Trapped in Time

What would happen if you got stuck in Time? Zia has completed her Ph.D. in Botany and has applied for the post of lecturer/ Professor. She joins a High school as a temporary teacher and is entrusted with the task of leading a group of ten students on a trekking /camping expedition. On the way they meet a guy who seems to be a trouble maker but later, he proves to be a pillar of strength. Early morning their camp is attacked by Bears and they flee taking a different route. But they are lost. They enter a lost world where people are living, in hiding, for over 250 years. Their technology is much advanced as compared to ours. Their world is called ‘Utopia’ but now it is changing due to an oppressive ruler, meaning the ills of our world have manifested in Utopia too. They are trapped in the time of this hidden world and want to help the people there fight against the oppressive ruler and his cronies. The oppressive ruler wants to make a number of Time Machines by using the brains of the scientists who died in harness at the site of the experiments. They all decide to help the good citizens of ‘Utopia’ the lost world. The huge brains are destroyed and the Orbs of the scientists escape from the huge pulsating Brain to help them in their mission of destroying the Huge brains at other centers. In this process, the crystals that are used in the hypnotizing guns are almost finished and to get more they split up to go to the 'Magical World' through a curtain which is actually a portal. The Magical World is a flat man made Earth-like satellite, which was made as a joke to taunt the scientists 7000 years ago, and which is still operational. Here they meet the inhabitants. They are fascinated with the advancement of science especially the talking chips and the flying cars. They see a completely different world where animals, plants, rocks, water etc. can talk. Before you touch anything you need to seek permission. They also meet the Aliens called the 'Crocodile Race' who have come to the Magical World (the flat satellite) to get supplies. They see a spaceship being guided to land by the scientists of the Magical World. They also see the inside of the mountain where the controls are situated which help in maintaining the environment of the Magical World. They get an invite from the Aliens to visit ‘Titan’ the satellite of Saturn where the Crocodile race has settled. At present they are on the mother Ship going to Titan. **************************** Will try to post a chapter in a week now.

Briefing about Utopia

Aarnav had just introduced his daughter, Aarti, to the group. He had informed them that she had cooked their breakfast today.

Everyone, met Aarti, Aarnav's daughter and complimented her on her excellent cooking.

Aarti was of Sherpa's age and a beautiful lady, Sherpa saw her and could not stop staring at her. He got zapped.

Till date he had not met any woman who could hold his attention. Aarti was not only beautiful but was an excellent cook. He could cook but Aarti was an extremely good cook. It reminded him of his childhood and his mother's cooking.

Aarti was also in a similar state in mind and heart. She had been informed by her father about these guests from Earth who had traveled via Utopia. She was happy to cook for them. This was the first time she was meeting the Earthlings. They were just like the people of the Magical World. After all they were the source from where the Magical World traced their ancestors.

Aarnav was amused at the situation. He had already guessed and did not feel offended. It was perfectly natural. If his daughter wanted to further the relationship, he would not have any objection as Sherpa was a responsible person. She would be in safe hands. Only thing that would worry him was not going to Earth often to visit his daughter and vice versa.

"What am I thinking ?" Aarnav shook his head and thought that it was indeed bad for him to do wishful thinking. He should not not want something to materalise when there was nothing.

Aarnav addressed the children,"I hope all have finished breakfast, don't go yet, the elders are coming in for a briefing and I would want you to listen too."

Pull up the chairs kept against the wall for yourself as we need to vacate the seats at the table for the Elders." Aarnav got up from his chair beside the table and headed to the wall to pull up a chair for himself. Everyone did so. As soon as the chairs had been pulled up, the door opened and the Elders walked in.

They were asked to take their seat at the table by Aarnav. ^ Elders had turned up. 3 women and 3 men. The two Elders who had gone with Nanu, Zen and the 50 Orbs came is as soon as the 6 Elders had taken their seats. They stood at the other end of the table.

"Simba and Stephan, please take your seats," said one of the 6 Elders.

Simba and Stephan pulled out their seats and sat down. The Elder who had asked them to sit down spoke," Simba and Stephan, please describe in detail to us what happened after you went through the Rock and waterfall portal?"

"Well, We walked towards the rocky area and went through a disguised rock wall. On the other side was a waterfall." Simba replied.

'But there was a ledge that went all the way behind the waterfall and we all walked on it and were glad to reach firm ground."

"Surprisingly, we saw some persons returning and we followed them to Lilly's room," Stephan added. "Apparently, as Aarnav had said, time had stopped for them."

"We meet Lilly, Mono, Luke and Zia in the lab." Simba added and he further remarked,"After a cool drink we headed back and they left us at the ledge."

"There was no need to use the jetpacks, however, we had doned on the invisible cloaks, hence no one could see us. Then there was immense light given out by the Orbs, which covere us from any lookout posts." Stephan added.

"As we came back into the Magical World through the waterfall and rock curtain, we saw Aarnav and the Children walking towards the guest house and the dorms." Samba remarked.

"Oh yes, they could only hear our voices but could get glimpses of our legs which got exposed whenever there was a gust of wind." He added.

"They told us all this and then we removed our invisible cloaks."Samba responded and added further, "There is a manufacturing defect in the cloaks which need to be removed."

" By the way, we narrated your message to Lilly and Mono indicating that they were the future rulers of Utopia," he remarked in a thoughtful mood.

"Lilly and Mono had looked surprised, I do not think they had any thoughts along those line," Stephan added.

"OK...! you all did a good job," one of the Elders remarked.

"We need to take up the matter of the children going to Titan by boarding their spaceship," responded the 2nd Elder.

"Yes of course..! " remarked a third Elder.

"I think I will talk on the subject," the third Elder, who was a lady, replied.

The rest of the Elders gave a slight nod of their heads, meaning that she could proceed.

"Sherpa, the 8 children and 50 Orbs will be going to Titan. I have not been to Titan, so I cannot explain to you how it is."

"But since you are on the Magical World and have seen the development here, you can guess that their development in so far as science and technology is concerned, is much advanced."

"As Aarnav had advised you, time here will stop for you, as soon as you leave the Magical World. It will only restart for you when you come back."

'The space ship that will carry you from the Magical World is just a transport ship. The main ship is outside the atmosphere of the Magical World. You transport ship will log into it. It is huge and practicially a full city moving in space."

"Technical details will be explained by the Crocodile Race. I understand that they have no problem taking you to their world. But remember, that you should keep close to each other not deviate in your resolve to return house along the return path that you will take. If any one of you decided not to return, it can be problamatic for that person e.g., he will no longer exist on earth but may exist as a shadow on Titan."

"Aarnav may be in a better position to respond to this thought of mine," saying this the Elder turned towards Aarnav.

I have yet to analyse that issue," Aarnav replied.

I think we should disperse now."

"Aarnav..! You need to tie up with the Crocodile race as to what time, the children and Sherpa need to reach the base for boarding the ship."

"Also send the children for rest and also to pack their things. After lunch, maybe late afternoon, the spaceship will take off."

Saying this, all the Elders got up and left the dinning room. Aarnav, Sherpa and the 8 children then got up and proceededto their dorms.
