His adoptive mother Alka was very angry to see that, because the man was the one who had helped bury his adoptive father Alka, while the other man looked busy whispering to the citizens, as he was the one who had been helping to bury his adoptive father Alka, the two men who were being treated by coffee from the hand of their adoptive mother Alka that afternoon, how could she now shout for Alka to be burned!
“I beg you, Alka is only a child, she is a good child, she is a friendly, obedient child, never once did she trouble me and my husband. What happened to my husband and the tenter was an accident that might happen in another village, I beg you to think real. This child is only five years old and can do such a heinous thing.” His adoptive mother Alka prostrated so that all the citizens holding torches would let them go.
Then he continued his plea.
“We will leave now, we will leave this village, I beg you, let us go.”
“Don't let him go! don't let him get away, I'll witness, the boy doesn't cry when his father dies from lightning, the boy always talks to himself. He must have been talking to a demon who might have been his father. He's a son of the devil!” A woman shouted and made everyone even more want to burn Alka.
“Ka-you! you are my servant, you are our confidant, why are you ...”
“Listen! You heard, didn't you? I'm their confidant, I'm always beside the two of them, so I know the truth, he didn't cry when his father died, wasn't afraid when the tenter was struck by lightning, he said, even he can talk to the devil, I told you, the boy must be burned! Burn him, burn!”
“Tega you! you should have looked after us, I entertained you and your family all this time, because Alka the land in your yard is fertile, because Alka you and your family live well, why are you now this evil?” His adoptive mother Alka was very desperate and disappointed, she did not fear the slightest threat to everyone, which she feared was that Alka had gone bad.
“Bo-lie!” there was a doubtful tone in the servant's words, obviously he trembled when reminded of all the kindness that the Alka family had done to him. But money made him lose his conscience.
Alka's mother pulls Alka back inside the house, she closes the door and pushes the heaviest table alone to hold the door.
But due to the weight, the table did not move in the slightest, while it sounded people started to noise, some wanted to continue burning Alka, some wanted to not continue.
Alka's mother was still trying to push the table to hold the door, it was heavy, when she was almost desperate, the table was moving, lighter than before, her mother Alka was relieved, but when she realized that Alka was pulling the table from her branch, her mother closed her eyes as a sign, that she actually knew, Alka was not an ordinary person. But, he strongly refused that Alka was a descendant of the demons.
“The table has blocked the door, the door was broken but did not manage to open because the table was made of teak wood which is very thick and heavy, at least the door can hold people to enter.
“Come we have to go from the back door, we run to the forest Nak.”
“Bu, from now on we part ways.”
His mother knew that Alka was intelligent, but this remark was too mature for a child of her age.
“Don't you talk carelessly, even if it's true that you're a child of the devil, I'll never let you go, I don't care, I'm your mother, it will always be, when I find you, when I find you, until I exhale my last breath.”
“Mother, I love you, dad says I have to leave you.”
“No, you're wrong! why am I taking you away tonight, because last night I dreamed of meeting your father, in that dream he said that, I should go take you, so the purpose of the word go and mother, is, not to leave my mother, but to go with my mother. You're wrong son, I have to protect you, that's what your father wants and I'll do it.”
Alka looked at her mother she hesitated, but it made sense.
“Denga is fine, because they have accused us, then you are no longer forbidden to show your ability, now if it is too dangerous for you, then you must fight, then you must fight, I allowed you to fight them to protect yourself.”
“Mother forgive me, forgive me.” Alka hugged her mother and cried.
After they went through the back door through the yard, there were some people who were aware and chased them into the backyard, Alka and her mother continued to run fast. Her mother felt that it was not her who pulled Alka to run, but Alka who pulled her body to run, so her steps were lighter.
Alka and her mother ran towards the big road after penetrating the plantation of other residents from their yard, they felt they could almost escape from the citizens who were angry with the slander.
“Come Nak, hurry Nak, we have to leave this village immediately.” Alka and her mother ran until they reached the big road, but when they arrived at the big road, a car came out of nowhere and directly hit them both, Alka and her mother slammed.
They were both still alive, but .. it was hard to move because of the collision.
The dark slowly turned faint, then bright.
Alka saw her mother begin to wake up.
“Alka! Alka!” Her mother screamed, she couldn't move, her hands tied.
“I'm here Bu.” Alka shouted, she was beside her mother with a distance of one step.
They were transported back to their home.
Alka was tied to a bench just like her mother. Their legs, hands and bodies were tied, if the mother wore a rapia rope, while Alka used a chain, the child would be tortured later.
Residents gathered around the two of them, the child and mother who had no blood relation was arrested for being accused of having witchcraft which caused the village to be re-exposed to misfortune.
In fact, what they do is like an offering to the devil, like wanting to subvert a five-year-old child.
“We will burn this child.” One man came near the two of them who were bound.
“Pak ... Mr. Kades.” Alka's mother cried, she realized, that this was her act, the two people who had helped the burial were two people sent by Mr. Kades and also at the same time who shouted loudly about burning Alka.
“I have to make this village prosperous again, everyone agreed to punish the source of the misfortune of this village, hence, this demon child must be exterminated.”
“It seems that Alka said, that the saying in our country is really very good. The wolf in sheep's clothing, that's a proper nickname for you, you said you'd protect us, but you're the one who caused all this, right? you killed my husband too?!” Alka's mother was hysterical, Alka heard that she immediately saw Mr. Kades with an angry look, her anger peaking.
“See, this woman has been brainwashed by a five-year-old, if not a child of the devil, what is the proper nickname for this child? I've told you, that I even had an accident to help take care of his father's body, all the way from the location of his father's lightning strike, he didn't cry one bit, he said, this boy really doesn't care even if he kills the man he calls father.
Do you think he would have mercy on you? He'll finish you off as soon as he gets a chance!” Mr. Kades now provoked everyone to carry out his plan, he wanted Alka to be burned alive.
“Burn! burn the boy!”
The other man came forward, he carried the kerosene jerrycan and flushed Alka's body with the oil. Alka was undaunted, she stared intently at the man who was flushing her with the earth's minya jerry cans.
“You killed my father didn't you?” tanyakanya. He asked the man, his face very much he remembered as the one who helped bury his father a few days ago.
The man leaned over and whispered something, so that everyone could not hear him.
“Yes, I burned your father's body, you know his last request? he begged me to let you go,” he whispered.
Alka's heart was hot, her heart was hurting, she imagined how much her father's body was burning.
“I swear, you will feel the same way, as my father felt!” Alka yelling.
“He threatened me, this son of the devil threatened me,” the man who killed his adoptive father Alka was back to slander Alka, “You heard right, he said he would make me feel what his father felt, he said, he's gonna send lightning bolts to grab me, like he did to his father. We must quickly burn it, otherwise, he will make us all die!” The man pretended to be frightened, while facing the residents, but when facing Alka he smiled evilly.
Alka looked at him closely, he was considering, what steps he should take but did not risk harming other stupid residents, the mistake of all residents is, they are stupid, they are stupid, gulp down what Mr. Kades' men say.
Stupid people are ingrained in this village, how easy it is to make them hate and like something. Things that benefit them of course.
As Alka was busy thinking about how to escape, suddenly a resident threw his torch at Alka, just then, her mother dropped herself to the side, so that his body pushed the chair and also Alka's body from the fire throw, Alka survived, but .. his mother did not, the torch hit her mother's face right, the fire struck quickly as his mother fell right in a puddle of oil, while Alka's legs managed to fall in a safe place. Just like what her mother wanted, she wanted her son to avoid the fire, what she did was not in vain.
Alka survived because of the body of her adoptive mother who accidentally dropped her sideways, her body was bound and could not escape from the bench, but she was still able to knock herself down.
Alka hysterically cried to see her mother's face burned, the fire spread throughout her mother's body, no one helped, all the residents were silent, some were scared, some were staring blankly, some were sorry, some were sorry, but late, the faces will feel the same heat, as his mother felt.
Alka already had no one at this time, her mother who was still moving, now did not move at all, Alka who was still hysterical and begged for help to be silent, her face became cold, her face became cold, it was so cold that the tears suddenly stopped, she knew, now she was completely unwilling to control herself anymore.
Alka tried with all her might to untie the chain in her body, she used all the strength left from her body to remove the chain, one by one the chains began to come off. Residents who were still shocked by the burning of Alka's mother, did not notice that Alka almost released her body from the bondage.
The moment the chain link broke, Alka stood up, all startled. Aka standing right beside her burning mother, Alka tried to put out the fire on her mother's body with her hands, she did not cry at all.
“You said I'm a demon?” alka's voice turned extremely heavy, her voice was exactly like that of a possessed child, her voice was extremely heavy and like that of an echo.
Residents retreated, they were afraid and hesitated to leave Mr. Kades, two men of his men and the servant rash Alka who was his caretaker first.
“I told you, that kid is a devil!” Mr. Kades tries to re-convince the citizens to stick to the plan, which is to burn Alka.
“Yes, I am indeed a demon, I was born from the womb of a human and endowed with a very scary forest genie! I'll make you all pay for my grudge, for daring to touch my family.” Alka's voice was still heavy and very frightening, her face was also slowly changing, growing scales on her face that, scales that made everyone become convinced, that Alka was indeed not an ordinary human.
Alka, who had put out the fire in her mother's body, raised her mother's body which was still hot because of the fire. All the residents who saw him began to hysterical, because the five-year-old boy was strong enough to lift his mother alone and withhold the heat of fire from his mother's body.
Alka put her mother's body in the yard, the yard they used to hang out, feed and joke, Alka looked at her mother.
“Mother, you told me, if they're dangerous, I can use retaliating, right? then I'll repay them as you and dad feel, I love you Mom.” Alka kissed her mother's charred face, she turned around.
All the citizens retreated again in fear, as Alka's body had partially turned scaly, her voice also getting heavier.
“Burn him or her who will burn us!” Mr. Kades shouted, two of his men came forward and were about to burn Alka, one holding a kerosene jerrycan, the other holding a torch.
They were both preparing to burn Alka, but not ready to throw the oil and fire, Alka had already run and stood right in front of these two men, Alka holding her oil jerrycan and torch with both hands, her leg ... floating! The two men saw it take off what they were trying to run, but too late, Alka doused them with kerosene and set them on fire in seconds, the atmosphere became violent, everyone saw it instantly running around in all directions, they knew, Alka really had her doormat or indeed she was the demon.
Alka was aiming one by one the villagers, she was targeting, no one would escape.
