The Van Til House: STRAF SABBAT
The Chapiter 73

BRUK!

Early's body instantly collapsed on the floor and a red mist gushed out from his wound.

Everyone froze watching the scene, but none of them could see the fog except Magisna and Pak Isa, too.

Suzy stepped closer towards Magisna and bowed looking at Dini's body.

Su Si jumped around Suzy while giggling.

Magisna pulled her body and leaned her back against the wall while sighing in relief.

"Can anyone help me?" Mr. Isa interrupted.

Everyone turned to the man.

Magisna.

Dusk draped his arms around the headmaster's neck with a menacing expression.

Magisna jumped off the floor and rushed towards Pak Isa.

Dusk swung his free arm and immediately Magisna was thrown backwards.

Magisna groaned in frustration.

"Take him off!" suzy's orders at Dusk.

Dusk snorted and grinned. Ignoring the girl's warning.

"You don't want to hear me?" Suzy raised next to her eyebrows and bowed, leaning her body towards Dusk, while her hands crossed behind her body.

Dusk does not budge.

"What if this one?" Suzy suddenly pulled back her body and straightened it. Then I glanced back.

Instantly the entire room shook and rumbled. The wind blew fiercely from the end of the hallway and the entire Doolhof was suddenly brightly lit.

Magisna's entire body was like being stung by a stream of electricity.

Pak Isa squealed and Dusk fell backward.

All the bodies of Magisna and Pak Isa jerked simultaneously. Then something popped out of the backs of the two.

The entire room froze with eyes and mouth rounded.

Two men appeared behind Magisna and Pak Isa.

Everyone stared at the two men.

The man who came out of Magisna's body wore a single-footed robe, parallel to the length of his shiny black hair. It was as if her straight hair was her robe.

It's galang!

While the man who came out of the body Pak Isa wore a Dutch army model striped clothes, complete with knee-length leather shoes. Her hair was a copper blonde and her pair of eyes were green.

Leo!

Magisna and Pak Isa fell down. But not losing consciousness. Both of them shivered and raised their deathly pale faces.

Something slashed as fast as lightning from the end of the passageway, throwing down a terrifying gale.

Everyone hold their breath. No exception Magisna and Pak Isa.

Novi's body suddenly fell down beside Magisna.

Everyone stuttered to see Novi suddenly collapsing.

The orange soul was flung out, blown away by the wind and blinding light that was getting closer.

A second later, the pitch-black shadow stopped not far from them. The whole place was suddenly frozen. Time seemed to be at a standstill and locked when the dark shadow reached the middle of them.

Magisna blinked and squinted his eyes to sharpen his vision.

A dark-robed woman, complete with an equally dark head sheath, holding the body of a short-haired girl in an SMU uniform, jumped down from the back of a giant black panther.

Magisna was flabbergasted and held her breath.

The giant panther gradually transformed into a shiny black long-haired man, with a cloak and head sheath of color, kneeling at the woman's side. And when the man raised his face, time seemed to come to a standstill.

The whole place is frozen.

Magisna and Pak Isa glanced at each other with astonished expressions.

The mysterious woman stepped slowly closer to Dini's unconscious body, then placed the woman in her lap over the girl's body.

He restored the soul of Dini! Magisna.

A moment later, the woman lowered her head sheath in front of Magisna. His movements were as light as the wind. And then the whole place froze again.

Magisna. The woman's face is like Suzy. Exactly the same, it only shines more like a ghostly body.

For a long time, no one moved. Everything was frozen between amazement and fear.

The woman approached Papa Tibi and pulled him up. Then he leaned over and kissed the back of his hand.

Magisna was confused.

"Build up all" the woman commanded everyone.

Everyone pulled up his body almost simultaneously, but not a single one dared to raise his face to look at the woman.

Suzy slid into the wall, joining Ais and Agustin. The two men did not realize it.

Five panthers trapped in a dead-end alley came out to the mysterious couple and swarmed them like children who had just found their parents.

Su Si hopped happily around them while giggling.

The handsome man in dark robes glare like a giant beetle had crossed his hands in front of his chest while bowed and smiled faintly watching the herd of panthers wriggle spoiled around his feet.

They all look happy, Magisna thought.

Who are these two?

The woman stroked each head of the panther with a gentle smile—a warm smile of a mother, and at once all curled up and fell asleep after her head was elated, then transformed into Hendra, Dika, Novi and Alexza… also Magisna.

So who am I really? the cry of Magisna in his heart.

As if he could hear the screams of Magisna's heart, the mysterious robed woman suddenly lifted her face and turned to Magisna.

Magisna was frozen. Helplessly looking back at the woman's sparkling eyes. He immediately turned his face and bowed, observing his other self as well as his friends. They're all asleep now.

"It's just a small part of your soul" the woman's hiss sounded like a flood in the distance.

Magisna gulped. Whatdoes thatmean? inner Magisna.

And once again the woman seemed to be able to hear what Magisna was unable to say. "Your soul is not fully sucked," he whispered softly. "But know you may be dying."

Magisna held her breath.

"But don't worry" the woman continued, smiling warmly. "Because this mess is caused by my children, then I will restore this universe once again."

Instantly Papa Tibi exchanged glances with Ais and Agustin. His third face simultaneously paled.

Magisna looked at them with round eyes and mouth. Then he looked back at the woman with his eyebrows intertwined. Any more? My kids? Whatdoes thatmean? Magisna doesn't understand.

Suddenly the inhumane beautiful man by the woman's side whistled.

Magisna again gasped.

Something was pounding and flapping at the end of the corridor. Then it floated towards the man, and perched on his shoulder.

A golden eagle colored brick red like a strange fog color in the Doolhof.

The eagle glanced towards Magisna.

Magisna then realizes someone is missing from the room.

Twilight!

The Eagle... The Ghost of the Twilight?

"His name is Sambekala" again the dark-robed woman answered the Magisna's concerns. He looked at the eagle as if he were his disappointing son.

"The fog is the ghost of Dusk?" Magisna asked half a screech.

The woman turned back to Magisna. "Yes" he answered, smiling faintly.

"So you're the one who attacked us?" Magisna glared as she pointed her index finger at the eagle.
