Day-5
Caucus was holding Ross’s hand and they were sleeping at a couch looking at the night sky full of stars. ‘This is a time for you to make a wish’ said Caucus pointing at a falling star. They both murmur their wish. ‘What did you wish for?’ asked Ross. ‘I didn’t ask any, I just thanked God for this moment which was my wish for a long time. Tell me what did you wish for?’ Asked Caucus looking at Ross.
Ross opened her mouth, ‘it’s time for a potion, wake up Caucus. If you get caught sleeping till this time you are going to get a good scolding from uncle, wake up’, Ross shouted at Caucus shaking him up until he wakes up from his dream.
‘How can you do that to me, I was having such a nice time in my dream’, said Caucus wearily
‘Who did you dreamed off so late in the morning’, asked Ross.
‘You’, said Caucus without thinking, ‘you were serving us delicious feast, I was just about to eat it when you woke me up’, said Caucus correcting.
‘Thank-god you didn’t dream of going to toilet otherwise you would have peed’, said Ross
‘I don’t pee in bed’, shouted Caucus as she went to the kitchen.
When Caucus went to the kitchen, everyone except uncle Jha were there having their share of potion. Taking his share of potion Caucus asked Ross, ‘where is uncle Jha, I thought we will be on training early in the morning.’
‘He has gone to fetch holy water from a nearby temple, you will be learning concentration today’ said Ross.
After having potion everyone went outside and begun practicing aura with time on their own. When uncle Jha came from the temple, all of them were already outside of their meditation. Giving each of them one spoon of the holy water on their hand he said, ‘ this water will clean your spirit and help you concentrate’, uncle Jha begun to speak
‘to expose your magic, here is another thing important than hard work and best training it is your belief system. The confidence that you can do it, no matter what you have to do. There should be at least one reason for you to have magic which will force your magic into the physical world. Now as usual go and sit on your respective stick’, ordered he.
Everyone went to their stick obeying him.
‘Now everyone close your eyes and think of the reason behind to get your magic’, he continues
Everyone closed their eyes and silence ruled over the environment.
‘I want my magic to be alive and to adapt in this world’ , said Voilet still his eyes closed.
‘I want my magic to be able to return home for my family’, said George.
Then Anna continues, ‘I want my magic to help my friends in need.’
‘What about you Caucus’, asked uncle Jha.
‘I want my magic to fight against king and free all the living from his trap. I want to make this world happy again’, said Caucus.
‘Now everyone concentrate on your reason, imagine you got what you wanted, feel the satisfaction on your heart after that and use the satisfaction as your weapon to force magic out.’
Aura began to form around each one of them, more brighter than before. It contained satisfaction this time.
When Caucus opened his eyes, he couldn’t believe his sight after seeing Migma in front of him, he jumped out of the stick and grabbed Migma shedding tears from his eyes. Migma also began to shed tears. The moment brought tears of happiness in Anna’s, Voilet’s, George’s, Ross’s, and uncle Jha’s eyes. Who were around them by the time.
‘I missed you so much, I can’t believe you are awake’ said Caucus in tears.
Migma nodded his head and hugged him even tighter.
‘You have a lot to catch up Migma, I will give you a discount today, but from tomorrow you will have to work hard’, said uncle giving him the holy water from the bowl.
Migma nodded his head saying yes.
They all went inside for their lunch.
That day they everyone told about fair, temple, forest, and moments Migma losed while he was in his long sleep.
Next moning as always,
uncle Jha took all of them including Migma to the temple and they did the same concentration training on the thinner stick. Despite being unable to attend previous trainings Migma was doing great. His aura was red. Which symbolized rage and fire.

All went by, they were becoming better each day. In those days they learned to meditate in the air without the support of a stick, they learned to confine their aura to fix radii, they learned to control time inside their spiritual world but still there was no sign of magic.
Day-11
After regular training in the morning. They all were sleeping in a bed talking about their new life, when a flying unicorn was seen outside. They all went there to see it. He was Alex, Caucus’s father.
Caucus ran toward him to hug him. ‘I was waiting for you to come’ said Caucus. ‘Sorry, for being late child’, Alex said. Everyone except Ross came there to hug him.
‘I can never pay your debt for letting my children in your shadow’ said Alex holding uncle Jha’s hand.
‘Don’t be selfish enough to refer them as your children, they are our children now’, said uncle Jha patting Alex.
‘You seem worried, is there something wrong out there’ said Caucus looking at Alex.
‘After the little act we did to save Migma that day, His majesty pushed all of his soldiers in charge of energy chamber inside it. After that he has doubled the security of the chamber and multiplied his search for witch and wizard of Avory.
If they find out they weren’t in the area at that time, he will kill all of us and if he didn’t find out, we will be putting those witch and wizard in trouble’, said Alex in agony.
‘Well, that is a real problem’, said uncle Jha.
‘These days I cannot even face his majesty, he looks right through my mind and it is becoming harder to hide my subconscious mind’, said Alex.
‘We have to warn Avorian about the king’, said uncle.
‘But they never live in a same place, they are always moving’, said Alex.
‘Either way, we have to meet them before king does, you should win the trust of the soldiers, get the information about Avorian from them before it reaches the king and warn them about king’s arrival. There is no other choice left. Pass the information to me as well, I will do whatever it takes to help you’, said uncle.
‘During this time, me coming here leaving palace is dangerous for me as well as for you. So I have to return. I am sorry I have to go, and thank-you for supporting me uncle Jha. You are the only person I can think about when a crisis occurs’, said Alex hugging him and his children.
He jumped above the unicorn and flew higher in the sky.
‘How cool’, Voilet said in amazement.
When everyone was watching Alex go, Ross went inside. Soon Caucus followed her.
‘That most feel special to have father, someone who pass their DNA to you’, said Ross avoiding eye contact with Caucus.
‘It feels special but not because we share the same DNA but because we are attached emotionally.
Like you and uncle Jha’, said Caucus
‘you know what, I have never seen that respect, love and care you and uncle Jha share with each other in anyone out there, I am kind of jealous of that myself’, said Caucus keeping his hands in her shoulder.
‘Well, we have been together for 50 years now’, said Ross without thinking.
‘50+15, oh my god! You are 65 years old’, exclaimed Caucus.
‘No-no, I said 15, not 50’ stammered Ross.
‘No, you are 65. your age is more than my grandmother’s, I am going to tell everyone’, Caucus tried to run outside when Ross grabbed him and hold him in her arms. Their eyes met and soon they were staring at each other.
‘uhum uhum’, sound came from the door, it was George.
‘If you two really want to romance, there is a lot of places out there but clearly not this’, said George
trying to look in the opposite direction.
Ross loosed her hand and Caucus went a little far from her. Ross went outside the room. ‘Nothing was happening, it was nothing like it seemed’, said Caucus on his defense.
‘I can see the love for each other in your eyes, you have to share each other feelings. It’s not like you have ages to be here, we have to get out of here in less than 20 days. If you don’t tell each other now, you will regret it whole life’, said George. ‘It’s great now, and I don’t even know how that works, this feeling and love all are new to me. I don’t even know what it means’, said Caucus going out of the room.
Migma was still practicing control outside. He used to practice the whole time, the only time he would stop practicing was during meal, lunch, and dinner. Everyone was happy for his determination but Caucus was worried about him as he used to sleep less and work hard. Despite being unconscious for five days, he mastered every training before others. His aura was becoming brighter and stronger each day.
Day-12
When everyone was in the training early in the morning floating in the air. The air in front of them burned, the fire in the air sketched words saying, ‘ soldiers have already found the address of Avorian, they are now in an enchanted forest of Alaharmbra. I am with the king on our way to them. I somehow escaped the eye of the king to write you this letter. If we don’t do something now, innocent will die because of me.’ After reading the letter uncle Jha kept on saying, ‘ we have to reach forest of Alaharmbra.’ He was scared and confused. Caucus in his meditation heard uncle Jha saying ‘we have to reach the forest of Alaharmbra’, Caucus in his meditation begun to whisper ‘we have to reach forest of Alaharmbra’, he goes on saying it again and again. His whisper begun to turn into something loud. Anna, Voilet, George and Migma coming back from their meditation begun to look at Caucus , even Ross came out of the kitchen hearing him shout. Uncle Jha and Ross tried to get near him but his aura threw them outward. Soon his aura created a cyclotron of dust around him and when it was over Caucus was gone.
