Chapter 12 (Yet Another Life)

Chapter-12
THE FOREST GHOSTS


While resting he thought it would have been atleast twelve hours when he started for his journey . The biggest question in his mind was that , whether Rob's mother is still alive or something wrong has happened . But he has no way to know about it. He could not return now because he was now too far from that place. He also thought about that boy whom he saved from that well.He was thinking Why was he here? Why he just went off without saying him anything? He guessed that boy might be here in this forest for the same reason he was here. He should also be having his dear person struggling with life and that's why he came here to save them . This all were just Danyal's thoughts , he did not exactly know what was the real thing? Danyal has now accepted this world as his part , and adapted to it well to which he considered one of his dreams.

After sometime he stood up to continue his journey . He decided this work given by Mr James Andy should be done today itself , otherwise it will be too late. He could not risk Mrs Andy's life. So with full enthusiam started with his search again. But when he was on his way this time , he felt as if someone or something is following him .But whenever he turned back, he found no one. This happened for many times . But Danyal was sure that someone is following . For a moment he thought about the same boy he saved . But it was not visible at all. But at last Danyal gathered courage and spoke loudly looking everywhere . "Please, show yourself, what do you want from me?" For a moment there was complete silence . Danyal was looking here and there , with a hope that the invisible will show himself . It really did. Now Danyal can see him clearly. He was of a light yellow-green color. That person looked even more dangerous than the people in the dead world look . Danyal predicted him to be ghost and was unable to believe what his eyes were seeing.


He introduced himself "Im Danyal Stone , Who are you?".
That creature spoke "I am the ghost of the forest."
Danyal asked "What do you want from me , why are you following me?"
He replied "Danyal , I know why you are here , to save someone's life,many come here to do it but fail , I have asked a task to many but no one has ever helped me. I ask you too Danyal to do a task for me . The place or thing you are searching for can only be searched by a person from the real world . I am a ghost, so I cant do this"
Danyal asked "Which task? "
The Ghost replied " I am Brad Mark , I was killed 10 years ago by a person named Robert, who wanted my wife desperately , who loved her a lot.It was a one sided love. He was a mad guy , a guy mad in love . So, to get her, he killed me with a pistol and when my wife tried to escape from him , he killed her too. He was then killed in the police encounter after some months. Till then we still lived here happily in the dead world by that period. But when he too came here , destroyed our whole life , he tried to kill me and my wife again.Unfortunately my wife got killed again. If any one dies in this world , it means complete disappearing. No existence of it remains. I am not a ghost of this place, with my choice. I had to , Danyal. Any crime committed in the dead world , its punishment is to continue the life forever as a ghost. Iam really tired of this life Danyal from 9 years. No life, no feel , no touch,no love just nothing. I was blamed to kill my sweet wife whom I loved her lot and that mad guy has escaped again. Why is it always so Danyal ,that Life takes exam always of the innocent, I just don't understand it?
Danyal was moved by the story, he felt pity on him. He then asked "So Mr Mark, what do you want from me?"
He replied I want an end of the guy who killed my wife , and I dont want to be a ghost any more Danyal , its really enough now , I cant bear it any more. I dont know how will you do this Danyal, but if you do this, you will really get something special .
Danyal after thinking a lot " Ok I'll see Sir, if I can do something, now please excuse me I am in a hurry. Before that will you please tell me what does this sentence mean - Find no color ,under the cover. I found this written in a box , given by my Uncle."
Brad Mark replied "This box is given to those who are in a mission of saving someones life. Every box contains a different clue Danyal , only who is committed for saving a life ,can only see this clue. I have been asked different clues many times. But its really difficult to figure it out. Only I know a thing is the path you need to follow is this. Everyone who has succeeded has returned from this path." He showed him a path which was very much dark surrounded on both by trees.
Danyal thanked him and promised him that he will definitely try to do his work and continued his journey.

Chapter 11(Yet Another Life)

Chapter-11
STRUGGLING DEEP INSIDE



Danyal when woke up , he found himself alone. The boy to whom he helped last night was not with him. He felt really very bad . He waited there for him sometime thinking that he would have gone somewhere for any other reason and will return. But when he didnt return , Danyal again alone in that forest moved . While he was walking , for an instant he remembered what was written on that small paper "Search for no colour , under the cover". He again took that box out and opened it . He was looking under the cover of the box as if something is hidden inside it . At last found that there was nothing under the cover of that box. But what did the sentence actually mean he was thinking on it .What is no colour ? What is under cover? He was now very much confused about what to do and what not to do .Then a thought came in his mind about the well that it is also a source of water . He thought that boy was not accidentally inside the well it was intentional . He thought there must be something inside that well because of which the boy went inside. Then he also decided to get inside that well.

Then he started making a plan , how to get inside that well . After satisfied with his own thinking he tied the same rope with which he saved that boy to the branch of a tree very near to the well and tied the other end to himself so that if any problem occurs inside he could easily overcome that and come outside the well easily .It was a day time , so he was now at a less fear . He had almost forgotten what was the main reason for which he came here this very long alone , without any help . It was for Rob's mother who was struggling for her life and the Danyal was the one who had to save her .The only thought in his mind was to find something in that well. He now stepped inside that well , holding a brick one by one and stepping down one by one. Slowly and slowly now reached near the water which was very much deep from the top. Now Danyal had to think that whether he should go inside the water and see what lies in there or he should search for something in the walls of the well. So he thought that searching in the walls is more easy than going inside that dirty brown water.

But the thing now was that , what he should search . He had almost had a round of that well searching . He found nothing specific and striking over the walls . So the next plan was to go inside that water . He now untied him and jumped inside that water . Luckily he knew to swim . The water was so brown that he could not see anything clearly inside . Then also he did not give up , he kept on searching and searching inside. For a moment he comes out for some air and then again jumps inside . He did this many times , but still did not succeed . After then , he came out of that well . He was all wet , he had no extra clothes with him to change. So fully wet Danyal rested for sometime beside that well.

Chapter 10 (Yet Another Life)

Chapter 10
THE FOREST EXPERIENCE



Danyal was a very courageous boy , he was now facing the most dreadful horror in reality . As he was moving he could hear all the sounds of insects , owls which was very much frightening to him. He was feeling like he was walking in one of his most terrifying dreams . He had no clue where to go ,what to search . Then he remembered of the small box given by Mr James Andy. The box was a very old brown coloured one. He opened it and found a small paper inside it where it was written "Search for the no colour, under the cover ." It did'nt took time for Danyal to solve this , the only colourless thing he knew was water. He know that now he has to go for a source of water in this forest which only can lead him to his destiny. He opened the box again with a hope that some other clue he could find in it , but the box was empty had nothing except that small chit . Disappointed Danyal moved forward keeping that box in his small bag which he brought with him.


When he was on his way , he heard the sound of a person screaming , he sensed danger. He wanted to run for a moment , but his true heart and humanity pulled him towards that voice which was asking for help. After searching for that person for a long time he found that the voice was coming from inside the well . He moved nearer to the well and looked inside , it was very dark inside , he could not see the person clearly.But then also he saw that person was hanging in a small branch inside the well. He looked here and there for any kind of rope or something and he found one . He found a big rope hanging on a trees branch . It was too high for him to get it , but anyhow he managed after so much struggle. He checked whether the rope was strong enough to bear the weight of any person , after then he gave the other end of the rope to the person inside the well and asked him to grab it and then Danyal started pulling it . Danyal put all his strength to pull him up . After a long struggle he took him out of the well.

The boy who came out from the well looked as of the same age of Danyal . Danyal found that boy very much in terror. He tried to talk to him . He asked him his name , but the boy was in so much fear that he could not even speak and was fainted after a moment. Danyal thought , now he could not move forward , because he could not leave that boy in this condition . So he decided to stay at the same place for sometime . He saw a shed there a small distance . He took that boy to that place. Tired Danyal slept there below that shed .

Chapter 9 (Yet Another Life)

Chapter-9
THE START OF THE MISSION


Danyal was shocked to know all this , he asked "How is it possible Sir? Doctor are working there , they are not able to save her life, how could I ?".
Rob's father said "Danyal as I have told you that your aunt can face death at any moment and she will have to live here forever , which I don't want Danyal , I know one thing that we can stop this happening , just you have to do is to believe me .Danyal it is a belief in this world that the entrance here can be postponed, which is our ultimate desire . I don't know exactly how, but it is possible , but we have to give it a chance which is the only thing we can do . There is a small forest in the border of the village , people say a lot of things about this that there lies something, something that can help us , that can stop the death from happening , which can only be done you and the people who do not belong to this world. We have got a very less time Danyal , you need to be quick. Be careful Danyal , this can be risky , your only power will be your courage , nothing else."

Uncle you said that my desire and determination brought me down here , but Rob would be desiring more to have you than me. So why you didnt call him.
He replied "Danyal though he wants me to be back , though he strongly desires , but he is not determined , he has become weak after my death."
Danyal now started understanding the reality.He asked Rob's father "Had this ever happenend before , that the dead ones call the lived ones ?"
Rob's father told him that "Yes Danyal , it has happened , but many times people have not succeeded in this work .See , you must have listened that there was no chance for any person to live , but he escaped from death , as if God has given him a blessing to live. It is actually the same condition here for which you have been called , we can stop the death , for which the key lies in that forest. To make a person live. But after the person is died you cannot make him alive. What is there inside the forest is unknown , but people believe it."

Danyal was now satisfied knowing all this. Danyal asked Rob's father to lead him to the forest. Rob's father took him , it took them about forty five minutes to reach there . Now the sun was set , and Danyal could see the dark forest just in front of him . He was looking at it with fear , but his determination made his fear away. Rob's father gave him a small box and said to him it will be of great use when you are in the jungle. Danyal thanked him and started journey all alone.

Chapter-8
FACING THE REALITY



Danyal thought only Rob's parents can tell him the truth, so he went again to their house to clear every questions in his mind . He saw very tensed face of Rob's father when he entered the house. He seemed to be really very worried about Rob and Alisha , how would they carry out their future . Who will take care of them?. When he saw Danyal entering he wiped his tears and now was looking at Danyal . Danyal asked to him "Uncle James ,How I came in this world?And where is Mrs Andy , sometime ago she was here" . Mr Andy replied "This question was quite expected from you Danyal , she is not here now " But Danyal had still not got answers of his any question . He was looking at Rob's father with a hope that he will tell him something .

Danyal said "Uncle James , if this is a dead world , the dead ones live here , so if Iam here means that Iam also dead ?
Rob's father said "Yes it is true Danyal , it is the land of dead but it is not true that you are dead you have been called here to do a work Danyal"
Danyal felt somewhat relaxed and said "What work?"
Rob's father replied "I called you Danyal , I need you , you need to do my work."
Danyal with surprise said "Me , uncle why me?"
Rob's father said "I want my children happy Danyal , only you can help me I know that , You are not dead Danyal , your true heart , best example of friendship and dedication to make your friend happy has brought you down here , I think so"
Danyal said "But Uncle , I still didn't get it"
Rob's father said "I too don't know actually how you are here Danyal, when you were near my graveyard i don't know how but suddenly I reached there behind you and I saw you. I know Danyal , when the dead person are able to call you ,to their world it means that something big , something important is going to happen. The work that you are here is , you have to save a life Danyal , the life which only you can save not us ,there is not much time left now."
Danyal asked "Whose life , what are you talking about?"
Rob's father replied "Mrs Andy's life"
"But Uncle she was" after saying this Danyal stopped.
"Dead , yes she was and she was not" Rob's father said.
"What do mean Uncle ?" said Danyal.
Look Danyal , Mrs Andy is not dead still , she is in a terrible risk of life now , she is very serious , she comes here and goes by often , she comes here to give a visit to dead , you have to save her life Danyal , only you can save her , please save her Danyal , my children , O my children.

Chapter 7 ( Yet Another Life )

Chapter -7
KNOWING THE WORLD




The Rob's father entered without saying anything to Danyal . He saw his wife crying and also filled in with tears seeing her. Danyal asked both of them "Excuse me Mr Andy and Mrs Andy , will you please tell me , whats going on here ,where Iam and why both of you are crying , is it a dream because i know you were dead uncle? This all question were moving about in his mind and he wanted desperately answers of his every question . Mr James Andy replied "Easy Danyal , easy , the thing now Iam going to tell you may be unbelievable to you , you might not understand it easily but whatever it is , it is the truth".

Rob's father continued "Danyal you are now in the world of dead , every person you are seeing here , no one is alive of them . Everyone is dead . You know that i fell from the 5th floor at my construction site and i died . You must be wondering why Iam standing infront of you and talking to you , though Iam not alive .The answer is Iam also a part of the dead land. The person who ever dies in the real world becomes a part of this dead world ." He was not able to believe whatever was told to him . So he asked Rob's father why Mrs Andy was here because he knew that she was not dead. Rob's father replied him "Danyal she is dead too". Danyal was shocked to hear this . He looked at Rob's mother . She was still crying . He asked Rob's mother what was the matter. She wiping out her tears replied to him "I faced my death , today morning Danyal , I was very much depressed after my husbands death and this lead me to death. I am really very much tensed about Rob and Alisha they are alone in the house now . Who will take care of them Danyal .

Danyal was also very small to understand all this things . He has seen this kind of things in movies and all. But to face them in reality was very difficult to him. This all information made him really very tensed and made him think that why he was here if it is the land of dead . He ran outside and went to his own house . He actually wanted to confirm about his parents. He knocked the door but no one opened it . He searched his pocket and found a key in it . Then he opened the door searched the whole house here and there but did not find his parents in there which made him very much relaxed . But still he has got doubt in his mind about his presence in this dead world . He has understood now that who ever is dead in the real world , comes and lives here in the dead world which is most likely the same as the real world . He has also now understood that everyone covered with blood out here were not dangerous , but they are the dead ones who faced their death by any accidents or murder or any other reason . He did not find any of the marks or blood in Mrs Andy because she was died because of depression .

Chapter 6 ( Yet Another Life )

Chapter-6
THE SUCCESSFUL SEARCH


Danyal found himself on the bed, he thought that it was again a bad dream and felt relaxed that he was at his house , all the things that he saw were not real . But when he looked around he found , it was not his home . He was somewhere else , after looking here and there and moving around in the room he discovered that he was at the different room . He remembered that he was fainted seeing a group of blood covered faces around him. He looked from the window and found the same people outside. Now everything was just unimaginable to him. First was that he could see the Rob's father even he was dead and moreover now he was in a very much different world and he has no idea how to move out from it. He came out of the room slowly and slowly , still in fears and tears. He was thinking about his mum and dad , that they would be waiting for him in the house and would be very tensed. He wanted to go home now , but was also desperate to know what was going around him.

After coming out of the room, he saw a big fountain around where there was very much brightness and greenery. The whole area around him was full of brightness and freshness. The group of people were sitting near the tree and were watching the beauty of the surroundings. He for a moment thought that he should ask them where he was , but gave up his mind thinking that they would do something harm to him , because they looked very much dangerous. So he quitely moved out of the area . No one noticed him that he was escaping , everyone was exploring the beauty around. He wanted now a white dress, because everyone he
could see had wore the same . He had a feeling that he could not be caught easily if he had a white dress. So he searched every where for it , atlast found one lying on the table. After wearing it he came out of that building and started moving about in the roads.

He saw same kind of people in the roads which he saw earlier before getting fainted , all were covered with blood. He was now searching for that , which brought him down here , which was Rob's father . He looked carefully around , and he found that the world in which he is wandering now has got many similarities as Gasperland in which he lived. The buildings , the gardens , the fountations all were at the same place as he had in his village. The only difference was type of the people living there. Danyal saw a big Banayan tree which he used to see daily , on his way to school . Then he realized that the world around him was very much same as in his village. He thought if everything is same here then , it is possible that Rob 's and his house would be on the same place. So he changed his way and started going to Rob's house in a hope that there he could find Rob's family.

After fifteen minutes he reached there and knocked the door. "Hello , is there anyone inside? " ,Danyal asked. After two minutes someone opened the door and that some one was Rob's mother , Mrs Lily Andy. Rob was pleased to see her there and felt very much relaxed . Atleast now he has got someone who he knows here. Rob's mother without speaking to him , with her gestures asked him to come inside. Danyal could see tears in her eyes. Danyal after coming inside asked "Aunt Lily , where is Rob?". Aunt lily was unable to speak , she was full of tears. Danyal asked her again "Aunt Lily , where is Rob?, Please tell me , and dont cry whats the matter. Aunt Lily was about to say something , but before she could do so, door knocked again . Danyal said , "Aunt , I will open it , you remain seated". Danyal opened the door and the person he saw after opening was Rob's father . Atlast he found the person who brought him down here.
