Prologue
That howling sound, I could hear it again. This time not for once but for several times. They replied to each other, as if they sharing an information, telling where they must go search for a food for their dinners.
My hand trembling non-stop. My eyes widened cautious while a cold sweat wetting all of my body part. Ignoring both of my legs that felt weak wanted to stop, I keeps running with shortness on my breath.
This is not funny, not amusing at all. They wanted to eat dinners and I must become their food. Damned cursed monster, I will not let them to rip my stomach and eat my innards.
I stopped for a moment, hiding inside the large old buildings that nearly collapse. I breathe the air greedily like never. I have thought to hide in this old building forever. But if I did that, surely they could eventually find me. They are everywhere, too many like a bacteria in the air.
I leaned my body at the poles which made from iron. That poles is old and rusty. This place is nearly crumbled, I have thought inside my mind.
All of sudden, two werewolves coming from the outside. Those werewolves break through the windows to come inside this place.
Did they smell my odor so they know where I was? Is that because of their sole instinct? All of my body part trembling strong and my heart beaten very hard.
Those two werewolf looked at me. Both of them growled while showing their terrible teeth. Their saliva keep dripping implying if they are truly hungry.
I lift my weapons toward them. I tried to intimidate them with my weapon.
But those werewolves are fearless. In only a second both of them running toward me.
I shoot them blindly while running to outside the old building. Dozens of bullet I fire but no one of it died because of it.
I keep running backwards and then fall. My legs stuck between the large tree roots.
Those werewolves were still eyeing me. They drawing closer and made me panicked. I keep shooting them till all of my bullets was empty. But none of my bullets could kill even one of them.
Dead, I will die. They will kill me and then have a feast on my body. Ripping my stomach, eating my innards, and then eating my flesh and bloods.
I was hopeless. With both hand that never stop trembling, I grab my weapon tight. Ready to hit them with that weapon even though I know if that is useless.
Both of that werewolves come in front of me. 1 meter from my position, they jumped together ready to pounce on me. But, suddenly in a flash their body had split into two parts. Bloods spurting just like a fountain and together with that their lower body fall to the ground.
I widely opened my eyes in disbelief and shocks. My sight turned to a woman that wearing black clothes, stood still near those werewolf corpses.
That mysterious woman that I never know turned around and extends her hand to me. "Are you alright?", She asked.
I didn't answer. I didn’t know what to say. I was stunned by her beauty and at the same time I was terrified to see both of her eyes that glowing red like a devil.
Mysterious Woman
October, 19, 2040. 23.15 PM
There is still no progress. A result from research number 493 showing a negative response. The antivirus is not compatible with sample 05. The sample condition is weakening and lost its life. Percentage of failure exceeds 95%. Continuing to next sample for experiment number 494.
“For you!” Helmi put a cup of hot coffee beside Zafar computer.
Zafar saving his report and then turn his computer off. After that Zafar takes the hot coffee in front of him, then he turns his chair towards Helmi.
“Thanks.” Said Zafar.
Helmi walked toward Zafar working table and then leaning his body in one of another table near Zafar table.
“Today, will you work overtime again?”
Zafar smiled.”This job always drains my energy.”
“Just take more patience, you know. This job is not that simple. Just take it easy.”
“Yeah. I just wanted to finish this research quickly.”
Helmi smiled sour to his best friends that were actually his co-worker.
”This research will never end. There’s no ending for researcher like us. Things that we must research will always be there. But, when there’s nothing to research anymore, we will become unemployed. No job and money for us.”
Zafar showed a big smile and then laugh.
”Ha haha . . . , you’re right.” Zafar take a sip from his coffee.
“So, don’t force yourself, don’t make yourself sick because of your work. You know, I will always help whenever you need me, friend.”
“Thank you, Helmi.”
Helmi sighed.”Okay, I must go home now. It’s better if you are going home too.”
“After you . . . .”
Helmi walkaway.”Good night,” said Helmi before closing the door.
Zafar stare at Helmi in silent.
It’s not easy for someone like Zafar to become a person like him now. Everything comes from luck and from where you are.
Right, after all Zafar is on his own. Doing everything with his own power to survive, and also to reach his own dream.
Helmi is always helping Zafar especially at financial problem. Thanks to him Zafar can graduate from university and getting a ‘bright’ job as he got now. But, Helmi always said that was because of Zafar smart brain, skill and ability so he could get this job.
Zafar always know the truth, that alone isn’t enough to get a good and well paid job. He knows that the first thing is a good connection. The corporate owner or government is always take their family and their business partner as first priority and after that they can welcome other people. Working in government health institute is like a dream come true for Zafar. All thanks to Helmi.
Helmi academic performance is normal, compared to Zafar. But, Helmi was born from a rich family. That’s why he was fortunate. Helmi’s mother and father is still working actively at government as government high official. Because of his well-connected family Helmi can get this job and then luckily he also get a high position as manager.
Meanwhile Zafar wasn’t fortunate as Helmi.Although Zafar is smart and clever. His mother is only a house wife. And then an accident befall her when Zafar at his 10th birthday. His father is only a loser that leaving him when Zafar at his 15th. His father is a former historian who failed in his research, and shamed because he uttering some nonsense in public.
From his wage Zafar now can continue his education to the next level. Zafar wanted a doctorate title, He’s hoping with increasing in knowledge skill and ability he can get a better job and title, Zafar’s life will c
hange drastically. He can live leisurely and of course automatically it can change other’s people view and perspective to be better.
Zafar sighed and then slowly get up from his chair. Zafar taking his working bag before leaving the room. Zafar slowly walk to parking lot. Remember if tomorrow morning he had a class, he wanted to arrive at home as quickly as possible to take a rest. Tonight Zafar drive his car with more speed than usual, go through the silent night.
He thought to himself. Zafar liked his job now. But it still not so easy, sometimes this job making him a bit stressed, especially after their research always failed considerably. It’s very difficult to find a vaccine suitable for human. They wanted to find a vaccine that can strengthen human immune system. it was addressed so that human can no longer sick with significant virus, bacteria and can quickly recover from a deadly disease for example like Aids/HIV, Cancer, Ebola, and another disease.
Braakkk . . . .
Suddenly Zafar reverie was ended forcefully. He heard and feels that his car was hitting something. Zafar fall silent and gripping his steer tightly.
What . . . what happened? Zafar gulped. His eyes now open widely. His heart beating fast. Bad thought filling his brains now. Slowly, Zafar opening his car door. Suddenly he saw a mist that he didn’t saw before. The cold airs pricking his skin, making him shiver.
He then walks to the front of his car. His eyes wide open while at the same time surprised. He saw a young woman lying down on the ground with blood covered all of her body
"Oh my lord."
Zafar quickly approach that young woman to make sure how her condition is. He’s kneeling beside her and slowly his hand moving to that young woman nose to make sure she was still breathing.
Suddenly that young woman opened her eyes and glared at Zafar. Her red shining eyes making him surprised, he feel that his heart almost fall off his chest. Then within a second that young woman grab some big and shiny thing beside her, Zafar can saw that. That was a giant sword, a big and very long sword. Without any warning, that young woman thrusting her sword so fast toward Zafar’s head.
Zafar was frozen stiff, his eyes wide open. For a second his heart feels like it was really stopped. He thinks now he’s atadeath’s door. But suddenly he fells something liquid and warm at his back. Slowly he gulped and then saw that giant sword near his right eyes. His eyes following that sword from the hilt until his head turning to his back, he then saw something amazing, something that often referred at myth and legend, a monster whose appearance like a wolf but standing with two feet, a werewolf.
He saw that creature clearly, it was at death’s door. Spurting blood everywhere because that young woman’s giant sword pierced through its head. Within a second that young woman pulls out her giant sword from its head. That werewolf making a lot of noise and then fall to the ground. Zafar can see that werewolf dead, blood still flowing from its hole in the head.
What . . . happened? Zafar fells like he was dreaming.
But his mind forcing him to believe it was real. The feel of warm blood in his back, a little pain comes from the wound in his right shoulder that happened because the giant sword grazed at him. Zafar tremble, he’s panicked and suddenly stands up from kneeling position. Still panicking he run away from that young woman and that werewolf. But then he fall because his feet tripped to his other feet. That young and mysterious woman looked at him with a cold eye. Making him feel more and more scared. Because of fear he even can’t feel any more pain from his grazed wound.
With fast movement, that mysterious young woman standing up. Then she directly approaches two other werewolves that wanted to attack her. She nimbly evade those two werewolf attack and then with one swift movement she successfully cut one in the neck until it’s head flew away and it’s body fall to the ground.
Without time to waste, she attacks the last werewolf. She attack fiercely and cut its body several times, fresh blood spurt from every part of its wound. A little bit of its blood flew toward Zafar and hit his eyeglass. Still standing up that werewolf suddenly strokes its two claws toward that white haired young woman with its last strength.
`“Ah . . . .” she let out a little scream seeing that attack incoming. Then with fast movement she tries to dodge.
But that werewolf successfully hit her left arm. Blood quickly flow from her big wound and fall to the ground
“Dam . . . n . . .!”
Ignoring the pain in her wounded left arm, that young woman suddenly ran toward the werewolf that seems cannot move anymore. Still running she thrust the giant sword and piercesitsstomach completely. After that she pulls her giant sword while at the same time kicking its stomach with one foot. That werewolf falls to the ground slowly, but that young woman still unsatisfied, she approaching that dying werewolf and lifts her giant sword toward the sky. She takes a deep breath and exhaling it slowly, then with one fast movement she swing her giant sword to the werewolf neck until its head severed and blood spurting everywhere.
That young woman backed away from that werewolf corpse and slowly sat on the ground.
Not only feel shaken and trembling in fear, Zafar was almost lost consciousness, his body was also frozen stiff. None was right in his mind, all that moment just like an illusion, he doesn’t even think of running away all this time. He just sat there watching, like watching some movie. His mouth sealed shut, and his body until the tip of his finger trembling very hard, many question filling his overloaded brain. It seems unreal but he knows that very well, this all was real.
Zafar’s eyes look at that young woman in silent, then accidentally he saw something weird. Some of the blood in the ground move toward that young woman slowly. Those bloods gathered while at the same time climbing her body and then those blood entering her body through her wounded left arm.
He amazed, but not only that, the wound in her left arm is disappearing completely. His eyes widened in disbelieve, he can’t help but to think that he himself was just hallucinating.
It’s all seems impossible, those monsters appearance, moving blood and a beautiful young woman killing those monster with giant sword. His mind collided to decide whether it’s real or just an illusion, why did that woman still sitting there? For a while he still continuously looking at her through his blood strained glasses.
That young woman with long white hair breathed deeply then she looked at Zafar. Her red blood colored shining eyes look at Zafar fiercely.
“Hey . . . Bring me to a safe place,” she said with a loud voice.
Zafar surprised, for a few second he doesn’t know how to reply but he finally opened his mouth.
“Wh . . . Who are . . . you?”
Zafar gulped, he bravely asking a question to that young woman. Young women that make him tremble in fear but also make him feel curious.
That young woman glared at Zafar, her red blood eyes became scarier.”Did you hear me?”
Zafar once again surprised.”W-will you kill me?”
“Ha? I just want to leave this place!”
Taking a short breath, Zafar’s trembling hand took off his glasses and then cleaning the blood stain with his white shirt. He once again wear that eye glasses and find himself surprised again because that white haired young woman is already close in front of him.
“I’m Aria, take me off from this damned place!”
Zafar looked at Aria beautiful face, after that he looks at her left arm that was previously wounded terribly.”Are you . . . Alright?”
Aria did not responds to Zafar’s question.
“What is actually happened?” Zafar asking once more to Aria.
Aria ignoring Zafar completely, she walking toward Zafar’s car. She’s opening the car middle door, and then throws her giant sword toward the backseat.
Still trembling Zafar waking up slowly, both of his hand holding in his knee. For a while Zafar was looking around him, he found many corpses not for away from his standing place, he now realize. Aria is not only killing 2 or 3 werewolves, but up to 9
werewolves was found dead. Their body was dismembered and mutilated to many parts. Zafar can imagine, it all because of Aria giant sword.
Zafar suddenly feel nauseous, he reflexively shut his mouth with his two hands. He quickly looks to other way, trying to forget those piles of corpses and scattered organ. He slowly walks to his car, but when he does arrive, the contraction in his stomach became more severe. Suddenly a blowing wind carries the smell of blood toward his nose. He automatically remembers those grotesque scenes and feels dizzy. He can’t help but vomit, all the food in his stomach was expelled completely.
“What are you doing? I’m waiting . . . .” Aria said while looking at Zafar with disgusted expression. She already was taking a seat inside Zafar’s car.
Zafar then looked at Aria while at the same time trying to get up, he slowly clean his mouth from his own vomit with his white shirt. He opens the driver seat and go inside the car.
“You are so weak . . .” Aria smile sarcastically while mocking Zafar.
Zafar sighed then look at the beautiful young woman that sits beside him.
“Eh? Your wound . . . .” Zafar looking at Aria left arm that now look smooth and not even a scratch is there, it was clearly visible from her torn up clothes.
“What do you mean?” Aria looks at Zafar sharply.
Zafar look at her eyes and he’s now shocked. The color from Aria eyes was changed and not the same as before. Her red glowing scary eyes that can make him tremble and scared now have changed to blue cool color. She now looks like a normal beautiful young woman with a white long hair.
She's very beautiful, Zafar said in his mind.
“The hell you look at? Drive now!” Aria glared at Zafar and let out a loud voice.
“O . . . Okay . . . .” Zafar answered with low voice.
That man turns his car key to activate its engine, then he drive his car.
Am I inside a dream? No . . . no . . . , this is too real to be called a dream. I’m still feeling nauseous, and now she sitting right beside me. And also my clothes are full of blood stain. I’m sure as hell that I’m not dreaming.
