RUN
There is an Island

I was speechless, when Wenna's voice sounded trembling. He glanced, trying to avoid eye contact from us. He even blinked quickly, as if trying to hold back something that made his eyes water.

"Why?? Why do you look sad? Did the old question make you feel uncomfortable?" tamusong asked, trying to get closer to Wenna. "She is so, so forgive her for all her mistakes and for her caliphate!" tamusong again.

"Is!! Tamusong thinks this is Lebaran?!" censure me.

Wenna forced a smile, shaking her head. "Nobody makes you sad or uncomfortable. My eyes suddenly water, I can't get in the wind for too long. I'll stay in the water." he said.

Tamusong smiled as he nodded his head. "Oh, so yes. So, can you explain something about this place to us. So, we're not too clumsy like people in a daze here." Tamusong asked, making Wenna nod her head.

"Okay, let's talk at the water's edge, so that I can all soak my body." she asked as she swam with her head unburied into the water. Because when he does, it will not appear at all, he is completely fused in the water.

We followed him, until we reached a large rock whose bottom was submerged in water. Wenna raised her body slightly to the ground, prone like a stranded mermaid. Tamusong and I were sitting on a rock, this place did not make us float too clearly, because it seemed like all the places were dedicated to the residence of ghosts. Even I can touch a stone without exerting the slightest force. It was different when I was at school.

"Okay, what do you want to know about this place? I'll tell you everything I know." said Wenna, making me and Tamusong look at each other. Looks like Wenna's a good ghost. I have the confidence to be able to socialize with other ghosts. Just a few minutes here only me and Tamusong have made friends, especially if you stay here forever, right?? This village will be my friend.

"First, we want to know about the ghost group and its residence. Is there a special dwelling place that distinguishes ghosts from their kind? Like you, who live in the water with your gang, do we also get a similar place?" ask me excited.

Wenna glanced up, long enough, then looked back at me. "Yes, of course. Just like humans, these types of ghosts were like clans. You will be considered a family in that type. There will be one leader of every kind, he is in charge of protecting all his citizens from danger, and if you want to join. And you also occupy a place according to your kind, like a pocong.Your house is near a banana tree, because you really like to be around there."

"A water ghost like me, of course, where he lives in the water. Then kuntilanak, where he lived on top of lush trees. As for you, what kind of ghost are you, huh? A ghost abroad?" wenna asked as she stared fixedly at me.

"I am a kuntilanak, that is Tamusong said. And it seems like I am indeed like that." I said, making Wenna slightly frown on eyebrows.

"Male kuntilanak?? Whoa! I saw him for the first time! Means you're kind of rare in your clan. It looks like it will be accepted right away. But you are a stranger, right? Your face has no faces here at all." said Wenna, again saying such a sentence.

"No! I am only a descendant. I am a native of Bangka, living in Pangkalpinang." I explained, making Wenna nod understandingly while laughing.

"Oh, it deserves to feel like a stranger, it turns out to have the descendants of outsiders anyway. And again, do not easily say where you live while still alive dong, it was explained." he lamented.

"Huh? Explain what?" I'm even a senile hemisphere.

"Eh, Wenna. Speaking of your nickname, what exactly is the reason the Goddess gave it to you. You're also the leader of your kind, what exactly did you do to get it all?" tamusong asked, and I nodded because I agreed with the question he asked.

Wenna was silent for a moment, as she rubbed her wet hair from front to back. "There's actually a lot of things you don't know in this place, and you'll find out if you've lived here for a long time. I don't know if it's okay to tell a new ghost." he said, looking doubtful.

"Because I don't know, so ask. If you know, it's not a question, it's a pleasant-nonsense."

"Hush!!" sis Tamusong flicked her hand to my face to stop talking. "Don't be so disrespectful, remember.we're new ghosts!!" his whisper growled, with eyes that were about to jump out staring at me.

"Alright, then I'll tell you the beginning. A long time ago, about thousands of years ago, this place has been visited by ghosts, because it was made a dumping place by the jinn by humans."

"So, all the jinn who wait in a certain place that is close to humans and is very disturbing, then they will be expelled by smart people."

"Who is a smart man?" my sambar.

"Shaman." said Tamusong.

"Kok a smart guy anyway?" my lament. "Ooh!!" I shouted suddenly, making the two of them gasp. "It's called smart people, because the people who treat it are stupid, right?"

"Hush!!" again Tamusong hissed at me. "Shut your mouth before I slap armpits!!" threateningly, it made me shut my mouth while shaking my head.

"Do you want to continue or not?" wenna asked, looking a little annoyed with the two of us.

"Yes yes, please continue." said Tamusong with an unpleasant face.

"So, the disturbing genie will be expelled by smart people. When they are expelled, they usually negotiate with the ghosts. Ghosts who are expelled of course ask for another place to live, where they want to be expelled if not in a new residence. And finally, the smart people also suggest some places to live, one of which is this island."

"So, on this island for a long time there have been some ghosts that are alienated. And the types are also diverse. At first the ghosts live peacefully, but from some of them, there are those who like to look for because of and pretentious power. They want to be respected for the reason that they have lived in this place longer than others. Of course this brings up debate and discord."

"The ghosts began to fight, collide with power and in the end, came a beautiful ghost with a scarf that he sank on one of his shoulders. He advised the ghosts to make a competition based on their own kind."

"Satan likes to argue unimportant." I said, making Tamusong look at me cynically. "Please, masa' commenting on the story alone should not be!"

"The leaders, assume that they are the most powerful and must be made the main leader on this island. The same thing happened, in doing again a competition to determine who became the leader on this island. A power struggle between leaders ensues."

"After the competition was over, the chosen one was a beautiful woman with a sash on her shoulders. He became the strongest of the strongest. She is a ghost called the Goddess." said Wenna, making both Tamusong and I shudder at her.

"So, the Goddess is the leader of all leaders? That's why he has the power to give titles to other leaders?" I said, concluding what he had explained.

"really. The goddess is the leader, and she is referred to as the ghost who holds this place, or humans often call her, the guardian of this island. So, all cannot resist or oppose his will. He who establishes everything and everything must submit."

"If you don't submit?" ask me.

"Why don't you bow down?" Wenna asked back.

"Can be tired of having to submit constantly, if sometimes walking straight is not allowed?"

"Haaah, you can come back to my world if you babble!" tamusong. "Then, continue Wenna, let's just say this one creature does not exist." added Tamusong, and got a nod from Wenna.

"The point is, you do not make trouble until it reaches the ears of the Goddess. Especially if he gets angry and shows his scary face. No one has ever seen it that way." Wenna added.

"Are not all ghosts creepy? So it should be okay. I also show my face when I live, if I die. This is the shape, this is." I vilify my face and stick my tongue out with my eyeballs in the top, so that it looks only white. "Then that's like this." I continued while pointing at Tamusong's charred face.

"Yes, but she only always appeared with her beauty, if until someone saw her true appearance when angry, then." Wenna's face became tense. "They'll be frightened forever" he continued. Wenna instantly changed her expression to be more friendly than before.

"To that extent it affects yes. Is he here?" I asked abstractly, making these two ghosts flabbergasted.

Wenna laughed at hearing that. "Not a priest, but rather, she is the ruler who, if she is styled, she is a queen in this kingdom."

"Well, is it a monkey? It's a wilderness, where there's a palace inside." I said, making a panicked look emanate from the two of them. Even Wenna immediately looked around as if afraid of anyone eavesdropping.

"You really are, making fun of the ruler on this island. You're the same as making fun of the president in our country." - furious Tamusong.

"Ah, after all the president won't hear either, unless he has a spy, it's possible that the words will reach him. But by the way, this is a supernatural yes, lest he can listen to it again.." murmured me while holding his chin.

"From that, you better go inside and get acquainted with the others. Soon the party is over and the park will be deserted. Do not get when the sun has risen, you have not got friends and shelter at all" he said, while moving and flying floating, after previously only being able to crawl because it has no legs.

"Sure you can fly too?" ask me amazed. "You're a species of rice eel fish huh?" keep me on track again.

"You like to mess around, but it's funny too. Haha.. I can fly, just like any other ghost. This is the basic power that ghosts have, the difference is, I prefer to change my body shape with something related to aquatic animals."

"Well, can it turn into a starfish?" my question, made Wenna turn around for a moment facing me.

"Later I'll turn into that. Now I have to go back to the water first, we're picking seaweed." he said as it passed.

Finally, Tamusong and I entered the forest and saw a gathering of ghosts who were chatting and playing casually in the middle of a large tree. The difference is, this association began to be quiet, not looking as crowded as before. Maybe the party's over, like what Wenna said just now.

We intend to come, and get acquainted with them. Before everything went away and left only the two of us and the deserted forest.
