Episode 18

(Recap)

The tamed creature took Aisha in his fleshy hands and make her sit on his back, and he started running to a direction, he was trying to keep her safe from that creatures, He was trying to defend her, but Aisha has clasped herself in her sad memories, just her body feeling the ups and down jumps made by the creature.

***

Sage observed it, again as the motion of Aisha, Sage was dragged up behind her, that creature took a way.

It was moving from another chamber, Dark chamber, everything was strange and unknown, Sage just wanted to know where the creature had kept Aisha and was she safe there, And seems like the answers were on its way now...

Sage was going along with the moving world, he observed Aisha unconscious, and suddenly she fell from the creature back and her body touched the ground. The creature realized that and he looked behind, Aisha was lying down, and the crowd of more creatures, running towards them.

That Creature made a swift move, just like a superhero in films protecting their heroin’s, this creature ran toward her, took Aisha on his back, this time tightly holding her with one hand on the back, he ran again to a point, It was a different way, it was into the cell.

The creature ran and went inside a cell, There were 12 cubic cells, in 2 rows, divided into 6x6 cells per row. That creature managed to escape from that crowd and now he settled down silently in the cell.

Cell no. 8

He slowly kept Aisha away. She was still unconscious, lost in her own ‘Sad’ world.

The room was toxic with a stringent smell. It seemed to be that creature’s home, Like the creature have been there locked for years, his sweat, his dung, everything collected at a corner.

Sage glanced around, it was more likely to be Jail of creatures, This was unlike the beings' ones, we generally use large rods at the front, but here it was like a cubic metallic box locked from every side and opened in a corner door.

A perfect creature sized door. The steel walls inside were not painted but sure reddened with blood. At the most bottom of the wall was dark blackish blood part, slowly above the level of blood strips fades.

There was a steel bed, where Aisha was lying now. 

But why? Why the creature was so easy with Aisha? What magic she had, made the creature go so calm and friendly?

(12 AM)

The night when Naina proposed Vikrant, Here Aisha was lying unconsciously in the cell, with the creature, it was impossible for a normal person to spend a whole night with a beast and a whole stinky smell, but Aisha had lost her senses, she was alive, not as a person, but living a thought, living a memory.

The creature too relaxed there in the cell sitting beside Aisha and spending his night.

Sage understood that they are still in the cell, and it’s time to go and take Aisha out.

Sage again used his brainpower and moved the time wheel anti-clockwise and transmitted from the past time to the present.

And slowly removed the handkerchief from his eyes and looked around, Sage observed Vikrant, Gautam, Vrushika looking at him with extreme eagerness to know where is Aisha, and So the Sage uttered, “She is fine”

“Hushh..” Vrushika exhaled with relief.

“Thank god” Vikrant.

Everyone seemed fine and eager to where know she is now, as they were in need to get out of the Haveli.

“Not sure” Sage again said.

“What do you mean?” Vrushika asked with a doubtful look.

“I am not sure if she is safe, but one thing is for sure; she is alive and she is with a creature!”

“What, with a creature?” Vikrant shockingly.

“Isn’t it harming her?” Gautam.

“Where she is now?” Vrushika, directly aksed the main point.

“Just straight going through the chamber will lead a way to her, into the cell” Sage replied by whatever he saw.

“In a cell, with a creature?” Vikrant got a little scared.

“Is she been arrested for something?” Gautam.

“Who might arrest her here now?” Vrushika.

“ We should be quick, as we don’t know whether her life is safe or not.!!” Vikrant said.

“Let's go” Gautam.

Everyone started towards the other chamber. It was dark and hollow.

“Where are you going, guys!!”

A soft but frighten voice from there back, they heard.

Everyone looked behind, it was Naina, she came inside the haveli as she was waiting outside for long.

“What, where are you all going? Where is Aisha?” Naina asked.

“You shouldn’t be here, but now as you had come downstairs then come with us!” Vikrant.

“I was waiting for you all outside, but you were taking so long that made me come inside to look what’s happening here,” Naina said.

“ We are on the way to search Aisha, come with us!”

“Okay” She followed them...

They quickly started to move towards the directed place. They were getting closer now, but still, for assurance, Vrushika asked.

“Sage, till how long?”

“It should be here” Sage replied.

“Where?” Vrushika.

“Just follow” Sage.

Sooner they reached a place which Sage had saw in his inception.

“The 8th cell” Sage added a little more detail.

Everyone looked around and started looking for the 8th cell, and they found it quickly, a metal cube between the other 11 cubes, inside the chamber. It was having a steel metallic door.

It wasn’t locked, Vikrant moved forward, he was tensed, he opened the door and surprised, the huge thing in front of him sleeping, The slow movements on the creature's chest while he was breathing making his chest bubble out as a frog does. The creature was red, darken, surrounded with flies, his ears like a goblet, his stomach lean, his face, giving the real horror, his sharp teeth, 2 out and rest hiding inside, and his hands with maximum 3 fingers, and so as his feet, it was like fried beef, but with whole-body wet with red sauce.

It was death for sure if he mistakenly got awake. Vikrant moved his eyes, and he saw Aisha was also lying.

“Is she inside” A low whisper from behind, heard by Vikrant.

“shhh...Don't make any sound, she is inside, and that thing is also there, she is fine, seems unconscious, does someone have a water bottle?” Vikrant spoke up quickly in the least possible tone of voice.

And so at his statement, Naina took out a bottle from her bag having less water And handled it to Vikrant.

Vikrant slowly took some water in his hand and splattered it on Aisha’s face, and Aisha woke up and her lying position changed into a sitting position and she made an outcry,

“Noooo”

This loud sound heard by the creature made him open his eyes and when he did, he was surprised to see a list of people on the door.

Vikrant was frightened by the thought of this moment, and now it happened, the creature got woke up and Vikrant felt that it will eat them all, and so Vikrant uttered lastly.

“Death, I came to kiss you”
