Chapter 1 - Chapter 1 - The burrying ritual

A little charcater intro :- grandpa , me , uncle and aunt , mother and father , sis , bad girl ( uses corpses for prayer) , good aunt ( a psychic and devotee of goddes durga)

~ I am just too lazy to name them , you can name them yourselves however you like , you can even drag your own family in this imagination : )

It starts with me strolling sneakingly to avoid my relatives for some reason . I reach my uncle and aunt's home where i saw my grandpa , he was talking about how he will perform lepana ( a procedure in ayurveda ) .

As i am also studying ayurveda i wanted to take close look at it before my second year starts . I was just excited to get a little edge over my dumb batchmates.

Then enters a woman who is a devotee of goddess durga ( a hindu goddess) she is a psychic too. I touched her feet , as it is a common way to greet elders in India . She looked at me and just knew i had a spiritual role to play .

After she heard that i am a scholar of ayurveda ( ancient Indian medical system derived from scriptures )

She entrusted me with a task and revealed a secret that no one knew . There is a identical secret room in our house where a stone tablet is kept and that psychic aunt wants me to burry that tablet . That identical room was a secret prayer room .

I asked her what is that about , she told me that there was a child practioneer before her , it was his remains . In my mind i was excited because i could gain some powers from that prayer room and doing the task that aunt told me . But i didnt show my excitement to her obviously so that she doesnt think i am greedy or something (actually i am🙃) .

After this conversation the scene cuts to a an empty ground behind our homes , it was a creepy looking ground because some of its boundary wall were broken , although the gound itself was normal and clean , but outside those walls were very creepy looking ruins and broken fences , ditches and some crops beyond all that . It looked like a completely different world like some apocalpytic world .

We were strolling there with my sisters and one of her friend , caring about nothing but gossiping . But as we approached that broken wall i instinctively became alert , because there were incidents of animals charging in the ground , and ofcourse i care about my sisters . They were still gossiping with no care about the world . Unknowingly we went beyond the walls , strolling between those wheat crops . I was extra worried and alert and suddenly my psychic aunt appeared and joined us . I forgot all my worry and started my part of gossips too .

I told there was lake nearby , where i encountered some evil entity , it started when some evil guy burried a baby to summon Jinn ( an evil entity according to muslims ) , so told her about my blurry memory , i only remembered after that guy performed that ritual that jinn tried to pull me into the lake . I only remembered this thing because it happened much earlier when i was just a child .

At that point , it strucked in our minds that the stone tablet kept in the secret room can also be an object where a jinn is trapped . We realized it at the same time i could tell that by seeing her expression . Right after that the one girl who was friend of my sisters started acting suspiciously and went further away in those fields my aunt started following her .

I knew something was wrong with her because she was going towards that site where this incident happend to me.

Now the scene cuts and i am in the secret room , it looks just like our room and also has a door , i can see the outside from the door like it is just a normal house but from the outside we never saw any door like that . I could also see my parents preparing something delicous made of potato and my father distributing it to the neighbours .

The problem is that suspicious girl is sitting right in front of the exit and if i exit the secret room right in front of her , the contents of the secret room will be exposed to her , and who knows for sure that she isn't a evil practitioner.

( Btw the content of rooms were - the tablet that sealed that evil entity called jinn , some photos of durga the hindu goddess , and some items for prayers )

So now my main objective is to get out of that secret room without that little devil noticing me and tell my aunt about the possibility of the Jinn sealed inside that tablet and then we two will have to deal with that evil entity .

Author ~ so here ends the first fragment of my dream , first of all i am trapped and in a dilemma . How should i get out of that room?

Should i open that mysterious door? Or just wait till she leaves? But my parents will be worried and start searching for me that might make her suspicous of me . Well you can complete the rest of the story yourself cause i woke up after that , you can share your imagination in the comments .
