Eden&Serene Hollow Tree

Owh Hello there. you’re just in time for another spine tingling story. come and sit… relax and close your eyes… let your imagination run free as i tell my tale of the Midnight Cries.

READERS BEWARE, YOU’RE IN FOR A SCARE

everyone wants to enroll into a university. to further their studies and all that but for some, they got stuck taking Pra- University first before embarking their journey into the fun and wild of university life but what they don’t know might be the reason of their gruesome death. 5 young Pra-university students are about to find out that learning about a new school’s past is important after all… because you never know, what secrets the school is trying to bury.

*the names of the students shall remain anonymous because of personal reasons. the story shall be edited with new names. we apologize for any inconvenience this story may cause you.

Tasha is a new girl from a far away school. her family wasn’t that rich so she has to put her dreams of studying abroad aside. in the end, she enroll into Pra- university at Habas College. Tasha was the kind of girl you see in movies… the “goody two shoe”. always helping others in their time of need but she’s also the type of girl who gets pushed around by mean kids. shame huh? when she first go the letter stating that she is able to continue her studies at Habas College, she was so thrilled… she didnt even know the school or the background of the school but still, she was jumping for joy.

THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL.

Tasha is now in the school. when she first took her first step in her own class. she was so happy and conveniently it was located near the school mosque. she thought to herself “senang la sikit ni sekarang nak solat.” he class was painted white. there are chairs already arranged in 8 rows. looks like everything was already set for today’s class.

as the weeks goes by, she made new friends here…. Alyna, Kasim, Chee, and Alex. the one thing they all had in common was the fact that they were all from different schools from a far away place. they came to Habas College with no information of it’s history. well most students don’t really care anyway right? hehehe…

Writer’s note: I apologize for the delay in delivering the 3rd Chapter. This part was done over a few weeks ago, but I had trouble publishing. Will post Chapters 4 and 5 later.

1st May 2021, 1.30 PM, Forest Villa.

After a journey of an hour and 30 minutes, we arrived at Forest Villa. After yet another bear hug from Mum, I got out of the car. “See you later, Mum.” I said. “Have a great night,” replied Mum, although her face did not convey the happiness that laced the sentence. I saw it, but overlooked it as “just another Mum worried for her son” expression. I closed the car door, and with a whirr and a gear shift, Mum went off on her way.

I approached the receptionist’s desk, and was greeted by a friendly girl with blonde hair, blue eyes and a heart-shaped face.

“Good afternoon Sir. How may I help you?” she asked sweetly.

“Uh, I have a gathering to attend, but I’m not familiar with this place.” I admitted, showing the invitation card I got a few days before the gathering(Surprisingly, the time was changed to 2 pm, but I decided to go earlier).

She took it from me, and after a little while, she said,”Oh, your gathering’s held at the Clubhouse, Sir. Just go down this way, and turn right at the third junction”, pointing in the direction to my right.

“Thank you so much, Miss….Mariana.” I said, taking a brief glance at her nametag.

“Your welcome, Mr. Hunter. Have a nice day.” replied Mariana, smiling broadly.

I then proceeded to the clubhouse, as per Mariana’s instructions. And sure enough, I got there without much effort. Pfft, and they said blondes were stupid, I thought.

As I touched the doorknob, my head was suddenly racked in pain, and I kneeled on one knee. I suddenly saw images past by me. I saw Yunalesca getting carried into a room by a man, I saw myself getting drunk and getting into a fistfight with another person, I saw a guy holding a beer bottle high in the sky, and shouted, “Alright everyone, let’s start the F*** party!” 

And just like that, the visions stopped. I was kneeling, beads of cold sweat trickling down my face and back.

“Urgh, what did I just witness? Were those images…..visions of the future? Are they really real? They seem so real…..”I muttered. 

I rose from my kneeling position, and leaned against the wall on my right. “Great, a headache. Just what I need…”I muttered, breathing heavily. I then trudged into the restrooms, where I washed my face. Just as I caught my reflection in the mirror, Michael Dayton walked past me.”Hey Michael….”I croaked, the headache decreasing in intensity.

“Yo, Hunter! It’s been a while, hasn’t it?” He asked.”5 months after the government exam. Heh, so how you been?” I asked.

We then caught up with each other in the lounge(there were a few of our classmates at the clubhouse, so we decided to go and talk at the lounge), talking about life, family, relationships, and of course our friends. We were the best friends in 5 Aurelia. Of course, our separate lives temporarily cut us off, and this was a great opportunity to rekindle that friendship.”You know, I had visions this morning.” he confided, his voice lowering to a whisper.”What the hell? I had them just a few minutes ago!” I said, shocked at this revelation.We compared our visions, and were amazed by how similar it was. “This is freaky. It’s as if someone…or something is trying to tell us a story. But what could it be?” said Michael, gazing at the marble floor. 

“I don’t know,man. Whoever is giving us these…..messages, obviously doesn’t want any harm to come to us. But why us? Why not the rest?” I asked, dying for any a clue that might solve this puzzle.

“Your guess is as good as mine. We gotta be careful tonight. Who knows what might happen?” suggested Michael.

“I couldn’t agree more. Oh, it’s nearly 2 PM. Time for the party.” I said, looking at my watch.

“Let’s stay alert. We may change the events of the vision, if we’re careful.” said Michael.”Yeah. Let’s.” I agreed, and we went on our way.

I shall not tell about the events that took place within the 4 hours. To summarize, it was a perfect buffet lunch, with games, karaokes and the Revolution Dance arcade game.

Now, if you can bear with me, listen to what happened after 6 pm.

Chapter 2-The Party

1st May 2021, 8 AM, Cecil’s Room

“Meow……” I slowly opened my groggy eyes, and came face to face with Odin, my pet Sphynx cat. Odin was pawing my face, and proceeded to do so, even as I lay on my bed watching him. Normally, I would cuddle up Odin in my arms and return to sleep. Something was on my mind, on this particular day.

“The party….it’s that day already? I thought it was tomorrow…” I grumbled, in a state of semi-consciousness. My handphone suddenly rang, bringing forth a techno song, breaking the once silent room, accompanied only by the hum of the air-conditioning. I took the phone, touched the screen and placed the phone against my left ear. 

 ”…hello?” I spoke, with a slight grogginess to my voice.

“Hey, darling!” It was my girlfriend, Gina Harrison. She’s 2 years my junior and is currently in Brongaa, studying. Even after she left Forest City, she hasn’t looked at another man and returns every half-year to visit her family and me. I was lucky to have her.

“Hello, my beautiful angel,” I said, trying not to make it obvious that I had just woken up.

“Hello there, my very handsome man. Just woken up, have you?” said Gina, putting on a fake British accent.There was no use hiding it from her, really. Her ears were as sharp as a katana. 

“Yeah…I slept at 12 midnight.” I confessed, with just a tinge of guilt in my voice.

I’m not gonna go into much detail regarding our conversations. We said we missed each other, she told me about her loneliness there, I comforted her. Normal things really.

“Oh, by the way. I broke a glass cup this morning. I think it’s a bad sign.” she said, worried.

“Ah, don’t be bothered by it. Must be an accident.” I replied.

“But you see, I didn’t even touch it.” she retorted.

“You must have pushed it by accident” I replied back.

“But I put on it the counter and left coz my mum called.” she added.

“You must have put it down on an edge.” I concluded.

“Well, whatever it is….Be careful okay?” she implored.

“Anything for you, my beautiful, intelligent young woman.” I replied.

“Hey, when you come back, why don’t we go for a candlelit dinner?” I suggested.

“You know I’m not the romantic type, Hunter….” said Gina, sounding very disturbed by the idea.

I laughed. “I’m just yanking your chain, Harrison! Relax, we’ll go catch a movie once you come back to Forest City. I gotta go now. I’ll call you later at night.

“You love putting me on edge, don’t you?” she grunted. “Alright Cecil. I’ll be waiting for your call. Love you, dear”

“Love you too, angel.”

With a click, she was gone. I pressed the red icon on my screen. I cried a bit, not because I’m said, but because I was….appreciative. “I’m not going to find another girl like her. Not in a million years.” I thought to myself. I put my phone on my bed, and went downstairs for breakfast.

1st May 2021, 12 PM, Cecil’s Room

I looked at myself in the mirror. Black slim fitting jeans, dark blue t-shirt. I left my hair(short, undyed and smooth) as it is. I never really liked hair gel or cream. “Not bad. Not bad at all.” I said to myself, posing in several macho poses. I then giggled quietly at my own silliness.

I went downstairs, whereupon my mother was waiting. Grabbing my wallet and phone from the table, I said to my mum, “I’m ready.” She rose from her seat, and gave me a bear hug(which was quite common among my family). “Be wary of your surroundings, Cecil. Don’t forget that.” advised my mother. “Mum, don’t worry I’ll be fine.” I said. And with that, we went to the garage, into the car and left for Forest Villa.

Later that night though, I wished I had paid more attention to what she said.

Chapter 1-The Invite

3 WEEKS AGO…

EMAIL ADDRESS: CecilHunter_IV@planetmail.com

PASSWORD: *******

With the hum of the computer accompanying me, I logged on to SocietyPlace, a popular social networking site across the world. The usual notifications(tagged screenshots of an online game, boasting their achievements. I could care less) and a message. Nothing unusual. A few minutes later, a new notification came in.

Yunalesca Griffin has invited you to “Kazuhira High School: 5 Aurelia 2010 Gathering” 

As I was staring at this notification, I thought to myself “Why, another plan? The last one failed due to a less than warm celebration.” I immediately clicked the notification, and was brought to the event page. 

Kazuhira High School: 5 Aurelia 2010 Gathering

Time: 1st May 2021-3 May 2021

Location: Forest Villa, Forest City

Created by: Yunalesca Griffin

Extra Information: Hey guys! Before we leave for uncharted waters, let us meet up at Forest Villa to honour our 5 years of being Aurelians. We’ll be renting 2 villas there(which comes with a pool, to satisfy those of you who need a swim ;)). And we’ll be having a buffet at the dining lounge. So, bring about 50$ to cover our expenses, kay?

Whichever one of you chooses to sleep over, then you may sleep over at one of the 2 villas we’ve rented. Oh, and for those of you with a significant other, I am afraid you’re gonna have to leave them behind, as this is an Aurelian only gathering. We’re looking forward to seeing you there!

I gazed at the screen for a long time. I didn’t know whether to go or not. I wanted to go, but something about it just doesn’t feel right. I consulted my mother about the matter, and showed her the details. My mum said, “You can go, but you must be careful.” And so I clicked the “Attending” button.I didn’t know it then, but 3 weeks later…a nightmare is about to begin. 

“Why would my mother would kill me?! Why would she kill herself!!?” the ghost got more angrier. It was total scary. But, Shuuhei remain calms.

“Mihael Keehl is your name. the Keehl family, your father is a sinner, murder and moron. I thought ‘tis family will be polluted. I don’t want to get my love-able son got polluted by his hands’ So, I hired someone in the end. to vanish the name of the Keehl family. For my son’s sake” the voice suddenly came. That was the real mom of that boy. The boy let go of Shuuhei and go running away to his mother. He hugs her and cried. 

“I’m sorry Mihael. Mother was so worried. So, I didn’t have any choice.” his mother apologize. 

“but.. how did this guy know?” He then point on Shuuhei. Shuuhei only smiled stupidly. Her mother replies ” I told him. I’ve been calling out of him since this evening. But, he keeps ignoring it. Well, thanks to Mihael.. I got somehow to tell him before he wentin the empty house again. Well, I was shocked seeing him laugh suddenly” Shuuhei blushes. Shuuhei went near him. ” See , I told you I’ll help you find her! ta-da” the boy suddenly continues to chock him. “Dont get your hope so high! * “ 

The mothers apologizes on behalf of his son and thank you for helping. They were about to go. 

“Wait! Can I have  a picture taken with two of you?!” They stopped and accept the request. On the next day, he takes the pictures and make sure that theres him and the two ghost. and the bottom of the picture, there was written… ‘Lost Children’ That was written by Mihael himself. He said that ” Till’ now, I always been lost. But, thanks to you. I finally free!” Shuuhei laughs by himself and runs of to the cafeteria. He saw Yaya and show her the picture. 

“Senior Shuuhei, what the hell am I supposed to look at? Why are you the only one laughing stupidly in the picture all by yourself?!* ” Yaya throws the picture to Shuuhei’s face and leave. 

“Eh, could it be? I’m the only one that can see?” He doesn’t cares about Yaya, but he continues to smile although this experience was scary but fun! 

XxExtraxX

….at home, “Where is the thigs that I said you to buy?!”

’..could it be i left it somewhere in the forest?! no way!!!’

….Then End~

 “Blood is dripping all around. The boy kept running of fear. But, someone was still following him.THAT someone was the murder that kill her mother and now he is going to kill that boy… no matter how long the boy run…” “…he will still be caught. And, he was killed by that guy’s hand and that boy from now on will seek revenge, right? That’s the 5th time you tell me, Shuuhei!” a young girl name Yaya scolded her senior who is 1 year older than her, Sheikh Shuuhei. (but called as Shuuhei) “You sure memorized the story well, Yaya” he said while laughing by himself. Yaya get out of the cafeteria and headed to class. “Hey, Yaya. Want to go? …to that forest?” “Forest? what are you talking about?” “the forest that the boy was killed. It’s near to our school! Let’s go! We might find him!” “You actually believed that story? and i thought you were older than me. Besides, I’m busy. Go on yourself.” “huh- are you scared of ghost?” “aren’t you the one who is scared of ghost. Thats why you ask me to join. but, i wont accept it. your a boy. You can do this job, right? besides, YOU ARE OLDER THAN ME” “ehh?!! NO WAY!!!” on the way back from school. Shuuhei cancel he’s trip to go to that forest. Actually, what Yaya said was true. He was actually finding a friend to accompany him on the trip because he was too scared. He looks up at the forest from his house. He feels like he was been called by someone. But, he ignores it. “Shuuhei! Makan malam!” Shuuhei then rushed down stairs and enjoys the dinner. “Shuuhei, tolong Mama jap. Pergi beli barang di kedai. Kawan Mama hendak datang esok. Jadi, Mama nak buat makanan sedap. boleh tolong?” Shuuhei nods.But, a little supired. She didn’t know that her mother will have a friend at this age. Well, he didn’t care. So, after dinner, he went shopping. After shopping, he saw a boy standing all alone with a sad face. He goes near him and ask him what happened. “My mom! I lost my mom!” the boy cries. He pats his head and said. “It’s okey. I’m sure your mom is around. I’ll help you find it!” “Then, could you follow me?” the boy ask but he suddenly stop his tear. Shuuhei was little shocked. ” …to go where?” Shuuhei ask. The boys smirk and laugh. He pulls Shuuhei all the way to the forest. But, bad things happened here. The forest that they went it was the forest that the story Shuuhei was telling this morning. He turns around and he couldn’t find the boy went. He was all alone in the forest. Shuuhei then run as fast as he can. Well, he doesn’t know where is he headed to, but he was to panic and run away to get out of the forest. “How big if this forest anyway?!” Shuuhei shouts. He hopes that maybe someone might hear. him. -sob..sob…sob..- He suddenly stop and heard a sobbing sound. He saws an empty house and gets in. He looks around and found blood all around the house. Shuuhei couldn’t able to talk. He saw a lady’s corpse that was been stab with a knife. But, for some reason, that lady was awake and stand all of the sudden. With blood all around her. Her tears burst out. She take out of the knife from her body. “I won’t forgive anybody who hurts my family!!” she said with a evil laugh and tears coming out of her eyes. “Hurt?” Could it be? That, this is the boy’s mother? Shuuhei couldn’t stay longer there and he knows that looks like a real knife, so he run fast and escaped from that house. He run and run and run as fast as he can. “ahahahah. ahahaa. Your funny. You look like me 10 year ago. -laughs- this is so fun” the boy appears suddenly in front of him. the woman that chased Shuuhei seems to be gone. The young boy goes near Shuuhei and pass through his body. “May you have a great nightmare. -laughs-” the boy disappear. Shuuhei looks around and clench his hand. “Damn! How can I handle! Anyone! Help me!” [Your a boy. You can do this job alone, right? You are older than me.] Shuuhei shocked and laughs all by himself. He may be afraid but because of that… he as well become mad. He goes back to the empty house and saw two ghost. One is the young boy and one is the mother. “Finally found your mother?” “Yeah, I can’t live without my mother, you see” “Are you sure thats your mother?” the boy shocked. and denies Shuuhei. “Of course! I lost my mother at the town! ..and all because of you, i finally found her.” “Are you even a human? Are you even happy being that way?! Your dead now! and that woman isnt your mom! That woman was another victim that was being killed by the murder!” “Your wrong!! this person is my mother! and i know of it! anyones who disturb my happiness, will be ELIMINATED!!” the boys scream and the house was going to crumble. Shuuhei ran out of the house. and he seems to anger the ghost. The wind was very STRONG. the place get darker. He can’t even believe what happened. But, he face to the boy . The boy goes near him and chocked him. The boy holds him tightly. Shuuhei can almost breathe. “The one who murder you, was YOUR MOTHER!” the boy was in total shocked and continues to chocked him more tightly. “Thats not true! I saw my mother with my own eyes, she was killed by someone!” Shuuhei hold the boys hand. His hand was shivering in fear. “She orders someone to kill you and herself. The person that you thought your mom, was the one who take the orders of your mother! On second words, the one killed your mother and you, was your mother!” ….to be continued.. =.=

  Nina Sweetape, was loved by all. Boys, girls, everyone. She had pretty brown locks, dazzling hazel pair of eyes and branded clothing from head to toe. To make it short, she was born with a silver spoon down her throat.

But one day, the tables turned. Everything that the Sweetape owned was taken away. Her parents had to sold her to an elderly woman. First Nina objected, but to save her family she had to do so. 

For 3 months Nina became a slave to the old lady. She called her Ina Moing, meaning Elderly mother. Nina had to do more than a dozen chores a day. But one night, when Nina was asleep, she woke up from the sound of the beating drums and gongs. She tiptoed across the living room quietly making sure not to make the slightest sound. The house was made out of old wood. You could tell that the house was more than 50-years-old by the smell and sound it makes when you walk on the floor.

As she was tiptoeing she saw a stray of light coming from the the kitchen. It was so bright that it was almost blinding. Since the house was an old tradisional house, there was no electric. She cracked open the door and peep through it, but all she could she is nothing.

  Ina Moing is a very spiritual person. She is a bomoh or a witchdoctor as you can say. She cures people from sickness and cast spells on people for those who need protection or even curse you for generations. People say she’s so powerful, that you don’t want to mess with her that once she place a spell on a woman who was so eager to have kids that she cursed the witchdoctor saying it was her fault. The witchdoctor casted the woman to give birth to a hundred children non-stop that she end up dead. No one knew who Ina Moing really was. They know that she doesn’t have any other families or siblings. Some say, it’s cause she killed them.

 Nina rubbed her eyes, when she opened them Ina Moing was in front of her.

“GAH! Ouh my God! You scared me Ina!”
“hmm.. Kenapa anak masih bangun tengah malam buta ini? (Why are you still awake at this night, child?)” 
“Tak Ina. Nina dengar bunyi drum tadi. Nina terbangun la. Ina belum tidur lagi? (Nothing Ina. I heard sounds of drums just a while ago. I was woken up by it. Why aren’t you asleep Ina?)”

Ina Moing placed her right hand on Nina’s shoulder,

“Anak. Anak ada nampak apa apa ka tadi? (Child. Did you happen to see anything just now?)”
“No Ina. It was dark so..”
“BETUL KA NI ANAK? (ARE YOU SURE CHILD?)”
“Iya Ina. Nina sumpah!! ( I swear. I don’t lie!)

Nina was sent off to bed afterwards. Nina couldn’t close her eyes and she started to sweat. She could hear chuckles from her left ear to her right. She took out her rosary beads and started to pray. Nothing she did would ease her. What’s worst. it started to rain. The branches from the tree knocked Nina’s windows caused by the wind. Lighting flashes every second. Loud thundering sounds resembles the sound of the drums she just heard from the kitchen. Her left shoulder started to hurt.

“Erghhh… what is wrong with me.. arghhh..”

Nina Sat up from her bed and took off her shirt. Bare naked, she took a mirror and a lighter and lit up the candle on the bed desk. She saw a red-blueish bruise on her shoulder. At first it looked like a map then it started to take it’s form. An eye.

  Early next morning, Nina woke up from the cold sweat and chills all over her body. She was half naked from the top. Her breast was bare. She quickly remembered the bruise. She took the mirror and reflected herself. 

“It’s gone..”

She shook her head thinking it was all a bad dream. Nina quickly dress herself and stepped out from her room. She notice something different. Something weird. She looked at her hands. It was covered with blood. She screams her lungs out. She trembles and fainted..
