The Dream Catcher: Ch-10 The Journey begins

 


 

                 Ch-10

 

 

Mr. Viego was a very cheerful and charming person. His laugh would give me goosebumps. He was huge but his fur was as soft as cotton. At times, he would let me sleep on his fur which felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. We had no idea at anytime whether day was going on or night because we were underground. The tunnel was also always dark. We only had one source of light that was a corn like structure to me which Mr. Viego always kept hanging on his arm. He used to light it after every 5 hours.

 

He used to ask me about my world and my family. He was very fascinated on hearing about my school, my family and the rules we had. I felt like he had never experienced things like that. He was becoming more sad as I was telling him how I enjoyed with grandpa. I noticed something dark green coming out of his eyes. He wiped it immediately. I gave him my hankerchief I had in my pocket. He hugged me tightly. I also made him feel comfortable. The green substance was none other than his tears. I enquired the reason for his crying. He told that he also had a grandfather in this world only whom he loved a lot. He was only his family and only one who loved him. I too had tears in my eyes. I said to him that I also loved him to bits and granny too a lot. And I gave him a hug. I felt like everything was alright and to get better.

 

We both slept that night well. Next morning, we were woken up by a thumping above our heads. Mr. Viego picked me up and started get rolled and run. I was terrified. I could not even utter a word. He stopped and kept me down. He calmed me down and told me that the thumping was done by the yellow-coloured eagles. He told that they were the predators. They were their enemies. They could even eat them alive. He said that it was time was the real journey to start.

 

The first step was to get out of the tunnel. To do this we had to go through many dangers and the last and the most dangerous one was siam pal. He told that the first danger was 10 jims away which was equal to 75 kilo meters away We kept on walking for days and days. My legs pained so much that I could not feel them. We only can some amount of food and water which was also over now. Finally after almost 2 weeks, we reached our first danger, siam pal.

The Dream Catcher: Ch-9 Mr. Viego

                                                                           Ch-9               Mr. Viego With teary eyes, I left the cave and the tunnel was a complete puzzle. I had nothing with me except a flute which I did not even know had what use to me. The tunnel was dark, gloomy and frightening. Grandma's thoughts were also roaming around my head. The walls of the tunnel were covered with algae and beachdrops .  Some plants completely triggered me as they had colours which I had never seen and shapes which were unacceptable. Some were like a ball with such a thin skin that every part within them was visible. Interior of them was a complete rainbow. These ones were the smallest but the prettiest to me. Other were irregular in shape. But all had their own w...

The Marvel of Science-Maglev train

Image
Hey explorers! Want to get lost in the world of science? Science has given us many valuable things in our lives. The world of science is a different world. Let me show you guys a small part of it. You guys must have seen various types of trains but have you ever seen a train which works with magnets? Yes, there exists such a train which is called 'Maglev train'.  It works on the principle of repulsion in magnets. In it, two sets of electro magnets are used. One to repel and push the train up off the track and the other to move the elevated train ahead by taking the advantage of the lack of friction. By this way, the train rises approximately 4 inches off the track. The electro magnets control the stability and speed of the train. It has a speed of 600 kilometers per hour. Currently, it is in countries like South Korea, Japan and China. The fun part is that it travels faster than a bullet train! Young scientists, the question I ha...
