The Prayers and Busted

Nurul's POV


I can't believe it we're here in Slugterra. Now me and my siblings just have to pray cause its the time is for Zuhur. We manage to find a crystal clear river.


"Okey, adik letak semua barang pada pokok itu dan ambil air sembahyang di sini. Akak ambil di belakang belukar tu. Naf kamu tengok atas mereka, okey?", I sak. "Okay guys, put your things at that tree and take ablution here. I will take it behind that bush. Naf, you watch over them okay?".


"Kenapa akak nak ambil di belakang tu dan tak ambil di sini?", Nafiz asks. "Why do you have to take there and why not here?".


"Kerana akak kena tutup aurat. Akak takut ada orang nampak, okey?". "Because I have to cover my genitalia. I'm afraid that someone would watch, okay?".


He nodded. I smile and put my thing new this mushroom or what ever it is and go behind the bush. Behind it, I took of my hood and let my hair down. My hair is in a braid and was let down on my left shoulder. Then Flare came though the bush.


"Flare look out. I don't want anyone to see me dan pergi tengok adik-adik saya tu", I said to my slug. "And go take care of my brothers and sister".


She did a solute and keep on guard. Its a good thing that she understands Bahasa Melayu. I put my hands into the cold water and I start taking the ablution.


Eli's POV


The gang and I are watching the new surfcers. I think their harmless. We see them stoping near a river and they their things near a mushroom tree. The older girl goes behind a bush but it only cover the side and backs but not the front, which is facing the river. The gang and I decided that I watch the older girl and they watch the young ones.


I hide behind bush across the river and watch her talking of her hood. Wow, she looks amazingly stunning. Her raven black hair was in a braid and was let down on her left shoulder. Then I see something that I can't believe, an Infurnes slug coming through the bushes. I though I have the only one. She was talking to it but I can't make it out. The slug then solutes and go off to watch the young ones.


She then put her hands in the water and begin to I think an ablution. I read about Islamic doing that before their prayers. After that, the slug comes back with a towel on top of her. She then opens her bag and took out some kind of long veil but its not see through and a large skirt which covers the entire lower half of her. The little girl is wearing the same but the boys aren't. Then three of them lay some kind of mat and all of them stand on it.


One of the boys stay on the front,the other is in the middle and girls are at behind. Then they start, I don't know something. After a few minutes, they finish and put away their things. The older girl took out the same hood but a dark blue one, with a brooch and a mirror. She put on the hood and she look like before.


We quickly cross the river and hide behind a bush and we can hear them talking clearly.


"Akak, sekarang kita buat apa?", the boy with an orange sweater said. "Sis, now what do we do".


"I think we should fine somewhere to rest for the night", the older girls said. Finally! They talk English. Kord accidentally step on a twig and it snap making a sound.


"Akak bunyi apa itu?", said the little girl scaredly while hiding behind the older girl's legs. "Sis what is that sound?".


The older girl takes a hold on a branch and gets ready to fight. She told them to stay behind her.


"Who's there? Come on, now", she demanded.


"Time to face the music", I said to the gang and one by one we came out.
