Caucus and his journey

Inside quanta world

After 5 hours of walk. Exhausted George asked uncle if they could fly in a dragon, unicorn, magic cloak, and many other magical things that were available there. ‘ I already said you, if you try to go in there using any magic available, you will be thrown out of the palace’, said uncle irritated from George’s grumbling.

‘But we can go near the palace in it right, we don’t have to walk.’

‘Still, what is the problem in walking, it makes you strong.’

‘We have been walking for 5 hours and not a single drop of water has reached down my throat since then, I am hungry, can’t you see it.’

‘You were the one who insisted on coming, so stop complaining’, said uncle Jha.

After 2 more hours of walk. They finally reached the palace. They entered inside the gate but there were soldiers all around.

‘I know the other way, where there is less security.

There was a hidden path whose opening was under the statue of a dragon situated on the gate. Go and look for the soldiers, I will find a way to move that statue’, uncle said.

George hide behind one of the trees there and looked at the soldiers.

Uncle Jha couldn’t use magic there. So he tried to move it but it was way too heavier. After trying several times he gave up and called George.

George also tried moving it but it wasn’t moving. ‘It’s impossible to move it’, said George.

‘We have to go from another way’, Said uncle.

‘But it’s too dangerous that way, there are hundreds of soldiers there and we cannot do magic either. It will be like jumping into the fire’, said George.

‘But we cannot give up.’

The dragon mouth in the statue was wide open.

‘Do you think the statue is hollow inside’, said George.

‘I don’t know, why?’, uncle asked.

‘I can go into the hole from that mouth if it’s hollow.’

‘Can, you fit in there?’

‘I used to squeeze myself into a cupboard drawer when I was at earth. This mouth is still bigger’ said George, ‘just tell me where to go and what to do’.

Uncle Jha took a letter from inside his pocket, he handover the letter to George and said, ‘you will see three buildings there when you get out from another opening. Middle one is palace and right to the palace there is a building where soldiers live and at the left of the palace, you will see another building which is also known as the quanta world. It may seem small from the outside but inside there is another world. Everything is magical there, only magicians are allowed there. You have to be aware of royal guards, you have to escape from their eyes and get inside. The first thing you do inside the quanta world is to find Avorians. Handover the letter I gave you to them. If they want to help us they will get you out here.’

‘And what if they don’t like our plan?’

‘I would say good luck for that one.’

‘Anyway I have to go there’, smiled George trying to climb the statue.

‘I will be waiting right here for you, take care’, said uncle Jha holding his hands, he hugged George and helped him climb the statue.

The statue was really hollow from inside. He managed to pass through the mouth and he fell into the hole right away. The hole was so narrow that he had to crawl the whole way. When the soldiers used to walk on the ground the hole used to vibrate. Somehow George managed to reach another opening.

It wasn’t an easy task to reach Quanta world from there. From the hole he could see a number of soldiers there. He waited patiently until the soldiers on the way were gone. He silently came out from the hole and hid behind bushes of roses. He picked some and filled his hands. He studied the movement of soldiers and used to walk whenever he gets the chance hiding his face with the leaves he plucked. There were 10 royal guards guarding the way to the quanta world. And all of them were looking at different directions. It was impossible to go inside it from the front gate so he went for back, hiding behind the bushes. There were three guards at the back. And there was no door to get inside. There was just a small window on every floor.

George waited for the right situation to come. The royal guards didn’t leave until the man who came that day at the portal took them with him. George went for the window slowly. He climbed and finally jumped inside. It was just a washroom. The washroom with a wall on it’s all four sides with no door. There was only one way, that was outside that building.

‘After all those hard work this is what I get’, shouted George slamming the wall. But his hand got through the wall. Then he pushed his head through it. The scene he saw out there was hard for him to believe. The hall was infinitely huge, bigger than a city. Magicians out there were able to walk past each other and walk past anything that came on the way. One man was splitting into tens of him, which were just alike. They were jumping in one corner and were appearing into another. There were no stairs for them to go into the next floor, they were simply jumping and next second they were on another floor. At one of the corners there was a huge stall of food and drinks. There was a variety of food and the main part of it was anyone could go there and eat it without paying. 

‘Have I reached heaven already’, exclaimed George to himself. He pulled his body past the wall. He was in the hall.

‘If I can walk past this wall, then I should be able to do everything they are doing’ he murmured to himself. But he didn’t know how that worked. He forgot his purpose for going there. He was taking full advantage of being there. His stomach was roaring due to hunger, he went to the stall and ate his full. That was the most delicious food he ever had in his life. ‘If walking seven hours and escaping from the eyes of soldiers takes to have this heavenly food then I am ready to do it every day’, said he to himself.

After roaming around the first floor he was curious about all the five floors up there. He jumped from the floor but he ended up falling there. He asked a wizard, ‘excuse me, I am kind of new here, can you teach me to jump into other floors?’

‘of course’ the wizard said, ‘ you just have to focus on the floor you want to get and jump’.

‘Could you do it with me?’ asked Caucus.

‘Okay let’s do it, first tell me which floor you exactly want to go.’

‘First floor.’

‘Okay, think about the first floor in your mind, did you?’

‘Yes.’

‘Now jump.’

When George opened his eyes he was on the first floor. There were all types of game there. From arrow to flying carpet, from unicorn ride to dragon ride everything was available there.

‘Thank you for your help’, said George to the wizard and continued to roam there. He went for a unicorn ride but he fell from it soon after getting on it.

He did the same to jump on each floor. The second floor was for meditation and the third was for picnics and hikes. There were hills full of trees and rivers in there. Witch and wizards were lying there listening to birds that were singing on the branch of the tree. ‘Why are you wearing that shitty cloth’, said one of the wizards lying there, ‘go to the fourth floor they have new collection there today’, said he.

George jumped for the fourth floor there really were every accessories one needed. There were clothes, bags, shoes, sports items, and makeup for ladies. George went through the cloth collection he picked up a coat set for him. He changed them in one of the changing rooms. He also changed his shoes and picked a fine hat for him there. He was now looking like one of the magicians there.

A very beautiful witch came toward him, ‘you must be new here handsome’, said she putting her hands in his shoulder. George was almost taken by the girl’s beauty when he heard her saying. ‘I so want to bite that lips of yours, until you bleed.’

‘What did you say’, exclaimed George pulling himself out from her hand.

‘I said you must be new here handsome.’

‘No after that.’

‘Nothing’

‘Shy guys are the best’, George again heard her saying but this time her mouth really wasn’t moving.

‘Did you just said shy guys are the best.’

‘Oh my god!, are you a psychic’, girl shouted at him and moved away, ‘if only he wasn’t a psychic.’

‘I can still hear you’, said George.

‘Just stop reading my thoughts’, said the girl and jumped out of there.

George was astonished, he tried to focus on other magicians around and he was reading thoughts of them, he went into the changing room again and looked for the magic mark all over his body but it was nowhere to be seen.

‘It must be magic of quanta world’, thought he little disappointed.

‘These bunch of Avorians are taking the whole space up there, I hate them. How can his majesty forgive them when they denied to serve him and ran away’, George heard, He was reading an old wizard thoughts who was walking with his accompanies.
