The Mystery Red Umbrella
The Free Soul

The wind blew so hard, Barrow retreated his seat. The exploding tomb was really startling, a thick smoke even emerged from within the tomb. Anna pulls Barrow's hand, invites him to step back and move away from the tomb.

The two of them slowly retreated. Barrow gulped, eyes not escaping from the thick smoke that was getting more and more. The shadow of a terrifying ghost emerging from the thick smoke filled the mind. Barrow even retreated to Anna's back, hopefully not a ghost with a horrible face.

The thick smoke began to fade, the figure of a woman carrying an umbrella was visible. Undoubtedly, it was a spirit in a red umbrella but its figure was not as terrifying as he usually showed. The tear on his face was already invisible, though,.Natalie even looks so pretty. Just one that was no different, the red umbrella that he always carried.

"What's? Am I free?" his spirit seemed to be in disbelief.

"Yes, Natalie. I have freed you" said Anna.

"You?" Natalie looked at Anna and saw the umbrella that had sealed her soul all this time in order to submit to Mariana was almost burnt.

"I'm free" said Natalie. His spirit floated upward, and the sound of his cry was heard, "I am free, I am free!"

Natalie was so happy, she flew around the area to express her happiness. From now on no one can control himself anymore.

"Is he the spirit who always does this?" ask Barrow.

"Yeah, but what he did on the orders of Mariana's spirit. He's just a pawn in charge of collecting souls for Mariana."

"Wow, poor spirit!"

Natalie was still flying but not for long, she returned to her grave. Somehow Anna Baker was able to find the cursed umbrella and free herself but she had to thank the agent.

"Thank you, I don't know how you found the umbrella but I'm very grateful to you" Natalie said.

"No problem, Natalie. Tell me what happened to you?"

"I'm so stupid to be fooled by that old fucking guy!" flames of hatred were seen from the look in his eyes.

"You two are stupid, so easy it is to fall into the arms of the old, pretentious handsome man when the handsome man is in front of your eyes!" lt's Barrow.

"The older one is more seductive, Barrow!" said Anna.

"Damn it, I can't believe that I can lose to that old man who won that look!" grouse Barrow.

Anna just shook her head but she wanted to know what happened to Natalie, she also wanted to get Natalie to work together.

"Say, what did they do that you were killed and your soul sealed like no other?"

"I'm like you, Anna. I was also born into a family that could cast out demons. When Nick approached me, I knew something was wrong but he tricked me. Before I was killed, I was about to go home but some of his followers caught me. I was killed in this forest, my soul was captured by Mariana and put into the umbrella she cursed. Before I died, they treated me vilely, my mouth in scissors by Nick because I was screaming and cursing at him. I was buried in a state of complete absence, and this tomb was given a spell so that my soul was bound to Mariana and could only carry out his orders. I tried to rebel and fight back but I couldn't but when I saw what you had, I knew you could stop it all."

"A very vile old man!" said Barrow.

"He is not as good as he looks, he seems like an angel, but he is a devil. I tried to warn you on the beach, I hope you're not as deceived as I am but before I tell the truth, Mariana knows what I'm about to do. My soul was shackled by it, so I was helpless. Know that the damned box was intended for you to find because it will take my role to take the rest of the victims that I should have collected because of the time that is not much. You were lured into that old house so you could get the box."

"Precious box like that, do you think Mariana would put it anywhere? You were tricked, the box was deliberately given to you so that the box could do its part."

Anna and Barrow looked at each other, was that right? But nothing was impossible especially after the box took the collision, the box disappeared and returned to Mariana. If so, had they not only been kept busy by Mariana for her purpose? What a clever evil witch.

"Alright, we're really stupidly beguiled by it. Now I've freed you, Natalie. I hope you'll cooperate with me" asked Anna because this is the goal.

"What do you want, Anna?"

"Pretend you're still under Mariana's shackles, return to your place before I set you free. Find out where the ritual is going and tell me. I must have a spy who can give me information so I need your help."

"That's a simple matter, you've set me free then I'll cooperate with you. Anyway I want to take revenge on the old man who trapped and killed me!"

"Thank you, now pretend nothing happened tonight!" Anna Pinta.

Natalie nodded, her spirit began to thin. He will come back and pretend to still be under Mariana's shackles to trick the evil witch.

Anna invites Barrow to clean up the place before they leave. Their goal had been achieved even though they did not know whose tomb was there but they guessed that it was the tomb of the victim and it was. All the tombs are those of victims not found by the authorities.

"Now, what are we gonna do, Anna?" ask Barrow.

"Back, rest. We have to have extra strength to face Mariana. Don't you want to go home and stay here?"

"Oh, no. I can't wait to get out of here!" backpack taken, Barrow can't wait to go.

"After we get home, I'll prepare a milk pool for us to soak in" Barrow said.

"Wouldn't think perverted at the tomb, know the curious spirits will follow you home," Anna began to scare.

"There you are, I'm not afraid!" said Barrow.

"Yeah, and that ghost is going to go undercover so I'm going to go inside your room to sleep with you!"

"Don't just talk, Anna!" Barrow rubbed his nape, goosebumps.

"May no one come to you like me, Barrow, "Anna's getting on purpose.

"Damn, I'm not afraid!"

"Let's go!" take Anna because they have to go.

They looked at the tomb for a moment before leaving the place. One mission is over, just waiting for the night of the full moon to stop Mariana's awakening but before that, they need a break before making a real fight.
