Chapter 19 Abaddon The Destroyer

That afternoon as if there had been ‘a big commotion’ in the dining room.

The soldiers who were eating seemed to dislike me and Mrs. Rose passed them. Their eyes glanced at me with unfriendly faces.

I felt guilty for making their leader namely Dragono and their friend, Codi, hit by a Vicko attack.

“Take it easy Moi, they should know this is a job risk and must be more vigilant in the future.” whispered Mrs. Rose to strengthen me.

“Ehmm… I feel guilty, Mrs. Rose. Will I visit to Leman this afternoon?” I answered while looking down to avoid the gazes of the soldiers.

“Be Calm Moi. Later let soldier Rupert and Doni take you and I’ll accompany you there. Leman isn’t aggressive.” said Mrs. Rose

“Moreover Codi has also recovered, what’s worse Dragono has a fracture in his jaw. Tomorrow or tonight the departure of Lord Jonah will be accelerated and also taking Dragono to surgery.”  

Wah, I felt accused. Dragono got hurt after Vicko met me.

“I hope Dragono recovers quickly, Mrs. Rose.”

After having lunch we went to Leman’s cell, Rupert the presenter and Doni walked in front of us. 

When we passed Henry’s cell, his hand extended out reaching for us.

“Moi, stop by here please. Do you pass up your boyfriend?” said Henry.

“Tomorrow, Henry, tomorrow I’ll. Today is very busy.” I answered while waving.

Passing Rado’s cell I was shocked by a throw of orange cloth that sticking out of his cell, while the other end was still in Rado’s hands. It was my orange scarf!

“Hi, pretty… stop by here with Brother Rado.” he exclaimed in a mocking tone.

“Hi, Rado. Tomorrow we will meet, be patient… ok?” 

I tried to remain calm to see the action that does not appreciate my present. The knit scarf made by mama, now the color was very shabby and dirty.

Rado pulled it again and wrapped the scarf around his neck.

“Hahaha… is it true, pretty? Tomorrow we will meet. We can meet the three of you, with your boyfriend. I promise I’ll be kind with him, not jealous and no human meat barbecue. hahaha.” Rado answered while sitting on his bed.

Turned out The Rado cell was more protruding into. Perhaps avoiding his hand reached for someone passing in front of him, so that the risk of discharging electricity from his hands didn’t occur to the person passing by and even reaching to the next trellis.

Rupert opened the small window in Leman’s cell and greeted, 

“Leman, you have a guest.”

I was grateful when the cell door was opened. There it seemed Leman was sitting casually on the edge of his bed. One foot rose while one foot stepped on the floor, his eyes looking at me and Mrs. Rose as if without burden, even his face looked cheerful when he saw me.

“Good afternoon, Mr. Leman.” I said.

Private Doni brought plastic chair and distributed it to Mrs. Rose and me.

“Let’s come in, just relax, Miss… what’s your name, Miss?” he answered.

“Moi… Moira.” I replied happily because of Leman’s friendly response.

“Oh yeah, Moi. Moira is a good name. What wind does bring Missmoira here?” he said with a chuckle.

“Just want to visit Mr. Leman. How are you, sir?”

“I’m fine, Miss Moi. Just to be aware of the situation here, knowing there are a lot of soldiers and non-soldiers.” said Leman, smiling faintly.

“What do you mean, people aren’t soldiers, sir?” I asked.

“Oh… there is a strong, Miss. Sometimes want to borrow my body, the strong person has millions of years of wandering, his body is large fill my cell, his face resembles a human skull. Sometime ago he stopped by here. Actually he’s insolent, he want mischievous to me. Fortunately I don’t want to.” Leman explained but confused me.

Mrs. Rose elbowed my shoulder and showed me the paper that said ‘skizo’ to me. I smiled at her in understanding. 

“How come Mr. Leman knows that the strong man is millions of years old?” I asked curious.

“Yes, Miss. I know because he introduces himself and he is greedy, insatiable, covetous to treasure and crazy to throne.”   

“May I know when he introduced himself, what was his name, Mr. Leman?” interrupted Mrs. Rose

Leman frowned,

“His name is quite strange, Rose. He said Abaddon, the destroyer.”

“Abaddon has come here, gee…” said Mrs. Rose

“But he can’t be underestimated Rose. He is a thirsty and hungry creature and is constantly looking for prey.It’s the soul to be destroyed. Never satisfied before the goal is reached And he visit here have the aim of destroying the soul of the residents.” 

“Mr. Leman, yesterday when Moi came for the first time with Mrs. Rose, you were flying. What did you feel?” I asked, changing the subject.

“Flying? Ah, who flies? There just nothing.” Leman answered with astonishment.

“Oh, does that mean Mr. Leman doesn’t feel it? How can Mr. Leman have various fighting moves like snake, tiger, monkey, stork when fighting?” I asked further.

“Oh, for those moves, I just invite those who have fighting moves and then I can do it myself, after all I do like martial arts, miss. Do you want me to teach you, miss? Do you have basic of martial arts?” Leman asked.

“Can’t do martial arts, Mr. Leman, just eating and sleeping. Hahaha…” answered Mrs. Rose 

“When the martial arts level is good and you have self-awareness, so your chakra is open. If your chakra is open, the information of universe is opened to you. When I met you at first time, actually I knew about you in the past, you have the soul of La Pucelle, full of grace. A strong and brave girl who is protected.” said Leman.

“Yes, she is indeed a great and brave girl, Mr. Leman.” praise Mrs. Rose

I smiled, between believing and not, between being flattered and ludicrous. There had been two ‘strange’ people who flattered me and thought I was great, they are Risty and Leman. 

“But remember miss, Abaddon really dislikes you because you can destroy his plans. You have to learn more and be equipped so that you are strong in dealing with it. If you want to and are ready, I’ll open your seven chakras, so you become a complete human being.” Leman said as if chasing me.

A complete human?

Leman made up, psychiatric disturbed because too often see other worlds like Ron and maybe Leman himself? 

I shook my head, 

“For today Moi is not yet, Mr. Leman. Maybe the next meeting with Mr. Leman, after Moi started martial arts. Teach me, sir.”

“Now, Mr. Leman, please fill out the test first, okay?”

I gave the psychological test file to be answered by Mr. Leman. Approximately one and a half hours the test had been completed by Leman.

Leman was quite cooperative.

“Thank you, Mr. Leman, for your willingness to fill the test. Later Moi will be learnt martial arts, sir.” I said while shaking Leman’s hand.

“Frequently stop by here, miss. You have a great soul. I’ve never misjudged people. Since the first day I saw you, you were very special indeed. Even Abaddon is after you, develop yourself.” 

“Yes, Mr. Leman, there is still a lot of work to do, but surely Moi will soon visit Mr. Leman. Moi has a lot to learn from you.” I smiled, but my heart ached remembering that in a few days Leman would risk his only life to be pitted with fighters. Who would be brought by Lord Jonah here?

I and Mrs. Rose came out of Leman’s cell and walked together forward, as usual Henry was screaming, 

“Moi, bad you are. You just skip me. Let’s break up… Ugh…”

I smiled and waved again, I was also embarrassed to be yelled by henry in front of the soldiers who were guarding in front of his cell. 

At a glance I heard Rado was singing in his shrill voice, who knows what song, seemed to insinuate us.

We walked to the place where our room was while chatting.

“Moi, try to recapitulate this test, Mrs. Rose. Moi see there is a use of psychotropic drugs to overcome his schizo, don’t I?” I asked, opening a document about Leman.

“Yes Moi, I give haloperidol drop which was mixed into his drink. Because it was bitter, we mixed it into tea or fruit juice every day. It had to be disguised because Leman don’t want to take medicine.” explained Mrs. Rose

I think, the diagnosis was made that Leman was schizophrenic because he saw things that other humans did not, with his PTSD history.

“Okay, Mrs. Rose, see you later at dinner. Moi continue Moi’s work first.” I said while I opened the door of my room.

Suddenly heard,

Whir… whir… 

The sound of a helicopter was roaring above my head. I and Mrs. Rose looked up.

“Oh, Lord Jonah’s and Dragono’s pickup helicopters have arrived. It means tomorrow Dragono must be operated on.” mumbled Mrs. Rose

“Let’s go to Lord Jonah’s office, Moi.”

We returned to Lord Jonah’s office. After knocking on the door, the door opened.

“Good evening Lord Jonah. Have you been ready to return to the capital?” asked Mrs. Rose seeing Lord Jonah getting ready with his bags.   

“Because of that stubborn kid, I have to hurry back.” grumbled Lord Jonah, glancing at me.

“Forgive Moi, Lord Jonah. Moi made the situation like this.” I said scared.

“The situation like this? You harm so much, kid! Dragono should have been in charge of this island when I wasn’t here. Fortunately Codi recovered so no need to be taken to the capital. You really harm! Once again you don’t obey me, watch you!” Said Lord Jonah while turning to me. His eyes bugged out like a wild animal about to prey on his prey. 

“Forgive Moi, Lord… Jonah.” I said choked up while looking down.

“When I left, this kid can’t research Vicko, Rado and Leman first. Watch her well Rose, she’s your responsibility!” said Lord Jonah while pointing to Mrs. Rose’s face.

“Now all of you are out, I want to lock the office. All of you out!”

I and Mrs. Rose hurried out. Immediately I ran to my room leaving them.

When I arrived in the room, I calmed down myself. My heart was beating fast.My knees were still trembling, my palms and legs felt cold.

Only ten minutes to calm down myself, came Henry’s voice in my mind.

“Moi, hi Moi… how are you?”

“You’ve heard Hen, Dragono had fracture mandibular because Vicko was angry blindly. Lord Jonah blames me even though it was Codi who provoked Vicko.” I answered via telepathy. 

“Feel it. That arrogant king Kong deserves to die, just because his body is large. It is thought that Vicko is unable to fight it. Be careful, the situation here gets worse. Security is weak.” Henry advised me.

It turned out I was not the only one who didn’t like Dragono, Henry hated him too.

“Weak security might be our chance to run away, Hen. You are watchful too.Take care of your health. If the time is possible, who knows we can leave, somehow the way.”

“I also don’t want to enter telepathic traffic, Moi. Yesterday and today I just stayed silent first. I prepared my mind so that I could face Alfa in this telepathic path. You could say I am the strongest about telepathy, why can someone I don’t know be stronger than me about telepathy?” Henry was astonished.

“Keep your condition Henry. I also want to know the test results from Leman. I want to submit the report later when Lord Jonah comes back. I also want to develop myself and learn a lot from the metaphysical abilities of all who are here. After having dinner, I have to ask about Wi-Fi password on Jeff.”

“Equip yourself Moi. We don’t know when we can use it. Who knows, with our abilities put together, it can be a way to get out of this damned place. Good night, beautiful girl. Don’t forget that I’m visited tomorrow.” Henry said goodbye from me.

“See you tomorrow, handsome.” I praised who was not inferior to Henry’s.

After having dinner with Mrs. Rose, I walked into the front room where Jeff used to work.

“Good night Jeff, I need a Wi-Fi network to find literature references for my report. Can I?”

Jeff answered my request reluctantly and without even looking at me.

“This is the password. I’m turning on the Wi-Fi now.” 

Jeff handed me a piece of paper.I received a paper with password writing.

Jeff glanced at me briefly. The bespectacled young man then engrossed himself in his own world in front of his laptop.

Actually I want to make small talk, be friendly with Jeff. But from the gesture of his body, it was very clear he didn’t want to be disturbed at this time.

“Thanks Jeff. Good night.”

Jeff didn’t answer. Instead he raised the cup and drank it as if ignoring my presence.

I held back my frustration and walked back to my room.I worked with high concentration. 

It was very quiet here.Actually it was nice to work too. If I were a writer, I think I could quickly give birth to a novel or two here.  

I remembered Risty, the girl was full of enthusiasm and never gave up. With her physical condition like that, she was inspired to make a book. I really took my hat off to her.

The internet connection at Chimera was quite strong. Immediately I got a few references that I needed.

I was tempted to open my android phone.  

It was time to send the SOS signal to people I trusted. I considered that if I sent it to my mama and little brother William, there would have been a big uproar in the house and they were terrorized by Lord Jonah’s accomplices in the capital.My first thought immediately focused on Adrian. 

When he could catch my SOS signal, at least he tried to find its connection to save me or at least if I died here, someone would find out.

I got hope when I looked at the green circle in Adrian’s name. The man happened to be online too.

‘Yahoo, Adrian… How are you?’ I type quickly. 

‘Hi hiii, Moi. I guess you forgot me. I’m doing well, Moi. How are you?’ Adrian answered immediately.

I cheered because of getting Adrian’s answer. Now I was no isolated from the outside world. I connected with Adrian. What should I tell him about? Can I tell everything that happened here to him? 

‘Adrian, I want to tell you a lot.’

‘Ow… good.Me too, Moi.’

‘Seriously Ad. I want to tell you something here.’

‘What conditions, why are you so serious, is it nice there?’

‘How can be nice? The conditions here are imprisoned, can’t get out.’

‘Imprisoned it mean can’t get out, Moi… if it’s easy to get out it’s not a prison.’ Adrian saidand then sent two emoticons laughing. 

‘You forget me, is there anyone saucy there?’

My mind flew, saucy? There was Henry, Doctor Stephan who was also quite saucy but his nature was moody and tired and macho dragono. 

‘I’m seriously. Here is exactly the same as Alcatraz prison.’

“Ah, the occupants must be mobsters. Is there really a mobster?”

Mobster here? There was, Adrian. My mind went to Lord Jonah. My hand stopped on the keypad. Did I dare to tell the situation here to outsiders Chimera? 

‘Moi… the typing took so long, what’s up?’

Before I could move my fingers back to the chat Adrian, came a reply as if from me.

‘Jeez, hahaha… catch you, Adrian.’

‘Ouch, Moi. I get nervous, you know?’

‘It’s very cool here, Adrian. Good person. The food is delicious, my work is also light.’

‘Good. I’m happy for your luck. Enjoy your work. Can I visit there?’

‘Unfortunately not, Ad. Outsiders are not allowed to enter here and here the warehouse of handsome, saucy and rich men.’

My eyes watered at the conversation that kept rolling, between Adrian… and who hacked my mobile phone. My android keyboard couldn’t react to my touch. My mind immediately fixed to Jeff!

Jeff the Hacker!  

I was still trying to press the keypad of my mobile phone, but not a single letter appeared in the conversation. 

‘My place of work is surrounded by the sea. I can play on the beach as long as I want. The waves are also quite calm. If you like to eat clams, there are many clams on the beach here, it’s big and accompanied by my new romantic friend, Henry and Vicko who is dashing. It feels like paradise.’

‘Jeez… if I’m not allowed to visit, don’t be lure like that…’ Adrian replied. 

‘Moi, are you kidding or something? I didn’t think you were.’ appeared the emoticon crying from Adrian’s chat.

A photo appeared that I was hugging Henry as if I had sent it!

‘Ok, Moi. Be happy there.’ Adrian chatted.

My face seemed to be pulled down.a burst of heat filled my face. I rose to my feet annoyed and half ran to Jeff’s office.

‘Yeah, this is borrowing office Wi-Fi. Ok, I think enough until here Adrian. I have to work again.’ 

‘Ok… ok… success, Moira. See you in five months later.’ there was still a reciprocal chat on my android.

When I was lacking a few steps from Jeff’s works, I saw my android. The conversation was over. 

I opened the door and burst in.

“Hey, Moi.” Jeff greeted while glancing.

“Are you satisfied with screwing it up?” I asked annoyed.

“Hey… you’re so emotional, Moi. Adrian, uhm… Your old boyfriend’s style of conversation is cool too, hihihi…” Jeff chuckled

I took deep breaths a few times, managed the thunderous anger in my chest. I understood Jeff was the same as Dragono, the two men had been ordered to watch me closely. 

I felt I was going to crazy. I couldn’t ask anyone for help. All my accesses were monitored, even hijacked.

“Adrian is not my boyfriend.” I said. 

Jeff knew that I was scared here, so I had to calm down. Didnot let fear dominate me.

“You have no right to hijack my account, Jeff. You know privacy, don’t you?”

“And you know too that you are under contract to this country, Miss. Have you forgotten? Alcatraz? What is that? If Lord Jonah knows that you equate Chimera with Alcatraz, I don’t know what his reaction. You also know for sure that everything here is a state secret.”

“I didn’t tell Adrian anything. Can’t I say hello to my friend?”

“Say hello, what? If I don’t take over quickly, I don’t know what you might tell to Adrian. I’ll bet, you will definitely tell him about the Vicko duel.” Jeff’s tone rose.

Jeff’s words were really stricken my heart. 

I was silent, but my heart admitted. At first I wanted to tell all the horrors of Chimera to Adrian and tried to ask for help that I was trapped here.

“I won’t tell this to Lord Jonah. I don’t want my hands covered in your blood. Let’s just say it’s our secret. Once again you try to send a chat outside, about the badness of Chimera. I’ll report to Lord Jonah who has hated you so much. So, how? Do you still jeopardize this project or do you want to use your brain to keep working here?And do you want to thank me now, Moi?” Jeff got up and walked around his desk to approach me.

“Can you imagine your actions endangering the top brass here? If the project is reviewed by the press or community, so the research here can be disbanded. In fact, of course you know, there are people with no identity who are apparently still maintained here.”

“This internet access is the military’s, Moi. It is under the national security department, then your chat endangers the stability of the country, General Manton must be fired and I guarantee that your family will disappear too!”

“Jeff, I really don’t understand all of your attitudes and actions. Where is your conscience Jeff? A dozen people died here in the duel arena. Will you be silent? All the blood money went into Lord Jonah, is your conscience not disturbed at all?”

Jeff shrugged his shoulders. A moment later he folded his arms in front of his chest. His body leaned against the table. His legs were crossed. He adjusted his glasses.

“Then, what should you do, Moi? Ask for help to your boyfriend in the capital? Hahaha… what can he do?” Jeff’s laughs as if strengthen my stupidity.

“We can get out of here, Jeff. With your computer skills, we can get out of this prison together.”

“Together? With anyone? The sick people are all?” said Jeff spicily.

“Then, what do you mean? We can invite others to get out of here together.”

Jeff took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. The man looked at me without glasses.

“I admit that you are quite beautiful, Moi. Maybe your beauty can melt the hearts of Henry and Adrian, but I don’t. I won’t be influenced by your charm.”

“My charm? What? Damn, I don’t have the slightest thought in seducing you, Jeff. You don’t harass me!” My tone was high. 

“Just now you vehemently invited me out of here. Doesn’t that mean you care about me? Do you like me secretly?” a smile on his face that was annoying to me.

I almost choked on Jeff’s question. It was very insulting because he won the position as it was today.  

“For me, Chimera is heaven. Here I am free to do everything I want. I’m also safe protected. I guess you have known the background of my life, haven’t you? My position has been international class in the business of hacking.”

“Being in the real world there is no place for me anymore. My reputation has been tarnished because my naughtinesshacked into the country’s vital sites.”

“If here, I not only get the trust but also I have the power to oversee the entire island. You people of psychology, of course understand correctly, that all people need these three things. Trust, power and get big money.” Jeff sighed.

“Those three things I got here in Chimera. So why do I have to get out of my paradise?”

“Too bad Jeff, your hands are tied to what you should know is not true. The longer you stay here, you will…” 

Jeff stepped and stopped right in front of me. 

“What will it be?”

“You will be the same as Lord Jonah that sadistic, cruel, his conscience dead.”

“I have a goal. If we are in a team… ah, no. Now you just go back to work or take rest. It’s night now. It’s also not good for both of us if other people see us together in my office like this, late at night.” Jeff said while back away from me and returned to his desk. 

“You don’t understand anything, Moi. My activities are watching, not only you but the whole island. Besides I get a bit coin bonus from Lord Jonah, I can raise it for my freedom later. Because I obey Lord Jonah, of course I will be prioritized to free later.”

“Yes Jeff, I know.” I opened the door.

“Just do your job and don’t try to complain about everything here. There’s only a few moments left and we will all be free.”

My steps stopped, 

“We will all be free?”

Jeff smiled and said, 

“Prove my words, boss. Yes, we will all be free soon. Now you just do your best to record and research your psychology. I’m sure your life will be fun later. If you are selfish and obtrude, look because of your actions, Dragono’s jaw is fracture. Your work must be commensurate. Give the best. Do your job well.”

I left Jeff’s room. My brain whirled and re-understood Jeff’s words.

We will all get out of here, soon…

Jeff was very trusted by Lord Jonah, with his closeness, did Lord Jonah tell Jeff? When was the project closed?
