Adventure Awaits!

My whole mood was wrecked meeting Thomas. I hated him to the core, I just hate him for abandoning me with that woman and her suave boyfriend for whom only my grades matter.

Unable to think straight, I stopped pedaling the bike and walked with my bicycle.

My mind rushed back to the dream I saw the very morning, the same dream I see every morning. Nevertheless, there is some urgency in the strong male voice today.

Why do I keep seeing the same dream almost every day? Should I visit some therapist or so? Will Mom think I have gone mad?

Pausing all the thoughts, I focused on reaching the Palace or whatever they call it. I don't understand from where they do get soo much enthusiasm to carry out those stupid research, which is useful to none.

Reaching the spot, I walked to punch my thumb only to hear moans, trying to see where they are coming from, I found Rupert groaning, filling him inside Lilac.

I was happy about them being busy as my work would go hassle free. Jumping at the sight I rushed towards the stairs only to be stopped by security personnel.

"No, you are not allowed in here" the guards didn't let me go near the steps.

"Look, George Francis has sent to me to click pictures and do some readings; I need to go and do that before he comes in here" I tried my level best to convince the beastly looking guards.

They looked at me from top to bottom, their expressions said they didn't believe in my story.

"Okay then, don't believe in me. Once he comes here and asks me the reason for the delay, I will point at you and he being my Father, will definitely take action against you people for not letting me do my work" I said in one go

I hate myself for using the word, but I couldn't help. The dream I saw in my sleep… the voice had urgency.

'I am waiting… come to me Queen'

Somehow I was haunted by the voice, I wanted to do everything in my hand to see what the mystery is.

"You may go," they opened the locks of the stairs for me. I wanted to jump high in the air. Refraining myself, I ran through the stairs carrying my backpack, and a camera dangling down my neck.

I was spell bound by the sight of the chandeliers present in the chamber, marveled at the sight of tall walls, I kept walking.

Squealing happily, I pooped gum out of the cover and threw my head back, happily chewing it.

I soo badly missed playing with gum rolling it around my tongue and fingers, I walked through the place, passing by a half-broken door I heard the pigeons rushing out sensing a human presence.

I longed to touch all those walls and somehow anticipation to explore grew within me. I wanted to absorb all of it, leaving no corner. A sense of inexpressible happiness bloomed within me as I walked through the remains of the place.

Walking through the forbidden entrances made me shrill in pleasure, popping the gum in my mouth, I rolled it around my finger. Chewing it until the gum withered out of the taste; I pulled it out of my mouth.

Making a ball out of the gum with my fingers, I stick that to the huge pillar, wide enough to swallow down two grown up humans. To my extreme surprise, the pillar opened up and I could see a door.

I was taken aback in surprise seeing the pillar getting wider and opening a door.

Is this the mystery George meant? What must be inside the door?

I pried it open slowly, It took a few minutes to open up. What it looked like is a deep cave. It looked like a closed alcove, surprised by the sight, I wanted to look behind.

Peering for further inspection, I jumped inside the open door of the pillar and walked through the alcove. Enthusiasm knew no bounds as I walked a little more and hearing a thud sound, I turned back; only to see the door being closed.

Rushing to the door, I tried opening it, I started banging on the door when it didn't open. A sudden panic rose within me as the door didn't move an inch.

Soon my body started sweating and I could sense my head spinning. The panic within me kept growing with every passing minute. I felt claustrophobic as the alcove had no air to breathe, feeling different sensations, I couldn't mutter a word.

I ran out of oxygen and started coughing badly, with panic and breathlessness all I could remember is my body hitting the ground, my cough echoing in my ears, and blackness engulfing all my senses.

~~~~~~~~~~

I sensed my body being ferociously moved, I could feel water over my face. I grunted irritated, my Mom would never change.

Wait… Mom? Did I pass out and they brought her here? In that case, she will kill me for trespassing. I am soo dead.

With sudden fear, I started praying internally to God, whom I believed never existed. I guessed the slow slaps landing on my cheeks as the efforts to wake me up.

Slowly I opened my eyes, trying to look weak so that I can save myself from my mother's wrath.

Rubbing my eyes open, I locked my eyes with a pair of eyes examining me.

"Are you the new intern? Or is there any costume party, themed Royal?" I asked looking at the woman before my eyes.

Her eyes looked as if she's trying to read me and before I can speak anything; she pulled a dagger out of somewhere God knows and it landed just an inch away from my neck.

"What the fuck? Is this any sort of prank being played upon me? If it is that let me tell you, I absolutely hate those stupid kinds of shit"

"Inform the King, we have a Secretive Agent" she screamed orders and my eyes fell on the well armored men. Now it's time for me to lose shit.
