Horror Story
Mount Pulosari Part 1 - #3

"Mira don't daydream. It's on the mountain, danger" Riki resuscitated Mira.

"But, obviously, the cave saw that Dad was there" he pointed towards the bushes.

"Udah Mir's. Let's walk again. It must be just your hallucination" I said.

We go back on our way. In the middle of the climb, Mira asked for a short break. His breathing was breathless, his face was extremely sweaty.

I sat on a large rock while enjoying the soothing scenery. There were large tree trunks and the sound of unpretentious birds with monkeys. Mount Pulosari is indeed a comfortable habitat for monkey colonies. Along the way, I always saw monkeys hanging from tree branches.

After the break, Riki invited us back to continue our journey. He handed out a wooden stick he had just made himself. The stick is useful for helping with climbing.

"About how many hours are we getting to Curug Putri?" my many.

"Udah deket, really. It'll be here soon, too" replied Riki.

"Let's continue the road. We can do it!" Eldi gave encouragement.

Not until half an hour finally we arrived at Curug Putri. The waterfall is not too high, the water is not too heavy. This is a small waterfall, commonly used by climbers to simply wash their faces or fill their drinking water bottles. The depth of the water is only as shallow as possible, so it will not harm the climbers.

When we arrived at Curug Putri, the atmosphere there was quiet. Maybe the other climbers have continued their journey to the crater. There was only one skinny boy whose age might have been only a dozen years old. He brought empty bottles and filled them with Curug Ciputri water.

"That's a water merchant drinking. He will bring a bottle filled with water to the crater to be sold to the climbers" Riki said, pointing at the boy.

We all tasted Curug Ciputri water, it felt very fresh. I've never drank that fresh water. Eldi and Mira play water, they play with each other, while Riki is busy taking pictures using his HP camera.

"Cautiously," I saw him slip and fall into the water. I saw his pants wet.

"Dear one," said Mira to Eldi.

Not apologizing, Eldi laughed.

"Mir..," I was surprised by what I saw.

"Yes Ri?"

"Lu mens?" my many. There is blood flowing on the surface of the water.

"God! Gua doesn't realize that mens, that's not it," Mira wakes up, she's freaking out."

"Where is Rik?" ask Eldi.

"It's okay. The important thing is to pray a lot" said Riki. He then told us to continue our journey to the crater.

A moment before we left the Princess Curug, there was a roar from the sky. I don't know what the sound is, greeted by a wind that blows hard against the trees. We all closed our eyes because of the many dry leaves and dust flying.

When she opened her eyes again, Mira disappeared somewhere.

We panicked and went back down to Curug Ciputri, calling Mira.

"Rik! Mira where Rik is!" Eldi pulled Riki's shirt.

"Where is Riki?" he continued without giving Riki a chance to talk.

"What's this?" an old man emerged from the path, he was wearing black clothes and black pants on his feet, he was also wearing a blankon.

"My girlfriend's sister is missing, sir," Eldi approached the man.

"Who's that, Rik?" my many.

"He's Mr. Jaro, this mountain pigtail," he replied as he approached the old man. Riki then regretted it.

"What has your boyfriend done at Curug?" tanyakanya.

Eldi explained the incident. Mr. Jaro shook his head.

He walked closer to the waterfall, in front of the waterfall he stood while raising his hands to the sky. I don't know what he's doing. Not long after, he came back to us.

"Your friends are fine. He made a fatal mistake, there's a ritual you have to do if you want him back."

"What is that, sir?" ask Eldi.

"If you want to come with me," he stepped on the path to the crater. We followed him from behind.

"Is he trustworthy?" I whispered in Riki's ear.

"Just calm down, he's a good guy. He's the mountain's caretaker," Riki fixed the position of his glasses, his arm patting me on the shoulder. He tried to calm the panic.

I do not know where Mr. Jaro will take us, said Riki this is no longer the path to the crater. Mr. Jaro had to slash through the wild grass that was blocking the way. The more into the forest, the more terrifying it became.

Seriate.
