Chapter 62: Through the Magic Curtain
The students were a bit apprehensive. They were not comfortable about going elsewhere but then at least Sherpa was with them and so were the 100 Orbs. The adventure of another dimension overweighed their apprehension and the quest for adventure won.
Lilly informed that the 100 Orbs will cover them and they would actually enter another world.
It would be like the stories they had read when they were in the early primary classes. So, they were going to relive their childhood.
They proceed through the tunnel and out of the cave. It was dark outside and all the Orbs were there to cover all of them. 100 to go with the students and Sherpa, 25 Orbs were there for the protection of the others and the rest of the 50 Orbs were guarding Lilly's workplace.
In 10 minutes they were outside the cave facing the mountain. Another few minutes walk took them to the base of the mountain. It was dark as night had fallen. A sharp turn brought them to a ledge which ran behind a waterfall.
Lilly asked them to walk carefully on the ledge. As it was quite wide they would not fall. The ledge went behind the waterfall. She had also informed them that they need to keep touching the rock surface as they passed. Behind the waterfall, the rock surface would have a phase where there would a false rock. This false rock was the entry to the other world. They just needed to walk through one after another.
Some of the Orbs were to lead the way, then one boy one girl would follow in that order and last would be Sherpa. All were to be surrounded by Orbs.
They were informed that in the other world, time for them here, would have stopped. It would have stopped for the persons left behind. But Lilly had synchronized their time with the time of the children in order to complete the reassembly of atoms experiment. Their time would, however, move very slowly as they were tied to the reassembling of the atoms. Theoretically, current time should stop till they came back but they needed to accomplish the reassembly of the atoms experiment. The students were told to accomplish their work and come back fast.
They all will be waiting for them to return form the magic world with the crystals.
Hence, 25 Orbs, as well as the Orb of Niel, were left protecting Lilly, Mono, Luke, and Zia. The 100 went onto the ledge to lead as well as protect the 10 students and Sherpa.
Soon they were walking in a single file on the ledge and towards the waterfall. The waterfall fell into a deep gorge. Nanu, Chris, and Tina were scared of heights. The rest of the group knew this but kept advising them to continue walking and not to look down where the waterfall fell.
Soon, some of the Orbs found the false rock behind the waterfall. It was just like an ordinary rock when you looked at it. The minute you touched it, it would be like an open door that cannot be seen but is camouflaged as a rock.
One after the other they all entered the hidden door and walked out to the other side which was the magical world.
The world they entered was unique. It was just like Earth with the sun in the sky on one side along with the clouds, grass, trees, shrubs, birds on the trees, fruits on the trees of all seasons, a few animals like rabbits and squirrels could be seen.
But then there was something different. Something was definitely different.
How come at one end the Sun was out and on the other side the moon was out in the sky along with the stars? It seemed as if the sky had been split up at the horizon to part the sky from the land and vertically from the day on one side and night on the other.
The extreme of the sky seemed to be in a dome shape. If one looked with great intensity at the joining of the night and day sky, there seem to be a band of space probably to let in meteorites, spaceships, etc.
Coming to the dayside, as the students were on the sunny side, they were looking at the wonderful grass with different shades of green. Trees were of all types and fruits of every season were found growing on the trees. Flowers of all shades of colors were also there. Some plants were the types you found on earth but some were completely unknown to mankind. There was a river too with different types of fish in them. There there were huge crystals that dotted the entire green grass which gave out immense sparkling light just like diamonds.
The children felt that these were the crystals. Zoya was more sensitive than the others so she tried to communicate with the Orbs. One of them came over and hovered above her head and tried to communicate with her telepathically. She first asked the Orb his/her name. It transpired that this Orb was a female and her name was Sheila.
She asked her about the place. Sheila told her that here you are not to touch anything without permission. You are not even to drink water without permission. All the living and non-living things communicate as per your understanding. That would mean telepathically or by words or by a voice in the sky.
Zoya, immediately told her co-students all the information that had been conveyed to her.
Sheila told her that even to sit on the grass or anywhere else please seek permission. The rules here are very strict and they would put you in jail for disobedience.
Zoya conveyed this information to all. Then she asked the grass. "May we sit on this lovely grass as we are all tired and want to rest a little before we proceed. We will be very grateful."
"Of course, you may but do not damage me!" that was the reply by the grass.
Thanking the grass, all the students and Sherpa sat down on the grass. The Orbs also sat on some rocks nearby. Naturally, they must have taken permission telepathically.
Just then a voice boomed from the sky, "Earthlings I bid you welcome to the 'Magical World'. I hope you enjoy your visit here."
