Dates became closer to the students to go to the mountain school. Before going to the mountain school again principle sends a message to meet and they knew the reason why she is asking. So, they didn't worry about that.
"Everything is ready,"
After entering to the room principle asked them with a smile. As an answer they only shake their head, and nothing said. She realized that still they didn't like to go to the mountain because of the mountain people's behaviour and their attitudes.
"I still left to say small thing."
She sat down and opened a locker and took a small box.
"I found this one when your kids. These three chains belong to you because it was in your neck when I found you. I have waited until this day. Now this is the time to tell everything for you."
Said head principle while opening the box. They saw three boxes inside when she opens the it. She took another three boxes outside and give it to each of them. There's some name on top of the box. Raki notice these're their own names.
Aruni had a massive curious to know what's inside the box. So first she opens the box. Rangika and Raki also became curious to know what kind of gift she got. After opening the box Aruni found a chain with a pendant. That's not a normal chain. The pendant had a logo. It's looks like a sun and also its shining with orange colour.
"It's very nice."
Aruni felt thrilled, because of that beauty. Raki also thrilled about her friend's gift. Next chance got Rangika, same as Aruni she also received a chain, but pendant is different. On behalf of her pendant has a star with blue colour and edge had a gold colour line. It's became gorgeous than Aruni's pendant.
"It's beautiful more than my one."
"That's true"
Both friends magnify Rangika's chain. Finally, Raki got her chance. Her curious was less than her friends because she knew that she also getting a chain like her friends. Thus, she opens the box without thinking. When she takes the chain, small flash came into her face and from the chain, she felt heat into her hand. In a small time, these all happened, but Raki could realize everything. However, she couldn't explain or understand what's happening. Few minutes she looks into the chain, because she thought that will happen again, but it's not happened again.
"What's in there?"
Rangika break her daydream and ask.
"It has fire and one man. Oh... no there is another man in the back side."
Raki describe her pendant, but she felt that it's not beautiful as her friends' pendant. As well it's totally different from the other two. Because in the pendant those two men are hand in a loop. So Raki could turn those pictures into anywhere.
"Anyway, it's not beautiful. I got the very ugly chain. However, why your give this to us?" Raki said that looking to the head principle. She couldn't understand why they received those gifts.
"Those're belong to you. Before I told you. I found these three chains in your neck. Maybe your parents gave this for your own protection. So, I thought this is the time to give you this." After listening to the head principle, Raki felt that something is missing in her speech, but she couldn't figure out what's that.
"Madam, how you found us?"
Suddenly Aruni got a question to ask her.
"I found you in the hostel door step. First, I found Rangika and then after one-week Aruni. Finally, same as after one week I found Raki. Still, I don't know who did this."
No one satisfied about her answer. They expect more from her.
"I forgot to tell you. After going to the mountain if anyone felt I want to stay there. You have to open this pendant."
"If that so, I'll never going to open this."
Raki quickly said those words and her two friends also agree with her.
"That's all I have to say. Now go and get ready for the mountain school trip. Remember sometimes they are giving holidays to come to city. If you get any chance directly come to me and meet me. If something you found or if you want a clarification, I'll help you. From now you have to wear those three chains because it should be in your neck and don't show this to anyone."
According to their principle's advice three of them wear those chains and hide it from outsiders. After discussion they left the room with lots of questions, but without answers. They work through the passageway gently. Suddenly, Raki standstill middle of the passageway. Her reaction felt suspicions to her friends.
"Why….? What happened?"
"No, I just thought what we got from the principle…..."
"Those three chains."
"Yes…. Yes... I'm trying to say in that pendants have the same logo what we found from the library books. Star, fire and Sun…"
Raki share her idea with her friends, but they frighten after listen to her."
"Don't tell me we have a relationship with those bullshit tribal."
Rangika felt more fear and agree after listening to her friend's idea. She asked that question pointing a finger to Raki.
"I don't know, but why those pendants have that same logo. Why principle said to hide those chains from others. Don't you feel there is a secret hidden in this story?"
Raki said that walking. Her friends haven't anything to say against for her, as what she is saying there is something true. However, they couldn't get that true as a true, since they felt more fright about their own future.
"However, we have to careful in the mountain. What ever happen we must hide this chain. Then everything will be ok."
Finally, Aruni said those words with disappointedly.
"Yeah…. That's all we must do. And, this story only knows three of us. No one doesn't want to know that."
Raki said that after thinking about this situation and both friends agreed with her.
"Yeah, that's a good idea. Otherwise after going to that hell who knows what will happen."
"Let's find out this mystery secretly without knowing others."
Aruni said that words without any panic. Her friends also surprise how she said those words without panic.
"That's a good idea Aruni. We can be more careful. Before they find out, we can find a solution how to protect our self from them."
Raski said those words while smiling. Her smile brought a cheer to her friends. However, they knew the answers for those questions aren't good and very fearful when they face the reality. Raki's smile also just an affection. They never thought to hear like this situation. So that reason, they couldn't believe those words are real to think.
They had three more hours before going to the mountain. So, they came to their own rooms. Luckily three of friends' beds located in one room. They check their bags twice to confirm something they forget to pack. Still, they had few hours. So Raki lay down in her bed and search her pendant closely. When she was with the principle, she only checks the front of the neckless. So now she thought to investigate it very deeply. After looking to that she found something, and her eyes covered with surprise. Without knowing, her legs came down from the bed.
"Hey Aruni...…... Rangika...…. Look...…... This......"
Her friends also surprise that what their friend try to show with her pendent. They couldn't analysis what's going on."
"See this one. In here there is a name. I can read that. Ho.... Shi.... Ka.... Yes, it's Hoshika. Is that a name?"
"Yes, that's a girl name."
"There is another name in this side, but I can't read that."
Let's see is there something in our pendants."
Said Rangika quickly because she also wants to figure this as soon as possible. Aruni also try to search something that she could find.
"Nina,"
"Haru,"
Rangika's pendant had "Nina" and Aruni's pendant had "Haru". Three of them got shocked after finding that.
"If this is a name then those names are our previous names?"
"May be,"
After finding those names they got a proof that they have relationship with a mountain.
"Sometimes this could be only a name."
"May be,"
Aruni and Rangika both felt angry about her friend's word "may be".
"Don't repeat may be may be every time."
Aruni throw a pillow towards Raki.
"What else I want to say. Still, I couldn't figure out what's going on."
After a few minutes later main bell rang very loudly that announcing to those students to get ready to go to mountain school.
"Okay, let's go to the hell."
Raki said that while gritting her teeth.
"That's a good name."
Rangika said that laughing, but three of them felt more and more agree towards their situation.
