Black Hole Explorer (Part - II)

CONTINUATION FROM PART I ……… Reo found a crystal with different nature in a dark pit and then he received his father’s greatest invention from his grandfather, he came to know what is inside and opening it became a challenge for him. He took it to his room and looked for an opening. The box is totally sealed on all sides, it was like a wood which is used to make furniture (without any opening freshly cutted from tree) but on one side of the box there was a small thunder logo design which is sculptured on the wood other than that all he see was just the wood, Reo thought many ways but nothing helped him to open it, he didn’t eat his dinner because of this box all he do was thinking no sleep or eat….no nothing. Though he couldn’t find anything that’s when he remembered about the crystal, at once he kept the box away and turned his attention towards the crystal, Reo became crazy about the crystal he even named the crystal as GLITTER.

             He continued his research on the crystal he tried to find its nature of color and its function of changing. He tried to find about it day and night, he feels something missing but couldn’t tell what it was, so he decided to go back to the black pit again but before that he haven’t slept for past 2 days so he took some rest.

          Next morning he took all his equipment along with the container where he used to keep his crystal and entered into the forest, he was shocked to see the path was covered with roots of the tree. ‘Where did those roots come from?’ Reo asked himself ‘whatever lets go’ he replied to himself and moved into the pit and went deep inside slowly, he got shocked again when he entered into the cave everything around him seemed different from last time he visited and all those happened just within a week ‘WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? Where are the roots that covered the crystal?’ He got confused more and sat at a stone taking a deep breath and thinking about it slowly while eating the sandwitch that he bring along with him and a flask full of tea. While eating he noticed whenever he take a bite the vegetables between the bread starts filling the unfilled placed, even it’s a common thing that everyone know but for him it gave a big surprise at that time. He went back to home while entering he was glad to see his grandfather’s friend there then they chatted for a long but he never talked anything about the crystal his grandfather also forgot about the crystal after a couple of time he went back to his room and took a nap.

          On evening his grandpa came to his room and asked him to come along with him. Reo went with his grandpa to the river which is located near the forest. ‘Why are we here gramps?’ asked Reo. ‘This is the place where your father comes often when he was confused or sad, you looked confused so I thought bringing you here can help you’ replied his grandpa with a smile. Reo loved that place very much they sat at the river bank and had a funny chit chat about Reo’s dad while talking Reo’s grandpa asked Reo about the box and he was like ‘Not that box again!! I wonder Dad had big brain than others, I couldn’t figure anything about the box!’ His grandfather laughed hardly, most of the scientist whoever tried to open box told this statement and you know what the box has a unique speciality that it cannot be burned or cutted, WHAAT!!! Is that really wood? Asked Reo, ‘Well I wonder what it was made up of’ replied his grandpa with confusion. ‘Take your time Reo and come back soon okay’ said his grandpa and went back to home.

          Reo sat there watching the river, he was totally relaxed now, and he went back to home after watching the sunset too. At home he helped his father to fix the water tank and broken pipes, after that they had a great dinner and slept. Next morning when he woke up he remembered that his holidays where going to end (only six days more) Reo was excited other than getting worried. He always wanted to study at the TYPHOON ACADEMY which is the biggest university where most of the students became scientists, even Reo’s dad studied there too, he paused his research for a day and helped his grandfather in their farm by planting seeds and watering the tree, while watering Reo asked his grandfather ‘Gramps we usually water only once in a week but how did these trees grown up so soon?’ His grandpa replied with a smile ‘Oh Felix, The roots of the trees are made to gather water for them, even if we don’t water the trees it normally takes water from the river. ‘WHAT? FROM RIVER? Don’t joke around grandpa, how can a tree from here can gather water from the river which is 500 meter away from the tree? Asked Reo, ‘My boy! The roots can track water throughout the soil even if the path is closed with any obstacle such as rocks etc… they find some other path to take water that’s why roots are strong and long … while hearing about the root Reo remembered the root transformation inside the forest and the dark pit, the next day he went to the dark pit with all his equipment along with glitter inside a container, there Reo took notes on the direction of the roots and their changes and growth for three days but he still can’t find the specific reason for why and how the roots changed path in a week, days passed by Reo’s holidays completed.

          First day in college was very happy for him he started to learn many new things there and got many friends, he was not weak as he was used to be in high school he completed taekwondo and finished learning three musical instruments (Drums, Piano, and Guitar) during his school days. In his college he was called as multitalented genius. But he doesn’t concern about it, daily after school he used to research about the roots in the forest and also studies about the crystal too, he almost forgot the box that his dad invented. The college days went with excitement and happiness which made him to forget the box that his dad invented, then on a fine day his professor teaches the students about minerals and their natures like they are heat resistant and they can conduct electricity etc… this strikes Reo’s brain hardly, after college he came home and took glitter and started to make a stand that can hold the glitter so that he can pass every kind of light rays in it.

          On the weekend Reo began his experiments with different rays by passing them on the crystal one by one respectively so that he can study about the colour changes that takes place inside the crystal during the experiment each ray changes gives a different colour to crystal, only sunlight makes it change into many different colour at once , Reo was still surprised, He wants to know more about the crystal that’s when Reo’s eyes looked at the lamp his mind asked ‘Why don’t I try electric current on the crystal?’. Weekends ended.

 Next day after college at evening Reo started to design a HIGH VOLTAGE SHOOTING EMULATOR and invented it in a week on the next weekend, Reo made the crystal to get hit by high voltage current he was shocked while seeing it, The current directly passed through the crystal and hits the thunder logo design on the box that his dad invented which is placed under the bed, he can’t believe anything that the box started opening  automatically mostly like an alligator opening its mouth for hunting (The opening of the box looked like the mouth of a crocodile while opened) Reo turned off the current and took the key which is inside the box before the box gets closed automatically, He was still surprised on seeing the key on that key there was the thunder logo along with ………………………………
