like...”
One of the backup teams suddenly ran into the lobby from outside. He told everyone to hide. At first Yuda was confused why he suddenly hid because there was matis, let alone a backup team in a lobby quite a lot. One of the backup teams called Luca and Reza's team to hide.
“actually what's up?” Ask Yuda.
“ada matis Independen” replied one of the backup team.
Yuda surprised. During this time he was always faced with territorial matis, never had he seen the figure of Independent matis.
Mirna immediately pulled Yuda, to hide together from behind the back wall, near her there were also several backup teams. No one of them wanted to hide in another place, some of their faces were also so pale as to have seen the figure of the matis.
Dukkks
DUuukk
Suddenly the floor under Judah shook with a sound like footsteps!
His voice was getting closer and louder, the tremors felt very real under Judah's feet like a small earthquake. Yuda and Mirna peeked out from behind the wall.
Big feet along the sedan car down just like that from the sky, making the cars around jump. The giant-like figure continued to step and step towards the side of the road was measured.
With a little courage Mirna and Yuda settles forward, even though it was intercepted by the backup team, but they both want to see firsthand the giant independent matis figure. slowly they walked towards the window wall. While they were craving the giant figure had walked away from the campus building.
Judah and Mirna had already reached the glass wall, but the matis had already moved away. The matis-looking figure only wore tattered shorts bare-chested. This made Judah think of a children's fairy tale, a fairy tale he had always read as a child, will a girl go from the house of her parents (parents she told him to go) to avoid the giant who was about to eat it, when chased by giants. The girl was armed with a gift package from her parents. One of the parcels thrown turned into mud and sucked a giant. The girl named cucumber mas and the giant named.
“buto ijo” says Yuda.
Mirna, who heard the words of Judah, immediately saw the giant figure, and she was already lost by the darkness of the night, but if it can be concluded there is a possibility that the giant is buto ijo from the fairy tale cucumber mas. Mirna is not out of mind the matis they will face, independent matis is the figure of buto ijo in children's fairy tales.[]
