Chapter 8:
The time when Isakai comes to your world.
Pooki left for the dagger, in the main hall. Vibhi moved towards the basement and Sastri looked for a very confidential place. When Pooki reached the temple yard she witnessed, A huge, supermassive crowd waiting for their turn to witness the idol and worship her. Pooki said, "Well it is a very massive crowd, hence I won't be able to reach. It would be better to go back." She turned back to leave, A tsunami of people rushed in and took her with them toward the hall.
Here Vibhi a facing a different problem she has to enter the basement but only a few confidential people and the priests, are allowed to enter. For the rest, it is a forbidden place. That means Vibhi can't go to the basement in an easy way. So, she has to come out with a creative way. But she was not able to figure out how. She heard two priests, chatting with each other, she got near them and hid herself somewhere there to hear them without any problem.
Meanwhile, Sastri was walking very comfortably, enjoying the moment, waving his hand, greeting others in the temple. And secretly he was scanning the area as he was looking for something. Then he saw something and started smiling. As if he got something very fascinating. He knows, what to do, he takes a position and begins his action. Battling with the guardian protecting the secret. I wish, that this could have happened, but he found a nice shade in the tree. He lay down stretched his body and took a nice asleep.
Let us come back to Pooki, as we know she was flooded in the human tsunami. She was unwilling to enter the hall, after struggling for half an hour. Those thirty minutes were a nightmare for her, she wants to forget about it, but could never be able to forget that. Every aunt in the tsunami grabbed her head to move faster to worship the idol, to fulfil their wish. She even git hit several times by their belonging. Some people were crawling over other people to reach faster, Pooki saw them and shouted," Spider monsters!". She even got squashed at some point, the smell of sweetness from another's body. And it is the time of summer. One small fan on the ceiling was not even enough to cool dame single person, it was there to cool the human tsunami. This all took Pooki's mind, making her lose control and almost get unconscious. The smell of sweat was making Pooki vomit but she somehow took care of it.
Pooki is a small thirteen-year-old girl, four feet right inches. Has to crawl between the legs of people to save her life from this deadly condition. But many women wore a saree. So she was not able to pass through their legs, and she even got hit by the crowd. She somehow managed to come out of her life trial.
There in the hall to visit the Devi, people have to form a queue. As Pooki's objective to came, is to find the window in the hall. She found herself Blessed, she thought Devi had protected her for being in that toucher. She started to recall the information about Sastri. She searched for the window on the right side of the entrance, but there was a catch. Pooki was on the left side of the entrance. Now she has to go to the queue to reach the right side. Plus the exit is also on the right side. She can't even quit. Now she yelled," Curse you! Broken antique. How could he send me to this hell? He would pay for this."
And what is this broken antique doing? He is taking a nap. All in peace, enjoying the summer, the warmth of the sun, winds freshness, and shades cooling shade. All different from Pooki's misery.
Here Vibhi somehow disguised herself as a bunch of students. As she was trying to hear the conversation between those two priests. The older priest said to the younger priest," Today, a student of the Patna archaeology department will be visiting our temple. So you will take care of them, They have come to study the ancient sculpture, monuments gold design etc. Take them to the basement and, be with them all the time."She was also a student of Patna University in the department of agriculture.
She thought of a great idea," It is such a great time, in the rush of coming here I forgot to take off my ID card. Oh.! Devi is helping me at this time. Thank you, Devi! Thank you very much."
Presently Vibhi had somehow managed to get with the archaeology student. Now, she and the students were welcomed by the young priest as it was planned. The young priest was taking them to the basement by exploring the temple.
