The Winged Man

It's not the first time Alka blacked out and the spirit took over his body. Iko knows what to do when Alka got trance and about to go to take care of Alka. But Jovan stopped him from getting out of salt circle. He was worried if Iko got out of the circle, the things inside Alka will do harm to him. Jovan knows better that it's strong enough to hurt everyone in the room if he's not careful.

Jovan can't see what kind of ghost it is, but he could feel it that it's really strong. He could feel the pressure before and after Alka got tranced. The atmosphere were heavier and colder, even though it's not rainy season. Alka's eyes were blank, his body's really cold, and his face was really pale.

"Who are you?" asked Jovan.

"Can't you tell? You slept with me last night, after we drunk together," answered Alka.

"No, I'm not. You're not Alka. Who are you?"

"The one you love," he said.

"Speak, or I'll make you do!" state Alka.

The man laugh evilishly. "Please, I dare you if you can," he continued to laugh, "I know all about what you've always been desired and who's your obsession."

Jovan sigh. "It will take a long time. Just get out of his body!"

The man put his hands to Alka's head and sent his energy to expel the spirit inside him. The spirit didn't feel hurt at all.

"Hahaha... What are you doing? It's ticklish..."

Jovan ignored him, he's focused on his energy and pray. "Come on, Alka, get a grip of yourself."

"He's busy for the moment. Why don't we play?" asked the spirit.

"I don't have time to play," Jovan gripped Alka's hands and pushed him down. He made a symbols on Alka's body with the other hand, and locked him on the ground. "Get out!"

"NO!" Alka screamed, but the voice that came out from his mouth was high pitched voice like a woman's voice. "Ah, it's hot... Stop it...! STOP!"

So, it's a woman, afterall. She's tried to trick me before.

"You'll be burned if you're not get out of his body!"

"This body is mine!!" screamed the spirit.

Meanwhile, Alka trapped inside his own body, strugling to restore his consciousness. It was only deep black around him, all he could see is his own body. He's just keep walking even though he can't see anything. Screaming or calling out Jovan or Iko only wasting of time, because the other two won't get inside Alka's mind.

Suddenly, there were a spot light appear not far from where Alka's standing and there's a man under the light. Alka went there and found out that it was the winged man that he saw in the building. He wore black suits, but the wings were gone. The man smiled widely and spread his hands, welcoming Alka.

"Hello, Alka. It's really nice to meet you," he said.

"Aren't you the winged man that I saw in the building? What are you?" asked Alka.

"Call me Lascivia, an Incubus in my world."

"Incubus? A demon? How? Why?" Alka's never imagined that he can see a demon. It was his first time seeing one. But, how could he saw demon and why? There are so many questions in his head, but then Lascivia rise his hand, made a sign for Alka to be quiet.

"I know what you're going to ask. But let me tell you, I'm not the one who killed the building owner and his family."

Right. I came to this building to figure out what was happened in this building and the owner, Alka said to himself and asked, "Then who did it?"

"The one who's taking over your body right now, Kemuning. She's fell in love with the owner and being jealous because he's married."

"And she turned to evil spirit and killed the owner...?"

"Right. At least she tried. Her plan was to be with the guy for eternity, she thought after she killed him, he'll be with her. But the guy never appear as a ghost," Lascivia said.

Suddenly, a woman's voice echoed, spoke to them, "Do not tell him about it! I want this body! This body is mine!" screamed the woman, Kemuning, angrily.

"I told you about their relationship, so why can't I tell them about you and your crush?!" Lascivia snapped.

"Hm, as long as I could take over his body and kill that man's family, I'll do everything you said," Kemuning answered after a short silent.

Alka can't say anything and just stared at the man in front of him. Lascivia's hair was silver and he had muscular body. Alka could see the firm abs and muscles he had through his suits.

"Pardon me, sometimes Kemuning interupted my words. I promise she wouldn't do that again until we have a deal," Lascivia said.

"What deal? I do not make any deals with demon."

"Oh, really? But... The other guy out there will be hurt if we don't make a deal. The spirit is much stronger than he thought, so he might get killed together with the other guy, Iko," said Lascivia.

"Now you're threatening me?" asked Alka.

"Of course! I always get what I want, so, I don't care about the progress, I only see the result. It doesn't matter for me how I get what I want."

"Then, I can't let you stay here any longer," Said Alka.

"Hahaha! What can you do to me? You can't handle a low spirit like that woman, but you wanted to banish me from this place?!"

Suddenly, the incubus fly towards him and in a blink of an eye, he already stand an inch in front of Alka and whispered on Alka's ear, "You're just a psychic, who invites spirits and demons like us to get to you. But I'm not greedy to take over your body and soul for myself."

Alka pushed Lascivia away, "So you think I'm weak to throw you out?"

"Aren't you?" Lascivia snapped his finger and Alka can't move a finger at all in an instant.

"What are you doing?" Alka asked. He tried to move, but nothing happened.

Lascivia grin and said, "If you're strong, you can break the spell easily. Why don't you try?"

He took one step closer to Alka, "I want you to help me to find someone."

"Is this how you asked someone to help you? Release me immediately!" protest Alka.

"I told you, if you're stronger, you can break the spell."

Alka keep strugling, tried to move his body, while Lascivia get closer to him.

"The only option you had is to help me, or everyone's dead," He made a gesture with his hands and then a light came from his palm. He threw the light to the dark side, then a big screen showed Iko and Jovan fighting Alka's body. Jovan had scratches on his body and Iko lied on the ground. Alka can't be sure he's fainted or... He didn't want to think about death.

"So, will you help me?" Lascivia asked.

"What do you want?" Alka asked him back.

Lascivia lift Alka's face. "Find my partner in human world, will you?"

"And you'll save them?"

"Yes, and I'll share my power with you. The necklace's just too old to protect you, you know?"

"It's my grandma's present, don't badmouth it."

"Sst... Let me seal the deal with you," Lascivia brought his face closer to Alka then he kissed him. Alka still can't move his body, so the only thing he could do is to accept Lascivia. As Lascivia put his tongue inside Alka's mouth, he felt his body became lighter and warmer. Alka closed his eyes and after a while, Alka can move his body. When Alka finally opened his eyes, he saw Jovan's face in front of him, watching him carefully.

"Are you okay?" Jovan asked.

"How about you and Iko?" Alka asked him back.

"I'm okay. Iko's resting on the couch," Jovan answered.

"Very well then... Let me sleep for a while..." Alka said weakly.

"Yeah, you should. Everything's alright. Just sleep now..." said Jovan. Alka closed his eyes and fell in to the deep sleep.
