Ch-1 The Starting

I was in a dark place, left hand couldn't see the right one, that much dark. It seemed as if I was space walking. Darkness was everywhere. I was confused as I seem to be flying in this endless void. I looked for any light source I could find anywhere but it just went in vain. Anxiety and fear started to grab my mind and one question was screaming real hard inside my head --

Where the hell am I?!

"Hey chipmunk, hey are you listening?"

I heard a girl's voice. It was a bit rude but sweet.

"Hey mate, answer me. I know you are conscious right now and very much confused about the current situation but this is the only way I could talk to you."

I was just getting more anxious and confused about what is happening. I tried to comfort myself, remembering about all the animes I have watched all the books I have read..

Then I said, "I am not a chipmunk, you rude squirrel."

This is what happens when you live in a imaginary life more than the real one.

"Don't you think you should ask where you are and who I am instead of calling me a squirrel, you dumb?"

She was right, but I was so much filled with foolish thoughts about bravery and all, that I barely had control of my sanity at that time.

"No, not at all. You are just another dream of mine, nothing special or if you are something, show yourself, then we will be even."

Then, a annoying silence filled the darkness. After some seconds, what I most feared of happening started to happen.... She started to laugh. She had the sweetest laugh I have ever listened to.

"Oh these humans, so much foolish but at the same time, brave enough to face anything. Arjuna, I am not your imagination; I am here to warn you about your future. Something very soon is going to happen which will change not only yours but of the whole world lives."

I was perplexed about what should I say now. I changed my gear from 5th to 2nd and asked her, "Who are you and where am I and what is going on and what is going to happen with me??"

"Oh my my, ask slowly. First of all, I am Asma. I won't answer the rest of the questions right now as you will eventually find out everything. Arjuna, humanity is going to be reconstructed by some people who will call themselves whatever they want. You will find out soon enough."

I was feeling relaxed as I listened more of her sweet voice.

"Asma, I am still confused why are you here, why did you bring me here?"

"Because you are special. This is the only reason I can tell you right now."

"I -- I am just getting more confused. How special..?"

"Have you ever felt you are different, not like the people you live with?"

"Yup, but it's just normal daydreaming. Every damn teenager daydreams about being special!!"

"But what if I say that your daydream was not your imagination, but your reality..?"

"Wha - Could you please just explain what the heck is going on? Yup, your voice is cute and - I am trying to understand you; but just tell me Asma, how do you know that I am special, if I really am, obviously..?"

"Oh dear. How much of a trickster have you become?! Thanks for your compliment but I can't tell you more. Just a thing that I am someone who knows you since you are born."

"Really!! That means, you are very much older than me. God, I was thinking about asking you -- for something..."

She snickered.

"Oh, you flirty fox. Sorry but my time is over now. I have to go. Just few more words to you, a journey is waiting for you. You have to stay strong and calm. I will always be their when you will try to find me but at the same time, it is your journey.

To be.... The One"

"What!!.. What is 'The One'.. Can u just explain me something what is going on.. Hey Asma, what is happening?

Hey Asma..Asma

Asma......."

****

"Get up boys and girls. Get up fom your sleep. Your future is waiting for you. Get up"

A husky but graceful voice rummaged in my ears. I woke up from that darkest and sweetest dream I have ever seen. Now as I can finally see around myself, I saw a holographic screen above my head. There was an old man cleaning his glasses.

His glasses were surprisingly simillar to my specs.

Surprised

Excited

Startled

Wondered

I felt every emotion as I saw that screen floating. There wasn't any source for the holograph. I got up from my bed to see that screen was following the direction of my face. I remained silent.

"So, it looks like most of the boys and girls from the 16-20 age group has opened their eyes and now are very surprised to see a old man above or in front of their face."

"So basically there is no need to worry. We are neither aliens nor outwardly creatures, we are humans just like you. We are your ancestors, the oldest of all."

Oh I can tell it just by looking at your white hair and pale face old man.

"We are the figures of your past who are now interfering in your present for the betterment of your future.

This is The Starting of the reconstruction of your future. You all are welcome to your future."

So this is the starting she was talking about. It is going to be crazy and I know it well.

Get ready Arjun. Long way to go boy.
